Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
At home, the boy was treated like a fragile, breakable, dissolvable treasure. He could do whatever he wanted and no one would say anything to him.
In the end, Ming Li couldn’t help herself. “Didn’t he just take a couple of tangerines?” she said. “What of it? He is still a child who doesn’t know any better.”
Madame Ruan’s face was cold. “My words are for the sake of the child. You are the elders, so you should reprimand him if he does anything wrong. That way, he won’t go down the wrong path when he grows up!”
Seeing that Madame Ruan’s face was cold and that her tone was obviously unhappy, Ming Li lowered her eyes and stopped talking.
Second Ruan Aunt’s eyes flashed darkly. She grabbed the three tangerines and placed them in the boy’s hand and then pushed him in front of Ling Tianya. “Precious child, let’s return the tangerines to Small Aunty and not make Grandmother angry.”
Madame Ruan was even more annoyed as she watched Second Ruan Aunt’s eccentric behavior. She glared at Wang Yazhi, her expression dark. Why did she have to invite these people over?
Wang Yazhi’s expression was one of someone who was wronged. How was she to know that it would turn out like this? Didn’t they usually get along well? Why the sudden change in behavior?
The boy held the tangerines tightly, his face harsh and unreasonable. “I won’t give them back! All of these are mine!”
“Precious child, be obedient,” Second Ruan Aunt said.
“No!” The child glared at Ling Tianya. “Everything is precious child’s. All of the tangerines are precious child’s. The swimming pool outside is also precious child’s. This entire mansion is precious child’s! I want to kick all of you guys out! Kick everyone out!”
Silence fell on the room.
No one would have thought that the boy would say something like that. Second Ruan Aunt and Ming Li were dumbfounded. They jaws dropped, and they did not know what to say. The boy’s words were so shocking that they didn’t have a clue how to react.
The precious child pointed to Ling Tianya’s stomach. “I don’t like Small Aunty. I don’t like the child in Small Aunty’s stomach either. I want to kick them all out! Then, only I will be able to eat the cake made by the French Chef!”
Second Ruan Aunt finally responded and, embarrassed, quickly said, “This child doesn’t understand anything. He is too young and is talking nonsense. Mom, Aunty, Nephew’s Aunt. Please don’t take it seriously. Children’s words carry no harm. Children’s words carry no harm!”
“Children’s words carry no harm?” Madame Ruan coldly snorted and glared at Second Ruan Aunt. “Exactly, children’s words carry no harm, so why is he saying that someone else’s house is his own house? If no adult told him, then why would he say something like that?”
Second Ruan Aunt shook her head. Ming Li also shook her head, “Great grandmother, in all honesty, we definitely did not teach precious child’s those words. Even if we had twice the courage, we wouldn’t dare!”
“Yes, Great grandmother. You must believe my mother-in-law and I. We really didn’t teach him that! We are also confused as to why the precious child would say these words. Maybe it’s because he likes the mansion too much. When he heard that we were coming here, he was overjoyed. It must be that. The child loves this place too much and therefore, he treats it as his own home. Children’s words carry no harm!”
At this moment, Second Ruan Aunt and Ming Li could not bear to stay any longer and wanted to leave as quickly as possible. If they had known that this would happen, then, they wouldn’t have come. Now they had angered the old lady, and they would be told off when they got home.
However, they were puzzled as to why the precious child would say something like that.
“Quickly, precious child, return the tangerine to Small Aunty. Let’s go.” Second Ruan Aunt said and went to take the tangerines from the precious child’s hands.
Ling Tianya looked at the three smashed tangerines. She had lost her appetite. Plus, she had not planned to argue with the child. At worse, she would just peel another one. However, the boy’s words had definitely given her something to think about.
