Urban drama: Starting from rejecting Fan Shengmei on a blind date

Lucy's father, who didn't want to take care of the children, wanted to shift the blame to Lucy, so he conspired with the nanny to stage a play.

It's nothing more than trying to prove that Lucy's father dislikes the child and that the child is not well received by his father at home, in order to gain Lucy's sympathy and hope that she will take the child to Shanghai to raise.

Unfortunately, Lucy didn't fall for it. From the moment the nanny started telling her the story, Lucy remembered Zhou Chen's words. It seemed that things were really developing as he said, and her father really did collude with outsiders to scheme against her.

"Hello, Aunt Yang, why are you calling me at this hour? Is something wrong with Mianmian?"

"No, your sister Mianmian is fine, but there are some things I still want to talk to you about. Several days have passed since you left, and your father hasn't even given your sister a second glance."

I've asked him to go to the child's room and comfort the child several times, but your father won't even go in. He seems to really dislike the child.

Your father looks gloomy all day at home. It seems your mother's death has greatly affected him. If this continues, things won't be good; he'll break down.

Lucy's father, standing nearby, gestured to the nanny, signaling her to get to the point and stop talking nonsense.

The nanny rolled her eyes at Lucy's father. Women's conversations never go straight to the point; there always has to be some setup first.

“Lucy, I was hired by you to take care of the children, not the adults. This situation has put me in a bit of a bind. Your dad is so listless, like he's lost his soul. How can he take care of the children like this?”

To put it bluntly, while I was washing the baby's diapers, Mianmian cried until her voice was hoarse, and your father didn't even show his face. It was as if he didn't hear anything. In the end, it was your sister who suffered the most.

"Sigh, if you ask me, what man has experience taking care of children? When it comes to patience and attentiveness, it's us women who have to rely on you. I know it's not easy for you out there either, but I think if necessary, it would be best if you brought the child with you to raise him/her."

Hehe, at this moment Lucy's father frowned. Although I asked you to say bad things about me, you can't say such bad things about me. What do you mean by saying that the child's voice was hoarse from crying and I was unmoved? That's going too far.

Even though Lucy's father was being slandered, he didn't say anything. He was waiting for Lucy's response. Everything the nanny said earlier was just a prelude. Lucy's words were the result. The key was whether she was willing to take the child back to Shanghai to raise him.

Lucy was initially heartbroken for her younger sister and was about to lash out at her father when she heard the nanny advising her to take the child to Shanghai to raise. This immediately silenced Lucy.

Lucy thought of Zhou Chen. On the day she returned from her hometown, Zhou Chen had said that her father might conspire with the nanny to scheme against her and then dump the child on her so that he could have an easy life.

The situation seems to be developing in the direction Zhou Chen predicted. Could they be plotting against him now?

Lucy quickly came up with an idea. Of course, she couldn't let the other party have her way, so Lucy retorted, "Aunt Yang, tell my dad to ask him who made my mom pregnant with her second child when she was over fifty."

My mother lost her life to give birth to this child, and now he doesn't care about the child at all. How can he face my mother?

If he's incapable of raising a child, why did he bring one into the world? Now he's thinking of me? Has he considered my difficulties?

Lucy deliberately questioned them, her purpose, of course, was to test their reaction.

As expected, seeing the anger in Lucy's words, the nanny immediately glanced at Lucy's father next to her, and then continued to coax her, "Lucy, your dad went out and isn't home."

What I said just now was merely a suggestion; you don't need to be so angry. Your father never said he wanted to hand the child over to you. I was just thinking this because I feel sorry for the child.

I made this call behind your dad's back. He'll be furious if he finds out. Just pretend I didn't say anything.

Oh dear, your sister seems to be awake. I'll go check on her. We can keep in touch later if anything comes up.

The nanny hung up the phone after speaking, then looked at Lucy's father and said irritably, "Your daughter is very shrewd. You can't hide anything from her. She seems to have a lot of resentment towards you. It looks like your plan has failed."

To everyone's surprise, Lucy's father shook his head. It was too early to talk about failure. He knew his daughter well; the phone call he had just made would definitely stir up trouble in Lucy's heart, and she would feel uneasy.

"Don't worry, in my opinion, things were handled very successfully. Nothing is accomplished overnight."

For the next period of time, you called me every two days, saying the most outrageous things about me, trying to arouse my daughter's sympathy.

I'm confident she'll come back on her own without me even having to say a word. Just you wait and see.

Lucy's father spoke with great confidence, and the nanny did not refute him but simply nodded.

Since you've put it that way, of course I'll cooperate. It's just a matter of making a few phone calls.

Back home, Lucy told Zhou Chen about the nanny's phone call and then asked for his opinion.

"Zhou Chen, it hasn't even been a week yet, and my dad has already started making his moves. You really guessed right."

Perhaps the nanny wasn't lying; my dad might really dislike my little sister. Given his attitude, I'm really worried about the little one having her raised by him.

But bringing my sister back would just do what my father wanted; clearly, he doesn't want to take responsibility, and this is not the scene I want to see.

But if I ignore what my sister says, I'm afraid she'll suffer. What should I do?

Without any hesitation, Zhou Chen stated, "No matter what conflict you have with your father, this child is innocent. Your father's behavior of using this child as a bargaining chip is truly outrageous. Just as you said, he is shirking responsibility."

Furthermore, your mother's last words were that you should take care of your sister. From any perspective, you can't just ignore her. I support you in bringing the child over, and we can raise her together.

That's not what I'm more worried about right now, Lucy. Let me say something harsh again: is there another reason why your dad is so eager to get rid of the child's troubles?

For example, if he wants to remarry, the child would be a huge burden, and of course he would want to dump the child on you.

If that really happens, you should probably prepare to have a falling out with your father.

Lucy was stunned by Zhou Chen's words. Although her father was a scoundrel, he wouldn't be so shameless. Zhou Chen's guess was really off the mark.

Haha, I'm just giving you a heads-up based on how the story unfolds. Just because you think something is impossible doesn't mean it won't happen. Maybe you'll only truly see your father's true character when it does.

"Please, that's my dad! Is he really such a shameless person in your eyes?"

If my dad really did something like that, he would be letting my mom down, and I would never forgive him.

As for going back to my hometown to pick up my sister, I need to think about it some more. I want to see what other tricks they can pull, and whether they are as shameless as you say.

At this moment, Lucy doubted Zhou Chen's words. After all, her mother had just passed away less than a week ago, and the idea that her father was going to remarry at this time sounded a bit too far-fetched.

“Lucy, I support whatever decision you make. Since you want to wait a while to see how they are doing, let’s take some time to prepare some baby supplies, and maybe even find a nanny in advance.”

Like I said before, if your nanny really is colluding with your father, then that nanny is unacceptable. I will find someone I know well to take care of the child, so you can rest assured about that.

Lucy nodded in agreement. She cared more about her father than the nanny. With enough money, she could find any kind of nanny, so there was no need to argue with Zhou Chen.
