“Okay!” Yan Niannian nodded.

He was still just a child, and she couldn't bring herself to refuse him.

Reaching out, Yan Niannian removed the bow from the top.

Then, under the expectant gazes of Zhuo Yuchen and his son Zhuo Xuan, the gift box was opened, and the painting was slowly pulled out...

"what!"

Unexpectedly, just as the painting was pulled away, a passerby nearby gasped in surprise.

The man instinctively covered his mouth and took two steps back in a panic.

Then he looked up, staring incredulously at Yan Niannian, and then at Zhuo Yuchen and his son.

At last……

Shocked gazes fell upon the horrifying painting.

God!

It's really terrible.

Are these three people some kind of psychopath?

The thought sent a chill down the passerby's spine. He dared not linger any longer and quickly turned and hurried away.

In comparison, Yan Niannian was relatively calm.

Her pupils dilated sharply.

Looking down at the painting, which was stained with blood, he was momentarily stunned.

Immediately, my heart clenched tightly.

Stifling.

It's hard to breathe through.

Even with the warm sunlight shining on her, Yan Niannian felt no warmth at all.

Zhuo Xuan was stunned.

He raised his hand in disbelief and rubbed his eyes vigorously.

Then, open your eyes wide and look carefully.

It's not... my imagination!

How could this be?

Zhuo Xuan immediately became anxious. He wanted to rush to Yan Niannian's side and get a good look at her.

But who knows...

The next moment, just as he was about to move, Zhuo Xuan was grabbed by the collar by Zhuo Yuchen.

He pulled him back sharply.

Suddenly, Zhuo Xuan stumbled and almost flew out of the air.

"dad……"

Zhuo Xuan was dumbfounded, his heart skipped a beat, and he stared in horror at Zhuo Yuchen, whose face was ashen.

He looked terrifying at that moment.

His cold gaze seemed to be coated with a thin layer of ice, sending chills down one's spine.

"Zhuo Xuan!" Zhuo Yuchen roared, "What have you done?"

"what?"

"Is this the gift you gave to your mother?"

"You have let me down too much."

"With your character, you are not worthy of being a descendant of the Zhuo family."

Seeing that Yan Niannian had been hurt, Zhuo Yuchen was quite agitated and reprimanded her harshly.

So much so that when he released Zhuo Xuan, Zhuo Xuan's face was deathly pale, and his small figure swayed precariously. He couldn't hold on any longer and fell directly to the ground.

The stone grazed my palm.

The pain was so intense that tears streamed down his face.

"Mother……"

Zhuo Xuan raised his head, looking aggrieved and pleadingly at Yan Niannian.

If Dad doesn't believe him, what about Mom?

Even when she herself suffered injustice, her mother couldn't bear to see him sad.

She loved him the most.

Therefore, Mom will believe him.

She would definitely rush over, tenderly help him up from the ground, and then hug him tightly to comfort him.

Yan Niannian raised her head.

only……

Her gaze was cold, and it didn't stir the slightest emotion in Zhuo Xuan.

It has no warmth whatsoever.

The way they looked at it... was like they were looking at an insignificant stranger.

His pupils dilated sharply; now, Zhuo Xuan was completely panicked.

"Mom, it's not like that, let me explain..."

He was afraid his mother wouldn't want him anymore.

However, Yan Niannian's only response to him was her cold and unwavering action.

She grasped both ends of the painting with her hands.

Stab it!

Under Zhuo Xuan's dumbfounded gaze, he tore the painting in half.

Then, like throwing away trash, they casually tossed it on the ground.

With a slight, self-deprecating smile, Yan Niannian curled her lips.

ridiculous!

How ridiculous!

Last time, Zhuo Xuan suddenly came to the orphanage to apologize to her for some unknown reason.

At that time, she thought Zhuo Xuan had changed his gender.

After all, he is still a child.

If we can truly guide his mindset onto the right path, it might not be impossible to forgive him.

In the end, it turned out that she was the only one who was ridiculous.

Zhuo Xuan had always disliked her and kept complaining that he wanted to find a new mother.

A better new mother than her...

This whole mess today must be because of this!

He was afraid that she and Zhuo Yuchen would get closer again, and what if that affected his wish to find a new mother he liked?

Thinking of this, Yan Niannian gave a cold laugh and spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Zhuo Xuan, you don't need to do these disgusting things."

"real!"

"No need!"

"Because... after leaving the Zhuo family and leaving you, I never wanted to have anything to do with you two, father and son."

"Do you understand now?"

After saying that, Yan Niannian turned and left.

As she walked, she couldn't help but gently shake her head.

Ah!

climb mountains?

How could I have agreed to such a ridiculous suggestion?

If you miss it, you miss it.

That's it!

The regrets of my past self can never be made up for.

"What?" Zhuo Yuchen's pupils dilated sharply.

Yan Niannian spoke these words lightly, but to him they were like heavy hammer blows, striking his heart one after another.

Zhuo Yuchen panicked immediately.

He got angry and decided not to talk to her anymore.

How can that be done?

Ignoring Zhuo Xuan who had fallen to the ground, Zhuo Yuchen chased after him and grabbed Yan Niannian's hand.

Yan Niannian's steps were forced to halt.

"Zhuo Yuchen, let go!" Feeling impatient, Yan Niannian frowned and gave Zhuo Yuchen a cold look.

"No!" Zhuo Yuchen shook his head.

Ignoring the curious stares of others, Zhuo Yuchen, who was nearly 1.9 meters tall, was slightly bent over.

"Niannian, don't go..."

“I really didn’t know Zhuo Xuan would do such a thing. It’s my fault for not teaching him well.”

"Don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation for this."

"I will definitely keep a closer eye on this child from now on."

"enough!"

Yan Niannian interrupted him with a stern face.

"The child is yours, how you discipline him is your business, you don't need to tell me."

As she said this, Yan Niannian subconsciously glanced at Zhuo Xuan, who was sitting on the ground.

His eyes were cold.

That's like looking at someone else's insignificant child.

"No! Mom, that's not true, I really didn't draw it..."

Meeting that gaze, Zhuo Xuan's eyes were like beads that had broken from a string, falling uncontrollably one after another.

The front of his shirt was soaked with sweat.

The fear of abandonment reached its peak at this moment.

He wanted to explain to his mother.

Unfortunately……

The sob was very soft, and with a gust of wind, it completely dissipated among the branches of the mountain.

Yan Niannian glanced at it briefly before looking away.

She looked at Zhuo Yuchen again.

"Zhuo Yuchen, aren't you annoying?"

"If you want to climb a mountain, go find someone else. Stop bothering me, you hear me?"

"Let me go!"

While scolding her, Yan Niannian struggled.

She wanted to shake off Zhuo Yuchen's hand.

However, Zhuo Yuchen's large hand was like a pair of pliers, determined to hold her tightly.

"No, Niannian, I won't let go."

"Please give me a chance to explain."

At this moment, Zhuo Yuchen softened his tone and became somewhat humble.

The more he pestered her, the more annoyed Yan Niannian became.

But she couldn't break free.
