The mysterious CEO's endless pampering

Li Shengtian knew that Jiang Meiling disliked Shen Yanran and always tried to make things difficult for her, even urging his son to divorce her more than once.

Of course, none of them were successful.

Moreover, Shen Yanran is now a "meritorious contributor" to the Li family, having given birth to twins, a fortune that many families can only dream of.

Jiang Meiling, however, was still not satisfied and repeatedly caused trouble for Shen Yanran.

In the end, her son grew tired of her and forbade her from visiting her grandson.

Li Shengtian and his wife had advised her countless times to relax, that children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and not to always try to control anyone's life.

Otherwise, you'll be the one who suffers in the end.

I originally thought she had figured things out and that her month-long trip abroad would have given her a more peaceful state of mind.

Who knew that just two days after returning to China, he would cause trouble for Shen Yanran again and even try to snatch her child.

What is this all about!

Li Shengtian said in a calm voice, "Zhan'er, don't worry, your grandma and I will go over there right away to see what's going on."

Sun Mingyan just went to the kitchen to check if the stew was ready, wanting to send it over to her granddaughter-in-law to try.

No sooner had she stepped into the kitchen than she heard her husband calling from outside, "Old woman, come out quickly, we have to go to Yanran's place right away."

Sun Mingyan was unaware of what was happening. "Why are you in such a hurry? My soup isn't ready yet."

As Li Shengtian hurriedly draped a warm coat over Sun Mingyan, he said with a grave expression, "Before the soup was ready, something happened to Yanran!"

"What?" Sun Mingyan suddenly became anxious. "What happened to Yanran? Tell me!"

"I don't know the specifics of what happened. Zhan'er just called me and said that Meiling went to Yanran's place to snatch the child, and told me to go over there quickly."

"Meiling, are you trying to snatch the child?" Sun Mingyan was stunned.

What's going on here now?

The elderly couple didn't have time to think it through and quickly had their driver take them to Shen Yanran's house.

in the apartment.

Jiang Meiling was still at an impasse with Shen Yanran.

"Shen Yanran, this is my last warning to you. Give me the two children and let me take them back to the old house. From now on, I won't care who you want to pity or who you want to bring home."

How could Shen Yanran possibly entrust her own child to someone else to take care of, even if that person was her mother-in-law?

Shen Yanran was truly on the verge of tears. "Mom, I've explained to you so many times that Tongtong is a pitiful child. I'm only taking care of him temporarily. Why are you taking my child away because of this? These are completely different things!"

Jiang Meiling said angrily, "I'm too lazy to waste any more words with you. Are you going to move aside or not? If you don't, don't blame me for being impolite."

As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Meiling rushed over, trying to snatch both children from Shen Yanran's hands.

Fearing that the struggle would hurt the child, Shen Yanran kept shielding him with her body, saying, "Mom, please don't go too far!"

Jiang Meiling knew she couldn't possibly carry both children by herself. She glared at the stunned Aunt Chen and said, "Aunt Chen, what are you standing there for? Come over here and help me snatch the children back, or you'll regret it."

She paid this nanny not just to monitor Shen Yanran, but also because she wanted her to be helpful in crucial moments.

Aunt Chen knew in her heart that she had secretly taken so much money from Jiang Meiling, and if she didn't help her, she might have to take it back.

She had already used all that money to buy a new house for her child, so she couldn't possibly pay it back.

So, gritting his teeth, he joined Jiang Meiling in the effort.

Shen Yanran was quite surprised that Aunt Chen would listen to Jiang Meiling so much.

But she didn't have time to question them; protecting her two children was the most important thing now.

The twins had no idea what was going on and thought the adults were playing a game with them. At first, they were quite happy and made noises, but the more they watched, the more they felt something was wrong.

Every now and then, my tender little arm would get pulled, and it hurt a lot.

The two children, who had always been cherished like treasures, had never seen anything like this before and burst into tears.

As soon as the children started crying, Shen Yanran realized what was happening and tears welled up in her eyes as well. "Stop fighting over them! The children are crying!"

Hearing her grandson cry, Jiang Meiling felt bad, but in order to keep her grandson close to her, she had no choice. "Then why don't you let go and give me your grandson!"

Gu Zitong heard the arguing in the nursery next door getting louder and louder, and soon there was the sound of a baby crying.

He couldn't sit still any longer and ran from his room to the nursery.

He saw Shen Yanran being bullied at a glance, and his eyes immediately reddened. He rushed over, shouting, "Let go of Aunt Yanran! Let her go! I won't allow you to bully her!"

The little chubby thing under my feet was meowing anxiously!

Just as Jiang Meiling was about to catch her precious grandson, a force suddenly rushed from behind and bumped into her.

It's that unwanted brat!

Jiang Meiling turned around and shoved Gu Zitong, who was in her way, aside. "Who do you think you are, daring to push me? Get out of my way, this is none of your business!"

Gu Zitong was still a child and didn't have much strength, so she couldn't stop Jiang Meiling, who had started to go crazy.

Seeing Gu Zitong pushed to the ground, Shen Yanran cried out in distress, "Tongtong!"

Gu Zitong's arm was bumped against the corner of a table, instantly becoming red and swollen, but he didn't care and quickly stood up to continue to stop her, saying, "Let go of Aunt Yanran, let go of her now!"

While Shen Yanran was distracted, Aunt Chen snatched one of the children that Shen Yanran was protecting.

Shen Yanran's heart skipped a beat, and she reached out to snatch the child back, crying, "Aunt Chen! Give me back my child!"

Mrs. Chen immediately grabbed her child and hid to the side, saying, "I'm sorry, madam, I had no choice."

When Jiang Meiling glanced at Chen Sao and saw that she wasn't holding her precious grandson, she continued to fiercely try to snatch the boy that Shen Yanran was tightly holding.

At this moment, Gu Zitong also became fierce. Seeing that she couldn't stop Jiang Meiling, she opened her mouth and bit her hand.

Jiang Meiling cried out in pain, "Ouch, that hurts so much!"

Not to be outdone, the impatient Rou Rou jumped up and started scratching Jiang Meiling.

The room suddenly descended into chaos, filled with cries and meows.

When Song Yue and Wen Qian arrived at Shen Yanran's house, they became even more anxious upon hearing the commotion inside.

Fortunately, Shen Yanran had told Wen Qian the electronic lock's password beforehand. With trembling hands, she entered the password and rushed inside in a hurry.

Song Yue arrived at the source of the sound a step ahead of her.

Upon seeing what was happening inside, he immediately shouted in a deep voice, "Stop! Stop it, all of you!"

The sudden male voice startled Jiang Meiling. After seeing who it was, she didn't give him a friendly look. "Song Yue, what are you doing here? This is a matter for the Li family. It's none of your business to interfere."

Wen Qian, heavily pregnant, followed closely behind and went inside. When she saw Shen Yanran's red eyes from crying, and the two children's red faces from crying, she turned pale with anger.

She walked quickly to Shen Yanran, looking her over nervously. "Yanran, it's alright, I'm here. Don't be afraid."

Shen Yanran wasn't much better off; she was beaten quite a bit for trying to avoid Jiang Meiling's attempts to snatch the child.

But she couldn't care less about the pain in her body. Seeing that someone had finally come to help her, she said anxiously, "Wenqian, quickly help me bring An'an back. She's in Aunt Chen's hands."

Mrs. Chen hadn't expected an outsider to suddenly barge in. She was caught in a dilemma, holding her child, unsure whether to leave or stay.

Wen Qian frowned and glanced at Song Yue. "Honey, go and bring An'an over here."

Song Yue nodded slightly, walked up to Aunt Chen, and said in a low voice, "Give me the child."

Aunt Chen had seen Song Yue a few times at home and knew that he had a good relationship with Li Zhanting and was also a man with an unusual background. She didn't dare to resist and handed the child over.

Then, looking nervous, she explained, "It wasn't that I wanted to take the child; it was Madam Li who made me do it. I'm just a postpartum nanny; I had no choice."

Song Yue had no interest in pursuing the responsibility of the nanny, since the "culprit" behind this incident was Li Zhanting's mother.

Jiang Meiling clutched the spot where Gu Zitong had bitten her, glaring angrily at Song Yue and Wen Qian, "What do you two want to do? What right do you have to interfere in the affairs of the Li family?"

Song Yue frowned and asked in an icy voice, "Family matters? Aunt Li, is your so-called family matter about snatching a child from your own daughter-in-law's house?"

Jiang Meiling didn't think she had done anything wrong at all. "So what if it is, so what if it isn't? You have no idea what happened and have no right to talk to me here."

Song Yue threatened calmly, "I may not be qualified to interfere in the affairs of your Li family, but your son is. He already knows what you, as his mother, have done, so you should think carefully about how to explain it to him."

Jiang Meiling never expected that Li Zhanting would find out about this place so quickly.

She thought she could keep it a secret while he was away on business.

Jiang Meiling tidied her messy hair and put on a righteous look, saying, "What do I have to explain? It's all because of the mess Shen Yanran made. She insisted on bringing an unwanted child back to live with us. What if she gets jealous that my grandson is living a better life than her and tries to hurt him? I'm doing this for the good of the family. This is called taking precautions."

The unwanted child... that must be describing Gu Zitong.

Song Yue had heard from Wen Qian that the child was quite pitiful; his father died in a car accident, his mother abandoned him and ran away, and the government entrusted him to a so-called relative. Not only did he not receive proper care, but he was also constantly abused and almost died...

From the moment he met Shen Yanran, he knew she was a kind and compassionate woman, just like his wife.

Therefore, it's understandable that Shen Yanran would keep Gu Zitong after her ordeal.

But how come it became a different story in Jiang Meiling's mouth?
