Chapter 279: Past

The teacher behind him froze for a while.

At the time, Yun Yecheng was still a successful businessman and had some prestige among the local neighbors. So, the teacher kindly reminded him: “Mr. Yun, do you fancy this kid? This child, both teachers, and kids don’t like her. She seems to have a mental problem and she gets scared of the people. She doesn’t like to talk, she’s always gloomy, she’s like an omen. Moreover, before, she stole something from another young girl, so the kids are treating her coldly.”

“Stole something?” Yun Liqin frowned,  then immediately said, “Stealing is not acceptable. How can she have such a bad habit! Yecheng, don’t waste your time, let’s go to see other children… …”

“You, stop talking.” Yun Yecheng stops Yun Liqin and felt dissatisfied with the teacher:  “Now that they are still young, children only have goodness in their heart. The concept of honor and disgrace haven’t stuck inside their mind. Even if they made a mistake, as a teacher, isn’t it your job to guide them on the right track? You see, this kid was being bullied up to this extent. Do you think she won’t have a mental problem in this kind of situation? The children are bullying her. The teacher doesn’t care. She was so small. What do you think this child can do?” 

The teacher was stunned by his righteous words. He then immediately brought out Shishi.

Yun Yecheng stands in front of the child and looked at her with a kind face. However, Shishi was still scared, she shrank herself in the corner and trembled.

“I’m not a thief… I’m not a thief… Don’t catch me…”

Yun Yecheng did not know the story behind it, but his heart felt in pain.

And even though he knew very well that there is no connection between them. Just by looking at the child’s fragile appearance, he couldn’t breathe in distressed.

As a result, even if Yun Liqin was so against it, he still adopted her.

Looking back now, Yun Shishi was still grateful.

In her childhood life that only darkness exist, Yun Yecheng gave her a second life. If someone else adopted her, she doesn’t know what her life would be.

Regardless of how Yun Liqin and Yun Na treated her. She will always be grateful to  Yun Yecheng.

Yun Yecheng was silent for a long time, then suddenly, he slowly said: “I decided to divorce her. Tomorrow, we will go to the office of the registry.”

Naturally, he was referring to Yun Liqin.

When Yun Shishi heard his words, she was somewhat surprised.

Divorce?

Father and Yun Liqin will divorce?

Yun Shishi let Yun Yecheng say more, but he only looked at him in silence. After a hesitating for a while, Yun Shishi speaks out her mind.

“Dad, I support your decision. Its wise of you to divorce her.”

“I know.”

“I know that marriage will only survive with perseverance. But, Liqin is too greedy and lazy for you. She will only drag you down. Dad, why do you need to tire yourself for them?”

“Yes, I’m tired, I’m old, I don’t care anymore.”

For a man in his age, he has already passed the prime of his life. He is not actually planning to divorce, but who said they could speak ugly words and dirty actions.

Additionally, he is not willing to involve this daughter.

“Actually, it was for you, Dad feel so ashamed. I didn’t even know that she was the one who forced you to do that six years ago… … I am blind!”

Yun Yecheng said while stamping his feet on the ground.

Yun Shishi immediately stops him, then said: “Dad, those things are in the past now, no need to mention it!”

  1. Her father did help her to get out of the orphanage but he brought her home to Hell. How could a child grow up in his home without him knowing about the abuse.

    Thank you for this update

    1. He might have brought her to hell….but he indeed dearly loved her as his own daughter….and supported her

    2. There are diff types of abuse, maybe she was not physically abuse but mentally or psychologically which is hard to know unless the child herself tell it.
      Any changes in her behavior could be interpreted for as a sudden change of environment plus Shishi was acting obedient in front of her father so I don’t blame him for not knowing.
      Plus she does not want to add any burden to her father as she was already grateful for getting her out of the orphanage and she could feel that her father’s love was genuine.

  2. Bersyukur ayah angkatnya sudah mengetahui watak istri dan anaknya yang hanya memanfaatkan anak tirinya.
    Terimakasih atas bab ini.
