Chapter 300 - She Was the Highlight of His Life (9)
Chapter 300: She Was the Highlight of His Life (9)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After finishing her sentence, Mother Shi stood up and walked toward the door.
The condominium that they were living in was purchased by Shi Jinyan. It had three rooms and two living areas, a very common layout adopted in many apartments. The dining room was separated from the entrance by a corner.
Si Jingyu heard her mother-in-law’s footsteps and the sound of her opening the door. Then, she heard Bai Yue calling out, “Auntie.”
There was a hint of cajoling in her gentle voice.
Mother Shi scoffed. Her tone was full of disgust. “How could you be so brazen as to…”
Before she could finish speaking, she stopped abruptly.
It was as though the world had fallen silent. It was absolutely silent at the entrance to the apartment. A minute passed before Si Jingyu heard the shuffling of footsteps as a few people walked over. So she swiveled her head and gazed over to the corner.
She first saw Mother Shi, her face glowing with a strange expression.
Then, Bai Yue appeared from around the corner. She gazed at Si Jingyu determinedly, a sweet and harmonious smile on her face.
Si Jingyu furrowed her brows. Just as she was wondering why Mother Shi had let her enter the apartment, a small figure suddenly appeared from around the corner!
She lowered her head and saw a boy, who looked to be about three to four years of age, standing there. The boy saw Shi Jinyan and yelled, “Dad!”
Then, he grasped Bai Yue’s hand.
Dad?!
That sound was like a sudden clap of thunder that rang just beside Si Jingyu’s ears. She felt like her entire being was enshrouded in fog.
It seemed as though Bai Yue had not noticed Si Jingyu’s stunned expression. She smiled and said, “It’s his grandma’s birthday today. I thought that he should pay his respects at the very least.”
After she finished speaking, Bai Yue poked the boy’s shoulders. “Hurry up and pay respects to your grandmother.”
The boy immediately smiled. His smile looked exactly like the miniature version of Shi Jinyan’s smile. His child-like voice rang out as he addressed Mother Shi, “Hi, Grandma! May your happiness be as immense as the East Sea, and may you live as long as the Zhongnan Mountains!”
He looked at Father Shi. “Hi, Grandpa!”
After saying this, he retrieved a gleaming bangle made of white gold from his backpack as though he was a little elf. He handed it over to Mother Shi, saying, “Grandma, this is my present! You have to accept it!”
His childish voice was pleasing to the ears. The entire atmosphere seemed to grow brighter just because of this pleasant-sounding voice!
Si Jingyu’s eyes narrowed and she stood up loudly. She scrutinized the little boy, who seemed somewhat similar to Shi Jinyan. Her fingers loosened, and the soup spoon in her hands fell to the ground with a “bam.” The soup spoon shattered into tiny pieces, and those minute pieces of porcelain seemed to be piercing into her heart, making her feel so much pain that she felt as though she was about to stop breathing.
Her chest heaving vigorously and her neck stiffening, she glanced toward Shi Jinyan.
Shock was evident on his features, as though he had never thought that Bai Yue would bring his child here. But… that child was calling him Dad, and he didn’t deny that!
Si Jingyu suddenly clenched her fist.
Yes.
Her Student Leader Shi Jinyan had always been a responsible person. She had liked him all those years ago because of this trait of his.
So she had always been suspicious of why he had turned his back on their marriage. So… the reason why he couldn’t break away from Bai Yue… was because of this child!
Child…
That word suddenly made her realize something. Her heart clenched violently, and she staggered toward the door in a daze.
Just as she reached the entrance to the apartment, someone caught hold of her arm.
She turned back and saw Shi Jinyan regarding her seriously. His voice quavering, he said, “Jingyu… we’ve only been married for two years. This child was a result of something that had happened before… I didn’t know of his existence either, I…”
