Chapter 352: Chapter 352: Let’s Go to the Beach for a Two-Day Vacation

“Mommy, have you ever heard the saying, ‘If there’s a stepmother, there’ll be a stepfather?'” Little Baozi grabbed Ye Weiwei’s hand and continued asking.

Ye Weiwei nodded. She hadn’t only heard it, but had seen plenty of examples in life. Not all parents love their children, right? Those two awful parents of hers were textbook examples.

“My daddy is going to turn into a stepfather too.” Little Baozi said as he hugged Ye Weiwei’s waist tightly, leaning his little head against her chest with grievance as he continued, “That Mo Shishi bullies me. She scolds me, hits me, and even said that after marrying Daddy, she’d send me abroad.

She saw bad news about herself on Weibo and told my grandparents that it was me who did it. Mommy, I’m just a kid! How could I do those things? She’s already bullying me now—what am I going to do in the future?”

Little Baozi was crying pitifully, as though Mo Shishi had truly put him through the worst. Ye Weiwei had no reason to doubt Little Baozi’s words. At this moment, she only felt a growing dislike for Mo Shishi—that kind of woman who even bullies children.

“Mommy, I can’t attend their engagement party. I swear, if I go tomorrow, they’ll bully me to death. Could you take me away? Let’s go see the ocean, together with my little sister—we’ll spend two happy, carefree days away. What do you say?” Little Baozi finished speaking and secretly gave the little girl a signal.

The little girl, who instantly grasped her brother’s meaning, softly chimed in, “Mommy, what does the ocean look like?”

She had never seen the sea in her life.

Ye Weiwei noticed her daughter’s anticipation for the ocean. She lowered her gaze to Little Baozi and, seeing the grievance in his eyes, felt her heart soften. She nodded and said, “Alright, we’ll go see the ocean.”

“Then… how about we leave tomorrow morning? We can make it before their engagement party starts.” Little Baozi held on to Ye Weiwei’s hand, excitement gleaming in his eyes.

“Alright!”

The next day, the morning sunlight was bright, and a gentle breeze occasionally blew from the west, lifting both Ye Weiwei’s and the little girl’s mood.

Ye Weiwei had inquired with Lu Zi’an, who said the little girl’s condition made it possible for her to leisurely walk on the beach or even get lightly wet.

The mother and daughter had been chatting about the ocean, their complexion visibly better than usual.

Little Baozi arrived, followed by the flamboyantly dressed Xiao Lingyun.

The mother and daughter were both stunned—they hadn’t expected Xiao Lingyun to show up as well.

Noticing Ye Weiwei’s reaction, Xiao Lingyun immediately turned on her “pity mode.” She grabbed Ye Weiwei’s hand and said pitifully, “Weiwei, I was bullied into coming here too. That little green tea Mo Shishi told my parents I should take the blame for the bad news about her on Weibo. They said because I’ve dated lots of guys, I should spill my own dirt. I refused, so they banned me from attending the engagement party.”

Xiao Lingyun didn’t sound exaggerated at all, and Ye Weiwei, recalling Mo Shishi’s arrogant demeanor, believed her. Looking at Xiao Lingyun with deep sympathy, she sighed, “Lady Xiao, you’ve had it pretty tough too.”

“Yeah, being a little sister-in-law isn’t easy. Hmph! Not that I even want to be hers. So that’s that—I’m taking my little one and tagging along with you guys. Whoever wants to go to that engagement party can go!”

After finishing her rant, Xiao Lingyun coughed lightly and spoke seriously, “Weiwei, you wouldn’t drop me as a friend just because of my brother, would you? I think girls’ friendships shouldn’t be affected by men, even if it’s my brother. Don’t you agree?”

Ye Weiwei agreed wholeheartedly. Her relationship with Xiao Jinghan was one matter, but her friendship with Xiao Lingyun was another.

She couldn’t let a man come between her and her sisterhood.

“Shall we head out together, then?” Ye Weiwei asked with a smile.
