Chapter 326: Useless Efforts
U.dted by BXN0VEL.cmTranslator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Zi found herself at a loss for words as she watched her brother and sister-in-law. She believed that children had a right to know about these matters, and she didnt think such issues would cause any distress to their young minds.
Instead, she saw it as a good teaching story. Thus, she took the initiative to tell the children about their grandfathers ordeal that afternoon. Su Bing and Su Li both furrowed their brows, expressing their anger about the incident.
Su Bings gaze was particularly cold. He stared straight ahead, his face devoid of any expression as he said, Mom, Uncle, Aunt, from now on, Lin Jie is my enemy.
His words not only startled Lin Cheng and Li Hua but also made Gu Zi feel uneasy.
Gu Zi remembered the plot from the book. As Su Bing grew up, he became a cold and ruthless man, always seizing the opportunity to retaliate against those who had wronged them. Those people never ended well.
In the book, Su Bing would declare who his enemies were, like the woman from the town who had previously married Su Shen.
Because she had poisoned the two brothers, nearly killing Su Li, she was secretly added to Su Bings revenge plan. The outcome was her death under Su Bings retaliation.
With Su Bings high intelligence, the woman mysteriously died on the street shortly after being released from prison. Her death was a gruesome one.
Although Su Bing did not directly kill her, he was indirectly responsible for her death. Gu Zi clearly remembered the chilling feeling she had when she read this part of the story. It was terrifying.
Suddenly, Gu Zi felt a bit scared. She wondered if Su Bing still harbored such a vengeful heart.
It wasnt that Gu Zi felt the woman didnt deserve punishment, but she didnt want Su Bing to live for hatred. She didnt want him to become a cold-blooded machine with high intelligence.
Moreover, Gu Zi was somewhat afraid. She feared that despite her efforts to provide warmth to the children and change their worldview for a better ending, the original character setting in the book might be unchangeable, and the final outcome might still be inevitable.
Gu Zis mood suddenly became heavy. She absolutely didnt want to see such an outcome, but what could she do?
However, upon hearing the second childs words, Gu Zis mood quickly changed. Su Li was comforting them, saying that he had realized a truth.
Uncle, Aunt, not all relatives are family. Just like us three siblings, our biological mother never treated us well, but we were pampered by Mom Gu Zi. Now I think, blood relations are just a basic definition, but those who treat you well do not necessarily have to be related by blood. Just like us with Grandma Lin, Grandpa Lin and Dad
When Su Li said this, Gu Zi couldnt help but glance at Su Shen.
He was focused on driving, but he also tacitly turned his head to give her a reassuring smile, which was quite bright.
In an instant, Gu Zi understood and felt a wave of shame for the fleeting thought she had just had. She had been contemplating whether or not to continue nurturing these children to alter their destinies, wondering if her efforts would be in vain.
Her judgment had been clouded by the anger she felt about her fathers assault. Why should she worry about events that had not yet occurred?
At least for now, her kindness towards the children was gradually effecting change. Su Lis newfound awareness was proof that their personalities were not immutable.
As for Su Bing, he was a particularly sensitive child, far more so than Su Li. He simply needed more time to adjust his mindset. Regardless of what the future held, Gu Zi felt at peace with the current state of affairs. Wasnt that all that mattered?
She pulled out two pieces of peanut milk candy from her pocket and handed them to Su Bing and Su Li. Her voice was unusually gentle as she said, Thank you, youve comforted us with your care.
Upon seeing this, Lin Cheng and Li Hua also spoke up, Whats done is done. Its enough that you know. Leave the rest to us adults to handle. Su Bing and Su Li accepted the candy and nodded in agreement.
When the car arrived at the Su residence, Gu Zi invited her brother and sister-in-law to have dinner there. After the meal, Su Shen would drive them home.
News of Lin Jies arrest quickly reached his future father-in-laws house in town. Lin Jies fiance was in a state of panic.
However, her father was in a completely different state of mind. Upon hearing that Lin Jie had been taken into custody, he breathed a sigh of relief, believing that his daughter would finally see that Lin Jie was not a man worthy of her trust.
But he hadnt anticipated the depth of his daughters infatuation. She had no sense of right or wrong and even persuaded him to swallow his pride and ask for favors to get Lin Jie out, so as not to delay their wedding..
