Chapter 14 Xie Zhiyan's Fear on Their Wedding Night

"Just like your good friend Caiyun, who lives next door to us, she also has a father and a mother."

Yangyang tilted his head.

"But don't people say that Yangyang and Yueyue were born from their mother's tummy?"

Shu Ying nodded: "Yes."

"Then what's the use of a father if the child already has a mother?"

“We’ve grown up well with our mother.”

Yueyue nodded in complete agreement.

"Yes, yes, Mom can draw, write, and even heal the sick. She's amazing! What does Dad do? Does Dad also need Mom's care, which is why he lives with her?"

Yueyue pouted.

"Mom works so hard, she has to take care of us and Dad too."

"That's right, that's right!"

The two little ones chattered away, one saying a sentence after the other, their tiny heads filled with big questions.

Shu Ying couldn't help but chuckle.

But since she was about to go to the capital, she wanted to describe to her two children what their father was like as much as possible.

But after thinking about it carefully, in her memory, Xie Zhiyan always seemed to be a serious, quiet person who rarely showed much emotion or big expressions, giving people a somewhat cold feeling.

However, from some perspectives, Xie Zhiyan is also a very responsible person.

That's all Shu Ying can see.

He's like a profound and difficult-to-understand book; she hasn't figured him out yet.

I wonder if he'll like children...

Shu Ying couldn't help but imagine it.

She still felt quite embarrassed when she thought about him.

On their wedding night, they had done so many intimate things, yet they acted almost like strangers.

They barely interacted before marriage, and spent even less time together after marriage.

The only time she ever saw another side of him was on their wedding night in bed.

Although so much time has passed, she remembers some details exceptionally clearly, and even now, thinking about them makes her legs tremble instinctively.

Once the man got into it, he was completely different from his calm and composed self during the day. He was like a different person, ignoring her pleas and attempts to stop him. As if that wasn't enough, he became very fierce.

They continued to argue until dawn the next day before Xie Zhiyan finally released her.

The only thing Shu Ying clearly remembered was that she wanted to take a shower, but as soon as she turned over, her lower back started to ache terribly, and as soon as her feet touched the ground, she started to tremble physiologically.

She was so angry that she couldn't take a shower, so she rolled back onto the bed, and fell asleep the moment her head hit the pillow.

The next day, when she had some energy, the first thing she did was punch him several times with her fists and angrily say things like she hated him.

When she got married in her previous life, she was a pampered young lady who had never experienced hardship.

On her wedding night, she finally understood what it meant to be "bitter and exhausted".

In her previous life, she thought she would only suffer once in her life, but she never expected to go through so much, being separated from her son and watching her daughter die.

Thinking of the hardships she had endured in her previous life, Shu Ying felt that Xie Zhiyan didn't seem so terrible after all.

Moreover, given her current mindset, and the fact that they already have a child, even if she goes to the capital, she probably won't be as affectionate anymore and won't do that kind of thing again...

As she thought about it, Shu Ying felt a surge of heat spread from the skin behind her ears to her cheeks.

She quickly shook her head to clear her mind of all the jumbled thoughts, and cleared her throat in an evasive manner.

Why think so much? Let's get down to business first.

She needs to go to her uncle's house right away.

The two children's thoughts jumped around, and they had already moved from the topic of "Dad" to other issues.

Seeing that they weren't fixated on the issue, Shu Ying smiled and patted their little heads. She went back to her room to change into dark clothes, then searched through the storage cabinet and found a pile of books and toys that she had prepared for the two children before.

Shu Ying placed the items on the long-pile carpet in the bedroom, smiled gently, and bent down to give instructions.

"Yangyang, Yueyue, Mommy has to go out for a bit. You two can stay here and read books and play with your toys for a little while, okay?"

"If there is any problem, you can call Mom anytime, and Mom will come back immediately when she hears you."

Yueyue blinked: "If we call for Mommy, can Mommy hear us?"

Shu Ying paused for a moment, about to explain, when she saw Yangyang smile knowingly.

"Silly Yueyue, Mom is definitely outside, not far from us. Of course she can hear us when we call her, otherwise she wouldn't have told us this!"

Yueyue wrinkled her nose, and Chaoyang stuck out her tongue.

"You naughty Yangyang, I'm not stupid."

The two little ones bickered while picking out the educational toys they wanted to play with.

Huarong Road, Nine Linked Rings, Tangram, Luban Lock...

Yueyue even picked up a small abacus and started calculating rapidly.

From a young age, the two little ones have never shown much interest in the simple, straightforward toys that most children play with; they would play with them for a couple of seconds and then put them aside.

On the contrary, they are particularly fond of these challenging toys. After solving one solution, they want to try another, showing a great love for using their brains.

Especially Yueyue, who showed a keen interest and love for numbers from a very young age.

As I grew older, I happened to see my family using an abacus and immediately fell in love with it.

To this end, Shu Ying specially had someone select a piece of Hetian jade of good quality from the family's storeroom and made a miniature abacus suitable for children to play with.

Yueyue absolutely adores it, often holding onto the abacus and refusing to let go. At such a young age, she's already better at using the abacus than the family's old accountant.

In recent years, Shu Ying has also discovered that in addition to abacus calculation, Yueyue is also very good at mental arithmetic. She can calculate many additions, subtractions, multiplications and divisions at a glance, almost without thinking.

That's quite a talent.

I wonder what kind of career her daughter will choose when she grows up...

Shu Ying thought for a moment and waved to the two children.

"Then Mommy's going out."

While clicking away on the abacus beads, Yueyue didn't forget to wave to Shuying.

Yangyang, holding the nine-linked rings, raised his little face and smiled at Shuying.

"Mom, you go ahead and do your work. We'll stay in our rooms and behave!"

The two little ones grew up in this house and are very familiar with the layout of the rooms. They feel very safe and secure in the house and are not afraid at all, as if they are still in their original home.

Seeing how peaceful they were, Shu Ying felt relieved. She took the key to her uncle's house, smiled, and walked out of the space, returning to the real location where she had entered the space earlier.

There was still no one around. Shu Ying quickly glanced around and took out the bicycle that she had previously stored in the house's storeroom from her spatial storage.

The next second, a typical 28-inch bicycle appeared in front of us.
