  Amid his mother’s dumbfoundedness, the boy started to grumble, “Mommy, I don’t understand how you could be so courteous to her still. A b*tch like her—”


  He stopped suddenly, covered his mouth with his hand upon his realization of his poor manners, and hastily apologized, “Oh, this won’t do! I mustn’t swear; I have to be prim and proper.”


  “Pfft!”


  The woman burst out laughing.

  “What’s so funny?” The boy gave his mother a scornful look.

  Yun Shishi could not suppress her curiosity. “What did you want to say?”


  “What I wanted to say is, you should be rough with a bad woman like her! There’s no need to be merciful at all,” replied the lad.

  “Eh, I’ll remember that!” She could not help caressing her son’s small head as she smiled at him indulgently. “Youyou, you’re really my knight in shining armor.”


  “That goes without saying! Of course, I’m your knight in shining armor.” Cocking a brow, the lad felt smug. “I’m the first to disallow anyone who tries to bully you.”


  “Still, how did you learn about the Rong family’s demise?”


  The boy snorted. “It’s easy to find that kinda information with a simple check.”


  “I was still wondering why she’s adamant on pestering us, so it turned out that she’s doing it for her family.”


  Her son replied, “No powers are big enough to save that family, nor do I want to be implicated in their mess. The Rongs are struggling to hold on, hoping for a silver lining, but it’s all in vain. It isn’t going to get better for them! Sooner or later, the family will declare bankruptcy.”


  She listened in confusion; all she knew was that the Rongs were sinking and without hope!

  “Mommy, don’t let a bad woman spoil your mood. You’re out to have fun and be happy. C’mon and give me a smile!”


  The mother-son pair looked at each other and smiled. The woman, especially, broke into a charming and moving smile when she heard her son’s words, her eyes arching merrily.

  When they arrived at the location, Yun Shishi got out of the car with Youyou in her arms. The man walked over to them for apparent reason. The other woman had already called him to complain, but he did not blame his younger son and, instead, smiled dotingly at him.

  “What exactly happened earlier?”


  The younger boy was the first to stand up and righteously accused, “That bad woman bullied mommy; I couldn’t stand it, so I asked someone to throw her out of the car!”


  His father narrowed his eyes and stared penetratingly at him. Just when he thought that his father would scold him, he saw the man smile warmly at him, instead, and heard him say with relief, “Well done!”


  Standing at the side, his older brother laughed. Trying to hold back his guffaw, he asked, “Earlier, in the car, that bad woman called daddy and complained that mommy had bullied her. Mommy, do you know what daddy said?”


  “Hmm? What did he say?” The woman glanced at her husband and was rather curious on how the man expressed his stand at that time.

  Her older son supplied, “Daddy told her that she deserved it! Hahaha!”


  Youyou nodded approvingly and praised his father in a serious voice, “Daddy did well!”


  His sibling gleefully described the scene he observed while dancing around, “Did you know how much that woman had cried over the phone? It’s enough to shake the heavens and earth! In my heart, I was thinking that she deserved it! She deserved to be thrown out of the car because she bullied mommy!”


  He could not help teasing his brother, “Mu Yichen, you’ve grown up finally. The idioms are rolling off your tongue!”


  His brother blinked at him mischievously and replied, “Yes! I’ve been well trained by you!”


  Their mother had to cover her face in shame.
