Chapter 56 - Has accepted you!
“Gardenia Blossoms, gardenia blossoms, it’s a faint youth, pure love!”
He Yi walked out of the bedroom and heard the familiar melodies and childlike singing coming from the piano room that had just been set up for Wan Wan yesterday. It was as if she had returned to the first time they met at nine years old.
She staggered and almost fell. She quickly reached out to support herself against the wall to calm her beating heart that was about to jump out of her chest. It was only after she steadied herself that she realized Wan Wan was playing and singing at the same time.
“Gardenia blossoms are so cute. Wave goodbye to Joy and helplessness. Time is like running water that irrigates our youth day and night.”
“Gardenia blossoms are blooming, gardenia blossoms are blooming, like crystal waves blooming in my heart. It’s a faint pure love of youth...”
He Yi’s fingers, which were leaning against the wall, were trembling slightly. She knew that Wan Wan was good at playing the piano, but she did not expect that she could play this song so skillfully. Not only could she play it, but she could also sing it. If it were not for someone who deliberately raised her from a young age, the five-year-old Wan Wan would never have been able to do this.
The person who let Wan Wan learn to play and sing this song must be Chu Tianyi!
Why did he do this?
Even if He Yi was beaten to death, she would never think that he would be unable to forget his old feelings for her. There must be some secret plot behind this, just like how he had tried every possible means to woo her and marry her, but he had just shelved her as a chess piece that he had stolen from the He family and caused He Hanlin’s death.
In that case, what sinister and dirty intentions did Chu Tianyi have for Wan Wan?
He Yi pushed open the door of the piano room. Perhaps it was her pale face that frightened Wan Wan, and the music stopped abruptly.
He Yi staggered to Wan Wan. He Yi controlled the waves in her heart and tried her best to ask calmly, “Who taught you to play this song?”
Wan Wan was a little surprised, but she still answered, “Of course, it’s my piano teacher.”
Ever since she was sensible, she had been practicing the piano. Chu Tianyi had spent a lot of money to hire the best vocal music teacher in Yun City for her.
“I mean...” He Yi’s lips trembled slightly, and her voice was also trembling. “You must have put in a lot of effort to sing this piece so skillfully. Did the piano teacher ask you to practice this piece every day?”
“Oh.” Wan Wan understood and nodded her head. She answered without hesitation, “It was dad who asked me to practice it every day. He likes this piece!”
“...” He Yi slowly sat on the leather sofa next to her and was in a daze.
“Mom.” Wan Wan looked at He Yi who was in a daze. The little girl had her own thoughts. “Are you thinking about Dad?”
“Uh,” He Yi realized what Wan Wan meant. When she understood what Wan Wan meant, she couldn’t help laughing coldly. “Yes! I’m thinking about some of the things he did in the past.”
Wan Wan hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she mustered up her courage. “I think that dad will come to pick us up one day!”
“Huh?” The mother and daughter were not thinking on the same channel.
“Mommy is gentle and beautiful, and auntie Su is vicious and vicious. Why doesn’t daddy love mommy and not auntie Su!” Wan Wan bit her petal-like lips angrily, she asserted, “I think daddy has lost his nature because of the witch’s curse. One day, he will wake up. When he wakes up from the witch’s curse, he will take Wan Wan and mommy home!”
“...” He Yi was dumbfounded. It turned out that the child had these absurd thoughts in her heart. Of course, she knew that Wan Wan’s fantasies would never come true. However, she knew that she had to be careful in the face of the child’s delicate and fragile heart. She even had to be extra careful in every sentence and every word.
“Mom,” Wan Wan asked with longing and anxiety, “Do you think there will be such a day?”
The corner of He Yi’s mouth twitched, and she forced out a smile. She bent down gently and patted the child’s little head lovingly, slowly and gently, and said, “Your idea is very good, but the witch’s magic is too powerful. It will be very difficult for your father to wake up. Why don’t we live a good life? Maybe he will wake up when Wan Wan goes to University. He will be very happy to see Wan Wan go to college. Until then, he’s still obsessed with witches and might do something to hurt you. He wouldn’t care even if the witch killed you. You mustn’t go back before then. Otherwise, when he wakes up and finds that you were killed by the witch, he will be very sad and blame himself. You have to wait until he wakes up before you go back. Do you understand?”
After saying so much, she didn’t know if the child could understand. He Yi was worried.
Unexpectedly, Wan Wan thought about it seriously for a long time and nodded in agreement. “Well, I believe that dad will wake up one day. Can’t let the witch kill him. Otherwise, when dad wakes up, he will be very sad.”
He Yi let out a long sigh. Shortly, Wan Wan wouldn’t make a fuss about going back to look for Chu Tianyi.
Wei Jiameng carried the steaming hot breakfast and leaned into the piano room. She reminded the mother and daughter who were talking, “Hey, it’s time to eat breakfast!”

While eating, He Yi helped Wan Wan with the dishes and she said, “Aunt Wei’s daughter, Ge Ge, is one year younger than you. She is studying at another private kindergarten. You could also turn around and be her companion”
Wan Wan’s hand holding the spoon froze. However, she did not hesitate further when she thought that she could get rid of that naughty crybaby Coco. “Okay.”
She hadn’t expected it to be so smooth. He Yi quickly helped her with another pickled cucumber. She turned to look at Wei Jiameng and instructed, “Tomorrow’s breakfast will be packed in the high-end porridge stall. The standard is 100 yuan per person. I will transfer the monthly breakfast fee to you later!”
Wei Jiameng was stunned. “What! The standard is 100 yuan per person for breakfast!” ‘What would she have to eat? It was too extravagant!’

“It’s a pity that the VIP building is rented out. If I was managing it myself, I couldfind a way to prepare three meals a day for Wan Wan.” He Yi sighed regretfully.
Since the child was growing, she wanted to give the child satisfactory food. She didn’t want her to eat soy milk and deep-fried dough sticks with salted cucumber sticks in the morning.
“Hey, that’s right!” Wei Jiameng thought of something and quickly said, “I just received a summons from the court this morning. The court will be in session in three days!”
He Yi was surprised. “Your divorce from Jiang Peng will be in session so soon!”
The divorce was a sure thing. After all, it was a legal society. If they really couldn’t go on, it was impossible to bind the two together. However, they usually had to wait for half a year before the court session could be held again. Usually, when the court session was reconvened, the dust would be settled.
“Yeah!” Wei Jiameng said with mixed feelings, “I didn’t expect it to be so fast!”
After all, she was married to Jiang Peng for five years, and they had a child. Wei Jiameng couldn’t help feeling anxious when she thought that she was going to become a single mother.
“That’s not right!” He Yi immediately made a judgment. “According to the usual practice, it doesn’t happen so quickly. Maybe... someone helped us secretly!”
Wei Jiameng’s eyes widened, and she came to her senses after a long while. “Old Lady Yi!”
That day, the Yi family’s mother-in-law and He Yi were very happy to see each other. Old Lady Yi even warmly invited her to the Yi family as a guest. Before she left, she told her daughter-in-law, Fang Yaqin, to get the people in the legal world to quickly settle Wei Jiameng’s divorce lawsuit. But after that... there had been no more news.
So, He Yi concluded that the Yi family’s mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had investigated her background and were disgusted by it. She never expected that the Yi family would interfere in Wei Jiameng’s divorce case now.
“Wow.” Wei Jiameng immediately put away her self-pity and her eyes lit up with excitement. “The Yi family is willing to help us with the lawsuit. This means that Old Lady Yi has accepted you!”
