Chapter 48: The Woman In White
Old Lady Shen ignored Shen Yu’s displeasure and impatience and continued to speak.
“You may not be able to understand Grandma’s actions today and be angry, but even so, Grandma will still do it.”
“I don’t treat Emi as my accessory.”
Shen Yu raised his head and looked at Old Lady Shen. His hands were tightly clenched as he refuted Old Lady Shen’s words.
Although he wanted Emily to stay by his side at all times, he knew that he could not be so selfish.
“Emi is very smart. I also know that I cannot be so selfish. However, Grandma, this feeling is too uncomfortable.”
In the end, Shen Yu was still a ten-year-old child. Although he was mature, when faced with such a thing, he still did not know what to do.
Old Lady Shen’s eyes could not help but tear up. Shen Yu had really recovered. He had gradually tried to express his emotions.
“Good child. Grandma understands. Since you don’t want Millie to leave you, then you have to work hard to become stronger. Only then can you properly protect Millie.”
Old Lady Shen did not understand whether he could understand these things when she told it to a ten-year-old child. However, the time left for Shen Yu was not very much.
She understood that Shen Yu had been silent for so many years because the people around him had left because of him. Therefore, Shen Yu blamed himself.
If the same thing happened again, she was worried that Shen Yu would directly collapse.
He knew, he knew that he could only protect Emily if he was strong enough. He did not want Emily to leave him like his parents.
Old Lady Shen held Shen Yu in her arms with heartache. She gently stroked Shen Yu’s back and sighed.
She had lost her youngest son that year. Even Shen Yu did not speak anymore. He had nightmares all night. For half a month, Shen Yu did not dare to close his eyes. If Shen Yan had not ordered someone to use sleeping pills… Shen Yu would not have been able to hold on.
Old Lady Shen really did not want to see Shen Yu like that anymore.
Emily did not know what Shen Yu and Old Lady Shen were talking about downstairs. She was still immersed in the teaching video that Butler Shen had found for her.
Emily could not help but see things. She rubbed her eyes and got up to lie on her bed. Soon, she fell into a deep sleep.
“Looking at how excited you are today. Do you really think that you won the last round against your so-called Brother Shen Yu?”
Emily rubbed her eyes in annoyance. She saw that she was on a large grassland. In the middle of the grassland, there was a bottomless tree. At this moment, she was sleeping under the tree.
Emily followed the voice and looked over. She saw a young woman sitting on the treetops. She was dressed in snow-white ancient clothes, swaying her legs.
Fortunately, it was not the first time that Emily had seen her, so she was not frightened.
“I clearly won the last round against my brother,” Emily retorted with a dissatisfied mouth.
The woman in white, on the other hand, laughed wildly. She did not care about her image at all.
“That was your brother playing with you. If you continue to play, it would be very difficult to determine the winner in the end. To put it bluntly, he was not willing to continue playing with you, so it was the best choice to end it early.”
Emily was even more dissatisfied. She crossed her arms and snorted coldly.
“Brother is not the kind of person you’re talking about. I don’t want to talk to you about Brother.”
“A little brat is a little brat. Just a few words and you’re angry.”
The woman in white disappeared from the treetops and instantly appeared beside Emily. She sat next to Emily and poked her little chubby face gently.
“It seems that the Shen family has taken good care of you. Look at your chubby face. It’s quite cute.”
Emily still did not want to pay attention to the woman in white. She turned her back to the woman in white to express her dissatisfaction.
“You little brat. I’m your master after all. Is this how you treat your master?”
The woman in white suddenly appeared in front of Emily. Even though she was used to the unique appearance of the woman in white, Emily was still shocked.
“Can you be more obedient? It’s very scary to keep floating around.”
“I can do whatever I want here. No one can control me.”
“This is my dream. I should be the only one who can make the decision.”
Emily very discontentedly looked at the woman in white, then with some other meaning.
