Chapter 29: Mama’s Girl 12

Ren Xin obediently rested her head on Mrs. Zheng’s shoulder. “Mom, do you have something on your mind? Tell me, I’ll analyze it for you. After all, I’m so mature~”

Zheng Xiujuan was a little embarrassed, hesitantly asking Ren Xin for her opinion, “Last night, I went out for dinner with your Uncle Ren, and he…”

“He shamelessly confessed?” Ren Xin was startled, sitting up straight on the sofa and loudly exclaiming like a frightened little chick.

Zheng Xiujuan shyly nodded.

“This wolf of a man, how dare he take advantage of every opportunity…”

Zheng Xiujuan wasn’t sure how to bring it up. She wasn’t certain about her daughter’s feelings toward Ren Yi. After all, it hadn’t been long since her divorce, and she was worried Ren Xin wouldn’t accept it.

She herself wasn’t sure of her feelings either. After her death in her past life, seeing the misery of her daughter, she was utterly disappointed in Ren Pengfei. This time, though, she decided to divorce him decisively. Even though that scumbag still had his doting wife and child, she hated him, but felt helpless.

Ren Yi’s appearance was just so timely. He appeared right when she didn’t know what to do, without any warning.

It wasn’t about love, and it wasn’t about anything else. She just felt that he was someone she could rely on, even if it was for a short while…

Ren Xin seemed to read Zheng Xiujuan’s thoughts and casually said, “It’s fine, Mom. You can just think of Ren Yi as someone helping you out. If you like him, keep in touch; if not, move on to the next one. Mom, aside from being my mom, you’re still yourself. You have the right to live the life you want. I won’t be a burden to you, I’ll be your sail, supporting you to sail wherever you want~”

Hearing this, Zheng Xiujuan raised her hand as if to scold Ren Xin, “You naughty child, watch your words! You’re still so young, don’t say everything that comes to your mind. I’m still hesitating. After all, your dad and I once loved each other, it’s just that things have turned out this way. I’m just scared.”

“Mom, don’t be scared. Just think of Ren Yi as a friend accompanying you for a while. Enjoy his love and care without any burden. Plus, I think his genes are good. His parents are both highly educated, so the child should be great too. Just think of it as using him to have a baby for me. Give me a little brother or sister. They’ll be successful in the future, and we’ll win without lifting a finger… no need to struggle anymore…” Ren Xin increasingly felt this was a great idea and thought about urging her mom to go to the wedding bed immediately.

Zheng Xiujuan was stunned, then angrily reached out to pinch Ren Xin, “Stop talking nonsense! Ren Xin, you’re being outrageous. Looks like I’ve given you too much free time, letting you watch all sorts of nonsense. I’ll make some inquiries and sign you up for more classes so you don’t waste your time with this kind of talk.”

Ren Xin was dumbfounded. Her mom’s apparent lack of love for her was now fully realized.

Ren Xin’s support was the strongest backing for Zheng Xiujuan, and she was willing to give it another try for herself.

But things were more complicated on Ren Pengfei’s side. Perhaps Ren Xin’s words had some effect, but the Mistress was now pushing him to have another child every day.

“My safe period just ended, hurry home tonight!”

Ren Pengfei irritably replied, “Are you done yet? Our child is already this big, and you’re still thinking about having another? Do you know how much it costs to raise a child these days? Our child is such a good kid, just focus on him. Once he succeeds, that’s enough. Don’t be influenced by Ren Xin; she just loves to stir up trouble.”

Ren Sifan quietly ate his breakfast, not daring to voice an opinion. Since the last time he did something foolish by inviting Ren Xin to attend Grandpa’s birthday banquet, his family had been upset with him.

He ignored his arguing parents, grabbed his school bag, muttered softly, “I’m going to school,” and walked out the door.

This family was becoming increasingly suffocating.
