Chapter 8: Chapter 8; Yuxi, do you like this place?

    There was a small, wobbling, tiny table where she had put her clothes, probably all the clothes she had that he could count and didn''t seem to get to the total number of five. He didn''t like this sight at all. Even the servants don''t stay in such kind of a room, how could they treat her like this?

    The floors slightly looked dampened, and there were no windows or ventilation whatsoever. He didn''t know who he should blame apart from himself for bringing her over from the village. He was the fault one.

    Her life in the Orphanage was a hundred times better than what he was seeing here! Was she even receiving a proper meal? No wonder her body frame was so tiny.

    "Uncle...." Zhou Yuxi truly didn''t know how to explain this current situation; she had truly accepted anything just to fit into this family, but her living conditions were way too bad and saddening.

    Her voice was so soft and endearing like an understanding baby she was! Her voice sounded happy and she didn''t blame her mother at all.

    Mu Shuang felt like giving her a rough slap across her face, what was she even saying? Was she trying to drag her into all this mess?

    "Uncle, don''t believe in whatever she says! It''s her who made that decision!" A boy who was older than Zhou Yuxi spoke up seeing his mother was being blamed for the error she didn''t commit! This was all Zhou Yuxi''s fault!

    He had just finished speaking when Mu Yunchen roughly kicked him away, and they all moved away from the door, creating a space for him to walk out, out of fear. He strode over to the living room and sat down on the couch while he let Zhou Yuxi, who was wrapped up entirely with a blanket, sit on his lap.

    "I didn''t ask you to talk and whenever I''m conversing with a grown person, don''t interfere with our conversation... Mu Shuang, I didn''t think you could be this kind of a woman with a lack of morality! Why was she left at school all alone? This family doesn''t have a family car? Or did the car break down? Or it''s money you don''t have to fuel the car?" He roughly banged on the table, and they knew it was gonna be messy if they didn''t apologize.
