Chapter 37
Not to mention the two children, even Su Binglan wanted to slap her predecessor a few times. How could her predecessor treat two cute children like that?
Su Binglan felt sorry for them. She liked children and thought they were innocent and cute. But after what her predecessor had done, she couldn’t get close to the two children now as she would only scare them. Su Binglan knew she could not rush things if she wanted to build a good relationship with them.
Seeing Su Binglan standing there awkwardly, Luo Jin’an walked over and helped her with the basket. Then she walked to Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai and ruffled their hair.
They were not afraid when they saw Luo Jin’an approach them. There was even a hint of admiration in their eyes.
They said respectfully, “Hello, Uncle Jin’an.”
Luo Jin’an smiled elegantly and said, “Good boys. Have you two been eating well and studying hard recently?”
“Yes, we have. Just as you have told us to, we’ve been studying every day.”
“Yes, we’ve been eating well. We’ve missed you, Uncle Jin’an.”
Luo Jin’an’s expression became gentle. “Good boys.”
“Your aunt was not feeling well before. She’s different now. Don’t be afraid of her. She’ll make you some good food.”
Su Binglan blinked, wondering if she had misheard. She hadn’t expected Luo Jin’an to speak up for her.
Luo Jin’an had such a good relationship with these two children. He must like children very much. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so patient with them.
When Luo Jin’an looked at them, a warmth filled his eyes. It was a part of Luo Jin’an that Su Binglan had never seen before. It turned out that he was capable of such gentleness.
Su Binglan hurriedly revealed a kind smile and said, “I was wrong in the past. Since I can learn from my mistakes, you can surely learn to forgive me, yes?”
The two children didn’t quite understand what she meant.
However, six-year-old Su Xuexuan said, “Uncle said that it’s great if you can learn from your mistakes.”
Su Binglan was surprised. ‘Luo Jin’an had taught them this sentence?’
The six-year-old Su Xuexuan had remembered it.
Su Binglan said smilingly, “I’ll become better and treat you two well. I was wrong before. I apologize to both of you.”
Liu Yinyin watched from the sidelines and said, “No, no, no. Why would you apologize to the children?”
Liu Yinyin hadn’t wanted to bring her two children here in the afternoon. Her husband had gone out, and she was afraid that Su Binglan would make things difficult for her or bully her two children. However, her mother-in-law was a good person. Since her mother-in-law had insisted on her coming here, Liu Yinyin had agreed.
If Liu Yinyin stayed away from her mother-in-law’s house all the time, people would gossip about her mother-in-law. Moreover, her mother-in-law said that Su Binglan had changed back to how she was before.
Liu Yinyin did not believe her mother-in-law, but her mother-in-law was never one to lie. She just held her suspicions in her heart.
The entire afternoon, Liu Yinyin was full of anxiety.
Liu Yinyin felt that Su Binglan was different from before when she studied her expressions and words. She breathed a little easier, but she was still afraid that Su Binglan would suddenly turn cruel again.
However, upon Liu Yinyin’s return, she found that her sister-in-law and brother-in-law’s relationship seemed much more harmonious, and Luo Jin’an was vouching for Su Binglan. This change between them was pretty subtle.
Could it be that the two of them now had a better relationship?
The way Su Binglan used to beat and scold Luo Jin’an was scary, too scary.
Luo Jin’an must be magnanimous. Otherwise, how could he treat Su Binglan so differently after all she had done?
