?Chapter 1551: I Do Love You
She had no closet full of clothes. Instead, the school had issued three sets of uniforms for her.
Shi Sinan didn’t know how to do laundry. She would just soak her clothes in the water and then hang them on the drying rack, not even knowing how to wring them out.
The rice wasn’t as delicious as back home, making it very unpleasant for Shi Sinan. Once, she even ate a bug, a green one.
The incident left Shi Sinan with no appetite all day.
It was almost as if she was living with tear bubbles in her eyes. She just wished her family would come soon to take her away from this hellhole.
With her phone confiscated and unable to contact her family, Shi Sinan felt like she had fallen from one world into another.
“Mom, I don’t want to go to that school,” pleaded Shi Sinan to Ning Shu.
“It’s fine. You’ll be taking exams soon. You’ll leave that school when you’re in college,” said Ning Shu indifferently.
Shi Sinan broke down a bit and shouted at Ning Shu, “Mom, you weren’t like this before. Mom, you don’t love me anymore.”
Ning Shu smiled gently. “I do love you. Why wouldn’t I love you?”
“Why are you sending me to a school like this? Mom, I want to go back to my previous school. Please, I’ll listen to you from now on.” Shi Sinan begged Ning Shu.
Ning Shu reached out to rub Shi Sinan’s head and said, “Good girl, be good.”
As if electrocuted, Shi Sinan’s body spasmed, and she silently wept.
As soon as she returned home, Shi Sinan rushed in, ready to find her grandfather and beg him not to let her go to that school.
As soon as Shi Sinan entered the living room, she saw Xi Mucheng sitting on the sofa. For some reason, though, she immediately covered her face. She did not want him to see her in such a mess.
When Xi Mucheng saw Shi Sinan, he stood up and walked over towards her. However, he stopped after two steps.
His eyes swept over Shi Sinan, and he said, “What? You don’t say hello even when you see your uncle?”
Shi Sinan lowered her head and said quietly, “Uncle.”
Xi Mucheng was sizing up Shi Sinan, and his gaze made her face a little hot. Finally, he said, “Well, you’ve lost a lot of weight.”
When Shi Sinan heard this, her nose stung, and she almost cried out.
Ning Shu drove the car to the garage. When she stepped into the living room, she saw Shi Sinan and Xi Mucheng standing opposite each other. There was an inexplicable atmosphere between them.
Ning Shu walked over and took Shi Sinan’s hand. “Go upstairs and take a shower. Your grandfather will be back in a bit.”
Shi Sinan kept her head down and followed Ning Shu up the stairs, feeling her uncle’s lingering gaze on her.
Warmth welled up in Shi Sinan’s heart. At the very least, her uncle cared about her, unlike her mother, who was so cold and heartless.
After taking a shower and picking a beautifully crafted dress from the closet, Shi Sinan glanced in the mirror. She realized that her face didn’t quite match her outfit.
She used to look very pretty in this dress. But now, her skin was a little tanned from school, and so the outfit looked different.
Shi Sinan bit her lip tightly and picked up the makeup kit from the dresser. She powdered her face and neck so that she looked much fairer.
Ning Shu waited outside the room for Shi Sinan. When Shi Sinan came out, Ning Shu noticed her several shades whiter complexion.
She had put on makeup?
Shi Sinan stared at Ning Shu a bit unnaturally and said, “Mom.”
