Shen Yaoyao was naturally unwilling and pushed back repeatedly, "Really, no need. I'll play with Chenchen a bit longer. You go down and prepare some food; Chenchen is a bit hungry..."
Before she could finish speaking, the door was pushed open.
The housekeeper, holding a spare key, was startled by the mess and quickly looked at the young master sitting on the windowsill.
Seeing one of his little legs already dangling outside, he nearly had a heart attack.
"Young master, come down quickly, it's dangerous there!"
Shen Yaoyao hadn't expected the child to be so daring, actually straddling the windowsill. In front of the housekeeper, she put on a gentle, worried demeanor.
"Chenchen, be good and come down. Don't be naughty. You'll get hurt if you fall."
Shen Jinxi sat on the windowsill, his little leg swinging, making everyone's heart flutter. He said something astonishing, "Didn't you tell me to climb up here?"
The housekeeper immediately looked at Shen Yaoyao.
She panicked too, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could I tell you to go there? It's very dangerous. You went there yourself, come down quickly!"
Shen Jinxi pouted and lowered his head, looking very dejected, "You told me to come up, and said you'd throw me out if I didn't listen."
The housekeeper looked utterly bewildered, and angry, "Miss Shen, you!"
"Chenchen, how can you speak such lies?" Shen Yaoyao's voice cracked with shock. "No, I never said such a thing. Chenchen, you're too mischievous, how could you frame me? Did someone teach you? You weren't like this before!"
The housekeeper, however, wouldn't listen to any explanation and said sternly, "Miss Shen, I will report this matter truthfully to the master. You await his judgment."
He said no more to Shen Yaoyao, slowly walked towards Shen Jinxi, and called out gently.
"Young master, listen to Uncle housekeeper and come down first. Master will be back soon. Shall I take you downstairs to wait for him?"
Clearly, the word "Master" held greater appeal for Shen Jinxi.
He slowly retracted his little radish legs and was caught by the housekeeper.
As they left, the housekeeper didn't glance at Shen Yaoyao once. However, he didn't notice Shen Jinxi, in his arms, giving Shen Yaoyao a bright, innocent smile over his shoulder.
But his outstretched chubby little hand made a rather unfriendly gesture.
Shen Yaoyao was almost furious.
But she dared not be arrogant now. She was more worried about how Fu Jingshu would deal with her if he found out everything. She had worked so hard to stay.
She couldn't leave like this!
She quickly followed them downstairs and saw the housekeeper coaxing Shen Jinxi on the sofa.
Just then, the door at the entrance opened.
Her eyelids twitched. It was indeed Fu Jingshu. Before she could speak, the housekeeper quickly narrated the entire incident.
Fu Jingshu's face darkened visibly, but he didn't immediately fly into a rage. Instead, he looked at Shen Jinxi.
"Is what Uncle housekeeper said true?"
Shen Jinxi sat on the sofa, a small figure looking both adorable and pitiful. "Mommy said I should climb onto the window. She said we were playing a game of swinging to heaven."
At that moment, the atmosphere in the living room seemed to freeze.
The housekeeper fumed, "Miss Shen, you've gone too far! The young master is so small. If he had fallen, he would have truly gone to heaven. You're young, a graduate of a prestigious university, how could you learn to be so vicious?!"
He couldn't understand, how could the child's own mother bear to do this?
Shen Yaoyao wanted to explain but found herself speechless, breaking out in a sweat.
Fu Jingshu spoke coldly, "Since you like playing so much, you can play to your heart's content. Guards, take Miss Shen to play on the swing."
He was truly enraged. The thought of Chenchen potentially falling sent a chill through his blood.
No one dared disobey his command. Immediately, two maids brought thick ropes and bound Shen Yaoyao. To prevent her from creating a scene that might disturb the master, they gagged her as well.
Then, they actually hung her on the balcony!
The sun was blazing outside. Shen Yaoyao, tied up like a dumpling, hung on the balcony for an hour.
When she was finally brought down, her throat was dry, her body parched, sweat soaking her hair. She collapsed on the floor, dizzy and disoriented, unable to recover for a long time.
As she recovered slightly, she blurredly saw the cold-faced Fu Jingshu, appearing like a god. Instinctively, she tried to speak.
But acid reflux surged from her stomach, and she vomited a puddle onto the floor!
The yellow and white mess on the ground emitted an unbearable sour stench.
Fu Jingshu's face darkened. He endured it, then finally couldn't help but cover his nose, "Take her to the restroom and clean her up thoroughly."
He then turned and strode away. This woman was truly disgusting!
Without uttering a single word, Shen Yaoyao was thrown into the restroom by the maids. The door closed, leaving her sitting alone on the cold tiles.
She struggled to crawl to the door and tried to knock, but it seemed no one was outside, and there was no response.
Unbeknownst to her, two maids were standing guard outside. "The master said to keep an eye on her and not let her out. She needs to reflect in the restroom. We must stay vigilant today."
"Right. To be honest, this is the first time I've seen the master look so furious!"
"This woman is only getting what she deserves!" Kai Shu Ge.
...
Upstairs bedroom.
Fu Jingshu held Shen Jinxi, dressed in pajamas, in bed and said softly, "Were you scared today?"
Shen Jinxi flinched, feigning fear.
Fu Jingshu rubbed his head and tucked him into the covers. He thought for a moment, "I'll get you a glass of milk. Be good, and don't go near the window, understand?"
Shen Jinxi nodded obediently.
As soon as Fu Jingshu left, he immediately unleashed his true self. He took out his miniature smart watch and sent a message to his beloved mommy.
—Mommy, Mommy, I gave Shen Yaoyao a good lesson today!
—She went to the Fu family again?
—Mm-hmm, she's so annoying. She thought I was the same Chenchen as before and wanted to bully me, but I fought back!
Thinking of her alone and pitiful state in the restroom, Shen Jinxi couldn't help but chuckle.
Shen Qingqing's message quickly came back.
—Xixi, you're amazing. But be careful, that woman is a lunatic.
—Don't worry, Mommy, I learned from you. I'll make sure she leaves in disgrace and never dares to come back! Praise me, Mommy!
Shen Qingqing smiled helplessly and, as the little guy wished, replied with an emoji.
—Hugs, kisses, lift high.
Shen Jinxi was satisfied. He didn't think the conversation with his mommy was the least bit childish. Hearing footsteps, he reluctantly ended his exchange with his mommy.
—Mommy, I have to go, the Big Ice Cube is back! Love you!
Meanwhile, Shen Qingqing shook her head with a smile. But thinking of Shen Yaoyao, her smile gradually faded. She hadn't expected her to go to the Fu family after leaving the villa.
However, with Xixi there, that idiot wouldn't gain anything.
