“Why?”

Shen Yan was a little puzzled. Shen Yu had agreed to go to school because of Emily. If they were not in the same class, would Shen Yu just leave when he was unhappy?

“I say, old man, why are you going back to your old ways? You don’t even understand such simple logic? Tell me, do you want Millie to be able to fend herself by letting her go to school?”

Seeing that Shen Yan did not speak, Old Lady Shen continued to speak.

“If Millie has Xiao Yu by her side to protect her in everything, how do you think Millie will grow up?”

Old Lady Shen could see that Shen Yu cared about Millie. He was even a little overbearing. Even if the people in his family were too close to Millie and distracted her attention, Shen Yu would still be unhappy.

It was very difficult for Emily to grow up under Shen Yu’s protection.

Old Lady Shen sighed and continued, “Millie is a very sensible child. Although we adopted her because she could help Shen Yu, since we adopted her, we have to be responsible. Millie should have her own life. We should not let Millie follow Xiao Yu around.”

“I know what you’re saying, but I’m afraid that Xiao Yu will be angry with his temper.”

Shen Yan frowned. Shen Yu finally said that he wanted to go to school. If they were not in the same class, wouldn’t the gains outweigh the losses?

“You’ve only grown older after so many years, haven’t you?”

Old Lady Shen looked at Shen Yan with some disdain.

“You actually despise me?”

“I’ve despised you for so many years. It’s not like you’re the first to know. Why are you making such a fuss?”

Old Lady Shen was not afraid at all as she looked at Shen Yan who was a little angry. After all, they had supported each other for so many years and had gone through many ups and downs. How could they really quarrel over such a small matter?

“Hmph, since you’re smart, I’ll leave this matter to you. Don’t cry for my help when the time comes,” Shen Yan said disdainfully, then turned around with his back facing Old Lady Shen. He did not want to bother with Old Lady Shen now.

“I’ll do it then. Don’t underestimate me.”

Old Lady Shen was even more unconcerned about Shen Yan’s provocation. Then, she used her arm to bump into Shen Yan.

“Turn off the lights.”

Although Shen Yan was reluctant, he still reached out to turn off the lights.

Old Lady Shen smiled. After so many years, he was still as childish as ever.
