Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1755: Chapter 1749: Who Bullied You?

Chapter 53 “Alright, I got it.” Ye Li walked over, kissed Su Jin on the cheek, then reached out to hug her briefly before letting go.

“You were so adorable when you were little, but now, all traces of cuteness are gone.” Having achieved her goal, Su Jin didn’t continue pressuring Ye Li to do more.

“Aunt, shouldn’t you tell me where Shushu is now?” Ye Li looked at Su Jin’s dissatisfied face, his mouth twitching. He’s grown up; he’s not a child anymore. If he still behaved like his younger self, wouldn’t people laugh at him?

“She’s in her room. She said she’s packing her clothes to go play at a classmate’s house. I refused, so she’s throwing a tantrum in her room now.” Su Jin really didn’t understand how their family ended up with an oddball like Ye Zishu.

“Got it. Thanks, Aunt.” Ye Li went upstairs to find Ye Zishu. He felt that Zishu hadn’t inherited any traits from his uncle but completely took after his aunt’s mischievousness—and was rebellious to the core.

Others always said his aunt was as gentle as water, dignified, and virtuous. But only Ye Li and Ye Zishu truly knew what she was like. In their hearts, Su Jin could be summed up in one word: pretending.

Of course, Ye Junhua also knew Su Jin’s true nature. But in his eyes, those traits were endearing and virtues, so not only did he not find her fake, he liked her even more because of them.

Su Jin watched Ye Li walking upstairs. Time had flown by so fast. Unknowingly, the boy who used to follow her around, competing with Shushu for her attention, had grown so much.

She still remembered clearly when Ye Li first came to their house. His timid appearance tugged at her heartstrings—that child looked so adorable.

She hadn’t seen Ye Li before then, only heard of him. When they finally met, it was because his mother had disappeared, leaving him with no one to care for him. Her brother-in-law feared something might happen to him, so he sent Ye Li to their house. And so, he stayed for more than a decade.

Looking back, their relationship was more like that between mother and son. Many times, she cared for Ye Li in every way, and he willingly cooperated with her. To outsiders who didn’t know the backstory, no one would ever suspect they weren’t mother and son.

Ye Li was a bit proud and stubborn—he never cared about trivial matters. But once he set his sights on something, he’d find a way to get it. Thankfully, his inherent nature was good; he would never resort to underhanded methods to take what he wanted.

In this regard, Su Jin considered Ye Li an exceptional young man. So many people would stop at nothing to get what they wanted, but not him—he evaluated situations carefully. Su Jin couldn’t help but be thoroughly impressed with Ye Li’s character.

“Knock knock.” Ye Li went upstairs and knocked on Ye Zishu’s bedroom door.

“Bro.” Ye Zishu had thought it was her mother, but when she opened the door, she found Ye Li standing there.

“What’s the matter? Who’s been upsetting you?” Ye Li walked straight into Ye Zishu’s room. Having grown up together, they were closer than biological siblings, with no barriers between them at all.

“No one’s been upsetting me. I just wanted to go out and play, but Mom didn’t allow it. Isn’t that infuriating?” Ye Zishu thought to herself—who would possibly bully her? If anything, it’d be her own mother. She just wanted to visit Qin Jiale’s house for a bit, but her mom wouldn’t allow it. Isn’t that way over the top?

“Where do you want to go?” Ye Li looked at Ye Zishu and asked.

“I want to go to the Qin family’s village. I think Lele’s home atmosphere is so wonderful, don’t you?” Ye Zishu wanted to visit Qin Jiale’s house because the warmth of their family bonds made her feel deeply touched. She longed for that kind of bliss.
