gless" topics with her at all." 。The following week, Cheng Zhimin gradually recovered. Zhuo Yu'an didn't have to stay in the hospital to look after her anymore. Besides visiting once in the morning an...Since Cheng Zhimin was already in the city, she inevitably had to meet the children before leaving. Whether she liked it or not, they were after all the children of her Zhuo family. However, Shu Tinglan wouldn't take the initiative to bring the children to see her, and she was also afraid that her son Zhuo Yu'an would know, so she didn't dare to go to the kindergarten rashly.

But she was Cheng Zhimin. If she wanted to see the two children, there were a thousand and one ways to do it. Although retired, she had been at the helm of the education system for many years and had plenty of resources. Besides, with Zhuo Hong's connections, countless people lined up waiting to serve her.

She has also become much more low-key and hasn't been as ostentatious. Instead, she contacted an old colleague and, under the guise of the Ministry of Education, organized a caring for young children event to inspect food safety in private kindergartens in the city. She was able to participate legitimately this way.

She was very familiar with this kind of caring activity, as she would typically attend one or two events each year. After checking on the kindergarten's food safety and other issues, she would usually participate in some small activities at the kindergarten to demonstrate their care for the nation's young seedlings.

Shuxiao Nian and Shuxiao He attend a chain kindergarten in this city. It's large in scale, has standardized teaching, and employs a Japanese chef who is meticulous about food. The nutrition is well-balanced and comprehensive, never cutting corners. When Shuting Lan chose this kindergarten, she prioritized this aspect because her own cooking skills are lacking. She hoped that the children could eat better at kindergarten.

Cheng Zhimin, surrounded by several colleagues from the city, took a whirlwind tour. Finally, her gaze settled on the children playing outdoors on the playground.

Without her even having to look for them, the two children were truly eye-catching. Among a group of little kids all wearing the same school uniform, these two stood out with their distinct appearances and personalities.

The headmaster noticed her gaze fixed on Shu Xiaonian and Shu Xiaohe, so he introduced them.

“The two of them are twins, the brother is named Shu Xiaonian and the sister is named Shu Xiaohe. They are both very pretty and well-behaved.”

Shu Xiaonian

Shu Xiaohua

What a horrible and embarrassing name!

The surname Shu made Cheng Zhimin extremely uncomfortable. Coupled with such a petty name, she couldn't stand it. She thought that when she took the children back, the first thing she would do was change their surname and name.

Last name Zhuo, so impressive!

Two children seemed to feel her gaze and looked over at her. The head teacher, being a shrewd person, beckoned them over.

Two children were about to go down the slide when they saw the headmaster beckoning them over, so they bounced and skipped towards him.

Shu Xiaohua has a sweet mouth. She greets everyone with, "Hello, Teacher Yuanzhang, hello grandma."

Shu Xiaonian is a bit more introverted, but out of politeness, she also learned to call Shu Xiaohe: "Hello, Teacher Principal, hello grandma."

Cheng Zhimin felt a touch in her heart when she saw the children for the first time, so close. Even if she disliked their mother, they were still members of the Zhuo family after all.

Shu Xiaohua looks too much like Shu Tinglan. When she looks at her, she automatically substitutes Shu Tinglan's face, which makes her feel awkward. But the little girl is also very sweet and obediently calls her grandma. In this awkwardness, she takes out two lollipops that she had prepared earlier and gives them to them.

"Thank you, Grandma," Shu Xiaohua happily took the lollipop.

"Thank you." Shu Xiaonian didn't accept it, instead she pulled her younger sister Shu Xiaohe's hand and wanted to leave.

He is a reserved yet perceptive child. He caught the fleeting coldness and disdain in the grandmother's eyes when she looked at his sister just now, and he instinctively wanted to protect his sister from approaching that grandmother.

> At first glance, Cheng Zhimin fell for Shu Xiaonian. She looked just like Zhuo Yu'an when he was a child, even her expressions and mannerisms were identical. Recalling how she had been too busy with work to spend time with Zhuo Yu'an when he was younger, always transferring jobs with Zhuo Hong, leading to a distant relationship between mother and son, which was her lifelong regret. Seeing Shu Xiaonian now was like seeing Zhuo Yu'an as a child, time traveling back to the past.

Seeing him not take her lollipop, she crouched down slightly to show her greatest tenderness and offered it to Shu Xiaonian again.

"Teacher Cheng is so approachable. The headmaster thought this scene was really heartwarming, and smiled and said to Shu Xiaonian:"

"Little Nian, quickly thank Grandma Cheng."

Shu Xiaonian has her own principles and firmly refuses

“My mother doesn't allow us to eat sugar.”

Under normal circumstances, Cheng Zhimin wouldn't be angry, of course. It's right for children to listen to their mothers and not eat candy. But Shu Xiaonian listened so readily to Shu Tinglan, which made her feel a little uncomfortable. She remained calm and insisted on holding the lollipop up to Shu Xiaonian, essentially using her own authority to pressure Shu Xiaonian into taking it.

Although the face was kind, the movements of the hands carried a sense of coercion.

"Say thank you quickly."

The headmaster eased the tension, taking Shuxiaonian's hand to take the lollipop from Cheng Zhimin's grasp, but Shuxiaonian just clenched her small fists and refused.

Although Shuxiaohe didn't understand what was going on, she sensed that the head gardener and the grandmother were bullying her brother. She became upset too, siding with her brother against them and returning the candy.

"I won't eat either."

Her actions were like pouring gasoline on a fire. Cheng Zhimin couldn't lose her temper in public, so she could only glare at her fiercely. Shu Xiaohua immediately burst into tears.

Shu Xiaonian was angry because Cheng Zhimin had glared at her younger sister again, making her cry. She grabbed her sister's hand and said...

“You are bad, we don't want your candy.”

The scene became awkward, and the silence was the most terrifying thing.

The several cadres who came with Chi Min were all furious, and the principal's face turned pale. Today's inspection was conducted by a big shot! The headquarters had repeatedly emphasized the importance of proper hospitality, but the result was...the two usually well-behaved children acted as if they were different people. Reacting, she sternly rebuked

“Who taught you, apologize to Teacher Cheng quickly!”

Their teacher also rushed over, without saying a word, grabbed Shu Xiaonian and Shu Xiaohe, making them apologize to Cheng Zhimin. Shu Xiaohe was so frightened that she burst into tears, while Shu Xiaonian pursed her lips and remained silent, showing great independence.

Cheng Zhimin only felt that these two children were really uneducated. Sure enough, what kind of good children could Shu Tinglan bring up She didn't want to make a big deal out of things in public, and she also wanted to maintain her image, so she waved her hand and said...

“It's fine, let's go.”

One person accompanied her as she left.

Shu Tinglan received a phone call from her child's kindergarten teacher on her way back to the law firm after meeting with a client. The teacher was brief and to the point.

"Come to the kindergarten with me."

"What happened" Shu Tinglan's heart skipped a beat the moment she received a call from her child's kindergarten teacher, fearing something might have happened to the children at school.

"We'll talk later." The teacher's icy voice came from the phone.

Besides the teacher stood the principal, whose face was icy with displeasure. Today, they had truly embarrassed the entire kindergarten.

Feeling sorry for Shu Xiaohua, I cried.d yuan, so he thought about keeping things quiet.Song Jingye stood coolly to the side: "Let's not mention their illegal human trafficking for now, but they beat up my people. This probably isn't somet...
