31 An Lians Business (2/2)

She understood her daughter's feelings for An Lian. Normally, she would not dare to mention him at all.

With an apologetic look, she said, ”Mom, I was too insensible in the past. Teacher An helped us so much, but I treated him so badly. I won't be an ingrate in the future. Teacher An is a good person.”

She hesitated, then said, ”Mom, if you and Teacher An have... That... ”It means that you two should stick together, I support you.”

Wan Chao still felt awkward and reluctant to tell her mother that she wanted her mother to remarry, but she was willing to give it a try for Bai Zhexi's happiness.

Bai Zhexi was momentarily shocked. She knew how much Chao'er had disliked An Lian. Why did she …?

”Chao'er, you … Are you alright? ” Bai Zhexi asked.

”Mom, I mean it. As long as you're happy, I'm willing to do anything for you.”

She had seen all the changes her daughter had made in the past few days, and had always wondered and suspected. Now that her daughter was even willing to accept An Lian, she finally believed that Chao'er had changed for the better.

Bai Zhexi couldn't help but hug Wan Chao.

Wan Chao silently let Bai Zhexi embrace her, feeling the arms of her mother, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.

After crying for a while, Bai Zhexi finally thought that she had not eaten yet. Chao'er still needed to take a nap, and after that she had to go to school. She stopped crying, wiped her face, and said with a smile:

”Chao'er, in mother's heart, only your father can compare to her.”

Wan Chao heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. She really did not want anyone to replace the position of her father.

Bai Zhexi continued, ”An Lian is a good man. A few years ago, our family was in such a difficult situation that An Lian was willing to extend a hand to help us mother-daughter. Although mother knew An Lian's feelings, in order to let you grow up in peace, I accepted his help against your will.

Come to think of it, mom is using him. I want to wait until you grow up, work, and earn money, then mom will sell this house and give all the money to An Lian as compensation.”

So that's how it was. She had misunderstood Bai Zhexi, and for a moment, Wan Chao'er felt pity for An Lian.

Wan Chao smiled. So, it turns out that she still liked to sympathize with the weak. Forget it, in the future, she would be nicer to An Lian. When their soy sauce business starts, she will give him more money.

Or when An Lian was old, she would hire a nanny to serve him.

After this matter was explained, the mother and daughter then began to eat lunch.

After lunch, the two of them asked each other about the situation for the entire morning. Bai Zhexi prepared the soy sauce dishes at home and had to deliver them to the newly developed restaurant tomorrow.

When Bai Zhexi found out that Wan Chao had slapped Zhuo Yao, she frowned and instructed with concern:

”Chao'er, Zhuo Yao is really not a simple person. I don't know why she treats you like this either. Mom's opinion is that you should avoid Zhuo Yao from now on and never interact with her again.

Your current task is to study hard and help mom do the pickle business. Our time is very precious, it's not worth wasting it on her.

I see that she's wholeheartedly trying to destroy you so you have to study properly and get into a good university, live a better life than her, and achieve greater achievements than her. When that happens, it will be the greatest blow to her. ”

Wan Chao nodded and said, ”Mom, I'll think about what you said.”

She felt that Bai Zhexi's words made sense. She had to think carefully about how to deal with Zhuo Yao, this white lotus.
