Chapter 93: Chapter 93: Specialization

On the weekend, Old Mrs. Xu planned to go back home.

Before leaving, Yun Shifei joined the family in sending Old Mrs. Xu off.

Old Mrs. Xu said to Yun Shifei and Yun Sisi, "You two will be on summer break soon, right? Remember to come visit Grandma during the holidays."

"Alright, Grandma," Yun Shifei replied, tugging gently at Old Mrs. Xu’s hand, feeling reluctant to part.

Old Mrs. Xu gently patted Yun Shifei’s head.

She really liked this child. There wasn’t a trace of pretentiousness or artifice in her—every emotion was displayed on her face.

Before coming, she had been worried that Yun Shifei might be a shy and reserved child. But upon meeting her, she discovered that this girl was refreshingly straightforward and confident.

Seeing Yun Shifei like this, Yun Sisi mimicked her and grabbed onto Old Mrs. Xu’s other arm. "Grandma, I haven’t seen Cousin or Big Sis for so long. I really miss them."

This statement was meant to emphasize that she had the closest connection with the relatives of their family.

Whereas Yun Shifei probably didn’t even know any of them.

Old Mrs. Xu’s brow furrowed almost imperceptibly, but she quickly smiled at Yun Sisi and then addressed Yun Shifei again, "Shifei, you can also meet your cousin and big sister then. You should get acquainted."

Hmph, Yun Sisi felt a bit displeased. She was the one talking to Old Mrs. Xu—why did she turn her attention back to Yun Shifei?

Their relationship seemed so close.

Was it because Yun Shifei was Old Mrs. Xu’s biological granddaughter, whereas she was the one adopted from an orphanage? Was she treated worse because of that?

Hah, she had always just wanted a simple kind of love from everyone. She merely feared not being liked—was it really so difficult to be loved?

What Yun Sisi didn’t understand at this moment was that faked affection and genuine love were miles apart.

For someone like Old Mrs. Xu, who had seen more rice grains than Yun Sisi had drank cups of water, distinguishing the difference wasn’t difficult.

After bidding farewell to Old Mrs. Xu, Yun Sisi secretly acted pitiful in front of Xu Ya.

"Mom, did you notice that Grandma didn’t seem to favor me as much this time? Is it because I’m not her biological granddaughter?"

Xu Ya stroked Yun Sisi’s hair. "Sisi, don’t overthink it."

Yun Sisi wanted to say more but noticed that Xu Ya’s gaze constantly drifted toward Yun Shifei. Those words stayed stuck in her throat.
