Chapter 41: Reading

“Xiao Yu?”

Shen Yan came down from the study and saw Shen Yu sitting on the sofa with a frown on his face. He looked like a stranger who shouldn’t be near him. He instantly became a little nervous. He was fine when he came back, but what happened now?

Shen Yu raised his head and glanced at Shen Yan on the stairs. He lowered his head again, full of disappointment.

For the first time, he did not know what he should do. What should he do to ensure that the girl next to him was not in any danger?

“Did Millie make you worried about what happened today?”

Shen Yan understood very well. Although Shen Yu was very withdrawn, he had always had his own thoughts. The way he looked now was definitely because something had affected his thoughts.

And the only thing that could affect Shen Yu’s emotions now was Emily.

Shen Yu still had his head lowered.

Shen Yan sighed and held Shen Yu’s shoulder tightly as he slowly said, “I’m sorry.”.

“In the past, you sealed yourself in your own space. Now that Millie is here, everyone in your family can clearly feel your change and are happy. No matter what happens, your family will stand on your side and will stand by Millie’s side. So you don’t have to be afraid. Those things are already in the past and won’t hurt you anymore.”

Shen Yu’s entire body could not stop trembling. No matter what, he was still a child. When he thought of the bloody scenes that he had experienced in the past, he could not help but be afraid.

Shen Yan hugged Shen Yu tightly and comforted him softly.

“It’s okay. It’s all in the past. It’s all in the past.”

Shen Yu bit his lower lip tightly, as if he wanted to use this method to alleviate his pain.

Shen Yan’s heart ached more and more as he patted Shen Yu’s back.

After a while, Shen Yu calmed down and Shen Yan changed the topic.

“Millie is not young anymore. It’s time for her to study. Tomorrow, I’ll get the butler to look for a school and send Millie to study. What do you think?”

Shen Yu raised his head and looked at Shen Yan with a look of unwillingness.

“Millie is about the same age as Nan. Logically speaking, she should be in primary school. Do you want Millie to stay at home and grow up to be illiterate?”

Shen Yu frowned. He did not want to, but when he thought about how Emily wanted to leave his sight, Shen Yu was not happy.

“I can teach her myself.”

“You are not a teacher. Do you know what to teach? There is no room for negotiation on this matter. Since we agreed to raise Millie in the Shen family, then we have to be responsible for Millie.”

Shen Yu frowned even more. It was rare for Shen Yan to speak to her in a tough manner, but he had to admit that what Shen Yan said was not unreasonable.

“Then I want to go to school too.”

Shen Yan initially thought that he had scared Shen Yu, but who knew that the next second, what Shen Yu said would instantly make Shen Yan’s eyes pop out of their sockets.

“Are you sure?” Shen Yan could not believe what he had heard.

Ever since that incident, Shen Yu was no longer willing to communicate with anyone, and he never went to school again.

Shen Yan almost stood up and clapped his hands. The decision he made just now was actually so wise!

Shen Yu nodded heavily. The noisy environment at school made him very annoyed. However, compared to not seeing Emily for a day, this was really nothing.

What if Emily was bullied at school?

“Okay, okay, okay. I’ll get the butler to make the arrangements right away.”

Shen Yan excitedly went out to look for the housekeeper. He felt more and more that it was the right decision to raise Emily in the Shen family. Look, Shen Yu was willing to take the initiative to go out and contact other people.

At night, Shen Yan told Old Lady Shen about this matter. Old Lady Shen was also happy.

“It seems that this child, Millie, is really the lucky star of our Shen family. Recently, I realized that Shen Nan has changed quite a lot. He looks like an older brother.”

Originally, Shen Nan was the most unreasonable child in the family. However, he was extremely obedient and sensible recently. Especially when she found out that Shen Nan was actually protecting Emily in the hospital today, Old Lady Shen was even more gratified.

“Millie, this child, is obedient and sensible. She is someone who we will dote on.”

The Shen family was full of men. It was not easy for a girl to appear. Naturally, she was doted on by many people.

“It’s a good sign that Xiao Yu can take the initiative to contact other people, but old man, I’m telling you, you can’t put Xiao Yu and Millie in the same class.”
