Chapter 221 - 35 Fulfilling One’s Wish
Shen Chi was in a great mood, humming military songs while watering the vegetable garden with Lin Xiaoguai.
Lin Xiaoguai felt a bit embarrassed, wondering if it was a bit off to associate military songs with such a lighthearted tune?
Lin Xiaoguai lowered her head to sprinkle the extraterrestrial natural fertilizer, which had already been repackaged, into the vegetable garden. After she finished, she saw Shen Chi still happily watering, but he was about to drown the cabbage at his feet. Angrily, she said, "Shen Chi!"
"Huh?" Shen Chi snapped out of it and noticed the innocent cabbage, quickly moving the sprinkler away, and appeased Lin Xiaoguai with, "Wanwan, I was wrong!"
"I just don’t get it, what are you so happy about?" Lin Xiaoguai was very puzzled. As far as she knew, Shen Chi was not someone whose feelings were easily seen on his face, and Liu Yuzhi wasn’t that formidable of a figure. Could dealing with her make him so happy?
"There are some things I find hard to say." Shen Chi frowned in thought for a moment before continuing, "You see, when I was first told that I was not my dad and mom’s biological son, I hadn’t had the chance to feel sad before I was hit by another piece of news. A bastard..."
His smile was indescribably sarcastic, "At that moment, I felt as if the sky had collapsed. You know, if the label ’bastard’ was proven true, my whole life would be ruined. At that time, I aspired to make something of myself in the army, and such news struck like a bolt from the blue, almost shattering my composure."
"That’s why, all these years, as Liu Yuzhi kept suppressing and persecuting me, I could only passively defend myself and dare not fight back, swallowing down my broken teeth and blood, all because I was afraid Liu Yuzhi would publicize the fact that I was a bastard. At that time, I always thought that my whole life would be constantly fraught with dangers until I reached a high enough position to counterattack without compromising myself."
