The Stepmother’s Counterattack: Raising a Child in a Bygone Era

Originally, Ren Jingshu had intended to break up with Zhao Yun.

From the start, it was out of rebellion that she had agreed to date Zhao Yun early; she didn’t like him.

Admittedly, as they spent time together, she began to develop a fondness for Zhao Yun, but it was limited to friendship rather than romantic feelings.

Now that she had achieved her goal and Zhao Yun was about to embark on his future, it was time to say goodbye.

She deliberately brought up Zhao Yun’s ex-girlfriends, not out of jealousy or to rehash old issues, but as an excuse to break up.

She had originally thought that Zhao Yun was just an immature boy, unsure of what he wanted, and that his dating her was a mere playful pursuit.

But just now, after hearing his thoughts on collecting seashells, she realized she was wrong.

Zhao Yun seemed to understand what it meant to like someone.

And she, toward Zhao Yun, wasn’t completely indifferent.

At least, when she considered breaking up, she felt a twinge of sadness and reluctance.
