Chapter 1117: Chapter 1117: Fight Evil with Evil: She Wakes Up in the Blood Coffin (3)

Director Li felt this was a fine opportunity, perhaps if he handled it well, Ye Shiqing would remember him, and it could pave the way for his future promotions and networking.

With self-satisfying calculations, he believed this was a golden chance given by Elder Ye to ascend to wealth and status…

Qingmu Garden.

After convincing Elder Ye, Cao Shiyu returned to the second floor. The servant rushed to hand the child to her upon her arrival. “Miss Cao, the young master is very obedient, exceptionally good, and adorable.”

Although the baby was only a little over a month old, he was changing every day, growing ever more adorable. It was only expected, being the flesh and blood of Ye Qilan, such an outstanding man; how could his child be anything less?

This child would surely grow up to be as outstanding as Ye Qilan, right?

No sooner had Cao Shiyu taken the child than he puckered his little lips and wailed to the heavens, as if he was naturally at odds with Cao Shiyu.

Cao Shiyu’s face darkened as she watched the child’s incessant crying.

If the child weren’t so young, she would have suspected he was deliberately opposing her. Why else would she be the only one to face this dead-parents look when others held him without issue?

Seeing Cao Shiyu’s grim expression, the servant didn’t dare linger and hurriedly left.

Cao Shiyu, now familiar with the situation, knew she couldn’t possibly soothe this little ancestor no matter what. She resignedly placed him in the crib to let him tire himself out.

Quite the performance indeed with his little mouth open, crying as if the skies were falling; such crying talent was unmatched.

Many who passed by had learned their lesson and didn’t dare to come in for a closer look. Once the child started crying, the tantrum lasted more than two hours.

Cao Shiyu lay on the bed, succumbing to the dual pressures on her mind and body, and quickly felt drowsy until the child’s crying pierced the quiet again.

She stormed over to the crib and shouted at the incessantly crying baby, “Cry again and I’ll throw you in the trash can!”

Outside, eavesdropping, Jiang Laotai’s heart ached at these words. Her precious grandson would never have good days in the hands of this vicious woman, Cao Shiyu.

The child was so small, he couldn’t understand, could he? She wouldn’t actually throw him in the trash, would she?

What to do now, storm in and snatch the child away?

Meanwhile, in the bedroom, the child continued to cry pitifully with his mouth puckered. Cao Shiyu couldn’t stand it any longer and picked up the baby, ready to stuff him into the trash.

However, looking at the child’s tear-streaked, adorable, flushed little face reminded her that he was Ye Qilan’s child. Ye Qilan was gone, and this was the only blood relation she had to him; how could she bear to harm him?

In the end, she couldn’t bring herself to be too harsh, placing the child back in his spot. “You should feel lucky you’re Si-ge’s child; otherwise, I would have gotten rid of you long ago!”

She crawled back into bed, pulled the covers over her, and feigned sleep. Amidst the child’s crying, she gradually drifted off.

Not long after she fell asleep, Jiang Laotai quietly came in. The crying child, seeing Jiang Laotai, paused and looked at her with his little mouth open.

Jiang Laotai carefully picked up the child, signaling him not to cry. He was well-behaved and didn’t make a sound as Jiang Laotai carried him away.

Without the child’s cries, Cao Shiyu slept unusually deeply that night.

She hadn’t had such a deep sleep in a long time, so when she opened her eyes the next day, she stretched comfortably. But she felt restrained even in stretching and felt as if she couldn’t even turn over.

Looking around, she found darkness all around. The space was incredibly narrow, without room to turn.
