Capítulo 13: Chapter 13: Shouldn't Have Expectations for This Bad Woman

Pei Ziheng gave the child a cold glance and remained silent. Zhou Hao took the initiative to sidle up to Pei Ziheng and said, "My clothes were also bought by my stepmother. I don't want to wear them, but my grandmother insists I do, or she won't buy me any toys."

Seeing Zhou Hao's annoyance, Pei Ziheng, as if possessed by some demon, asked, "Do you not like your stepmother?"

Zhou Hao gave a look that said "Isn't that obvious?" and whispered to Pei Ziheng, "I've heard people say that stepmothers are really bad. I definitely don't want one."

A malicious thought crossed Pei Ziheng's mind, and he purposely said, "There's nothing you can do about it, your real mother doesn't want you anymore."

Zhou Hao visibly became sullen, and stopped whispering with Pei Ziheng, clearly angry.

Yet Pei Ziheng's mood suddenly improved, and he cheerfully went off to play with other kids by the sandbox.

Not far away, several aunties from the residential compound were gossiping with animated fervor.
