CHAPTER 901: CHAPTER 903: LIN FEI KICKED OUT OF THE GAME

Saturday.

Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan at the Purple Garden Pavilion Villa.

"President Mu, forgive me for being blunt, but you shouldn’t spoil Chu— I mean, Keke too much. If you spoil a child like her, it will be detrimental to the development of her independence in the future. Especially considering that Keke, having spent a considerable time in the orphanage."

Taking advantage of a work-free Saturday to visit Keke, Ling Weiwei saw Mu Shanshan holding Keke protectively, pampering her with every whim in a doting manner. Ling Weiwei couldn’t help but express her concern to Mu Shanshan.

Though Ling Weiwei had never had children herself, her background in the orphanage and frequent visits to play with the children there, along with regular communication with the orphanage director, gave her valuable insights.

Therefore, in terms of educating children, Ling Weiwei had much more experience as a godmother than Mu Shanshan, who became a stepmother midway.

As they both came from the same orphanage, Ling Weiwei’s love for Keke was no less than that of Mu Shanshan.

However, setting aside her affection, Ling Weiwei, who was familiar with the growth trajectory of orphans, placed a greater emphasis on cultivating Keke’s future character.

"Miss Ling, it’s okay. Keke is still so young now. And she is very well-behaved. You wouldn’t believe it, Miss Ling, since Keke came here, she hasn’t cried even once. Really, not once. And she is so obedient. At night, when Keke sleeps with me, she never fusses. After I finish the bedtime story, she voluntarily closes her eyes and sleeps."

"Hearing you say that, Aunt Lan, I feel much more at ease."

Listening to Aunt Lan’s explanation about Keke’s behavior at the Purple Garden Pavilion Villa, Ling Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief. Her gaze at Keke became even more filled with affection.

"President Mu, to be honest, if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have believed that you would love children so much. Keke, to become your daughter, must be the blessing she earned over several lifetimes."

Ling Weiwei’s words were not an exaggeration.

Though the children fostered in the orphanage sometimes get adopted by affluent families, very few have a benefactor as financially formidable as Mu Shanshan.

This is even without considering Lin Fei’s identity as the soul of the Hell’s Judgement Organization. Considering this along with Lin Fei’s identity, Keke is undoubtedly one of the most fortunate adoptees to date.

Both Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan, as well as Ling Weiwei—the nominal godmother who visits occasionally—could see that Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan truly treat Keke as their own daughter.

For Ling Weiwei, who shared an orphanage origin with Keke and to some extent regarded Keke as family, nothing could make her happier than this.

Meanwhile, as Ling Weiwei, Mu Shanshan, and Aunt Lan each gave their opinions on helping Keke quickly overcome autism and her future development, the doorbell rang, and Shen Peini entered the villa with a large amount of baby food and children’s toys after Aunt Lan opened the door.

"Oh, Miss Shen. You really shouldn’t have gone to so much trouble. We and Miss are already very happy that you came to see Keke. There’s no need to bring so many things."

"Aunt Lan, it’s my duty. After all, it’s my first time visiting Keke, so I should bring more things for her."

Shen Peini set down the items and casually responded to Aunt Lan as she approached Mu Shanshan, smiling as she extended her hand towards Keke, saying, "The little darling of President Mu’s family, do you mind if Auntie holds you?"

Shen Peini’s words were directed at Mu Shanshan.

Mu Shanshan, being the person involved, naturally understood.

Regarding Shen Peini’s expressed intention not to compete with her over Keke, Mu Shanshan was quite satisfied.

Thus, after Shen Peini finished speaking, Mu Shanshan actively picked up Keke and introduced her to Shen Peini, saying, "Keke, this is Aunt Shen. She’s one of us. Come, learn from mom, Aunt Shen—"

"Ke, Ke, Keke..."

After Keke’s indistinct voice faded, Shen Peini couldn’t help expressing her surprise, "She, she can speak? I remember hearing from Vice Minister Lin that Chu Si seemed to have mild autism. Could it be that I remembered wrong?"

"Miss Shen, you didn’t remember wrong. Keke indeed has mild autism, but perhaps it was because she drank too much hot cocoa yesterday that she spoke for the first time. Oh, and Miss Shen, you might not know, but thanks to a joke by our son-in-law yesterday, Keke is no longer called Chu Si. She’s now Keke."

"I see." Shen Peini nodded in understanding, referring to Aunt Lan’s explanation about Lin Fei’s joke leading to the renaming of Chu Si.

Taking Keke from Mu Shanshan’s hands, a surge of maternal instincts rose in Shen Peini, prompting her to speak with slight discontent, "Aunt Lan, President Mu, is Vice Minister Lin always this casual with Keke? Changing a name might not seem like a big deal, but a name follows someone for their entire life. How can Vice Minister Lin joke about something like that?!"

After Shen Peini expressed her thoughts, both Mu Shanshan and Aunt Lan were about to respond, but Ling Weiwei seated beside them also expressed her discontent towards Lin Fei, "President Shen is right. President Mu, forgive my bluntness, but with Vice Minister Lin’s temperament, he is not suitable to be Keke’s father. I mean no offense to Vice Minister Lin’s character, but his nature is somewhat too laid-back. If he were to lead in parenting Keke, it might not be beneficial for her development!"

"Therefore, I implore you as Keke’s godmother, President Mu, under no circumstances should Vice Minister Lin take the lead in Keke’s parenting issues. Especially when it comes to Keke’s schooling in the future, whatever happens, Vice Minister Lin must not be allowed to make the decisions. Otherwise, I’m worried he might delay Keke’s future."

After Ling Weiwei finished speaking, Aunt Lan, aware that the renaming of Keke wasn’t as Ling Weiwei imagined, wanted to clarify in Lin Fei’s defense.

Unfortunately, before Aunt Lan could voice her thoughts, Mu Shanshan, who had always intended to take sole charge of Keke’s upbringing, spoke decisively, "Minister Ling, you are absolutely right. Your concerns are my concerns as well. To put your mind at ease regarding Keke’s parenting, I assure you right now that I will not allow Lin Fei to overly interfere with Keke’s upbringing!"
