Chapter 204 - 204 Xiao Lin Who Was Treated HarshlyChapter 204 Xiao Lin Who Was Treated Harshly
The system understood her personality, so it didn’t say much: [This child is called Xiao Lin. He’s a poor child who was mistreated by his stepmother. He’s also Xiao Zhe’s nephew. He’s not an important person and only appeared once in the original plot at a banquet organized by Xiao Zhe. He was dragged by a servant to eat cake.]
Xi Wan looked at the little boy who was seriously ordering the dishes and suddenly felt that he was a little pitiful.
“I’ve ordered. I’ll give you the menu.”
Lu Zhou took the menu and saw that he had been choosing for a long time. In the end, he only ordered a plain ice cream cone.
“Isn’t this a little too little?” Lu Zhou hesitated.

The little boy shook his head. “No need. This is good enough. Mom will be angry if I can’t eat when I get home later.”
Xi Wan nodded. She picked up a pen and wrote down what she wanted. After Lu Zhou finished choosing, she handed the menu to the waiter.
“Let me introduce myself. My name is Xi Wan, and this sister is Lu Zhou. What’s your name, kid?” Although Xi Wan already knew his identity, she still asked to avoid arousing suspicion.
“Sister Xi Wan, Sister Lu Zhou, my name is Xiao Lin.” Xiao Lin said politely.
“Xiao Lin…” Lu Zhou felt like she had heard this name before. She looked at Xiao Ling and said, “You’re Xiao Zhe’s little nephew!”
Xi Wan looked at her and was a little surprised. “Is he very famous?”
“Not really. It’s just that some rumors say that his stepmother doesn’t treat him well, so Xiao Zhe always takes Xiao Lin to his side during winter and summer vacations,” Lu Zhou whispered into Xi Wan’s ear.
“But it’s class time now. Why is he here?” Xi Wan was puzzled.
Lu Zhou was a little angry. “It must be his stepmother who’s abusing him again. Didn’t you hear him say he doesn’t want to go home?”
Xi Wan nodded. “Kid, I know your uncle, Xiao Zhe. If you’re willing, I can give him a call later and ask him to come here to pick you up.”
“…” Xiao Lin had just received the ice-cream from the waiter and was a little hesitant when he heard Xi Wan’s words. “Sister, is what you said true? Do you really know my uncle?”
Xi Wan and Lu Zhou nodded.
“I… Forget it.” Xiao Lin was tempted for a moment but he was a little scared when he thought about how his mother would be even angrier every time he returned from his uncle’s house.
Xi Wan looked at him for a while, then drank her milk tea and asked the system, “System, don’t Xiao Lin’s father care that his stepmother treats him like this?”
Could it be that Xiao Lin’s father was like her father and listened to his stepmother in everything?
“Of course, not. Xiao Lin’s father loved him very much. However, Xiao Lin’s father passed away in a car accident a year ago. Xiao Lin is now living with his stepmother. Since Xiao Ling’s father did not make a will, his father’s inheritance is now in the hands of his guardian who is his stepmother. Xiao Lin canonly inherit the inheritance when he becomes an adult.]
Xi Wan raised her eyebrows and did not say anything. She felt that if Xiao Zhe knew that his beloved nephew did not go to school today and was thrown here by his stepmother, Xiao Zhe would definitely leave Xiao Lin’s stepmother with nothing.
So, should she tell Xiao Zhe about this and help Xiao Lin escape from her stepmother?
“Sister Xi Wan, you don’t have to worry about me. Mom isn’t usually like this. It’s my fault today. I accidentally broke Mom’s favorite cup.” The boy smiled at Xi Wan. “Mom said that she would send someone to pick me up after school in the afternoon. I’ll be home soon!”
Xi Wan glanced at the clock hanging on the wall of the snack bar. It was already five o’clock in the afternoon. It was long past the time for school to end. If she had come, she would have come long ago. “If I say that I have a way to let your uncle raise you and let you stay away from your stepmother, will you be willing?”
When Xiao Lin heard Xi Wan’s words, his eyes lit up. He asked carefully with uncertainty, “Sister, is what you said true?”
“Of course. I don’t like to see children being mistreated.” Xi Wan said.
