"Excuse me, can you move aside...?"

They were talking when someone ahead needed to pass by on a bike.

Fu Xianlin looked up and froze.

The person was also stunned, standing still with one foot on the ground for a long time. Suddenly, they tightened their grip on the handlebars and turned to leave.

"Mingzhu!"

The person rode away on the bike without looking back.

Yu Sangwan just realized, "Is that Auntie?"

"Yes!" Fu Xianlin nodded, "Let’s go after her! Your aunt hasn’t seen us for so many years, she must really not want to see us!"

"Wait."

Yu Sangwan grabbed her father’s arm and pointed to the ground.

Fu Xianlin looked and saw something had fallen from the bike.

Yu Sangwan bent down to pick it up; it was a bag with books... The words ’Moqu’ were printed on it. She waved it at her father, "Let’s go to this bookstore, Auntie won’t have gone far, and even if she’s late, she’ll have to return."

Fu Xianlin pressed his lips together and nodded, "You’re so attentive."

Yu Sangwan pulled the corners of her mouth up slightly. She wasn’t in the mood to accept her father’s compliments, and the joy of finding her aunt was offset by another feeling.

If she didn’t know anything, she could fight against Helian Shuang, but now? Not only her, but what if Jinxuan knew about her aunt... What would happen then? With the name of the bookstore, it would be easy to find.

However, when Fu Xianlin and Yu Sangwan walked into ’Moqu’... they never expected to run into someone they knew.

The person casually flipping through a book on the sofa, but always glancing toward the door... Who else but Lu Yusen?

"You!"

At a glance, Fu Xianlin’s anger rose.

Lu Yusen saw them too; he was startled and rose suddenly. "Mr. Fu, Wanwan?"

"You!" Fu Xianlin was very agitated, stepping forward to grab Lu Yusen by the collar, "You still have the nerve to come? Pretending in front of me for so long? How can your conscience bear it? After all these years, you still have the nerve to cling to Mingzhu?"

He grew more agitated as he spoke, "Mingzhu was the precious daughter of the Fu Family, and you let her be your mistress? Lu Yusen, today I’m going to beat you to death for being shameless!"

With that, he raised his fist towards Lu Yusen.

"Brother!"

Lu Yusen immediately changed his tone, blocking Fu Xianlin’s fist, "Don’t get so worked up! The matter between me and Mingzhu, it was her unwillingness to speak out back then! I’ve always wanted to divorce Helian Shuang... but you know the position of the Helian Family, it’s not that easy to divorce..."

"Indeed!"

Fu Xianlin sneered, "In the end, you toyed with Mingzhu, and you ruined the Fu Family! My daughter is wandering, suffering grievances!"

Lu Yusen looked ashamed, lowering his eyes, "Brother, all these years, I’ve been looking for Mingzhu... I lost feelings for Helian Shuang long ago, since Mingzhu’s accident, I’ve never forgotten her for a single day..."

Watching them talk about the past, Yu Sangwan remained silent.

She wasn’t actually interested in their past!

Yu Sangwan just found Lu Yusen strange. Now looking back, no wonder Jinxuan never got along with Lu Yusen...

That year on the island, she had met Lu Yusen. The relationship between Jinxuan and him was more than just icy!

Obviously, they had a thin father-son relationship.

Turns out there was such a history behind it!

"Mr. Lu!"

Yu Sangwan clenched her fist and suddenly shouted.

Both Lu Yusen and Fu Xianlin were startled, looking at her in shock, "Wanwan, what do you want to say?"

"Hmph." Yu Sangwan chuckled softly, shaking her head sarcastically, "You are elders, I know I have no right to blame you! But Mr. Lu, you keep mentioning my aunt... Have you ever thought that you are a husband, a father! Have you shown any concern for Jinxuan all these years?"

"Jinxuan?"

Lu Yusen was stunned, "Isn’t he... already?"

"Ha!"

Yu Sangwan’s heart turned cold, feeling so sorry for her husband!

"Mr. Lu, you’ve lived your whole life in your own world! Forgotten your responsibilities! Having a father like you is Jinxuan’s misfortune!"

Fu Xianlin worried about his daughter, "Taotao..."

Yu Sangwan shook her head, closing her eyes, "Elders! This is the kind of elders you are! Why should your mistakes become consequences for us to bear? This kind of mess is unbearable to listen to, Mr. Lu... What do you want Jinxuan to do?"

Her eyes heated, and tears seeped from the corners.

"Jinxuan?"

Lu Yusen looked puzzled, "Wanwan, what are you talking about?"

"You don’t even deserve to ask!"

Yu Sangwan took a deep breath, "How much concern have you given to your eldest son? He’s the eldest, but that’s no excuse to neglect him! Huh... Just because your feelings with Helian Shuang broke down, you even ignore him?"

"Wanwan." Lu Yusen panicked, "Jinxuan in the end..."

Yu Sangwan pressed her lips together, shook her head, and ran out.

She couldn’t meddle in the elders’ matters... she’s just incredibly heartbroken for Jinxuan now!

Why? Why treat him like this?

His father has always ignored him, and his mother, filled with hatred... only treats her son as a tool!

Yu Sangwan kept running along the path, not knowing where to go, stopping only at the intersection.

Standing at the bustling street corner, Yu Sangwan took out her phone and dialed Helian Si’s number.

"Wanwan."

Helian Si answered quickly, the speed... as if he’d been waiting for her call.

"Ah Si." Yu Sangwan choked, with a hint of coquettishness in her voice, "What are you doing? I... got lost."

"Huh?" Helian Si paused, rubbed his brow with a smile, "Turn on your phone’s location, I’ll come get you."

"Okay." Yu Sangwan nodded, "Come alone, no one else."

"Alright." Helian Si said just one word, without any hesitation.

...

When Helian Si arrived, Yu Sangwan was sitting on the curb, really looking like a lost child who couldn’t find her way home.

"Wanwan." Helian Si squatted down in front of her, his eyes gentle, "I’m here."

Yu Sangwan looked up at him, his features enveloped in intersecting light and shadow, handsome and profound.

"Hug..."

Yu Sangwan suddenly opened her arms, reaching to him.

"Hmm?" Helian Si was momentarily stunned, a smile spreading across his lips.

How long had it been? Since she was this close to him? Since Le Zhengsheng’s accident, he thought... she wouldn’t let him get close for a long time.

He smiled, bending over to pick her up, "Okay, hug..."

Then he asked, "Want me to lift you up high?"

"Yes." Yu Sangwan nodded, "I do!"

Helian Si gently held her, lifting her up, "Are you satisfied?"

"Not really." Yu Sangwan pouted, unable to suppress her laughter.

"It’s late." Helian Si looked up at her, "Weren’t you going home? How did you get lost here?"

"Ah Si..." Yu Sangwan didn’t answer the question, the thought made her heart ache, "I miss Qingming."

The implication of this... was to go to Guan Chao? Helian Si raised his eyebrows, secretly delighted, "Then... let’s go back."

"Yeah."

When they returned to Guan Chao, Little Mantou was already asleep.

Helian Si pulled Yu Sangwan to check Little Mantou’s homework.

"Ah..." Yu Sangwan looked at her son’s coursework and grades in amazement.
