"Mom, can we go home?"

Seeing Su Caiwei come in, Su Yuan, with a smile on her face, made a request. The young girl had just been bitten by a venomous snake, but she had forgotten the pain and felt that her leg was almost fine, even though it was still swollen and wrapped up like a dumpling. She was sure there was no danger to her life.

Su Caiwei glanced at her affectionately and nodded helplessly, "Alright, if you don't want to stay here, then we'll go home!" As she spoke, she handed Su Yuan the cane that was already prepared and leaning against the wall.

Su Yuan's face involuntarily turned bitter. She took the cane and struggled to get out of bed.

"Xiao Yuan, be careful!"

"It's fine, it's not that hard..." As soon as her leg touched the ground, the sensation immediately turned into excruciating pain due to the extremely sensitive nerves. She groaned in pain and almost fell to the ground.

"Mom, I'm disabled now..." The toughness she had just shown was gone. At this moment, she felt very much like a "disabled person." She lifted her face, her eyes clear and bright, looking at Su Caiwei with a determined expression.

Seeing her expression, Su Caiwei chuckled and supported her, saying, "You've learned your lesson, haven't you? Let's see if you'll be naughty again!"

Su Caiwei always believed in the idea of "moderate training for children," so she was happy to see Su Yuan suffer a bit. However, there should be a limit to this. This time, being bitten by a venomous snake was a bit too much, and it made her feel heartache.

Seeing her mother actually adding to her misery, Su Yuan pouted, made a couple of sounds, and, with the help of the cane, walked out of the ward with Su Caiwei's support.

Outside, the sun was shining brightly, the wind was gentle, and the temperature was around twenty degrees, making it very pleasant.

Many people who left the hospital had the illusion that they felt much better after leaving, as if the hospital itself was a huge machine that devoured life and spirit.

In the parking lot, a very beautiful car was parked in front of them. It was a white Audi TT, elegant and graceful, which made Su Yuan's eyes sparkle with admiration. Almost no one disliked beautiful cars; the love for cars was not a禁区 (forbidden zone) divided by poverty or wealth.

Seeing her reaction, Su Caiwei smiled and opened the door for her, then carefully helped her in.

"Mom, where did you get this car?"

Inside the car, Su Yuan, sitting in the passenger seat, threw the cane onto the back seat and asked enthusiastically.

Su Caiwei smiled and said, "Who else's could it be? Of course, it's mine!"

Su Yuan looked at her with surprise and then nodded, showing a mature expression as if she understood. After a series of shocks, Su Yuan's nerves had become very strong. Perhaps she had already been prepared for the sudden appearance of a car, so she was not surprised when told that the car belonged to her mother.

As the owner of Su Meng Culture, with a net worth of several billion, it would be strange if Su Caiwei did not have a car. Relatively speaking, an Audi TT already showed her low-key style.

Su Yuan nodded without comment. She did not delve into the details of what Su Caiwei had been doing outside for the past ten years, as these were not things that could be explained in a few words. When the time was right, Su Caiwei would certainly tell her.

Curiosity kills the cat. Having been hurt once, Su Yuan tried to remain calm, thinking that her mother must have her reasons. She then looked out the window with interest.

The car gradually left the city and sped along the road leading to the suburbs under Su Caiwei's driving.

"Mom, we're going the wrong way!" Seeing the surroundings become so unfamiliar, Su Yuan realized it and quickly told Su Caiwei, "This isn't the way home!"

"No, this is the way home."

Su Caiwei turned and smiled elegantly, and Su Yuan looked at her suspiciously without saying a word.

After about twenty minutes, the Audi TT arrived in a suburban area, with undeveloped land on both sides, far from any villages. The car passed through a small artificial forest and a huge archway, gradually approaching a cluster of villas...

"Here!!" Seeing the outside, Su Yuan's eyes widened in surprise. She had been here just a few days ago, and it turned out to be the "village" where Ji Ye Hao lived.

On both sides were European-style villas, with green plants everywhere, creating a pleasant and relaxing environment.

"Xiao Yuan, this is our former home. Do you remember when you were little, you grew up here?" Su Caiwei suddenly said, and her words hit Su Yuan like a hammer, making her pause. Then, fragments of forgotten memories began to surface in her mind.

When she was little... did she really live here?

She suddenly understood why she felt familiar when she came back with Ye Hao. She thought it was just a déjà vu, but it was actually because she had indeed lived here!

The car slowed down and finally stopped about two hundred meters from Ji Ye Hao's villa.

Pressing the remote control, the iron gate in front slowly opened. Su Yuan got out of the car and looked curiously at the "familiar" surroundings.

In the courtyard, there was a small flower bed with many unknown flowers blooming in competition. Although the flowers were beautiful, they could not suppress Su Yuan's curiosity. With Su Caiwei's support, she entered the villa and looked around, noticing that the layout was very similar to Ji Ye Hao's, suggesting they were built at the same time.

Su Yuan noticed that the rooms were clean and tidy, with the floors, tables, and windows spotless, indicating that there was someone responsible for cleaning.

"Xiao Yuan, you'll stay here for the next few days. Mom has work to do during the day and can't take care of you, but I'll come to see you in the evening. Get familiar with the place; you haven't been back for over ten years, so you've probably forgotten a lot..." Su Caiwei led her on a tour of the house, explaining as they walked.

"By the way, if you need anything, remember to ask Aunt Wang. She's our housekeeper here."

Not long after, a simply dressed woman returned from outside. Seeing Su Caiwei and Su Yuan, she nodded respectfully, "Miss, this must be the young mistress. Indeed, she is a beautiful child. I'll prepare dinner for you right away."

After Aunt Wang left, Su Caiwei smiled and said, "This is Aunt Wang. She has been taking care of this house for over ten years."

Nodding in confusion, Su Yuan couldn't understand her mother's thinking. Having such a good house and not living in it herself, but instead finding someone to take care of it, she criticized her mother in her mind, thinking she was wasteful!

Putting this thought aside, she asked curiously, "Mom, this place seems very special. How many families live here?"

"About fifty or so. People rarely interact with each other. I used to come here often ten years ago, but I gradually came less often."

Su Caiwei had a nostalgic look on her face and began to tell Su Yuan about the past.

That evening, Su Yuan and Su Caiwei had dinner at their "new home." Although Aunt Wang looked like a rural woman and was plain in appearance, her cooking skills quickly won over Su Yuan. She wondered if her mother chose Aunt Wang to take care of the house because of her cooking skills.

After dinner, Su Caiwei, with a mischievous look, took Su Yuan into the bathroom. Given Su Yuan's leg injury, she became Su Caiwei's "plaything." After a fragrant bath, they carried Su Yuan back to the room.

Huihe International Building.

On the tenth floor, the office of Su Meng Culture.

Qin Lanqing had just finished the morning's work and saw that it was almost eleven. She stretched and rubbed her shoulders.

"Knock, knock, knock!" The sound of knocking on the door.

"Come in!" Seeing her business secretary, Qin Lanqing asked curiously, "Is there something?"

"President Qin, there are two people outside who specifically want to see you."

"See me?" Qin Lanqing smiled in surprise and said calmly, "Do they have an appointment?"

"They don't have an appointment, but they claim to be from Donghai Fuxi and say they have important cooperation to discuss with you personally." Before she could finish, Qin Lanqing waved her hand and said, "Didn't I tell you not to let people in without an appointment?"

"I'll tell them that President Qin is busy." The secretary was about to leave.

"Wait!" Qin Lanqing thought for a moment, "Since they're already here, arrange for them to have a meal on the third floor. After the meal, I'll talk to them."

Qin Lanqing was somewhat interested in these two people from Donghai Fuxi.

She had already clearly rejected them last time, yet they still came to the headquarters of Su Meng Culture. Were they relying on something, or were they just being persistent?
