“It’s okay. You’re overthinking it. Su Zhi’en is the doctor that Master Jiang hired from abroad. Don’t be nervous, Aunt Lin. You just need to take good care of Master Jiang and Jiang Wei. Don’t let them get sick.”

Tong Jingxian resumed her gentle tone. At this moment, all of her anger had seemingly subsided. She began comforting the maid instead. Tong Jingxian sounded gentle and virtuous.

Hearing this, Aunt Lin immediately stopped worrying and recomposed herself. “I don’t know what Master Jiang is thinking. You are such a good person, Miss Tong. Why did Master Jiang forbid you from coming to Fu Mansion?

“You looked after this place well. Whenever Master Jiang would come home, there would be hot meals prepared for him. You even took excellent care of Young Master Jiang’s living arrangements. Why is Master Jiang so fickle-minded?”

“It’s alright, Aunt Lin, it’s all my fault. I don’t blame them.”

“Why do you say that? Young Master Jiang is an only child. He’s spoiled, stubborn, and disobedient. Which child doesn’t need to be disciplined from time to time? Don’t worry, Miss Tong. I’ll convince Master Jiang to let you return to Fu Mansion as soon as possible.” This was the last thing Aunt Lin said to Tong Jingxian before hanging up the phone.

As soon as Aunt Lin hung up the phone, Tong Jingxian began to smile. Her expression resembled a venomous snake, cold and malicious, and it would make people shudder at the sight of it.

When Su Zhi’en returned to her rental apartment, Aunt Su had already left. Aunt Su had even left some food for Su Zhi’en. The two children had also gone to bed early.

“My dear babies. Mommy has let you down again.” When Su Zhi’en saw her children sleeping soundly, she felt guilty. She quickly removed her shoes and went into her children’s room. As Su Zhi’en pushed the door open, she whispered, “Yu’an, Yuning, are you asleep?” 

“Mommy, you’re finally home,” Bai Yu’an answered as he was still awake.

Su Zhi’en felt even more guilty. She hugged Bai Yu’an tightly in her arms. “I’m sorry, Yu’an. It’s all my fault. After I’m done here, I promise that I will bring you and your sister back to Country R as soon as possible, okay?”

Bai Yu’an nodded obediently. “Okay, Mommy. You don’t have to worry. Just focus on your work. I will take good care of Yuning.”

Su Zhi’en began to feel even more upset. She hugged Bai Yu’an and made a promise to him, reminding herself that she could no longer ignore her children. Bai Yu’an and Bai Yuning were also her children. Su Zhi’en then coaxed her son to sleep and returned to her room.

However, as soon as she closed the door, Bai Yu’an opened his eyes again. He wasn’t sleepy at all. “Mommy must have been harassed by that evil man again. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have said those words all of a sudden. Why is that evil man constantly harassing my mother? Even if you are my real dad, I will never forgive you for this!” Bai Yu’an clenched his fists.

The following day, because Bai Yuning and her brother were going to a new kindergarten, Su Zhi’en woke up early to make their favorite breakfast. “Yuning, wake up! Yu’an is waiting for you. He’s already prepared to go to kindergarten.”

“No, he’s not. Yu’an isn’t up yet. I’m going back to sleep for a little while more.”

The children loved to stay in bed, and whenever they heard their mother’s voice, they would become even more pampered. Although the children didn’t say it aloud, they missed their mother so much that they returned to being regular children. Bai Yuning began to play tricks on her mother, so she immediately curled up in her blanket, like a little worm inside a cocoon.

When Su Zhi’en noticed this, she didn’t pull the blanket off. Instead, she began to tickle her daughter’s little neck. Su Zhi’en immediately heard the sound of giggling coming from under the blanket.

Bai Yu’an was much more trouble-free, however. From the moment Su Zhi’en opened the door, he had already quickly gotten up. After changing into his uniform, he went straight into the bathroom. Half an hour later, Su Zhi’en and her children were finally ready to head out.

“Mommy, when will you come to pick us up? Make sure you’re not late this time!” Bai Yu’an looked at his mother, who had hurriedly brought him and his sister to the car, with a sad expression on her face.

When Su Zhi’en heard this, she quickly promised her son, “I won’t be late this time. Mommy will arrive on time to pick you two up.”

Bai Yu’an and Bai Yuning, sitting in the car’s back seat, looked at each other and smiled in tacit understanding. They only needed to know that their mother would arrive at the appointed time so that they would have enough time to execute their plan. ‘Just you wait, you evil man. Bai Yu’an is coming to have a little chat with you!’

As for Su Zhi’en, she still had to go to Fu Mansion.

Meanwhile, Jiang Chen woke up from his sleep, feeling good.

Su Zhi’en planned to continue treating Jiang Chen, but as she entered the pharmacy, she received a message from Ming Ze. “Madam Su, Director Jiang is awake. Please come to Fu Mansion immediately!”

Su Zhi’en looked at the message on her phone and urged the staff member at the pharmacy to quickly hand her the medicine before rushing over to Fu Mansion.

Jiang Chen had slept exceedingly well last night. It was the first time he could sleep so soundly after many years. Therefore, Jiang Chen was in a better mood today. “Pass this message on.. There will be a company meeting in exactly half an hour!”
