It was all his fault! This man just didn't know how to cherish a beauty. He knew she couldn't walk well, but he insisted on pulling her out of the car. She bit her lip and strained her legs, trying to...However, there's a kind of thought that once it takes root in someone's heart, it grows like a seed, sprouts, and constantly reminds them of its existence. [..tw 超多好看的小說]

Xiao Youyou has now appeared in Jiang Mu's field of vision, and she even moved her heart, causing Jiang Mu to let go of some difficulties. Even though the child's mother is Lin Meng!

Chinese New Year can be the most lively time of year, but it can also be the saddest. Every festive occasion reminds people of their loved ones, and at this moment, the pain of being apart from them for four years intensifies exponentially. Mother Jiang thought of Little Youyou, his innocent features, his tender arms and legs, missing the warmth of him lying in her arms, his crisp voice, and the unconscious way he inherited some of Jiang Po's mannerisms. She fidgeted restlessly as a result.

After enduring two days of staying home, she desperately told herself that was Lin Meng's child and she should stay far away from the mother and son for her whole life. But all these attempts to convince herself ultimately failed to sway her own heart. She used to be a strong woman, managing a large company and the wife of a deputy director. However, five years of longing gradually wore down her inner resilience, making her soft and prone to melancholy. Therefore, when a glimmer of hope, like a tiny spark, appeared, it brought her a sense of warmth and comfort throughout her body.

She still took action. After finding out Xiao Youyou's current residence, she went out, sat in the driver's car, wearing sunglasses, as if she were a secret agent undertaking some shady operation. She asked the driver to stop the car outside the courtyard of the Ruan family, at least ten meters away from it. She hid in the car, looking into the yard through her sunglasses and the dark glass windows.

The courtyard was eerily quiet, not a single soul in sight. Two trees planted in the courtyard quickly caught her eye. She then cast her gaze upwards, but unfortunately, there wasn't that mischievous little one who wanted to be a koala this time!

Such a wait is actually pointless, because there's a high probability of nothing coming from it. If she really wanted to see the boy, she should get out of the car and go directly to knock on his door. But because of her hatred for Lin Meng in her heart, she can't let go of her pride. All she can do is sit in the car, waiting and thinking, just for that slim chance of a pitiful encounter!

Time, it slipped away so quietly, unknowingly three hours had passed; unknowingly, the sky had darkened slightly.

"Madam, it's getting late, shouldn't we head back" Driver Lao Zhang suggested.

Jiang's mother shook her head, not wanting to leave just yet. At the very least, she had to get a look at that young boy!

Perhaps, Heaven was truly moved by her sincerity. After about ten minutes, a car stopped outside the Ruan family's small courtyard. The moment the car door opened, a spirited child jumped out.

Jiang Mu's eyes lit up, her body uncontrollably leaning towards the glass window, her entire face almost pressed against the car window as if afraid of missing a detail. She deliberately ignored Lin Meng who followed closely behind the little boy. Her eyes, greedy and intense, were fixed on the child. The little boy was grinning, revealing a set of pearly white teeth, like a sticky rice cake, simply adorable. His small mouth kept moving, opening and closing as if talking, though what he was saying remained unknown. It was clear, however, that he was overjoyed. And those two shiny black eyes, resembling grapes freshly plucked from water, glistened with delight.

Then, the little boy waved his arms, as if practicing some martial arts stance. Afterwards, when another woman got out of the car, the little boy dashed a few steps back, spread his legs, and crouched into a horse stance, with a determined expression on his face, he energetically gestured two moves towards the woman.

Jiang Mu's lips unconsciously curved upwards. She was quite similar to Xiao Lang in her mischievousness. When Xiao Lang was young, he also practiced martial arts adorably!

The girl said a few words, and the little boy accepted the moves, beaming.

Suddenly, the little boy's dark eyes swept over her. Jiang Mu was slightly startled and began to feel a bit flustered, as if she had been seen through by the little boy. The little boy's gaze only lingered for a couple of seconds before he looked away. Jiang Mu started to smile wryly, feeling that her actions were really over the top. She sat in the car, no one outside could see her, let alone a child!

Even though I think that way, there's always a bit of mixed feeling in my heart! And even secretly hoping that this little one sees it, wouldn't it be great Then, the little one should probably come over, right!

The little guy ruthlessly crushed her tiny fantasies. He turned away, only giving her his back, his small hands fumbling as if trying to pull at the shopping bag in Lin Meng's hands!

She let out a sigh, a sound that echoed in her own ears and made her feel utterly weary. She lowered her gaze slightly, took off her sunglasses, and leaned back against the car seat with her eyes closed. Some slender fingers gently followed over her slightly furrowed brow, rubbing it soothingly.

She was muddled, thinking: What's the point of seeing it! What can it change! It wasn't yours to begin with, it never will be! What's lost is lost! So why bother coming…

"Ring ring ring..."

A sudden knock on the door pulled her forcefully back from the sea of chaos. She looked out the car window irritably, but through the glass she saw nothing! She frowned.

Then, there was another knock, "du du du..." It was so clear, right beside her ear, it couldn't have been a hallucination!

Her expression darkened, her brow furrowing slightly, and the authority of the official's wife was immediately apparent.

"What's going on!" His stern voice also carried authority.

The driver, Lao Zhang, immediately replied respectfully, "Ma'am, it must be that child who came looking for you!"

Child! Jiang Mu was puzzled, which child!

Just then, a childish voice, as clear and bright as a bird's song, rang out. "Is there anyone in the car!"

This familiar voice, unique to that little rascal, Jiang's mother had heard it once and would never forget it, nor could she possibly mistake it!

She was both surprised and excited, almost jumping out of her seat. At that moment, she felt a flutter in her heart, as if anticipating some major life event!

“Strange, there’s no one in the car!” The little boy muttered to himself, sounding like he was about to leave. Jiang Mu immediately panicked, without thinking much, hurriedly pulled open the car door and shouted unsteadily, "Someone! Someone!...."

Then, that smiling face of the little guy, with a dazzling brilliance of sunlight, flashed into her eyes.

"Hehe, Grandma was really in the car! Yoyo remembers that Grandma last time came out of this car, hehe, I was right. Mumble, here you go, Yoyo brought you some food!"

Saying that, the little boy took a few steps forward with his legs, holding two small hands around a big red apple much bigger than both of his palms combined, and he brought it to her face, shoving it into her hand without saying a word.

Her heart clenched suddenly, a mixture of pain and bitterness, she felt like crying. Her hand froze there!

The little boy, seeing this, immediately bent his small body and crept into the car, placing the big apple on her lap. Then he grinned cheekily and ran away.

Mother Jiang instinctively reached out to grab his little arm. But the small figure, nimble like a little rabbit, dodged her grasp and hopped away, getting further and further from her. Only the slightly cold apple between his legs reminded her that he had been there!

She reached out and squeezed the apple tighter, watching as the little boy had run to Lin Meng's side from afar. Then, he grinned and pointed at her with his finger, saying something to Lin Meng. She didn't want to see that girl, so she immediately slammed the car door shut, enveloping herself in the dark metal shell of the car, hiding behind a facade.

Lin Meng gave her a slight nod and, holding the little one's hand, walked into the courtyard. She looked at the intertwined big hands and small hands, from envy to glaring, to sadness, to gloom, and in the end, all she could utter was a long, low sigh.

"Go back!"

The car started, and she lowered her head. But her gaze was fixed entirely on the large apple. Recalling the few words the little one had said to her, she held the apple tighter!

Little one, do you still remember her!

It was he who discovered her!

What a clever child! After just seeing it once, he remembered the car and her. He even followed her to find her door!

This wit, it's so much like Xiao Lang!

There must be some kind of connection between the little guy and her, right! It's like... a fated bond!

Thoughts drifted, after a long while, almost arriving at the Jiang Residence, a sudden flash of heat appeared in Madam Jiang's eyes!

Perhaps, the little one should really call her grandma!

He family's probe into Rong Ling ultimately showed that Rong Ling was not an easy person to control! Feng Tan's withdrawal halfway and no longer using newspapers to support He Ya also prevented the He family's plan from proceeding smoothly. Although He Ya is a wealthy daughter, there's no way around it. You are a wealthy daughter and Rong Ling are on the same newspaper page together, so you have to let Rong Ling be responsible. If the He family presses too hard for this, it would make other noble families laugh! At that time, more women from other families who couldn't get grapes would say that grapes were sour, and they would probably slander He Ya more, saying that she didn't have the slightest dignity and self-respect of a wealthy daughter, forcing herself to marry into the Rong family, which was simply degrading her value!

He still needs a foothold in Kyoto, and He Ya has to live her life. The most important thing for a prestigious family is face. The He family can't afford to lose face for now. Therefore, the path of forced marriage has to be temporarily put on hold.

He Ya is a smart woman, and she has a team of very intelligent women behind her, so she quickly changed her battle strategy. Upon learning that Rong Ling had been attacked, she came to visit him!

When she arrived, Lin Meng was also there. This was something He Ya absolutely had to see, otherwise, her performance wouldn't be convincing!

"Brother Rong, such a big thing happened, why didn't you tell me a word!" He Yajiao rebuked, plopping down on the head of Rong Ling's bed. Looking at Rong Ling's eyes, as clear as water, that gentleness was impossible to resist.

Lin Meng, sitting on the other side of the bed, suddenly felt a little bored. She lowered her eyes slightly, but she didn't want to leave! Because she left, it made her seem like she was defeated in front of He Ya!

Rong Ling didn't expect He Ya to come back. He felt a bit alienated by her friendly tone, though he kept his face impassive.

"It's nothing major, no need to make a fuss about it!" he said nonchalantly. He was right, after all. He wasn't seriously hurt; despite getting a few stitches, he could have been out of bed already. If not for tying Lin Meng down to come visit him often, if not for enjoying her gentle care, he guessed he would have jumped out of bed long ago and wouldn't be so pathetically stuck there every day, feeling like his body was rusting away!

As his gaze shifted, he looked over at Lin Meng who was hanging her head on the side. This little woman had a faint expression, and he couldn't tell what she was thinking. He felt a little worried. These past few days, although he could coax her with a little trickery, he could also sense this little woman's ambiguity. Every evening, this little woman always wanted to leave, not at all like she wanted to stay with him under the same blanket. Thinking back to that night, this little woman definitely still had some thoughts about it. He couldn't explain either; the messy state of mind he was in back then hadn't even been figured out by himself until now, so he just hoped time would dilute everything. Therefore, during this period, there couldn't be any accidents! So, he wanted to send He Ya away!

But he couldn't just be reckless and drive her away, after all, this was his sister who he watched grow up, the one who had been by his side for the past four years, supporting him every step of the way.

So, he could only put on a facade of coldness and silence, maintaining his taciturn demeanor!

He Yajiao looked at this scene, a cold smile in her heart, both angry and resentful! Why, would Lin Meng, that woman, become special! She had been with so many men, her reputation was so bad, why, could she still captivate Rong Ling's heart after four years! She was even the proper Mrs. Rong, a woman under another man's name!

How hateful!

This thorn, she must pull it out!

He Ya told herself in her heart that even if she became Rong Ling's legal wife, she would absolutely not allow Lin Meng to become Rong Ling's concubine. Such a woman, if she existed, would only ruin her marriage completely!

No matter how much resentment she harbored in her heart, He Ya's exquisitely crafted face, resembling that of an angel, remained unchanged. It still held a beautiful and delicate charm, like that of a noble and elegant princess!

"Brother Rong, can I speak to you alone!"

She politely looked at Rong Ling, her eyes subtly glancing at Lin Meng before returning to him. Rong Ling was just thinking about getting He Ya to leave sooner, and thought that since she said this, it must be for something important, probably finishing the discussion would allow her to leave. This suited him perfectly, so he agreed.

"Mumu, go outside for a bit!"

Lin Meng slowly stood up, a smile on her face, and walked out leisurely. But after leaving the room, she didn't stop her steps, but continued to walk outward. That man was going to talk business with his girlfriend, what kind of commotion was she causing! The legitimate girlfriend was here, what did she still need to be this useless mother-in-law! He had personally asked her to come out, so why should she stay!

Just let this man and his girlfriend stay together!

A person's tolerance has its limits! She can't just sit around and wait foolishly! He will continue his recklessness, while she will strive to be a good Mrs. Ruan.

When she takes off Lady Ruan's hat, she'll settle the score with him properly!y Xiaoyou. Unexpectedly, she saw a person who instantly made her feel complicated – Jiang's mother! She didn't know how Jiang's mother found this place, nor did she expect that Jiang's mother would ha...
