After getting out of the car, ng Ke walked up and rang the doorbell.
A mont later, lights ca on inside the villa.
Two minutes later, the maid ca out to open the door. Seeing ng Ke standing outside, she looked around him and asked in surprise, "Mr. ng, are you alone? Isn’t our young lady with you?"
ng Ke’s gaze flickered a few tis before he replied gently, "Xiaoxiao went to Wen Ran’s house. Are your father and mother not ho? I saw the lights weren’t on earlier."
"They aren’t. It seems they went to watch an opera."
ng Ke frowned slightly, pondering whether it was such a coincidence or...
"Mr. ng, would you like to co in and sit for a while?"
"Oh, no, I won’t go in."
After getting back into the car, ng Ke glanced at the villa for a mont longer before starting the engine and driving away.

In an apartnt in the suburbs of G City
Xu Wanfei frowned, looking at Xu Wanqi, "Wanqi, do you really think doing this will make ng Ke co looking for you?"
"Cousin, Senior will co for , he definitely will."
Xu Wanqi said with great confidence.
"You must know that the person he likes is that bitch Bai Xiaoxiao. Your leaving only makes things easier for him."
Xu Wanfei gave her a glare, thinking she was blinded by love.
Xu Wanqi nonchalantly smiled and said mysteriously, "Cousin, I know a little secret about Senior, so he won’t abandon ."
"A secret?"
Xu Wanfei’s expression changed upon hearing that, looking sharply at Xu Wanqi, "What secret does ng Ke have?"
"It’s called a secret, so obviously, I can’t tell. I promised Senior that I wouldn’t tell anyone."
Otherwise, why would ng Ke be so good to her, taking ticulous care of her in the hospital, even against his parents’ wishes?
If not for needing Xu Wanfei to help play a role, Xu Wanqi wouldn’t have told her.
"Huh, what secret can’t be told?" Xu Wanfei was intrigued but frustrated with unfulfilled curiosity, showing displeasure.
Xu Wanqi smiled gently, taking an exquisite box out of the suitcase, "Cousin, look at this."
"What is it?"
"You’ll know when you open it."
It was a necklace. Xu Wanfei’s eyes widened in surprise when she saw it, "Wanqi, such a luxurious necklace, surely it wasn’t a gift from ng Ke?"
"Cousin, just help be with Senior, and this necklace is yours."
"Really?"
The surprise in Xu Wanfei’s eyes was replaced by joy, looking at Xu Wanqi in disbelief.
This necklace must be worth hundreds of thousands.
Even though ng Ke is rich, how could Xu Wanqi bear to give her such an expensive gift?
"Of course it’s true, cousin. When have I ever lied to you? This necklace is worth five hundred thousand. Even when you were with Xiao Yuting, he never gave you such a valuable gift, right?"
"The gifts he gave weren’t that much individually, but in total, he spent a good few hundred thousand on ."
Xiao Yuting was the most generous man Xu Wanqi had ever been with.
Other n barely gave her gifts worth a few tens of thousands.
"Hehe!"
Xu Wanqi just smiled without speaking.
Xu Wanfei stared at the necklace a few more tis, reluctantly closed the box, and asked Xu Wanqi, "Wanqi, how do you want to help you? Just say it, as long as it doesn’t involve killing or setting fires, I’ll help you."
"Cousin, don’t make it sound so scary, of course, there’s no killing or arson involved."
Xu Wanqi pondered for a mont, saying, "You should give Senior a call later, just say I left without saying a word, and you’re worried I might do sothing foolish."

Suburban villa, Mo family
After dinner, Bai Xiaoxiao played with the three children, while Wen Ran sat on the couch, watching her with gentle eyes.
"Momo, Xinxin, why don’t you co ho with godmother tonight?"
"Godmother, why don’t you stay over tonight?"
"Haha, Momo, you little trickster, it’s godmother who invited you to my house, how co you’re turning it around and asking not to go ho?"
Wen Ran couldn’t help but interject, "Xiaoxiao, Momo thinks going to your house at night is troubleso, so it’s better if you stay."
"Who taught you this?"
Bai Xiaoxiao laughed and asked.
Next to her, Ziyi’s young voice chid in, "Mom, I want to go to Uncle Qin’s house."
"Haha, Ziyi, go to godmother’s house, godmother will play with you every day."
When Bai Xiaoxiao heard Ziyi say this, she felt he was easier to coax away than Momo and Xinxin.
To her surprise, right after she said this, Ziyi shook his head firmly, "Godmother’s house has no sisters."
"..."
Bai Xiaoxiao’s mouth twitched, blocked by Ziyi’s words, unable to say a single word.
She didn’t dare to speak more, fearing Ziyi would say sothing inappropriate like last ti in the hospital.
"Ziyi, do you miss your sister again?"
Wen Ran beckoned to Ziyi, who obediently ca to the front of the sofa, looking up with his beautiful little face, expectantly at Wen Ran, "Mom, sister misses ."
"Pfft—"
Bai Xiaoxiao couldn’t hold back, letting out a laugh.
Wen Ran was also amused by Ziyi’s words, tenderly patting his head, "How do you know your sister misses you?"
"I called her this afternoon."
Ziyi’s pretty long lashes fluttered, answering truthfully.
"You know Uncle Qin’s phone number?"
"Yes, I do."
Ziyi answered very seriously.
He had called Uncle Qin using the ho phone that afternoon.
"Did Uncle Qin tell you that your sister misses you?"
Bai Xiaoxiao sat down beside Wen Ran, looking at Ziyi curiously.
"I heard her crying, she must miss . She never cries when I’m with her."
"Haha, Ziyi, if you keep talking, godmother will die of laughter..."
Bai Xiaoxiao was clutching her stomach, laughing, and speaking intermittently.
Wen Ran gave Bai Xiaoxiao a playful look, pulling Ziyi into her arms, whispering softly, "Ziyi, your Uncle Qin is very busy now, not only taking care of your sister but also Aunt An, he doesn’t have ti to take care of you."
"Granny An and Granny Qin are both there, they fight over my sister every day."
Ziyi’s focus was obviously not on what Wen Ran said.
Wen Ran’s lips twitched, "Since Granny An and Granny Qin are there, your little sister doesn’t need you to take care of her..."
"Mom, my sister misses ."
Ziyi lifted his head from her arms, with that little look on his face, it was clear he had to go.
"I can’t decide. How about this, go ask your dad upstairs. If he agrees, you can go, alright?"
As soon as Wen Ran finished speaking, Ziyi nodded imdiately, "Mom, I’ll go find Dad."
Then he turned and left.
Wen Ran watched Ziyi holding onto the railing, heading up the stairs step by step, her eyes involuntarily filled with warmth and motherly love.
"Ziyi, slow down, be careful not to fall."
"Mom, I won’t fall."
Bai Xiaoxiao laughed, nudging Wen Ran with her elbow, teasingly saying, "Ranran, I think you’re about to lose Ziyi."
