Wang Hui and her sister, Wang Man, were busy in the kitchen when they heard the doorbell.
Wang Man's heart leaped with joy. She knew it must be her son returning. She raced to the door and opened it for Wen Gu.
The door opened, and indeed, she saw her son, whom she hadn't seen in years. Excited, she went forward and hugged him, repeatedly saying,
"You finally decided to come back and see your mother, you rascal."
Wen Gu was still a little unaccustomed to his mother's enthusiastic embrace. He didn't like getting too close to people!
He hadn't let his mother hug him since he began his education at the age of three. The Wen Family had always educated him with an elite mindset, and he was extremely strict from a young age.
He was never allowed the usual childish antics and rebellious behavior of ordinary children.
His grandfather only told him one thing: only if he became strong enough to no longer rely on any of the family's resources would he have the ability to be in charge of everything!
And now he'd done it!
Or rather, as long as he wanted to, he was now fully capable of overturning the Wen Family.
However, the Wen Family would be his sooner or later; it could only be his. Who would care about a little more money?
Wouldn't you agree?
Wen Gu patted his mother on the shoulder and then created some distance. His smile unchanged, he comforted her:
"I've been busy with work, but I'll come back to see you whenever I have time!"
Wang Hui also walked over from the kitchen to stand beside the mother and son. Seeing her nephew return, she was also very happy.
She couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "I haven't seen him in a few years, and my great nephew has become more and more handsome."
"Handsome features, noble temperament, and deep pockets..."
Wang Hui couldn't help but think of Sui Sui again, the little girl. She was so charming and beautiful, yet also gentle and quiet, like a painting.
It seemed like the two were a perfect match, a match made in heaven!
Sigh!
Her plan had failed before it even started, making her so frustrated she wanted to scratch her head.
Wang Hui sighed with emotion and shook her head, seeing the mother and son still at the door. She quickly called out,
"Oh, Wang Man, you two, don't stand at the door. Hurry up and wash your hands and eat."
Wang Man quickly wiped away her excited tears and welcomed her son inside.
Actually, Wen Gu never understood why his mother was willing to live in this small three-room apartment instead of returning to the Mansion.
In his opinion, it was cramped and stifling; he would never live in such an environment.
"Mom, I'm back. Let's take Aunt back to the Mansion. It's more convenient there."
Wang Man knew that her son was complaining about the small space, so she nodded, indicating that she was willing to go back with him.
As the eldest direct descendant of the Wen Family, her son had received a strict education since childhood, but his living environment had always been the most luxurious. It was normal that he wasn't used to her place.
After dinner, Wang Man and her sister cleaned the table. Wen Gu sat in the single sofa, unconsciously toying with a small pearl in his hand.
There were many pearls scattered around, but he only found this one!
The pink and white pearl was crystal clear and looked very beautiful under the light.
Seeing that little pearl, he couldn't help but think of the little girl's fair, pink face.
Because of the sudden change, she had widened her eyes in astonishment, round and dazed!
Like a sweet, soft little cake, making him want to eat her up in one bite!
When he encountered something he loved, he just had to eat it!
Eating her bite by bite, the two of them could become one, never to be separated again!
Never again like today, suddenly disappearing!!!
As if thinking of something, he made a phone call:
"Help me pull up the surveillance footage near the car accident on Shanhai Road at six o'clock this afternoon. I want to find someone!"
He had just hung up the phone when Wang Man and her sister sat down.
Wang Man sat not far from Wen Gu and asked cautiously, "Son, do you have a girlfriend?"
It wasn't surprising Wang Man was anxious. Her son was already twenty-eight. He rarely came back, but now that he finally had, she couldn't help but ask.
Wang Hui was also listening attentively. She still thought her nephew and Sui Sui were a perfect match!
If there was a chance, she still wanted to be a matchmaker for them!
A beauty not paired with a handsome man was a direct hit to people who valued looks!
What a waste of talent!
Wen Gu held up the pearl in his hand, lost in thought. He answered, "I have a target!"
"Mom, just you wait and see!"
Wang Hui: "..." Critical hit +1
Her matchmaking heart, shattered!
Wang Man didn't know her sister's thoughts at this moment. Hearing that her son had a goal, she was extremely happy.
"Good, good, good, as long as you have a goal, that's great!"
Now that he had a goal, she wasn't worried. She was afraid her son would be affected by her unhappy marriage and not intend to marry!
Actually, Wen Gu really didn't have any intention of getting married. He was an extreme non-marriage advocate; everything he had belonged to him alone.
Marriage and a wife were not within his considerations!
Even if he was interested in a girl now, what did that even mean?
Wang Hui's heart shattered again and again, even the joy of Wen Gu's return was washed away!
Who understood the regrets of someone who judged on appearance!
Sui Sui accepted Xu Rui's friend request, and then received a string of text:
"Hello, little sister Sui Sui, I am Xu Rui. Grandma asked me to bring you some fruit. I will probably arrive in D City on Saturday afternoon. Send me your address, and I will deliver it to your home directly."
Sui Sui instinctively didn't really want to send the address, but remembering Grandma's words, she only sent the location of the community!
She didn't send the specific home address!
"Thank you, Brother Xu Rui, thank you for your trouble!"
Over there, Xu Rui quickly replied, "No trouble at all. We're all from the same place, it's what we should do. I'll contact you when I get back!"
Sui Sui replied, "Okay! Thank you!"
Xu Rui looked at Sui Sui's WeChat profile picture, which was a very cute British Shorthair cat. It looked a lot like the one in Sui Sui's grandmother's arms, plump and round, very adorable.
It was very similar to the chubby, cute little girl in his memory.
He just didn't know if Sui Sui was still as plump and cute as before, after so many years.
Sui Sui had always lived with her grandmother in a village in Yun Province when she was little, carefree and happy, and her grandmother made delicious food for her every day.
So, she was plump and jade-like since she was a child, as cute as a little lucky doll!
However, after Sui Sui was taken to the city by her parents at the age of eight, he didn't know if it was because of the change in environment or for some other reason, but she suddenly lost a lot of weight.
Later, after her parents divorced, she was sent back to her paternal grandmother's home in the countryside. Unfortunately, no matter how much her grandmother fed her, she could never regain the plumpness of her childhood.
Later, Sui Sui finally understood that before the age of eight, she might have been experiencing "happy fat." With loving and doting parents and a caring grandmother, how could a child bathed in love not be happily plump?
Unfortunately, later, her parents' marriage fell apart, and everything changed!
Perhaps because of the call from her grandmother, Sui Sui thought about the past again. She shook her head, trying to shake off all her worries.
Tomorrow is the weekend, and it's another sunny day. It seems like a great day to go see the sea!
Every time this happened, Sui Sui would go to see the sea, listen to the wind, and feel nature. All her unhappiness would be completely forgotten!
But this time, it seemed she had encountered a bigger "trouble" while watching the sea and listening to the wind!
