Lin Feng immediately grabbed Vivian's wrist, his tone urgent:

"There's no time to lose, I'll drive Dian Dian to the hospital right now. Vivian, come with me!"

Vivian nodded vigorously.

Lin Feng bent down and picked up Dian Dian, who was completely absorbed in pretending to be sick, while firmly holding Vivian's wrist with his other hand.

The two of them disappeared from Su Wan and Xiao Linche's sight in a flash, as if their feet were oiled.

Su Wan stood there, stunned, and blinked:

Weren't those two people and the dog running a little too fast?

Before I could think about it, my phone suddenly rang.

Two words popped up on the screen—Aying.

Su Wan answered the phone, and immediately Ah Ying's anxious voice came from the other end:

"Sister Wan, the people from the neighborhood committee are here. They say they need your signature to process the street vendor registration!"

As Su Wan bent down to pull Lin Che into her arms, she spoke into her phone:

"Bring the documents over. I'm at home. I'll send you the address right away."

After hanging up the phone, she picked up little Lin Che:

"Come on, Mommy will take you to the door to wait for Aunt Ying."

Lin Che nodded obediently, his little face nestled against her shoulder.

........................

Twenty minutes later, outside the mansion gate.

Aying stood in front of the wrought iron gate, looking up at the magnificent European-style castle mansion before her, her mouth agape in an "O" shape, frozen in place for a long time.

Behind him were four people: Aque, Xiao Ren, Lao Zhou, and Xiao Lin, each carrying some fruit and snacks.

They had originally planned to bring something when they came to visit, but when they arrived at the door, they all looked up with an unanimous expression of shock.

"This...this is Sister Wan's house?" A-Que pinched Xiao Ren's arm, and Xiao Ren hissed in pain.

Old Zhou's voice was a little unsteady: "Have we gone to the wrong place? This isn't home, this is an estate."

Xiao Lin swallowed hard: "Look at the address, this is the place Sister Wan posted."

The five people stood at the door, looking at each other, none of them daring to ring the doorbell first.

After hesitating for a long time, Aying took out her phone and dialed Su Wan's number:

"Sister Wan... are you sure you didn't send the wrong house number? We're already at the door, this... this is too much!"

Su Wan's laughter came from the other end of the phone: "I didn't send it to the wrong person. Come in, I've already opened the door."

The moment the words left her lips, the door swung open, and Su Wan appeared behind it.

She was holding a little baby in her arms. The baby had a chubby face and round, curious eyes that looked out, while the chubby little hands were tugging at her collar.

The five people hesitated at the door for two seconds before filing in.

Ah Que looked around and exclaimed in admiration, "Sister Wan, your house is so luxurious!"

Ah Ying added, "It's like we've accidentally wandered into the imperial palace!"

Su Wan was amused by them, steadily supporting the child with one hand while casually swinging the other:

"You're exaggerating. It's just a slightly larger villa."

Kobayashi shook his head and exclaimed, "This isn't a villa, it's a castle!"

"Sister Wan, you're like a princess living in a castle! I'm so envious!"

Looking at the chubby-cheeked little guy in Su Wan's arms, Old Zhou immediately smiled and leaned over, extending a finger to tease him:

"Oh, young master, you're quite a handsome young man. Come, shake hands with your uncle—"

Before he could finish speaking, Kobayashi Che grabbed his index finger.

Old Zhou's smile was still on his lips when an unexpected force suddenly surged up from his fingertips.

He hissed reflexively and quickly pulled his hand back, managing to free himself after two attempts, leaving several faint red marks on his knuckles.

He shook his hand and looked at Su Wan with disbelief:

"How can this little guy be so strong?"

Su Wan glanced down at Lin Che, who was still clenching his little fists in her arms, completely unaware of what was happening, and her tone carried a hint of habitual amusement:

"He has superhuman strength; even the nannies in the family are afraid of being grabbed by him."

Old Zhou and the others looked at each other in astonishment.

A-Que took two steps closer, looking at Lin Che with surprise:

"This baby is so small, you can't tell... imagine how amazing she'll be when she grows up!"

Su Wan laughed and replied, "My family joked that I don't need to worry about my future anymore; just send me to the weightlifting team, and I'll be guaranteed a gold medal."

Xiao Ren peeked inside half a step: "Sister Wan, could you show us around for a little while? Just for a little while!"

Su Wan looked up at them and smiled, "No problem, let's go."

Walk along a cobblestone path lined with neatly trimmed garden shrubs, then step through the three-meter-high oak gate—

Upon entering, everyone was stunned.

The hall, with its nearly six-meter-high ceiling, is adorned with crystal chandeliers that refract dappled light. The mosaic marble floor is gleaming, and several oil paintings that look incredibly valuable hang on the walls on either side. In the center stands a large sofa, next to a grand piano.

Ah Ying's steps felt unsteady, and she subconsciously lightened her pace, as if a slight heavier step would shatter the luxurious atmosphere that filled the room.

Ah Que gripped Xiao Ren's sleeve tightly and whispered:

"Are we... like Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden?"

Xiao Ren nodded vigorously: "Almost there."

Su Wan gave the five people a brief tour of the first floor—the living room, the side hall, the tea room, and a sunroom made entirely of glass, filled with various green plants and flowers.

As I passed by the greenhouse, I saw Xia Ning playing with Xiao Zhixia inside. Zhixia was holding a small daisy in her hand.

Xia Ning looked up and nodded politely to the group, then smiled.

Aying quietly tugged at Su Wan's sleeve: "Are those your sisters?"

Su Wan's expression stiffened for a moment, then she nodded with a faint smile: "Yes, they are family."

Su Wan didn't say much and continued leading the group forward.

Turning the corner of the corridor, Leng Meng walked towards us, holding Xiao Jiayao in her arms. The little girl was babbling and playing with Leng Meng's hair.

When Leng Meng saw Su Wan approaching with a group of people, she raised an eyebrow and asked, "Your friend?"

Su Wan nodded: "Yes, my colleagues from the last dungeon are now starting a business together."

Leng Meng hummed in response, nodded slightly to the group as a greeting, and then left with the child in her arms.

Looking at Leng Meng's retreating figure, A Que muttered to herself, "She has such a strong aura..."

Su Wan smiled but didn't offer any further explanation.

The group chatted and laughed as they walked into the living room and sat down. Ah Ying took out some materials from her bag, flipped through them, and handed them to Su Wan.

"Sister Wan, just this page, please sign your name."

Su Wan took the pen, bowed her head, signed it neatly, and handed the document back.

Ah Ying put away the materials, looked around, and couldn't help but ask:

"Sister Wan, where's Brother Feng? I haven't seen him anywhere."

As Su Wan poured tea for the group, she casually replied:

"His dog got sick, so he rushed it to the vet."

Ah Ying nodded, stood up, and straightened her clothes:

"Alright, Sister Wan, we won't bother you any longer—"

Su Wan quickly raised her hand to stop her:

"What's the rush? Since you're already here, stay for dinner."

"You've all worked hard these past few days, so let's treat this as a team-building activity to relax."

As soon as he finished speaking, five pairs of eyes lit up simultaneously.

A-Que was the first to jump up and declare, her face clearly showing that she had "made a killing":

"Well...then we won't stand on ceremony! We've never eaten in such a huge castle before!"
