Addiction sets in at night; even the abstinent older man has fallen for it.

Mu Tian smiled sweetly and replied, "Okay."

She had previously worried that Jiang Hui wouldn't be used to not having her by her side, but now that her mother was planning to bring Jiang Hui to live with them, she didn't have to worry about anything anymore.

This incident alone shows that the mother is someone who is easily swayed by emotions.

Although I used to be jealous, after getting to know Jiang Hui, I only feel sympathy for her.

She felt more confident in persuading her parents.

She slyly instructed Qiu Yi to take good care of Jiang Hui, and then ended the conversation after chatting for a few words.

"Mom, I wanted to surprise Jiang Hui and my old classmate, so I didn't tell them earlier. You didn't mention it when you were on the phone with Jiang Hui, did you?"

As Mu Tiantian spoke, she suddenly became curious about why Jiang Hui didn't bring Fu Zhengting with her when she went to eat hot pot. She was worried that something might have happened to Fu Zhengting.

Logically speaking, Fu Zhengting's health is fine now, so he should be able to eat hot pot.

"Luckily, I didn't rush to say anything," Xia Guiying said with a sigh. Seeing Mu Tiantian staring at her phone with a slightly off expression, she asked疑惑地问道, "What's wrong, Ruohan?"

Mu Tiantian quickly locked her phone screen and shook her head at Xia Guiying.

She pointed to a tall tower ahead, "Mom, let's go take a look there."

Seeing that Xia Guiying was still scrutinizing her, she pulled her over.

Xia Guiying then put aside her doubts and began to introduce the tower to Mu Tiantian.

Jiang Hui and Zhong Qiuyi were shopping at a clothing store in the mall, but Xiao Hailan was preoccupied with her son and wasn't in the mood to shop.

The thought of her son's indifferent gaze weighed heavily on her heart.

Zhong Qiuyi didn't find the clothes in the store very attractive, so she lost interest in browsing any further.

Since gaining weight, she rarely buys clothes in physical stores anymore, as it's hard to find clothes in her size; she mostly buys online.

She moved to the middle, gently taking Xiao Hailan's arm and Jiang Hui's arm with her other hand, and suggested, "I think the clothes in the store are getting less and less attractive. We might as well go back and shop online. Shall we go to the supermarket upstairs, buy some food, and then head back?"

While eating hot pot, Jiang Hui asked Xiao Hailan why she was unhappy while Xiao Hailan went to the restroom. Jiang Hui told her about the relationship between Xiao Hailan and Fu Zhengting, and then she understood.

I felt a little more sorry for Fu Zhengting.

Behind the seemingly glamorous facade lies untold pain.

Her family background was also not good. Her parents favored boys over girls. Her mother sometimes said hurtful things and did many things that hurt her. When the family slaughtered a chicken, her parents would always give the two big chicken legs to her older and younger brothers. Her older and younger brothers always received gifts on their birthdays, but she received nothing. Therefore, she could empathize with Fu Zhengting.

At least Fu Zhengting's mother realized how much her indifference hurt her child, but she will never think she was wrong.

Sometimes, seeing Jiang Hui and Mu Tiantian being so affectionate, she felt particularly envious.

Sweetie is lucky. Her adoptive mother is so good, her biological father is the richest man, and the person she likes is a handsome and kind business tycoon.

She's in a bad situation; she has nothing.

Not wanting to be swayed by pessimism, she gathered her thoughts and asked Jiang Hui, "Aunt Jiang, why don't you send a message to my brother-in-law and see what he wants to eat? We can go upstairs, buy it, and cook it for him."

Jiang Hui nodded, and as she got on the elevator, she texted Fu Zhengting: Ah Shen, are you asleep yet?

I called him directly, afraid of waking him up if he was asleep.

Fu Zhengting couldn't sleep because he was in a bad mood.

He tossed and turned in bed.

He desperately wanted to recall his memories of his parents.

He wanted to know what cold things his mother had done to him.

But the more anxious I am, the less I can remember.

Feeling extremely irritable, and with Mu Tiantian not around.

The feeling of having your mind go blank when you close your eyes is unpleasant.

When the message notification sounded, he subconsciously thought it was a message from Mu Tiantian. He picked it up and saw that the contact name was "Mother-in-law".

He didn't know how to reply.

I don't even feel like replying.

Fearing that the conversation would go on and on, he simply stopped replying.

Jiang Hui assumed he was asleep.

Jiang Hui entered the supermarket and saw that Fu Zhengting had not yet replied to her message.

Could it be that even she doesn't want to talk to him anymore?

Xiao Hailan kept staring at Jiang Hui's phone, her eyes lowered, her mood extremely low.

Does her son not want to talk to her, and even his mother-in-law Jiang Hui?

Jiang Hui comforted him, "Ah Shen is probably asleep."

She reached for the shopping cart, saying, "Let's buy some of all kinds of meat and vegetables. It's been a long time since I've been to a supermarket. Since we're already here, let's buy more food to stock up at home."

Zhong Qiuyi took Xiao Hailan's arm and followed Jiang Hui to the vegetable section.

Just as Fu Zhengting was about to force himself to sleep, Uncle Zhong arrived.

As soon as Uncle Zhong came in, he could tell from Fu Zhengting's agitated and restless state that he was in a bad mood.

When he reached the bedside, he still asked softly, "What's wrong, Shen?"

Fu Zhengting opened his eyes and looked at Uncle Zhong, his eyes filled with resentment.

He didn't say anything, letting Uncle Zhong figure it out for himself.

Uncle Zhong looked at the childlike Fu Zhengting and smiled kindly.

It's been a long time since I've seen Fu Zhengting act so childlike.

He was used to keeping his sadness to himself and never telling anyone.

When I'm unhappy, I stand by the window and quietly look into the distance.

The misfortunes of childhood can never be fully healed in a lifetime.

The pain inflicted by one's family of origin can never be fully healed.

He murmured, "Ah Shen, I really hope you never remember those memories again. It doesn't matter if you don't remember Tian Tian. I believe you will fall in love with Tian Tian again. If it weren't for Tian Tian's appearance that warmed your heart, I think you would have been lonely for the rest of your life..."

There was a hint of stubbornness in Fu Zhengting's eyes.

None of them wanted him to remember.

He insisted on remembering.

"The best thing I ever did was bring Tian Tian to the villa to meet you and suggest that you and Tian Tian try dating. You accepted my suggestion, and from then on, your world had a brighter light. Tian Tian illuminated your life, and I'm really happy."

Uncle Zhong reached into the blankets and squeezed Fu Zhengting's hand. He noticed faint dark circles under Fu Zhengting's eyes. "Go to sleep first. Don't ruin your health. Tian Tian will be worried if she finds out."

Anan had already told him on the phone that Yang Guanghui had been found to be suspicious, and Anan had also started keeping an eye on Yang Guanghui.

There is still a lot of hope.

Fu Zhengting seemed to want to say something, opened his mouth, but then remained silent.

The awkward atmosphere was broken when the attending physician came in to examine the patient.

Seeing Fu Zhengting's haggard appearance, the attending physician, adopting a doctor's demeanor, ordered him to go to sleep, "Your injuries have finally started to improve, are you trying to make them worse?"

Fu Zhengting closed his eyes, feeling utterly exhausted.

I wish I could remember everything after a good night's sleep.

Uncle Zhong saw the attending physician out and then earnestly inquired about the issue of memory recovery.

He wanted a definite answer: whether Fu Zhengting could regain his memories.

The attending physician frowned and replied somewhat embarrassedly, "It's really hard to say. I can't guarantee it 100%. Some people will never remember, while others will. It varies from person to person."

Uncle Zhong knew that pressing for an answer would only yield the same result, so he stopped asking.

Seeing Ah Shen so unhappy, he felt really sorry for him.

He walked to the side and called Anan to ask about Yang Guanghui's situation.

Yang Guanghui has returned to his hometown, an ancient village in a small town.

There were houses for rent in the ancient village, and Anan rented one of them so that he could keep an eye on Yang Guanghui and also ask the villagers about Yang Guanghui's situation.

When I was renting the room, I asked the landlord, and the landlord spoke of Yang Guanghui with great sympathy.

Everyone sympathized with him because of the loss of his family.

Anan only then realized how tragic Yang Guanghui's ordeal was, to the point that even his enemies felt sorry for him.

A person who experiences a series of setbacks is very likely to become psychologically distorted and unable to bear seeing others doing well.

This person poses a significant safety hazard; he needs to be vigilant and keep a close eye on him.

There was a big tree opposite Yang Guanghui's house, and a lot of children were playing under it. Anan bought a lot of snacks from the landlord's shop and gave them to the children to eat. He played with them while keeping an eye on Yang Guanghui's house.

Uncle Zhong called at that moment.

Just then, Yang Guanghui opened the door to sweep the floor, and Anan was worried about something.

I wonder if Yang Guanghui knew that he was Fu Zhengting's bodyguard.

He didn't start working for the Fu family as early as Uncle Zhong, and he rarely appeared in public, so he was certain that he had never met Yang Guanghui.

It's unlikely that Yang Guanghui knew him.

He was also wearing sunglasses.

He swiped to answer the call, and fearing that Yang Guanghui knew Uncle Zhong, he didn't call him Uncle Zhong, but instead asked directly what was wrong.

Uncle Zhong could guess that Anan was in a difficult situation, "How are things on your end? If you can't talk, just reply with a text message."

"I've arrived in Tongwan Town. It's a nice place, and the people are very friendly. I'm playing with the children right now, and I plan to stay for a while before going back," Anan replied naturally, continuing to play with the children.

"Then you can continue playing. I won't bother you anymore. Be careful, and remember to tell me immediately if anything happens." After giving these instructions, Uncle Zhong hung up the phone.

Anan put his phone back in his coat pocket.

Although he had done his best to appear natural, the perceptive Yang Guanghui still noticed something was amiss.

As he swept the floor, he tried to get a better look at Anan from a short distance.

Wearing sunglasses, it's impossible to see the specific facial features.

Judging from his physique, he must have trained.

He immediately had a guess.

They even sent people to follow him to his home.

Ha ha……

Let's stay home for the last bit of time and then go crazy like it's the end of the world.

They forced him to do this.

He couldn't even be bothered to test Anan anymore. He returned to the house, sat on the sofa in the living room, looked at the empty living room, and recalled the scenes of his daughter watching TV with him in the past. His heart ached terribly.

He will not let Qin Dongyang live a happy and fulfilling life.

He wanted Qin Dongyang's daughter to be buried with his daughter.

He glanced sideways at the other side through the half-open door, a sinister smirk creeping across his face.

Let's see how long this person can keep an eye on things.

He went to the kitchen to cook.

Two parents came over to play with their children. They had never seen Anan before, so they asked him and found out that he was a new tenant. Anan felt that wearing sunglasses would make him seem suspicious, so he took them off and chatted with the parents, saying that he was there to visit and asking them what fun or delicious things there were to do around the area.

The parents enthusiastically recommended it to him.

Uncle Zhong returned to the ward, lowered his head and listened intently to Fu Zhengting's even breathing. Confirming that he was truly asleep, he pulled the blanket over him even more tightly.

Stepping out of the ward and looking at the ward across the street, I realized that Jiang Hui was no longer living there, and I felt a little uneasy.

He had added Jiang Hui on WeChat and, fearing she might worry about Fu Zhengting's situation, he proactively sent her a message.

After buying groceries, Jiang Hui saw the message from Uncle Zhong and was relieved to find that Fu Zhengting was asleep.

Xiao Hailan also breathed a sigh of relief.

But she was still very heavy-hearted, unsure how she would face her son when she saw him again.

Once in the car, Jiang Hui couldn't bear to see Xiao Hailan looking so worried and disappointed any longer. "Alan, Tian Tian wants to repair your relationship with Ashen even more than you do. So, let Tian Tian handle this difficult task. Don't think about anything else."

Xiao Hailan dared not place her hopes on Mu Tiantian, but she also did not want to disappoint.

She smiled and nodded.

She also has Mu Tiantian's WeChat, but rarely sends messages.

While Jiang Hui was looking out the car window, she secretly took a picture of Jiang Hui's profile and also appeared in the frame for a photo.

Send it to Mu Tiantian's WeChat, and then take a picture of the big bag of vegetables that was there.

[Sweetie, we've finished shopping at the supermarket. We bought a lot of beef and offal. We're planning to make beef hot pot tonight.]

Mu Tiantian came down from the tower, panting heavily from exhaustion.

I had just sat down in the rest area when I received this message from Xiao Hailan.

Climbing the tower took a lot of energy, and her stomach rumbled as soon as she saw the big bag of vegetables.

Drinking porridge in the morning makes you hungry easily.

She can't wait to eat hot pot.

Fearing her mother would see Xiao Hailan's WeChat messages, she did not reply.

Fortunately, her mother was too tired to notice.

She felt a little sorry for her. "Mom, are your feet tired? Do you want me to massage them for you?"

As she spoke, she first massaged Xia Guiying's shoulders.

Xia Guiying was secretly pleased, but she didn't want to tire her daughter out. "Ruohan, when we have time, Mom will take you to a traditional Chinese medicine beauty salon for a massage."

"Okay, Dad, how much longer? Let's hurry back and go to the supermarket to buy hot pot ingredients. I'm starving," Mu Tiantian pouted and said in a spoiled tone.

Qin Dongyang received a message from Xia Guiying urging him to come out not long ago.

Every time he came, he would chant scriptures with Master Wukong for one or two hours.

After reciting the sutra, I felt much more at peace.

As he approached, he heard his daughter talking. He joked, "You two princesses have been waiting for a long time. Now we're heading home."

He held one in each hand, his heart overflowing with happiness.

Back in the car, Mu Tiantian replied to Xiao Hailan's message while her mother was scrolling through her phone.

She told Xiao Hailan that her mother was going to pick up Jiang Hui and Zhong Qiuyi that afternoon, and asked Xiao Hailan to keep it a secret for the time being.

Xiao Hailan stared blankly at Mu Tiantian's message, unsure whether to be happy for Jiang Hui or sad for herself.

Because Jiang Hui was by her side, she had the opportunity to see her son.

If Jiang Hui goes to live with the Qin family, she won't have the courage to visit her son.

I've gotten used to having Jiang Hui around these days, and the thought of her leaving fills me with fear.

She couldn't selfishly possess Jiang Hui.

Jiang Hui must want to live with Tian Tian.

Ultimately, she has to solve her own problems.

But how do you solve a problem that has no solution?

She reluctantly replied with an "okay".
