On the Zhou family's car.

Zhou Yichuan arranged for Qiao Xinyang to sit in the passenger seat.

To make it easier for the child to rest, Zhou Yichuan specifically instructed the driver to lower the back of Qiao Xinyang's seat.

"It's okay, I'm fine! Don't push my sister!" Qiao Xinyang said in a panic.

Although he could tell that the Bentley Continental was spacious, lowering the seat back slightly would not excessively compress Junyao's living space.

But Qiao Xinyang still didn't dare to be too reckless.

He was reserved and uneasy, as if sitting on pins and needles.

She was afraid that she might do something wrong and affect her sister's and brother-in-law's relationship.

However, his worries seem somewhat unnecessary.

Qiao Xinyang secretly glanced at the back seat through the rearview mirror.

From the moment she got on the bus, my sister kept crying in my brother-in-law's arms.

My brother-in-law didn't seem impatient at all.

Perhaps their relationship isn't as distant as the outside world portrays it to be?

Jun Yao, who was nestled in Zhou Yichuan's arms, was still crying.

Heaven knows, she herself does not want to cry!

However, the original owner's emotions were like a flood that had been released, and there was no way to stop them!

Jun Yao decided to play along.

It's unsightly to cry alone with your head down.

With Zhou Yichuan by my side, there's no harm in not using him!

So what about haute couture suits?

A few tears and snot are what make life feel real!

And while I'm at it, I'll also absorb the newfound hostility emanating from Zhou Yichuan today.

It's strange.

Zhou Yichuan's violent aura was incessant and unending.

But Junyao found no evil artifacts or filth on him.

In his case, there are basically only two possibilities left.

One reason is that Zhou Yichuan's destiny is special.

Junyao could use this as an excuse to burn a few letters and inquire about it.

Another possibility is that a special magic array or spell was set up in some places that are crucial to Zhou Yichuan.

Could it be that there's something wrong with the waterfront mansion?

There's no better time than today.

Let's take this opportunity to go and have a good look!

When they arrived at the waterfront mansion, Sun Meizhi was already waiting in the living room.

Sun Meizhi was wearing a faded dark blue loungewear set, and sat up very straight because of the cramped situation.

Her hair was neatly coiled into a bun at the back of her head.

From a distance, he looks like a hermit Taoist.

Following the original owner's memories, Jun Yao learned that this outfit must have been requested by the Qiao family matriarch.

The old lady is a devout Buddhist and vegetarian. Her courtyard is always filled with the fragrance of herbs, and she mainly lives a secluded life away from the world.

However, beneath the glittering exterior of wealth and luxury lies a greater potential for filth and corruption.

Few people know that the person who did the most unscrupulous and despicable things in the Qiao family was this kind grandmother who practiced a "simple and abstinent lifestyle" in her later years.

Back then, Sun Meizhi, the nanny, was able to rise from mistress to wife thanks to the support of Old Mrs. Qiao.

Because Sun Meizhi was a sharp knife used by Old Mrs. Qiao in her power struggles within the household.

Sun Meizhi's influence can be seen in many of Grandma Qiao's achievements.

Grandma Qiao probably never expected that she, a falconer, would end up getting pecked in the eye by a falcon!

She knew very well how to make someone live a life worse than death.

Therefore, in order to punish Sun Meizhi for fooling the Qiao family, Old Mrs. Qiao kept Sun Meizhi by her side and tormented her in different ways every day of the year.

Sun Meizhi was much thinner than Junyao remembered her.

Upon seeing her, Qiao Xinyang, who had been holding back his tears all the way, finally broke down in tears.

"Mother!"

Junyao originally just wanted to quietly appreciate the scene of their loving mother and filial son.

But then, tears started falling uncontrollably again...

"Don't you want your eyes anymore?"

Zhou Yichuan handed over a clean handkerchief, his disdain barely concealed, and perhaps he had no intention of hiding it.

"Don't cry, everyone's been brought back. As long as you don't agree, your mother-in-law doesn't need to go back to the Qiao family."

Junyao took the handkerchief, smelled the faint scent of fir trees on it, and cried even harder.

Zhou Yichuan was puzzled and prepared to lend her his shoulder to lean on again.

But this time, Junyao dodged it again.

"Waaah, that's enough..."

"Enough is enough..."

"Don't be nice to me anymore..."

"I can't accept that!..."

Junyao was forced to cry uncontrollably.

He speaks in a choked, intermittent manner.

But she didn't want to!

It's the original owner's emotions at play.

After all, no one expected that the two wishes of "gaining Zhou Yichuan's love" and "saving his mother and brother" could be fulfilled simultaneously in one day!

At this rate, wouldn't it be just around the corner to subdue the original owner's soul?

Jun Yao suddenly felt that hugging Zhou Yichuan again wouldn't be a bad thing.

Just as Sun Meizhi was about to speak, she saw her daughter pounce into Zhou Yichuan's arms like a hungry tiger.

Sun Meizhi: "..."

Sun Meizhi wiped away her tears and walked over with Qiao Xinyang in her arms.

"Yichuan, thank you so much for today..."

"Thanks to you, the three of us, mother and children, are finally reunited..."

Zhou Yichuan's expression remained calm. "It's alright. From now on, this is your home. Mother-in-law, please make yourself at home."

Sun Meizhi dared not respond to that casually.

While she was with Old Mrs. Qiao, she heard a lot of rumors about the Zhou family.

Especially Zhou Yichuan, a figure who seems like a myth.

Sun Meizhi had known for a long time that the waterfront mansion was designed by her daughter.

But there are many mysterious things here that cannot be explained.

No pebble in the front or back yard could have been placed randomly.

Not to mention those stone-carved beasts.

Outsiders often describe the waterfront mansion as an unattainable temple.

If it weren't for the fact that Zhou Yichuan always brought female celebrities to stay here...

The legendary nature of this place could be even stronger.

Sun Meizhi couldn't help but feel worried about what the days ahead would bring.

If she were to live here in the future, wouldn't she have to live in constant fear and trepidation?

Fortunately, she was also worn down by Old Mrs. Qiao.

Sun Meizhi smiled, took Junyao's hand, and said lovingly, "From now on, Mom will cook your favorite food for you every day. You should take good care of yourself at home and have a child for Yichuan as soon as possible."

Zhou Yichuan suddenly smiled, "Yes, my grandma is also urging me to have a great-grandson. We need to treat this as a serious matter."

Jun Yao didn't reply.

My mind was in complete turmoil.

It's impossible for me to have a child!

She needed to immediately send a message back to her colleagues, urging them to quickly capture the original owner's soul and get back to their business!

But there is indeed something to say about the Linshui Mansion.

Junyao cannot use the Judge's Technique here.

Moreover, Xiao Jiu, whom she sent out to work, could not return to her side.

Even when they tried to burn a letter, they couldn't get it on fire!

Junyao could only find various excuses to go out.

However, the Zhou family bodyguards guarded the area around the waterfront mansion like an iron barrel.

Ye Yang also repeatedly advised her.

"Madam, you should rest at home for the time being."

"Things haven't been peaceful outside lately."

"A few of Wei Yu's extreme fans are just waiting for you to go out and cause trouble..."

"Just tell me what you need, and I'll do my best to get it done."

Junyao was puzzled, "I've already retired from the entertainment industry, why are they still chasing after me?"

Ye Yang smiled wryly, "Madam, don't worry. The public relations and security teams are already working hard to handle this. Just rest for a few days. Once things calm down, you can go wherever you want."
