Su Muran got up early in the morning to pack her luggage.

As Lin Xiaowei helped her pack, she choked back tears, saying, "We've only had a few years of peace, and now we have to hide again."

"Don't be sad, things are much better now than they were three years ago. I'll call you when I get there."

Su Muran hugged her and comforted her.

Lin Xiaowei nodded. At noon, she went out to buy groceries, planning to cook a sumptuous farewell meal before sending her to the airport.

Unexpectedly, Su Muran received a call from an unknown number right after finishing lunch and before she could even book a ride.

"Hello, this is Su Muran."

"Ranran, it's me."

A deep, familiar voice came from the phone.

Su Muran panicked and almost dropped her phone.

After realizing what had happened, she hurriedly and hastily hung up the phone.

"Mu Ran, what's wrong?"

Lin Xiaowei noticed that her face was pale and quickly asked her what was wrong.

Su Muran gripped her phone tightly, her heart pounding, and said, "It's... Su Mingli."

Why would he call you?

"I don't know either."

Fearing he might call again, Su Muran wanted to turn off her phone.

But then, a message came in: Mom is seriously ill, hoping to come home!

"Xiaowei, my mom is sick."

Staring at this message, Su Muran's tears instantly rolled down her cheeks.

Lin Xiaowei quickly comforted her, "Mrs. Su is such a kind person, God will surely protect her, she will be alright."

Su Muran choked up as she said, "Her health wasn't good to begin with, and I haven't been back for three years. I'm very worried about her."

Lin Xiaowei said worriedly, "But if you go back, aren't you worried that Su Mingli will continue to pester you?"

Whether it was her whirlwind marriage with Mu Tingshen or her escape to Estonia, it was all to avoid Su Mingli's entanglement.

If we go back now, wouldn't all our previous efforts be wasted?

Su Muran silently shed tears.

For the first twenty-one years of her life, she was the apple of the Su family's eye and everything went smoothly for her.

After her twenty-first birthday, a girl named Yun Ge came to her door, claiming that she was the real daughter of the Su family.

Everything has changed.

Su Mingli, the older brother, suddenly broke up with his girlfriend and confessed his love to her in front of their parents.

Professor Lin, the father, flew into a rage and nearly broke Su Mingli's leg.

The Su family has been a scholarly family for generations, and even without blood ties, they would absolutely not allow such a thing to happen.

But Su Mingli seemed to be possessed; no matter how her family scolded, beat, or tried to persuade her, she refused to give up.

Chaos erupted at home, and Mrs. Lin spent her days in tears, eventually collapsing and being hospitalized.

Professor Lin spoke to her privately: "Ranran, I can't do anything about your brother. I hope you can... think about your parents."

"Dad, he's my brother, I will never accept him."

Su Muran thought her father was worried that she would agree, so she immediately made a solemn vow.

Professor Lin said helplessly, "I know... maybe only when you get married will he give up."

Su Muran looked at Professor Su in shock. His face, which had aged considerably in just a few days, made it impossible for her to refuse.

"Okay, I'll find someone to marry as soon as possible."

I'm 21 years old and have never been in a relationship.

She wanted to find a suitable marriage partner to put her parents at ease.

Because she was in such a hurry, she didn't investigate properly and got a marriage certificate with Mu Tingshen on their first meeting.

So much so that they didn't even have time to truly understand his identity, which is why they're in trouble now.

but……

As the saying goes, if you have too many lice, you won't feel itchy; if you have too many troubles, they won't seem like troubles anymore.

After a long silence, Su Muran made up her mind and said, "I've made up my mind. I have to go back no matter what. My mother is so good to me. I can't bear to not go back to see her when I know she's sick."

"But Su Mingli..."

"You forgot, there's still Mu Tingshen."

Lin Xiaowei's eyes lit up, and she suddenly realized what was going on. She exclaimed in surprise, "You mean, use Mu Tingshen to deal with Su Mingli?"

Su Muran said, "Later, my brother found out that my marriage with Mu Tingshen was fake, which is why he continued to pester me. If Mu Tingshen and I went back together, he would see that we were still together and naturally he would stop bothering me."

Lin Xiaowei asked worriedly, "Is Mu Tingshen still willing? He was willing before because he was poor and wanted your million. Now... he doesn't lack money, so is he still willing to play along with your act?"

Su Muran frowned, unsure whether Mu Tingshen was still willing to cooperate.

But how will we know the result if we don't try?

"I want to cancel my flight and go find Mu Tingshen."

Without hesitation, I took out my phone and cancelled the plane ticket.

She had just canceled her flight when Zhou Shi received the news.

He arrived at the president's office excitedly and reported to Mu Tingshen: "Boss, as you predicted, Miss Su has cancelled her plane ticket."

Upon hearing this, Mu Tingshen first curled his lips into a smile, but then frowned in annoyance.

Three years have passed, and Su Mingli can still easily sway her emotions.

"Miss Su, will she come looking for you?"

Zhou Shi didn't receive a call from Su Muran and became somewhat worried.

"She will."

Mu Tingshen answered affirmatively.

She had a whirlwind marriage with him and brought him home to "show affection" on several occasions, all in order to sever her relationship with Su Mingli.

She will definitely take him back with her when she returns to China this time.

Sure enough, just as Mu Tingshen finished speaking, Zhou Shi's phone rang.

When Zhou Shi saw the caller ID, he exclaimed with delight, "It's Miss Su!"

Mu Tingshen nodded slightly, signaling him to connect.

Zhou Shi, having followed Mu Tingshen for many years, immediately pressed the speakerphone button.

"Hello, Assistant Zhou, I am Su Muran. I would like to... see Mr. Mu."

"Mr. Mu is at the company. Are you at home? I'll drive over to pick you up."

"I'm home, thank you!"

Su Muran hung up the phone politely and courteously.

Having grown accustomed to the fiery and spirited young ladies of the capital, Zhou Shi found it rather strange to suddenly encounter a gentle and refined girl like Su Muran.

"Miss Su is indeed worthy of her scholarly family background; her speech and manners are elegant and polite."

"She is not the real daughter of the Su family. Don't mention such things again."

Mu Ting reminded him in a deep voice.

"Yes, boss. I'm sorry."

Zhou quickly apologized, having intended to please his boss, but he hadn't expected to say the wrong thing.

He hurriedly went out to pick up Su Muran.

Soon, he brought Su Muran back to the president's office.

Su Muran stood at the door, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar face behind the large desk, and mustered up her courage to walk in.

"Did you need something?"

Mu Tingshen looked up at her and asked in a calm tone.

Su Muran took a deep breath and replied, "I agree to your proposal, but you also have to promise me one thing."

Tell me about it?

Mu Tingshen leaned back in his chair, relaxing his body.

"I'm planning to go back to China, and I'd like you to come with me. You... should understand... what I mean, right?"

Su Muran blushed and waited nervously for his response.

Back then, the two often went home together to show their affection, but at that time she was the one in control, and he just had to go along with it.

Now that their roles have been reversed, she still makes such a request; even the most shameless person would feel ashamed.

"I understand what you mean, but... I've forgotten how to show affection in public. Why don't you teach me again?"

Mu Tingshen smiled meaningfully and suggested that she teach him again, just like she did back then.
