Baby! Be good! Don't be afraid! Your husband isn't a wild animal!

Gu Zhihua shook her head, wondering what she was thinking about all day.

Butler Mo's phone rang. He answered it; it was Mo Yeting calling, asking him to arrange a car to take Gu Zhihua to pick up her parents.

After hanging up the phone, Butler Mo arranged for a driver. Gu Zhihua got into the car, told the driver the address, and the car started and drove away.

Thirty minutes later, the car arrived at the intersection of Songjia Manor Road.

Gu Zhihua saw her adoptive parents through the car window. "Driver, just pull over."

The driver pulled over as instructed, and Gu Zhihua got out of the car.

Gu Yuanshan spotted his daughter immediately. "Yulan, Zhihua is here."

Liang Yulan ran over, took Gu Zhihua's hand, and asked with concern, "Zhihua, are you alright?"

"Mom, I'm fine." She shook her head, her eyes reddening. She couldn't tell her parents that she was being hunted down.

"It's good that everything is alright. The Song family must be out of their minds. That adopted daughter's acting was so bad. They believe an adopted daughter but not their own biological daughter." Liang Yulan was furious.

"Don't mention them anymore. From now on, Zhihua and they have nothing to do with each other. We've already given them a chance, but they didn't appreciate it." Gu Yuanshan was also very angry.

"From the day I left the Song family, I had nothing to do with them anymore," Gu Zhihua forced a smile. "Mom and Dad, let's talk in the car."

The group got into the car, and the driver started the car and returned to the manor.

Gu Yuanshan asked in confusion, "Zhihua, whose car is this? Where are we going?"

Gu Yuanshan knew that the car was a Maybach, such an expensive car, it definitely didn't belong to his daughter.

A hint of guilt flashed in Gu Zhihua's eyes. She had thought of an excuse when she came: "This belongs to a friend of mine. He's been taking me in for a while. I don't plan to go home with you. I want to stay in Kyoto."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuanshan fell silent.

Liang Yulan sighed deeply, "You have no home here, and we are not by your side. You are all alone, and I am worried about you."

"Mom, I want to finish my studies. I can live at school." She was just lying to them. She still needed to discuss these things with Mo Yeting. After all, she owed him a favor, which was under his jurisdiction. And most importantly, she needed his protection.

"Our daughter has grown up and has her own opinions. No matter what you do, Dad will support you. If you want to come home, you can come back anytime. Mom and Dad will be waiting for you at home." Although Gu Yuanshan was worried about his daughter, he was very supportive of her.

Gu Zhihua could no longer hold back her tears; she hugged her parents, tears streaming down her face...

The car drove into the Ink Garden.

Liang Yulan was stunned. This manor was even more magnificent and larger than the Song family's.

"Zhihua, your friend seems to be even more powerful than the Song family," Liang Yulan said.

"It seems so." Gu Zhihua didn't know exactly how rich he was, but he was definitely more powerful than the Song family.

"We'll just stay one night and go back tomorrow, so as not to bother them." Gu Yuanshan was a simple and honest person who was most afraid of troubling others.

The car came to a stop.

As the group got out of the car, Butler Mo quickly came forward and greeted them politely, "Miss Gu, Mr. Gu, Mrs. Gu."

Gu Yuanshan was surprised by Butler Mo's politeness. He had been looked down upon at the Song family earlier that day and was afraid that wealthy people would look down on them. But here, he was treated with respect, and the butler seemed to be a very nice person.

"Mom and Dad, this is Butler Mo," Gu Zhihua introduced.

"Butler Mo, I apologize for disturbing you," Gu Yuanshan said politely.

"It's alright, I'll take you both to the villa, you can stay there tonight." After saying that, Butler Mo walked ahead to lead the way.

"Mom, we'll get the local specialties later. Let's go check on our accommodation first." Gu Zhihua took the bag from her hand.

The maid appeared beside them without them noticing. "Miss Gu, leave it to me."

"Okay, thank you. Just take it to the kitchen for me." Gu Zhihua said, then took Liang Yulan's hand and followed Butler Mo and Gu Yuanshan.

Liang Yulan whispered, "Zhihua, it seems you're doing very well here. They're all so polite, unlike the Song family, who look down on people."

"Mom, the Song family is too petty. Don't pay them any mind." Gu Zhihua thought to herself that Mo Yeting had indeed been very good to her. Since she came to this manor, she had never suffered any grievances.

But he would occasionally tease her... Just thinking about this teasing made her blush. His teasing was kissing her all the time.

Butler Mo showed them the villa.

Liang Yulan felt embarrassed to bother them, so she said she would cook for them herself, thinking that Gu Zhihua must also miss her cooking.

Butler Mo had no choice but to let her cook. Gu Zhihua told Gu Yuanshan to rest at the villa while she went to help Liang Yulan cook.

In the kitchen, the mother and daughter chatted as usual, their laughter filling the air.

When Mo Yeting returned to the manor, Butler Mo reported the situation.

He told Butler Mo not to disturb them, and then he went to the kitchen.

Hearing Gu Zhihua coquettishly talking to her mother outside the door, his lips unconsciously curled up. This little thing was just like a child in front of her mother.

Gu Zhihua brought out the dishes and saw Mo Yeting.

When Mo Yeting saw her wearing an apron, which exuded a down-to-earth charm, a fleeting thought of marriage crossed his mind. She would cook, and he would wash the dishes... What a heartwarming scene.

She almost forgot that she hadn't yet coordinated with Mo Yeting. She put down the dishes and quickly pulled Mo Yeting out.

He obediently let her pull him along until they reached the living room, where Gu Zhihua said, "A-Ting, could you do me another favor?"

"Hmm? Go ahead," he said.

"My parents don't know I'm being hunted down and that you saved me. I don't want them to worry, so I'm lying to them that you're my friend and that I'm just staying here temporarily. Please, could you help me keep this a secret?" Gu Zhihua made a pleading expression.

Seeing her adorable appearance, even someone as cunning as him would naturally want to take advantage of her at any time.

He pointed his long, slender finger to his lips. "This time, I want you to kiss here first."

Afraid that her mother would become suspicious if she stayed out too long, Gu Zhihua disregarded her shyness and stood on tiptoe to kiss her.

Mo Yeting thoroughly enjoyed this feeling. It seemed that the little one was getting more and more used to kissing him, and he felt a strange sense of satisfaction.

Gu Zhihua pulled away from his lips, "It's a deal, you're not allowed to give yourself away."

"Okay," he said indulgently.

"I'm going to help Mom cook. You sit and wait a moment, dinner will be ready soon." She said, then turned and went back to the kitchen.

He raised his hand to caress his lips, still savoring the kiss from before, and tonight he was asking for his reward. He gave a mischievous smile.

Liang Yulan was a very good cook and quickly prepared the dishes. "Zhihua, has your friend returned?"

"Mom, he's back. He's in the living room. I'll call Dad and we can eat right away." Gu Zhihua picked up the phone and dialed Gu Yuanshan's number.
