Wei Shufen followed Suman back to the city and returned to Yu's house together. The two entered the study together.
Suman watched her take out the contract, light it with a lighter and burn it, feeling a stone fall in her heart.
She thought that if it were five years ago, she would never have done such a thing, but after five years, too much could have changed. After five years of waiting and five years of youth, she would no longer be free and easy.
She picked up some ashes from the ashtray and stood in a daze.
"What's wrong?" Wei Shufen asked.
Suman came back to his senses and shook his head.
"Don't worry, even if they come back in the future, I will make the decision for you. Once you get married, you will be the wife of the Yu family, and no one can shake this status." Wei Shufen said, holding her hand.
"Status is just a situation. What I want is the status in Brother Haoxuan's heart. I don't know when it can be given to me." Suman sighed.
"Once you get married, have children, and you have status, you have family members that you can't let go of." Wei Shufen said with a smile.
Suman nodded, but felt the tip of his nose was sore and burst into tears.
She obviously didn't rob anyone, but why did she feel like she was? Why did she feel guilty, why did she feel so guilty?
"Let's go and prepare for the wedding. Five years have passed. If they want to come back, they should have come back long ago. You can just be the bride in peace." Wei Shufen saw that she was worried and comforted her softly.
When the plane landed, Doudou opened her eyes in a daze. She saw the schoolbag in the woman's hand and sat up straight to get it.
"Let me hold it for you. Where are you going? Do you want me to take it to you?" the woman asked enthusiastically.
"I'm going to find my daddy." Doudou followed her off the plane.
After entering the hall, Doudou went to get her bag again, but the woman still didn't give it to her.
"Where is your daddy? Let me take you there. You are so young. What will you do if you meet a bad person?" the woman said, holding her hand.
"Where? I don't know where it is. I only know that his surname is Yu, and his name is Yu Haoxuan. He has a big company in Taipei." Doudou frowned and answered.
"Yu Haoxuan? Yu family?" The woman's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Yes, you know, right? Then take me to find him quickly. I haven't seen him for many years!" Doudou jumped up happily.
"We know each other, let's go, let's go now." The woman was even more happy, and she led her out of the airport and took a taxi outside.
After the car left the street, it entered an alley, turned left and right, and no longer knew where it was.
"Auntie, where are we? Why does my dad live in such a narrow alley?" Doudou looked outside through the car window and asked in surprise.
"This is a shortcut, we'll be there soon," the woman said.
When the car reached the end of an alley, the woman asked the driver to stop and got out of the car with Doudou.
"Where are we going?" Doudou felt a little panicked.
"Go through here and you'll reach the street where your father's company is." The woman led her into a narrow alley.
Doudou looked around and followed her forward with hesitation.
After turning left and right again, after walking for half an hour, she still didn't come out of the alley. Doudou stopped and asked with a tearful voice: "Where are you taking me?"
"Don't make any noise! I promised you'd be here soon." The woman held her hand, changed her previous kindness, and shouted sternly.
"Are you a bad person? Where are you taking me?" Doudou shook her hand violently and screamed, "Help! Help!"
The woman hurriedly covered her mouth and dragged her forward. When she turned the corner, she stopped at a private house and knocked on the door. The house opened, and she dragged Doudou in and locked it with her feet.
He opened the door, and together with a man who opened the door, he carried Doudou into the house.
"Tie it up first. This is a big fish. She said her father is Yu Haoxuan, the president of the Yu family." The woman wiped her sweat and said to the man.
"Nonsense, President Yu is not married yet, where did he get his daughter?" The man looked at the woman with disdain and complained.
"How do you know?" the woman asked.
"You haven't read the news? President Yu Haoxuan of the Yu family and Miss Su Man are about to get married. If such a big daughter suddenly comes out, won't it cause a sensation in Taipei? This little girl must be talking nonsense." The man said.
"I think it's probably an illegitimate child. This girl was adopted from an orphanage. She ran away from her adopted home and came to Taipei alone to find her father. She also said she hadn't seen her father in many years, and she named him Yu Haoxuan.
That kid left a romantic debt when he was young." The woman pondered.
"You are talking nonsense!" Doudou heard what they said and shouted angrily.
"Seal her mouth." The woman glared at Doudou, found a long towel, and sealed Doudou's mouth. The man found shoelaces and tied Doudou's hands and feet.
"What should we do next?" the man asked.
"Let's hear the news. Don't worry. Maybe we can just make a profit and run away, and we won't live such a frightened life anymore." The woman sat down and said.
"Run to where?"
"Let's go to Hong Kong. I have prepared a retreat a long time ago. I just want to get some money and go there." The woman lit a cigarette, took a puff, and spit it in the man's face.
"Did you miss it?" The man shook his head and fanned away the smoke with his palm.
"If we fail, we will take her as a hostage and take her to Hong Kong. Someone will take care of her there." The woman glanced at the man disdainfully.
The two of them deliberated together for a long time, and finally decided to take action the night before Haoxuan's wedding.
Shanghai.
Before she realized it was afternoon, Jiang Keke's fever finally subsided, her mind was clear, and she no longer felt shivering from the cold.
"Are you hungry?" Ye Lingfeng asked her.
"A bit." Jiang Keke sat up.
"The porridge at home should be ready. I'll go home and get it. You wait for a while." Jiang Keke's mother said hurriedly.
She hurried home. The house was quiet. She gently opened the door of Nian Xuan's room and saw that her husband had taken a nap with Nian Xuan.
She walked to the door of Doudou's house again and listened outside. It was quiet inside.
"Doudou——" She knocked on the door, but there was no response. However, her husband came out of Nianxuan's room and said to her: "Doudou went out early, didn't he go to the hospital?"
"No, when did she go out?" Jiang Keke's mother was surprised.
"She left right after you left. She was carrying her schoolbag and said she was going to ask questions from her classmates. After asking questions, she went to the hospital."
"She didn't go to the hospital. Did she say who her classmate was?"
"No." Jiang Keke's father shook his head.
"Where did this child go? I will send the porridge to the hospital first. You are at home. Doudou will call us when he comes back." Jiang Keke's mother took the porridge cooked in the kitchen and hurried out.
As soon as she entered the ward, she asked: "Has Doudou come here?"
Jiang Keke looked at her in surprise and said, "No, isn't she at home?"
