When Bai Yuning heard this, she was immediately terrified. “An evil man? Then isn’t Mommy in danger? Let’s go save Mommy!”

Bai Yu’an shook his head. “There’s no need for that right now because I’m planning to look for the evil man tomorrow.”

Bai Yuning’s eye’s instantly widened. “You’re going to look for the evil man? Then I want to come too! I don’t like evil men who harass Mommy either.”

“No, you need to cover for me at the kindergarten. When I find the evil man tomorrow, I will come back and tell you the next step in our plan.”

“Okay!” The two siblings quickly agreed.

When Su Zhi’en returned to the apartment, she didn’t have to wait long before Ming Ze arrived in his car. Seeing this, Su Zhi’en took the medical bag that she had prepared earlier and got into the car. “Which hospital will we be going to?”

“We’re going to the Fu Mansion. Director Jiang has already gone home.”

When Su Zhi’en got into the car, she thought she was going to a hospital. She did not expect to go straight to Jiang Chen’s mansion. Su Zhi’en’s whole body suddenly tensed up. She felt a sudden jump in her chest, and even her breathing became erratic.

Su Zhi’en had never been to Jiang Chen’s mansion before. When Su Zhi’en married Jiang Chen five years ago, she had only seen him once on their wedding day. Now she has the chance to go to Jiang Chen’s mansion.

When Su Zhi’en was staying at the Jiang family home, she knew that Jiang Chen had other homes of his own. It’s just that Su Zhi’en never dared to go and take a look at them.

She didn’t even dare to ask for news about Jiang Chen, nor did she dare to mention his name too often. Su Zhi’en was afraid that Jiang Chen would hear that she was asking about him and make Jiang Chen hate her more. Su Zhi’en thought about it, and at that time, she was so submissive that she lost all sense of dignity— love made her blind.

Now that Su Zhi’en has returned five years later, she finally went to Jiang Chen’s mansion. Su Zhi’en felt that it was ironic. She looked out of the window and found it amusing. It was late fall, and the night was frigid. Su Zhi’en looked at the world outside the window and felt her heart turn cold.

“Madam Su, Director Jiang just got discharged from the hospital today. If his attitude is bad when you arrive, can you bear with it a little? I’m worried that if he gets angry again, he’ll—”

“Don’t worry, I’m a doctor, and Jiang Chen is my patient now. I know this better than you. Besides, we have an agreement. I’ll make sure I don’t provoke him.” Su Zhi’en retracted her gaze and replied faintly.

Ming Ze heaved a huge sigh of relief when he heard this. No matter what, it would be fine as long as they didn’t make too much of a fuss. They arrived at the Fu Mansion’s number one courtyard ten minutes later.

Pillars carved out of white marble could be seen at the grand and imposing entrance of the mansion. The corridor was arched as golden roses decorated it. They were simplistic but luxurious, not to mention the stunning scenery of the garden. Su Zhi’en looked at every detail attentively. It turned out Jiang Chen lived in such a grand mansion.

“Madam Su, I will drop you off here. You can go in directly from here.”

‘I can directly go in from here? Isn’t Ming Ze coming with me?’ Su Zhi’en collected her thoughts and ran back toward the car. “But I’ve bever been here before, and you didn’t tell Jiang Chen that I’m here. It would be difficult for him not to get angry if I went barging into his mansion, right?”

“No, Madam Su, I’ve already told Director Jiang that you are coming, and I don’t want to disturb him.” Ming Ze comforted Su Zhi’en with a smile from inside the car. Ming Ze didn’t look like he was lying.

But his foot was already on the gas pedal. As soon as Su Zhi’en stepped into the mansion, Ming Ze immediately stepped on it and didn’t look back. Ming Ze didn’t dare to show up at the mansion any time soon. ‘It’s all up to fate now.’

Su Zhi’en believed Ming Ze and didn’t notice his little tricks. She thought what Ming Ze said was true, so she picked up the medical bag next to her and boldly went into the mansion. ‘Since Ming Ze had already told Jiang Chen that I was coming, there’s no reason for Jiang Chen to yell at me, right?’

A few minutes later, at the entrance of Fu Mansion, Su Zhi’en continued walking as she came across a garden. It was not as quiet as she imagined because bodyguards were coming out to stop her.

‘Was Ming Ze telling me the truth?’ With this thought in mind, she held the medial bag in her hand and boldly rushed forward. “Where is he?”

It was strange. When Su Zhi’en finally reached the main entrance, she did not see anyone. ‘Could Jiang Chen be upstairs?’

However, when Su Zhi’en stepped into the mansion, she saw a pair of pink slippers on a shoe rack next to the door. They stood out next to the man’s leather shoes and child’s shoes. It seemed harmonious. 

‘What a nice family of three.’

Su Zhi’en’s gaze suddenly stopped there. In that second, she felt as if something was hammering at her chest. It was a little painful, and her breathing seemed to become erratic again.

‘These slippers should belong to that woman..’
