After she left her father and kept her son, President Pei lost control and knelt down.

Du Yi took Qiao Wan to the airport.

Qiao Wan remained silent the whole way, tears still streaming down her face. She left in such a hurry that she hadn't even packed her luggage. Du Yi then thought of the news that Pei Hansheng had acquired the winery that had been parachuted into the winery earlier that day.

Xiao Qiao must be so eager to escape because President Pei is too controlling.

"Du Yi, what time is the next flight to New Zealand today?"

"It's almost 10 p.m., Sister Qiao. Don't worry, I haven't told anyone. We can wait at the airport."

"You go back, I'll go inside and wait."

After buying her ticket and getting her boarding pass, Qiao Wan went through security and entered the international departure hall, finally finding peace of mind.

She sat by the floor-to-ceiling window, her small, delicate face mostly obscured by sunglasses, her long, black hair flowing freely. Even sitting quietly in the corner, she was still a very eye-catching presence.

Call Shen Yingtang and explain.

"Xiao Tang, I'm at the airport, about to fly to New Zealand. When I get back, I'll file for divorce from Pei Hansheng."

"What happened?" Shen Yingtang went home to catch up on sleep after dropping Xiaobao off. "Did you not enjoy breakfast with President Pei? Well, it's fine. Go abroad to relax. Xiaobao and I will wait for you at home."

"Yes, you've been working hard lately."

After hanging up the phone, Qiao Wan breathed a sigh of relief and glanced sideways at the planes soaring into the sky.

The feeling of freedom is so relaxing.

At the winery, it was afternoon. Pei Hansheng had just finished the ribbon-cutting ceremony and was about to go up to find Qiao Wan when his subordinate rushed over and whispered in his ear, "Mr. Pei, Madam is missing."

Pei Hansheng lowered his eyes, straightened his cufflinks, and said slowly, "Keep looking. Have you checked the cellar? And the vineyard behind there. That woman was arguing with me, she must have hidden there."

"I'll go take another look."

"Um."

Jiang Chunzhi, clinging to his arm, said, "Hansheng, I'm actually quite curious. This place is worlds apart from your estates abroad. How did it catch your eye?"

Pei Hansheng lowered his eyes and pushed Jiang Chunzhi away without making a sound.

"Because of Qiao Wan, Tan Shu can no longer keep her in the cage, so we need to make it bigger."

Jiang Chunzhi curled her lips, her eyes filled with coldness: "You can keep her person, but it's a pity. It seems her heart has never been with you, and she has never loved you."

Pei Hansheng's eyes visibly darkened, but his tone remained nonchalant: "I can just keep her around to torment me. Do I need her love?"

Jiang Chunzhi laughed: "Of course you don't need it."

Pei Hansheng didn't continue the topic. The guests came over with their wine glasses to exchange pleasantries, but he was absent-minded, glancing towards the winery every now and then.

His subordinates searched both places he mentioned but found nothing. They rushed over and said, "Mr. Pei, Madam really isn't at the winery. There's another gate in the back, but the guard said she left a long time ago."

Pei Hansheng's expression suddenly darkened. He put down his wine glass and hurried along, his steps revealing a hint of panic.

Jiang Chunzhi called to him from behind, but he didn't turn around. By the time he caught up, Pei Hansheng had already gotten into his car and driven away.

Goldman Sachs is extremely efficient, and since it concerns Qiao Wan, they immediately went on high alert.

"Mr. Pei, I've checked. Your wife bought a flight to New Zealand two hours ago, and it's departing in three hours."

Pei Hansheng remained calm and composed.

Three hours? I thought she was some kind of superhuman, like she could fly away with wings.

"Not going to the airport, turning around."

"Not looking for a wife?"

Pei Hansheng said confidently, "She will come back."

"Where shall we go?"

"A Beautiful Homeland"

"Yes."

Pei Hansheng turned his head to look at the scenery passing by outside the window.

Xiao Bao's background is a mystery. Qiao Wan doesn't want to have children with him, but she cares too much about other people's children, as if they were her own. This is very strange in itself.

Suddenly, a thought popped into the man's head, and he felt an urge to strangle Qiao Wan.

If that was Qiao Wan's illegitimate child with another man, it would be the greatest disgrace of his life, and he would deal with both the adult and the child at the same time.

Goldman Sachs turned around, and Pei Hansheng's eyes were red with anger.

He dared not say that his wife was becoming more and more capable.

"President Pei, we've arrived at Jinxiu Jiayuan."

Pei Hansheng snapped out of his thoughts and, relying on his memory, recited the exact room number where Qiao Wan was staying.

Goldman Sachs knocked on the door. Shen Yingtang thought it was the McDonald's delivery she had ordered for Xiaobao, and walked out in her slippers, saying, "Coming."

The door opened, and a tall, imposing man came into view. She was so frightened that she closed the door. Gao Sheng stepped in and pushed the door open again.

Shen Yingtang smiled and said, "President Pei, why didn't you give us a heads-up? You didn't even prepare anything nice to entertain our distinguished guest."

Xiao Bao ran out of the children's room barefoot.

"Is Mommy back? Isn't she going abroad anymore?"

Pei Hansheng narrowed his eyes, his hawk-like gaze locking onto Xiao Bao.

Which country did your mommy go to?

Shen Yingtang coughed twice: "My sister-in-law went to the British Film Festival to be a judge."

"Is that so?" Pei Hansheng coldly curled his lips: "Goldman Sachs, go investigate."

He stepped into the house, and the cozy room instantly felt cramped and uneasy.

Xiao Bao clenched his chubby fingers and frowned.

"Uncle Pei, did you come to see me?"

Pei Hansheng's face was cold: "I'm looking for Qiao Wan."

"Why did you see Qiao Xiaowan this morning and then again tonight? Don't you have any friends of your own?"

"That's right, Uncle has a bad temper, and only Qiao Xiaowan can put up with it. Call her now and tell her to come back and that Uncle is waiting for her at home."

Shen Yingtang broke out in a cold sweat.

To say that Pei Hansheng's business is so big and cunning is an understatement. He doesn't even need to actively seek people out; people will willingly and obediently come back.

His relationship with Qiao Wan was always something he could manipulate at will.

Xiao Bao shook his head: "No, it's not possible. It's Qiao Xiaowan's freedom to go wherever she wants. I won't call her."

"Then Uncle will hit it himself."

Pei Hansheng sneered, staring at Xiao Bao, without taking out his phone. His number was on Qiao Wan's blacklist, so he couldn't call.

During the minute he remained silent, Xiao Bao hesitated, saying, "I'll do it. You look fierce, like a bad guy. Qiao Xiaowan will be worried."

Pei Hansheng's sinister face stiffened. He was used to using the tactics he used at the negotiating table to intimidate people, and they worked very well. He never expected that a child would call him bad.

Xiao Bao ran to the sofa, picked up his Little Genius watch, and dialed Qiao Wan's number.

"Qiao Xiaowan, don't come back, okay? Go out and have fun..."

"Xiao Bao, why are you saying things like that?"

"Ugh... that great demon..."

Before Xiao Bao could finish speaking, Pei Hansheng snatched the phone and watch away. Xiao Bao plopped down on the ground and burst into tears.

Qiao Wanxin's heart clenched: "What's wrong, baby? What kind of big devil? Quickly give the phone to your godmother."

She spoke in a sob-filled voice as she got up and ran toward the exit.

Xiao Bao clung to Pei Hansheng's leg, behaving like a rascal, punching and hitting him like a punching bag. The man lowered his eyes and pinched his brow: "Qiao Wan, remember to come home. I'll be waiting for you."

Qiao Wan's rapid running pace came to a halt.

The chill seeped into my body from the soles of my feet, and my heart felt completely cold.

She strode towards the airport exit, radiating anger: "Pei Hansheng, if you dare touch Xiaobao, I'll kill you!"
