Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

After handling Wu's funeral arrangements, they went directly to the Imperial Hospital. Zhang's wife had regained consciousness, but Baihu was still unconscious.

As soon as he got off the car, he saw Su Xue standing at the gate, looking around anxiously. Lu Jinnan stood next to her with a serious expression, his usual playful demeanor gone.

Tang Junyao, dressed in a black dress, stepped out of Ji Hancheng's Maybach. Su Xue was not surprised to see this; on the contrary, her opinion of Ji Hancheng changed considerably.

She had already taken leave yesterday, intending to go and visit her best friend, but Lu Jinnan wouldn't let her, sticking to her like glue. It turned out he was willing to go to great lengths for his brother.

Seeing her best friend come down, Su Xue quickly stepped forward and took her arm, looking at her face. She noticed she looked much more haggard. "Why didn't you tell me about Aunt Wu's burial?"

She really hadn't thought about this. After learning about her son's accident, her mind went blank. Coupled with the video from this morning, she was on the verge of a breakdown. "I'm sorry, my mind hasn't been working well these past few days, but I'm clear-headed now." She knows what to do.

Su Xue knew her best friend was upset, so she didn't hold it against her. When something so big happens, how can you be perfect in every way? She was already thankful that she wasn't on the verge of a breakdown. "It's okay, I don't mind. I'm just glad you're alright."

I've decided to visit Aunt Wu tomorrow. She's been taking good care of Little Strawberry in Blue City.

Su Xue felt grateful, but she was also feeling uneasy. She was still shaken when Lu Jinnan recounted what had happened. Fortunately, Xiao Youzi was alright, otherwise her best friend would have gone crazy. However, Wu Sao's departure might be a knot in Yao Yao's heart. "Where's Lele? Should we take her to my house and let my mom take care of her for a while?"

She made no attempt to hide anything, saying, "At the Ji residence."

Su Xue thought it was a good idea. The Ji residence was still suitable for Xiao Youzi. There was probably no place more reassuring than the Ji residence, with Grandpa Ji protecting her.

Ji Hancheng and Lu Jinnan followed side by side behind the two women, watching them whisper among themselves.

Lu Jinnan spoke up, "Han Yue said they haven't found out who's behind this yet. The truck driver was diagnosed with severe depression before the accident."

A surge of irritation welled up within him. He pressed his tongue against his back teeth and coldly asked, "Where's the phone number?"

"It's from overseas." Lu Jinnan especially didn't want Xu Man to be the one who did this, but the place they found was H country, which made him very frustrated.

His voice was laced with hostility, "Xu Man?"

Lu Jinnan suppressed his anger, his face also looking grim. "I'm not sure, but the location is definitely over there."

His gaze remained fixed on Lu Jinnan, the implication clear, making Lu Jinnan feel uneasy. He sighed, "If it's her, I won't beg you to spare her life anymore. You decide what to do."

If Xu Man insists on hopping around at the gates of the King of Hell's palace, the King of Hell can't very well refuse. What can he do? He can't exactly send a villa to the Black and White Impermanence, can he?

Having received Lu Jinnan's response, Ji Hancheng strode towards the ward, ignoring the person behind him who was frantically scratching his head in frustration.

Lu Jinnan followed behind, feeling extremely annoyed. He blurted out a national treasure, cursing Xu Man a hundred times before even confirming it was her, for always causing him trouble.

Yesterday's car accident happened suddenly. Han Yue hadn't even had a chance to tell Lu Jinnan who was behind Xu Man's leg injury, as he was already too busy to keep up.

Tang Junyao and Su Xue entered the ordinary ward. Ji Hancheng did not follow them in, afraid that Aunt Zhang would feel uncomfortable. If the two women wanted to talk, it would be superfluous for him to go in. He leaned against the door frame, took out a cigarette, put it between his lips, thought about lighting it but then gave up and put it back untouched.

Tang Junyao pulled up a stool and sat down by the hospital bed. When Aunt Zhang saw someone come in, she slowly opened her eyes, struggled to pull up the corners of her lips, and tried her best to keep smiling.

Looking at Aunt Zhang's pale and bloodless face, Tang Junyao felt a pang of guilt. In such a short time, one was a lively and energetic person lying in bed, one was separated from the dead, and the other was unconscious.

Aunt Zhang's lips were a little dry. She suppressed her emotions and asked softly, "Auntie, would you like some water?"

Su Xue sat on the edge of the bed, smoothing out the blankets for Aunt Zhang, feeling a strange sadness in her heart.

Aunt Zhang shook her head, her voice clearly weak, "Is the young master injured?"

The first thing her own people said when they woke up in the hospital was about Xiaoyouzi's safety. How could she hold back? Her eyes were slightly red, her vision was blurry, she swallowed hard, and sniffed twice. "Lele is safe. You all protected him so well, how could he be hurt?"

Hearing this, Aunt Zhang smiled with relief, "That's good. How is Aunt Wu?" Aunt Zhang remembered that Aunt Wu was on the outermost layer of protection, so her injuries must be more serious than hers.

Su Xue was easily sentimental and couldn't control her emotions. She turned around and started sobbing. The more she sobbed, the more she couldn't hold back. So she simply went outside to avoid arousing suspicion from Aunt Zhang. It would be better to tell Aunt Zhang after she recovered.

When Lu Jinnan saw his girlfriend, whom he had coaxed into coming, with tears streaming down her face, his recently calmed agitation returned. He patiently asked, "Is Aunt Zhang not feeling well?"

Su Xue's voice suddenly rose, "You're the one who can't handle it, I'm so touched!" She was genuinely touched.

Why can't good people be rewarded while bad people live long lives? Isn't it said that good deeds are rewarded and evil deeds are punished?

Seeing that Su Xue's makeup was ruined from crying, Lu Jinnan reached into his pocket for tissues, but couldn't find a single one. He then held out an arm in front of Su Xue and asked, "Do you want to wipe it off with my clothes? They're fresh."

The next second, Su Xue wiped her tears and snot all at once on his brand-new shirt without hesitation. After wiping, she added, "Remember to bring tissues next time, the shirt is too stiff."

Lu Jinnan thought about how he couldn't fool the girlfriend he had gotten himself, and said, "Okay, I'll buy some in bulk next time to carry around."

Ji Hancheng couldn't bear to look at the two of them anymore, nor did he care to ask when they got together. His mind was filled with thoughts of the woman inside, and he preferred to stay away from them. Watching the two flirting was too much for him, so he simply walked away.

Only Tang Junyao and Aunt Zhang remained in the ward. She calmed herself down and told a lie, "Auntie, don't worry, Aunt Wu is fine. You should also follow the doctor's orders and recover soon. Lele is still talking about you."

"Oh well, I've been lying here for so long, I'm starting to miss the young master."

"Lele misses you too. Auntie wants to talk to you about something. See if you can agree to it. Aunt Wu has already agreed."

Aunt Zhang was a little suspicious. "Miss, please speak."

She smiled brightly, like a blooming flower. "I want to recognize you as my godmother. Aunt Wu has already agreed. You won't object, will you?"

Aunt Zhang was stunned. This was the young lady of the house, and they were just nannies. How could they let the master's child call them "Mom"? How could they do that?

Aunt Zhang shook her head slightly, indicating that it was absolutely not allowed.

Tang Junyao knew this would be the outcome, and explained, "I knew you would object, so I'll have you and Aunt Wu become godmothers. Is that alright?"

Ignoring Aunt Zhang's objections, she said in a gentle voice, "I lost my mother when I was 10 years old. You and Aunt Wu helped raise me. Now, Lele is also being raised with your help. You deserve to be called godmother. I will take care of you in your old age and see you off when you die. I'm counting on you to help me take care of Lele."

Tears streamed down Aunt Zhang's face like beads from a broken string, falling freely. "Miss Zhang," she thought. What did she do to deserve such a sensible daughter?

Tang Junyao playfully scolded and corrected her address, "Godmother was wrong. From now on, call me Yaoyao. You can't call me Miss anymore, and you can't call me Young Master either. You have to call me Lele."

"Okay, sure."

Tang Junyao took a tissue and wiped away the tears from the corners of Aunt Zhang's eyes. Her own vision was blurry, but she managed a beautiful smile.

Aunt Zhang had just had surgery and couldn't be too tired, so I didn't chat with her for long before leaving. The first thing I did after leaving was to report back from work.

She headed straight for the director's office, but hadn't gone far when a large hand pulled her back from a corner. It was Ji Hancheng, wasn't it? He asked with a suspicious look, "Where are you going?"

As if she had made a decision, she said firmly, "I'm returning from leave."

He had just helped her get two weeks off, and she was already canceling her leave because she wasn't ready to go back to work. "I helped you get two weeks off."

She said, "I know, that's why I canceled my leave."

His tone softened, and he said in a conciliatory tone, "Let's rest for another week."

"No." She can only lure the snake out by going to work normally; if it hides at home, it won't come out to cause trouble.

Seeing her resolute attitude, he frowned, a hint of suspicion creeping into his eyes, and a sense of panic rising within him. "What are you planning to do?"

"Catch the snake."

The next second, his expression turned frosty, and he objected, "Are you crazy? I said I'll handle things."

She took a deep breath and spoke her mind, "Ji Hancheng and his group are targeting not only Lele, but also me. I'm relieved that Lele is safe at the Ji residence right now, but if I hide too, the snakes won't come out of their holes. I don't want to live in fear, and I don't want to gamble on whether tomorrow or an accident will come first."

She wanted to live a good life, and for all those who loved her and whom she loved to be healthy and happy, including Aunt Zhang, Baihu, and everyone else.

The other party's intentions were already very clear: they wanted their lives. If she were to continue hiding, she wouldn't be Tang Junyao.

He knew that once she made a decision, she wouldn't change it. She was very stubborn. He knew this two years ago; once she decided to divorce, she wouldn't stay overnight and would leave without hesitation.

With a reluctance and a cold face, she agreed, "I'll send someone to protect you secretly." She neither objected to this nor tried to be defiant; she still had Lele and couldn't let anything happen to her.
