"It's time to get off work. Have a good rest and don't be too tired." Fang Youyou said with concern.

"Yeah." Su Xingran nodded.

After Fang Youyou walked out of the office, she picked up her phone to reply to the message sent by the mysterious man. The moment she saw the message, her mind was only thinking about investigating the matter, forgetting that tomorrow was the anniversary of the man’s mother’s death and she didn’t have time to go.

"I am not free tomorrow, but I will definitely be at the designated place at the agreed time the day after tomorrow."

After the text message was sent, there was no message from the other party for several minutes.

He would not ignore her. There was really no way for her to go out tomorrow. If she insisted on going out, the man would definitely suspect her.

Is there any way to get out tomorrow? An Xiaoli's excuse, she can't use it now, the man will definitely come to her directly.

Su Xingran has been pacing back and forth in the office feeling anxious. Why hasn't he sent a message yet? This clue cannot be lost.

Should she call directly?

Just as she was about to dial the number, the text message came.

"No, there's only tomorrow, Miss Su. If you can't come, your mother's matter will never be solved."

After seeing this news, Su Xingran became even more anxious and didn't know what to do.

At other times, she might be able to make up an excuse to go out, but tomorrow was different and she didn't know how to make one.

It was eight o'clock in the evening, which should be not long after dinner. The journey there would also take time, which meant that she had to go there early tomorrow. This was dinner time, so it would be even more difficult to leave.

Is she going to miss this rare opportunity? No! She can't just miss it. At worst, she can just tell the man about it.

Just don't let him show up.

Su Xingran was not focused on his work for the whole afternoon and just stared out the window in a daze.

When she gets off work, the man comes to pick her up. In order to prevent him from noticing anything, you pretend to be normal, as if nothing had happened.

Sitting in the back seat, the man skillfully put his arms around her waist and kissed her cheek.

"Of course, I miss you so much."

The man looked at his young wife beside him with doting eyes, he couldn't look at her enough, with a smile in the corner of his eyes.

Su Xingran was already used to her behavior and did not try to stop her. She just gently pinched his arm with her little hand to tell him not to go too far.

"Your stubble hit me." She said with disgust.

Hearing this, Jiang Tianchen touched his chin with his hand and confirmed that there was no stubble and it was very smooth.

"You little liar, you don't have any stubble."

He tapped her on the head with his hand.

"Hit me again, be careful you'll make me stupid."

Su Xingran looked at the man angrily. This man always knocked her on the forehead from time to time. She really didn't know what there was to knock on him for.

"Why not? I just love your behavior."

Seeing the car heading directly towards the old house, she looked at the man in confusion and asked, "Tomorrow is the anniversary of Auntie's death, aren't you going to buy something?"

"I've already bought it."

Jiang Tianchen always prepares things in advance, because from the day before to the next day, his emotions are particularly unstable and it is not suitable for him to go out to buy these things.

Every year he prepares early, and this year, thanks to Su Xingran, his emotions have stabilized.

“Just buy it.”

Looking out the window, Su Xingran thought about what would happen tomorrow night. She had to think of a way to have the best of both worlds so that she could get out smoothly tomorrow.

Old house

Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang sat on the sofa in the living room with sad faces, not saying a word.

Father Jiang saw the two old people sitting here, his face looked very ugly, and he asked with concern: "Mom and Dad, are you worried about something?"

Father Jiang didn't understand why the old couple were sitting here so quietly. Normally at this time, they were doing their own things and would never be as abnormal as today.

Mrs. Jiang said, "Jiang Hao, you don't know that every year at this time, Tianchen works in the company until the next morning. No matter how we persuade him, it's useless."

Hearing this, a trace of self-blame flashed in Jiang Hao's eyes. Was it because of his departure that Jiang Tianchen became like this?

"Mom and Dad, I am sorry to Tianchen and to you two old people."

"Don't blame yourself too much. Given the situation back then, it was right for you to leave." Old Mrs. Jiang comforted her son.

She had some resentment in her heart back then, but he was her son after all, and she loved him dearly. After so many years, she has let it go.

"Just be a good father in the days ahead."

Old Mrs. Jiang hopes he can stay.

Father Jiang lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Old Lady Jiang in front of him.

"Mom, I'm sorry. I'm back this time. After paying respects to Weiwei tomorrow, Siyun and I will return to the United States the day after tomorrow, and let Tianming study here with Tianchen."

"Well... well, I'll just wait for Ranran to give me a great-grandson. I don't count on you as my son anymore."

Old Mrs. Jiang sighed, feeling helpless, just like she was back then.

When Mr. Jiang heard that the middle-aged man was leaving again, he shouted angrily, "Get out and don't come back."

The old man hit the middle-aged man hard on the back with his cane.

"dad!"

Looking at the angry Mr. Jiang, Lu Siyun had to come over and pull the man away to prevent things from getting out of hand every time it involved their going abroad.

Mr. Jiang was very angry and did not agree with them going out.

"Old man, what are you doing?"

Old Mrs. Jiang held his cane in her hand and glared at Old Mr. Jiang beside her.

The old man instantly became cowardly.

"what happened?"

Jiang Tianchen's voice came from outside the door.

For a moment, everyone was quiet. Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang were shocked and looked at them with incredible eyes.

"Tianchen, you're back?" Old Mrs. Jiang asked uncertainly.

"Yes, grandma, Ranran and I are back." the man replied.

"Grandma, Tianchen and I are coming back. Didn't you say that you wanted me to stay with you in the old house these few days?"

Su Xingran didn't know what was going on. He felt a little confused and thought that the old lady had forgotten.

"Oh, grandma, it's true that when people get old, they tend to forget things."

Old Mrs. Jiang responded with a smile.

How could she forget that this year Ranran is here, and her grandson has a wife. It is indeed different from before.

Father Jiang was supported by Lu Siyun on the side.

"Ranran, come and sit next to grandma." The old lady waved at her.

Su Xingran came to the old lady, and the old lady immediately took her hands affectionately.

"Ran Ran, you must be tired after a day's work. Grandma forgot that you guys are going back to the old house tonight and hasn't even prepared dinner yet."

"It's okay, grandma."

Old Madam Jiang called the servants: "Song Xi, go and prepare the meal."

"Okay, old lady."
