When I opened my eyes, I went back to the night when I forced my husband to give birth to a son.

"Beiguo did ask him out, but you know, even when we did, he would always call me and send me messages, always wanting to know what I was doing. It was really annoying."

The more Ji Yuelan spoke, the angrier she became. She didn't know why Song Nancheng became more clingy as he got older.

Seeing her like this, Su Xiaowan couldn't help but ask, "Yuelan, you don't usually go out with Brother Nancheng, do you?"

Based on her understanding of Song Nancheng, he is not the kind of person who has to drag others down, not to mention that they have had a relationship for decades.

Song Nancheng would only do this if he felt a sense of crisis.

Ji Yuelan felt a little guilty, but still said frankly, "We do go out often, but when we went out to play some time ago, Nancheng answered the phone and happened to meet a boy in his early twenties, about the same age as Enen."

"I had a very happy chat with the boy at that time, and then he asked for my contact information. Because he was studying something similar to what our company was doing, I thought about asking him to come to our company for an interview."

Su Xiaowan guessed it to some extent, and just asked, "Then what?"

"Later, he went to the company. Enen said that this boy was very smart and they were planning to give him a promotion."

"Then what does this have to do with you? Brother Nancheng is not angry about this, right? That's not the case."

Su Xiaowan was very puzzled. After all, Song Nancheng always considered the overall situation when it came to major matters.

"I arranged for that boy to go to the company and he had no objection. Later, he got promoted and he invited me to dinner, but I didn't agree."

Ji Yuelan felt annoyed and irritated when talking about this, and stirred the coffee in front of her.

"Later, I went out for coffee and ran into him by chance. We sat together and chatted. Who would have thought that the boy said he liked me? I was shocked at the time. After all, he was the same age as Enen and was just a child in my eyes."

Su Xiaowan was not surprised. After all, Ji Yuelan looked really attractive now.

"So did Brother Nancheng find out later?"

"It's not that he knew, but I told him. After that, he stuck to me like a dog-skin plaster. I told him that I would never like anyone else, but he just didn't believe it."

Ji Yuelan was also very distressed, "Xiao Wan, what do you think I should do to make Nancheng a little more normal?"

"I think Brother Nancheng should have a sense of crisis. After all, you have such a young boy pursuing you. Men, to some extent, have a hunter mentality."

"That's right, that's why I'm really annoyed with him. I can't wait to be apart from him for a while."

Su Xiaowan realized the seriousness of the situation and hurriedly said, "Yuelan, this won't do. Brother Nancheng is like this more because he lacks a sense of security."

"He's worried that you'll fall in love with someone else. This problem is easy to solve. You just have to let him know that you won't leave him."

Ji Yuelan was even more annoyed. "How could I possibly leave him? Not to mention that I have liked him for so long, it is impossible for me to leave him with just these children."

"That's what you think. Brother Nancheng must be afraid that you don't want him anymore."

Su Xiaowan's tone was very affirmative. Sometimes, when Xiao Beiguo saw young boys approaching her, he would step forward and reveal his identity.

"He's already over 40 years old, but he's still acting like a child. If I really wanted to find another man, I would have married him."

Ji Yuelan was speechless. She really couldn't understand Song Nancheng's train of thought.

"Although that's what I said, it also proves that Brother Nancheng's feelings for you are deeper than your feelings for him, otherwise it wouldn't be like this."

Su Xiaowan saw it more clearly, and looked at her and said, "Yuelan, if you love Brother Nancheng so much, you should spend more time on it. Do you really want to make him sad?"

"How did I end up with such an old man?"

Ji Yuelan pouted, feeling helpless. She really didn't want to hurt Song Nancheng's heart.

"Okay, don't think too much. I'll go shopping with you later. After we're done, we'll have dinner together and you'll feel better."

Ji Yuelan felt more comfortable, and hugged her arm and said, "Xiao Wan, you are still the best. No matter what time I am, you can understand me."

"It's not that I understand you, but I've seen too many things. Besides, it's not unreasonable to say that a bystander sees more clearly."

"You love Brother Nancheng so much, but you are willing to make him sad."

As she was speaking, Su Xiaowan's phone rang. Seeing that it was Xiao Beiguo calling, she answered it.

Xiao Beiguo's anxious voice came from the other side, "Xiao Wan, where are you?"

"I'm drinking coffee with Yue Lan, what's wrong?"

Su Xiaowan didn't care too much about it. She stirred her coffee and looked into the distance comfortably.

"Tell me the address and I'll pick you up now."

While Xiao Beiguo was speaking, he had already started the car.

"No need, I drove here, you just go do your thing."

Xiao Beiguo was very determined, "Xiao Wan, be obedient and tell me the address."

Su Xiaowan was very confused, but still told the address, and then asked, "Beiguo, did something happen?"

"I'll talk to you when I get there. I'll be there in fifteen minutes at most." Xiao Beiguo didn't say much, but he didn't hang up the phone either.

Ji Yuelan couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Wan, what's wrong? What does Beiguo want to see you about?"

"I don't know. He seems very anxious."

Su Xiaowan covered her heart with her hands, feeling a sharp pain as if something had stabbed into it.

"Xiao Wan, what's wrong with you?" Ji Yuelan was so scared that she quickly got up and went over.

"Yue Lan, I feel very uncomfortable in my chest. I don't know what's wrong."

"Let me take you to the hospital." Ji Yuelan was very anxious and took out her phone to call Song Nancheng.

"No need Yuelan."

Su Xiaowan realized something and asked the other end of the phone, "Beiguo, is it Zigui who called?"

Something happened to Su's mother.

"Xiao Wan, don't think about anything, just wait for me to come over."

Xiao Beiguo didn't dare to say more, for fear of irritating her.

"So it's my mother, right?" Su Xiaowan couldn't stop shaking. Her mother was less than seventy years old. She was fine when she called her two days ago.

"Xiao Wan, don't get excited. We'll ask after you get back to me."

Ji Yuelan watched her body shaking uncontrollably, feeling worried and distressed.

"Xiao Wan, don't think about anything. I'll be there soon." Xiao Beiguo drove fast all the way, constantly comforting her.

He knew too well what Su's mother meant to her, but this incident happened too suddenly.

Even Su Zigui and his wife didn't notice anything unusual. Su's mother just passed away as if she had fallen asleep.

When they arrived, Su Xiaowan saw Xiao Beiguo's car and staggered over. Xiao Beiguo hurriedly got out of the car and supported her.

She grabbed Xiao Beiguo's arm tightly with both hands and asked, "Beiguo, tell me, what happened?"

Looking at her scarlet eyes, Xiao Beiguo felt so upset, but he still held back his sadness and said, "Xiao Wan, mother is gone. At noon, she had lunch and said she was going upstairs to take a nap. In the afternoon, Zigui's wife saw that she didn't get up, so she went to the room to call her, and found that she was gone."

"Mother passed away peacefully, without suffering. I think she is at peace. Don't be too sad. Mother hopes you are well."
