Su Yutang coughed lightly and explained apologetically, "Xiaoman, this matter... the four little ones were indeed a bit reckless, letting you get married without your consent... but I guarantee with my integrity that Lin An is absolutely reliable. The first thing he'll do when we get back is to make you divorce. This time, it was mainly to get rid of Qiao Siyue, so it was a last resort..."

Wen Xiaoman shook her head, casually placed the marriage certificate aside, and said calmly, "It's okay, Tangtang, I understand. I also want to thank the four little treasures. If it weren't for them, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to get rid of Qiao Siyue."

Su Yutang frowned: "Then why do you still look so gloomy?"

Wen Xiaoman looked up at Su Yutang, then at the four curious little ones, and finally told them that Qiao Sinian and Qiao Siyue were twins.

Upon hearing this, Su Yutang's eyes widened in shock, and it took her a long time to process the information: "What? Qiao Siyue actually has a twin brother? So... Si Nian and Qiao Siyue are not the same person at all? The person you were with back then was the older brother, not the younger brother Qiao Siyue?"

The four little ones also gaped in shock.

"Hmm." Wen Xiaoman responded softly, her eyes filled with undisguised loneliness. "I was so stupid. I never realized that Qiao Siyue wasn't him. I thought he had changed."

"Where is he?" Su Yutang hurriedly asked, "Since Qiao Sinian is Xiao Ayan's father, why doesn't he come out to see you? Instead, he lets you be bullied like this by Qiao Siyue?"

Wen Xiaoman's eyelashes trembled, and her voice became even softer: "I...I don't know either."

Su Yutang grabbed her hand: "Xiaoman, do you want to see him?"

Wen Xiaoman hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

She really wanted to see Si Nian. She had many questions she wanted to ask him in person, and she also wanted to know why he had helped her but refused to show himself.

Seeing Wen Xiaoman's distraught state, Su Yutang said with heartache, "Since you want to see him, let's go find him. Xiaoman, do you know where we can find him?"

Wen Xiaoman shook her head blankly at first, but then she remembered the place he had taken her to last time, and her eyes lit up again: "There's a place... we can try, but I'm not sure if he's still there..."

“It’s okay, as long as we have a clue, we’ll give it a try.” Su Yutang said without hesitation, “I’ll go with you.”

A hint of worry flashed in Wen Xiaoman's eyes: "But... I'm afraid I'll run into Qiao Siyue again..."

The shadow that man cast on her was too deep.

Su Yutang squeezed her hand tightly, her voice carrying a reassuring strength, "Don't be afraid, I'm here. I will never let Qiao Siyue take you away again. Besides, we now know that he is not Si Nian. There is no need for this wedding to continue. You don't have to be threatened by him anymore, and you don't have to marry him."

The four little ones immediately surrounded Wen Xiaoman, cheering her on:

"That's right, Aunt Xiaoman, don't forget you still have the red marriage certificate we gave you to protect you."

Erbao waved the marriage certificate, "Even if he wants to continue pressuring you to get married, the law won't recognize it."

"That's right!" Sibao waved his little fist. "We're all your strong support now. We'll all protect you. You don't have to be afraid of that big bad guy anymore!"

"We will help you find the real Uncle Si Nian," Da Bao solemnly promised.

Hearing everyone's comforting words, Wen Xiaoman felt as if a warm current had been injected into her heart.

She nodded, looking at everyone gratefully: "...Thank you."

............

Using her memory, Wen Xiaoman led Su Yutang to the private residence where Qiao Sinian had taken her to stay for a few days before.

However, the door was locked, and no one lived inside.

Wen Xiaoman's heart sank, and she shook her head at Su Yutang: "He's not here."

The only clue has also been lost.

Su Yutang frowned, looking at Xiaoman's disappointed profile, her mind racing.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up. She pulled Wen Xiaoman aside and whispered, "Xiaoman, I have another idea that might help you find Qiao Sinian."

Wen Xiaoman asked anxiously, "What method?"

Su Yutang leaned close to her ear and whispered a few words.

After listening, Wen Xiaoman was stunned for a moment, then a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes, but looking at Su Yutang's determined eyes, she finally nodded.

............

About an hour later, Su Yutang and Wen Xiaoman appeared at the Qiao family's old residence, the old villa where Mr. and Mrs. Qiao lived.

Mr. and Mrs. Qiao had just finished dealing with the mess at the company and returned home exhausted. Before they could even catch their breath, the housekeeper announced that Su Yutang and Wen Xiaoman had come to visit.

Mrs. Qiao had a good impression of Su Yutang, and even felt some affection for her, so she mustered her spirits to prepare for receiving her.

But when she saw Wen Xiaoman standing next to her, her face instantly turned cold.

It wasn't that she disliked Wen Xiaoman that much, but she was unhappy. This woman had caused her son, Si Yue, to lose his mind, which made her, as a mother, feel extremely upset.

Although Qiao Siyue was at fault, was this woman completely innocent? If Siyue hadn't fallen for her and insisted on marrying her, all these troubles wouldn't have happened.

Mrs. Qiao's tone was distant, with obvious displeasure. "Miss Wen, what brings you here again? You must be aware of the chaos our Qiao family has experienced today. We simply don't have the energy to entertain guests right now. As for your wedding with Si Yue, let's just consider it a farce and call it off."

Wen Xiaoman's face paled slightly from this blunt coldness, and she pursed her lips tightly.

Seeing this, Su Yutang took a step forward and said, "Mrs. Qiao, I apologize for disturbing you, but we are here today not for the second young master Qiao Siyue, but for the eldest young master, Qiao Sinian."

"Si Nian?"

Mrs. Qiao and Mr. Qiao, who was sitting to the side rubbing his temples, were both taken aback.

Su Yutang continued, "Xiaoman and your eldest son, Qiao Sinian, were boyfriend and girlfriend and had a deep relationship. She was misled by the second young master and thought that Qiao Siyue was Qiao Sinian. She only recently learned that they were twin brothers. Xiaoman has a lot of questions she wants to ask Mr. Qiao Sinian in person, but she has been unable to contact him. That's why she has taken the liberty of coming here to inquire about his whereabouts from you two."

Her words were packed with information, and both Mrs. and Mr. Qiao looked on with surprise and uncertainty.

Boyfriend and girlfriend? Deeply in love?

After hearing Su Yutang's words, Madam Qiao asked in shock, "You mean... she's actually my eldest son Sinian's girlfriend?"
