The richest man's parents were kidnapped, and his adorable son captivated the entire family.

"Auntie, could you stay with Mengmeng and wait for Uncle to come?"

Xie Yumin put down her phone, listened to Mengmeng's request, and immediately agreed, "Of course you can. Auntie doesn't feel comfortable leaving you here alone."

Mengmeng clapped her hands excitedly, "Great!"

Seeing the smile on her small face, Xie Yumin smiled too.

......

Xie Beiling drove out of the research institute and, while waiting at a traffic light, dialed Gu Yinshen's number.

After a few beeps, the phone was immediately answered.

"Beiling, I'm very busy right now. Let's talk about it later."

"What are you all so busy with? Why did you leave Mengmeng outside all alone?"

Gu Yinshen was about to hang up when Xie Beiling questioned him, so he put the phone back to his ear. "What did you say? You know where Mengmeng is?"

"A lady just called me, saying she's with Mengmeng and wants me to come pick her up and take her home." Xie Beiling's tone was icy as he angrily rebuked, "If you can't handle the relationship between your new daughter's return and Mengmeng, then send Mengmeng to me first. She's so young, and you just leave her out there wandering around like that. What if she encounters danger? Have you even considered these issues?"

"Send me the address," Gu Yinshen said anxiously.

Xie Beiling didn't know what the situation was like over there. He hung up the phone and forwarded the location sent from the unknown number to Gu Yinshen.

Upon receiving the information, Gu Yinshen immediately set off with Gu Shiyu.

"Dad, why did Mengmeng call Uncle Ling instead of us? Is she angry with us?" Gu Shiyu felt uneasy, as if Mengmeng wanted to leave the Gu family and have no more contact with them.

Gu Yinshen was also confused. When he received Xie Beiling's call again, he could hardly believe his ears. They had been searching for Mengmeng so desperately, but they never expected that it would be Mengmeng who went to Xie Beiling and asked him to take her home.

The car sped up again, racing along the road.

On the other side, Xie Beiling looked at the traffic lights that were getting in his way and wished he could just run over them.

......

The rain outside stopped, and the customers inside the restaurant all got up and left. In just a few minutes, only Mengmeng and Xie Yumin remained in the entire restaurant.

Is Aunt Yumian already getting impatient?

"Auntie, do you have anything else to do later?" Mengmeng asked nervously, noticing that Xie Yumin was constantly looking at her phone.

Uncle Ling will be here soon, Aunt Yu Mian must not leave.

Hearing the question, Xie Yumin looked up from her phone screen. "What?"

"Auntie, Mengmeng really wants you to stay with her until Uncle comes." Mengmeng looked at Xie Yumin pitifully.

Similarly, Xie Yumin also heard the worry in Mengmeng's voice. She put the phone back in her bag and reached out to stroke Mengmeng's forehead. "Auntie will stay with Mengmeng until Uncle comes back. I kept looking at my phone because I was afraid that Mengmeng's uncle would send me a message and I wouldn't see it."

So this is ah!

Mengmeng breathed a sigh of relief, revealing her adorable little bunny teeth.

As time ticked by, Gu Shiyu grew increasingly anxious in the car.

"Dad, how much longer?"

"ten minutes."

"Will Uncle Ling go over there first and pick Mengmeng up directly?"

"Probably not. Your Uncle Ling may be angry, but he's not an unreasonable person. Since he took the initiative to call and message us after contacting Mengmeng, he wouldn't do anything to affect the relationship between our two families."

"hope so!"

The car turned right at the traffic light ahead, and the navigation showed that we were getting closer and closer to our destination.

Gu Shiyu stared at the window, afraid of missing Mengmeng.

"Shi Yu, we've arrived."

Gu Yinshen parked the car in the open space and looked at Xie Beiling's car parked next to him.

Looking out the window at the restaurant's floor-to-ceiling windows from the passenger seat, Gu Shiyu said, "Dad, Mom is here too."

Gu Yinshen had already opened the car door and gotten out of the car.

Upon seeing Xie Beiling and 'Ruolan' in the restaurant, he exclaimed incredulously, "What's Ruolan doing here?"

Now that she found Mengmeng, why didn't she contact him?

Just as the two were beginning to question what was before them, an argument broke out among the people inside.

"Yu Mian? It really is you!" Xie Beiling cried tears of joy and opened his arms to hug Xie Yu Mian.

"Beiling!" Xie Yumin took a step back, unable to believe that Mengmeng's uncle was actually Xie Beiling.

It's truly a cruel twist of fate!

She lived like a mouse that couldn't bear the sunlight, hiding away and only daring to come out for some fresh air at night. But she never expected that while she could evade Xie Beiling, she couldn't evade the people she knew.

Seeing Xie Yumin back away, Xie Beiling immediately stopped. "Okay, okay, Yumin, I won't touch you. Don't get agitated, and don't think about leaving, okay?"

Xie Yumin felt very sad seeing Xie Beiling, who was so noble in the eyes of outsiders, lower his posture for her sake.

The disparity between them is too great, and there are too many other factors involved, making it impossible for them to be together.

"Beiling, please let me go?" Xie Yumin pleaded helplessly.

The words struck Xie Beiling, who shuddered and gaped in disbelief. "Let you go? I'll let you go?"

"We are siblings! We can't be lovers!" Xie Yumin shouted angrily.

Mengmeng, standing beside her, watched as Xie Yumin's eyes turned bloodshot, her hands waving in the air with the force of her voice. She seemed like a completely different person from the gentle Aunt Yumin she had just been.

She had just regained consciousness, and Xie Beiling, not wanting to upset her, quickly and gently soothed her, "Yumian, I know, I know what you're saying. Let's talk properly, shall we sit here? Okay?"

"Oh no!" Xie Yumin grabbed the coat from the backrest behind her and struggled to get away.

Half a month later, Xie Beiling finally saw the 'lover' who appeared in his dreams. How could he be so magnanimous as to let her leave right under his nose?

Xie Beiling turned around and grabbed Xie Yumin's arm.

"Let go of me!" Xie Yumin slapped Xie Beiling's shoulder. "You bastard, Xie Beiling, you son of a bitch!"

Xie Beiling carried Xie Yumin on his back and led her outside.

Gu Shiyu, who was walking towards Xie Beiling, looked at him and reached out to stop him, "Uncle Ling, what are you doing?"

Gu Shiyu didn't understand why he carried his mother away.

"Shi Yu, get out of the way!" Xie Beiling coldly ordered.

Seeing Xie Yumin, who was being carried on his shoulder and making a scene while yelling and cursing Xie Beiling, Gu Yinshen instantly understood.

It's no wonder Xie Beiling mistook Ruolan for someone else when they saw her, since there were two strangers in the world who looked so alike.
