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

Are a bunch of beasts also our closest relatives?

Sweetie sneered, "Are animals people in your mind? Then what about people?"

"Sister Sweetie, Mengmeng doesn't understand." Mengmeng looked confused.

A person is just a person, what else could they be?

"Humans are superior to animals. If you're treating animals as humans, then aren't humans even inferior to animals?" Sweetie didn't mince words and used them to shut Mengmeng up.

But in her heart, they were no different, and no one was superior to the other.

"Sister Sweetie, what Mengmeng just said means that Xiaobai and Huabaobao are also very important to Mengmeng. They're like family to her, and Mengmeng can't live without them either." After explaining earnestly, Mengmeng tentatively asked, "Can I rest in Sister Sweetie's room some more?"

“Good sisters should sleep in each other’s rooms. You came to my room yesterday, so it’s my turn to go to your room today. You’re making excuses here. It seems that I’m not important to you.” Sweetie angrily shook off Mengmeng’s hand.

That's not what she meant...

Mengmeng wanted to explain, but Tiantian had already gone far away, and she had no chance to say her explanation.

At the school gate, Ruolan sat in the car, craning her neck to wait.

"Madam, shall I go down and take a look?" Old Zhang noticed Ruolan's urgency and suggested.

This was the first time Ruolan had gone out since waking up, and also the first time she had appeared at the school gate to pick up her child from school.

"I'll go," Ruolan said, reaching out to open the car door.

Seeing that there were many people gathered outside, Old Zhang quickly discussed with Ruolan, "Madam, there are many people and cars at the school gate. Why don't you stay in the car and I'll go over there?"

She is the most precious person in the Gu family. If anything were to happen to her, even ten of him wouldn't be able to bear the consequences.

"It's alright, I'll just get out and stand outside the crowd to take a look inside. Nothing will happen." As soon as she finished speaking, Ruolan opened the car door.

She put on sunglasses and tried to move to a less crowded area.

"What a beautiful auntie!" Tangtang couldn't help but exclaim.

Tang Yibai followed the gaze and immediately recognized Ruolan.

"Mengmeng's mom?" Tang Yibai greeted her.

Ruolan was surprised that she could be recognized even though Ruolan was wearing sunglasses.

"Your WeChat profile picture is a selfie. I'm Tangtang's dad. I replied to you in the group yesterday," Tang Yibai explained.

I still remember that it was after seeing his reply that I asked Tian Tian about the actual situation after school yesterday afternoon.

With her doubts dispelled, Ruolan immediately replied enthusiastically, "Thank you so much for yesterday, Tangtang's dad."

"I wasn't of much help, so there's no need for thanks," Tang Yibai said with a smile.

Tangtang, who had been standing to the side, looked at Ruolan and couldn't help but step forward and tug at her hand, "Auntie."

"You're Tangtang?" Ruolan gently squatted down and took off her sunglasses.

Tangtang nodded. After a moment of internal struggle, she spoke up: "Auntie, I want to tell you that Tiantian often makes Mengmeng do things she doesn't like at school."

"What?" Ruolan was a little confused.

"Mengmeng wants to be best friends with Tiantian, but Tiantian is always warm and cold towards Mengmeng. Mengmeng doesn't want to go to the bathroom, but Tiantian insists that she go, otherwise she gets angry," Tangtang continued.

Sweetie used to ask her to do things the same way. At first, she didn't understand and thought it was normal for good friends to help each other.

Later, after becoming friends with Mengmeng, she realized that it was bullying. They used the guise of being good friends to make her do things she didn't like.

Now Mengmeng is experiencing the same things she did before, but she doesn't know it herself.

"mom!"

When Tian Tian came out of the school and saw Ruolan, she practically danced and shouted excitedly.

Mengmeng, who was behind, heard this and looked surprised, but after the surprise came sadness.

Did Mom come here specifically to pick up Sweetie?

Through a gap in the crowd, Mengmeng saw Tiantian open her arms and happily rush into Ruolan's embrace.

Such a high-profile scene attracted the attention of the parents who were still waiting for their children to come out.

"Why does she look like Mrs. Gu from the Gu Group?"

“I know the child next to her, her name is Tiantian, and she is in the same class as my child. I saw her post on WeChat yesterday looking for my child in the class group.”

"Is she Mrs. Gu?"

Upon hearing this, many people around him showed no interest on the surface, but they all perked up their ears, afraid of missing any important information.

With so many people around, the parents who knew the truth didn't want to get involved, so they nodded.

It exploded in an instant!

"If I remember correctly, Madam Gu passed away three years ago."

"Exactly, why are you standing here all of a sudden?"

"Was there a problem in your relationship back then, so you deliberately spread rumors?"

"No, no, I remember very clearly, she has indeed passed away."

As the discussion grew, more and more parents learned about it.

Tang Yibai couldn't help but remind her, "Mengmeng's mom, you should go back to the car first."

Given her identity and her past experiences, it's truly inconvenient for her to continue standing here.

Sweetie grabbed Ruolan's arm, stopping her from leaving, "Mommy, Mengmeng is still behind and hasn't come out yet."

Having witnessed Mengmeng nearly getting lost yesterday, Ruolan dared not leave Mengmeng alone again.

"Thank you for reminding me, Tangtang's dad. Everything's fine for now. I'll wait here until Mengmeng comes out before leaving," Ruolan said, continuing to stand in place.

Tang Yibai looked around and he truly admired Ruolan's mental fortitude.

The surrounding discussions were so loud, and they were all about her life or death. If it were him, he probably would have already tried to leave the scene when the news started circulating on a small scale.

"Then we'll leave first."

"Okay, goodbye Tangtang!"

Looking at Ruolan's smile, just like Mengmeng, Tangtang smiled and replied, "Goodbye, Auntie."

Tangtang's gaze inadvertently fell on Tiantian's face, and she immediately became nervous.

If she finds out that she told Ruolan's mother on her behalf, will she just hit her?

She wasn't scared at all when she said it, but after she did, Tangtang became worried.

"Tangtang?" Tang Yibai called out.

"Dad, let's go quickly," Tangtang urged.

Tang Yibai mistakenly thought she was worried about others seeing her fingers, so he nodded and led her toward the car.

During the peak time after school, students of all ages walked out, causing Mengmeng to be sandwiched in the middle and her movements to be restricted.

"Mom~" Ruolan called out, feeling someone grab her arm from the crowd. She instinctively struggled, but the pull became stronger.

Seeing that Mengmeng was having difficulty moving, Tiantian deliberately shouted loudly to make the people around them even more curious.
