school.

As Mengmeng entered the classroom, Tangtang ran from her seat to hers.

"Is your sister not coming to school today?" Tangtang asked curiously, her hands resting on the edge of the table.

Mengmeng put down her schoolbag and nodded in response, "Sister Tiantian sleepwalked last night, so Dad took her to get a medical check-up."

Although she didn't see anyone downstairs, the shouts of protest were loud enough for Mengmeng to hear.

Sensing the juicy gossip, Tangtang noticed the empty seat in front of Mengmeng. She immediately pulled out a chair, straddled it, and excitedly asked, "Is she sick? But she was fine when she came to my house yesterday!"

Mengmeng hesitated.

Sleepwalking isn't a serious illness, but for Sweetie, it's a personal and private matter. It can't be discussed without her permission.

Mengmeng looked at Tangtang with embarrassment and said, "Tangtang, class is about to start, aren't you going back to your seat?"

The meaning behind the words was obvious, and Tangtang was not oblivious to it.

As a good friend, she certainly didn't want to put Mengmeng in a difficult position because of her gossip. She got up from her seat, said goodbye, and walked back to her place.

As soon as I sat down, the teacher entered the classroom.

……

ding dong~

The doorbell rang, and Xie Yumin reached out to open the door.

The moment the door opened, Tian Tian couldn't believe her eyes.

Ruolan?

Why is she here?

Does the Gu residence have a second place of residence?

Before her doubts could be answered, Xie Beiling's appearance shocked Tian Tian once again.

Is this catching someone in the act of adultery?

Sweetie's pupils dilated as she stared in disbelief at the two people behaving intimately in front of her.

She had met Xie Beiling at the Gu residence. He and Gu Yinshen were best friends. She never expected that he would steal her away and have an unspeakable relationship with her friend's woman.

Sweetie's inner gossip kept growing, like a sphere about to burst out.

"Yin Shen, why did you come here so suddenly?" Xie Beiling asked as he stepped forward.

Looking at Xie Yumin, who looked exactly like Ruolan, Gu Yinshen felt somewhat uncomfortable.

"I called you here to give her a medical check-up," Gu Yinshen explained, pointing to Tian Tian beside him.

Since the DNA test revealed that Tian Tian and Gu Yinshen were related by blood, Xie Beiling's opinion of her has changed somewhat.

"What's wrong with your body?"

Is there a cure for sleepwalking?

"She was sleepwalking?"

Gu Yinshen nodded in response to Xie Beiling's question.

"Let's go inside and talk," Xie Beiling said, stepping aside to let the two people outside the door in.

The two's friendly exchange left Tian Tian completely baffled.

Could it be that Ruolan and Gu Yinshen are only husband and wife in name only? In reality, they have long been living separate lives, only pretending to be a harmonious couple in front of their children and outsiders?

She followed him blankly into the house. She looked around and saw that although it was not as luxurious as the Gu residence, the house had a warm atmosphere.

Xie Yumin came out of the kitchen carrying a tray of tea. Looking at Tiantian, she moved the fruit plate closer to her.

“Mom!” Sweetie said.

Such an intimate address left Xie Yumin at a loss for words.

She's still unmarried, so where would she get such a big child?

Gu Yinshen looked at Xie Yumin with an embarrassed expression, "I'm sorry, she mistook me for someone else."

Xie Yumin thought of Ruolan, who looked exactly like her, whom she had seen on the news, and realized that Tiantian had mistaken her for her.

"It's alright, Mr. Gu, there's no need to feel sorry."

Xie Beiling spoke up to ease the tension, "Don't mistake her for someone else next time. This is my future wife, not your mother."

Her mind was in a mess. Tian Tian looked at Xie Yumin, who was almost indistinguishable from Ruolan, and couldn't separate the two of them.

Feeling somewhat uncomfortable being stared at, Xie Yumin glanced at Xie Beiling and said, "Beiling, I'll go upstairs first."

"No need, I'll take them to the study." Xie Beiling stood up from the sofa.

Knowing that his sudden arrival had caused some disturbance, Gu Yinshen immediately followed Xie Beiling and led Tian Tian upstairs.

The bookshelves in the study were piled high with books, mostly about medicine.

Sweetie sat on the sofa inside, nervously watching Xie Beiling sitting opposite her.

"When did you start sleepwalking?" Xie Beiling asked.

“Last night,” Gu Yinshen thought for a moment, “As for whether this had happened before, I don’t know.”

Xie Beiling got up and came to Tian Tian. He reached out and lifted her eyelids, shining a flashlight into her pupils.

There are two main reasons for sleepwalking symptoms. First, genetic factors. Second, psychological trauma can lead to poor sleep quality, thus causing sleepwalking symptoms.

Have you and Ruolan ever experienced these symptoms?

"Never."

Gu Yinshen answered without hesitation.

Not only them, but even the children in the family have never engaged in such behavior.

Having ruled out genetic factors, Xie Beiling already had some answers in mind.

“Sleepwalking doesn’t happen often, so we’ll control it with medication for now. If it gets worse, we’ll then do psychotherapy,” Xie Beiling said.

"Can't we combine psychotherapy and medication at the same time?" Gu Yinshen pressed.

He didn't want what happened last night to happen again.

"If you want, that's fine too," Xie Beiling replied.

"Then let's do both together." Gu Yinshen made the decision directly, without asking Tian Tian's opinion at all.

Xie Beiling glanced at Tian Tian but didn't say anything to remind Gu Yinshen.

Sleepwalking can become severe and lead to very serious actions. To prevent Mengmeng from getting hurt because of her, the symptoms should be controlled as early as possible.

As she came out of the study, Tian Tian saw Xie Yumin sitting on the sofa. She immediately ran towards her and sat down beside her.

“Auntie, you look just like my mom. Have you ever met my mom?” Tian Tian took the initiative to speak to Xie Yumin.

She had never met the person in person, but she had seen them on television news and knew that the two looked alike.

Xie Yumin nodded.

"It's so amazing, how can there be such identical strangers?" Sweetie expressed her shock.

A scheme began to form in her mind.

Xie Yumin smiled awkwardly, after all, she didn't know the specific reason.

Gu Yinshen and Xie Beiling walked to the sofa, and he said to Tian Tian, ​​"We're going back now."

"Daddy, I want to stay here a little longer." Sweetie didn't want to leave.

She hadn't even gotten close to Xie Yumin yet, so how could she leave so easily?

Gu Yinshen came to her side and reached out to lift her up from the sofa. "It's time to go back."

"Daddy!" Sweetie twisted her arms in protest.

The more she struggled, the more impatient Gu Yinshen became.
