Si Qingyou looked at Gao Nianci, who was constantly drinking tea, as if only in this way could she calm down.

Si Qingyou didn't say much to her, but just looked at her silently, waiting for her to speak to her.

I have a son who is about your age.

Gao Nianci looked at her, her eyes brimming with tears.

“His father passed away when he was six years old. I was left to manage the company and raise him all by myself until he grew up… He was doing well until five months ago when he went to Italy and was involved in a plane crash. He never came back!”

As Gao Nianci spoke these words, tears finally broke free and streamed down her face.

"After my son passed away, I felt like my life was completely dark. I didn't even know what my value was in living, or what I was doing now?"

Even as Gao Nianci speaks these words, her voice trembles.

"These days have passed in a daze. Later, I felt my son was always by my side, and although I felt this sense of contentment, I noticed my body was deteriorating. My hair was turning white, and wrinkles were appearing on my face... The hyaluronic acid I just had injected into my face yesterday—normally this dosage should last at least half a year, but it will be completely gone in just three days. I feel so terrified by all this. Please help me..."

After Gao Nianci finished speaking, she reached out and grasped Si Qingyou's hand.

"Okay! You go back first, and I'll come to your house tonight!"

Si Qingyou nodded, looking at Gao Nianci. Although her face was maintained with minor cosmetic surgery, her eyes still showed signs of fatigue.

"Can I stay here? I'm feeling a little tired right now and I want to rest for a bit. I'll stay here and wait for you to come to my place tonight, okay?"

Gao Nianci looked at Si Qingyou expectantly.

"Alright then, I'll tell the servants not to come in. You can rest here comfortably!"

Si Qingyou nodded, stood up, and walked outside.

Gao Nianci watched her leave, then lay down on the sofa, the faint fragrance lingering in her nostrils.

She yawned. Strangely enough, in this unfamiliar place, she felt inexplicably sleepy and now felt tired.

Gao Nianci turned her face towards the inside of the sofa and fell asleep shortly afterward.

Si Qingyou had been practicing her internal energy cultivation in her room. When she had lunch at noon, she went to check on Gao Nianci and found that she was sleeping soundly, so she did not disturb her.

By nightfall, Gao Nianci still hadn't woken up, but Si Qingyou couldn't let her continue sleeping like that.

"President Gao!"

Si Qingyou gently patted her shoulder, and Gao Nianci stirred and opened her eyes.

"Is it too late?"

She noticed that the light inside the room was getting dimmer and dimmer.

Gao Nianci sat up.

"It's already five o'clock, let's go out for dinner together!"

Si Qingyou suggested.

The Si family's dinner time is six o'clock, so it's not appropriate to have Gao Nianci eat at home.

"Okay, I'll treat you to dinner!"

Gao Nianci nodded.

The two left one after the other. Gao Nianci got into Si Qingyou's car and then told her driver to go back first.
