“Mom?” Haitang was clearly stunned for a moment before she realized that Haiyuan was talking about Shu Mei, her adoptive mother.

Haitang had never had the habit of calling Shu Mei ‘Mama’ and Shu Mei did not allow her to treat herself as a member of the Hai family.

“Hello?” Haitang took the phone nervously and asked softly.

Shu Mei, who was on the other end of the phone, said concisely,” Xiao Yuan’s father and I have returned to the country. We’re at home now. Bring Xiao Yuan over.”

Haitang did not expect Shu Mei to suddenly return to the country. She and Hai

Yuan looked at each other and answered in confusion.” Okay. What’s going on?”

Shu Mei only replied, “The house at home is about to be sold. You should come back and divide the assets.”

After saying that, Shu Mei hung up the phone.

Haitang’s original refusal was only halfway through, “No need..

Hearing the busy tone from the other end of the phone, Haitang immediately fell silent. Her relationship with Shu Mei was very distant and awkward. She had always thought that Shu Mei hated her and treated her as a burden.

But what she didn’t expect was that when Shu Mei wanted to sell the house, she actually thought of her share.

Hai Yuan did not seem to care about this. He shrugged and said,” My mother is such a stingy person. It’s rare for her to be so generous. Sister, she said that she will give you a share of the inheritance. Just take it.”

” Yes.” Gu Yun nodded. He seemed to be deep in thought.” I’ll send you there. I’ll meet her too.”

Ever since he was going to marry Haitang and visited Shu Mei, the two of them had no interactions.

Gu Yun’s impression of Shu Mei was that she was a cold adoptive mother who did not care if Haitang stayed or left. He was very concerned about Haitang’s family relationship, so he wanted to follow her to take a look.

“Alright then.” Haitang nodded sullenly, lowered her head, and began to eat the rice.

After the three of them had a hasty lunch, they rushed to the Hai family.

On the way to the Hai family’s house, Haitang remained silent. She seemed to have a lot on her mind. Her brows were slightly furrowed as she looked out the window absentmindedly.

Hai Yuan, who had always been carefree, was completely immersed in his own world. He did not notice Haitang’s change. Instead, he rubbed his head in frustration and said,” It’s over. My mother is back. I can’t go out with my sister every day, nor can I play games every day. Help!”

“I have to think of a way to make my parents go abroad again! I don’t want to have my homework checked and my palms slapped every day!” Hai Yuan rubbed his hands and said.

Gu Yun glanced at Hai Yuan from the corner of his eyes. It seemed that he was annoyed. He sneered.” It seems that I’m too good to you. In the future, the homework will be doubled, and the punishment will be doubled.”

Hai Yuan’s expression changed, and he immediately fell silent.

When the car arrived at the Hai family’s front gate, Hai Yuan quickly opened the door and jumped out. Haitang sat on the spot, seemingly hesitant. Gu Yun walked around the car and opened the door. He looked at her calmly and extended his hand.” Come down. Haiyuan has already gone in.”

Haitang pursed her lips and looked up at Gu Yun.

Gu Yun saw the uneasiness and panic in her eyes. He held her slightly cold palm tightly and tidied her hair. He said gently,” I will accompany you.

Wherever I am, it will be your home.”

When Haitang heard this, she looked at him again with surprise and gratitude. Then, she composed herself and smiled at Gu Yun with her lips pursed. Her eyes were bright as she replied firmly.” Yes.”

Gu Yun pushed Haitang into the Hai family’s front door. All the decorations and furnishings here were still the same as in her memory. There was no change at all. Hai Yuan’s excited and funny voice came from the house.” Mom! Do you think I have muscles? How big is it?”

When Haitang entered, Shu Mei turned to glance at her. She nodded slightly and said lightly,” You’re back.”

“Yes…” Haitang forced a smile at her.

Shu Mei’s gaze moved down. She saw Haitang sitting in a wheelchair and her leg in a cast.. She frowned and asked,” What happened?”
