Quan Yin answered the phone with her mobile.

And it was Quan Jin calling.

After hanging up, Quan Yin told her, "Jin just called. I saw there was no remark, and thought it might be an important call that reached my private phone, so I answered it. I just didn’t expect it to be Jin, and then I realized it was your phone."

"It’s okay."

Gu Yuan kept a calm face, but was surprised inside.

Did Quan Jin know the number of this phone?

Did he really remember something?

Even though she deliberately avoided meeting him today, could it be that Chi Yu’s memory still had gaps...

"Miss Gu?"

Quan Yin saw Gu Yuan was quite lost in thought and called out to her.

Seeing no response from Gu Yuan, he waved his hand in front of her: "Miss Gu?"

Gu Yuan snapped back to reality, looking at Quan Yin: "What’s up?"

Quan Yin chuckled: "What was Miss Gu thinking about so deeply?"

She definitely couldn’t tell him what she was thinking.

Gu Yuan replied, "Thinking about Suisui. I left home early today and I’m not sure if Suisui is clamoring to find me."

"The old house is unfamiliar to Suisui; it’s understandable she might be shy. Suisui mostly just looks for you. If Miss Gu is really worried, I can go back to the old house with you."

Gu Yuan politely declined Quan Yin’s offer: "I’ll go back by myself. Mr. Quan probably has things to do, no need to trouble you with this trip."

Quan Yin said, "It’s no trouble."

Gu Yuan closed her mouth, lowered her eyes, and said nothing.

Some things shouldn’t be thought of in that way, but Gu Yuan was a mature woman, not an innocent eighteen-year-old girl.

Today’s talk with the investor went very well, both were interested in collaborating and got closer, thanks to Quan Yin’s introduction she had this opportunity.

In the end, Gu Yuan didn’t go back to the old house. After making a call to Old Madam Quan, she booked a flight back to Sui City.

Leaving Suisui in Yanjing was her initial intention, and it was also something Old Madam Quan very much hoped for. She always greatly respected Old Madam Quan, because Old Madam Quan had always been kind and respectful to her too.

Whether it’s love or family, both are reciprocal.

...

Quan Jin took Suisui to his personal residence.

He bought a bunch of snacks and toys, which worked wonders.

Suisui didn’t seem too shy in the new place, mainly because there weren’t too many people.

Last night she was scared by too many people, but here there’s not as many people, and there are snacks and toys, making her very happy.

Quan Jin played with her at first, thinking it would be boring, but as he played, he got more interested, finding it increasingly fun.

The phone rang.

He patted Suisui’s head, stood up, and went to the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room to answer the call: "Hello, Grandma."

Yu Rujin’s voice came through: "Yuanyuan has returned to Sui City, is little Suisui with you?"

"Yes, she’s here playing and hasn’t made any fuss or noise. Don’t worry, I can take care of my own daughter," Quan Jin naturally ignored the first part of Yu Rujin’s words.

Yu Rujin responded a few times, but still mentioned, "Yuanyuan went back to Sui City because of something at the company. She’s always been busy and has no one around to care for her..."

Quan Jin: "Doesn’t she have Uncle Wu?"

Yu Rujin: "..."

A silence lasted ten seconds.

Then Yu Rujin spoke again, very earnestly: "Yuanyuan’s sudden return to Sui City makes me uneasy, but I’ve figured it out. If you must divorce, Grandma won’t interfere. You should have a good talk with her, part amicably."

"Really?" It would be a lie to say he wasn’t surprised, Quan Jin was half-believing.

Yu Rujin sighed, feeling helpless with this unfilial grandson.

How can they be together like this?

Her Fifth Uncle, on the other hand, was quite proactive.

"I mean what I say, don’t worry, I won’t deceive you," Yu Rujin earnestly added, "Anyway, it’s your life. Grandma is too old to interfere much. How you walk this path is up to you. I just hope you won’t regret it."

Quan Jin responded: "I understand, Grandma."

"Okay, bye now."

Then the call was disconnected from the other side.

The phone screen dimmed, and Quan Jin stared at it for a long time.

That woman left with Uncle Wu!

Has she given up on their daughter?

It seems, he’s determined to win this custody.

He pressed the Home button, found Lawyer Fang’s number, and dialed.

Half an hour later.

Lawyer Fang arrived at Quan Jin’s residence. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Upon arriving, the first thing Lawyer Fang said was: "I just got back to Yanjing recently, your call caught me off guard. Luckily, you asked me to meet you here, the Quan Family’s threshold isn’t a place ordinary people like me can cross."
