  When Xiamu Qingyan made that offer, her tone was haughty and patronizing. Despite looking pure and innocent, she always gave off a pretentious aura.

  At that moment, Zhuang Susu finally realized that this lady could have reconstructed her face to look like her younger self.

  Zhuang Susu felt that the situation was rather ridiculous. If she had been pursuing riches, she wouldn’t be living such a lifestyle now.

  She had a warm family and loved ones, not to mention her adorable children. That was why she didn’t care about the riches that this lady had offered.

  “Miss, I won’t be able to help you.”


  Xiamu Qingyan had never imagined that this lady would reject her. She continued, “You can quote your own price.”


  Zhuang Susu answered, “Miss, it’s not about the price. I already have my own life, and I don’t want to have anything to do with that man anymore.”


  “You just need to give him a call or meet him. I don’t need you to do anything else.”


  Zhuang Susu chuckled dryly. She realized that, indeed, some people approached the same issue differently.

  Although Xiamu Qingyan had been tempting her with money and power, Zhuang Susu wasn’t enticed at all. Right from the start, she rejected her consistently.

  In the end, Xiamu Qingyan could only threaten Zhuang Susu.

  Facing Xiamu Qingyan’s threats, she contemplated for a long time, until the former instructed her subordinates to take her children away.

  As a mother, Zhuang Susu could only give in. Xiamu Qingyan promised Zhuang Susu that she would return her children after she called Xirong Ziye and made him come back. Once that was done, Xiamu Qingyan wouldn’t look for her ever again.

  Zhuang Susu could only agree to her demands……

  Country X

  In the bamboo garden, Xirong Ziye stayed by Bai Yaoyao’s side silently and watched her from afar. His heart was peaceful yet anxious.

  He thought his sudden appearance might have shocked Bai Yaoyao, so he decided he would give her some time to get used to it. After that, he would show her his sincerity.

  He would treat Bai Yaoyao well and genuinely. He just wanted her to forgive him.

  Bai Yaoyao had no idea that Xirong Ziye was also staying in the same village home. She also didn’t know that Duan Yanhao was looking for her.

  Her phone ran out of battery, so she simply left it in her pocket without taking it out. Hence, she had no clue what was going on.

  Now, she just wanted to calm down and clear her mind in solitude.

  Bai Yaoyao leaned against the bed and wrapped her arms around her legs. Her entire body was engulfed in loneliness.

  In reality, ever since Bai Yaoyao followed Duan Yanhao to the military, she had been feeling less lonely.

  But she was still all alone today. Waiting alone, her heart felt unbearable and cold. She felt that she was just floating around, wondering if she could ever have a secure family. She wanted to feel safe and be wanted by someone, so she wouldn’t feel sad anymore.

  Bai Yaoyao shut her eyes and didn’t dare to imagine at all. She had no idea who could protect her for her whole life. Would she perhaps sacrifice her life for her country during a mission?

  A long time passed, and Bai Yaoyao thought that she had fallen asleep. However, a gust of wind blew, causing her to jolt awake.

  Since she joined the military, she hadn’t been losing sleep. Today was indeed going to be a sleepless night.

  Xirong Ziye guarded by her side silently. After a short while, he received a call, but he dropped it. However, his phone rang again, so in the end, he answered the call resignedly.

  “Hello?”


  For a moment, no sounds could be heard from the other end, but then, he heard a warm and gentle voice, saying, “Ziye, it’s me.”
