In this completely unfamiliar country, Mizuki met someone who recognized her, and a pleading look appeared in her clear eyes.

He didn't push Shen Jiarui away because he didn't like being close to strangers, and nodded to acknowledge his identity.

Shen Jiarui stood up, hands on his hips, increasingly incredulous: "Hey, it really is you. How did you end up all the way from the US?"

This little guy is usually accompanied by bodyguards and drivers when he goes out.

How come you've become so disheveled after just a few days?

Afraid that he would abandon her and leave, Ruixi seized the opportunity to reach out and hug his leg: "Uncle, please take me home."

Shen Jiarui looked down at the "leg accessory" on the long legs, which was all dirty and smelly.

His neatly ironed trousers were completely ruined. How could he possibly wear them to a business dinner? He would only embarrass the Shen Group.

I simply picked the child up and asked, "Did you bump into anything? Do you need to go to the hospital?"

Mizuki shook her head frantically.

He doesn't want to go back to the hospital or back to his biological father.

Shen Jiarui carried Ruixi back to the car and took the little one back to the Shen family's old house.

He's too busy with work to take care of the child, but there are many people at the old house who can help look after him.

Logically speaking, since this child appeared alone in Yunzhou, someone must have brought him back, and his family should be looking for him.

If no one comes to pick him up, we'll take him back to M country next time he's off work.

——

The Shen family's old residence.

Standing in front of Shen's parents, Ruixi looked like a doll being watched.

"My son, when were you born? You've prepared such a big surprise for us!" Mother Shen looked at the child, overjoyed.

"You don't even have a girlfriend? But you already have an illegitimate child?" Mr. Shen joined in the teasing with Mrs. Shen.

"What are you talking about? He's not my son, I picked him up on the street."

Shen Jiarui couldn't explain it to his parents either.

Since the child is going to be sent back anyway, he doesn't need to say too much.

"Oh, where can we find such a beautiful child? Let's go find one too," Mother Shen said with a smile.

Mizuki felt increasingly awkward around the happy family, her little hands clenched tightly.

"Grandson, what's your name?" Father Shen squatted down and asked him.

Ruixi's Chinese wasn't very good, and she didn't understand what "eldest grandson" meant, but she nodded with a forced smile: "My name is Ruixi."

"Please help look after him. I'm going to take a shower and change my clothes. Please prepare some clothes for this child, and run some bathwater to give him a good bath. He's too dirty."

Seeing that Shen Jiarui was about to leave, Ruixi quickly tugged at his sleeve: "Uncle, when can you take me home?"

"No rush. When your uncle has time, I'll take you to the US in a couple of days."

"Oh. Okay." Mizuki didn't make any further demands.

He knew that the United States was very, very far away from here, and that he had flown for more than ten hours to get here.

Going back isn't that easy.

Mr. and Mrs. Shen were worried because Shen Jiarui and Shen Jinmo hadn't gotten married or had children in the past few years, and the entire Shen family was quiet and deserted.

The old folks are so happy to have a baby, they're going to take good care of him.

Su Ziheng was like an ant on a hot pan, unable to find his son.

The son I finally got has run away again.

What kind of situation is this?

He dared not send a large number of people to search for Ruixi's whereabouts, for fear that the commotion would be too great and reach the United States.

If that unpredictable, ruthless tyrant Luo Xiu knew about this, he would wipe out the Su family.

With nowhere else to turn, Su Ziheng had no choice but to call Lu Zhiwei.

This was the first time he had contacted her in four years.

Surprisingly, the call actually went through.

"Mr. Lu, I'm sorry to bother you so suddenly, but there's something I'd like to ask you for help with." Su Ziheng was in a hurry and didn't have time to beat around the bush.

"Ruixi is back by your side, right?" Lu Zhiwei asked him as soon as she spoke, confirming this fact.

"I did go back, but..."

"But what?"

“He ran away again.” Su Ziheng didn’t dare to tell Lu Zhiwei that he had taken the child to see his biological mother, Song Anran, for fear of angering Lu Zhiwei and causing her to stop helping him find the child. “Maybe the child is shy and doesn’t like me, his biological father.”

Where are you now?

"Back to Yunzhou."

"You couldn't even protect a child in Yunzhou, what can I say to you?" Lu Zhiwei was speechless.

"Okay, I'll come back and help you look for it."

Lu Zhiwei hung up the phone.

It's been four years; she's been away from Yunzhou for four years.

It's time to go back and take a look; now is a perfect opportunity.

When Lu Zhiwei appeared at the entrance of the Luo family manor.

Luo Xiu saw that beautiful figure on the monitor on the computer in the study, and he immediately got up and went downstairs to greet her.

As he walked to the front gate, he watched Lu Zhiwei gracefully approaching him.

Luo Xiu smiled indulgently: "You're back?"

He knew she would come back.

"Where is my son?" Lu Zhiwei asked him.

"Taking a nap in my room."

Lu Zhiwei walked straight inside, and Luo Xiu followed her like a lapdog, all the way upstairs.

Lu Zhiwei arrived at her son's room and was about to open the door to go in.

Seeing Luo Xiu who followed them in, he asked, "Don't you have to go to work?"

"I can't concentrate on work until I've appeased you. Are you still angry with me?" Luo Xiu asked cautiously.

He doesn't need to do that with anyone.

Only towards Lu Zhiwei.
