Zhang Laidi could tell that something must have happened to Su Xiangnan, because they had been calling him frequently these past few days.

She didn't stand on ceremony with Meng Shuyun and readily accepted the money, saying, "Auntie, it's no trouble at all. I've taken the money, so please feel free to use me. If there's a phone call, I'll have my grandson come to your house to call someone right away."

Meng Shuyun went to Yu Xiaoqiu's house again and asked her to help take care of Mingyue and Minghui.

At two o'clock the next morning, she finally received a call from Su Xiangnan. His exhaustion and weariness were palpable in his voice: "Mom, you called for me? I've been very busy lately."

Meng Shuyun held the receiver, listening to Su Xiangnan's voice on the other end of the phone, her heart pounding with anxiety.

She didn't know what had happened to her son, so she couldn't bring herself to tell him that Gu Xue had been found by Zhou Xianye and was on her way back.

“Yes, you haven’t called home in a long time. Your four siblings, one nephew, and four nieces are all eagerly waiting for you. They miss you terribly.” Meng Shuyun tried to make her tone sound as light as possible.

On the other end of the phone, Su Xiangnan's voice visibly faltered, sounding very stiff. After a brief pause, he quickly regained his composure.

He knew in his heart that there were only four children in the family, plus a nephew.

Before Gu Xue regained her memory, she still called Meng Shuyun "Grandma," so Gu Xue went back!

Su Xiangnan took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, but his voice still trembled slightly: "Mother, how are my four nieces? Have they been misbehaving? Once I've settled things here, I'll bring them gifts to visit them."
