Overwhelmed with a mixture of sadness and joy, Jiang's mother fainted. Fortunately, Wan Mei reacted quickly, supporting her and placing her on the sofa. She massaged her for a while and then gave her acupuncture before she woke up.

Her actions terrified Jiang Ruan and her father; no one expected her to faint from excitement at this moment.

"Mom, why are you so weak? Why didn't anyone tell me?"

After Jiang's mother fainted, Jiang Ruan immediately used her healing magic to examine her entire body. When Wan Mei was giving her acupuncture, she suddenly became alert.

Her mother had a blockage in her heart, which was the real reason she fainted.

"Oh, Mom, it's nothing. I'm just too excited. I haven't seen you for so many days, and I was a little anxious and excited. My emotions got the better of me, and my blood and qi supply was insufficient. It's nothing serious. The blockage has been there for a while now, so it's all fine. Don't worry!"

Jiang Ruan felt a pang of sadness at her mother's nonchalant attitude. She knew her mother didn't want to be a burden, but such a serious illness would inevitably worsen without proper treatment, until it was too late to save her.

"What? Auntie isn't like that at all, she..." Wan Mei seemed to be hiding something. She only got halfway through her sentence before Jiang's mother glared at her. She lowered her head, pursed her lips, and stopped talking.

“Mom…” Jiang Ruan wanted to ask her mother again, but her father pulled her aside and whispered to her, “Child, don’t ask. When the time is right, your parents will tell you. Now, bring all those people in. We should all have a proper meal.”

"Don't worry, your mother is fine. I'm her husband, how could I not know?" Jiang's father patted Jiang Ruan's back, then gently touched his son's face, and walked away with a smile.

But as Jiang Ruan looked at her father's back, she felt a strange unease. However, since everyone had told her not to investigate further, it would be going too far if she continued now.

"Okay, we'll do as you say. We'll arrange the meal. It's been so long since we've seen each other, let's have a good meal."

As she spoke, Jiang Ruan waved to Zhang Yang and Jiang Yan, signaling them to go to the kitchen to help Wan Mei with her cooking.

The two happily went over to help, while Duan Yu stood aside staring blankly at the second floor.

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

The second floor has Jiang Yan and Li Ming's room, as well as several empty rooms, which are usually locked from the outside, but were unlocked today.

This means that someone lived in the room!

Thinking of this possibility, Jiang Ruan's eyebrows twitched violently a few times, and she was very dissatisfied with this uninvited behavior and the fact that he hadn't consulted with her.

It's not that the mother can't let people live in, but she needs to get her permission first. This is to prevent inviting trouble into the house and to ensure that such a tragedy never happens again.

"Miss Jiang, your superpower is amazing. I really admire you. I never expected that you could shrink the distance to an inch and pull your own house over in just a few seconds. It's really amazing and ingenious."

Duan Yu's lavish praise surprised Jiang Ruan. Normally, he would only talk to Jiang Yan, stay close by, and be very cautious. What was wrong with him this time?

Unexpectedly, before she could think it through, Duan Yu continued, "I have a favor to ask of you, young lady, but I don't know how to bring it up. I can only ask you quietly when no one is around."

Jiang Ruan had no time to pay attention to what was happening upstairs. She quickly turned around and listened intently to every word Duan Yu said.

"I hope you can provide me with some specific medications." Duan Yu's tone was cautious and reserved, as if he was carefully considering how to express his needs. "I wonder if you have any related knowledge, or if you have any in stock... well, how should I put it, something that can enhance mutual affection."

He put it quite tactfully, as if worried about causing misunderstandings or unnecessary trouble.

However, it seems only Jiang Ruan, Zhang Yang, and Jiang Yan were able to quickly grasp his meaning, while the others were completely bewildered. They couldn't help but wonder what kind of medicine Duan Yu wanted, and why he was mentioning it so cryptically.

"Don't say anything, I have some. I'll get it for you in a bit. Don't worry, there'll be plenty." Jiang Ruan smiled, her facial muscles stiff from exhaustion these past few days. This smile had a different feel to it.

"Ah—" Duan Yu breathed a long sigh of relief; he had finally succeeded.

He was worried that if he and Jiang Yan really got into a relationship, it would hurt him, but now he doesn't have to worry about that anymore.

Seeing him like this, Jiang Ruan suddenly felt comforted for Jiang Yan, and thought of her sister An Xia. She knew that this little incident must have made her ecstatic.

After all, she's a fujoshi (a female fan of male-male romance).

Just then, a commotion came from upstairs. Two of the already somewhat unexpected doors opened, and a couple and a young girl walked out.

"It's actually them?" Jiang Ruan recognized them; they were her awful relatives. She never expected them to show up now. They were lucky to be alive!

"Hmm?" Duan Yu didn't know, but he felt that they were a bit strange. How could someone be so unvigilant at a time like this? The house had been moved, and there was such a commotion, yet they only woke up now.

Jiang Peier, who was upstairs, spotted Jiang Ruan immediately and waved to greet her. When she noticed Duan Yu next to Jiang Ruan, she blushed.

Da da da...

Jiang Peier, the younger sister, is the daughter of Jiang's mother's older sister. She has always liked to snatch things from Jiang Ruan since she was a child. She likes everything that Jiang Ruan likes and loves everything that Jiang Ruan loves.

When Jiang Ruan got married and became pregnant, she took the lead and openly declared that she wanted to be a mistress. Little did she know that she would be framed by Du Ning's mistresses behind the scenes, losing her virginity and suffering a very miserable end.

However, in this life, Du Ning died young, and she divorced him early, so such a thing did not happen again.

Therefore, Jiang Peier, unable to see Jiang Ruan, set her sights on this house. She had tried to take everything that Jiang Ruan owned, but her power was weak and she was no match for it.

Seeing Duan Yu standing next to Jiang Ruan now, he must be up to no good.

"Sister~ Who is this? Please introduce him to me. I haven't seen you in a long time, and I know you just divorced your husband and left with the child. I really feel sorry for you."

Although Jiang Peier was a bad person, her voice was extremely melodious and sweet. However, when she spoke, she used that voice to say some sarcastic and strange things.

"Pei'er, I haven't seen you for so long. Why don't you show more concern for your sister? Why are you concerned about men? You haven't changed at all. You're always like this, forgetting your friends for the sake of a pretty face."

Jiang Ruan naturally wouldn't indulge her, and it wasn't just her who was good at being sarcastic.
