Yao Anna was still somewhat worried about Song Mengmeng.

She had previously studied the Song family in detail. The current richest man in Hong Kong, it's said, has some businesses involved in the gray areas.

It's not something ordinary people like them can handle.

"It's alright. If anything goes wrong, I'll definitely take you with me!" Song Mengmeng smiled and held Yao Anna's hand, comforting her, "Don't worry, I've already informed Emperor Yan. He knows we're going to Hong Kong. Just think of it as a trip to relax and don't overthink it!"

After Yao Anna and Song Mengmeng went to the rest room, Song Qirui stared for a while before asking his assistant, who came out from the inner room, "How is it? Is it still safe inside?!"

"Fortunately, the two young ladies have already gone to bed to rest."

"You don't need to worry so much. After all, Miss is your own daughter; she will surely understand your difficulties."

The assistant stood respectfully beside him, bowing his head to answer Song Qirui's questions.

Even if she had some reservations, the assistant wouldn't actually say anything or speak up for Yao Anna at this moment.

Just as Yao Anna and Song Mengmeng directly revealed before, the boss in front of him has been married for many years. Even if there is no longer any affection between them, it is a fact that he already has three sons.

Those three have already joined the Song family's company and are doing exceptionally well. Even if we find their only daughter now, what difference will it make?!

It's impossible to pass on such a huge family business to a young girl who has just returned to the family!

Besides, the gentleman in front of me brought this little girl back for the purpose of...

The assistant sighed silently and didn't say anything more, but a hint of pity still flashed in his eyes.

"Yes, that child is stubborn, just like her mother!"

"If her mother had been a little more understanding and tolerant back then, things wouldn't have come to this..." Song Qirui wearily rubbed his temples, paused for a moment, then looked up at his assistant: "Has the phone run over there?!"

"They just called and said they're heading to Hong Kong now. They want us to take Miss to our usual meeting place in Hong Kong to meet them," the assistant reported in a low voice. This was one of the things he had rushed over to report.

"Okay, I understand!"

"Don't inform Wenhui and Wenyao yet. We'll talk to them when we get back to the port city!"

Song Qirui sighed, a barely perceptible struggle flashing across his face: "No matter how you look at it, it's me who lost money for them, mother and daughter!"

Once everything calms down, I think it's time to step down!

Wenhui and his colleagues have been handling things very well at the company these past two years. I thought coming over to keep them company would put my mind at ease.

The assistant didn't reply, but couldn't help feeling a bit of disdain.

They utter the most affectionate words, but in reality, they are plotting all sorts of shady dealings!

However, the person in front of him was his boss; he was just a worker who knew a little more!

Song Mengmeng looked at Yao Anna, who had fallen asleep next to her, and remained silent for a while before taking out the small bronze cauldron that Yao Anna had specifically asked her to give her after she sent Aman back.

Aman's village is skilled in using Gu poison.

However, not everyone is qualified to cultivate and become a sorcerer.

According to Aman, there are actually very few sorcerers left in the entire country now.

She possessed those eighty-one bronze cauldrons, which, in addition to recording the search for Chi You's corpse, also contained many of the mysterious spells of Chi You's tribe!

And these are precisely the things that those sorcerers desperately want to obtain!

Song Mengmeng had been paying attention to these things, and since she had nothing else to do, she simply took out the bronze cauldron.

The rustling sounds inside were quite obvious.

She had just controlled a group of insects to burrow inside a few days ago, and the battle inside was still ongoing. She didn't know what kind of thing would be refined out of it in the end.

Fortunately, there's no rush.

Song Mengmeng covered her mouth and yawned, then continued to hold the cauldron to her ear, listening with great curiosity to the sounds inside, just like a child who had just received a new toy.

"Mengmeng, what are you looking at?!" Yao Anna opened her eyes after lying down for a while and saw Song Mengmeng with her head down, looking intently at the small cauldron that was the size of her palm in her hands.

Looking at her small face, she almost seemed like she wanted to crawl into that cauldron.

"It's nothing." Song Mengmeng looked up, smiled at Yao Anna, and then tucked the small cauldron into her sleeve. She was wearing a loose-fitting coat today, so even with the cauldron inside, it wasn't very noticeable from the outside.

“I think I’ll go see Mom after this is all over.” Yao Anna sat up, leaning against the side with a somewhat vacant look in her eyes. “Mengmeng, do you think there’s any way to help my mom forget the past forever and happily continue her new life?!”

She has suffered too much in her life, and I don't want her to continue to wallow in bitterness!

If I could, I really want her to have the chance to start a new life! Even if the future might not be long, it's precisely because of this, because every day that passes is one less day, that I think, maybe, just maybe, I can help my mother forget everything from the past.

“It’s not impossible.” Hearing Yao Anna’s somewhat dejected words, Song Mengmeng took it to heart. After thinking for a moment, she said with certainty, “Forgetting the past is indeed feasible.”

But you were part of that past too!

Are you really willing to let your mother forget you too?!

"Yes." After only a slight hesitation, Yao Anna gave her answer and decision quite decisively: "My birth brought endless pain to my mother."

If she ever remembers those past events in the future, my existence will be a thorn, a thorn stuck in her heart.

I want her to live the rest of her life happily. As long as she's happy, even if I can only catch a glimpse of her from afar, I'll feel incredibly content!

However, it's too early to say all that now!

I have a feeling that the man outside won't let my mother off so easily!

The thought of Song Qirui still waiting outside made Yao Anna feel terrible. She buried her head in her bent knees in frustration, and after a long while, she cursed angrily before falling silent.

Song Mengmeng, with her sharp ears, heard Yao Anna's curse very softly—

Son of a bitch.
