Han Hongmei was trembling. Her son's disappearance was a devastating blow to her.

"I'll try to find out." Qin Yi comforted Su Chengde and his wife, telling them not to worry, and that he would find someone to help.

Qin Yi quickly contacted someone and explained Su Shikun's situation; the person on the other end of the phone readily agreed.

Han Hongmei harbored resentment towards Su Wan. Everything was fine until she went to the hospital, and then her son disappeared.

She felt like she was going crazy with a headache.

She cried as she said, "Where could he go? He didn't have any money on him, and his injuries haven't healed yet. What if something happens to him... Waaah!"

Su Wan didn't try to persuade her; she just sat there calmly.

Grandma Qin understood Su Wan's decision not to persuade her, and gently advised Han Hongmei from the side: "Don't worry, maybe the child just went out for a walk and will be back in a little while."

Han Hongmei knew that Su Wan wouldn't do anything to Su Shikun, but she was still angry.

This daughter is too prickly.

Su Chengde watched Qin Yi methodically find connections and ask for help, and he was very satisfied with this capable son-in-law.

He also agreed with Qin Yi's analysis, thinking that Su Shikun just wanted to go out and calm down.

He might be back tomorrow.

He comforted Han Hongmei, "Don't worry too much. Xiao Kun just wants to clear his head. He'll come back once he's figured things out."

He persuaded Han Hongmei to go home with him and wait, and Qin Yi and Su Wan saw the two of them out the door.

Su Chengde took the weeping Han Hongmei back home.

Qin Yi and Su Wan exchanged a glance, then held hands and went home. Qin Yi was changing his clothes.

Su Wan frowned as she looked at Qin Yi, who was tidying his clothes: "Do you really think so?"

Qin Yi nodded, straightened his buttons, and came over to help Su Wan button up the undone button on her collar.

Su Wan glanced at him, thinking, "What a petty person."

It's as if she'll cheat on me if I don't keep an eye on her.

Qin Yi seemed to read her mind: "I have to keep a close eye on my wife."

He then habitually reached for a cigarette, and just as he was about to light it, he glanced at Su Wan subconsciously, then put it away with a sly grin.

Su Wan was exasperated by his unpredictable attitude.

Su Wan sometimes wanted to ask him why he was so serious one moment and so roguish the next.

And the transformation is so rapid, comparable to a child changing their face; how is it possible to do it so naturally and effortlessly?

Su Wan nudged him, her words carrying a hint of ambiguous meaning: "Why don't you say it!"

This behavior is exactly how a young girl acts coquettishly towards someone she likes.

Qin Yi couldn't suppress a smile. He placed his hands on Su Wan's shoulders, kissed her forehead, and carefully analyzed the situation for her.

"This is just my guess based on his situation, but it's hard to say what might happen if he encounters something else along the way."

Su Wan nodded. Indeed, it's hard to say.

Su Shikun was used to a life of luxury. Su Qing died, and he didn't get to see her one last time. It was something a rich young master like him would do to clear his mind.

It's good to go out and experience some hardship.

Qin Yi, still worried, reminded Su Wan, "Be careful on the road, pack up your stall early, I'll come pick you up as soon as I'm done."

Su Wan obediently agreed, and the two went to work separately.

When Su Wan arrived at the market, everyone was setting up their stalls, and Su Wan also organized her items one by one.

Su Wan is pretty and has a sweet tongue. She calls everyone she meets "auntie" or "sister," making the customers very happy.

"Sister, you have excellent taste! This is our best-selling item. The fabric is so comfortable..."

By the end of the day, Su Wan had run out of stock on two different patterns, so she rushed to the market in Leng Qingshan after closing her shop.

Leng's mother hasn't been feeling well these past two days, so Leng Qingshan and Li Mei are watching the stall.

At this moment, Leng Qingshan was sitting in a daze, while Li Mei kept trying to start a conversation.

Leng Qingshan was neither warm nor cold, and Li Mei was met with indifference several times, so she complained softly with some reluctance.

"Hmph, you may like her, but she may not like you."

Li Mei felt that Su Wan's appearance was a perfect match for Leng Qingshan.

She didn't want to admit that she was jealous.

Su Wan was so beautiful that even a woman like her couldn't help but want to take a second look, let alone Leng Qingshan.

Li Mei, who was full of resentment towards Su Wan, saw Su Wan coming over, slammed the things in her hand onto the stall, and turned away from her.

Su Wan didn't mind and called out to Leng Qingshan with a smile, "Qingshan!"

Leng Qingshan looked up and saw Su Wan, then hurriedly stood up: "Su Wan, you, what brings you here?"

At this moment, Leng Qingshan was all smiles, a stark contrast to his dejected appearance just moments before.

Su Wan's arrival seemed to inject vitality into his listless day.

Su Wan pointed to two different patterns of fabric: "Could you send me some more of these tomorrow when you have time?"

Leng Qing looked at Su Wan in surprise: "It's... sold out?"

Su Wan nodded, "Yes, they're sold out."

Leng Qingshan was surprised that Su Wan's business was so fast. He had expected that Su Wan's new stall would go through a period of no business after it had just opened.

I didn't expect it to sell out so quickly.

Leng Qingshan smiled happily: "Okay, I'll send it to you first thing tomorrow morning."

With the goods settled, Su Wan glanced at Li Mei, who was sitting alone and sulking, then said goodbye to Leng Qingshan and turned to leave.

Leng Qingshan looked at the departing person with some disappointment, and hurriedly chased after her, calling out, "Su Wan."

Su Wan stopped and looked at Leng Qingshan with some confusion.

Leng Qingshan paused for a moment before carefully speaking, "Um, I've heard about what happened to your sister. Please accept my condolences."

So that's what Leng Qingshan was after.

Su Wan glanced at Leng Qingshan and asked with some surprise, "How did you know?"
