Seeing that Meng Fuyan was alright, Gu Tingzhi breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing his nervous look, Meng Fuyan smiled and said, "This isn't a dangerous place, what are you afraid of? I just sent you a message two hours ago!"
Gu Tingzhi said helplessly, "You only sent a signal to tell me you were here. I haven't seen you in person, so how could I not be worried? Is Auntie alright?"
Meng Fuyan looked back at the door, her expression not good. "She was seriously injured back then, and the aftereffects are still severe. If I hadn't come, and she had been trapped by the Su family without receiving effective treatment, she probably wouldn't have survived more than a few years."
Gu Tingzhi comforted her, "Don't worry, we'll take her back and give her proper care. We'll hire the best doctors in the world, and she'll definitely be cured."
No wonder Meng Suqin never appeared in my previous life; she must have died early.
Meng Fuyan smiled slightly, "Fortunately, it's not too late. I have a Chinese medicine prescription on hand. After my mother takes care of herself for a while, it should be effective."
"Besides, Mom was worried about me and my brother, and we had to deal with these bad people. We were all isolated and helpless, and that's how we got to this point. Now that we don't have to worry about the children, and I can take care of them, things will be much better."
Gu Tingzhi was somewhat shocked, "You can cure her?"
Meng Fuyan nodded, "It should be possible."
He was a little incredulous. "When did your medical skills become so good?"
Meng Fuyan shrugged, her large, innocent eyes wide. "I only know a little bit, as you know. I just happen to know some remedies that work for Mom. Traditional Chinese medicine is just that amazing!"
Gu Tingzhi felt something was off, but he didn't pursue it further. Traditional Chinese medicine can be quite amazing sometimes. Perhaps she really just had this prescription?
"Let's go back first, there's no point in staying at the Su family's place."
Meng Fuyan nodded. "I'll pack my things. Wait a moment."
There weren't many household items in the house. Meng Fuyan only took her mother's usual things, and there were only a few sets of clothes, so it was easy to pack.
"Mom, wake up, I'll take you away from here."
Meng Suqin was asleep when she was suddenly woken up. She was startled and asked, "What's wrong?"
Meng Fuyan smiled and said, "Let's go home. Although the Su family wouldn't dare to do anything to us, it's still not as comfortable as our own place. Let's leave here first."
Meng Suqin didn't want to stay here any longer, as she had no freedom at all. Upon hearing this, she immediately got up and wanted to leave with her daughter.
The mother and daughter quickly tidied up and got it done.
Meng Fuyan said to Gu Tingzhi, "I gave my earrings to Madam Su. She's obsessed with this set of jewelry. They should be in her bedroom right now. Go and get the earrings back, and while you're at it, put a knife on her bedside table. It has to be bloody."
Gu Tingzhi: "..."
This little girl has quite a temper.
"Okay, I'll go right away."
The Su family home is only so big, so Gu Tingzhi can come and go as he pleases.
Less than ten minutes later, the person returned and handed the earring to Meng Fuyan, saying, "Here you go!"
Meng Fuyan smiled and took it, "Was there a bloodstained knife inside?"
"Put it down, just on her bedside table."
Meng Fuyan was satisfied and helped Meng Suqin up, "Mom, let's go!"
Meng Suqin wasn't in good physical condition, so Gu Tingzhi carried her on his back, while Meng Fuyan carried her own suitcase. The three of them quickly left the Su family from the backyard, quietly making their way without disturbing anyone.
Outside, the car was already waiting. The group got in and quickly drove away.
Inside the car, Meng Suqin was not in a good mood, but she could tell that her daughter had a close relationship with this young man. She sat in the back and kept observing.
Meng Fuyan noticed. "Mom, are you curious?"
Meng Suqin glared at her. How could she not be curious?
Just as Meng Fuyan was about to speak, Gu Tingzhi spoke up, "Mom, my name is Gu Tingzhi, and I'm Yanyan's boyfriend. But my public name is Fu Jinnian. Just make sure you don't call me by the wrong name when other people are around."
The moment that word "Mom" came out, not only Meng Suqin but even Meng Fuyan was stunned.
"What...what did you call me?"
Gu Tingzhi, ever the familiar type, said, "Mom! You're Yanyan's mother, so naturally you're my mom too. My mother passed away a long time ago, and I've been alone all these years. Back in China, I often heard Yanyan talk about how good her mother was to her. I was so envious back then, and I always thought that if I married Yanyan, I would have a mother like that too. Now my dream has finally come true, and I'm so happy!"
Meng Fuyan: "..."
Meng Suqin: "..."
Meng Suqin is a businesswoman. She learned to communicate with people from a young age. What kind of situation hasn't she seen?
She'd seen plenty of people like Gu Tingzhi who were naturally outgoing, but this guy didn't seem like the kind of nonchalant, so-called outgoing person she knew. He was probably pursuing her daughter.
It's good to be cheerful; if a man is a taciturn person, there's really no fun in it.
"Really? My mother is very frail and sickly. Aren't you worried about having to support a mother-in-law with poor health in the future?"
"If you're willing to let me support you, I'd be more than happy. So many people are after Yanyan, but she only has eyes for me. I'm overjoyed!"
Meng Suqin glanced at her daughter. "You two met in Northeast China? This must be the person you mentioned who helped you a lot!"
Meng Fuyan nodded, "Yes, that's why we started dating after spending so much time together."
Meng Suqin patted her hand, "You're eighteen now, it's good to date. As long as you have good taste, Mom will support you."
Meng Fuyan leaned on her mother's shoulder with a happy smile, "I knew Mom was the best to me."
"Mom, are you sleepy? You were sleeping so soundly and I woke you up. We'll have plenty of time in the future, so you can sleep a little longer. I'll wake you up when we get home."
Waking up in the middle of the night, Meng Suqin was indeed not in much spirits. She nodded and went back to sleep.
Gu Tingzhi was relieved by Meng Suqin's attitude. It seemed that his mother-in-law had a good impression of him, or at least supported her daughter's relationship.
Just support him. As long as he performs well in the future and does better than all his suitors, his mother-in-law will definitely like him.
Meng Suqin was asleep. Meng Fuyan glanced at the person in the front passenger seat and said, "With such a glib tongue, aren't you afraid that my mother won't have a good first impression of you?"
Gu Tingzhi disagreed, "Where am I being glib? This is called sincerity, okay? Your mother is my mother, isn't she? Besides, it's always good to be a little sweet-talking. Your mother isn't a stubborn person. She might not be used to it at first, but if I call her a few more times, she'll get used to it."
Meng Fuyan: "..."
You have such a thick skin!
Gu Tingzhi is in high spirits now. He left the mainland with the girl he likes, and no one outside can interfere with them. They can date freely. His future mother-in-law has also been found. Yanyan is in a good mood, and their future life should be comfortable.
