Xu Xingran went to Yang Tai's villa.

The villa area where Yang Tai lives is not the best area in the imperial capital.

His villa is also famous.

It's a big building, and the location is good.

Xu Xingran was seven years old when her parents divorced and she still has memories of it.

She has fond childhood memories in this villa.

Maybe, it's just what she thinks is beautiful.

Now stepping into the villa again, I feel like I am in another world.

Xu Xingran walked to the door and knocked.

The person who opened the door was Yang's nanny.

Aunt Fang.

Aunt Fang opened the iron gate at the entrance of the villa and looked at Xu Xingran with a smile.

"Miss, are you looking for..."

When Aunt Fang saw Xu Xingran's face clearly, she was completely stunned.

Then his face was full of disbelief.

“Ranran?!”

Xu Xingran gave Aunt Fang a bright smile.

"Aunt Fang, it's me."

As far as she can remember, Aunt Fang has been her family's live-in nanny. The meals Aunt Fang cooks are delicious and very much to her liking.

It has been about seventeen years since she left the villa.

Aunt Fang is still here.

Yang Tai is not a nostalgic person, especially since Aunt Fang was the nanny of Xu Xingran's mother.

The reason I was able to keep Aunt Fang for so long is because of her excellent cooking skills.

Aunt Fang's eyes instantly became moist.

"Ranran, where have you been all these years? Why don't you come back to visit?"

Xu Xingran smiled.

"Aunt Fang, this is no longer my home. I came here today to take back my mother's dowry."

Aunt Fang immediately showed an indescribable expression on her face and glanced in the direction of the villa.

"They...will give it to you?"

Aunt Fang certainly knew about Xu Xingran’s mother’s dowry and how priceless it was, and she often saw it on Zhang Yun.

Zhang Yun treasures those jewellery very much.

I didn’t take it away when we divorced, and it’s even more impossible to get it back now.

Xu Xingran nodded: "Yes, Yang Tai asked me to get it."

Aunt Fang's face was full of helplessness.

Xu Xingran didn't want to stand here like a fool.

"Aunt Fang, let me in."

"Oh, okay."

Xu Xingran walked in.

In the villa, Yang Tai and Zhang Yun had already been waiting.

Yang Tai is almost fifty years old this year and has a round belly. He is very different from the gentle and easy-going father in her memory.

And Zhang Yun beside him was really good-looking, with a charming face. Even though she was already in her forties, she looked like a beautiful young woman.

When she saw Xu Xingran coming, she immediately showed her little face.

"Ranran, you're here!"

Xu Xingran nodded to her.

Then he looked at Yang Tai who was sitting on the sofa.

Yang Tai also looked at Xu Xingran. They had been in the imperial capital for these years, but they had very few opportunities to meet.

Only Yang Tai went to the school to find her.

But every time she saw it was him, she turned around and left.

This was the first time in all these years that Yang Tai had set his eyes on Xu Xingran so unscrupulously.

Xu Xingran inherited all of her mother's beauty, even more.

It was also because Xu Xingran was beautiful enough, otherwise, how could she catch He Hansheng's eye?

Xu Xingran said: "I'm here to get something, give it to me!"

Zhang Yun stepped forward and eagerly took Xu Xingran's hand: "Ranran, you haven't been back for so many years. It's not easy for you to come back once. You should have a meal, right? I have asked Aunt Fen to prepare your favorite food. You two can sit down and have a good meal and chat. After all, we are family, and even if our bones are broken, our tendons are still connected!"

Xu Xingran squinted her eyes and looked at Zhang Yun with a smile.

The fact that Yang Tai cheated on his wife shows that he is a scumbag at heart.

And when it comes to cheating, once there is a first time, there will be a second time and there will be countless times.

What's more, Yang Tai is a man with high standards, and the woman he chooses to be his wife must be a top-notch, rich and beautiful woman.

Instead of someone like Zhang Yun who only has beauty.

Zhang Yun can at best be regarded as a mistress kept outside.

But she became Yang Tai's wife.

And over the years, Zhang Yun has been able to maintain her position as Yang Tai's wife, which shows that she is really capable.

At least when it comes to controlling men, she can be considered an expert.

Look at it now, Zhang Yunneng is so polite to Xu Xingran, and even has a look on her face saying “treating her like her own daughter”.

Of course, whether it is sincere or not is a matter of opinion.

Xu Xingran's eyes swept over Zhang Yun.

She wore an emerald Buddha amulet around her neck, a purple jade bracelet on her hand, and a pair of large, sparkling crystal pearls on her ears.

Xu Xingran sneered in his heart.

These are her mother's dowry.

She came here today to get her dowry. Zhang Yun wore so many clothes on herself and they were so conspicuous. No one would believe her if she said it was not a provocation, right?

Xu Xingran smiled at her very brightly, with bright eyes.

He smiled at her and said, "No, I'm not going to eat. I've booked a ticket for 1pm to go to City C to visit Gu Xingmian. It's too late. How about I catch the bus first?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhang Yun's pretty face froze.

Xu Xingran smiled and said, "Don't get excited. You'll have wrinkles on your face and you'll have to get injections and take medicine again."

Zhang Yun's face turned blue and white, and then white and blue.

How exciting.

Xu Xingran just sneered.

When he turned around, he was met with Yang Tai's sinister gaze.

Xu Xingran sneered.

"Why? Do you want me to go see Gu Xingmian?"

Yang Tai looked at her coldly and said gloomily: "Do you think that if you acknowledge Gu Xingmian's life-saving identity, he will marry you?"

Xu Xingran raised an eyebrow.

"He wants to marry me, but I don't want to! However, after I acknowledged my life-saving status, I asked him to promise me that he would not marry Yang Xue. Do you think he would agree? It's not too much to ask him for a life-saving favor, right?"

She didn’t take the fact that Gu Xingmian was her savior seriously, but if she could cause trouble for the Yang family, she would be happy to do so.

She would feel happy if she could make them unhappy.

Xu Xingran was quite happy to see their unhappy faces.

However, Yang Tai and Zhang Yun seemed to be hesitating and had no intention of giving the things to her.

She doesn't indulge them, nor does she waste time with them.

"Will you give me the things? If not, I'll go straight to City C after I leave this door."

Xu Xingran turned around and walked towards the door.

Just as he reached the door, he heard Yang Tai's eerie voice from behind him.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to leave today."

As soon as Yang Tai finished speaking, dozens of bodyguards in black suddenly appeared at the door and blocked it tightly.

Xu Xingran raised an eyebrow and looked back at Yang Tai.

"What do you mean?"

Yang Tai stood up from the sofa in a dignified manner, with a cold look on his face.

"Xiaoxue will take three months to deal with Gu Xingmian. Once Xiaoxue and Gu Xingmian succeed, I will let you out. You will spend the next three months in the basement."

Xu Xingran widened her eyes in surprise, unable to believe what she heard.

"Are you going to imprison me?"
