Chapter 513 The Lingering Ghost



Upon seeing them, Su Yimo walked straight over, but before she could get close, she was stopped by the bodyguards. "Stop!"

"I'm sorry, I meant no harm." Su Yimo looked at Qiao Wanwan and asked, "Excuse me, do we know each other?"

Qiao Wanwan said calmly, "I don't know him."

"oh......"

"MoMo!" Qiao Shengguo ran over breathlessly. When he saw Zhan Jingting and Qiao Wanwan, his face turned pale. He hurriedly pulled Su Yimo back a few steps. "Why are you running around like this?"

“Dad, I saw them and they looked familiar, so I came over to ask them,” Su Yimo explained.

“You don’t know them, let’s go quickly.” Qiao Shengguo pulled Su Yimo away.

Qiao Wanwan watched their retreating figures, her eyes calm and undisturbed. She quickly regained her composure and looked at the man beside her. "Where were we? What did you want to eat again?"

"All is well."

"Then I've decided, let's go."

"Um."

......

Taking advantage of the weekday being less crowded, Qiao Wanwan accompanied Su Jing to the temple where they had burned incense last time.

Qiao Wanwan handed over a mask, saying, "It smells strongly of smoke inside. Wear this mask, bow once, and come out immediately."

"Okay." Su Jing happily accepted it and, following her instructions, quickly finished bowing and came out.

"Wanwan, I really like this place. If I hadn't come here last time, I wouldn't have met you."

"Some things are destined. If we are destined to meet, we will meet somewhere else, even if not here."

“I understand the logic, but I still feel that I found my daughter here.”

Qiao Wanwan changed the subject, "What did you wish for just now?"

"It's still the same as always. I hope the whole family stays healthy and safe. I hope Jingting's illness gets better soon so you won't have to work so hard."

"Compared to the pain Jingting endured, my suffering is nothing."

"I believe Jingting will get better, because Mom believes your medical skills are the best, and you will definitely be able to cure Jingting."

“Hmm,” Qiao Wanwan suggested, “Since we’re already here, let’s not rush back. The scenery here is nice, let’s take a walk around and have a vegetarian lunch before we go back.”

"That's fine." Su Jing smiled. "I just miss Lao San a little."

Qiao Wanwan chuckled, "We've only been out for two hours, how come you're more attached to the child than I am?"

"I'm not just with him every day, I really can't live without him."

"Relax. Now that you're out here, enjoy the scenery. Staying in Wutong Bay every day would get boring."

“I’m not bored. Wutong Bay is so big, and I have my children with me, so I’m not bored at all.”

"...Alright then."

The two chatted as they walked, enjoying the scenery along the way.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind, "Mom...Mom?"

Su Jing paused, turned around, and saw Su Yimo standing behind her.

Su Jing was taken aback for a moment. "What did you call me?"

Su Yimo seemed embarrassed. "I'm sorry, I know you're not my mother. I have a mother, and she's in the hospital. But for some reason, the moment I saw you, I blurted it out. I don't know why..."

Qiao Wanwan didn't speak, she just looked at her calmly.

Su Jing composed herself and smiled, "You've mistaken me for someone else. I'm not your mother."

Su Yimo quickly apologized, "I'm sorry..."

"It's alright," Su Jing asked. "Miss, did you come here to pray for blessings?"

"Yes, my mother is in a vegetative state and has been in a coma, so I came here to pray that she will wake up soon."

Su Jing nodded. "You are very filial. This place is very effective. I wish your mother a speedy recovery."

Su Yimo nodded. "Thank you."

Su Jing turned to Qiao Wanwan and said, "Wanwan, let's go."

"good."

The two turned and left. Qiao Wanwan asked, "Why did you deny it just now?"

"Does not deny it, or should we admit it?" Su Jing said. "To be honest, I feel sorry for her, after all, she's a child I've raised since she was little. But I can't forgive her for seducing Jing Ting. That day, Jing Ting resisted the temptation of that drink and held back. What if she had actually succeeded? You would have suffered for the rest of your life. I feel scared just thinking about it. So since she has amnesia, let's just live our own lives and not have any contact with each other anymore. It's better for everyone that way."

Qiao Wanwan said, "Actually, I didn't tell you that a couple of days ago, Jingting and I went to the hospital and we ran into Su Yimo. She came over and asked if she knew me."

Su Jing asked curiously, "Wanwan, given her condition, is there any possibility that her amnesia can be cured?"

Qiao Wanwan remained noncommittal, "Who knows?"

"Well, anyway, it has nothing to do with us anymore..."

To Su Jing's surprise, she ran into Su Yimo again at lunchtime.

"Auntie," Su Yimo said as she walked over, "I was rude just now. I'll treat you to dinner as an apology."

Qiao Wanwan said calmly, "Miss, the vegetarian meal costs 15 yuan per person, which we can afford. Besides, vegetarian meals cannot be offered to guests; you have to pay for them yourself."

Su Yimo was a little embarrassed, "Sorry, I didn't know the rules..."

Su Jing smiled to ease the awkwardness, "My daughter is right. When you eat vegetarian food here, you have to pay for it yourself. You can't let others treat you. Don't be shy, just enjoy your meal."

"Um."

Qiao Wanwan and Su Jing got their food and found a place to sit down and eat.

Su Yimo quickly got her food and wanted to sit down next to them, but was stopped by the bodyguard. "What do you want to do!"

Su Yimo looked aggrieved, "I...I didn't mean to do anything..."

Qiao Wanwan said calmly, "Miss, I don't know why you keep trying to get close to us, but I'm not in the mood to deal with you. Please have some self-respect."

Su Yimo bit her lower lip. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bother you. I just felt that this auntie looked very kind, and I couldn't help but want to get closer to her, that's all. Sister, can we be friends?"

"No, and I don't want you near us," Qiao Wanwan said coldly and distantly. "We don't have the habit of getting close to strangers. If you keep bothering us, my bodyguards won't be polite."

Su Yimo was on the verge of tears. "I was being presumptuous. I'm sorry. I'll leave now."

She took her tray and went to sit down at a spot further away to eat.

"Wanwan, don't be angry, eat your food properly," Su Jing reminded her.

"Okay." Qiao Wanwan looked at the two bodyguards beside her. "You two should go get some food too. I heard that eating vegetarian food is good for your health."

"Yes, madam."

After finishing their meal, the two left the temple and went home.

They had only driven a short distance when a car behind them suddenly crashed straight into their vehicle!
