Two days later, at Beijing Capital International Airport.
Gu Yanxin was looking around for Gu Wanqing when a man's voice came from behind her, "Hello, are you Miss Gu Yanxin?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yanxin turned around. "Who are you?"
“I’m your aunt’s driver. She told me to come pick you up.”
"Why didn't Auntie come? Is something wrong?" Gu Yanxin asked sweetly.
The man frowned. "Your wife is already waiting for you at home."
"Okay, let's go." Gu Yanxin handed him the suitcase and walked ahead on her own.
...
Half an hour later, the car drove into Blue Bay Mansion, one of the famous luxury residential areas in the capital.
Looking at the house in front of her, which was even more luxurious than the Gu family home, Gu Yanxin couldn't help but feel excited. She would be living here from now on.
"Miss Gu, please come in." The man pushed her suitcase over.
Gu Yanxin walked in with her head held high and her chest puffed out. She saw a woman sitting on the leather sofa in the living room, wearing a black Chanel-style jacket, with her hair tied up and a delicate face.
She stepped forward and asked hesitantly, "Auntie...?"
The woman, who had been drinking coffee with her head down, slowly raised her head and looked at her with a calm expression. "I've heard about your situation from your father. You should go to No. 1 Middle School to register tomorrow."
Looking at the powerful woman in front of her, Gu Yanxin was unsure of her attitude, so she nodded obediently: "Okay, Auntie."
"Yes, your room is the one at the very back on the second floor." Gu Wanqing stood up unhurriedly, took the bag handed to her by the maid, and turned to instruct, "Take Miss upstairs."
The maid bowed her head respectfully and said, "Yes, Madam."
Gu Yanxin asked softly, "Auntie, are you going out?"
Gu Wanqing gave a faint "hmm" and left without looking back.
Gu Yanxin bit her lip tightly, feeling that Gu Wanqing's actions and mannerisms were too similar to Shi Miao's, and even the way she looked at her was so similar.

Here, Shi Miao and Ji Yanchen arrived at the Ji family's old residence.
Ji Qingyuan was lying in a rocking chair with his eyes closed, basking in the sun. Hearing footsteps, he opened his eyes and glanced at Ji Yanchen. "Hmph, the busy man finally has time to come back and see me?"
Then, looking at Shi Miao beside her, she said with a smile, "Miao Miao, you're here too."
Ji Yanchen raised an eyebrow and said, "Tsk, I brought Miaomiao here for you to see."
"Hmm, let me take your pulse first." Shi Miao stepped forward and placed her fair, jade-like fingers on the old man's wrist.
Ji Yanchen asked in a low voice, "How is it?"
"That's good." Shi Miao withdrew her hand, looked up at Ji Qingyuan and asked, "Have you finished the little pills I gave you?"
Ji Qingyuan exclaimed in amazement, "I've almost finished eating it. This pill is really amazing. I feel like my headache is gone, my chest is no longer tight, and I feel incredibly energetic."
"Yes, it's good for your health, with no side effects. You can just eat it like candy after drinking the Chinese medicine." As she spoke, Shi Miao took the schoolbag from Ji Yanchen and took out two small glass bottles, handing them to Ji Qingyuan.
Ji Qingyuan looked at the full bottle in his hand and said in a deep voice, "This is too valuable. I know that one of these pills can fetch five million on the black market."
"Okay, I'll send you some more after you finish eating," Shi Miao said casually.
A faint smile played in Ji Yanchen's eyes, his thin lips curled up, and his tone was lazy and soothing: "Take it, consider it a gift for your daughter-in-law."
The old man's eyes lit up when he heard this; he hadn't expected the old iron tree to actually bloom.
"Alright, alright, Miaomiao, if Yan Chen ever bullies you in any way, just tell me and I'll stand up for you."
Shi Miao coughed and touched his nose sheepishly, "Okay."
Then, Ji Qingyuan seemed to think of something, glanced at him with a hint of disdain, and muttered, "Isn't this like an old cow eating young grass?"
Ji Yanchen: "..."
