Half an hour later, the sounds of car brakes screeching could be heard coming from the door. Su Jinshan stood up from the couch agitatedly and sprinted towards the door. As soon as she reached there, a man clad in a black suit entered together with Jiang Ruoyin.

Apart from Jiang Ruoyin’s unkempt hair and tattered clothes, she did not appear to have suffered any major injuries. However, she had a deadpan expression on her pale face and had clearly received a great shock.

Su Jinshan frantically stepped forward and pulled Jiang Ruoyin into her embrace. “Ruoyin, good that you’re alright. You’ve scared me!”

Jiang Ruoyin blinked and looked at her mother. Upon sight of the agitation, joy and worry appeared in her eyes. Jiang Ruoyin seemed to have snapped out of her trance and was suddenly overwhelmed with emotions that had finally found an outlet. She hugged her mother tightly and began bawling at the top of her lungs. “Mother… I… I’m terrified…”

Patting her back continuously in a bid to comfort her, Su Jinshan said, “My poor child. Don’t be afraid. Everything is alright now. I’m here with you. No one will hurt you…”

Jiang Ruoyin wept in agony as if she had been treated unfairly. Teardrops streamed down the aggrieved her face uncontrollably and caused her shirt to be drenched.

Su Jinshan continued to comfort her patiently.

Wen Xinya was rather touched by the sight before her. Mothers were the safe havens of their children. Regardless of how much pain and hardship children have been through, they could always seek refuge and emotional peace in the comfort and warmth of their mother’s embrace.

Tears welled up in Wen Xinya’s eyes and she began to feel a little envious.

Jiang Ruoyin stopped crying and sat down on the couch with the guidance of Su Jinshan. Xia Ruya quickly placed some pillows behind her back. Su Jinshan then stood up to pour Jiang Ruoyin a glass of water while Xia Ruxue grabbed some tissue for her to wipe her tears.

Xia Ruya frantically said, “Aunt Jiang, Ruoyin may not be injured, but she’s definitely traumatized. We’d better take her to the hospital for a checkup!”

“You’re such a thoughtful child. I actually forgot about that,” said Su Jinshan, who was heartened to see that Xia Ruya was extremely concerned about Su Jinshan. Comparing her to the overbearing and tyrannical Wen Xinya, Su Jinshan could not help but feel repulsed by Wen Xinya. In fact, she had taken a liking to Xia Ruya.

Xia Ruya lowered her head in embarrassment and said, “I’m just worried about Ruoyin.”

Jiang Yuqian and Xia Ruxue frantically expressed their intentions to head to the hospital together with Jiang Ruoyin.

After coming to a consensus, they helped Jiang Ruoyin up in a bid to leave.

Gu Yuehan raised his voice and said, “Madam Jiang, please don’t forget the pact we made earlier on. Do I have to remind you, Madam Jiang?”

Su Jinshan froze in shock. How could she have possibly forgotten? She was deliberately planning to use the visit to the hospital as an excuse to distract Gu Yuehan, in hopes that he’d forget about it. Yet, he actually remembered it. After all, she had already made a promise and would only be embarrassing herself if she were to go back on her word. Besides, she had no idea how capable Gu Yuehan was exactly, though she had an ominous feeling.
