Chapter 184
Sui Yan had never felt so speechless before. She huffily grabbed her suitcase and stormed off, while Qi Linhan held back his laughter and quickly strode after her.
After a few steps, their formation became... Sui Yan strolling in front, leisurely playing with her phone, Ti Zi contentedly walking beside her, while Qi Linhan trailed behind, pulling two suitcases.
Concerned like a father caring for his daughter, Qi Linhan said, "Yan, don't play with your phone while walking."
Sui Yan, always the quickest to agree, replied, "Okay, I'll stop right away."
Qi Linhan understood her well; this girl couldn't be controlled, yet couldn't be left alone either. He truly had no idea what to do with her.
Fortunately, this time Sui Yan really did put her phone away after a moment. She lifted her chin, "Next stop! Let's go!"
Qi Linhan gazed at her adoringly, "Let's go."
The next stop was in a neighboring country, but Bai Yuanmo still sent a helicopter to transport them, after all, Ti Zi wasn't easy to travel with.
When they arrived at their destination, Sui Yan was still a bit dazed. She lowered her head, studying her phone, "Let me see... the hotel I booked is in..."
Qi Linhan attempted to entice his sweetheart, "I have a house not far from here, let's stay there."
Sui Yan genuinely considered this proposal, "Hmm... Oh! My brother just messaged me, he says his people are coming to pick me up soon."
Qi Linhan: "..."
Sui Yan clicked her tongue in amazement, "It's great to be rich!"
A hint of grievance in his eyes, Qi Linhan said, "Yan, I'm rich too."
Sui Yan, unfazed, retorted, "What's that got to do with me?"
As they were talking, a stretched limousine stopped in front of Sui Yan. "Miss, Mr. Bai asked us to take you to his villa."
Sui Yan scratched her head, "Why didn't my brother just have the helicopter drop us off directly?"
The man explained seriously, "Because there's no helipad at the villa, we had to make a detour."
Sui Yan nodded, still bewildered. This state of confusion continued until they reached their destination.
Looking at the person in front of her, she suddenly snapped out of it, "How come you're here too?"
The butler in front of her wore a perfect smile, "Miss, it's been a long time. This villa is an asset under our estate, of course I can be here."
Sui Yan: "... The old man sure knows how to play!"
The butler's smile gradually stiffened, "Miss, I'm not quite an old man yet."
Sui Yan patted Ti Zi's head, "Ti Zi, do you see? This old man still thinks he's young."
Butler: "..." Are you being polite?
Ti Zi: "Woof!" Everything Yan says is right!
Qi Linhan, who had shamelessly followed along, agreed, "People need to accept their age."
The two of them bantered back and forth, teasing the butler mercilessly.
With the butler around, Sui Yan didn't miss a single herbal meal. And after this, whether she was openly continuing to the next stop or secretly slipping off to another country, she would receive a call from the butler upon arrival.
She would once again see the butler's face with that perfect smile!
So Sui Yan couldn't take it anymore and simply fled back to her home country.
Once again setting foot on her motherland's soil, Sui Yan took a deep breath, "Ah! Home at last!"
Ti Zi elegantly stepped off the helicopter, "Woof~" Home at last~
Qi Linhan followed behind, carrying various bags, "Yan, check if you're missing anything."
Sui Yan had Qi Linhan put down the luggage, then squatted on the ground, counting her belongings. They were all gifts for her family!
"Yan, you're home?" Liu Hua, who had only gone abroad to play with Sui Yan for a few days, looked at her daughter standing at the doorstep, still a bit dazed, "Weren't you supposed to play until the end of the year before coming home?"
Sui Yan rushed over and clung to her mother, "Mom~ I've missed you so much."
Looking at her daughter's current state, Liu Hua was both touched and amused. She ruffled Sui Yan's hair, "Come on, how have you become more childish and affectionate?"
Sui Yan stood up properly with a serious face, "Mom, I haven't... Look, these are all gifts I bought for you, grandpa, grandma, and everyone else."
Liu Hua smiled gently, "Good, our Yan is so wonderful!"
She led Sui Yan, Ti Zi, and Qi Linhan into the house, saying as they walked, "If you hadn't come back, our house would have been filled with gifts."
Sui Yan casually picked up a small tangerine from the fruit bowl at home, "Why?"
Liu Hua spread her hands, "They're all gifts from your brother and sister. They have someone send you a gift every few days. And your dad, he often has things sent over too."
Sui Yan pouted, "Oh, just leave them there. I'm too lazy to open them."
Liu Hua couldn't help but laugh, "I was just waiting for you to open them yourself, isn't that more ceremonial?"
Sui Yan was unmoved, "Mom, when you have time, why don't you and Mo open these gifts together? Maybe there are things the family can use inside."
Liu Hua didn't force her, "Alright, then Mom will help you deal with these later. Also, your dad asked about your recent situation. If you want to call him, go ahead."
Although she said this, there wasn't a hint of support in Liu Hua's tone for Sui Yan to call Sui Jinhong. Who could blame her, after how Sui Jinhong was so uncaring toward his daughter in the previous life, as if he were blind.
Coincidentally, Sui Yan didn't want to call her dad either, "I'm too busy lately, playing games."
Liu Hua waved her hand, "Then we won't bother with him."
Suddenly, Sui Yan remembered something and couldn't help but ask, "Mom, how's the relationship between Sui Yu and his partner these days?"
Liu Hua shrugged, "Not so great, there might still be a hurdle in their hearts. But it seems much better than before, they should reconcile, it's just a matter of time."
Sui Yan felt a bit more at ease, "That's good."
This is for the best; otherwise, she wouldn't want to persuade Sui Yu and his partner in the future, helping them overcome their emotional barriers.
After she finished putting away her things, Qi Linhan, who had been playing the role of a decorative object, also came over, "Yan, today is the 15th, we can see the moon tonight."
Sui Yan, for once, didn't brush off his suggestion, "Shall we go see it later?"
Naturally, Qi Linhan couldn't ask for more, "Of course. Yan, I have something I want to tell you tonight."
Sui Yan couldn't help but laugh, "Your intentions are way too obvious!"
