Only after Ning Yan released her daughter, her eyes slightly reddened, she invited her children, “Come, let’s eat. Today’s menu is filled with all your favorites.”

“Okay.” Xiao Ruiling nodded joyfully, linking her arm with her mother’s and leading the way to the dining room.

As the family gathered around the dining table and savored their meal, Xiao Ruiling turned to Xiao Yichen and suggested, “Yichen, go upstairs and rest. Come down later for a chat.”

“Okay…” Xiao Yichen nodded, exchanging a meaningful glance with his parents before ascending the staircase.

Seated in the living room with her parents, Xiao Ruiling turned her attention toward the staircase. After confirming her brother’s departure, she whispered to her mother, “Mom, Yichen and Lin Wan…”

A single mention sufficed for her mother to comprehend the unspoken question.

“Sigh.” Ning Yan sighed before revealing. “Lin Wan suddenly left five years ago. Yichen was deeply saddened. He even mobilized Shen Qing and others to search for Lin Wan, but they couldn’t locate her…”

Ning Yan relayed the details of her son’s predicament and the subsequent changes over the past five years.

Deeply moved, Xiao Ruiling felt a pang of sadness for her brother. “It seems Yichen truly loves Lin Wan.”

“What good is love? If Lin Wan never returns, will Yichen live like this indefinitely? I won’t agree,” declared Ning Yan, her hopes pinned on her only son, who would soon provide them with a grandchild.

While understanding her mother’s sentiments, Xiao Ruiling pondered her brother’s profound affection for Lin Wan. Could he truly entertain the idea of marrying someone else?

After Lin Wan arrived at her mother’s house, she promptly called to inform her mother of her safe return.

Qiao Yujuan still had one last class to attend and suggested that her daughter use the ingredients and food in the fridge if she wasn’t hungry, promising a delicious meal upon her return.

After the call, after assuring her mother of her lack of hunger, Lin Wan inspected the fridge’s contents and donned an apron to prepare a meal.

During her five years overseas, Lu Hao was often responsible for cooking. But she had honed her culinary skills for Ranran’s sake. Lin Wan had become adept in the kitchen.

Upon Qiao Yujuan’s return, the aromatic spread on the dining table almost brought tears to her eyes.

“Wanwan…” Qiao Yujuan affectionately called out to her daughter, hastening to the kitchen.

However, she was pleasantly surprised to see Lin Wan emerging in an apron before reaching the kitchen door.

“Mom.” Equally thrilled to see her mother, Lin Wan approached and enveloped her in a tight hug.

“Wanwan, you’re finally back. I missed you so much,” Qiao Yujuan exclaimed with excitement.

“Mom, I missed you too. How have you been these past five years?” Lin Wan leaned against her mother’s shoulder, inquiring about her mother’s life.

Despite regular phone calls, she knew her mother always shared only the joyful aspects, keeping the sadness hidden.

“Very good, everything is fine,” Qiao Yujuan reassured her daughter.

“Mom, I won’t leave you again. I’ll always be by your side, taking care of you,” Lin Wan promised.

“Alright, alright. I don’t need you to take care of me. Just stay by my side with Ranran, and I won’t feel lonely,” Qiao Yujuan told her daughter.

The mother and daughter embraced warmly before sitting down to enjoy their meal, engaging in conversation as they ate.

“Wanwan, when will Lu Hao and Ranran be back?” Qiao Yujuan inquired. Lin Wan had only mentioned returning first, and she was eager to know when Lu Hao would bring Ranran back in the following days..
