Aunt Zou heard the noise and rushed over, only to see the terrifying scene.

“Ah! Second miss!”

“Young master!”

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Insects!”

What was even more terrifying than that was the woman standing in front of them.

Pa!

Xu Mingzhi silenced Aunt Zou with a slap.

“What are you shouting for? Don’t disturb my daughter!”

Xu Mingzhi glanced at Aunt Zou, and with one look, the blood in her body froze!

She clutched her head and stammered, “M-Madam Xu? Why are you here?”

Xu Mingzhi threw the key in front of Aunt Zou, “I opened the door and came in.”

When they divorced, Su Cunyi had arrogantly said, “you don’t have to return the key.”

Of course, Aunt Zou wasn’t asking her how she got in.

She thought she was abroad.

Why did she suddenly return to the country?

Xu Mingzhi lifted her hand to open the door, but stopped halfway.

She turned around and asked in a much softer voice, “my daughter is inside?”

“Yes, that’s Su Ji’s room.”

Xu Mingzhi was suppressing her surging emotions while her daughter was still sleeping inside.

She had waited for so many years, so a little more was not a big deal.

Her daughter was still sleeping and it was only 6 o’clock. She had never seen her daughter awake at this time.

At this time, many servants had come over.

Xu Mingzhi’s gaze turned from his daughter’s room to them, and her gentle eyes instantly turned cold.

Xu Mingzhi raised her hand and pointed at them, “you, carry the two on the ground away! You, clean up these bugs! You, go and buy 10 pounds of lychees!”

A bug tried to crawl into Su Ji’s room through the crack on the door but Xu Mingzhi stomped it flat with one foot!

The bugs trembled in fear as they circled around and crawled back onto Su Qianrou and Su Junye’s bodies.

Seeing this, even Aunt Zou was frightened. She quickly carried them.

It was as if she would end up like that bug if she waited for even a second!

Even the servants who did not know Xu Mingzhi did not dare to disobey her.

They were even more obedient to her than to Mr. Su.

All of them had solemn expressions on their faces.

This was the true imposing aura of a madam!

Compared to her, Ning Lihua was just a maid who slept with the master!

“Be gentle, don’t wake her up!” Xu Mingzhi said.

“Yes!”

Xu Mingzhi looked at the tightly shut door and left after a long while.

When she went downstairs to supervise the servants, her sharp eyes scanned the surroundings. The decorations in the room were quite different from when she left.

The decorations that used to be of good taste now had tacky flower arrangements, a few graduation photos that didn’t belong to her daughter, and a family photo of her daughter being squeezed to the edge.

“Boss, where are you now?” Wei Wei called, “I just came back from the police station and I heard from the hotel staff that you left a long time ago?”

Xu Mingzhi said, “I’m out to settle some matters. You can stay in the hotel to deal with work. By the way, how’s Ning Lihua doing?”

“Don’t worry, she’s suspected of bribery and possessing illegal drugs. The people from the Four Seasons Hotel who colluded with her were also arrested.”

“Okay, ” Xu Mingzhi replied and hung up the phone. She looked out of the window and noticed a patch of lush greenery.

Her heart tightened as she walked towards it.

Next to the lush Isatis indigotica Fortune bushes was Wang Zhicheng, who weeded and watered the plants every day when he got up.

Wang Zhicheng heard someone approaching and turned around vigilantly. The next second, he immediately stood up straight, “M-Madam???”

He thought he was dreaming. He rubbed his eyes and opened them again. Xu Mingzhi was still there.

He noticed that Xu Mingzhi had been looking at the herbs, so he said, “Madam! These were all planted by Su Ji!”

Xu Mingzhi’s vision was blurry.

As expected, her daughter had returned!

Her daughter loved to cultivate herbs since she was young.

In the past, her courtyard was filled with herbs planted by her daughter.

Seeing that her eyes were wet, Wang Zhicheng burst into tears.

“Madam! You’ve finally come to see her!”

Xu Mingzhi clenched her fists tightly, “Ning Lihua, how dare you try to harm my precious daughter!!!”

Thinking of what Pei Huai had said today, she was terrified.

If her daughter really fell for it, and if the Mr. Yu who came to the Four Seasons Hotel yesterday wasn’t her, then she would be in trouble.

The consequences would be unimaginable!

She would definitely destroy the entire earth!

Wang Zhicheng saw that she finally stopped hiding her feelings for her daughter, so he took the opportunity to complain to her, “Ning Lihua even injured her head and took her money! When you were not around, she was in a terrible state!”

This time, he would not let her leave Su Ji.

When Xu Mingzhi heard this, she punched the tree trunk beside her, “Ning Lihua, prepare to rot in prison!”

The tree that was punched fell.

A 20-year-old tree had been split in half from the middle, and it died a tragic death!

The servants who peeked their heads out of the window upstairs trembled.

“She’s so scary!!”

“I thought that the eldest miss has changed. Now, it seems that she hasn’t changed. She has only awakened the genes in her body that belong to Madam!!”

Wang Zhicheng wiped his tears with his sleeve and said, “please come back to the Su family…”

“In your dreams,” Xu Mingzhi replied without even thinking.

???

Wang Zhicheng was shocked, “do you want Su Ji to continue being bullied by the Su family?”

“I want to take my daughter away from the Su family,” she said.

**

Su Ji woke up at 10 o’clock, as if she had sensed the unusual atmosphere in the Su family’s house.

She simply put on a plain lounge set and went downstairs with her hair in a mess. She went to the kitchen to get water.

A woman was standing in the kitchen with her back to her. She seemed to be washing fruits.

Xu Mingzhi turned around when she heard the footsteps. The next second, the lychee in her hand fell to the ground.

It rolled forward nimbly and bumped into Su Ji’s feet.

Su Ji looked down at the lychee, and when she looked up again, she fell into an extremely warm embrace.

Xu Mingzhi hugged her tightly, “mom is back!”

Su Ji took half a step back. She was stunned for a moment before she reacted.

She patted her back casually, “oh, why did you come back?”

Xu Mingzhi pulled away and held her face in her hands.

She stared at her, wishing she could embed her into her eyes.

The veins on Xu Mingzhi’s face were obvious. She held back her strong emotions and raised her daughter’s face to make her look at her!

“Baby, look, it’s me!”

“Your real mom!”

Her face was reflected in Su Ji’s eyes.

Su Ji stared at her.

As time passed, her pupils contracted little by little, accompanied by a throbbing pain in her heart…
