Kang Li returns to find her children playing at their grandfather's house. Meanwhile, a woman named Feng Lu appears, claiming to be Min Rui's biological mother and Ming Wei's mother, causing a commotion. Neighbors gossip about Feng Lu's suspicious reappearance after being presumed dead. Feng Lu eventually persuades Ming Wei to leave with her, but Kang Li arrives just in time. Other neighbors discuss Kang Li's virtues in contrast to Feng Lu's perceived flaws.

Listening to Min Rui’s words, Kang Li felt a mix of warmth and unease. Her gaze softened as she looked upon her beloved eldest son. "Ruirui..."

Honestly, for her to be more important to the children she raised than their birth mother brought Kang Li immense happiness. However, she never entertained the notion of having Min Rui and his siblings forget their biological mother entirely.

Now, knowing that the biological mother of the three children had faked her death and was, in fact, alive and well, Kang Li hadn’t considered preventing them from recognizing her. The crucial condition, however, was that this supposed biological mother must not bring harm to her three children.

With this thought, Kang Li’s lips parted slightly. "Actually, it’s a good thing for you, Hanhan, and Vivi to have your biological mother alive. The reason Mom asked why you didn’t initially write or call to tell me about your biological mother being alive was because the matter seemed sudden and somewhat suspicious. Hence, I was a bit upset with you and our family’s Professor Luo, but Mom can clearly tell you, Mom won’t stop you, Hanhan, or Vivi from recognizing your biological mother,"

"as long as she cares about you, truly loves you, you can completely and openly interact with your biological mother, and even stay with her for a few days is fine."

"But if your biological mother claims to want to recognize you, yet does things that hurt you, Mom hopes you brothers and sisters won’t be soft-hearted and accommodating just because of blood ties."

"You must protect yourselves, only then can Mom be at ease with you interacting with her. I believe your father’s thoughts are probably similar to mine, did you understand?"

"Mom! I won’t recognize that person, nor will I interact with her. In my heart, it’s you who gave me motherly love, it’s you who painstakingly taught me as I grew up. I will always recognize only you as my mother!"

Min Rui’s tearful black eyes brimmed with emotion as he declared, "That person gave birth to me; that fact is remembered. When she is old and frail, I will follow the national law and fulfill my responsibilities to support her."

"It’s great that you are so clear-headed; Mom is happy for you."

Praising her sensible son, Kang Li smiled and added, "Relax a bit. Matters concerning your biological mother, regardless of their magnitude, always have a solution. You don’t need to worry."

"Mm."

Min Rui’s expression eased somewhat, though a preoccupied air still lingered about him.

At the Han family’s secluded villa.

"Master Wang, please wait outside for a moment. I wish to speak with my daughter alone."

"Understood, madam."

Once the car had entered the gates and come to a halt, Feng Lu instructed the driver to hold position. She then turned her quiet gaze to Ming Wei. "Did you remember everything I told you?"

Ming Wei kept her head bowed, her lips sealed tightly, remaining utterly silent.

"Luo Mingwei, I am not joking with you." Feng Lu's expression soured. "If you disobey me, the consequences will be exactly as I described."

Slowly raising her head, Ming Wei met Feng Lu’s gaze and softly replied, "...Don’t worry. As long as you say it, I will listen."

Feng Lu offered a smile. "Mom didn't misjudge you; you are far more obedient than your brother Ming Han." Employing the tactic of a stern warning followed by gentle reassurance, Feng Lu didn’t want Ming Wei to be a liability in front of Han Bin. She continued, "By the way, the young girl residing in this house shares your age. She is the daughter of your father and another woman. You don't need to endure everything in her presence, but do not deliberately stir up trouble either."

"Additionally, that child's temperament isn't the best, and she's adept at feigning victimhood. Therefore, you must remain vigilant. When you observe her putting on a show of distress, you must immediately mirror her act to avoid being ousted from this household within a mere two days."

Ming Wei nodded. "I understand."

"On a related note, she attends the same school as you. Her name is Han Qian. Have you heard of her at school?" As Feng Lu inquired, she noticed Ming Wei falter, prompting her to ask, "What is it?"

"We are in the same class."

Ming Wei's face remained impassive, yet she hadn't anticipated that her biological mother, who had abandoned her shortly after birth, not only faked her death during the birth of her and brother Ming Han but had now, after over a decade, 'returned from the dead' and shamelessly become the stepmother to her classmate, Han Qian.

What was she to do?

Han Qian had harbored animosity towards her since kindergarten; they had even engaged in physical altercations before. If Han Qian were to see her now, the unpleasant words spewing from her mouth would likely exceed mere civilities.

"Same class?"

Feng Lu expressed her surprise, "Then your relationship..." Okay? The remainder of her question remained unspoken, as Feng Lu suddenly recalled a conversation overheard that very morning on the second-floor staircase. It was between Han Bin and his daughter, Han Qian. If her memory served her correctly, that brat Han Qian had, in fact, brought up the names Luo Minghan and Luo Mingwei. She had also remarked on how Luo Minghan bore a striking resemblance to a younger Han Bin.
