Luo Yanqing comforts Ming Wei after her mother, Feng Lu, uses the secret of Ming Wei and her brother's origins to force Ming Wei to live with her. Kang Li confronts Feng Lu about her treatment of Ming Wei, but Feng Lu remains defiant. Luo Yanqing reassures Ming Wei that she and her brother will always be his children, regardless of their origins or Feng Lu's threats.
"Don’t worry; your mother and I won't abandon you and Luo Minghan. You know, your names are registered with our family," Luo Yanqing stated. He continued, "Would you like to return home? Your mother has been quite worried about you lately, and I'm about to head back to the precinct. If you continue living elsewhere and something were to happen, your mother would be caught between her work and rushing home, unable to be by your side promptly. This would weigh heavily on her conscience." "I'll come home," Ming Wei declared, wiping her tears. "I don't want Mom to worry, nor do I wish to see her struggle. I'll do as Dad says and disregard what others opine. I just need to remember that I am their child." Luo Yanqing's dark eyes held a glimmer of relief. "That's the right attitude. Now, return to your classroom. Your mother and I will wait for you and Luo Minghan at the school gate until classes end. Then, I'll help transport your belongings back home. Does that sound acceptable?" "It's perfectly fine," Ming Wei replied, shaking her head vigorously. She then dashed towards the teaching building, observed by Luo Yanqing. Upon seeing Ming Wei depart, Feng Lu shot Kang Li a furious glare. "Don't assume that just because Luo Yanqing spoke to my daughter, she'll return to you." "Why such confidence, Lady Feng, when you stand here fuming?" Kang Li asked impassively. "You reap what you sow. Recall how Lady Feng abandoned her child back then. She ought to have the wisdom not to trouble the children now. Otherwise, when that sliver of maternal affection erodes from their hearts, Lady Feng will surely face regret." "I am not easily frightened!" Feng Lu's voice dripped with malice, as if she longed to devour Kang Li whole. "Xiao Li." Luo Yanqing approached, standing beside Kang Li, and addressed Feng Lu sternly. "Actions and reactions are reciprocal. I echo Luo Mingwei's sentiments back to you. If you crave notoriety, proceed with your schemes." Shifting his gaze away from Feng Lu, Luo Yanqing took Kang Li's hand. "Let's wait in the car." "Very well," Kang Li nodded. Watching their retreating figures, Feng Lu sensed a loss of control. The school dismissal bell echoed, and soon after, streams of students poured out from the school gates. "Second Brother." "..." Outside the classroom, Ming Han heard Ming Wei's call and paused, turning to face her. "Why are you calling me?" he questioned. If he could, he genuinely wished to ignore this foolish sister. He felt that woman was utterly worthless, yet she insisted on obeying her, leaving home to reside with that individual. Today, she even engaged in altercations with classmates to defend that woman's honor. And to what end? Did that woman appreciate it? No! Not only did she fail to appreciate it, but she also berated them, demanding this foolish girl apologize to the hypocrite, Han Qian. The mere thought made him furious. Ming Wei spoke, "I want to go with you." Ming Han raised his eyebrows. "You wish to return home with me?" "Yes," Ming Wei affirmed, nodding. "I acknowledge I was wrong." "Weren't you so resolute? Weren't you ignoring all counsel? What prompted this sudden decision to move back?" Ming Han felt pleased internally, but his words remained sharp. "Did that woman break your heart?" Ming Wei offered no direct reply, instead remarking casually, "Dad and Mom are waiting for us at the school gate!" Before Ming Han could respond, Ming Wei had already moved ahead. "Hmph, foolish girl!" Ming Han followed with an air of arrogance. "If you act foolishly again, don't blame me for turning against you as your brother!" "Got it, got it," Ming Wei responded repeatedly with a smile, though inwardly she mused. Had she not made this sacrifice, the preceding few days of misery would not have been solely hers! Indeed, it was Ming Wei who sacrificed herself, imploring Feng Lu not to reveal the truth of their lineage to her brother Ming Han. Otherwise, even facing utter ruin, she would never reside with the so-called birth mother, Feng Lu. By keeping them somewhat balanced, Ming Wei ensured she wouldn't be easily bullied by Feng Lu. The car reached the courtyard entrance, and Kang Li said to Ming Han, "Hanhan, you and Rui Rui go home first. Your father and I will accompany Vivi to your mother's residence." Ming Han asked, "Are you going to collect my sister's belongings?" Kang Li nodded. "Yes. Since Vivi desires to return home, she must bring all her possessions back." "Then I'll tell Grandma to set aside some food for you," Ming Han replied cheerfully. Hearing this, Kang Li responded with a smile, "Yes, inform Grandma and Grandpa as well."
