I nodded. Jiang Zhihan got off quickly, went around to the co pilot and opened the door for me.

Zhang Mei led the way in front, and Jiang Zhihan helped me to follow. I observed the surrounding environment. It was obviously an old-fashioned residential area, and the facilities looked very old. Unexpectedly, Zhang Mei was willing to live in such a place. It seems that it has really changed.

Soon we arrived at the small house rented by Zhang Mei. The house was small, about more than 60 square meters. There were two bedrooms, a bathroom and a kitchen, but the living room was relatively small.

After entering the door, Zhang Mei was a little embarrassed. She was probably afraid of bearing us. She quickly opened the curtains and asked us to sit down on the sofa.

"Sit down and I'll get you that letter."

With that, Zhang Mei quickly entered her room and looked for the letter.

Jiang Zhihan and I looked at the house. It looked very old, and debris fell off the walls. It probably retains the previous decoration, and the refrigerator is also an old-fashioned two-story type. The orientation of the house is not very good. There is no sunshine in the daytime, and the lights in the house are still yellow.

Zhang Mei tossed inside for a while and came out with a yellow envelope. "That's it!"

I reached out and took it. Sure enough, my name was written on the envelope. It seems that it was really written to me by Xu Yao. But I'm not going to read it now. I just stuffed this letter into my bag and was ready to leave.

Zhang Mei looked at us and finally couldn't help saying, "qinran, can I talk to you alone?"

Before I spoke, Jiang Zhihan put forward his objection first, "no, I have to be present even if I want to talk!"

Looking at Zhang Mei's familiar face, I nodded and agreed. After all, this is my mother who has raised me for 20 years. Although she has been bad to me since childhood and has always regarded me as a cash cow, she has raised me after all.

Zhang Mei's face was overjoyed.

I patted Jiang Zhihan on the shoulder, "wait for me at the door! Don't worry, it's okay!"

Jiang Zhihan gave Zhang Mei a warning look, nodded and whispered, "if you have anything, call me and I'll be outside the door!"

I nodded.

After Jiang Zhihan went out, the two of us sat down on the sofa. I didn't speak and waited for Zhang Mei to speak.

Zhang Mei hesitated for a long time and said, "qinran, I'll apologize to you first. I'm sorry for you before! But I want you to do me a favor!"

On the surface, I was calm and raised my eyebrows. I didn't know what Zhang Mei wanted.

"Tell me first!"

Zhang Mei couldn't help coming up and holding my hand. Tears burst into her eyes. "Qinran, can you help me find Su Yuan? He has disappeared since he owed gambling debts. Why can't I find him? Can you help me? I want to find this son now!"

I didn't expect that Zhang Mei would ask me to help. I was still very surprised.

Zhang Mei saw that I didn't speak and thought I didn't want to, so she knelt down and burst into tears. "Qinran, just help me! I know I was sorry for you before. I apologize to you. You can treat me whatever you want, but Su Yuan is my son. I want to know where he is now and how he is doing?"

I was startled by her and quickly raised my hand to help her, "well, you get up first!"

Zhang Mei didn't move. "I won't get up unless you promise!"

I sighed and didn't immediately promise her, "you know I don't have any contacts. Even if I want to check, I can only ask my brother to check. I'll tell my brother about it, but if I can't find it in the end, I can't guarantee it."

Zhang Mei looked at me dimly with tears in her eyes and slowly got up from the ground, "thank you, qinran!"

I

Looking at the way Zhang Mei is so worried about Su Yuan, I feel bad. Obviously, Zhang Mei also knows how a mother wants to be with her children. Why didn't she want to return me to the Xu family after she knew I wasn't her child? There was a chance to make up for it a long time ago.

I said slowly, "I didn't expect you to be willing to live in such a place now!"

Zhang Mei sighed and wiped her tears. "What can we do? Now we have no money at all. Qianqian has to go to college. Creditors keep coming to her home, so we can only move out."

Before, Zhang Mei didn't work but had a steady stream of income, which was given to her by Xu Yao and me, but now she has no financial source and doesn't know how to live.

"How do you make money now?"

Zhang Mei was a little embarrassed. "I found a job as a cleaner, and I won't do anything else. Qianqian is also working now, and the money she makes can meet her own living expenses!"

I nodded and had to bow my head in the face of life.

When I left, I looked at Zhang Mei and said faintly, "let's not contact again in the future. If we meet, we should be treated as strangers! There should be no intersection between us. It's only because of the variable of Xu Yao that we connected our two families. Since Xu Yao has gone, everything before that has not happened!"

Zhang Mei looked at me and couldn't say anything. Finally, she nodded.

When the door opened, Jiang Zhihan saw Su qinran come out and quickly reached out to help her, "let's go?"

I nodded and directly followed Jiang Zhihan downstairs. I didn't turn around to see Zhang Mei again.

It was still early to get home. I went upstairs directly, sat on the couch on the balcony of my bedroom, looked up at the cloudless sky, and had the letter handed to me by Zhang Mei.

I nodded my finger on the letter and hesitated whether to open it or not.

In fact, after I recovered this time, I found that I remembered the memory before I was five years old.

But at that time, after all, it was too small to remember some things very clearly. But I can still vaguely remember that at that time, the Xu family spoiled me into a little princess, and everyone loved me very much.

Later, I was abducted and trafficked by human traffickers. Xu Yao was locked up with me. I still remember the little girl who had bright eyes, patted her chest and looked like a big sister, "don't be afraid, I'll protect you!"

I was trembling with fear. I don't know why. It seems that the fear in my heart dissipated a little. I nodded heavily. The two girls looked at each other and smiled. They were all bright and brilliant children.

At that time, Xu Yao gave me sunshine in my dark world.

I looked at the letter in my hand and finally locked it in the drawer without opening it.
