Bai Yaoyao heard Nanny Zhou's voice and sighed in her heart. She thought back to Bai Family when she was at the back, if it wasn't for Nanny Zhou protecting her, secretly going out during the day to pick up trash, constantly helping her. At that time when she was in school, she probably wouldn't even be able to afford the food in the cafeteria.

She had been so good to him since she was young. She was his elder and was the closest person to him besides his mother. He had not seen her for so long and was worried about her, but he couldn't take care of himself either.

Bai Yaoyao stopped thinking about the past and came back to her senses. Her eyes were a little red, "Nanny Zhou, where are you now? "Otherwise, come to my place first. I just rented a house so that you can recognize me. I'll send you the address anytime. If you come, give me a call."

"Okay, okay. Miss, I'll go, I'll go right now …" The hope in her voice and the passionate eagerness to see Bai Yaoyao's heart. Nanny Zhou was no longer able to hold it in.

Bai Yaoyao, who had just hung off the phone, curled up on the sofa. Her memory flooded her like a tidal wave, including the time she spent with that man. It made her upset.

Jian Luomo sat beside her without a word, gently patting her delicate shoulder. At this moment, she had the urge to rest her head on his shoulder. Just as she turned her head, she could clearly hear her own heartbeat.

No matter how difficult it was, he couldn't do this! If he did that, what would be the difference between Qu Ruo and him?

After calming down, she looked at the expectant Jian Luomo and said in a low voice, "Luomo, how about this. I'll treat you to dinner tonight and thank you for helping me move out. I still have some matters to attend to, so it might not be too convenient to keep you."

"Then … I'll go back first. In the evening, I'll come to pick you up …" Jian Luomo stood up awkwardly and politely smiled at Xiaoxiao. He bid farewell to Bai Yaoyao and reluctantly left.

Bai Yaoyao and Xiaoxiao had been waiting at home for about an hour when someone knocked on the door.

She hurried to open the door, only to see Nanny Zhou's familiar figure standing there. Her figure was already slightly hunched, and did not seem to be able to stand up straight; her hair and temples had also turned gray; and on her weather-beaten face, there were traces of age. Her entire body, or one could even say that her body was emaciated; even a gust of wind would be able to knock her down.

"Miss …" Nanny Zhou's eyes were bloodshot as she stepped forward and took Bai Yaoyao's hand.

Before Bai Yaoyao could say anything, she hugged Nanny Zhou. She was already sobbing soundlessly.

After greeting each other, they brought Nanny Zhou into the room. She looked around, wiping away the tears at the corner of her eyes, and said in a low voice, "Miss, are you staying here right now? Where's my wife? Is she with you? Although the room is a little small, compared to when I was at Bai Family, it is indeed a lot better. "

Xiaoxiao poured a cup of hot water for Nanny Zhou and placed it on the table. Although she had seen it before, she didn't know it because Xiaoxiao had almost never been to Bai Yaoyao's house. At that time, she thought that Bai Yaoyao was just being low-key.

As for Nanny Zhou, she had only met him once, so there was no need to even mention being familiar with him.

"Nanny Zhou, my mother, she … I don't know where she is right now. However, I can guarantee that she is very safe and well." Bai Yaoyao said indifferently. She could not help but think of Qu Ruo. He was worthy of her trust. Her mother must be fine.

As long as he could ensure his mother's safety, Bai Yaoyao was sufficient.

Nanny Zhou nodded, wiping the tears from her eyes. "That's right. It's good that Madam is fine!"

"Then Nanny Zhou, after you left the Bai Family, were you taken away by my uncle? Is it Eldest Uncle? Did his temper suddenly change? Why would I suddenly bring you back? " This surprised Bai Yaoyao. Previously, when her mother was still at home, she would occasionally return the Su Family and the two uncles would put on an expression as if they were not allowed to enter the house in the future.

As expected, her suspicions were not without reason. Before she could say anything, Nanny Zhou had already started sobbing softly. She rolled up her sleeves, revealing the bright red scars on her arms.

"What's going on?" Bai Yaoyao exclaimed as she rolled up Nanny Zhou's other sleeve. The wound on her arm was even more severe than the previous one.

His heart hurt as tears welled up in his eyes. "Nanny Zhou, you've suffered …"

"Sofia …" This was the name Nanny Zhou used to address Bai Yaoyao the most. Now, when she called her name out loud, she was still as amiable as ever. Nanny Zhou is old now, and these are all nothing to worry about. I don't have any relatives anyways, so I've always treated you as my own daughter. The ones I'm most worried about are you and your mother. "

"Nanny Zhou, stop talking." For so long, if my mother and I had not been under your care, who knows what would have happened while we were in Bai Family. "In the future, you can stay with me. I can help you retire, so don't come back to my aunt's house. Otherwise, you'll die in their hands sooner or later." Bai Yaoyao took out some anti-swelling and pain-relieving ointment that Xiaoxiao had prepared for her in the medicine box. She carefully applied these ointments to the wounds.

Bai Yaoyao understood that the eldest uncle's two sons, the second uncle's two daughters, were all honest and kind. Other than the youngest daughter of the second uncle, she was also about the same age as Bai Yaoyao, but none of them were easy to deal with. Nanny Zhou's life at the eldest uncle's house must have been pretty bad, so how could she feel at ease and let her return to that hot place?

Xiaoxiao didn't say anything. She just quietly listened to their conversation. After a long time, she tugged at the corner of Bai Yaoyao's clothes, gesturing for her to come over.

"Hmm, what's wrong, Xiaoxiao?" Bai Yaoyao looked at Nanny Zhou behind her and asked Xiaoxiao.

"It's not that I'm talking about you, I know that your relationship with Nanny Zhou is very good, but, think about it, you are only a poor student now!" If you were to do part-time jobs, you would only be able to live on your own. How could you afford to support Nanny Zhou? Furthermore, when a person is old and will often get sick, are you sure you can afford it? "

Xiaoxiao's worry was not unreasonable, but it was for Bai Yaoyao's own good.

Before they could finish, Nanny Zhou suddenly appeared behind them. She held Bai Yaoyao's hand with a pleading tone. "Miss, please let me be with you. I really don't want to go back …"
