Su Yannan never thought that the person who would come and pick him up would be the butler.

The housekeeper was one of her mother's people, but after her mother passed away, he was kicked out of the Su Clan by her stepmother because his hands and feet weren't clean.

For two years, the housekeeper had been the only one to visit her often.

"Uncle, why are you so free to come and pick me up today?" A smile appeared on Su Yan's face.

The butler pushed the bicycle forward and looked at her lovingly. "Today is a big day for us to return home. No matter how busy Uncle is, he will personally come."

The butler had no family, and he had always doted on Su Yan as his own daughter.

"By the way, Uncle just saw two men by your side. One of them even knelt down towards you," the butler hesitated, "Did something happen?"

Su Youting stared blankly for a moment, then waved his hand in a very natural manner.

"Oh, those are two beggars. Uncle, don't think too much. The one who is kneeling is begging with me."

"Huh?" The butler was surprised. He believed Su Yan's words and said, "How come there's a beggar driving such a good car this year? The clothes he's wearing are not cheap either."

Remembering the jade pendant Wen Heng had placed on him, Su Yanqing also nodded angrily. "That's right, Uncle, they're too shameless. They're obviously so rich, but they're still insisting on begging me for it."

"How can such a person become a beggar?"

Su Yan's smile was strange. "Uncle, you don't know this, but being a beggar is a skill book. Don't underestimate them …"

The butler gazed at Su Yan as he chattered on. His eyes were filled with benevolence.

The driver suddenly felt an itch on his nose and sneezed.

Was the temperature in the car too low?

The driver thought for a moment, then turned up the air conditioner.

He glanced at the elderly and the young man who were walking further and further away. Without waiting for General Wen's orders from the back seat, he very consciously welcomed them into the car.

The last time he had seen his uncle, his body had been quite sturdy, but in the short span of two months, his body had lost weight. Even his head was covered with dust.

Su Yan pretended not to notice these changes. She rubbed the butler's shoulder with her face and said softly, "Uncle, I don't want to go back home, so take me back to your place."

The housekeeper knew what she meant.

"Come on, say something," the housekeeper smiled and let her go, then pointed at the back seat of the bicycle, "Get on, uncle will take you to buy some vegetables, I'll make you a good dinner tonight, and I'll take it as a welcoming reception."

"Thank you, uncle!" Knowing that he had promised him, Su Yan hopped onto the back seat in high spirits.

As the bicycle drove slowly along the road, Su Yannu buried his face in his uncle's back.

In this world, besides her mother, her uncle was the person closest to her.

Of course, this did not include a good father who was related by blood to her but did not regard her as his daughter.

"Uncle, I want to eat meat tonight. I don't have much meat to eat in there …" Su Yannan said coquettishly.

"Alright, just tell me what you want to eat. Uncle will cook them for you."

"There's no need to follow them," watching the two of them leave, Wen Heng narrowed his eyes.

The driver did not know what was going on, but he still stopped the car by the side of the road.

The bicycle quickly disappeared from his line of sight. Wen Erlang lowered his eyes and looked at the jade pendant lying quietly in his palm. For a time, the expression in his eyes was somewhat gloomy and unclear.
