Day after day, the mysterious man's injuries gradually recovered. The astonishing recovery rate shocked Su Wanrou as well.

On this day, the man came back from outside and asked to leave.

Su Wanrou was standing behind her desk, drawing. Without even lifting her head, she asked, "Your pursuers have arrived?"

Su Wanrou didn't interfere with the man going out every day for the past few days. However, from the looks of it, he was probably thinking of ways to get some information from his subordinates in the outside world.

"That's right. However, that person is not my trusted aide. In order to not bring Miss down with me, I must leave quickly." The man lowered his head and said. His words were half true and half false. That person was indeed not one of his trusted aides. However, he had left on his own accord because he did not want Su Wanrou to know his true identity.

Su Wanrou didn't care about whether the man's words were true or false. She raised her brush and carefully finished the painting.

"When are you leaving?" Only then did Su Wanrou raise her gaze. Her face was fair and her features devoid of the innocence of a woman her age. On the contrary, it was a bit quiet. It was as calm as an ancient well, unfathomable.

The man also couldn't see through Su Wanrou, so he decided to leave on his own. Although Su Wanrou was his savior, in his eyes, his life was more important, so there couldn't be any mishap.

A clear wind blew and the man's hair was pulled up. For the past few days, he had been like Su Wanrou and simply tied up his hair. However, their outstanding appearance was quite eye-catching.

The man hesitated for a bit before raising his head and saying, "Immediately. This matter should be done as soon as possible. I will definitely repay Miss for saving me!"

However, what he thought in his heart was that the two of them would have a chance to meet again in the future.

Since she had already lived here for six to seven days, it was time for them to leave. Since that was the case, the two of them should not have the opportunity to see each other again in the future. Although they did not know each other's identities, they had become quite friendly these few days.

"Please take care of yourself, young master. For the sake of saving my life, let's wait until we meet again." She pursed her lips and smiled with a faint smile in her eyes. The man had the urge to embrace her.

But in the end, he did not do such a thing. He lived here for a few days, and Su Wanrou read and painted every day. It was obvious that she was unwilling to submit to others.

He didn't want to ruin the relationship between the two of them so he gave her a deep look and turned to leave. When he came back, he was already covered in wounds, and there was nothing he could take with him.

After a long time, a long sigh came from inside the house.

The painting on the table was a pond. It was covered by a fog and it was impossible to see into the distance. There was no one by the shore, and the white spot was treated extremely well, as if the scene was right in front of his eyes.

Su Wanrou pursed her lips. This was a place that appeared multiple times in her dreams after she was reborn. Her painting skills weren't considered excellent, but it was because she felt like she was in a situation, that's why she painted it so realistically.

What confused her the most was that she had never seen this place before. Even in her two lifetimes' worth of memories, there was no such memory of this place.

Su Wanrou didn't pay too much attention to such a strange thing. Since she was already here, what could be more mysterious than her rebirth?

"Gu Su, pack up and let's go back to the Manor." Su Wanrou walked to the window and raised her voice. It was clear from her tone that she was very bright and there was even a hint of excitement in her tone.

This time, she had really adapted to the matter of her rebirth, and the study of forgetting to eat and sleep had allowed her to reap some rewards. After returning home, she decided to find a teacher to teach her.

She heard that Zhou Yu was studying harder, so she definitely couldn't lose.

Gu Su was happy as well. When the master and servant came, they didn't bring much with them. Chu Yun prepared the carriage and when the two of them came out, he was already sitting in front of it.

Su Wanrou's eyes lit up with a sense of calculation, making Chu Yun shudder all of a sudden.

What was this woman trying to do now? He thought about it suspiciously, but did not ask.

When Su Mansion received the news, they hurriedly started to welcome the big miss back.

Old Lady Su was also overjoyed. She missed her precious granddaughter so much.

Madam Ning's dress was always simple and bright. Although her age was different from that of a little girl, and her outfit didn't seem appropriate, she only gave off a refreshing feeling when compared to the other girls.

As the carriage slowly approached, Gu Su jumped down from the carriage first and held the hand of her mistress.

"Mom, Grandma, Wan is back!" Seeing her family members, the sense of belonging she felt in her blood made Su Wanrou's face soften uncontrollably as she said with a smile. Madam Ning hurriedly held her hand and looked them up and down uneasily, causing Su Wanrou to feel slightly embarrassed.

Seeing her granddaughter in distress, Old Lady Su opened her mouth and said, "I don't know who told me, this old bones, to stop worrying. They said that Wan is living a good life in the side courtyard!"

Madam Ning's face reddened as she stammered, "Isn't this what a mother should be worried about …"

Su Wanrou smiled as if she remembered something. She turned around and looked at Chu Yun, who was about to drive away, and said, "Mom, Grandma, I'm quite considerate with this guard and his martial arts is very powerful. Why don't you ask Grandfather for help?"

Old Lady Su could not refuse Su Wanrou's request. She immediately waved her sleeves and agreed to this matter.

Madam Ning didn't have any objections. She was just a little bodyguard, Wan could have as many as she wanted. Sending someone to write a letter was good enough. She knew that her father's love for Wan wasn't inferior to his.

In front of the carriage, Chu Yun turned his head and looked at Su Wanrou with a cold expression. His dark eyes contained an unknown emotion, called 'I have nothing to live for'.

Su Wanrou smiled and read it as gratitude.

Gu Su, who was at the side, covered her mouth and chuckled. Of course, she knew that Chu Yun was at odds with her. Now that he had come, it could be considered as him giving up on the idea of returning.

A group of women embraced the Su Mansion and entered the pavilion where they promised Su Wanrou previously.

The courtyard had been enlarged, and two or three small courtyards had been added to the pavilion. Furthermore, there was a pond in the middle of the courtyard, with a fake mountain behind it, and a golden-red carp swimming in it.

Madam Ning had indeed put in a lot of effort in this fairy-like yard. Su Wanrou guessed that Su Qiu must have had some objections when they started the construction work. After all, in his heart, Su Xiuting was his precious daughter.

However, this matter was handled by Old Lady Su, so it wasn't a big problem.

With the support of Su Wanrou, Old Lady Su walked leisurely along the corridor, and asked expectantly, "How is it? Does Wan still like this garden? "

Su Wanrou nodded. It was a pleasant surprise.
