Late at night.
The doorbell of the Ran Family estate suddenly began to ring in quick succession.
Very urgent, very frequent.
Madam Ran, who lived on the first floor and was a light sleeper, was startled awake.
As she leaned on her wheelchair and came out from inside, the outdoor lights were already on, and Si Qian, wearing a coat, hurried down the stairs.
"Mom, I'll go open the door, you don't have to come out," she said.
Madam Ran nodded but did not go back.
Shortly after, Si Qian came in with Lu Nancheng.
"Grandma," Lu Nancheng called out, nodding to her.
"What's the matter?" Madam Ran asked.
Lu Nancheng said, "Nothing, I'm here to pick up Xiaoqian to take him home."
"Oh."
As Lu Nancheng followed Si Qian upstairs, Madam Ran couldn't help but frown.
She looked up at the time, 2:20 in the morning.
**
Upstairs.
Si Qian led Lu Nancheng into Ran Tong's bedroom.
On the large double bed, there was only Lu Xiaoqian, sleeping by himself.
