“Godmother, how did you know baby is here?”
Su Yimo whispered, leaning on Jing Xuan’s shoulder.
“Brat, switching to calling me godmother now, huh?” Jing Xuan responded, not too pleased.
Su Yimo’s reaction was indeed swift, showing no signs of slip-up in front of Jiang Yan.
The child was remarkably composed, lively yet poised despite being just over three years old.
“Xixi baby, do you have any idea that, if you pull stunts like today a few more times, it might drive your mommy into a frenzy?” Jing Xuan said, “It was your mom who called me.”
Though Su He had located him and Jiang You, Chilan Island wasn’t a place one could simply waltz onto, nor was it her turf, so she couldn’t just barge in.
Her presence today was because she was already on the island for a meeting.
Having just wrapped it up, she received Su He’s call and rushed over, fortunately staying in the same hotel.
Jing Xuan led him into the car, then immediately dialed Su He’s number, and the call connected right away.
“Baobao, I found Xixi, I’ll bring him back to you shortly.”
After hanging up, she instructed, “Lu Fei, drive.”
“Yes, Miss.”
At that moment, Jiang You burst out of the hotel entrance.
“Ms.
Xuan, wait for me.”
“Godmother, it’s little aunt.” Su Yimo pointed out the window.
“…”
After Jiang You got in, the car left the hotel.
Then, the car boarded the ferry, leaving Chilan Island.

Pear Garden Pavilion.
Su He sat on the sofa with a gloomy face.
Standing in front of her were Su Yimo and Jiang You.
Jing Xuan appeared relaxed as she watched from the side.
As for Su Heng, he was cluelessly observing the scene unfolding.
“Sister-in-law, I was wrong.
I shouldn’t have brought Xixi back so late, nor should I have taken Xixi to Chilan Island.
We almost got caught by my brother,” Jiang You said, hanging her head in apology.
“Mommy~ Baby knows it was wrong too.
Little aunt and I just wanted to retrieve something, we didn’t mean to come back late on purpose,” Su Yimo said in a pitiful, milky voice.
Subsequently, he pulled out an exquisite little wooden box from his backpack, which he always carried with him.

Su He frowned upon seeing the pattern on the box.
It was the box for the Jade Bangle, an item belonging to her mother.
After her mother’s passing, it was the only item left behind.
However, after the funeral, the Jade Bangle went missing.
Having reached adulthood, she had been searching for it in secrecy.
The Jade Bangle had been a constant presence on her mother since her childhood, making it the object that had accompanied her the longest.
Su Yimo said, “Mommy~ I knew you had Uncle Yang searching for grandma’s bangle, so baby went with little aunt to the auction house today to give you a surprise.”
Su He was taken aback by the familiar Jade Bangle.
This item she had searched for so long was eventually found by her son.
For a moment, she was uncertain whether to reprimand or to be moved.
She always knew her son was intelligent, but his intellect far exceeded that of a three-year-old.
Su Yimo blinked his big shiny eyes and puckered his lips, “Mommy, can you please not be mad?”
He was genuinely afraid of Su He getting angry and punishing him by making him stand in the corner to reflect; that was so boring.
Su He sighed, then lifted him onto her lap.
“Do you have any idea that your ‘surprise’ almost turned into a ‘shock’?” Su He gently tapped his forehead with her finger.
If Jiang Yan had seen his face, everything would have been over.
