Tongtong put her hands on her hips and said indignantly,
"Hmph, even if Daddy didn't tell me, I've already guessed it!"
Then she winked and said,
"I'm Daddy's little genius! Grandpa must have asked Daddy about Mommy, right?"
Liu Yifeng looked at Tongtong and sighed helplessly, then said with a smile,
"It seems Tongtong is indeed Daddy's little genius! You weren't stumped by this."
He had known all along that Tongtong would be able to guess it. After all, this child was omniscient.
Seeing Liu Yifeng sigh, Tongtong thought that Liu Yifeng's conversation with her maternal grandfather, Father Su, today had stirred up painful memories for Liu Yifeng about Yun Duo'er.
So, she patted Liu Yifeng's head comfortingly and said,
"Daddy, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought up Mommy!"
Then she counted on her fingers and said,
"Daddy, don't be sad anymore! I won't be sad about Mommy anymore either.
Because even though Mommy doesn't love us anymore, we now have Aunt Su Wanru, Grandpa, and Grandma."
Tongtong said excitedly,
"When I was chatting with Grandma today, she told me that I have an uncle too! It's just that my uncle is a bit busy this year, so he didn't celebrate the New Year with Grandpa and Grandma."
Liu Yifeng felt even more affectionate towards Tongtong when he saw his son comforting him like this.
Yun Duo'er truly deserved all the blame for abandoning such an understanding and adorable child like Tongtong.
He secretly made a resolution:
"I will definitely give Tongtong the best life and make Yun Duo'er regret treating Tongtong like this!"
Liu Yifeng looked at Tongtong with a hint of pride and said,
"Daddy isn't hurt by Mommy at all. Having Tongtong is enough for me now!"
As father and son were talking, the car arrived at their doorstep.
When they returned home, Liu Chunsheng had wanted to ask Liu Yifeng why he hadn't come back for dinner today.
However, seeing Liu Yifeng give him a knowing glance, he didn't ask further.
After Liu Yifeng put Tongtong to sleep, he briefly explained the situation to Liu Chunsheng.
Liu Chunsheng sighed and lamented for a while.
But soon, a look of joy appeared on his face, and he said happily,
"This is also a good thing! Tongtong has found his aunt, his grandparents, and gained a few more people to care for him."
Liu Yifeng also sighed and said,
"Dad! You're right! Now there are a few more people who can love and care for Tongtong."
On Yun Duo'er's side, Sister Jin notified her to go to the company to re-sign the contract, realizing that she had indeed angered the boss with her previous actions.
Her own cleverness – trying to make things difficult for Tongtong – had cost her dearly.
She agreed to Sister Jin's request to go to the company the next day to re-sign.
Thinking about how Su Wanru hadn't contacted her since their unpleasant farewell with Father Su, Mother Su, and Su Wanru,
She became a little anxious:
She wondered if the Su family's previous promise to invest in Director Li's crew was still valid. Had they actually handled the matter?
So, she contacted Su Wanru.
When Yun Duo'er called Su Wanru, Su Wanru was in a meeting at the head office, discussing the sales arrangements for the upcoming quarter's fruit market. She didn't receive Yun Duo'er's call promptly.
When Yun Duo'er couldn't get through to Su Wanru, her anxiety grew.
Under the company's pressure, with no hope of turning back, she re-signed the amended new contract.
After signing, Yun Duo'er felt a sense of despair.
She knew that under Sister Jin's management from now on, her prospects would be bleak, let alone achieving her former dream of becoming a dazzling international star after sending Tongtong away.
Su Wanru was completely unaware of everything happening with Yun Duo'er. After the meeting, she saw the missed calls on her phone and immediately called Yun Duo'er back.
Yun Duo'er was lost in her thoughts and didn't notice Su Wanru's call.
When she returned home that evening, she finally saw it.
Her heart was filled with resentment towards Su Wanru's delayed call.
Yun Duo'er's beautiful face contorted with hatred.
Then, Yun Duo'er violently smashed her phone to the ground!
Facing an empty, cold home, she cried out desperately,
"You gave me hope, and then you made me despair! What relatives! It's all fake! Fake!"
She collapsed onto the ground, weeping powerlessly.
Suddenly, Yun Duo'er looked up again, gazed out the window, and muttered resentfully,
"The reason I've become like this now! It's all the result of you so-called relatives! Su Wanru, Dad, Mom, I won't let you have an easy time!"
She threw her head back and laughed wildly,
"Ha! Ha! Ha..."
Seeing that her phone showed multiple missed calls from Yun Duo'er, Su Wanru assumed Yun Duo'er was busy with work and didn't call again.
In the evening, when she returned home to the Su residence, she mentioned this to Father Su and Mother Su. Both of them thought Yun Duo'er was probably busy and didn't pay much attention to it.
That evening, while they were having dinner, Mother Su suddenly sneezed. She looked at Father Su and Su Wanru and said,
"I have a bad feeling. Why don't you call Duo'er again, Wanru?"
Father Su said,
"What could be wrong? It's winter, sneezing is normal. Let's eat, let's eat! Wanru must be tired from the meeting today!"
Su Wanru smiled and said,
"Mom, the weather is cool now, take care of yourself and don't catch a cold. After the New Year, the seasons will change, and this is the time when people get sick the most!"
When Mother Su heard Father Su and Su Wanru say this, she didn't mention calling Yun Duo'er again, fearing she would disrupt Yun Duo'er's work.
In the blink of an eye, the New Year was drawing to a close. Tongtong and Liu Yifeng, along with the gifts prepared in Cainan City, went to pay their New Year's respects to Zhao Dewang.
Zhao Dewang was overjoyed to receive the inkstone. With a wave of his hand, he gave Liu Yifeng a freshly penned calligraphy piece – "May Your Business Prosper and Your Fortune Flourish."
Liu Yifeng was also very happy to receive this return gift and felt honored to receive Zhao Dewang's blessings.
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the festive atmosphere began to fade.
Many young people from Liu Family Village returned to the cities where they worked. Liu Yifeng also started making arrangements for building the villa after the New Year.
Liu Yifeng did not delegate the task of drawing the villa design plans. After discussing with Tongtong and Liu Yifeng,
He decided to have Tongtong draw the design plans.
Originally, Liu Yifeng had only found some reference pictures and wanted Liu Chunsheng and Tongtong to choose a villa architectural style. He never expected Tongtong to happily take on the task.
Liu Yifeng naturally had great confidence in Tongtong's abilities.
Thinking that his own design for the house was also quite good, he entrusted the drawing of the villa design plans to Tongtong.
