But the first time Li Zheyu and Xiao Rou met, Xiao Rou was willing to give up his position as an assistant at a large company, and had instead stealthily become Li Zheyu's follower. However, in the short span of three years, Xiao Rou had busily managed the company for Li Zheyu, and finally achieved impressive results.

Xiao Rou still remembered that night when he signed the contract with the largest internet app in the United States. In order to celebrate, Li Zheyu brought all of the executives of his company to the roof of the luxurious building to open a champagne bottle to celebrate. It was also the same night that the drunk Li Zheyu kissed Xiao Rou on the cheek and thanked her.

Li Zheyu probably never thought that it would just be this one kiss, and this extremely ordinary "thank you", would actually make Xiao Rou follow him for so long with his heart and soul.

Instead of giving Xiao Rou and his assistant time to chat, Gong Pingan sat down and immediately began his new mission regarding the two of them. Xiao Rou and his assistant only looked at each other and smiled, then quickly returned to their work area.

In just an afternoon's time, Gong Pingan had raised her head from the pile of plans, while her assistant was still quickly calculating at the side. Although Xiao Rou knew about her reputation in the industry, she had never thought that Xiao Rou, who had not been in contact with such work for five years, would actually work so well as her assistant.

That night, both Gong Pingan and Xiao Rou slept very late. This was the first time they felt that they were without their children by their side. To these two mothers, they were more or less worried about them.

As Gong Pingan looked at Xiao Rou's sleeping appearance, he couldn't help but think of Li Zheyu and Ou Hanting. These two men were both such important people in his life, but now that they had left and left him with such a huge trouble, Gong Pingan couldn't help but sigh helplessly. He could only hope that the two children still had a chance of winning.

When Gong Pingan woke up on the second day, the prison staff had already called him. Gong Pingan was a little surprised, but the police officer still told him with a smile, "Ruo Linglong said that she wants to turn herself in, you can come over to see her."

Gong Pingan hung up the phone and then quickly woke up Xiao Rou. Seemingly like they were already used to housewife's days, and had not yet developed the rhythm of working, Gong Pingan and Xiao Rou quickly changed their clothes and drove to the prison. In the morning, there weren't many cars on the streets, and the entire street seemed exceptionally desolate.

Gong Pingan and Xiao Rou did not speak much along the way. Although Xiao Rou had always wanted to remain calm, he could not help but keep yawning, and Gong Pingan knew that Xiao Rou had worked rather hard last night, and had directly come over to work without even a delay. However, there was nothing he could do about it right now.

By the time Xiao Rou and Gong Ping rushed to the prison, Ruo Linglong had already finished his inspection. When Ruo Linglong saw that Gong Pingan and Gong Ping actually had a rare smile on their faces, "How did it go?"

Gong Pingan couldn't help but ask with concern when he saw Ruo Linglong. His face still had the usual ice-cold smile, "Not bad, you made me wait here."

Gong Pingan nodded his head in relief, but he still looked worried, "Are you reliable here? Now that the truth has been revealed, the Duke's son will never let her live again. " Gong Pingan nodded, "I already asked the Warden to prepare another room for Ruo Linglong. Of course, the price won't be that easy."

It turned out Gong Pingan did not know that living in the prison required a different payment. still had thirty dollars a week to pay for her living quarters, but Gong Pingan gritted her teeth and decided to rent a single room for her. The room also cost thirty dollars, but it was the same for the whole night, she could only pray that Ruo Linglong could come out quickly, so she would not throw more money into this damned place.

Of course Ruo Linglong understood their intentions, it was just that right now, Ruo Linglong was already preparing to get out of prison, "Gong Pingan, do you still remember the box under Grandfather's bedside?"

"A box?" Gong Pingan looked at Ruo Linglong with a puzzled expression. Ruo Linglong nodded and said to Gong Pingan in a serious manner, "When I originally wanted to leave Taiwan, I wanted to take that box with me. However, Grandfather hid that box very well.

"What's the use of that box?" Ruo Linglong asked somewhat puzzledly, as he nodded his head and said quietly, "There is a secret to your background inside."

"My birth?" Gong Pingan was even more confused. He nodded and spoke with a serious tone, "You need to know that the only thing that can save me right now is that box."

"Is the box you're talking about made of wood, the little strip?" Gong Pingan vaguely remembered that Ning Zhishan had once given this box to her, but after he returned to England, he completely forgot about this matter. Ruo Linglong nodded and then said smilingly, "Do you know why I suppressed you so much when I was young?"

Gong Pingan shook his head in confusion, but in the end, Ruo Linglong still said it out loud, "It's because I had secretly opened this box before, that's why I didn't like you."

After that, the three of them chatted for a while longer before Gong Pingan and Xiao Rou left the prison. On the way, Xiao Rou finally could not hold back and asked, "What exactly is that box's secret?"

Gong Pingan shook his head, "The last time I went to Taiwan, mother gave me this, but after I came back I was busy with company matters so I did not see it." Right now, Gong Pingan was still a little surprised in her heart. Seemingly knowing that there was another possibility in her background, she wasn't really that happy in her heart, she only felt that it was a little unexpected.

Indeed, she didn't understand from the start why the old man had to pretend that her identity was fake like this, and why it should be normal for the Ruo Family to claim an orphan as their power. Why did the old man insist that she was his son's illegitimate daughter outside?

In Gong Pingan's opinion, these things should have long been forgotten with the passage of time. However, when Ruo Linglong brought it up again, her heart was more or less filled with bewilderment and fear for the future.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine." Xiao Rou seemed to be able to see that's nervousness was comforting her in a low voice, "Ruo Linglong said just now, only with your identity can you help her leave. If that's the case, you don't have to worry about this at all."

When I saw my future, I actually didn't seem to be as simple as I thought it would be. I used to think that I should be very strong, but in reality, I was very weak, so weak that I didn't even dare to face these kinds of things. Just who am I?

Xiao Rou could not help but sigh as well. She understood how much pressure Gong Pingan was under during this period of time, but she could only be a spectator, regardless of what happened to Gong Pingan, all of that was because of her, and only she could take care of it. Previously, there were too many people who would protect her, but Gong Pingan no longer had a hard shell, what remained was only her weakness.
