304 Urge to beat you
An Xiulan drove to her childhood house. There was a big smile on her face as she was driving home. How long has it been since she was on these roads? She couldn’t help but feel it. She learned how to drive in the USA, got her first car there and finally she was driving to her house. She could have booked a cab but she didn’t. She had an eye on her father’s car for a long time anyway and she got to drive it today.
As she entered the familiar community gate, she smiled at the rush of nostalgia. She showed the permit card and the guards let her enter after scanning it. Although she didn’t live here, her mother had given her a permit card, in case she ever came home.
As the car parked in front of her house, she got down with the widest smile. She didn’t press the doorbell instead inserted the code and directly went in.
“I’m home!” An Xiulan shouted at the top of her lungs.
The poor housekeeper was scared shitless as they heard someone shouting on the doorstep. Meimei ran to see which mad person was shouting at the door. When she saw who it was, she began crying. Literally, she was crying like a baby.
“Oh Meimei, you still cry like a baby, “An Xiulan sighed and went to hug the familiar person. Meimei was the first person she had gotten close to in this world and maybe it was the reason why she was very close to her heart.
“Missy, I miss you so much, “Meimei hugged her and cried her eyes out. Soon all the staff came into the living room to see Meimei crying while hugging An Xiulan. Earlier, only Meimei was crying, then all the old staff began sobbing.
It took An Xiulan half an hour to console the crying people. Currently, she was seated on the sofa while all the old staff was sitting around her and listening to her talk. They had completely forgotten that they had duties to fulfil. To them, nothing was more important than spending time with her. It could be seen from their faces about how much they adored her.
The new staff couldn’t understand what was wrong with these people and carried on with their work.
An Xiulan was fed and entertained so well that she completely forgot that she was supposed to inform her family that she had reached home. So, it was almost evening, ten hours until she was at his house. Her old room was cleaned again and her luggage was set in her bedroom. It was as if she had already lived in this room.
The servants too forget to inform the owners given how happy they were today. She brought gifts for all of them and they were too giddy to remember anything.
It was in the later evening when Gu Yanxi and An Qinyan returned from a business dinner that they noticed that something was different about the air of the mansion. It was glowing for some reason. The staff was smiling and laughing for no reason. They didn’t ask anything because it would be like intruding on their happy moments.
The couple were talking in the living room when the housekeeper Meimei came with an ice cream.
“Madam, would you like some ice cream ?” Meimei asked. She had specially made ice cream for her dear Missy.
“No, “An Qinyan said. She couldn’t help but ask, “What’s up with all of you today? And you are wearing a different style of clothes than you usually do.”
“Am I looking beautiful, madam?” Meimei asked with a shy smile. This beautiful red qipao dress was gifted to her by Missy.
“Yeah…”An Qinyan was confused. Meimei was dressed as if she had to attend a wedding.
“Madam, if you don’t want ice cream. I will just ask Master, “Meimei said and gave the ice cream to Gu Yanx who also refused as he just had dinner.
“Then, I will ask Missy if she wants handmade cassata ice cream, “Meimei said and went away.
“Come back, “Gu Yanxi quickly said. “Who did you say you will give the ice cream to?”
“To Missy, “Meimei said again as if it wasn’t a big deal.
“Which Missy?” Gu Yanxi inquired.
“Master, how many Missy do we have? We only recognise one Missy. We won’t recognise another one even if you ask us. Our loyalty lies with Missy, “Meimei said with a huff. If they brought another girl home and announced that the girl was their new Missy, they would revolt. Although they were servants, they did have some rights, right? In their hearts, there was only one Missy!
“What’s happening here?” Gu Yanxi asked in bewilderment.
“I think I may have an idea, “An Qinyan said and ran to go upstairs. Gu Yanxi ran after her to see what was wrong with everyone at home. As she opened the last door on the second floor, she saw a person sitting in front of the vanity table patting the facemask that she was wearing.
Gu Yanxi and An Qinyan shared a look and sighed. However, they were very angry at this moment.
“An Xiulan!!!!”
The mask fell to the ground and she glanced at the two of them in shock. “I forgot to inform you?”
“I have an urge to give you a beating, “An Qinyan muttered under her breath.
“Mommy, I missed you a lot, “An Xiulan came to hug her mother and began kissing her cheeks as if coaxing an angry child. “Did you not miss me?”
“Stop with your antics already. I’m very angry, “An Qinyan said in a strict tone.
“Uncle, are you angry too?” An Xiulan asked.
“Don’t even get me started, “Gu Yanxi said with a huff.
“Then, I spent all day setting my room in vain, “An Xiulan sighed. “Mom and uncle, help me pack. I will go back.”
“You!!!”
They really wanted to beat her up right now. However, they did no such thing and pulled her for a hug.
