Gu Jinlan returned to the Ye family and found that the door was locked from the inside and could not be opened after entering the password.

She rang the doorbell for a while but no one came to open the door for her.

So she called Aunt Wang and asked her to come out and open the door for her.

Aunt Wang's voice was very low on the other end of the phone. "Miss, I'm sorry. The gentleman and the mistress have told us that whoever opens the door for you will be fired."

"The master blamed me for not stopping you from rushing into Miss Jingwan's room yesterday, and he has warned me not to help you again."

"Miss, my family is short of money recently, and I really can't lose this job. I'm sorry..."

"It's okay." Gu Jinlan felt a little aggrieved, but she didn't blame Aunt Wang.

Aunt Wang added, "The old lady doesn't know yet. Call her. She will stand on your side."

"Don't disturb grandma's rest." Gu Jinlan said and hung up the phone.

She knew that her grandmother would definitely open the door for her and help her scold Ye Hongyu and Fang Yue.

But it's already past eleven o'clock, and usually grandma would have gone to bed at this time.

Grandma has been in poor health recently and she didn't want to disturb her while she was resting.

I don’t want my grandma to get angry over such a trivial matter.

Ye Hongyu and the others locked her outside the door because they were sure that she would have some concerns.

Gu Jinlan smiled coldly, thinking that this would lock her out?

too naive!

She went around to the backyard and slowly lit a cigarette for herself.

At this time, a WeChat message was received on the mobile phone, which was sent by Shi Ye.

【Teacher Gu, are you home yet? 】

Gu Jinlan looked at the phone screen.

She didn't bring her ID card, so she couldn't stay at the hotel tonight.

Now in Haicheng, the only place she could stay overnight seemed to be the home of this terrifying man.

This thought flashed through Gu Jinlan's mind, but she immediately shook her head away.

Shi Ye's concern for her was simply out of his gentlemanly upbringing.

They were not close friends, so how could she go to the trouble of disturbing him?

She has been through all these years alone.

When she was most desperate and helpless, she never expected anyone to lend her a helping hand or give her a little warmth.

Why does she have expectations of him now just because he gave her a little warmth?

Gu Jinlan didn't like this feeling.

She hated putting her hopes on other people.

I hate having expectations and dependence on others.

She frowned slightly and replied.

【Thank you Mr. Shi for your concern. I am home now. 】

In fact, she has been homeless since five years ago.

After burning down a cigarette, Gu Jinlan kicked off her high heels, rolled up her skirt, and nimbly climbed up the wall with her bare hands. Like a nimble cat, she climbed directly into her bedroom through the third-floor window.

-

The next day, Gu Jinlan sat at the dining table early.

She is going to Shi's house to pick up Ranran today. There may be traffic jams on the road during the morning rush hour, so she has to leave early.

Ye Hongyu, Fang Yue and Ye Jingwan came to the restaurant downstairs and were shocked when they saw Gu Jinlan.

"How did you come back?!" Fang Yue was surprised.

She warned the servants at home not to open the door for Gu Jinlan.

When I woke up just now, I checked the information of the electronic door lock and no one opened the door.

Gu Jinlan ate breakfast leisurely and smiled, "You don't know? I know magic, I came in through the wall."

Seeing the smile on Gu Jinlan's face, Ye Hongyu was furious, "You hurt Wanwan like that last night! And you still have the nerve to smile?"

Gu Jinlan glanced at Ye Jingwan.

What do you mean she harmed Ye Jingwan?

It seems that Ye Jingwan has exaggerated and distorted the facts.

She was too lazy to explain, and it was useless to explain.

Gu Jinlan crossed his legs, broke off a small piece of bread and put it into his mouth, "Seeing you guys are unhappy, I am happy, of course I have to smile."

She used to naively think that as long as she was obedient and sensible, they would still love her even if she was not their biological daughter.

Later I found that no matter what I did, they would not be satisfied.

They resented her existence, which caused their own daughter to live a hard life in the countryside for 19 years.

They only felt sorry for their own daughter Ye Jingwan.

No matter what Ye Jingwan did wrong, she was still a popular commodity in their eyes.

No wonder the song goes “A child with a mother is like a treasure, a child without a mother is like a weed.”

Now she won't lick their faces to please them anymore.

Especially when she thought of her poor children, she wanted to take revenge on them!

Now she no longer expected their love, and even when she saw them unhappy, she could still feel a little happy.

But no matter how unhappy they were, it was not even one-tenth as painful as she felt when she lost her child.

Ye Jingwan was about to say something when Old Madam Ye came to the restaurant.

She quickly pretended to be well-behaved and gentle and sat down.

Ye Hongyu and Fang Yue no longer confronted Gu Jinlan. They sat down and started to eat breakfast.

Madam Ye looked at Gu Jinlan with a loving gaze, "Lanlan, I heard from Wanwan last night that you went to work at Aolington."

"Yeah, I went there last week."

"How did you get in?"

As one of the school directors of Aolinda College, Mrs. Ye knew how high Aolinda College’s requirements for teachers were.

The minimum educational requirement for teachers is a master's degree.

The reason why she didn't help Ye Jingwan make the arrangements before was not because she had a prejudice against Ye Jingwan, but because she really couldn't use connections.

Although Ye Jingwan graduated from a well-known art college, she only had a bachelor's degree.

Gu Jinlan said, "It was Director Jiang who invited me to go."

Madam Ye was surprised, "Director Jiang!? How did you two know each other?"

Director Jiang is the largest shareholder of Aolinda, and he has the final say on Aolinda's affairs.

He is known for being tough!

It was he who set the strict rules and regulations of Aolinton.

Gu Jinlan said: "I didn't want to be a kindergarten teacher, but he kept calling me, and I couldn't refuse, so I agreed to help."

"As for how we met, that's a long story. I'll tell you slowly when I have time."

Ye Hongyu sneered and said disdainfully: "What extraordinary ability do you have that he invited you so many times? Did you cheat and get a fake degree? If you are exposed in the future, don't say you know us. Our Ye family can't afford to lose face like this!"

Fang Yue and Ye Jingwan didn't say anything, but they also looked unconvinced, thinking that if Gu Jinlan was not lying, then he must be cheating.

"So many breakfasts can't shut you up?" Old Madam Ye glared at Ye Hongyu.

When he looked at Gu Jinlan again, his eyes softened again, "So what are you doing in Aolington?"

Gu Jinlan said: "Mental health teacher."

Old Madam Ye was shocked.

She guessed that Gu Jinlan might be an art teacher or music teacher in Aolington.

The only thing I didn’t expect was that she would be a mental health teacher.

Because she had serious mental problems in the past, she was sent abroad.

Is this the result of long-term illness becoming a doctor?

Seeing the strange look on Old Madam Ye's face, Gu Jinlan said, "Don't worry, Grandma. I won't mislead the students."

Old Madam Ye smiled quickly, not wanting Gu Jinlan to think that she cared about her past illness.

"Of course grandma believes in you. You've always done well in whatever you want to do since you were little! I was worried that you wouldn't be able to adapt after returning to China. Now that you have a job, your life will be more fulfilling. That's great. You should have told me earlier."

Gu Jinlan explained: "I didn't tell grandma before because I didn't plan to do this job for a long time. I just went to help out temporarily because someone asked me to do it."

Hearing what Gu Jinlan said, Ye Jingwan felt so sour that she almost burst into tears, and she wanted to crush the cup of milk in her hand.

She had tried every possible means to get this job, but Gu Jinlan acted so indifferent.

Gu Jinlan must have said this on purpose just to irritate her!

"Grandma, I'm full. I'm leaving now."

Gu Jinlan stood up and took a few steps. Suddenly, he thought of something and turned back to look at Ye Jingwan and the others: "Oh, by the way, there is something I have to remind you of."
