Whether it was Su Ran herself, or “Su Ran” the original owner, neither one of them were familiar with this son. Nonetheless, now that Su Ran had taken over the body and knowing what was going to happen in the future, she couldn’t possibly pretend she didn’t know anything and let a perfectly fine young man of the country turn to the dark side.
Without Su Ran being there, the story arc of “witnessing the mother dying from insults” would not take place, but the banquet was still going to happen. If it wasn’t the death of “Su Ran”, there would be other “highlights” performed by other workers. What if witnessing that still laid a seed in Su Han’s heart that would pave the path of him becoming a twisted individual?
Su Ran wanted to take her son away before the start of the “special event”.
Granted, according to the inertia of the novel, there was a chance that the villain boss of the book would still turn dark for whatever reasons in the next 10 years….
Back to the current time, the taxi driver was surprised by Su Ran’s words.
The girl looked about the same age as his own daughter, but she already has a child? And, judging from her words, the kid was not that young either.
He thought to himself that perhaps this girl was some tutor or nanny for some wealthy family.
The more he thought about it, the more he thought that must be pretty close to the truth. As such, he didn’t say much more to Su Ran for the rest of their way there.
“Miss, we are here. This is as far as I can go. I will have to let you out here,” said the taxi driver as he parked outside the main gate of Dongshan Court.
“Okay, that works.”
After she got out of the car, Su Ran started walking toward the booth by the entrance gate.
“This is private property. Can I help you?”
Naturally, she was stopped by the security guard.
“I’m going home.” Su Ran purposefully put on a very unhappy look as she talked.
Then, before the security guard could say anything else, Su Ran typed in a series of numbers on the screen next to her.
[BEEP — Welcome home.]
And the gate opened on its own.
What else could the security guard possibly say?
He wasn’t blind. He saw the code that she had entered belonged to one of the very important residents there. And, it was the code that only the residents themselves would know, not even their close friends or families.
He thought she looked somewhat familiar. Was she a resident here that had some mishap tonight?
Ahem. As a professional security guard, he would not pry into the resident’s personal lives.

On the other hand, Su Ran had already arrived at the center mansion part following the original owner’s memory.
Almost sixty percent of the wealthy live in Dongshan Court, including the Su’s. This was where “Su Ran” grew up since she was a little child. Naturally, she couldn’t be more familiar with this place.
The first two years after the original owner was banished from the Su’s, she’d still return from time to time to beg for forgiveness. Except she was never let in.
If the original owner hadn’t disappeared for almost ten years and the security guards hadn’t gone through a few batches, she probably wouldn’t even be able to get through the gate.
Luckily, Su Ran only had the original owner’s memories, not her feelings.
Looking at one of the tallest mansions in the center area, Su Ran turned away emotionlessly before heading toward another one on the left-hand side.
The Gu’s, whether it was then or now, was still a place that Su Ran wanted to avoid.
Thinking about her instant son, who was already inside, Su Ran scratched her head with a headache coming on. She lowered her head and picked up her speed marching forward. Naturally, she did not notice the look coming from inside of a car behind her.
