A second after Liang Mumu entered the residence, Jiang Wangui, who had already washed up after her morning run and switched into casual clothes, happened to walk down from the stairs.
Despite being in the middle of changing into indoor slippers, Liang Mumu immediately straightened her body and obediently greeted, “Morning, Auntie Lin.”
Jiang Wangui nodded with a slight smile, “Morning.”
After returning the greeting, she turned to a servant by the side and asked, “Is breakfast ready?”
Servant: “Yes, Madam.”
Jiang Wangui nodded. She instructed a servant to call Lin Jiayi down for dinner before turning to Liang Mumu, “Would you like to have some breakfast too?”

A hint of curiosity surfaced on Jiang Wangui’s eyes, but on the whole, her expression remained composed and dignified, not revealing too much of her inner emotions, “Where are you planning to bring me to?”
“This…” Resembling an innocent child, Liang Mumu tilted her head slightly, and a mysterious smile emerged on her lips. “… I can’t tell you that right now, Auntie Lin. This is a surprise which Yaoyao prepared for you, and I’m only inviting you over on her instructions.”
“A surprise from Yaoyao…” Jiang Wangui muttered as she lowered her head to take a look at the time. She quickly calculated whether it would affect the appointment she had with a client later at ten before responding with an affirmative nod. “… Alright. Wait here for a moment, I’ll head up and change my clothes.”
While Jiang Wangui was halfway up the stairs, she happened to meet face-to-face with the ‘still drowsy but forcefully awoken by her mother to have breakfast’ Lin Jiayi.
Jiang Wangui took a glance at her daughter and said, “Yaoyao asked Mumu to bring me somewhere. Do you want to come along?”
“An invitation from my Yaoyao?” Lin Jiayi was immediately jolted awake. “I’m coming too! It’s been more than ten days since I last saw my Yaoyao and I already miss her dearly…”

Right after saying those words, Lin Jiayi turned around and overtook her mother in less than three seconds, charging right back into her bedroom to change her clothes.
The three of them left in Jiang Wangui’s car, which was driven by her personal chauffeur.
The road conditions were still alright on a Sunday morning, so it didn’t take them long to arrive at the hotel Shi Yao was staying at.
Liang Mumu coyly took Jiang Wangui’s arm as she showered praises on the latter, saying that she looked even younger than before and that she wanted to be as capable as her when she grew up. At the same time, they took the elevator up to the floor with Shi Yao’s room.
Walking straight to the door of Shi Yao’s room, Liang Mumu pressed the doorbell.

It took roughly half a minute before Shi Yao’s voice called out from inside, “Who is it?”
“Yaoyao, it’s me…” Liang Mumu replied.
The door quickly opened, exposing a messy-haired and dirty-faced Shi Yao in front of Jiang Wangui and Lin Jiayi. She was dressed in a bathrobe, and there was a strong scent of alcohol on her.
“Ah? Yaoyao, why haven’t you tidied yourself up yet?” Seeing Shi Yao’s current state, Liang Mumu immediately exclaimed in shock.
Seemingly having yet to grasp the situation before her, Shi Yao looked at Liang Mumu in confusion before she glanced at Jiang Wangui and Lin Jiayi. With a confused tone, she asked, “Auntie Lin, Sis Jiayi, why—”
But before Shi Yao could finish her sentence, Liang Mumu had already interjected, “Yaoyao, you should quickly wash up and get ready. Did you forget? Today is Sunday—Mother’s Day! Yesterday, you dragged me around for the entire day just to decorate this room. Didn’t you want to give Auntie Lin a surprise and wish her a Happy Mother’s Day…”
