Huo Ling then took out a stack of old but well-bound sketches from his bag and handed them to Quan Meng.

“This is a stack of Hea Ran’s sketches that you’ve always wanted. It’s thicker than the one the competition organizers have, and it even has an autograph addressed to you.”

Quan Meng’s eyes were red as she took it from Huo Ling’s hands.

There was a new piece of paper on the first page, and the handwriting was very familiar to Quan Meng. It was her idol’s handwriting that she had seen many times.

“Hello, Quan Meng. I’ve seen your work and I think very highly of you. I hope you won’t be discouraged by difficulties and I hope you will become an outstanding jewelry designer soon! – Hea Ran.”

Quan Meng’s tears welled up again. In the past, she was like a small boat adrift in the sea, alone and without a fixed place to return to. However, ever since she met Huo Ling, she felt that she had someone to rely on. This was something she had never felt in her own family.

From that day on, Huo Ling and Shen Xin took turns to accompany Quan Meng, and Quan Meng was also very cooperative in undergoing her treatment.

When she was free, she would ask Aunt Yun to push her to the lawn to get some sun and browse her sketches. Thus, Quan Meng recovered very quickly, and she could be discharged after a week.

In contrast, the Quan family wasn’t so peaceful.

Quan Yi won first place, but the contract she envisaged herself signing did not materialize. Instead, Quan Enterprise’s business was getting worse and worse.

Many companies that had worked with them for many years also proposed to terminate their contracts. Some companies who had never worked with Quan Enterprise before chose to shut their doors when they heard that Quan Enterprise had approached them to discuss collaboration.

This made Quan Xiu very puzzled.

Quan Yi pushed the blame on Quan Meng and took out the video. “Could it be because Younger Sis has been outside fooling around?”

She pretended to be pitiful, but the video made Quan Xiu and Yan Min so angry that they were grinding their teeth.

They immediately called Quan Meng and asked her to come home. They had completely forgotten how they had driven her out. However, they didn’t expect Quan Meng to ignore all their calls completely, which made them even more furious.

“Dad, I just asked someone I am acquainted with in the hospital. Younger Sis will be discharged tomorrow. Should we…” Quan Yi’s eyes rolled around, and a despicable idea came to her mind. Since that girl had been kidnapped once, there was no harm in kidnapping her again. “Why don’t we go and invite her back?”

As a wily old fox who had been in the business world for many years, Quan Xiu naturally understood his daughter’s intentions. Although it was a little inappropriate, it was Quan Meng’s fault for refusing to listen to anything. Therefore, she couldn’t blame them.

“We’ll do as you say!” Quan Xiu nodded.

Coincidentally, the day before Quan Meng was discharged, Huo Ling and Yu Yan went overseas on a business trip. Shen Xin couldn’t pick her up because of some family matters.

In the end, it was Aunt Yun who accompanied Quan Meng and bustled all over the place to settle the discharge procedures.

Quan Xiu asked the driver to park the car in a conspicuous place. He had wanted to put on a loving father and daughter act, but he did not expect Quan Meng to turn around and walk in the other direction when she saw them.

“Stop right there!” Quan Xiu’s expression wasn’t very pleasant, but he didn’t want to lose his temper in public. He looked around and quickly walked to Quan Meng.

Quan Xiu lowered his voice as much as possible so that no one passing by could hear him. “There are many people here. Let’s go over there and talk.” He pointed at the car at the side.

Quan Meng didn’t want to go at first, but when she saw Yan Min in the car and the flowers in her hand, her heart softened.

After all, she had always yearned for her parents’ love. She wasn’t expecting them to pick her up from the hospital and even bring her flowers.

Aunt Yun had wanted to tag along but was stopped by Quan Meng.

“They’re my parents, after all. It’s fine. Wait for me here. I’ll be back as soon as I’m done talking,” Quan Meng said softly.

Quan Meng removed her bag and handed it to Aunt Yun before turning around and walking to the car.

To her surprise, the moment Quan Meng got into the car, the car door was closed and the driver started the car immediately and drove out of the hospital.

When she saw the car leave, Aunt Yun hurriedly tried to follow it but was stopped by the bodyguards who stayed behind.

Just as Aunt Yun was about to shout for help, the bodyguard covered her mouth, knocked her out, and dragged her to one side.

Quan Meng didn’t expect the Quan family to drive the car away straightaway. A sense of foreboding rose in her heart.

“Didn’t you say that we’d only chat?” Quan Meng looked at Quan Xiu in front of her warily. “What are you guys doing?”

“You still have the nerve to say that? Didn’t you think about the consequences that could befall the Quan family before you do anything?”

Quan Meng realized that something wasn’t right and wanted to jump out of the car to escape. After all, there were only two or three burly men in the car other than Quan Xiu and Yan Min.

Yan Min’s earlier pained look for her daughter had also disappeared without a trace.
