Not long after Lu Sheng left the residential complex, Wang Ruojing hurried after him.

"Are we going to the other side next?"

"Of course." Lu Sheng nodded.

Wang Yumin's words and actions had already made the balance clear.

Between his new family and old family, which mattered more was obvious at a glance.

"If you want to go to your mother's place, I don't think you need to go any farther." Wang Ruojing stopped.

Lu Sheng halted as well and turned back to look at her.

Wang Ruojing pointed toward a café not far away.

Through the glass window beside the café, a gray-haired elderly woman stood up from afar and looked toward Lu Sheng.

"I called her in advance. She's been waiting here for a long time." Wang Ruojing shrugged. "Before you came, I'd been talking to her about you."

Lu Sheng recognized the old woman at once. He had seen her in the information he had obtained.

She was Wang Mu's biological mother.

Compared with his ordinary, unremarkable father, Wang Yumin, this mother's life had been somewhat more winding.

Although she had also started a new family, unlike Wang Yumin, the son she had borne in that new family had died young. Later, due to an accident, she and her current husband lost their ability to have children.

In other words, Wang Mu was now her only son.

Lu Sheng looked from afar at Wang Mu's mother's uneasy, apprehensive face and fell silent for a moment.

"Let's go. Since we're here, we may as well talk."

Wang Ruojing hurriedly nodded.

The two walked slowly into the café, one after the other.

They followed the aisle to Wang Mu's mother's table.

"Jingjing. You... you're here...!?" Wang Mu's mother was an elderly woman dressed with a certain air of wealth.
