Upon hearing Ning Zitong's call, a sense of joy welled up in the woman's heart.
She… succeeded!
"Yuan?"
Mu Shaoqian looked at the woman in the floral dress not far away and called out the same name.
That face, that long hair, that seemingly obedient demeanor…
"Mom, big brother, I'm back."
Still speaking in a soft voice, the woman took steps toward her past.
Ning Zitong shivered, and her expression shifted slightly; the joy and surprise that had adorned her face moments ago had completely vanished.
"Mom…"
"Qianshui? Is it you, Qianshui?"
Ning Zitong questioned her with a scrutinizing gaze.
Mu Qianshui froze mid-step, her smile dissipating instantly. Her already stiff face turned even more rigid and awkward!
Although cosmetic surgery starts to heal after about a week, complete recovery takes around three months.
She had been impatient and rushed back after just over half a month.
