“Chen, are you still upset with me?” Bai Hua asked again.

“Nope,” Nan Chen answered simply.

Bai Hua tried to carry on the conversation, but the awkwardness was too energy-draining.

“Why are you not asking about our life in Tokyo? You dad and I have been away from the country for so many years, shouldn’t you show some concern for our situation abroad?” There was a hint of dissatisfaction in Bai Hua’s voice.

Nan Chen kept quiet.

It was not true that he was not interested in their well-being at all. He had sent people to check out his parents’ situation a few times and got confirmation that they were living comfortably in Tokyo.

However, he did not feel a need to explain himself.

When Bai Hua realized her son was not interested in conversing with her, she stopped talking and looked out of the window.

Flower City had changed a lot over these years when she wasn’t around. Many places looked entirely different from the time when she had left.

Nanshi Corporation’s logo could be seen everywhere, which signified the corporation’s unshakable position in the city.

A wave of depression suddenly hit Bai Hua, as she noted that she was already an outsider to all these. She was no longer a part of the Nanshi Corporation’s success.

The woman was not resigned to her fate.

Since she was back to the country now, she had to do something to recover what she had lost a few years ago.

Even though it would not be an easy feat, she was determined to try.

Silence ensued in the car all the way until they reached their destination.

Bai Hua noticed that they were not at the Nan family’s Commoner Residence.

“Where’s this place?” She asked.
