Wherever You Are, I Will Come to See You

At this moment, nobody cared about Jiang Yuan's feelings of frustration. Ji Ming blinked his starry eyes at Jiang Guo. "Okay, Auntie, please."

Jiang Guo inwardly sighed. Indeed, he was her son, showing the same kind and obedient nature as Jiang Xiaobao. She affectionately patted the boy's head and suggested, "Shall we go to the nearby stone bench to apply the ointment?"

"Okay!"

Seeing this, Jiang Yuan felt a surge of displeasure. She hated that Ji Ming didn't see through the situation, and she felt that Jiang Guo was going too far, going beyond her role as a stranger.

She smiled and approached them, "Miss Caroline, you don't need to trouble yourself with the child's injuries; I'll handle it."

Jiang Guo hadn't spoken yet when Ji Ming took the initiative and calmly said, "Mommy, Auntie Caroline will help me with the ointment."

Jiang Guo knew that there was now a rift between Ji Ming and Jiang Yuan because of what happened earlier. To be honest, she was pleased with their strained relationship. However, she also felt sorry for Ji Ming because she understood that at this moment, he genuinely saw Jiang Yuan as his mother, and her actions had hurt him deeply.

"Ah..." Ji Ming winced slightly, making Jiang Guo snap back to attention. She gazed at him with concern. "Does it hurt? Mommy will blow on it for you, okay?"

Ji Ming gently shook his head. "It doesn't hurt."

The more obedient and sensible Ji Ming was, the more Jiang Guo's heart ached for him. It made her wonder how much suffering he had endured by Jiang Yuan's side over the past six years.

She suppressed her sadness, carefully applied the last adhesive bandage to his wound, and whispered, "You must be careful not to let the wound get wet in the next few days, okay?"

"Okay!"

Jiang Guo smiled faintly, patted his head affectionately once more, and then straightened up. She turned to Ji Yunchen, and the smile on her face was replaced by a more serious expression.

"Mr. Ji, I'd like to talk to you about something concerning the child."

Jiang Guo knew that discussing this issue with Ji Yunchen might cross some boundaries and even raise suspicions on his part. But for the sake of the child's physical and mental well-being, she couldn't care less. Regardless, she was determined to ensure Ji Ming's basic physical and mental health before bringing him back into her life.

Furthermore, Ji Yunchen genuinely cared for Ji Ming. So, when he heard Jiang Guo's words, he responded directly, "Miss Jiang, please speak your mind. I'm open to learning."

"I don't dare to presume to teach," Jiang Guo said in a calm voice, but her gaze towards Ji Yunchen was filled with a chilling resolve. "Mr. Ji, I should have mentioned that protecting a child is the most basic responsibility of parents. This goes beyond physical health; it extends to their mental well-being as well."

"Don't wait until the child is deeply wounded to regret your choices. By then, it might be too late!"

She continued, "I understand that, given your current social status, you may have certain privileges and can use them to make things more convenient. However, children are still too young. They haven't formed the right values yet and don't understand the consequences of abusing such powers. So, I suggest that until the child has fully grown, it's better not to expose him to these things too early."

Jiang Yuan glared at Jiang Guo, feeling that she was interfering too much. Teaching Ji Yunchen how to raise children? Who did she think she was?

Moreover, it wasn't even her child. Why was she being so attentive? Did she want to attract Ji Yunchen's attention and compete with her for the position of Mrs. Ji? The more Jiang Yuan thought about the events of the past few days, the more she believed in her guess.

She felt a chill in her heart, especially when she saw Ji Yunchen nodding seriously and agreeing with Jiang Guo's words. "Miss Jiang, rest assured, I will take note of this in the future."

Seeing Ji Yunchen's favorable response, Jiang Guo's expression softened slightly, and she continued, "So, if there are any issues in the future, Mr. Ji, feel free to reach out to me. After all, I am a parent as well, so I have some understanding of matters related to children."

Ji Yunchen nodded.

The atmosphere between the two of them was very harmonious. However, Jiang Yuan couldn't sit still any longer. She was now convinced that this woman wanted to snatch Ji Yunchen away from her!

With this thought in mind, Jiang Yuan's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. She spoke with a smile on her face and casually inserted herself into the conversation between Ji Yunchen and Jiang Guo, "I'm truly grateful to Miss Caroline for her help today. Otherwise, I would have misunderstood Ming Ming. Just thinking about it fills me with guilt."

Jiang Guo glanced at her indifferently and said, "If Miss Jiang took the time to get to know Ji Ming every day, such misunderstandings wouldn't occur."

Jiang Yuan, "..."

What an insufferable person! She forced a smile and readily agreed, "You're absolutely right. I'll make sure to be more attentive to Ming Ming in the future and make sure such incidents won't happen again."

Jiang Guo had no interest in pandering to Jiang Yuan any further. She sneered and simply ignored her.

She lowered her head to look at Ji Ming, her eyes filled with affection. "Ming Ming, Auntie has some things to take care of , so I have to go home now. We can spend time together next time, okay?"

Ji Ming tightly held onto Jiang Guo's hand, reluctant to let go. He asked with a touch of longing, "Will we meet again, Beautiful Auntie?"

Jiang Guo smiled gently. "Of course, as long as you want to see me, no matter where I am, I will come to see you!"

Ji Ming's eyes lit up. "Really?"

"Absolutely!"

"Then, Beautiful Auntie, please give me your phone number so that we can stay in touch."

Jiang Guo had no reason to refuse. "Sure."

Jiang Guo handed her contact number to Ji Ming, who immediately saved it and added a note beside her name as "Beautiful Auntie."

Seeing this, Jiang Guo chuckled softly and said, "My name is Jiang Guo. You can just save it as 'Auntie Jiang Guo.'"

"You're Jiang Guo?"

On the side, Jiang Yuan's face turned pale, and she looked at Jiang Guo with a fearful expression.

Jiang Guo glanced at her with a faint smile and asked, "Is there a problem?"

"No, of course not!"

Jiang Yuan seemed to realize that she had spoken too impulsively and paused to ease the situation before continuing, "I'm just a bit surprised."

"What's so surprising?" Jiang Guo raised an eyebrow with a meaningful look. "But it seems that Miss Jiang and I are quite fated. I just returned to the country and met you. Plus, we both have the same surname. If I didn't know my mother only had one daughter, I might have thought we were sisters..."
