Ling Qingan was well aware that the 'home' Wen Jichen spoke of was not the old Ling Family, nor was it her current temporary residence, but instead the place where they once lived together —
Platinum Lanting.
It might have once been her home, or perhaps it never was!

Su Ran was never someone who liked to participate in others' affairs, no one has the right or power to judge others' pasts. "Don't persuade others to be kind without enduring their hardships" — some people talk endlessly, imposing their detached observer status lightly onto those involved, not knowing that what seems trivial to them is an indelible scar to others.
Thus, even though she considered Ling Qingan a friend, she wouldn't involve herself with her past or judge her actions. To Ling Qingan and Wen Jichen, she was merely a bystander.
