Upon hearing this, Mo Shiyun replied, “In that situation, anyone else would have done the same thing as well. I just did what I had to do.”

Mo Shiyun knew that she was in a bad situation right now. However, she didn’t want to use that incident to ask for help from someone else.

The man smiled before he glanced at the luggage behind Mo Shiyun and Mo Huiquan. He could easily guess the situation that they were in right now.

The man smiled again before he said, “My Lady has been thinking of you ever since that day. Why don’t you come with me today to visit her? Please help me fulfill my lady’s wishes. You can also see the child that you saved back then.”

The man’s words took into account Mo Shiyun’s self-esteem and ego.

He made sure that Mo Shiyun would not be burdened by any psychological considerations.

However, Mo Shiyun still hesitated for a moment.

After considering her mother’s situation right now, Mo Shiyun ultimately decided to say yes:

“Okay, thank you for your trouble.”

The man politely invited Mo Shiyun onto the limousine and helped them with their luggage.

For Mo Shiyun and her mother, this was the difference between heaven and hell.

Today’s experience had been a rollercoaster for them.

On Sunday, Grandpa Jian decided to attend an orchid exhibition. He decided to bring Jian Yiling along with him.

This was because Grandpa Jian had discovered that his darling had somehow acquired quite a bit of knowledge about growing flowers and plants. In fact, sometimes, she was better than him!

Grandpa Jian had initially only planned to bring Jian Yiling to the orchid exhibition. However, when he left, he somehow ended up taking most of the family with him.

Jian Shuxing, Wen Nuan, Jian Yuncheng, and Jian Yunnao all ended up going.

“Did the Jian company close down or something? Is the business dying?”

Faced with Grandpa Jian’s question, Jian Shuxing explained in a hurry, “No, that’s not the case. Our family business is doing quite well. Lately, sales have increased by 20% compared to the last financial year.”

Grandpa Jian smiled lightly before he said, “Ah, I see. I thought it was because our company had collapsed. I assumed that was the case because it appeared as though all of you had nothing else to do. Otherwise, why would you come and accompany me to an orchid exhibition?”

Upon hearing this, Jian Shuxing’s expression was somewhat embarrassed.

Grandpa Jian hadn’t been kind with his words at all.

However, although Grandpa Jian said such things, he didn’t stop them from following him.

As a result, everyone went to the orchid exhibition together.

At the exhibition, there were many valuable and rare orchid species that were on display.

Jian Yiling and Grandpa Jian were focused on the orchids.

Whenever Grandpa Jian talked about the orchids, Jian Yiling listened to him attentively.

This made Grandpa Jian especially happy. Usually, he felt that no one else in the family understood him. However, his darling was listening to him so patiently about the orchids that he loved.

However, the others that were at the orchid exhibition had different things in their minds.

This was especially true of Jian Yunnao. He barely took his eyes off Jian Yiling.

He followed behind Jian Yiling and just watched her.

Before he had left the Jian Residence, he had prepared the words that he had planned to say to her. However, now that he saw her, he was no longer able to say them.

This left a bitter feeling that could not be explained in words in his heart.

After walking around the exhibition for a while, Grandpa Jian took Jian Yiling to the rest area for some food and drinks.

And thus, Jian Shuxing and the others finally had the opportunity to sit down with Jian Yiling.

Wen Nuan had brought an assortment of desserts for Jian Yiling to eat. These were the desserts that Jian Yiling liked to eat the most.

Jian Yiling said thank you to Wen Nuan. She acted in a very polite manner.

In Wen Nuan’s mind, her daughter was acting too polite. In fact, the politeness made it appear as though there was a certain distance between them.

This undoubtedly made Wen Nuan feel sad.

However, Jian Yiling did not realize this.

At this moment, a familiar person came over.

This person was a friend of Grandpa Jian. He was the CEO of a listed company.
