Qiao Nian suddenly wanted to laugh. The corners of her mouth curled up into a mocking smile. She was quite frustrated and didn’t explain too much to Jiang Zongjin. She only said, “That’s my friend. I haven’t seen her in a long time. She happened to be in Beijing on business, so we arranged to meet.

“As for Half Mountain Clubhouse…”

Qiao Nian’s tone was dry, suppressing her aggressiveness and coldness. “I’m drinking water with my friend in the clubhouse.”

“I know. I believe you.” Jiang Zongjin could hear the girl’s cold tone on the other end of the phone and quickly said, “I never suspected you. It’s your freedom to play with your friends. I didn’t want to interfere with you. It’s just that Jiang Yao… He called your grandfather. I just wanted to tell you.”

Jiang Zongjin’s tone was helpless. He asked her carefully, “Nian Nian, why don’t you come back first?”

Qiao Nian didn’t speak. The light in her eyes darkened.

Jiang Zongjin was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable, so he quickly explained, “Don’t think too much. Your grandfather and I believe you. It’s just that Jiang Yao has been staying at your grandfather’s place. Your grandfather’s health is not good. If he doesn’t leave, your grandfather won’t be able to rest. I just asked if you have time to come over.

“Nian Nian, don’t worry. Just come back. No one can bully you with daddy here!”

Qiao Nian nodded and hung up. She put down the phone and said to Jian Jin, “That’s all for today. I have to go back.”

“Now?” Jian Jin stood up with her and looked at her worriedly. “What happened at your house?”

Qiao Nian recalled the call. Her good mood seemed to be covered by a layer of frost. Her eyes darkened slightly, and she did not elaborate. “Nothing. It’s just a few clowns causing trouble.”

“How dare a clown cause trouble in front of you?” Jian Jin narrowed her eyes and her expression was cold. “They’re tired of living!”

“I don’t know. They live quite comfortably. I’ll go back and find out what they want.”

Qiao Nian’s face was expressionless and cold. Thinking of something again, she suddenly stopped and turned around. “By the way, there’s no need to discuss the business you just mentioned. We’re not cooperating. There’s no need!”

She might have considered it because Jiang Zongnan was doing well as an elder before Jiang Yao and the others caused trouble.

But there was no need now.

Tang Wanru was right. Since the Jiang family had already split up, they were two families.

She wasn’t a saint to the point of helping people who caused trouble around her day and night for free, and the reason she helped them was only that they were so-called blood-related.

But there was no need if that was how blood relations were used!

“You mean the matter about the cooperation with the Jiang Corporation?”

“Yes, cancel the cooperation.”

Seeing the girl’s cold att.i.tude, Jian Jin realized what was going on and didn’t ask further. Or perhaps this matter wasn’t worth asking. She said directly, “Okay, I’ll go back and inform them that they don’t have to cooperate with the Jiang Corporation anymore…”

…

In a sanatorium in Beijing.

Jiang Zongjin had just finished his call when he b.u.mped into Jiang Yao.

Jiang Yao’s eyes were a little evasive and guilty at first upon seeing him, but he seemed to calm down a moment later. He frowned and blocked Jiang Zongjin’s path. “Uncle, I have something to tell you.”

Jiang Zongjin stopped in his tracks expressionlessly. His expression was cold. “Speak. Hurry up and tell me. I still have to go in and accompany your grandfather.”
