Chapter 360: Cousin Jian Yubo
The man did not respond. Instead, he continued to pick up the broken pieces until he had picked up the last one. Then, he got back up.
The man was very tall. He was 1 meter and 87 centimeters in height.
He had a handsome face with a fair complexion. The bridge of his nose was also quite high. He had bright yet deep eyes. However, there was not much expression on his face.
He was always like this. With very little expression on his face, it seemed as though he had facial nerve paralysis.
Not only that, but he gave off a somber and gloomy feeling.
However, he wasnt like this before.
As a child, he was a lively and cheerful boy.
However, after He Yan failed to get her eldest son to be interested in the corporate world, she had poured all of her energy into Jian Yubo.
She wanted her son to become the person that she wanted him to be. And thus, she disciplined him. She also restricted his movements and hit him if he failed to meet her demands.
Under such conditions, Jian Yubos personality gradually changed. He became less talkative, smiled less, and was overall less expressive.
Even so, just like Jian Yumin, Jian Yubo did not choose to go into finance. He refused to do what He Yan had expected him to do.
Instead, he chose to play Go. He became a professional player and won many awards.
Did something happen to you? Jian Yubo asked. His voice was low and unruffled.
Its nothing, He Yan replied. The expression on her face was quite unpleasant.
You sold all the properties under your name, Jian Yubo replied. He spoke as if he knew what had happened.
You How do you know? He Yan asked in surprise. Hadnt her son been busy with the Go tournament?
The way you do things is stupid.
Yubo, I He Yan stammered. She felt humiliated and embarrassed in the face of Jian Yubos accusations.
Ill help you, Jian Yubo said to He Yan.
Yubo What did you say?
He Yan suspected that she had misheard something.
Initially, she thought that her son had returned to mock her. However, he was now saying that he would help her?
Dont you want to get the Jian familys assets? Ill help you.
Jian Yubos tone did not change. He was as calm as the surface of a lake. There was not a single ripple on the surface of that lake.
Yubo, are you serious?
He Yan couldnt believe her ears. She had been begging her sons for so many years, however, none of them had listened to her. None of them had understood her.
And now, Yubo suddenly told her that he was willing to help her?
You didnt do a clean job of framing Jian Yiling.
You You know about that?
Ive already taken care of it for you. I took care of it before Jian Yuncheng and the others had a chance to look into it.
He Yan was shocked for a moment. Then, she became overjoyed: Yubo, youre really willing to help me? Im so happy!
He Yan was overwhelmed with happiness at this moment. All the unhappiness that she had just felt was all gone.
Jian Yubo was expressionless for the entire time he was speaking to He Yan. When he left He Yans study, his hand habitually touched a string of beads that he wore on his left wrist.
The beads were made out of rosewood. However, one of the beads was different from the others.
That bead seemed to be a trinket from a little girl.

Jian Yumin was also present at the press conference.
As he was worried about Yiling, he wore a hat, mask, and scarf to the press conference.
After the press conference, Jian Yumin took the initiative to thank the people from the research institution. He was incredibly glad that they cleared up Jian Yilings name.
Then, he was invited by Cheng Yi to join them upstairs for a celebration party.
As everyone was drinking together, Jian Yumin ended up drinking a little too much.
When Jian Yumin sobered up, he found himself in a hotel room.
He probably had too much to drink yesterday and thus, he didnt remember anything that happened.
However, Jian Yumin didnt take the matter too seriously. Just when he was about to lift his blanket, he turned his head around. Suddenly, he discovered that someone elses head was next to him.
