Chapter 713: Decision

Guan Tang nodded slightly. Aunty, I understand. Dont worry, Ill do my best to help you.

Guan Ning looked at Guan Tang and said, Helping me is also helping yourself. Our surname is Guan, and were family.

Guan Tang nodded again.

After Guan Ning left, Guan Tang heaved a sigh of relief. Everyone wanted to use her; she was born to be a chess piece. At this time, she felt much more at ease. It had been so long, but the police did not come to look for her. There was no movement at all, indicating that Jiahui did not report the matter to the police. What she was most concerned about was Jiahuis whereabouts and how Jiahui had escaped. There were no traces at all; it was as though everything had been a dream.

Jiang Jin looked at her four grandchildren, Mu Chen; Cheng Che; Song Ning; and Jiahui, with a solemn expression on her face. After listening to their plan, she found it hard to remain calm. She asked Cheng Che, Youre going to pretend to agree to return to the Yin family?

Yes, Grandma, Cheng Che replied honestly.

Why pretend? Jiang Jin asked.

Cheng Ches smile vanished from his face as he said, Grandma, I know you hope Ill acknowledge my family, but after interacting with them a few times, I always feel that they have ulterior motives. I dont like being schemed against. I have no interest in the Yin familys a.s.sets, but I need to know what theyre scheming.

Jiang Jin thought about it for a moment before she finally nodded. Then, she looked at Mu Chen.

Upon seeing this, Mu Chen said gently, Grandma, dont worry. Ill always keep an eye on him.

Jiang Jin nodded before she looked at Jiahui and said, Its just that Jiahui will have to suffer. The Yin family insists on pus.h.i.+ng Guan Tang to Cheng Che. Im worried that Jiahui wont be a match for those black-hearted people. After all, Jiahui comes from a scholarly family; shes too innocent.

Jiang Jin sighed softly as she looked at the two couples in front of her. She continued to say, Everyone has their own paths to walk. No matter how much I love you and how much my heart aches for you, I cant do anything to help you. At my age, I can only hope not to bring trouble to you. However, I hope that youll tell me about your plans. Dont hide things from me. If theres anything I can do to help, Ill be more than happy to help.

Song Ning smiled as she hugged Jiang Jins arm and said, Grandma, dont worry. How can we exclude you? Youre our backbone! Youre the only one who can give us advice when were in trouble.

Jiang Jin smiled. Ningning is still the best at coaxing people. You and Jiahui have to take care of yourselves. I dont want any more instances of kidnapping. My heart cant take it.

The four of them chatted and laughed with Jiang Jin. This kind of happiness was something most families could not imagine.

Jiahui smiled as she asked, Should we find a suitable occasion for me to come out and scare Guan Tang?

Cheng reached out to stroke Jiahuis hair as he said, Well definitely deal with her. Just scaring her is letting her off too easily.

Jiahui smiled. Alright, Ill listen to you. If you ask me to go east, Ill never go west!

Mu Chen and Song Ning laughed, finding Cheng Che and Jiahuis interaction amusing.

Sometimes hards.h.i.+ps were not completely bad. For example, after this kidnapping incident, Cheng Che and Jiahuis relations.h.i.+p seemed to have grown even stronger than before. It seemed like they had both clearly seen their feelings for each other.
