Chapter 324
After Guan Xuefei left, only then did Master Guan look lovingly at Clara and smiled, “Clara, that person of your sister’s nature is boring, you should be more responsible for everything, don’t bother with her.”
Clara smiled good-naturedly, “Of course, we’re a family after all, harmony is most important.”
The old man nodded appreciatively, which was why he didn’t say anything and let Butler Chen push him away.
Jenny was watching in disbelief.
“Tsk, how do you think this Clara plays around, always the same old tricks?Pretending to be soft and weak, acting like a virtuous woman, but she repeatedly tried and got her way every time!”
Biden Lu sneered.
“Probably most people in this world look at people with their eyes, not their hearts.”
Jenny raised his eyebrows.
She turned her eyes to Biden Lu and smiled, “Then I wonder if our Grand President Lu, uses his eyes or his heart when looking at people?”
Biden Lu lowered his eyes, a wicked smile curving his lips.
“I use my eyes when I look at others, but only my heart when I look at you.”
I said, taking her hand and pressing her palm against his chest.
“Listen, it’s happy for you!”
Jenny’s inexplicably small face flushed, failing to tease, but instead being teased herself, she even withdrew her hand.
Giving him a look, “Rascal!”
I said, swiping past him and hurrying inside.
Biden Lu, who could rarely make his young wife blush, burst out laughing and followed along.
Jenny felt that it was better to get to the bottom of this matter anyway.
Lest you get shady someday and know what’s going on.
And to find out about this, it’s really simple, just ask Jiaki Guan for advice.
Guan Ji knew of their previous relationship and knew in his heart that it was impossible to lie to Jenny about this, so there was no need to lie at all.
When Jenny Jing and Biden Lu found Guan Ji Ming together, the other party just happened to come out of the tea room after talking with Gu Changhai.
Seeing them, he was slightly stunned, then smiled, “Ah Shen, Jenny, you guys aren’t playing in the front hall, why are you here?”
When Biden Lu didn’t say anything, Jenny Jing smiled, “We were walking in the garden, and we didn’t realize we were here.”
She said, looking over at Gu Changhai.
Gu Changhai also saw her, but the two didn’t know each other well, so he only nodded his head.
Gu Changhai smiled at Biden Lu and said, “Lu Shao has recently acquired several large enterprises one after another, and the movement has made a lot of noise, so it can be called young talent.”
Biden Lu’s face was colorless, and he said in a light voice, “The Gu family is in politics, and the Lu family is in business, and they have always been well water, but I never thought that Uncle Gu would be so concerned about our Lu Clan.”
Gu Changhai choked a bit at his words.
Followed by two awkward laughs.
“We’re at least friends of the world, so it’s not surprising that we know, but don’t get me wrong, Uncle Gu doesn’t mean anything else, he just wants to praise you purely.”
Biden Lu faintly held the corner of his lips.
“In that case, thank you Uncle Gu for the compliment.”
The Gu family and the Guan family, although they hadn’t torn each other apart in the open, they had secretly confronted each other not once or twice.
They knew all of this by heart, so it was not appropriate for them to talk any more
Words.
Gu Changhai and Guan Jiming said to each other and left.
Only then did Guan Ji Ming turned back and said to Biden Lu and Jenny Jing, “You two came over to find me, you want to ask me something, right?”
Jenny didn’t hide it and nodded.
Off Ji Ming smiled.
“I expected it, and it doesn’t hurt, it’s good to get this out of the way, so you guys come with me.”
With that, he walked ahead and led the two into the tea room.
Master Guan loved tea, as the tea room in the old Guan family home was decorated with extra elegance and style.
Antique shades, even the tea table in front of the use of ancient sandalwood, people sitting there, tea is not yet bubble, will first have a kind of floating valley owes the feeling of fairy.
Three people seated, off Ji Ming took the tea out, while personally making tea, while saying: “I knew you guys were coming, but did not expect this moment to come, so many people outside, you at least give me some face, although many people see out of this thing, but in front of the old man, no one can say, can hold back and wait for you guys to come to me to say, look at the joke!”
Jenny Jing smiled, “Since Uncle Guan Erjun knows we’re coming to you to say, he still dares to lead Clara to Kyoto, so he seems to be very confident.”
Guan Ji Ming frowned slightly and looked up at her.
Next to him, Biden Lu’s face was expressionless, his fingers unconsciously playing with the ring on his ring finger, his eyes somewhat cold.
Guan Ji Ming looked at her, then at Biden Lu, paused for a few seconds, and finally sighed.
“Forget it, you two are clearly raising hell, so I can’t hide it from you anymore.”
He said, getting up and pouring a cup of tea for each of them and sitting down again, before saying, “Clara is indeed not Wan’s child.”
Jenny was slightly stunned.
Although this outcome had long been anticipated, Guan Ji Ming was still not surprised when he actually said the words.
Guan Ji Ming intoned, “This matter is known to everyone but me, my wife, my brother, and the rest of the Guan family, and we came to an agreement to make the old man happy in these remaining days, so it doesn’t matter if Clara is Xiaowan’s child or not, as long as she resembles him.”
He paused for two seconds and continued, “And if there is anyone else in the world who knows the whereabouts of that child, I’m afraid it’s only Clara.”
Jenny was startled, some not understanding what he meant.
But for that, it seems that Guan Jiaming doesn’t want to say much.
Biden Lu had no interest in that child, but he was much more interested in the Guan family acting like this.
Therefore, as soon as Guan Ji Ming’s voice fell, he asked with a smile on his face, “So you guys are looking for Clara to impersonate her, but she’s notorious, these things, even if you don’t say anything, sooner or later someone will spread to the old man, how are you going to explain it to him?”
Guan Ji Ming frowned slightly at the words.
“These things are all in the past, not to mention that the old man doesn’t have many days left, during this time I will strictly order my family to keep quiet and not mention those things from the past, as for the people outside, no matter what they say, the old man won’t believe it.”
Biden Lu scoffed lightly.
Jenny asked, “You said the old man doesn’t have many days left, did the doctor give the notice?”
Guan Ji Ming nodded.
He was silent for a moment before saying, “The cancer has spread to the liver, and the old man refuses to accept chemotherapy and all other means, so it will basically not last for another two months at most.”
Chapter 325
There was a sudden silence in the tea room.
Although Jenny didn’t know Master Guan well and spent a few hours with him briefly, he didn’t develop much fondness or affection for him.
But it wasn’t good news after all, and it was not a moment of sadness.
“Second Uncle Guan, please also feel sorry for me.”
Guan Ji Ming smiled.
“The company has a long history of developing new products and services for its customers, and it’s also a great place to start.
Just back then, Wanlet because of the child’s matter, has been in a trance, even later adopted snow faye, still did not let go of this heart disease, resulting in but thirty-something years old and ended up depressed.
The old man has been nagging at the matter, all these years busy with all kinds of home affairs, plus don’t know the child’s death, also didn’t care to find, now near the end, in the end, don’t want to leave his own regret, this is the thought to find the person back.
In fact, it’s not that important whether the child is real or not, in the end, as long as the old man thinks she’s real, it’s real, and everything else is in vain.”
After Guan Ji Ming finished speaking, the three of them fell silent again.
Jenny didn’t even know what to say for a moment.
Only now did she finally understand what Biden Lu meant when he said before that it might not be a good thing for that child to come back.
I’m afraid that no one in this family would want her back except the old man!
After all, seeing as the old man’s health was failing and his will was not made, one more child or grandchild was one more competition, even if the other was just a weak woman with no power or attachments.
The rich and powerful, sometimes in some ways, when it is really cold to the bone.
Jenny didn’t say anything else for a while, and Biden Lu saw that he had already gotten an answer, so there was nothing more to ask.
The two men got up and took their leave of Guan Ji Ming.
Guan Jiming got up to see them off, and when he reached the door, he looked at Jenny, somewhat wanting to stop talking.
Jenny knew what he wanted to say, and said quietly: “Don’t worry, as long as she doesn’t provoke me, I won’t say anything, just as if I didn’t know this person, the past enmity and grudges, as far as I’m concerned, has been in the past, the law should be ambushed, the things I have to take back have also been taken back, in the final analysis, she is calculating, in the end also did not get any benefit, I’m not so stubborn as to still stalking.It’s futile to chase after them.”
Guan Ji Ming heard her say that and let go.
“In that case, I’ll thank you here first.”
Jenny Jing nodded slightly and turned to leave with Biden Lu.
Back at Maple Bridge Cottage, it’s still early.
Neither of them had anything to eat at Guan’s, but when Aunt Liu saw them return, she specially cooked the little dumplings that Jenny especially loved and served them to them.
Jenny Jing and Biden Lu sat at the dining table, Jenny Jing eating a small dumpling while thinking about things.
Biden Lu looked at her and asked, “If you’re really uncomfortable, I’ll just bring you to the door to take out her old secrets, so there’s no need to eat here.”
Jenny was stunned and reacted, busy explaining, “Oh, no, I wasn’t thinking about her.”
Biden Lu raised his eyebrows.
“So what are you thinking about?”
Jenny Jing hesitated for a moment before saying, “I was thinking, I had always heard that Master Guan was very good to Guan Xuefei, but seeing it today doesn’t seem to be as good as the legends, do you think it’s because Clara is back, so even Guan Xuefei’s adopted daughter is not treated well?”
continental landscape
Deep’s face was a little darker.
“Thinking about this here for a while?”
Jenny nodded seriously.
“Heh!It’s none of your business whether she’s treated well or not.Why do you need to worry so much about her?”
Jenny didn’t know where he was suddenly getting his fire from and skimmed his lips in displeasure.
“People at least like you for so many years, or your ex-girlfriend, or maybe it’s your first love, and now that you’re in this situation, you don’t even care about it, that’s what I call heartless and cold-hearted, and you’re still talking about me.”
Biden Lu stalled.
Jenny wasn’t one to look up old scores, but every once in a while, he would always be unable to resist bringing out Guan Xuefei to ridicule him.
He put down his spoon, looked at Jenny and said seriously: “I repeat, I have never admitted that she is my girlfriend, it was just a joke from my parents when I was young and misunderstandings from the outside world.Her, understand?”
Jenny raised his eyebrows and smiled teasingly.
“Why are you so nervous?I’m just joking around and explaining a whole bunch of serious things.”
Biden Lu: “…….”
Jenny saw him darken his face, afraid that he would take it seriously, and even smiled to round things off.
“Ugh don’t be so sensitive, who doesn’t have an ex-girlfriend ex-boyfriend these days, I was in a relationship before I met you, it’s fine, I don’t mind.”
However, the words trailed off, only to darken the man’s face even more.
Just then, Aunt Liu came in with a smile and said, “Sir, Madam, Miss Hua is here.”
Jenny was stunned, a little surprised.
Looking at the time, it was ten o’clock at midnight.
Ever since she returned to Kyoto after giving birth, Nina has been living in a very modest house, and usually doesn’t go out so late at night except for parties.
Why is she here at this hour?
With a question, Jenny got up and went outside.
As soon as he reached the living room, he saw Nina Hua holding the baby, followed by his wife Zhao, the wife of the moon, walking in with a big bag of stuff.
“Distant.”She shouted and walked over, concerned, “What’s wrong?What’s going on here?”
Nina Hua smiled, “It’s fine, I’m coming over so late, I’m not disturbing you, right?”
Biden Lu walked out from behind Jenny Jing, his face flat, looked at her and said to Jenny Jing, “You guys talk, I’ll go back to the study first.”
Jenny knew that he wanted to leave the two good girlfriends alone, so he nodded his head and agreed.
After Biden Lu went upstairs, Jenny Jing Fang welcomed Nina Hua to sit down on the sofa, looked at the sleeping child in her arms and said, “It’s so late, it’s so cold outside, why did you carry him out?”
In the waning months of Kyoto, there was a thick layer of snow outside that was never meant to be borne by a small child.
Nina Hua sighed and said helplessly, “I can’t help it, I’m going to come over here sooner or later anyway, so it’s better for me to run over there myself rather than having Little Zhao send it over tomorrow morning, I’ll feel more at ease.”
Jenny was a little confused.
Nina Hua looked at her and said seriously, “Jenny, do me a favor, will you?”
Jenny nodded without even thinking about it, “It’s all right if you say, as long as I can do it.”
“Take care of Lele for me, I need to go back to Visterdem.”
Chapter 326
Jenny Jing and Nina Hua had carefully analyzed the future before, and Nina Hua had naturally listened in.
Therefore, it was also known that he had to go back on this trip to Visterdem.
Only, she can go back, but the baby can’t run with her.
For one thing, because the child has only just recovered from a serious illness, and the month is too young to carry in case of any further physical discomfort.
Secondly, there is also the fear that after all, Hua Jingze has not yet loosened his lips to admit to letting the child in, and that an argument or friction will then occur and the child will suffer.
After listening to Nina Hua’s concerns, Jenny Jing was deeply impressed with her thoughts.
She nodded and said, “Yao Yao, don’t worry, I’ll take good care of Le Le, and in the meantime, don’t worry about going back to settle your affairs, I promise that when you return, not a hair of the child will be missing.”
Nina Hua smiled gratefully.
“I certainly believe that.”
She paused for a moment and finally gave the child a reluctant glance before handing him over to Dao, “It’s getting late, I have to go back, in the meantime, let Xiao Zhao stay here and help you take care of it together, she has been taking care of the child and knows Happy’s temperament and has experience.”
Jenny nodded in agreement and told Aunt Liu to take Zhao and the child down to settle down, which was followed by getting up to send her out.
“What time is the flight tomorrow?”
“Eight a.m..”
“Do you want me to give you a ride?”
“No need.”
Nina Hua hesitated and sighed.
“Let’s hope it goes well this time back, I’m actually tired after a year of cold war, but I’m not going to compromise on my kids, not asking my dad to forgive me, just hoping he’ll let go and let me go the rest of the way on my own.”
Jenny listened to her and also felt an unexpected heaviness in her heart.
But still, she gave her an encouraging hug.
“It’ll go well, I’m sure of it.”
After sending Nina Hua off, Jenny Jing returned to the room and specifically went to Aunt Liu’s side to check on her.
Aunt Liu had already brought Zhao and the child to the guest room and was making all the arrangements for them to stay.
The good news is that Ann comes over often, so there are plenty of things in the house that the kids can use.
Plus, the necessities Nina Hua had asked Xiao Zhao to bring them all over, so it didn’t seem rushed.
When everything was arranged, Jenny looked at the little gnome.
The little gnome sleeps well and shows no signs of wanting to wake up even now.
A little blob, lying in the cot, just like a cute little angel.
She couldn’t help but warm her heart and tucked him in, which was why she handed over, “Little Zhao, please watch it alone tonight, and tomorrow I’ll find another maid with experience in bringing up children to help you, so you can also take turns taking care of it.”
Little Zhao even smiled, “It’s okay, I’ve been taking care of Lele for such a long time, I’m used to it, it’s okay even if it’s just me.”
Jenny smiled and didn’t answer any more.
After making all the arrangements, she went upstairs to look for Biden Lu.
Biden Lu was in his study at this moment, and when he saw her come in, that’s when he asked, “Have the arrangements been made?”
“Well.”
Jenny Jing thought about it and said, “There are still two days until New Year’s Eve, I guess Yao Yao won’t be able to come back until after New Year’s Eve, around this time is more free, I want to take An An over to live with me, it’s also just right to be a companion with Le Le.”
Biden Lu had no comment on this proposal.
“Well, you just arrange it.”
The next day, Jenny went to the old house.
An An saw Kyung.
Jenny, naturally, was overjoyed.
Eyes lit up when they learned that there was a little brother waiting for them at home.
“Oh mommy, did you and daddy finally give me a baby brother?Wouldn’t that make me a sister from now on?”
Jenny Jing couldn’t help but laugh, scraping her little nose and saying angrily, “Don’t talk nonsense, that’s your Aunt Yao Yao’s child, but Mommy and Aunt Yao Yao are good friends, so it’s also your brother.”
It dawned on Ann.
“Mommy, when are you going to give me a real brother, then?”
Jenny: “……..”
Uh….
Beside her, the old lady and the old man couldn’t help but watch as the old lady smiled, “If you just stop clamoring every day to go live with Mommy, Mommy and Daddy will be able to give you a brother soon.”
Ann pouted in displeasure at the news.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve lived with Mummy, isn’t that long enough?If that’s the case, then I don’t want it.”
She said, a little sulkily, turning her little face to the side and huffing.
Jenny Jing thought this child was adorable and smiled, “There are more than twenty days of winter holidays, this entire winter break, you can stay with mommy, oh, are you happy?”
Ann’s eyes lit up for a moment, then, suspiciously, she looked at her again.
“Really?You’re not lying to me?”
Facing the child’s suspicious eyes, Jenny suddenly stalled.
Somehow sore.
This child, with a rocky background, grew up without a mother, although Biden Lu loves her enough and is patient enough, but in the end, he is too busy, and usually accompanies her the most, just the old lady and the old man.
So, deep down, she was actually extremely insecure, I guess.
She sighed softly and squatted down, taking the child into her arms and whispering, “Really, when you’re feeling better, you’ll be with Mommy every day from now on, never to be apart again, okay?”
Ani was suddenly happy.
“Well, I knew mommy was the best.”
Next to her, the old lady looked at the scene and suddenly wet her eyes.
I have to say, Jenny is really good.
She used to think that Jenny would have a hard time accepting the child.
But now it seemed that she really did treat Ann as if she was already there, without any personal interest.
Thinking thus, the old lady said, “Jenny, come with me for a moment.”
I said, getting up and going upstairs.
Jenny got up and followed, though he was a little confused.
The old lady kept taking her to her room.
In the Lu family’s old house, one of the old maids who served the old lady was surnamed He, and everyone usually called her Mama He, who had followed the old lady since she was young and was very trusted by her.
At this time, she was just cleaning up the room for the old lady.
Seeing them come in, they even stopped their operations and smiled, “Old lady, madam, you are here.”
The old lady nodded and did not avoid her, directly ordering, “You go and help me bring that ancient sandalwood box in the drawer.”
He’s mother said, “Eh”, busy going over.
The old lady took Jenny’s hand and sat down on the chair, only then did she say, “Jenny, you and Shen met early and didn’t have a wedding, so I didn’t have time to send you anything, but in my heart, I like you as a granddaughter-in-law, with you here, I can trust you with confidence, no matter if it’s Shen or An’an.”
Jenny frowned as he heard the wrong stubble.
