When Ji Nuan stepped out of her grandmother’s room, Song Sisi and Song Keke had grown tired of twisting their bodies here and there. They were resting in the front yard and immediately lifted their eyes to watch her. However, Ji Nuan did not return their gaze as she stepped out. She was expressionless and did not reveal any emotions.
Finally, as Ji Nuan entered the car and the black, luxury car drove off, the mother and daughter trio sat in the front yard with darkened, defeated expressions.
Ji Nuan sat quietly in the car. Her gaze was fixed outside the window and she did not speak at all.
Mo Jingshen saw that she had something on her mind and did not interrupt her. He gave her the time to sort her feelings out. Finally, when the car entered the main road heading for Ji City’s central area, he placed his hand on her thigh to ask: “It took you almost an hour to come out. What did you chat about?”
Ji Nuan paused. She watched the scenery outside the window as she spoke: “She told me some things about my mother. I haven’t even clarified my own background, yet she tossed me another difficult problem.”
“What problem?”
“She said that my mother isn’t her birth daughter. When she was young, she used to work as a helper at a rich family’s home. She did that for almost a year before returning to the small town to give birth to my aunt. After that, because she was lacking in money, she returned to work for them. However, the family abruptly encountered some trouble; the sort of melodramatic trouble that would only occur when the elderly favored their sons over their daughters. In any case, right after my mother was born, she was thrown out of the family. My grandmother picked her up and raised her until she was ten. She thought that when she sent her back, she would be able to get some money. Who would have thought that the family would move abroad? They were no longer contactable.”
Ji Nuan brushed her bangs back, saying lightly: “She had taken my mother in hopes of gaining a few million yuan when that family finally returned for her. However, all of her hopes were dashed. After that, she did not ask for anything more from my mom. She allowed her to live as she pleased. After my mom graduated from junior high school, she borrowed money from their relatives for her senior high school education. She even worked part-time and applied for student loans. Finally, she left the country after being granted a scholarship. Most of the money she earned was used to repay those relatives and after that, she did not contact my grandmother’s side again. But after so many years, even after my mother passed away, she never knew the truth behind her own birth. She only assumed my grandmother wasn’t fond of her.”
Many years ago, many local wealthy families tended to favor sons over daughters. This was especially so in Jing City. During those times, there were much fewer wealthy families and it was common for them to leave their daughters behind.
“Right now, I can’t even fully understand the feelings I’m experiencing. On one end, I’m thankful that my mom isn’t related to this family. I really despise them. But on the other hand, I feel regret that she passed away without ever learning the truth. Perhaps it was impossible for her to look for her family after so long. But my mother was such a beautiful, hardworking, and determined woman who worked hard for a better life. In the end, she still passed away due to emotional complications, and she held regret with her as she left this world.”
“I also finally understand why Ji Hongwen once sympathized with my mother so much and was willing to marry and protect her even though she was pregnant with someone else’s child. If I’m truly related to the Xiao family, under what circumstances did Chairman Xiao, who was married at the time, cause my mother to become pregnant. He didn’t even take responsibility and forced her to have to enter the Ji family with a child.”
“During Chairman Xiao’s birthday party, on that cruise, when Xiao Luye planned to bring me to see his father, you once mentioned that I would become unhappy if I saw them.” Ji Nuan turned to Mo Jingshen, who had been quietly listening the whole time: “Did you already investigate into my birth? You must have known that, even if I was Chairman Xiao’s daughter, I may not necessarily wish to see him, right?”
Mo Jingshen gently held her hand, speaking calmly: “In the morning, you were unconscious with a high fever and hospitalized, and in the afternoon, we were out all day. It’s been a difficult day. Right now, it’s much more difficult for you to process these things. I’ve only heard most things from other people and I don’t fully know the facts either. When it comes to the feelings of the older generation, it’s not as complicated as you think. You’re exhausted. Take a rest first. We’ll talk about this when we get back, en?”
Ji Nuan turned to look at him. She deliberated over his words and felt that, indeed, if Ji Hongwen had allowed her to return to Ji City, he must have known she would find out these truths. There was no need for her to ask Mo Jingshen. She could directly ask Ji Hongwen and Chairman Xiao themselves.
She lowered her eyes as her body relaxed. To be honest, when she learned that her mother was unrelated to that family of greedy and low-class people, the stifled feelings in her chest had dissipated. She found herself much more comfortable.
Thankfully, the blood flowing through her body was not the same as theirs.
It was likely because she had put the stifled feelings in her chest into words, but she now felt much better. Ji Nuan was about to tug her hand out from the man’s grip, but he did not let go. He lowered his eyes to watch the little woman leaning against the car seat: “After forcing yourself to be strong for three years outside, have you grown used shouldering your problems alone? I’m here. You can lean on my shoulders anytime. There’s no need to force yourself to be strong.”
Ji Nuan pursed her lips and answered expressionlessly: “Aren’t you the reason for the way I am right now?”
The man chuckled lightly when he saw that she was still bearing a grudge. He tried to tug Ji Nuan to his side but she ignored him and closed her eyes, reclining against the car seat to sleep. She stubbornly refused to lean against him. Finally, the man raised his arm and brought her into his embrace. He nudged her head against his shoulder, and before Ji Nuan could struggle, he pressed her down firmly: “Lean on me obediently. Don’t move about.”
Ji Nuan originally wanted to struggle. However, she was truly exhausted. She deliberated over his words and did not move again. Instead, she decisively shifted her body weight onto his, leaning against him heavily. She closed her eyes to say: “I’ll only lean on you for thirty minutes. Wake me up after that.”
The man’s heavy, composed voice carried a hint of a smile: “En.”
After thirty minutes, Ji Nuan was fast asleep on his shoulder. Mo Jingshen naturally wouldn’t wake her up. Whenever the car jolted over the bumps, he would even raise his hand in time to support her head. In the end, he maintained the embrace and kept her half-laying in his arms.
Shen Mu glanced back as he drove. He muttered to himself in his heart, CEO Mo, did you forget that it’s been two nights since you closed your eyes after returning from Jing City? You’re actually holding Ji Nuan as she sleeps. Look at your satisfied and composed expression. Do you think yourself to be immortal? Or is Ji Nuan exhaling immortal breath? The moment you breathe in, you’re energized?
