On a hospital corridor bench, grandfather and granddaughter sat side by side.
The lights were very bright, but they couldn't fully illuminate the corridor, which remained somewhat dim.
The old man looked at Nuannuan, very nervous, "Nuannuan, Grandpa is very nervous!"
Jiang Nuannuan also smiled, "Grandpa, I'm very nervous too!" She also hoped to find her father and mother.
"Haha..." The old man laughed heartily, "We are so nervous, grandfather and granddaughter, right?"
This time, his heart felt more at ease than ever before, but he was still afraid. He had been disappointed too many times and truly didn't want to be too disappointed.
Jiang Nuannuan saw her grandfather's eyes moisten and knew he had been living with guilt all these years.
"Grandpa, soon, the results will be out in two hours. We'll wait together."
"Good!" The old man nodded, sat up straight, and placed his hands neatly on his knees.
After what felt like an eternity, two hours passed. The doctor came out with the results. He knew the old man, but this time he walked out with a smile and said, "Old man, congratulations. After hundreds of paternity tests, this one is finally correct."
"Ah..." The old man was so excited that he squeezed Jiang Nuannuan's hand. At this moment, he was no longer restless; he felt steady and joyful.
"Nuannuan, we found him. I found your father." The old man was so moved that tears streamed down his face. This was a surprise he had waited for for tens of thousands of days and nights.
Jiang Nuannuan couldn't help but shed tears, "Grandpa, it's so good!" We found him, we really found him.
This trip to Modu had brought her too many surprises.
...
At the Lu family residence, Lu Qiaoyi was preparing to attend a banquet with her family.
When she saw the call from Rade, she had a bad premonition.
"Hello! What's wrong?"
"Miss, something bad has happened. They went to the paternity testing center."
"Who? Jiang Nuannuan?" Lu Qiaoyi's first reaction was to wonder what Jiang Nuannuan's purpose was for visiting her home today.
"Yes, we were waiting outside. We didn't know where it was. When we got off the car to find the restroom, we saw it was a paternity testing center."
"They have already come out. An old man was with Jiang Nuannuan. The results should be out by now."
"Damn it, you bunch of useless idiots! Act quickly, run them down."
"I'll transfer the money later," Lu Qiaoyi hissed, lowering her voice.
"Miss, please calm down. The risk of hitting Jiang Nuannuan is too great," Rade advised.
"Liu Fei and her son's deaths have already burdened you with two lives. Even if Jiang Nuannuan returns to the Lu family, you will still be the eldest daughter of the Lu family. You will not lack what rightfully belongs to you. After all, they raised you for so many years, and their feelings for you are better than those for Jiang Nuannuan. As long as Miss continues to slander Jiang Nuannuan in secret, then Jiang Nuannuan will mean nothing in the hearts of the Lu family members. This is the best course of action."
Lu Qiaoyi knew this, but she couldn't turn back anymore.
"Rade, I can't turn back," Lu Qiaoyi said, in great pain. How could such a terrible thing happen to her?
What wrong had she done? Who were her birth parents?
"Miss, acting here is very likely to expose us. Let's find another opportunity."
Lu Qiaoyi's face was pale and bloodless. She slowly walked out of the room. Seeing her parents already there, she forced down her fear and anger, smiled, and went downstairs with them.
The Lu family banquet was held at the Hongsheng Hotel. Rich people often held such exchange banquets in turns, where they exchanged business knowledge. Tonight, it was the Lu family's turn. Everyone knew the Lu family's status, so those who received an invitation card would almost never miss it.
Jiang Nuannuan and the old man arrived at the hotel.
The old man looked at her, but she was staring blankly into the rearview mirror.
"Nuannuan, what are you looking at?"
Jiang Nuannuan came back to her senses slightly and said, "Grandpa, is someone following us? That black car has been following me for two days."
The old man frowned and glanced at Jiang Wei, his eyes filled with killing intent, "Jiang Wei, find out who it is!"
Nuannuan was a bounty hunter, and her intuition was very accurate. The old man trusted her implicitly.
"Yes, Chairman." Jiang Wei noted the license plate number and sent a message.
Jiang Nuannuan looked at her grandfather, "Grandpa, I'll just go up for a while and then come down."
The old man decided to wait a while longer before meeting Lu Chengsi. He also wanted to calm his mood.
"No need to rush. Grandpa will wait for you in the tea room downstairs. You will have to manage the company in the future, so it's good to interact with more people."
Jiang Nuannuan smiled, "Grandpa, give the company to Dad."
Jiang Beichen finally understood that his granddaughter was truly indifferent to fame and fortune. His gaze was doting, "Silly girl, all of that is what Grandpa has for you, and it will all be yours in the future. As for your father, I left him a share. He has lived quite well all these years, which is also why your grandmother didn't acknowledge him."
"For a mother, as long as her child is happy and joyful, it is enough."
Jiang Nuannuan smiled, "Grandpa, actually, Grandma loves you more than you think. Grandma told Grandma Lu many things about you."
"Love me? If she loved me, why didn't she tell me the truth!" the old man said, but in his heart, he was very happy. It was a pity that he could no longer share this moment of joy with Wen Jun.
After Jiang Nuannuan got out of the car, she entered the hotel and took the express elevator to the banquet floor.
