Returning billions in assets, it was enough to scare her to death.
Jiang Nuan was indeed the abandoned daughter of the Jiang family, but she had never heard of having a grandfather.
"Ninth Master, I was wrong. Miss Jiang, I was wrong. Please, give me another chance." Li Wan was truly frightened now. She really shouldn't have harbored any侥幸的心思.
Jiang Nuan looked at Li Wan's cowering demeanor and was filled with anger. "Get her out first."
Mu Jiuchen lowered his head, looking grimly at Li Wan, his voice stern: "Get out."
"Yes, Ninth Master!" Li Wan prepared herself for the worst, thinking that Ninth Master wouldn't do anything to her out of consideration for her mother's mother.
Jiang Nuan looked at her grandfather. He was old and still busy with business; it was very tiring. "Grandpa, you should go back first. When Xiao Kuo wakes up tomorrow, I'll have Xiao Kuo call you. The children will be on holiday soon, and I'll bring them to visit and spend more time with you."
Jiang Nuan was actually in a good mood. After all, she had taken so many orders today, and for the first time in her life, she felt that making money was so easy.
"Good!" The old man looked at Jiang Yikuo with affection and said, "I brought two people with me. They are waiting outside. Nuan Nuan, if you need anything, just ask them to do it."
Jiang Nuan nodded, her smile radiating from the depths of her heart, beautiful, like the spring breeze in March, warming everyone's hearts, as if flowers were blooming.
"I've made Grandpa worry."
Grandpa Jiang smiled dotingly. Their Nuan Nuan was so beautiful; it was a bargain for Mu Jiuchen, that grandson. "Silly child! How could Grandpa not worry?"
Mu Jiuchen looked at the old man and respectfully said, "Grandpa, I'll take you back first."
The old man's face was very displeased. "No need. You don't need to take me back. Go clean up your own mess first."
After saying that, the old man turned and left.
Mu Jiuchen: "..." It really was a mess!
"Nuan Nuan." He looked at her cautiously. Was she getting ready to rest?
"Ninth Master, you can go too." Jiang Nuan's tone was very cold.
But in Mu Jiuchen's ears, it was both cold and soft, and alluring.
Mu Jiuchen blinked his deep and cunning eyes, looking aggrieved.
"Nuan Nuan, I'm tired!" Mu Jiuchen began to play the victim, his eyebrows drooping listlessly, his head bowed.
Jiang Nuan glanced at him silently. "If you're tired, go home and rest. Isn't it more tiring to stay here?"
Mu Jiuchen shook his head quickly. "Nuan Nuan, I'm mentally tired. Can you stay with me for a while?"
Jiang Nuan looked at him inexplicably, feeling that Mu Jiuchen was acting shamelessly in front of her.
Jiang Nuan remained silent, her eyes cast down, her eyelashes long and curled, beautiful like butterfly wings. Her pajamas were V-necked, revealing her fair skin and a slightly rosy deep cleavage. With her soft hair cascading down, she exuded an ethereal aura, appearing both alluring and captivating.
Mu Jiuchen's throat bobbed, and the desires within him surged. This damned little enchantress was simply torturous.
Jiang Nuan was actually quite slow when it came to love, like a single-celled organism.
She didn't notice Mu Jiuchen's unusual state at the moment.
"Nuan Nuan... my legs are weak." His legs were indeed weak; he couldn't move upon seeing her.
Jiang Nuan: "..." She was stunned. Was this really the Mu Jiuchen of the rumors?
"Nuan Nuan..."
"Shut up!" Jiang Nuan glared at him. "Where else is soft? I'll help you make it hard all at once." Jiang Nuan walked to the table, took out the longest silver needle from her bag, and shook it forcefully in front of Mu Jiuchen.
Mu Jiuchen's eyeballs followed, watching the cold, gleaming silver needle, and slowly shook his head. "Nuan Nuan, I think my legs have regained their strength."
"Pfft..." Li Qingque, standing at the door, couldn't help but chuckle.
Mu Jiuchen suddenly turned around and saw Li Qingque leaning against the doorframe. Instantly, he regained his usual cold demeanor. Li Qingque looked at him, and the smile on his face faltered slightly.
"Hey, hey, Mu Jiuchen, is this how you treat people differently?"
Mu Jiuchen answered him resolutely: "Yes, she's my wife! Who are you? Someone you can fight with today and never see again for the rest of your life."
Li Qingque: "..." He turned and left!
Hmph! You deserve to be kicked out, Mu Jiuchen.
Jiang Nuan tugged at his sleeve. "Why are you angry with him? He's sick."
Mu Jiuchen: "He looks fine, but I look sickly. I'm the one who's sick, Nuan Nuan. It hurts here, my heart hurts." Mu Jiuchen shamelessly began to act.
"Mu Jiuchen, I'm serious. He has a tumor, and it was discovered early, so he can still be saved."
Mu Jiuchen's expression faltered. He knew Jiang Nuan wasn't joking.
Mu Jiuchen looked at him earnestly. "Nuan Nuan, save him."
Jiang Nuan smiled coldly and said, "Didn't you just say you wanted nothing to do with him for the rest of your lives?"
A rare look of urgency appeared on Mu Jiuchen's handsome face. "Nuan Nuan, those were just angry words. Li Qingque and I like to joke around like this."
Jiang Nuan could see that he genuinely cared about Li Qingque. After all, Mu Jiuchen only had one or two friends he could talk to.
"Don't worry. I discovered the illness, and I will be responsible for curing him. So, you can go back now." Jiang Nuan really wanted to sleep. She was also very tired after a long day.
Mu Jiuchen breathed a sigh of relief, feeling fortunate for Li Qingque. See, Li Qingque, how lucky you are to have met my wife.
"I'm not leaving." Mu Jiuchen sat on a nearby table, looking at her tired face with great concern. "Nuan Nuan, if you're tired, go to sleep. I'll stay here with you."
Jiang Nuan ignored him. Whether he left or not, it wouldn't affect her sleep.
Jiang Yikuo's hospital bed was one meter fifty wide, so it was no problem for mother and son to sleep together.
She lifted the covers and lay down, closing her eyes to sleep.
After Jiang Nuan had settled into sleep, she remembered another thing: the two maids Grandpa brought were still outside.
She got up again, went outside, and saw two maids dressed in matching blue and green uniforms.
"Miss!" the two called respectfully.
Jiang Nuan said, "You two go back and rest. There's nothing important tonight. Come back tomorrow morning with chicken soup, and also tofu meatballs. If you don't have time, go to the supermarket and buy some shrimp, and make some shrimp paste. Thank you!"
The elder maid smiled gently. "Okay, Miss. These are all for the young master. Miss, is there anything you would like to eat?"
Jiang Nuan was surprised by her thoughtfulness. Seeing that she was older, she must have been with Grandpa for a long time. She thought for a moment, then said, "I'll have whatever. Bring enough for two servings. There's another patient next door; bring them some too."
"Okay, Miss."
Jiang Nuan watched them leave and turned to go back inside.
"Miss Jiang." Li Wan quickly called out to stop her.
Jiang Nuan looked at her coldly. "Is there something you need?"
Li Wan spoke with a wronged expression. "Miss Jiang, I've already apologized. Please forgive me, and ask Ninth Master to forgive me."
Jiang Nuan looked at her demeanor. She still had a lot of unwillingness in her heart, and even the arrogance in her eyes was clearly displayed. Jiang Nuan was not a charitable person. "Scram! I don't want to see you here again next time I come out."
