Chapter 891: Family (2)
Grandma Jian rolled her eyes at Grandpa Jian before she turned around and asked Jian Yunmo: âDoes Yiling know youâre in Beijing today?â
âSheâs been quite busy lately. I didnât notify her about this in advance.â
Jian Yunmo knew that Jian Yiling was busy with Qin Hongzhiâs case. The case was quite tricky and troublesome.
As a result, she was probably staying up all night already.
âWell, even if sheâs busy, you should still tell her about this! You need to make sure that she gets time to relax. She stays inside all day. My poor darling~â
Right after that, Grandma Jian contacted Jian Yiling. She asked Jian Yiling to come over.
Very soon, Jian Yiling arrived in the Jian familyâs Beijing Residence. Zhai Yunsheng was also accompanying her.
This was the first time that Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yunmo met after Zhai Yunsheng got engaged with Jian Yiling.
As soon as he saw Zhai Yunsheng, Jian Yunmoâs face sank.
However, as Grandma Jian, Grandpa Jian, and Jian Yiling were also there, Jian Yunmo chose not to say anything.
Even if he wanted to strangle this person, he couldnât do it in front of his grandparents and sister.
And thus, Jian Yunmo held himself back.
Jian Yichen and Jian Yiheng who lived in the opposite apartment also came along today. They came to visit their cousin whom they hadnât seen in a long time.
âBrother Yunmo,â Jian Yiling greeted. Then, she handed a paper bag over to Jian Yunmo.
âGloves?â Jian Yunmo guessed.
âYep.â
Jian Yunmo took out a pair of coffee-colored woolen gloves from the paper bag.
Somehow, the color just happened to match the coat that Jian Yunmo was wearing today.
âDid you guys come to an agreement beforehand?â Grandma Jian asked.
âNope,â Jian Yunmo replied with a smile. âItâs just mutual understanding between us right?â
âYep,â Jian Yiling agreed.
Then, Jian Yunmo tried the gloves. The gloves fit his hands perfectly.
When Jian Yichen saw this, he was quite jealous: âYiling, why does he get gloves? What about me?â
Before Jian Yiling got the chance to speak, Jian Yunmo said: âThe turtleneck sweater that Iâm wearing today was also knitted by Yiling. Yilingâs hands are very clever and nimble.â
Upon hearing this, Jian Yichen was even more jealous: âWaaa⦠I donât have anything! Iâm about to become a lemon spirit!â
Jian Yiling paused for a moment before she said: âI will knit something for you next time.â
Jian Yichen: âOkay! Thatâs settled then. However, do this when youâre not busy! If youâre busy, just leave it for the time being. Donât exhaust yourself.â
Although he was jealous and although he wanted a hand-knitted gift from his sister, he still did not want his sister to be exhausted.
Then, Jian Yichen added: âYou donât need to make anything for my brother. Heâs too bulky. Itâs a waste of materials.â
Jian Yiheng: âIs your skin itching again?â
Upon hearing this, Jian Yichen hurriedly hid behind Jian Yiling: âSister, save me.â
When Jian Yunmo saw this, he couldnât help but laugh: âEven after so many years, youâre still the same. You still get beaten up by your brother.â
Jian Yichen weakly retorted: âIâm the most pitiful one. Therefore, my sister should give me more attention.â
Grandma Jian was amused by Jian Yichenâs words: âReally? Well, if youâre capable, you should go and fight your brother. Why are you hiding behind a girl? Are you even a man?â
âWell, I donât plan to be a man! Iâm Yilingâs Sister Yichen. Right Yiling?â
âMhmm,â Jian Yiling nodded. Then, she turned around and asked Jian Yunmo: âI will make some food for you. What do you want to eat?â
Jian Yunmo paused for a moment before he replied: âLetâs eat barbecue together. Itâs been a long time since we ate barbecue together.â
Jian Yiling: âOkay.â
Upon hearing this, Grandma Jian hurriedly said: âMe too. I havenât had a barbecue in a long time either. I wonder if Iâm part of this plan.â
Grandpa Jian also added: âAhh, itâs been a long time since Iâve eaten grilled corn.â
