Old Master Jiang fell silent for a moment and then looked at Jiang Lingâer.
He said, âLingâer, Iâve reviewed the contract, and there are no issues. The terms are very favorable. If you want to give it a try, you can sign it.â
Jiang Lingâer casually replied, âWhereâs the pen?â
Chen Yizhou was momentarily surprised and asked, âDonât you want to go through it yourself?â
Jiang Lingâer smiled and quipped, âMy life is in my grandpaâs hands, so Iâm not worried about the contract.â
In essence, she meant that it was just a contract, and even if there were pitfalls, it didnât matter. She trusted her Grandpa.
Chen Yizhou chuckled, handed her his own pen, and Jiang Lingâer signed her name on the contract.
Chen Yizhou glanced at her signature, which was both elegant and meaningful.
He smiled in satisfaction, thinking that just like her, her signature was beautiful and substantial.
Chen Yizhou handed the contract belonging to Jiang Lingâer to her and said, âSo, hereâs to a wonderful collaboration.â
Jiang Lingâer politely shook hands with Chen Yizhou and replied, âCertainly.â
âOld Master Jiang, Miss Jiang, I have an important meeting to attend to. 1â11 treat you to a meal when Iâm free next time. Is that okay?â Chen Yizhou said apologetically.
Old Master Jiang replied, âItâs alright, Mr. Chen, if you have an important meeting, weâll take our leave.â
Chen Yizhou said, âAlright, weâll set a time for the next meeting.â
With that, Chen Yizhou looked at Chen Yinuo and said, âYinuo, you stay; 1 have some matters to discuss with you after the meeting.â
Chen Yinuo nodded and then turned to Jiang Lingâer, âJiang Lingâer, 1 wonât leave with you.â
Jiang Lingâer replied, âAlright. A4r. Chen, Little Six, weâll take our leave.â
The Chen brothers accompanied the two to the elevator and watched as the doors closed. Afterward, they turned and left.
In the elevator, Old Master Jiang exclaimed, âLingâer, letâs go back together. Iâve already applied for leave from your teacher.â
Jiang Lingâer hesitated for a moment and said, âGrandpa, you go back first. 1 want to go see Nuannuan; sheâs not feeling well.â
Old Master Jiang was taken aback and inquired, â1 was wondering why she wasnât with you today. Is something wrong? Why did she suddenly fall ill?â After thinking for a moment, Jiang Lingâer responded, âThere have been some emotional issues, and 1 want to have a chat with Nuannuan to console her. Perhaps everything will be fine.â
Old Master Jiang didnât dwell on it and said, âAlright, youâre lucky to have such a good friend.â
The elevator reached the ground floor while they were conversing.
When they exited the Chen Group office building, the Jiang familyâs car was already waiting at the entrance.
Arriving at the car, Old Master Jiang checked the time and hesitated for a moment. He suggested, âLingâer, it gets dark quite early nowadays. Shall I drive you there?â
Jiang Lingâer thought about it. She didnât know if Nuannuan was at home or in the hospital, and the Wen family didnât want such matters to become known.
Jiang Lingâer said, âItâs alright, Grandpa. You can go back and rest. Iâm sure Nuannuan doesnât want this to be public knowledge.â
Old Master Jiang pondered for a moment and agreed with his granddaughterâs assessment.
He said, âAlright, take care of yourself. If it gets too late, have the driver come and pick you up.â
Jiang Lingâer nodded and assured him, âDonât worry, Grandpa. Iâve got it.â
Old Master Jiang said, âIâll head back home for now. The driver will pick you up in the evening.â
With that, he got into the car.
Watching the car leave, Jiang Lingâer took out her phone and called Wen Mo.
Jiang Lingâer inquired, âWen Mo, is Nuannuan feeling better now? Where is she? Can 1 come over?â
âBrother Wen Mo, is Nuannuan feeling better?â Jiang Lingâer asked. Where is she? Is it convenient for me to go over?â
âWhere are you?â Wen Mo asked. âIâll go pick you up.â
âJust tell me where Nuannuan is,â Jiang Lingâer said. âIâll take a taxi there myself.â
Wen Mo insisted, âTell me where you are, and Iâll come pick you up.â
Jiang Lingâer, feeling somewhat helpless when she heard Wen Moâs unyielding tone, hesitated for a moment before revealing, â1 just finished an audition at Chen Group.â
Wen Mo replied, âStay put.â
He then hung up the phone.
A few minutes later, Wen Mo arrived at Chen Group office building in his car. Jiang Lingâer had expected to wait a while, but Wen Mo had arrived surprisingly quickly.
Jiang Lingâer opened the car door and got in.
She asked, âWen Mo, where did you come from? You got here so quickly.â
Wen Mo, driving the car, replied, â1 happened to be nearby for some business, and Nuannuan is at home.â
âHow is Nuannuan now?â Jiang Lingâer asked worriedly. Is she feeling better?â
Wen Mo hesitated for a moment and said, âNuannuan can be quite extreme at times. Currently, she hasnât had an outburst, but we need to suppress those thoughts before they escalate..â
