Chapter 353 - Help
"My child, at times like these, you mustn"t be distracted. The most important thing now is Song Ning. You have to find her as soon as possible and ensure her safety. The company and money are just worldly possessions. If we can use them to exchange for Song Ning"s safety, we have nothing to feel reluctant about. Do you understand?" Jiang Jin said. Her voice was steady and powerful.
Mu Chen raised his head to look at his grandmother; his eyes were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with grat.i.tude.
Jiang Jin looked at him and continued to say, "When you reach my age, you"ll understand what"s most important. With Song Ning, you have a complete family. Husbands and wives are the most important people to each other; they"ll spend the rest of their lives together, after all. I know about the heavy burden and responsibility you carry because of the Mu family. Let me make it clear to you; if you have to choose between Song Ning and the company, you must choose Song Ning. I will support you. Fame and fortune are meaningless in comparison to family. Don"t feel burdened. I only have one wish and that"s for you to be happy. Wealth and material things can"t compare to your happiness. Do you understand?"
Mu Chen nodded.
Jiang Jin sighed. "I taught my grandson well, but I didn"t teach my son well. I still failed in the end…"
Mu Chen held Jiang Jin"s frail hand. "Grandma…"
Jiang Jin knew Mu Chen was worried about her health. She smiled faintly and said, "Don"t worry. Song Ning looked after me very well before this. I haven"t forgotten her instructions to me. I"ll make sure to look after my health so you can be at ease and concentrate on looking for her. The sooner you find her, the sooner both of us will feel at ease…"
Mu Chen nodded. His voice was slightly hoa.r.s.e as he said, "Grandma, for my sake and the baby"s sake, you have to look after your health…"
Jiang Jin smiled and nodded.
The grandma and grandson hugged each other as sadness lingered in the air.
…
It was late at night, and A Nuan was sleeping soundly next to the baby"s cot.
At this time, Sister Yu gently closed the door before bringing a blanket to the balcony and draping it across Jiang Jin"s shoulders. She said softly, "Old Madam, it"s late. Let"s rest…"
The grandfather and grandson hugged each other gently. The air was filled with a faint sense of sadness.
Since things at home had gotten strange, Sister Yu had been staying by Jiang Jin"s side and sleeping in Jiang Jin"s room at night.
Jiang Jin pulled the blanket tighter around her as she said, "Yu, we have to help Mu Chen and Cheng Che while they"re busy with their affairs…"
Sister Yu stood at the side and asked, "Old Madam, what do you want to do? I"ll accompany you as long as you promise to take care of your health. If not for anything else, then do it for the two Young Masters and the Little Master…"
Jiang Jin softly sighed. "I"ve lived a long and fulfilling life. However, I still worry about my two grandsons. I can"t stand at the side and do nothing while others try to scheme against them. There"s also Song Ning. We have to get her back…"
Sister Yu"s eyes widened in shock upon hearing the latter part of Jiang Jin"s words. "Old Madam…"
Jiang Jin looked at Sister Yu meaningfully. "Yu, I"m sure you understand what"s going on, right? The Song Ning at home isn"t our Song Ning. If I"m not mistaken, she"s Ye Xin. Our Ningning is currently missing. We can"t just sit around and do nothing. We have to help in whatever ways we can…"
Sister Yu moved closer to Jiang Jin and said with tears in her eyes, "Old Madam, Young Madam… She"s…"
Jiang Jin shook her head gently.. "Yu, I"ll explain it to you slowly. I know you"ve always been able to keep secrets, but this matter is too important to be rushed…"
