Jia Rui took a sip of cola and looked at his grandmother with great sadness. "Grandma, you don't need to try to lie to me anymore. I know she doesn't love me at all. The reason she came back to me wasn't out of guilt or because she genuinely wanted to take me away."

She must be plotting something. Didn't they say on TV that they were going to dig out the hearts and lungs of children from the past? I think she's one of those kinds of people.

I was raised by my grandmother, and I want to stay by her side forever. I don't want to leave with her, and I don't care about the life of a rich family.

"I want to go to university, I'll take the exams myself. I want to study abroad, I'll take the exams myself again. Wouldn't it be better to get a scholarship to study abroad?"

He didn't care about or covet any of the empty promises she made.

"Grandma, you must not believe what he said. You must believe that your grandson can also live a better life through his own efforts."

He's not afraid of anything now, except that his grandma might make him leave with that mother for the sake of his future.

"Are you stupid? Why would I give away the grandson I raised with such difficulty?"

I never intended to give you to anyone.

Just like you said, Grandma would prefer that you get into university and study abroad through your own efforts. Because that would mean you're capable of taking care of yourself.

What's so good about living in someone else's house? You're living under someone else's roof, having to watch their face every day.

Those two children are their own; how could they not feel wronged?

I just want to know if you want a mother.

Now that I know what you're thinking, don't worry, Grandma will definitely not give up.

No matter what Ji Shu is planning, he won't succeed.

"Grandma, she said she loves me, but she forgot today is my birthday. Isn't that ridiculous?"

That's absolutely ridiculous.

Mo Yan stroked his head, watching him say things he didn't care about, but Jia Rui was actually very sad.

"A smile will make you feel better."

Mo Yan patted his head and looked at him gently.

"Mmm." Jia Rui's voice choked with emotion.

How could I not be sad? Other people's children at this age should be naughty and mischievous, constantly causing trouble and worrying their parents.

They should be carefree, thinking only about how to go out and have fun, and how to play games every day.

As for Jia Rui, he already had to start thinking about what to do next.

"Grandma, I'm so happy. I'm so happy to be able to live with you."

Grandma was always afraid he would get hurt, always wanted to give him the best of everything, and always hoped that he could be happy.

He already has the best grandmother; he can't be greedy anymore.

Ji Shu is currently making a video call in the hotel, and the person making the video call is her husband, Nan Bao.

"Honey, why aren't you asleep yet?"

Ji Shu, dressed in light pajamas, looked at Nan Bao with tender eyes.

However, Nanbao acted as if he couldn't see it and spoke gently, "It's not that I miss you, Xingxing misses you too. When are you and Jiarui coming back? We're all waiting for you."

Ji Shu frowned upon hearing the name Jia Rui, clearly displeased. "Honey, stop talking! That little brat is so immature; all his obedience and maturity is just an act!"

Upon hearing this, Nan Bao raised an eyebrow. "Oh?" He was a little curious about what was going on.

"He said he was sensible, but then he directly said that I was the one who abandoned him back then, and that he would never come with me. He also said he hated me."

"You think he's two-faced? I don't want to bring this child with me anymore; I'm afraid he'll hurt Xingxing."

Actually, she was afraid that Jia Rui would reveal her past, as she always felt that the current Mu Jia Rui was very scheming.

"Really?" This personality is quite interesting, very interesting...

"Yes, he behaves very well in front of others, but he shows his true colors in front of me. Honey, how can I entrust Xingxing to his care with a child like this?"

I can take care of the stars myself, what do you think?

"No." Nan Bao's face darkened, then he seemed to realize that his reaction was a bit too much, and looked at her gently again, "No, you have to understand, it's normal for the child to be angry after you haven't been back for several years."

I want Jiarui to come here so I can train him to be Xingxing's right-hand man in the future. Only in this way can you all be alright after I'm gone. What do you think?

For a moment, Ji Shu was startled by Nan Bao's dark expression, but now she realized what was happening. "Yes, husband, you're right."

She knew very well that everything she had was given to her by the man on the other side of the phone screen, and she absolutely could not anger him.

"But he hates me now, and he doesn't want to be with me."

"It's alright, he just didn't see our sincerity. You should treat them better. Let them know our sincerity."

So, you should bring them, the grandmother and grandchildren, to your home so they can experience it for themselves.

Only when you experience it firsthand will you want to have this kind of life for a lifetime, right?

He liked to make his clear eyes appear dull and lifeless.

"So, they still don't agree?" Ji Shu was a little worried. If they still couldn't get Jia Rui to go in the end, would her husband be angry?

“If you still disagree in the end, then we’ll see you in court. We’re rich and powerful, while that old lady is old and penniless. If something happens to this little shop, it’s something she absolutely cannot afford.”

When he said these things, Nan Bao remained very gentle, as if he were talking about something very ordinary.

This sent a chill down Ji Shu's spine. Was it just her imagination? Was she overthinking things? Maybe her husband didn't mean it that way?
