"He's too humane; I'm afraid he won't be able to shoulder great responsibilities in the future."
His gaze was deep and unfathomable, and his voice carried a hint of displeasure.
"As the head of the Jin family, one should be free from all attachments and have no weaknesses."
“Ke Jingmin – He values his lover and children too much.”
"It's alright that the child is gone, but this lover... he still has that Chu girl in his heart. Even if he returns to the Jin family, he will still be a double man, and he will be a threat to the Jin family in the future."
The assistant's eyes flickered slightly, and he tentatively probed in a low voice.
"Then... how about I send someone to Haicheng to get rid of Miss Chu?"
He made a throat-slitting gesture.
Old Master Jin slammed his teacup down, narrowed his eyes, and coldly cursed.
"idiot!"
“The situation is different now than it was back then.”
“Jingmin already knows that Chu Yatou was bewitched by me. Now that she is sick and lying in the hospital, he will only feel more pity for her and become more persistent.”
"If we let her die now, wouldn't that be the same as sending Jingmin to his death as well?"
"Then why should I go through all that trouble?"
The assistant nodded repeatedly after being reprimanded, not daring to say another word.
Grandpa Jin slowly stood up, his tone calm.
"The only thing we can do now is to alienate them, to distract them from love."
The assistant still had some concerns.
"But... in such a short time, Young Master Jing has lost his child and been abandoned by his lover. Will he... be able to handle it?"
Grandpa Jin raised an eyebrow and smiled, his tone as indifferent as still water.
"Then we can only blame him for not being able to withstand the test and for not being qualified to inherit my Jin family."
As he spoke, a sarcastic smile appeared on his lips, as if he had just thought of something.
"But don't forget, he's sick."
"His obsession with that girl Chu was tinged with a morbid paranoia; it's not that he couldn't let go."
He slowly lay back down on the bed.
"I'll find some time to speak with that girl myself."
"It's still early, I'll sleep a little longer."
Grandpa Jin waved his hand and lay down again.
The assistant quickly stepped forward, helped him lean back against the headboard, and carefully covered him with the blanket.
"Don't bother me before dawn."
"You can arrange for people to handle the chaos, losses, and destroyed buildings outside yourselves."
"yes."
The assistant bowed his head in response, paused, and then tentatively spoke again.
"Then...the statues outside?"
He understood what Old Master Jin meant: he hoped everything would be sorted out before dawn.
But the statue is so large that it probably cannot be restored overnight.
Old Master Jin closed his eyes, his face turned to the wall, and spoke in a detached tone as if he were discussing something insignificant.
"We can leave the statue as is; we're going to replace it anyway."
He paused for a moment, his voice even lower.
"Since Jingmin blew it up himself... let's keep it and let him fix it himself later."
"yes."
