When Yan Keyi returned to the Jiang family home with Zhu Yiyun and Jiang Ning, Jiang Hong was already waiting at home.
He visited Jiang Ning and her family in the past two months, but he was too busy to stay for more than a few days.
Jiang Hong was of course aware of the plan to bring Yan Keyi home.
Before they even arrived home, he had already had a room prepared for Yan Keyi.
When Yan Keyi and the others arrived, they held a welcome dinner for the mother, daughter, and child.
Zhu Yiyun and Jiang Hong both treated Yan Keyi very well. Most importantly, because Jiang Ning doted on her, Yan Keyi was settled down.

Before school started, apart from the second day after they arrived when Jiang Ning took Yan Keyi out to buy new clothes, they basically didn't go out much.
So, even though Jiangning has been back for several days, he hasn't really contacted his friends.
Knowing that Jiang Ning liked to draw, Yan Keyi would sit on a small stool and watch him draw.
When Jiang Ning tried to get her to join him, Yan Keyi would also draw a few strokes under Jiang Ning's guidance.
However, she is still a child and her temperament is not stable enough. She often can't sit still while drawing. But she can sit still when she is watching Jiang Ning.
"Jiang Ning! You're finally back! I've missed you so much..."
When Qin Yiran came to find Jiang Ning, she saw Jiang Ning holding Yan Keyi and drawing.
Upon seeing this scene, Qin Yiran was stunned before she could even finish speaking.
She knew that Jiang Ning had gone to the countryside to recuperate a while ago, and that he should have just returned these past two days.
I originally wanted to ask her out shopping, but I couldn't get an invitation, so I thought of coming to the Jiang family to find Jiang Ning.
And then I saw another little girl?
Jiang Ning and Qin Yiran have been friends for many years, and he knows what kind of temperament she has, so when he first heard her voice, he didn't even turn around to give her a look.
But Yan Keyi was startled by the noise that came in, so she looked curiously towards the doorway.
A pair of watery eyes looked at her. Although she didn't know who this person was, Qin Yiran still walked closer.
It's rare to see someone treated like this by Jiang Ning.
"Who is this? You were only away for two months, and you didn't actually have an illegitimate daughter, did you?"
He secretly pinched Yan Keyi's chubby cheeks, rubbing them while asking about Jiang Ning's situation.
Hearing Qin Yiran's words, Jiang Ning almost couldn't help but roll his eyes at her.
"Are you stupid? How could I, at 16, have an 8-year-old illegitimate daughter? Also, stop pinching her cheeks."
The child's skin was delicate, and his face was red from being pinched, which made Jiang Ning feel a little sorry for him.

"So, you brought this back from the countryside?"
Before the start of the school term, a few friends from Jiangning finally managed to get together for a meal.
Because Jiang Ning is ill, I'm afraid something might happen to her, so I keep a close eye on her. Plus, she wasn't in the city for a while, so it's been quite a long time since I've seen her.
Upon meeting Jiang Ning and learning about Yan Keyi's background from him, Yang Xingsui was utterly shocked.
I always felt that this kind of thing didn't really fit with Jiangning.
"Yiyi, this is Yang Xingsui, you can call him Xingsui brother. This is Qin Yiran, I met her at home last time, call her Yiran sister.
Since Jiang Ning had brought Yan Keyi to their gathering, he naturally intended to introduce her to his social circle. This was also a way for them to introduce her to each other.
"Hello, Brother Xing Sui. Hello, Sister Yi Ran."
As a dutiful "little tagalong," Yan Keyi naturally did whatever Jiang Ning said.
The little girl called out to her brother/sister in a sweet voice, and Yang Xingsui and Qin Yiran suddenly seemed to understand why Jiang Ning liked this child so much.
If they had a younger brother or sister like that, they would definitely spoil him rotten.

Yan Keyi settled down at the Jiang family home. Because the two wanted to stay together, they commute from junior high to university.
Jiang Ning's classmates and friends all know that she has a younger sister.
I lived at the Jiang family's house while I was in school, and I would go back during winter and summer vacations or short holidays.
Zhu Yiyun's parents passed away early, so she treated Grandpa Yan and Grandma Yan like her own parents. Over time, they became more and more like a family.
Strangely enough, Yan Keyi's biological parents have never met her, nor have they heard much about her from them. However, with Yan Keyi's parents around to fulfill their filial duties, the two elders seem to be living a relatively comfortable life.
When Yan Keyi was in junior high school, she showed her talent and love for acting. In the past, it was already difficult for her family to support her schooling, so naturally they didn't have much money to learn these things.
But because Yan Keyi has Jiang Ning, Zhu Yiyun, and Jiang Hong behind her, she can learn anything she likes.
But no matter what she learned, Yan Keyi remained as clingy as ever to Jiang Ning.
It was Zhu Yiyun who first realized that something was wrong between the two.
While other families' children were starting to date, Jiang Ning remained completely silent.
Jiang Ning was already working at that time. When she graduated, Jiang Hong gave her some start-up capital to run around on her own. A few years after graduation, the studio was doing quite well, but since she was the boss herself, she could easily coordinate her time and wasn't actually that busy with work.
But she was either at work or on her way to pick Yan Keyi up from school.
She clearly has the time, and there are plenty of high-quality men in her work environment, but she just can't seem to find a partner.
