When Shui Anluo, who was hidden under the sheets, heard what Maid Yu had said, she could not resist from peeking out to look at Chu Ningyi.

I understand, Ill head down immediately, Chu Ningyi replied and got up. He straightened his clothes and arranged the sheets for Shui Anluo. Go back to sleep, you dont have to go downstairs, he said.

Shui Anluo nodded and blinked as she watched Chu Ningyi leave. She then held the sheets close as she sat up. It seems like Chu Ningyi was deliberately preventing her from going downstairs.

Chu Ningyi walked down gracefully. His father was holding the little darling and playing with him. This kid had always been an accurate judge of character. He knew who to kiss up to so he was currently staring at his grandfather with adoration.

In contrast, when it comes to anyone who did not require his a.s.s-kissing, his cold att.i.tude could be on par with Chu Ningyis.

Chu Ningyi lowered his gaze and noticed a small jade pendant around the little darlings neck. It now made sense why his son was kissing up so much. That jade pendant was a part of his fathers valued collection. It was a good quality jade that he had once spent more than ten million dollars to acquire. Even Chu Ningyi himself had only seen a few glimpses of it.

He did not expect his father to give it to his grandson so easily.

Chu Ningyi stoically approached them and sat opposite the pair.

This kid is much cuter than you when you were young. Chu Mobai held his grandson and teased him gleefully.

Back then, you werent that nice to me either!

Chu Ningyi thought.

Chu Mobai was in good spirits but the same could not be said for his wife.

What was yesterdays incident about? Whats all this about a subsidiary company? He Xiaoran asked sternly.

Chu Ningyi casually looked at the books on the table then back at his mother. Arent you supposed to know everything?

I have nothing against you helping her but theres no need for you to drag the companys money out to fill a nearly-bankrupt company. Wont it be more valuable to file for bankruptcy than to throw away your money? He Xiaoran slammed her hand on the table as she spoke.

Thats the embodiment of Luoluos grandfathers lifelong efforts. I plan to hand it over to my son so how can it go bankrupt? Chu Ningyi calmly replied. Besides, losing money is only temporary, Ill rebuild it soon enough.

You He Xiaorans son has angered her again. She turned back toward her husband and complained, Look at your son, he wants to use the companys money to save a worthless company.

Chu Mobai held his grandson and sat him on his lap. He was watching the little fellow fiddle with the jade pendant with his tiny hands when his wife suddenly screamed at him so his mind was still outside of the situation.

Didnt he tell you? Hell rebuild it. Whatre you so worried about? Chu Mobai said as he reached his hand out to pinch the little darlings cheeks.

Gurgle The little darling looked up, smiled and drooled.

Chu Ningyi quietly watched his father as he wiped the little darlings drool away. His biological father had certainly never treated him that way.

Ever since Shui Anluo had come back, I noticed that youve stopped making any sensible decisions. Do you want to pay for an entire company just for her? I have no objections about what youve done for her. After all, shes Luonings mother but that isnt related to your foolish actions, He Xiaoran retorted angrily.

Shui Anluo had intended to go downstairs to give her greetings after changing her clothes but she never expected to overhear He Xiaorans angry retorts. Hence, she was rooted to the spot, unsure whether to go downstairs or not.

Was the reason why Chu Ningyi had never mentioned anything about a subsidiary company because he had been pouring money into it himself? Furthermore, it was a company that does not provide any returns?

Chu Ningyi noticed He Xiaoran looking up so he turned around to look as well. Shui Anluo was standing right there as she supported herself with one hand on the banister. She was staring at him with a smile that looked more unsightly than a sobbing face.
