Jiang Jin looked at Ning Zhe as the smile on her face gradually faded. “Mr. Ning, I’m not trying to be unreasonable. However, Song Ning has a knot in her heart that can’t be resolved in just a short time. I think you should give her more time and space. When she finally makes up her mind, we will definitely follow her wishes. I don’t want Song Ning to suffer any more grievances. She’s now the most precious person in our Mu family.”

Su Tong’s smile was extremely unnatural as she said in a low voice, “Old Madam really cares about her.”

Jiang Jin nodded and smiled kindly. “That’s right! I have liked her since I first met her. I can’t help but want to spoil her. I can’t bear to see her suffer at all.”

Ning Zhe’s smile was a little bitter as he said, “She’s really blessed. Thank you, Old Madam.”

They continued to exchange pleasantries while Mu Chen remained quiet.

Meanwhile, Ning Dong sat next to his father with a straight back. He was seated quite close to Mu Chen. Seeing that his father was talking to Mu Chen’s grandmother, he asked Mu Chen softly, “Can I meet my sister?”

Mu Chen looked at Ning Dong in surprise.

Ning Dong averted his eyes as he said in a soft voice, “I want to see my sister; I want to talk to her…”

Mu Chen looked at the skinny teenager and said in a gentle voice, “Why don’t I convey your message to her?”

Ning Dong’s eyes flashed with disappointment. Then, he bit his lips as though he had just made up his mind and said decisively, “Then, please tell my sister I have no intentions of fighting with her for the Ning family’s assets. Please tell her to come back and visit if she has time. Father has restored the house to the way it looked when she was young. Her room is the same as before she left. Please ask her to come back. Otherwise, my mother and I will be sad as well. And…” He paused for a moment before he said, “By returning to the Ning family and resuming her position as the Eldest Young Miss of the Ning family, it’ll prevent people from saying she’s a social climber who’s clinging to the Mu family.”

When Ning Dong spoke, he lowered his head as though he was trying to hide his tears. His words attracted the attention of Jiang Jin, Ning Zhe, and Jiang Jin.

Su Tong laughed. “This child of mine. He has always been worried about his sister; that’s why he said such words…”

Mu Chen looked at Ning Dong and smiled faintly. “You don’t have to think that way. I’m the one who’s clinging to her. I’ll make sure to make her happy for the rest of her life…”

A flash of indescribable emotion flashed in Ning Dong’s eyes. It was as though he had completed his mission, he returned to acting like a statue again.

The three members of the Ning family did not stay for long before they decided to leave.

Mu Chen was polite and sent the guests out. When he entered the house, he saw Song Ning standing in the corridor waiting for him. However, her expression was not very good. He smiled and pulled her into his arms. “Why are you standing here? You’re wearing such light clothing; what if you catch a cold?”

As Mu Chen pushed Song Ning into the house, she looked at him and smiled bitterly. “Mu Chen, I’ve tried. I can’t accept them no matter what…”

Mu Chen hugged her. “I understand. Then let nature take its course. You have me, Grandma, and our family. I’ll be responsible for your happiness in the future!”

Song Ning leaned against him and said softly, “I know. He’s just a child, but… but that year, it was because of him that my mother suffered a miscarriage. Even if he was a child at that time, I can’t forgive him because my biological brother is gone.” She could not hold back her tears when she spoke about this.

Mu Chen quickly coaxed her. “Don’t cry, don’t cry. Grandma said that we have to be happy on the first day of the new year. This way, we’ll be happy the entire year. If you cry, won’t it rain the entire year? There’s no need for you to overthink things. We can just live the life we want. Just follow your heart and do what you want. Grandma and I will always support you…”

Song Ning took the piece of tissue from Mu Chen and wiped her tears. “After my mother left, I spent the new year alone. This is the first since then that I spent it with so many people…”

Mu Chen was surprised. “Didn’t the Fu family invite you to join them?”

Song Ning shook her head. “The Old Madam of the Fu family thinks my parents are all dead so she considers me unlucky. How could she invite me to the house on an auspicious day?”

Mu Chen thought the Fu family was worse than beasts. How despicable. He wished they would vanish off the face of the earth. They never treated her well and took her for granted, but when they needed her, they shamelessly came to her.

In comparison, Ning Zhe was rather smart. He knew he had to change his attitude.. Unfortunately, the scar he left on Song Ning was too deep. Moreover, how could he move Song Ning with his fake feelings?
