Jiang Yining calmly placed her last white stone on the Go board with a happy smile. “I’ve won, Grandpa Lu.”
“Old man me admit defeat,” Old Master Lu submitted readily, without putting on any airs of an elder.
“Let’s play another game,” Jiang Yining said wiggling her fingers. “But let’s make a bet this time.”
“What would you like?” Old Master Lu asked nonchalantly, thinking that she would probably like some kind of jewelry or other expensive things.
Jiang Yining’s clear and sincere eyes met his. “Grandpa, tell me about Beicheng.”
Old Master Lu’s hand that was holding a Go stone paused mid-air. “Why are you asking me about him?”
“I heard from the servants at home that Ah Zhi has a younger brother called Beicheng. But I’ve never met him, so I’m a little curious. I asked Ah Zhi before, but he refused to tell me anything and even lost his temper.” Jiang Yining sighed softly and continued, “I think Ah Zhi has some unresolved feelings about his younger brother. I’d like to find out more about Beicheng. Maybe I can help Ah Zhi.”
“You’re so thoughtful.”
Old Master Lu felt that his granddaughter-in-law was a good person.
“So, Grandpa is promising to tell me about Beicheng?”
Jiang Yining winked playfully.
Old Master Lu nodded. “You need to beat me first before I share any information.”
“Game on, Grandpa.”
Jiang Yining made an “all-in” pose.
Old Master Lu laughed out loud. “Alright.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter losing the game, Old Master Lu told Jiang Yining about Lu Beicheng and also about Lu Zhi.
Jiang Yining learned from him that Mrs. Lu personally raised Lu Beicheng while Chen Qinglian and the old madam raised Lu Zhi. However, the two brothers weren’t estranged because of that. Instead, they were very close.
Back then, Lu Beicheng had indeed been with Lin Yan.
Unfortunately, the entire Lu family was against their relationship.
Especially Old Madam Lu, who didn’t like Lin Yan’s family background and insisted that Beicheng break up with Lin Yan and marry a young miss from a prestigious family.
Because of that, Lu Beicheng got into a fight with his family and ran away with Lin Yan.
Not long after, the family received a ransom note from the kidnappers, asking them to pay 10 billion yuan to get Beicheng back.
The Lu family urgently raised sufficient money, but the kidnappers never contacted them again.
After that…
Lu Zhi turned A-City upside down searching for his younger brother.
But they found neither Lu Beicheng nor the kidnappers until today.
“Grandpa, don’t be sad.” Jiang Yining consoled.
Old Master Lu shook his head and said, “I was indeed very sad in the past, but I’ve made peace with this. No news is good news. Beicheng was a very clever child. No matter where he is, he’s able to take care of himself. He’ll come home when he’s had enough fun outside. He might even bring me back a grandson.”
“Yes, he will definitely come back.”
Lin Yan would also return safely.
Jiang Yining added silently in her heart.
Old Master Lu looked at Jiang Yining and said, “Granddaughter-in-law, my Ah Zhi has also suffered a lot. He looks cold and indifferent, like he doesn’t care about anyone. But I know that he values relationship more than anyone else. Once he liked someone, he would give up everything for her, including his life. Live well with him. Don’t let him down.”
Jiang Yining paused for two seconds and said, “Grandpa, I will.”
She felt guilty the moment she said that.
She would never really be with Lu Zhi, and she shouldn’t lie to an old man.
“Don’t worry too much about your grandmother’s opinion. She’s a stubborn old fogey who values family background. But she and I are both old; we won’t be in your way for too long.”
Old Master Lu knew his wife very well and understood her actions, but there was nothing he could do.
They had been married for more than 50 years, and their children and grandchildren were all grown-ups.
He couldn’t divorce her, right?
He could only persuade the young ones in private.
“Okay,” Jiang Yining agreed.
Old Master Lu put away the Go set and said, “Alright, I’ve had enough of Go today. Let’s go for a walk.”
“Sure.”
Jiang Yining stood up and followed Old Master Lu.
However, before they moved far, Old Madam Lu brought some people with her and walked over with a gloomy expression.
Jiang Yining frowned slightly.
“How dare you come to the old Lu residence?” Old Madam Lu reprimanded her sternly. “You’ve caused Kexin so much trouble. Don’t you have any shame?”
Chen Kexin hadn’t been eating or drinking the past few days, and her condition had deteriorated. She was skin and bones.
Old Madam Lu’s heart felt as if it had been dropped into a frying pan. It was extremely unbearable! But since she couldn’t get Lu Zhi to come over and persuade Kexin to receive treatment, she could only vent her anger on Jiang Yining.
She took a step forward and grabbed Jiang Yining’s arm roughly. “Go and apologize to Kexin now!”
Jiang Yining said coldly, “I didn’t do anything wrong. Why should I apologize to her?”

Old Master Lu couldn’t stand it anymore and said, “Ah Zhi told me what happened that day. No matter how much you love Kexin, you can’t turn black into white.”
“My, my, look at you! And Ah Zhi! How long have both of you known her? And you are speaking up for her?” Old Madam Lu continued sarcastically, “Ah Zhi will only side with this woman. What makes you think that he told you the whole truth? It was her fault that night. She was the one who behaved inappropriately and caused Kexin to be kicked out in public and lose face! Therefore, she must apologize to Kexin!”
“Follow me!”
Old Madam Lu wanted to pull Jiang Yining with her but Jiang Yining stood still.
She wasn’t as strong as Lu Zhi, but she had been trained.
Three Old Mrs. Lu wouldn’t be able to pull her along.
“Why are all of you still standing there? Drag her away!”
Old Madam Lu had no choice but to order a few servants to help her.
The servants rushed forward.
Old Master Lu couldn’t stand it anymore. He stood in front of Jiang Yining and shouted, “Let’s see who dares to touch this girl!”
“What? You’ve suddenly found the backbone to go against me for an outsider?” Old Madam Lu cursed angrily.
“There is no outsider versus insider in my eyes. Just reasonableness and unreasonableness. If you continue to make trouble without reason, I’ll send Kexin away to save the family from future unrest.” Old Master Lu answered fiercely.
Old Madam Lu was stunned for a full two seconds before she suddenly burst into tears. “You b*stard! Kexin has lived with us for so many years. She’s like a granddaughter to us! You actually want to kick her out? You are heartless!”
Old Master Lu replied, “I usually indulge you no matter how much trouble you make, but I will not give in to this matter today!”
Old Madam Lu refused to listen. She just covered the face and continued to cry.
Old Master Lu then said to Jiang Yining, “Granddaughter-in-law, go home now and ignore her.”
Jiang Yining nodded and started walking.
Seeing this, Old Madam Lu rushed forward and hugged her husband. At the same time, she ordered, “Drag her to Kexin’s room and make her apologize to Kexin.”
“You…”
Old Master Lu wanted to stop this farce but before he could finish his sentence, Old Madam Lu covered his mouth.
The head servant saw the look in her eyes and quickly brought the other servants to surround Jiang Yining..
