The two walked in one after another, with Mu Jiuchen acting as if Lin Su didn't exist.
Lin Su, treated like air, was unwilling. She actually wanted to discuss Jiang Nuan with Mu Jiuchen, but Mu Jiuchen wouldn't even speak to her.
In the entire Jin City, only she, Lin Su, was worthy of Mu Jiuchen.
Jiang Nuan was beautiful, and perhaps her brother Chen was temporarily infatuated with her.
She had known Mu Jiuchen since childhood. He had never truly cared for any woman, let alone eaten with them.
But Jiang Nuan had eaten with him, which made her very jealous.
He Mingrun had been waiting for Jiang Nuan to arrive. Upon seeing her, he smiled happily.
"Miss Jiang, my grandmother has woken up."
Jiang Nuan nodded slightly. This was expected. If the old lady hadn't woken up, she wouldn't dare to treat her.
"Alright, we'll continue with acupuncture today." Jiang Nuan didn't want to waste time. She hadn't been in debt for a long time, and this situation made her question life.
Lin Su, who had just entered, overheard this.
"Hmph!" she snorted. It must be a coincidence.
She couldn't go into the backyard and could only watch as Mu Jiuchen and He Mingrun took Jiang Nuan to the backyard.
She could only wait for them in the living room.
The butler saw Lin Su arrive again and could only arrange for a servant to serve tea. He didn't know why this big star was so idle and came here so often.
These wealthy young ladies were not to be trifled with, so he could only serve them with all his heart.
In the backyard, in Madam He's room, the old lady who had just woken up was still a bit weak, but she had tidied herself up to be elegant and dignified.
A jade hairpin of a verdant green held up her noble bun, and wearing a deep red suit, she was grand and elegant.
"Madam He, hello, I am Jiang Nuan," Jiang Nuan greeted politely.
The old lady smiled kindly, glanced at the little Mu Jiuchen following behind her, and her eyes flickered.
"Miss Jiang, I've heard about you from Mingrun. Thank you; I can talk to you like this."
Jiang Nuan: "Old Madam, you will recover soon. Please have some ginger tea to drive away the cold."
This was the ginger tea Jiang Nuan had prepared in advance.
Madam He didn't dislike it. She took it and drank a sip, feeling much more energetic. She felt it was quite miraculous and finished the entire cup of tea.
"It's delicious, I feel so relaxed."
Jiang Nuan smiled and said, "Old Madam, I'll go and decoct the medicine."
"Alright, thank you for your trouble, Miss Jiang."
Madam He looked at He Mingrun, "Run'er, entertain Miss Jiang well."
"I understand, Grandma."
After He Mingrun finished speaking, he took Jiang Nuan to the courtyard to decoct the medicine.
Mu Jiuchen watched them leave together. He sat beside Madam He, his expression unusually gentle, "Grandma, you'll be alright."
Madam He nodded. "I'm fine. I feel quite energetic now. You and Run'er are not married yet, and I don't want anything to happen to me."
Madam He glanced at Jiang Nuan and He Mingrun in the courtyard and smiled mysteriously.
Mu Jiuchen looked at her, feeling that her smile held a hidden meaning.
"Little Mu Jiuchen, I think Miss Jiang is a good person, quite suitable for Run'er. What do you think?"
Mu Jiuchen's face suddenly darkened, and his tone became cold. Mu Jiuchen had this kind of personality; he didn't like others coveting his people or possessions.
"Grandma, how can He Mingrun be worthy of Miss Jiang? Miss Jiang is still young, and He Mingrun is an old cow eating tender grass..."
Mu Jiuchen trailed off as he spoke.
He... seemed to be the same age as He Mingrun.
Cough cough cough...!
That "uncle" was appropriate!
At this moment, Mu Jiuchen had contradicted himself.
He had escalated a minor issue into a major principle, and he was defeated!
Madam He was quite shocked by his words. When had little Mu Jiuchen started to care about other people's affairs?
She narrowed her eyes, her discerning gaze scrutinizing him. Seeing him lower his gaze, he seemed somewhat annoyed.
"What old cow eating tender grass? I think they two are quite a match. Look at them in the courtyard, talking and laughing. Aren't they a good match?"
Mu Jiuchen forced himself to look at the man and woman in the courtyard. They were indeed talking and laughing, and he didn't know what they were discussing.
What if he wanted to hit He Mingrun?
Madam He saw his angry expression and understood everything.
In fact, what worried her most was the introverted little Jiu.
"Little Jiu, Grandma doesn't know how much time she has left, but Grandma still wants to see you happy." Madam He said earnestly.
As she grew older, she only wished for her children and grandchildren to be happy and healthy.
She had long seen through life and death, living day by day. However, little Jiu had been lonely since childhood and didn't have many friends.
Only Run'er and Mingxin were closer to him.
Li Qingzhuo was abroad, and he lacked someone who could truly open his heart to.
"Grandma, you don't need to worry about these things. Focus on recovering. Trust me, you will see that day." Mu Jiuchen trusted Jiang Nuan, unconditionally.
"You..." Madam He didn't say much more. Some topics were best left unsaid; children would get annoyed if they heard too much.
She had been young too and had found her parents nagging. As she grew older, she stopped being so talkative.
In the afternoon, Jiang Nuan prepared medicine for a few more days. After performing acupuncture on Madam He, the old lady fell asleep with a comfortable smile.
Jiang Nuan instructed He Mingrun on how to administer the medicine and then left the He family.
She didn't see Mu Jiuchen when she left. He Mingrun said he had a meeting at his company and had to rush back.
Coincidentally, Jiang Nuan didn't want to travel with him anyway.
"Jiang Nuan."
As Jiang Nuan was about to get into the car, she turned around to see Lin Su.
Jiang Nuan, seeing the "white lotus" looking for trouble again, felt tired and annoyed.
"Miss Lin, is there something?"
Lin Su tilted her swan-like neck and walked towards her haughtily.
"Jiang Nuan, your methods are truly brilliant. You actually used such tricks to seduce brother Chen." When no one was around, Lin Su never disguised herself.
Jiang Nuan smiled casually at her, "I'm this beautiful, why would I need to seduce him? A smile from Ninth Master is enough to make him come to my side automatically."
After speaking, Jiang Nuan saw Lin Su's stunned face and smiled, then drove away.
From the rearview mirror, she could still see Lin Su's multicolored face, standing there dumbfounded.
Her car was still drivable. After Xiao Fan handled his affairs, she had found a designated driver to drive her here. It was inconvenient to get in and out of the He family without a car.
Jiang Nuan drove directly to the restaurant. The other party had already sent the room number.
She wanted to see who had investigated her identity so thoroughly.
At the appointed time, Jiang Nuan was punctual in the private room.
Outside, Xiao Fan watched Jiang Nuan go in and immediately called Mu Jiuchen.
"Sir, Miss Jiang has gone in."
Mu Jiuchen: "Got it. I'm right opposite their room. Come up."
Xiao Fan, who was shocked, thought, "..." The president kept breaking his understanding of things these days.
Jiang Nuan pushed the door open. The man sitting inside had a devilishly handsome appearance and a rebellious aura. Although he didn't have the vulgarity of a businessman, just sitting there, the powerful presence he exuded made people dare not ignore him.
Jiang Nuan's eyes flickered, and a startling name flashed through her mind.
