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, I’ll 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 don’t 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 ass-kissing, his cold attitude could be on par with Chu Ningyi’s.

Chu Ningyi lowered his gaze and noticed a small jade pendant around the little darling’s neck. It now made sense why his son was kissing up so much. That jade pendant was a part of his father’s 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 weren’t 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 yesterday’s incident about? What’s 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. “Aren’t you supposed to know everything?”

“I have nothing against you helping her but there’s no need for you to drag the company’s money out to fill a nearly-bankrupt company. Won’t 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.

“That’s the embodiment of Luoluo’s grandfather’s 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, I’ll rebuild it soon enough.”

“You…” He Xiaoran’s son has angered her again. She turned back toward her husband and complained, “Look at your son, he wants to use the company’s 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.

“Didn’t he tell you? He’ll rebuild it. What’re you so worried about?” Chu Mobai said as he reached his hand out to pinch the little darling’s cheeks.

“Gurgle…” The little darling looked up, smiled and drooled.

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

“Ever since Shui Anluo had come back, I noticed that you’ve stopped making any sensible decisions. Do you want to pay for an entire company just for her? I have no objections about what you’ve done for her. After all, she’s Luoning’s mother but that isn’t 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 Xiaoran’s 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.
