Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Her most beloved granddaughter had returned.
Thinking of this, Cai Shufang felt that she was already content. “I’m content just by being able to see you and your child,” Cai Shufang comforted Yu Anwan, appearing more open-minded.
Yu Anwan’s eyes welled up with tears. “Grandma, don’t say that. You have to watch them grow up.”
Cai Shufang chuckled, but her laughter sounded weaker.
“Grandma, please hold on. I’ll come to see you tomorrow morning,” Yu Anwan said, her voice choked with sobs.
“Don’t cry, Anwan. It hurts grandma to see you cry.” Cai Shufang’s voice was intermittent.
Yu Anwan knew that Cai Shufang couldn’t endure for too long, so she didn’t want to keep her grandmother on the line and the nurse promptly ended the call.
“I’m sorry, Miss Yu, but the old lady cannot talk for too long.” the nurse apologized.
In the nurse’s opinion, Yu Anwan seemed much more compassionate than the rest of the Yu family.
“Please take good care of grandmother, and I’ll come over tomorrow morning. If anything happens, please inform me immediately. Thank you,” Yu Anwan instructed carefully.
“Miss Yu, don’t worry,” the nurse replied.
After ending the call, Yu Anwan still held her phone tightly in her hand, standing there motionless.
After a while, she turned to head back to the villa, only to unexpectedly see Wen Jin standing behind her.
Yu Anwan’s eyes were still teary, and she didn’t expect Wen Jin to see her vulnerable side.
Without hesitation, Yu Anwan quickly wiped her tears away and looked at Wen Jin as if she were ready for a fight.
Wen Jin could sense Yu Anwan’s resistance, but he didn’t seem to be bothered by it.
He took a step forward.
“What are you doing?” Yu Anwan asked Wen Jin warily.
Wen Jin was now standing in front of Yu Anwan. Ignoring her wariness, his well-defined fingers naturally lifted her chin, compelling her to look at him.
“Wen Jin!” Yu Anwan frowned.
“Whose call was it? Why are you crying?” Wen Jin asked calmly, his voice slightly husky.
In Wen Jin’s words, there was gentleness and concern hidden between the lines, a stark contrast to his previous angry demeanor.
Yu Anwan was taken aback, not expecting Wen Jin to be so tender and caring.
In her view, such behavior was unimaginable in the past and would be impossible in the future, unless Wen Jin had undergone some bizarre transformation.
However, Yu Anwan quickly regained her composure and pushed away Wen
Jin’s hand with a dismissive tone. “It’s none of your business.”
She didn’t want to waste time arguing with Wen Jin. Besides, Yu Anwan would never beg him for anything, so there was no need for further conversation.
Wen Jin frowned when his hand was pushed away, feeling somewhat displeased.
As Yu Anwan passed by him, Wen Jin held her hand firmly. “Is it because of your grandmother?”
Wen Jin was no fool.
He could guess to some extent that the only thing capable of affecting Yu Anwan’s emotions was related to Cai Shufang.
“Didn’t you already look for Dr. Grace?” Wen Jin asked directly, “What are you worried about?”
“It’s none of your business,” Yu Anwan replied with a still harsh tone.
As she tried to free her hand from Wen Jin’s grasp, the inherent difference in strength between men and women made it impossible for her to move him an inch. Instead, she found herself inadvertently drawn into Wen Jin’s embrace.
This made Yu Anwan feel somewhat embarrassed.
Wen Jin raised an eyebrow as he looked at the woman in his arms, her soft and fragrant touch causing him to feel a lack of self-control.
He felt the impulse to kiss Yu Anwan.
However, no matter how beastly Wen Jin’s desires might be, he couldn’t bring himself to act on them in front of Yu Anwan.
In the end, Wen Jin’s calloused fingertips gently wiped the skin under Yu Anwan’s eyes. His actions were incredibly gentle, to the point where Yu Anwan felt a bit dazed.
She was momentarily confused, almost believing that the person before her wasn’t Wen Jin.
Or maybe Wen Jin had been possessed by a ghost.
Without retaliating, Yu Anwan allowed Wen Jin to continue caressing her skin tenderly.
But when Yu Anwan started feeling a little uneasy about the situation, she finally mustered enough irritation to push Wen Jin’s hand away. “President
Wen, keep your hands off my face.”
Though her tone remained gruff and aggressive, there was a hint of indifference, making it seem like she wasn’t genuinely angry with Wen Jin.
Normally, Wen Jin would have already gotten into a fight with Yu Anwan.
However, under such circumstances, Wen Jin’s palms paused for a moment. His deep eyes fell on Yu Anwan, but surprisingly, he didn’t get angry.
Yu Anwan stood there composedly.
n Jin lowered her gaze and happened to see the neckline of Yu Anwan’s halter dress. It was very low, revealing some skin.
In the next moment, without saying a word, Wen Jin took off his clothes and draped them over Yu Anwan. His voice regained his composure as he said, “It’s windy. Put these on. I don’t want you to catch a cold and infect me!”
“You…” Yu Anwan glared at Wen Jin.
The clothes carried a faint scent of lavender mixed with a hint of tobacco. Yu Anwan didn’t particularly like the smell of cigarettes, but she noticed that her tolerance level seemed higher when it came to Wen Jin.
However, in this situation, Yu Anwan felt at a disadvantage. She was about to retort when Wen Jin’s calm voice cut through.
“Yu Anwan, I remember you have a close relationship with your grandmother.” Wen Jin mentioned Cai Shufang.
In Wen Jin’s memory, Yu Anwan and Cai Shufang had a very good relationship. Even during the few years, they were married, Yu Anwan would go back to accompany Cai Shufang on her birthday or some important festivals. Cai Shufang didn’t live with the Yu family. Instead, she stayed alone at the old residence, which Yu Anwan found peaceful, and would often stay there for nearly half a month whenever she visited.
During those times, Wen Jin never interfered because he didn’t care about Yu Anwan’s actions.
Yu Anwan didn’t expect Wen Jin to bring up Cai Shufang. She merely nodded and didn’t deny his words.
“How is your grandmother doing now?” Wen Jin asked.
“She’s fine,” Yu Anwan replied curtly. “I’ll take care of it.”
Despite her prickly exterior, Yu Anwan couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy. She instinctively believed that Wen Jin brought up Cai Shufang because of Professor Grace.
He was still testing her.
After all, Wen Zhanming couldn’t wait for too long, and Yu Anwan was well aware of this.
However, to her surprise, Wen Jin didn’t mention Professor Grace again. His gaze remained calm as he observed Yu Anwan.
Yu Anwan felt uncomfortable being stared at and retorted, “What are you looking at? If you have something to say, spit it out!”
Her tone was still impolite and tinged with wariness..
