Chapter 306 Jiang An said Jiang Ruan was her pride.

Chapter 306 Jiang An said Jiang Ruan was her pride.

"Just now..." Jiang Ruan didn't know how to describe her feelings.

"Ignore him." Jiang An saw through her thoughts at a glance. After all, he was her child. "Just treat him like a free beast of burden with delusions and mental instability."

Jiang Ruan didn't say much, just nodded: "Okay."

She stopped getting involved in the disputes between adults.

My mother's experience and abilities far surpass hers, and she has always supported her choices.

"Let me hug my pride." Jiang An opened his arms to her, his eyes filled with tenderness and warmth.

Jiang Ruan was taken aback.

Jiang An hugged her.

For a moment, Jiang Ruan was lost in thought as she was enveloped in warmth.

My mother said... she is her pride.

"You've worked so hard these past few days." Jiang An's embrace was warm, and she felt sorry for the child who had been running around so much. "Get some rest now, and don't push yourself too hard."

There are things she didn't say, but that doesn't mean she didn't care.

Watching his daughter, whom he had cherished and raised, go out into the world to face all kinds of hardships, he was very worried. At this moment, he couldn't understand even more how Mr. Qin had been so ruthless in forcing her to do whatever it took to achieve his goal.

But none of that matters now.

She already has Ruan Ruan, a very important member of her family.

"Okay," Jiang Ruan agreed.

"I want a hug too." Sui Sui ran in and stretched out her little hands to them, her round eyes were so cute.

Jiang Ruan and Jiang An looked over, then smiled and picked him up.

The family was enjoying a happy and warm time together.

Ten minutes later.

Jiang Ruan was "kicked out" of this warm little group.

At the desk, Sui Sui pointed at the computer and asked Jiang An, "Grandma, I still don't quite know how to do this. I've tried several times but still couldn't crack it."

“I’ll teach you.” Jiang An sat down next to him, her fingers tapping on the keyboard. “This bug is hidden quite deep. Let’s crack this first and then go deeper.”

Sui Sui clapped her hands: "Grandma is so amazing!"

Jiang An's face was full of doting affection: "My darling is the best!"

Jiang Ruan: "???"

Jiang Ruan stared at the strings of code on the computer screen, lost in thought.

Her gaze swept back and forth between her mother and child, and finally, as Sui Sui's little hands began to tap away on the keyboard, she couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing...?"

Jiang An put her index finger to her lips: "Shh."

Every year, she focuses intently on the computer.

This was the first time in Jiang Ruan's life that she had been so neglected, especially by her beloved mother and child.

She tactfully gave them some space, closing the door as she left the study. Just as she was about to go downstairs to see if Qin Muchuan and the others had left, she was startled by Li Zhishen, who was standing silently outside the door.

Why is there a person here?!

"Did I scare you?" Li Zhishen asked in a low voice.

Jiang Ruan nodded.

I didn't see it when I came out, but I bumped into it when I turned around.

Anyone would be terrified.

"I'm sorry." Li Zhishen's attitude was very good. "In order to be able to appear in time when your mother needs me, I usually stay outside the door like an invisible person."

Jiang Ruan hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

This doesn't seem to be called an invisible man, but rather...

She stopped herself from thinking about it further, as it would have been somewhat impolite.

“Sui Sui has been learning hacking techniques from An An all this time.” Li Zhishen overheard part of the conversation and took the initiative to chat with her. “She has already made some progress.”

Jiang Ruan nodded slightly.

I can see that.

Those strings of code and pages that she couldn't understand could only be related to computers.

"Ruan Ruan." Li Zhishen looked at her, his thin lips hesitant to speak.

Jiang Ruan looked up and bumped into him.

Li Zhishen raised his hands slightly, his dark, deep eyes looking at her with a variety of emotions: "Dad is very proud to have a daughter like you. Can Dad hug you too?"

Jiang Ruan paused.

Without hesitation, she refused: "No."

"Okay." Li Zhishen wasn't embarrassed at all, decisively withdrawing his hand and changing the subject, "Do you need me to get rid of the people below for you?"

Jiang Ruan hadn't spoken yet, only her red lips parted slightly.

Li Zhishen then provided the answer himself: "I will ask them to leave now."

After saying that, he turned and walked downstairs, decisively and cleanly.

Jiang Ruan: "???"

Jiang Ruan felt like her brain was a little slow to process what she was going through.

She hadn't been out of contact with her family for a month. When she didn't come home on weekends, she video-chatted with Sui Sui every night. When she came home, everything was normal. Now that Sui Sui has become a hacker kid, Chairman Li has become more easygoing.

Everything is very different from before.

She suppressed her emotions and walked downstairs, silently processing everything in her mind.

The Li Zhishen who came downstairs was completely different from the one upstairs. His aura changed almost instantly, and he showed no politeness to Qin Muchuan at all: "Patriarch Qin, if there is nothing else, please leave. My family of four has something to discuss."

Qin Muchuan: "?"

Qin Mo: "?"

Both of them looked at him with suspicion.

Even Qin Mo's icy expression showed a subtle change.

"A family of four?" Qin Muchuan repeated his words.

Li Zhishen's narrow eyes were very imposing: "Any objections?"

Qin Muchuan: "Ruan Ruan called you Dad?"

Li Zhishen: "..."

Qin Muchuan: "Qin An forgave you?"

Li Zhishen: "..."

Sometimes, without enough support from my wife and daughter, things become less convenient.

Qin Muchuan said, "According to you, Ruanruan and I are a family of five. After all, she calls me uncle, so we are the real family."

Li Zhishen exuded a cool aura.

Qin Mo knew Li Zhishen well, so he nudged Qin Muchuan with his elbow and said, "Ahem."

"What are you coughing for?" Qin Muchuan had been overshadowed by Li Zhishen for almost his entire life. In their youth, Qin An and Li Zhishen had stolen all his limelight. "I'm not wrong. After what he did back then, could Qin An forgive him?"

Qin Muchuan finally found a way to put him down and wouldn't let it slip by: "Don't even mention a family of four. If Qin An can forgive him, I'll twist my head off and let him kick it like a ball."

"Please don't take it to heart," Qin Mo said to Li Zhishen. "My dad has a bit of a temper and is prone to saying things without thinking."

Qin Muchuan was about to retort on the spot.

Qin Mo glanced at him.

Qin Muchuan stopped himself from saying what he was about to say. It wasn't that he was afraid of his son, but he didn't want to argue in front of outsiders.

“I don’t care,” Li Zhishen said.

Qin Mo nodded slightly.

The next second.

Li Zhishen took out his phone and made a call: "Four people come in and drag Qin Muchuan out. We don't welcome sewer rats here."

"Li Zhishen! Don't go too far!" Qin Muchuan had never suffered such humiliation before.

“Uncle Li.” Qin Mo’s eyes were slightly cold.

“This is a dispute between your father and me. I advise you not to get involved.” Li Zhishen’s thin lips parted slightly. His height, nearly nine times that of the other man, gave him a strong presence. “If you get involved, it will become a battle between the Qin family and the Li family.”

Qin Mo wanted to say something more.

Li Zhishen's bodyguards have already entered.

Looking at the four burly men who exuded a strong sense of intimidation, Qin Muchuan, for the sake of his reputation, decisively said, "You don't need to worry about me, I can walk by myself."

He stormed off, looking at Li Zhishen as if he were an enemy.
