Chapter 535: Not as Cute as My Niece

Nie Yun began to scold Jian Yichen: “You didn’t even tell me that you were going to the capital! In fact, you didn’t say a single word to us! Is your skin itching? I’ll smack you into place when we get home!”

Upon hearing this, Jian Yichen retorted: “Well, my older brother also left without saying a word last time! Why aren’t you smacking him into place!”

“Why are you even asking that? Isn’t that obvious? If I smack you, you will be the one who is in pain. On the other hand, if I smack him... My hand will be in pain!”

Jian Yichen helplessly touched his nose.

Ahhh. All right then... He was easier to bully.

His mother was bullying him because he wasn’t as buff as his brother.

After arguing with her son, Nie Yun turned around to speak to Jian Yiling.

“Yiling~ You’ve been very mean in the past two years. You’re not even home during Chinese New Year! Ahhh. I didn’t have the chance to see you... I didn’t have the chance to touch your cute little face~”

“However, you’re amazing! You skipped a grade and you’re studying medicine! In fact, you have such a good mentor as well! You’re the pride of our Jian family! You’re much better than my disappointing sons.”

However, Nie Yun’s ‘disappointing’ sons had achieved a lot as well. The older one had won numerous taekwondo championships. He had enough trophies and certificates to fill an entire wall.

On the other hand, the young one appeared to be wasting his days. However, he had established a company and an organization on his own.

However, that didn’t matter. Both of them weren’t as cute as her niece.

When Nie Yun was in the room, the atmosphere of the ward felt lively.

Grandma Jian began to smile more as well.

Then, Nie Yun noticed that Jian Yunnao was standing in a corner. He hadn’t said a single word. In fact, Jian Yunnao looked dead inside.

“Yunnao? What’s wrong? Why do you look so tired? Do you feel okay?”

“I’m... I’m fine,” Jian Yunnao replied.

However, he did not look up.

He did not dare to look at Nie Yun and Jian Yiling.

He didn’t know how he was going to face the two of them.

“Are you sure? We’re at the hospital anyway. We can let the doctor take a look at you.”

“I’m fine,” Jian Yunnao repeated. Then, he got up in a hurry, “I need to go back to school. I just remembered that I need to take care of something.”

After Jian Yunnao left the room, Nie Yun asked: “What’s wrong with him? Is that child in love or something? Is he troubled by puberty? Why is he acting so strange?”

Later at night, Zhai Yunsheng and Jian Yiling were both working in the study room. Suddenly, Jian Yichen called Jian Yiling. He asked Jian Yiling to visit him.

Jian Yichen’s words were vague and ambiguous in the phone call. It sounded as though he was drunk.

And thus, Jian Yiling went over to check up on him.

Jian Yiling used her fingerprint on the fingerprint padlock. Then, she opened the door and entered Jian Yichen’s apartment.

After she entered, she saw a drunken Jian Yichen.

Jian Yichen was rolling around on the floor. His phone was next to his hand.

There was an empty bottle of wine and half a glass of wine on the coffee table.

Although his eyes were open, the look in Jian Yichen’s eyes was hazy.

He was indeed drunk.

And thus, Jian Yiling decided to help Jian Yichen clean up the mess.

“Yiing, I’m really glad that Grandma Jian is okay,” Jian Yichen said.

Then, he started pouting: “Yiling, please be a good girl. Please stay with me. As long as you stay with me, I will be your sister. I will be your beautiful sister. I just want you to live...”

When he was drunk, Jian Yichen’s actions were quite cute.

However, upon hearing the last sentence, Jian Yiling froze.
