Upon hearing that, both Madam Ji and Patriarch Ji shook their heads. Nie Linglong spoke the truth.
Ever since Worriless Nie was found and returned to the Nie family, she hadn't stepped foot in the Ji residence or sought Ji Xiuran out for a reunion.
If this was the past, Worriless Nie would've wished nothing more than to live at the Ji estate every day, and her eyes would be glued to Ji Xiuran even when eating.
Ji Xiuran had an indescribable smile on his lips and he sent a fleeting glance to Nie Linglong but didn't say anything.
On the side, Ye Wanwan gritted her teeth in fury. Ji Xiuran was absolutely a piece of scum!
She was sitting right next to him, but he remained intricately entangled with the Nie sisters!
Thankfully, she wasn't the president of the Fearless Alliance, Bai Feng, or else the top of her head would've turned into the Siberian grassland...
"Ah, Tangtang is a pitiful child too. He was abandoned at home after Sister gave birth to him and hasn't felt his parents' love since he was born. It would be fine if that was it, but Tangtang still doesn't know who his biological father is..." Nie Linglong's eyes looked misty, as though her heart immensely ached for Tangtang.
"What deep sisterly affections you two have," Ji Xiuran commented with a smile.
Nie Linglong gently nodded. "I'm the most grateful to Sister Worriless in this world. If it weren't for Sister Worriless... I would've died a long time ago... Of course I hope for Sister Worriless to be happy from the bottom of my heart... So it's wonderful now that Sister Worriless is home... and has Tangtang for company."
"Linglong, while your Sister Worriless wasn't home all these years, it was you who took care of Tangtang by yourself and didn't even have time to find a boyfriend. It's been hard on you." Madam Ji looked at Nie Linglong with heartache on her face.
"It would be nothing even if I'm single my whole life for my sister's sake." Nie Linglong donned a docile demeanor.
"Your Sister Worriless is lucky to have a sensible and clever sister like you," Patriarch Ji said with a smile.
"Uncle Ji, I'm just doing what a sister should. Anyway, if it weren't for Sister, I would've died already. I'm the one who's lucky to be Sister's younger sister," Nie Linglong replied.
"Let's talk about something else." Ji Xiuran's slender fingers lightly tapped the arm of his chair.
