It was already rather late when Song Ning and Mu Chen got home, but Jiang Jin was still waiting for them.
Upon seeing this, Song Ning could not help but feel guilty.
Mu Chen said, "Grandma, it's so late now, why aren't you resting? We had work to do earlier. We tend to lose track of time when we're busy. Don't wait up for us next time, okay?"
Jiang Jin held Song Ning's hand and replied to Mu Chen, "It's fine. Elderly people don't need much sleep anyway. I just want to see both of you so I feel at ease." Then, she asked Song Ning, "Ning, have you had dinner? Mu Chen is made from iron so it's not difficult for him to stay up for a few nights in a row. However, you're a girl. You have to make sure you don't tire yourself out by overworking, understand?"
Song Ning's heart was warmed by Jiang Jin's concern.
Mu Chen looked at the duo with a smile. He was very happy to see their harmonious relationship.
At this moment, Song Ning bit her lower lip as though she had made up her mind. Following that, she looked at Jiang Jin and said, "Grandma, there's something I want to tell you..."
Although Jiang Jin was slightly taken aback, she was filled with joy. "What is it? Tell me! I'll do anything for you. I only have one precious granddaughter-in-law, after all. Even if you want the stars and the moon, I'll try to get them for you!"
Song Ning was both amused and touched by Jiang Jin's words. "Grandma, there's something I want to tell you; it's about me. I didn't say anything before this because I didn't think it was important."
Song Ning told Jiang Jin she was Ning Xia and briefly recounted the past to Jiang Jin.
Jiang Jin and Yu could not stop sighing as they listened to Song Ning.
After Song Ning finished speaking, Jiang Jin hugged Song Ning and patted Song Ning's back. "Poor child. You must have suffered a lot in the past years. If only we'd known about you earlier."
After pulling away from the hug, Jiang Jin wiped away the tears from her eyes and held Song Ning's hand as she solemnly promised, "Song Ning, forget those unhappy things. Grandma won't let you suffer anymore. No one's allowed to bully my granddaughter-in-law!"
After saying that, Jiang Jin turned to look at Mu Chen who was sitting across from her. "Not even my grandson is allowed to bully you! Remember this; from now on, you'll always have my support!"
Mu Chen smiled with a hint of helplessness and amusement as he said, "Song Ning, you have to be like Grandma. When she was your age, she was very fierce. No one dared to provoke her at all."
