Chapter 249: Waiting for Yiling

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

As Grandpa Jian spoke, he was holding an orchid in his hands. He cradled the pot plant and appeared to be incredibly concerned about the flower in his arms.

“Old man! Why do you not care about your grandchildren’s matters?! What’s the use of worrying about your damn orchids?!” Grandma Jian cried out in anger.

“What do you mean damn orchids? Yiling saved this orchid for me! It almost died some time ago. I had lost all hope for it. However, our darling nursed it back to life! It took her an entire week to nurse it back to life! How can I not treasure this orchid!?”

Grandpa Jian grumbled back.

Orchids were precious. However, his granddaughter’s love and care were even more precious!

“Hey, old man! If your granddaughter saves your precious orchid, shouldn’t you care about her matters then?”

“Oi, old woman, if you care about it so much, why don’t you go and help her out?”

“Nope, I’m not dealing with this. They broke my darling’s heart. And you expect me to go and help them? No way in hell!”

Although Grandma Jian was concerned about the matter, she would never help them deal with it.

Why should she help them reconcile the matter? Back then, they hadn’t even asked her for her opinion before they punished her darling! They even dragged her to go and apologize to Jian Yunnao!

After a while, Jian Yuncheng and Jian Yunnao arrived at the stadium where Jupiter held their concert.

Just as Grandma Jian had predicted, Jian Yuncheng could see no sign of Jian Yiling and the others at the huge concert venue. Even though he had gotten tickets, he wouldn’t be able to meet Jian Yiling during the concert.

Jupiter’s concert was a massive success. All of their fans were incredibly enthusiastic and passionate.

It was Jian Yiling’s first time attending a concert of this kind.

Although she was a little uncomfortable, she still stayed to the end.

After the concert, Jian Yiling and the others arrived backstage.

As soon as Jian Yumin left the stage, the first person he ran towards was Jian Yiling.

Just now, Jian Yumin had expended a lot of physical energy on singing and dancing. As a result, he was still sweating and panting.

Jian Yujie began to diss his brother, “Hey brother, your performance today was quite average.”

He had to have high expectations for his brother. If Jian Yujie praised Jian Yumin too often, Jian Yumin would become too conceited with himself.

However, Jian Yujie completely ignored his brother. Instead, he turned around to speak to Jian Yiling, “Crybaby, how was the performance? How’d you find it?”

“It was quite good,” Jian Yiling replied honestly.

Upon hearing this, Jian Yumin started smiling, “Yiling has good taste. Unlike someone else.”

As he said this, he glared at his brother. Jian Yujie was not cute at all.

Jian Yujie laughed before he said: “Well, Yiling is too kind. She doesn’t want to make the situation awkward for you.”

As the few of them joked around backstage, Jian Yumin’s assistant came over and said:

“The CEO of Huan You Technology Corporation hopes to talk to you.”

“Huh? Er... Let him come in, I guess,” Jian Yumin said. As soon as he heard the title, he knew that it was none other than Jian Yuncheng.

And thus, Jian Yuncheng was brought to the backstage area.

“Brother Yuncheng, what are you doing here?” As far as Jian Yumin could remember, Jian Yuncheng wasn’t fond of pop music. Furthermore, he was less fond of noisy situations. As a result, he would not typically attend concerts.

“I’m waiting for Yiling,” Jian Yuncheng replied. As he said this, he directed his attention to Jian Yiling.

As Jian Yiling had been afraid of the cold, she had worn quite a few layers today.

The soft and fluffy clothes wrapped around her made her face appear especially small.

“Don’t worry Brother Yuncheng. In a while, I’ll bring Yiling back to the Old Jian Residence.”

Jian Yumin planned to return to the Old Jian Residence tonight. As a result, he could bring Jian Yiling back home. Thus, there was no need for Jian Yuncheng to make a special trip.

Now that the concert was over, he could finally take a break for a while.

Furthermore, as of now, Jian Yiling was returning to the Old Jian Residence and not the Jian Residence.
