From Sidekick to Bigshot

He Yan lost her temper for quite some time. Then, she said to Jian Yubo with red and puffy eyes: “I just really want you guys to be successful in the future. I want you guys to be able to maintain the family business. That’s why I forced you guys to study finance in the first place. If you listened to me back then, you won’t have invested in such a project. Ahh…”

Jian Yubo was silent as He Yan said this.

He Yan’s words did not arouse the slightest sliver of emotion in him.

His emotions did not stir. There was no anger. In fact, he just calmly listened to her.

It was as if he was a spectator.

Although he was part of what was happening, his heart was not part of what was happening. It was as though this didn’t matter to him.

Jian Yubo’s attitude made He Yan lose her temper for almost half a day. However, most of her anger hadn’t yet lessened. Instead, she began to feel anxious.

However, she knew that she couldn’t change anything even if she asked him questions right now.

Now, the only thing that she could do was to find a way to ensure that the movie could be shot and aired without a hitch.

With this in mind, He Yan hurriedly left Jian Yubo’s room. She started to contact people that she knew in the entertainment industry.

She wanted to minimize the damage and loss.

Jian Yiling participating in a tournament would have been an incredibly exciting thing to watch for Grandpa Jian and Grandma Jian. If that had happened at any other time, the two of them would definitely follow the whole tournament with great interest.

In fact, it was possible that they would have even gone to Tonghai City to cheer on their granddaughter personally.

However, things had happened to the Jian family recently. Due to this reason, Grandpa Jian wasn’t in the mood to watch the tournament.

“Old man, don’t worry about it too much. Jian Yuncheng’s company is doing quite well! Furthermore, the tournament this time is attracting a lot of attention too! We’re too old to worry about a lot of things. Even if our family business ceases to exist, we still have real estate under our name. We won’t starve.”

Grandma Jian attempted to console her husband.

Grandpa Jian sighed before he said: “If an outsider had put our family into such a predicament, I would have nothing to say… However, the person who did this was Yubo…”

Grandpa Jian’s heart ached. It was painful that his own grandson was destroying their family business.

At their age, the old couple wanted nothing more than peace and harmony in the family.

As they were talking, Grandma Jian’s phone rang. Jian Yiling was calling Grandma Jian.

Grandma Jian immediately answered the phone: “Darling, what’s wrong? Do you miss me? Do you want me to come over tomorrow to keep you company?”

Their darling didn’t travel much. Although Jian Yujie was accompanying her on this trip, Grandma Jian was still not quite at ease. She was still worried about her precious granddaughter.

“No, it’s not that,” Jian Yiling replied. She didn’t know how to phrase her words. After a pause, Jian Yiling organized her words and said, “I… Sent… Some useful information… To Grandpa Jian.”

When it came to family relationships, Jian Yiling still stumbled a bit on her speech.

Grandma Jian immediately called out to Grandpa Jian: “Hey, our darling said that she sent you some useful information. Hurry up and take a look!”

Grandpa Jian had been in his study for quite some time. He had been worrying about their family’s predicament. Due to this reason, he hadn’t read his messages.

When Grandma Jian reminded him, he opened his phone. Then, he saw the message that his precious granddaughter had sent him.

When he opened the message, Grandpa Jian was shocked.

This information…

Upon seeing her husband’s expression, Grandma Jian hurried over to read the message as well. A surprised expression surfaced on her face.

Grandma Jian put the call on loudspeaker: “Darling, where did you get this information from?”

“From a friend.”

“You should thank that friend.”

“Mhmm,” Jian Yiling replied. After a pause, she continued to speak: “Let’s give all our money to Jian Yubo. Is that okay?”

Jian Yiling’s request made the old couple pause.

They looked at the information in their hands and carefully thought about Jian Yiling’s suggestion.
