Chapter 675 They Are Not Here
Chapter 675 They Are Not Here
The teacher who taught Jiang Mubai did not show any curiosity about the fact that Wen Nuohan did not come to class. After all, he was invited back by Jiang An to teach Jiang Mubai alone. He did not say anything when Wen Nuohan interrupted him. Now that Wen Nuohan did not come to class, he would not say anything. After all, the person he mainly served was Jiang Mubai, and other irrelevant matters did not affect his class arrangements.
Without Wen Nuohan, both the teacher and Jiang Mubai were in a much better mood, and the teacher's lectures now returned to the same pleasant and relaxed atmosphere as before.
Jiang Mubai was in a good mood and said goodbye to the teacher after class. After returning to the room to put her things away, she went to the other end of the main house to visit Jiang Ping. She had agreed to come over to visit him later. Jiang Mubai didn't want to be a person who went back on his word. Even though there was a high possibility that she would meet Jiang Jinglan at Jiang Ping's place, Jiang Mubai never thought of not coming to avoid trouble.
Anyway, before coming to visit Jiang Ping, Jiang Mubai had already prepared herself mentally. She hoped that Jiang Jinglan would be smarter and not make trouble for her. If Jiang Jinglan still pulled her aside to talk about something else, Jiang Mubai would not let herself be wronged.
Jiang Mubai was lucky when he went to visit Jiang Ping. Neither Chen Qingyu nor Jiang Jinglan were there, so Jiang Mubai didn't have to deal with them.
There was a special person serving Jiang Ping in his room. Jiang Mubai saw this and knew that Chen Qingyu was not there and was worried that Jiang Ping was alone in the room, so he specially arranged someone to take care of him.
Jiang Mubai came at the right time. Jiang Ping was still awake and hadn't fallen asleep yet, so Jiang Mubai didn't have to come again at night. By then, he didn't know if he would be lucky enough to catch up with them when Chen Qingyu and Jiang Jinglan were no longer around.
The servants were standing by and doing nothing. Jiang Ping was lying on the bed, thinking about something. It was the person standing by and taking care of Jiang Ping who first noticed that Jiang Mubai had arrived.
"Second miss."
Jiang Ping came to his senses when he heard the servant's voice and found that Jiang Mubai came to his room to visit him. He struggled to sit up, and Jiang Mubai stopped him immediately when he saw him.
"Uncle, just lie down and don't get up. I can still talk to you like this."
"No, I've been lying down for almost a day and my body is already numb. It would be better to sit up and change my posture. This way I can talk to you, Mu Bai, better."
Seeing Jiang Ping say this, Jiang Mubai and the caregiver helped Jiang Ping up and let him sit against the head of the bed.
"Mu Bai, why are you here? Didn't you tell me not to come over? You're pregnant now and it's not convenient for you to move around."
"We agreed on this this morning. I just had classes in the afternoon and thought I had nothing to do, so I came to see you. Anyway, I was tired of sitting and thought I'd walk around and exercise, so I came to see you. Uncle, are you feeling better now?"
"Much better. Mu Bai, you are more sensible. Your father is so lucky to have a daughter like you. Now he has found you and brought you back to the Jiang family. I am relieved to see you. Otherwise, I would have felt guilty for the rest of my life."
Jiang Mubai seemed to have heard some other meaning in Jiang Ping's words, but due to his current situation, she didn't dare to ask. Moreover, even if Jiang Mubai asked, Jiang Ping might not tell her.
Jiang Ping really didn't plan to say much to Jiang Mubai, because the next second he changed the subject and asked about Jiang An.
"Have you contacted your father? Is An coming back to the old house again?"
"My dad has been busy lately. He called me to let me know about it, so he didn't come back to the old house."
Afraid that Jiang Ping would be sad if he knew the truth, Jiang Mubai didn't say too much and only told Jiang Ping some unimportant things.
"I see. Then tell him to be more careful and take care of himself when he's out there. He's not young anymore, so don't try to be too aggressive."
"Well, I will tell my dad well, and you should also take good care of your health, uncle."
"Your grandpa and grandma only have two children, your dad and I. Your dad has been clinging to me since he was a kid, and the relationship between us has become a lot more distant. Although I know it's not a good look for two grown men to be so clingy, and you also know that your uncle is not such an extroverted person, despite this, the affection between your dad and I has not changed in my heart. Even though we are not like that when we were little, in my heart I will always treat him as his younger brother, and he will always respect me as his older brother."
"But life is like this. It's impossible for it to be smooth sailing forever. I don't care about your father and I being in this situation now. This is all retribution for me. If I hadn't done something wrong in the past, he wouldn't treat me like this now. I really regret it now and hope that your father can forgive me. I don't have any other extravagant hopes."
Jiang Mubai got personal confirmation from Jiang Ping. Jiang Ping personally confirmed that his illness was related to Jiang An. This made Jiang Mubai not know what to do. Although Jiang Ping said that what happened to him had nothing to do with Jiang An, Jiang Mubai didn't know how to comfort him.
Jiang Mubai also knew that Jiang Ping must have said that because he had done something bad to Jiang An, otherwise Jiang An would not be so heartless as to not return to the old house to see his only brother.
Jiang Mubai didn't know what happened between the two brothers, but when she saw Jiang Ping lying on the bed and saying these things to her, Jiang Mubai felt very uncomfortable.
"Uncle, don't say that. You and my dad are brothers. There is nothing that cannot be solved. My dad may not have come to his senses right now. Everything will be fine once he calms down."
"No, your father will never forgive me in his life. I should have thought about it when I did those things. I deserve it. It would be best if An could forgive me in the future. If he doesn't forgive me, I can't blame him. I just hope he won't put too much pressure on himself and live in pain. That incident has nothing to do with him, so he just shouldn't blame himself."
"What's going on? Uncle, tell me about it. Maybe I can help you mediate with my dad!"
Jiang Ping was actually moved by what Jiang Mubai said, but Jiang An had already told her that he didn't want Jiang Mubai to know about this. Jiang Ping felt that she had already let them down, so she didn't want to fail to do what Jiang An had specifically told her to do.
"Ah! Let's not talk about it anymore. This is all between your father and me. There's no need to involve you youngsters. Just remember, Mu Bai, that this matter has nothing to do with your father. No matter how wrong it is, it's all your uncle's fault. It's not easy for your father to be alone for most of his life. You have to be filial to him in the future, okay?"
Seeing that Jiang Ping really didn't want to talk about what happened between him and Jiang An, Jiang Mubai simply stopped asking and agreed directly: "Don't worry, uncle, I will definitely be filial to my father, not only to him but also to you!"
"Okay, okay! I'm very happy to hear your words. You should also take good care of yourself, okay?"
