Wait, taking Jiang Ni away?
Bai Shu's expression loosened in shock, and in his panic, he knocked over the mahjong tiles beside him. He didn't bother to look at them, waving his hand to signal someone to play for him instead.
He stood up and walked outside, finding a quiet place. Once he confirmed there was no one around, he asked in a low voice, reflecting his thoughts, "Grandpa... he couldn't possibly have come... to take you back, right?"
On the other end of the phone, Jiang Ni nodded wearily, "Congratulations, you got it right."
"..."
Bai Shu fell silent.
He couldn't quite identify his feelings upon hearing this news, whether it was happiness or worry.
Selfishly, he of course hoped that Jiang Ni would stay in Beijing. But he also knew that if she went back, her life would be better.
No need to fight with the Jiang Family people, nor to continue entangled with Qin Jijing.
But recalling what she said that day, Bai Shu didn't need to ask to know her thoughts.
