Chapter 335: Love

“Hmm? When was this? Is it the day when he summoned you and Jing Ning?” My smile narrowed.

“Yes.” Jing Tian answered.

I couldn’t stop my curiosity, “Did Old Master Jing scold Jing Ning or even suspect him?”

Jing Tian shook his head slightly. “No.”

“No?” I raised my voice. I was truly surprised.

“After all Jing Ning did to Jing Ni, Old Master Jing didn’t even have a harsh word for him? Jing Ning has committed fratricide!” This old man was too detestable. I couldn’t understand why Auntie Lan liked someone like him!

Jing Tian sighed. He looked at me, who was bristling. “Nanxing, the Jing Family is not as simple as you think. My father is not only the head of the family. He is also the leader of the Jing Family. He’s the captain who is in charge of the Jing Family ship. Jing Ni is fine now, but even if she is not, he will not do anything to Jing Ning because Jing Ni was a small loss compared to the gain in the piece of land. Jing Ning was acting in the Jing Family’s best interest. Therefore, he will not do anything to Jing Ning.”

This was the worst logic I had ever heard. I looked at him, and my face darkened. “Jing Tian, is that what you think too?”

He shook his head without hesitation. “That’s why I won’t inherit the Jing Company. I can’t think like him.”

I squatted down and placed the box of chocolates on his table, looking up at Jing Tian.

Jing Tian looked down at me. “Nanxing, that means I will lose the Jing Family’s support one day.”

I understood what he meant.

I looked at him. “Like I care about that.”

He smiled and reached out to rub my head.

I knelt by his leg and wrapped my arms around his waist. “Jing Tian, why did you leave the Jing Group?”

In my previous life, I thought he had been expelled by his father.

However, Old Master Jing loved Auntie Lan and Jing Tian dearly. If Jing Tian wanted to, Old Master Jing would give the Jing Group to Jing Tian.

Jing Tian pulled me up and let me sit on his lap. He held my hand in his palm.

“When my mother was pregnant with me, the official Mrs. Jing was still alive. My mother took me away from my father because of this. By the time Mrs. Jing passed away, and he came looking for us, I was already running all over the place. Because of this, he felt very guilty towards my mother and me. However, this meant that the rest of the Jing Family is very suspicious of my birth and identity.” Jing Tian explained.

“They suspect you’re not the old man’s biological son?” I asked.

Jing Tian nodded. “You saw how my father treats my mother. I am willing to give up ten Jing Group as long as he continues to treat her like this. That’s why I won’t get involved in the internal conflict of the Jing Group. This is also my mother’s wish. Even though she was tricked by the old man back then, she was not angry because it led to me being born. However, she still has reservations about the Jing Family. She knows how dangerous that family is. Therefore, she won’t let me be the next head of the Jing family. Thankfully, I don’t want that role either.”

I sighed, “But this doesn’t mean that the rest of the Jing Family will understand! You and Auntie Lan don’t care about the post of the family head, but the others are still cautious around you. Moreover, even the blind can tell Old Master Jing favors you. Even though Jing Ning is the eldest grandson of the eldest son and is publicly recognized as Old Master Jing’s her, the Old Master can easily take it all back and push it onto you should he feel like it.”

Jing Tian smiled wryly. This issue had been stressing him.

On this issue, Old Master Jing and Auntie Lan were quite similar. Perhaps their mindsets had influenced each other after being together for so long.

However, Jing Tian had suffered a lot for it.

For Old Master Jing and Auntie Lan, love was the most important. They loved their son deeply, but the weight of that love was very heavy!
