Yesterday, when he met Yan Yiren in the president’s office, he immediately noticed her swollen face.

Even without her saying anything, he knew it was because of that mother-daughter duo.

Yiren…

Ji Hanjiang hugged Yan Yiren silently, Yiren, his Yiren…

As Yan Shudan’s eyes widened, she forgot all about shedding her crocodile tears. She stood there, staring at Ji Hanjiang in a daze.

How did he know?

Good going, Yan Yiren!

Lowering her eyelids slowly, Yan Shudan made a note to herself to remember this.

Yan Ningkang gave Ruan Yufeng the side-eye. With one of them helping Yan Shudan on the left, and the other on the right, they swiftly left the ward.

They couldn’t bear to stay a moment longer.

After all, they felt guilty and rightfully so. If they had stayed and Ji Hanjiang found fault with something else, they wouldn’t be able to escape his wrath.

In an instant, the atmosphere in the ward simmered down.

Finally, some peace and quiet.

Yan Yiren lowered her head, stretching out her arms and looping them around his waist. She slowly brought him into an embrace, burrowing her head into his chest.

After a moment of nuzzling longingly into his embrace, she mumbled, “Thank you, Hanjiang.”

He lowered his head, kissing her on the top of her head. “I should be the one thanking you.”

“Mmm? Yan Yiren lifted her head a little daftly, gazing at him as if in a trance.

“And thanks for finally introducing me as your boyfriend and bringing me to meet grandma.”

Yan Yiren chuckled, “I didn’t have a choice……”

If they hadn’t gone overboard, she wouldn’t have called Ji Hanjiang over so abruptly.

She had intended for grandma’s condition to stabilize before bringing him to meet her. With everything that had been going on, it seemed that her plans could only be brought forward.

But that’s good too. Now that they’re aware of his status, she was sure Yan Shudan and her mother wouldn’t cause any more trouble for the time being.

“…Yiren.” Madam Yan called out weakly.

Yan Yiren withdrew from Ji Hanjiang’s embrace and redirected her gaze to the old lady, unable to hide her joy. “Grandma, are you awake?” she asked.

Madam Yan smiled weakly, her cloudy eyes overflowing with love. “You guys caused such a huge ruckus. It would have been hard for grandma to not wake up from that.”

“I’m sorry, Grandma. It’s all because of my lack of consideration…”

“Silly girl. Grandma’s just teasing you.” Ji Hanjiang caressed Yan Yiren’s head, knowing she felt guilty.

Madam Yan sized up Ji Hanjiang. The more she looked at him, the more she took a liking to this fine young man, who had sterling qualities.

Ji Hanjiang put his hand down, properly introducing himself to Madam Yan, “Grandma, nice to meet you. My name is Ji Hanjiang, and I’m Yiren’s boyfriend. Please take your time and rest. I promise to take good care of Yiren.”

…

It was already dusk by the time they left the hospital.

After skipping work for an entire afternoon, no one had tried to reach Yan Yiren by phone. It seems as if there wouldn’t be any problems.

Ji Hanjiang waved his hand, letting his bodyguards leave. With his car keys in his hand, he opened the door for Yan Yiren. After she had taken a seat, he then walked past the front of the car to the driver’s seat.

“What would you like to get something to eat?” he asked.

Yan Yiren gazed at his handsome side profile, as she said softly, “Let’s go to the supermarket. I’ll cook dinner tonight.”

“Is it to thank me?”

To thank him for getting her out of a tight spot today?

Yan Yiren admitted, “It’s to thank you, and also as a reward.”

“Then what are we waiting for, let’s go!” The Maybach made its way out of the hospital and zoomed toward a hypermarket in the city.

After purchasing some groceries there, the two returned to the apartment.

Ji Hanjiang had been to Yan Yiren’s place countless times. But, he had only stayed over a handful of times.

It was only when he was drunk that he had an excuse to stay over.

Ji Hanjiang lifted the shopping bags, carried the groceries into the kitchen, and then put them away. Yan Yiren walked into the kitchen, pushing him out as she put on her apron.
