Petite Mother of Four Big Shots - Chapter 29.2

Chapter 29: Jiang Yun’s Thoughts (2) 

“Is there something wrong?” Jiang Yun asked back. 

Zhan Yang, on the other hand, hesitated. His boss’s mother was too young and her son had grown up. Even if he wanted to act like her son, it would be difficult for him. 

“Although there’s nothing wrong with your attitude, the young lady probably won’t think so,” Zhan Yang considered and said. “She is an independent and mature person—not a child. She has her own thoughts, so you can’t try and control her.” 

He said it very tactfully, but Jiang Yun understood that he was a son, not a father. He couldn’t influence his mother’s thoughts, let alone make any decisions for her. 

Jiang Yun didn’t speak but sighed softly. “I just don’t want her to work harder.” 

How difficult is it to raise a child? Only someone who has raised one would know. 

Even if the child was considerate and sensible, being a mother would not be that easy.
 

Moreover, she had raised four of them. 

She always smiled and made funny noises in front of them. Even if they would occasionally be mischievous and get into trouble, she would only scold them and at most force them to stand in the corner. 

As the eldest brother, he was much more mature than his younger brothers. The most profound scene in his memory was when she took them to dinner after a busy day, then sat in a chair and watched them eat as she fell asleep. 

When she woke up, she said that she was just a little tired. 

As a child, they had always believed anything she said. When she said she was only a little tired, she was only a little tired. Even though he was suspicious, he only figured out that his mother was actually too tired and had passed out. Her pale and bloodless face was all but forgotten about. 

Even after many years, those memories were still as clear as yesterday’s thoughts… How tired would you need to be to pass out like that? 

But because she had four children, she couldn’t stay asleep, so she regained consciousness by virtue of a powerful invisible energy.
 

At the most painful time when she was first separated from them, he repeatedly thought whether she began to see them as a burden. He thought that she didn’t want them, so she left them behind. 

This idea was buried in his heart until he reached adulthood, until his life changed dramatically by his own hands. 

Now that she was back, she was no longer the one in his memory that he needed to look up to; he was already very strong. Just as she had given them the best, now he wanted to give her the best. 

He wanted her to stop working so hard and just be happy. 

Zhan Yang was considerate and stayed silent. After a while, he changed the subject and reported something else. “Vice president Wang Ning of the U.S. branch handed in an application for returning to China today. What do you want to say…?” 

Jiang Yun said lightly, “Call her back.” 

Zhan Yang nodded silently. 

Wang Ning was a professional woman with very good abilities. She was taking care of half of the businesses in the US branch. At the same time, she was also the one that everyone thought was most likely to become the wife of the boss. 

She was beautiful, outstanding in business, had a high education, status, background, etc. She was worthy of standing beside Jiang Yun.  For many years, there has been no shortage of beautiful women around Jiang Yun—all such young talents, rich and single. Which woman didn’t love him? 

Not once had he ever heard who he had a definite relationship with. Only Wang Ning, who had been reported by the company, had been seen going in and out of Jiang Yun’s residence in the United States. 

However, Jiang Yun lived in the country for a long time, and Wang Ning’s application for returning to China was rejected. 

So everyone couldn’t figure out what the relationship between the two was. 

Only Zhang Yang, the personal assistant, knew best. Jiang Yun had been in a relationship with Wang Ning, but even he didn’t know what happened to them in the end. 

As a personal assistant, no one knew Jiang Yun better than Zhan Yang. In his view, Jiang Yun had always been lonely. 

Even if he was very wealthy now, he had no relatives and few close friends. When he returns home from work, he is always left alone in a cold room. 

The appearance of Gu Yuanyuan gave Zhan Yang a real feeling that some of Jiang Yun’s dead past was alive again. 

This was a very good phenomenon. 

It seems that he’s had this temperament since yesterday.

Meanwhile. 

Gu Yuanyuan packed up and was ready to leave the military compound. Jiang Yun’s maid sent her out so that she could find the way. She walked all this way, and so the maid also introduced her to the people around. 

Gu Yuanyuan didn’t write down their names, but wrote down many titles. Commander, major general, colonel, secretary, and so on… it made her mind dizzy. 

In the words of the maid, meeting any person in the military compound so casually would give the impression that you were a big shot. 

Or the family members of those big shots. 

Gu Yuanyuan did meet Ji Peichuan, one of the big brothers, before she left. 

He sat in his car and stopped when he passed by Gu Yuanyuan. 

Noticing each other, Ji Peichuan looked at the girl with her hair hanging loose and her sweater hat that was round like a ball. It was really difficult to associate her with Jiang Yun’s “mother-in-law.” 

He paused. “You…”
