Chapter 263 - Orchid Exhibition (4) (2/2)

“Wait, why haven’t I heard you mention it before?” Fifteen years was quite a long period of time. During this time, Jian Shuxing had not heard a single thing about this. His father had hidden this from him way too well.

“I’m your father. Do I need to report my actions to you?”

Grandpa Jian’s words immediately put a stop to Jian Shuxing’s questions.

He didn’t dare to ask his father any more questions. After the orchid exhibition was over, the rest of the Jian family accompanied Grandpa Jian to a nearby Chinese restaurant for lunch.

At this very moment, both Jian Yiling and Hu Jiaojiao were seated at their seats.

Jian Yiling was busy with her own business. Even during the lunch break, Jian Yiling made sure that she made good use of her time.
