”You're back?” Chen Jing stood up from the sofa and welcomed Jiang Yaner in. She was in her fifties and there were still some wrinkles on her face but she still wore her exquisite makeup. The diamond necklace on her neck was especially eye-catching.

Jiang Yaner entered the door with a tired body. Seeing Chen Jing getting up, she immediately tensed up: ”Mom, you're still awake?” She lowered her head and asked softly.

”I was waiting for you. Is it hard work?” Chen Jing's face was full of smiles, he looked at his daughter-in-law benevolently, and after exchanging a few words of greeting, he turned around and headed to the kitchen.

”Yes, there was a car accident near the factory, so he had been having surgery. He was busy until now.” Jiang Yaner stood at the same place, her pitch black hair gently tied up, her forehead still had beads of perspiration, and her fair face did not have any makeup on, it was written that she was tired, but was extremely feminine.

She was wondering why her mother-in-law, who usually looked at her coldly, was so enthusiastic today.

”Yan'er, drink a bowl of silver ear soup. I just told Sister-in-Law Li to boil it.” Chen Jing walked out of the kitchen with the same kind smile.

”Thank you, Mom.” She reached out her hand, but before she could take it, the bowl of warm silver ear soup fell towards Chen Jing.

Jiang Yaner was so frightened that she retreated a few steps. Then, she frowned as she walked forward and asked, ”Mom, are you alright? Is it hot? ”

Chen Jing's moans became louder and louder, falling to the ground in a mess. Jiang Yaner reached out to check for any scalding wounds on her body, but she stopped him with her hand.

And the exposed skin that the silver ear soup splashed on, clearly showed no signs of being burned.

Jiang Yaner seemed to understand everything, but she was helpless, and could only stand in place and wait for judgement.

Sure enough, Chen Jing's moans sounded out loud.

”What's going on?” The man in front of him shouted in a stern voice as he frowned and looked at the nervous Jiang Yaner in front of him, ”What did you do again?” His eyes were dark and sharp, filled with anger at this woman.

”I …” Jiang Yaner tried to explain, but the moment she opened her mouth, she was interrupted.

”Ah Chen, don't blame Yan Er. I believe she did not do it on purpose. How could she throw such a hot silver ear soup at me?” The more she spoke, the more wronged she became. She even began to sob softly.

”Sister-in-Law Li! Send my mother to the hospital! ” Jin Chen's gaze did not move from Jiang Yaner's body for even a second. That near observation made her feel uncomfortable, but she could not foresee what was about to happen.

After a moment of confusion, he finally managed to send Chen Jing to an ambulance.

”Come up!” Jin Chen growled, and turned to head upstairs.

Jiang Yaner followed closely. Normally, she would not be so obedient, but now that Jin Chen was angry, and she knew that she could not get rid of the suspicion, she could only obediently obey.

”It's not me …” She muttered softly behind him, as if she didn't have much courage to argue with Jin Chen in front of everyone.

He stopped walking and suddenly turned around. Jiang Yaner was so shocked that she almost rolled down the stairs.

”Why did you suddenly turn around?” There was a strong sense of dissatisfaction in her tone. After a night of surgery, she had long been exhausted, but now she appeared even weaker.

”A guilty conscience?” The corners of his mouth curled up in disdain.

Jiang Yaner sighed deeply, crossing her arms in front of her chest and hugging herself. She helplessly looked at the luxurious crystal lamp on the ceiling and remained silent for a long time.
