Chapter 384: Jian Yubo Returns to the Old Jian Residence (2)

Most of the plants and trees were still in the same place. This included the verdant and lush banyan tree that grew in the courtyard.

After a few moments, a maid invited Jian Yubo to go inside.

When Grandma and Grandpa Jian saw Jian Yubo, both of them had a surprised expression on their face.

“Yubo, why didn’t you tell us about your return?” Grandpa Jian asked.

Everyone had assumed that Jian Yubo was still concentrated on studying Go abroad. Although he had already won many prizes, every so often, he still isolated himself from the outside world in an attempt to improve his skills.

He would often find a quiet place and stay there for half a month.

It was very similar to the practice of a monk.

“Something came up and that’s why I came back early,” Jian Yubo replied.

Upon hearing the cold and indifferent way in which Jian Yubo spoke, Grandma Jian’s heart felt rather frustrated and helpless.

The boy had been a lively child when he was young. But somehow, something had happened in the past few years. He had suddenly become incredibly quiet.

How could a child who had been so boisterous suddenly become like this if something bad hadn’t happened to him?

“There’s something I want to talk to you about,” Jian Yubo said to Grandpa Jian.

Most of the time, when the men in the family wanted to talk alone, it was about business matters.

And thus, Jian Yubo and Grandpa Jian headed to the study.

At first, Grandma Jian didn’t take the matter seriously. She assumed that it would just be a normal conversation about business matters.

However, after a while, there was the sound of something being smashed in the study.

Grandma Jian rushed upstairs to see what was happening. She saw broken ceramic pieces on the floor. Grandpa Jian had just broken an ornament in his study.

Then, Grandma Jian took a look at her husband’s face. His expression looked incredibly ugly.

“What’s wrong?” Grandma Jian asked in a worried tone.

“I’ll take my leave,” Jian Yubo said. He looked the same as he had when he first entered the Old Jian Residence. There was not a slither of emotion on his face.

Jian Yubo walked slowly out of the study.

He met Jian Yiling in the living room. Jian Yiling had just returned home.

Both of them stopped at the same time and looked at each other.

Jian Yiling had already seen Jian Yubo’s photo from Jian Yumin. Due to this reason, she managed to recognize him.

However, Jian Yiling didn’t know much about Jian Yubo. This was because the first half of the original novel had very little to say about him. He wasn’t mentioned that often.

In the original novel, up until Jian Yiling’s death, Jian Yubo had not appeared in many scenes. It was as if he was an insignificant supporting character in the original novel.

The only description of him was from the mouth of the original villain in the novel. Zhai Yunsheng had called him:

[The most dangerous man in the Jian family.]

This was what Zhai Yunsheng had said about Jian Yubo.

However, there was no explanation as to why Zhai Yunsheng said that about him.

Jian Yiling and Jian Yubo looked at each other in silence. They didn’t say a single word to the other person.

One of their gazes was clear and bright whilst the other one’s gaze was deep and dark.

After half a minute, Jian Yubo finally moved. He walked out of the living room and left the Old Jian Residence.

In the study room upstairs, Grandma Jian asked Grandpa Jian: “Old man, what’s going on? What did you say to Yubo? Why are you so angry?”

Grandpa Jian didn’t say anything for a long time. However, he eventually replied: “It’s nothing much. The boy just said something quite impulsive. My temper got the better of me. I couldn’t control my temper.”

Grandpa Jian dismissed the matter lightly.

However, Grandma Jian refused to believe in Grandpa Jian’s story. After all, they had been married for so many years. She knew him quite well.

If their grandson had said something impulsive, at most, he would have scolded him. He definitely would not have gone as far as breaking things.

Not only did Grandma Jian refuse to believe this, but Jian Yiling also did not believe his words.
