Chapter 317: New Big Shot Qin Chuan (2)

Upon hearing this, Jian Shuxing’s heart was astringent for a moment, “Yiling...”

It felt as though he had a fishbone stuck in his throat. He didn’t know what to say.

After a while, he tried to comfort his wife: “It will get better. Our Yiling will come back to us.”

After dressing up, Wen Nuan and her husband headed towards the Old Jian Residence to pick up Jian Yiling and Jian Yunmo.

Jian Yunmo declined their invitation. He said that he had to revise and edit one of his thesis papers. He still had to discuss it with his tutor over the Internet.

And thus, Wen Nuan and Jian Shuxing decided not to force him to go.

Before leaving, Jian Yiling left him a puzzle box. The box was constructed in a special way. It was not something that could be opened easily.

When Jian Yunmo saw the box, he smiled. His sister was worried that he would be bored at home. And thus, she had left him a puzzle to solve.

This was a game that the two of them used to play. They would give each other puzzles to solve.

The venue of the banquet was at a villa on the outskirts of Hengyuan City.

Not long after Jian Yiling and the others arrived, Jian Shuhong and He Yan also arrived.

Out of their children, Jian Shuxing and Wen Nuan had only brought Jian Yiling. On the other hand, Jian Shuhong and He Yan didn’t bring any of their children with them.

He Yan wanted to bring them. However, Jian Yumin said that he was busy with his new album. On the other hand, Jian Yujie said that he was learning something. In the last few days, he didn’t even want to leave his room, let alone come to this banquet.

Neither of the brothers knew that Jian Yiling was going to the banquet today. If they knew about this, they might have had the time to come.

As soon as He Yan saw Wen Nuan, her calculating heart started to work again.

Whenever Wen Nuan came to such occasions, she was always at ease. All the wives of noble families liked to talk to her.

When compared to Wen Nuan, she was left in the cold.

“Mrs. Jian, is that your daughter? She’s so beautiful!”

The other wives complimented Jian Yiling when they saw her.

Wen Nuan smiled and responded politely. After a while, she noticed that her daughter wasn’t really keen on dealing with small talk. And thus, she took her daughter to a nearby corner and got her some food.

Mrs. Qian also appeared at this banquet. She had a pretty girl beside her as well.

When the crowd saw this, they were all incredibly curious: “Mrs. Qian, I’ve only heard that you have a son. Since when did you get a daughter as well?”

Mrs. Qian replied with a smile: “Her name is Mo Shiyun. She’s like a sister to me.”

Mrs. Qian took this opportunity to introduce Mo Shiyun to everyone.

Upon hearing this, everyone greeted Mo Shiyun.

Mrs. Qian’s purpose for bringing Mo Shiyun to the banquet today was clear. She wanted Mo Shiyun to get to know more people in society. She also wanted to help Mo Shiyun lay a good foundation for her future.

If she had not been accompanied by Mrs. Qian, with Mo Shiyun’s background, it would have been incredibly difficult for her to come into contact with these people at the banquet. In fact, she might not have been able to do so in her entire lifetime.

Mrs. Qian was very good to Mo Shiyun.

As soon as Mo Shiyun had lost her previous role, she had immediately arranged a new role for Mo Shiyun.

Furthermore, the way she treated Mo Shiyun was not affected in any way by the last fiasco.

However, Mo Shiyun could no longer trust Mrs. Qian as she did in the very beginning.

Although she didn’t know whether or not there was any relationship between Mrs. Qian and Jian Yiling, her heart still felt uncomfortable.

The new role that Mrs. Qian had arranged for her was just as good as the previous one. However, this time, Mo Shiyun didn’t make a post on her social media about it. She didn’t let anyone else around her know about it either. Of course, this included Zhu Sha.

All she wanted to do now was to shoot the movie in peace. She wanted to earn money and make life more comfortable for herself and her mother.

Mo Shiyun saw Jian Yiling at the banquet. However, she quickly withdrew her gaze.
