Chapter 98 - Exhibition

When Song Ning saw Mu Chen looking at the delighted Jiang Jin, she silently made a decision.

After that Mu Chen calmly gave everyone a task. Even Yu was given the task of selecting fruits and snacks for the exhibition.

Song Ning said to Mu Chen, "On the third day of the exhibition, help me make an appointment with a psychiatrist at the house."

Mu Chen looked at Song Ning gently, "Are you sure?"

Song Ning nodded. "Yes.. With you and Grandma protecting me, I feel safest and most at ease being at home where I'm loved."

Mu Chen hugged her gently and planted a kiss on her forehead. "Okay. However, you don't have to put too much pressure on yourself. Doctor Bai has said that this is no different from treating physical illnesses; we have to do it step by step. Don't be in a hurry; let's take it one step at a time."

Song Ning nodded. She had already made a decision and was prepared for whatever the future held.

…

The first day of the exhibition was exceptionally successful.

Jiang Jin was as excited as a child. She had a great time meeting and chatting with the ten friends whom she invited. Naturally, she did not forget to praise Song Ning, her granddaughter-in-law.

Jiang Jin's friends admired every piece of work from Zhuang Ji. They even praised the door gifts that were given out such as pendants, embroidered handkerchiefs, and embroidered fans. They even promised to place orders with Zhuang Ji every month.

Song Ning was worried about Jiang Jin's health so she insisted on relieving Jiang Jin's acupuncture points.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Jin's friends grew curious. They even asked Song Ning to check their pulses. Song Ning accurately listed the ailments that plagued them and gave them suggestions to alleviate the symptoms so they were overjoyed.

In the end, the exhibition in the morning suddenly turned into consultation sessions in the afternoon.

Song Ning carefully wrote out prescriptions and suggestions for their daily diets, urging them to go for regular checkups at the hospital.

For these reasons, the old ladies were very fond of Song Ning. They even said they would visit the Mu family house to look for Song Ning.

Jiang Jin was happy and filled with pride and hurriedly agreed to her friends' request.

With this, the guests left the exhibition happily.

After Song Ning helped Jiang Jin send everyone to the door, she asked worriedly, "Grandma, are you tired. I really shouldn't let you accompany me the entire day…"

Jiang Jin said as she held Song Ning's hand, "What are you talking about? Grandma isn't tired at all!"

Song Ning helped Jiang Jin to the sofa before she lifted one of Jiang Jin's legs and began to massage it.

Jiang Jin sighed in satisfaction. "Even if I'm tired, I'll be energized after your massage…"

Song Ning said with a hint of self-blame, "Mu Chen and I are at fault. We shouldn't have given you such a tiring task."

Jiang Jin said with a sigh, "Ningning, Mu Chen gave this task for my good. Ever since his mother passed away, I hardly socialized if it weren't necessary. At that time, I was worried about Mu Chen, his father, and the company. The stress from that time is probably the cause of my illness now. Every time I see Mu Chen's lifeless expression, worry would seize my heart. I couldn't help wondering what would happen to my poor grandson if something happened to me. Who will love him? How would he suffer if I left him alone? Therefore, I declined all social engagements and only stayed home to look after him. I kept looking for things he would enjoy doing. Even if he gets annoyed, at least, he'd look like a living person." After a pause, she continued to say with a faint smile on her face, "Fortunately, I have you now. I'm very happy whenever I see his smile that gradually grows as the days pass."

Song Ning was slightly taken aback by these words. All this time, she had been so selfish, only focusing on her pain and grudges. She had forgotten that Mu Chen, like her, was also abandoned by his father. Since she had met him, she had constantly sought comfort, love, and warmth from him, and he had never once complained. He was really good to her. However, she took everything he gave her for granted and enjoyed it with ease of mind.

With these thoughts in her mind, tears began to well up in her eyes. She could not help but hug Jiang Jin and said, "Grandma, I'll definitely be good to Mu Chen. I won't let him suffer."

Jiang Jin nodded and patted Song Ning's head as she said, "From the moment he introduced you to me, I felt relieved. I could tell you're a good child from your pure eyes. I can see why Mu Chen fell in love with you so quickly. For some people, even if they're meeting for the first time, it feels like they've known each other for a long time. This is the fate between both of you. I'm very happy when I see both of you."

Upon hearing this, Song Ning's tears were gradually replaced by a smile on her face.
