Rebirth in the 80's: The Daily Life of the Villain's Mom-Chapter 291: No Particular Thoughts

Hearing Xia Qiufang’s words, Jiang Ran finally looked up from her busyness.

"Go ahead, it’s still raining outside. Hold the umbrella and take your time. Maybe someone should go with you, so you don’t have to carry everything by yourself."

Xia Qiufang waved her hands quickly, "No, no, I’m fine on my own."

Seeing Xia Qiufang say this, Jiang Ran just nodded and didn’t say much more.

Xia Qiufang walked away with her umbrella, and only then did Jiang Zhi ask Jiang Ran, "You still provide lunch here at noon?"

Jiang Ran nodded, "Yes."

Jiang Zhi looked at Jiang Ran and didn’t speak for quite a while.

Such a small shop, yet they still provide meals.

He didn’t understand what Jiang Ran was thinking.

But seeing Jiang Ran’s demeanor, it was clear she thought it was perfectly natural, so Jiang Zhi didn’t voice his thoughts.

Half an hour later, Xia Qiufang returned, carrying a basket covered with plastic to ensure the lunchboxes inside wouldn’t get wet.

The group left the workspace and went to the adjacent lounge to eat.

The rain pattered softly, permeating the air with moisture, yet the food was steaming hot.

Everyone still had their boxed meal, along with seaweed egg drop soup.

The hot soup warmed the body thoroughly.

After eating, the group chatted for a while, which counted as a bit of rest.

Before long, everyone returned to their respective workstations.

Jiang Ran, however, was in no rush to go back; she and Jiang Zhi remained in the room.

Watching the continuous curtain of rain outside, Jiang Ran couldn’t help but frown.

Autumn rain is different from summer rain.

In summer, rain comes quickly and leaves just as fast, and the sky clears up soon.

Yet autumn rain is persistent, and though it doesn’t pour, it can drizzle on for several days.

It looked like the rain wouldn’t stop anytime soon, and it was quite inconvenient.

While Jiang Ran was staring outside, Jiang Zhi suddenly spoke, "Did Pei Huai tell you what I asked him to yesterday?"

Suddenly hearing Jiang Zhi’s words, Jiang Ran wasn’t surprised and nodded, "He did."

"So, what are you thinking?"

Think about what?

The truth is, there was nothing to think about.

Before and after the book, Jiang Ran believed that only what she earned by her efforts truly belonged to her.

Before she transmigrated, she could enjoy everything her family provided with peace of mind.

Because her family loved her, and she loved them back.

It was an expression of love, not a transaction.

But now, even if she took a giant step back and Jiang Zhi was indeed her biological grandfather, she wouldn’t accept anything from him.

That wasn’t their relationship, just a transaction.

Although Jiang Ran was in business, she didn’t want to engage in such transactions.

Jiang Ran firmly shook her head, "I have no thoughts on it. As you can see, I’m living well right now. Maybe not as wealthy as you, but I earned all this through my effort, without needing to please anyone or having people say I took what isn’t mine."

Jiang Ran’s words were clear. Jiang Zhi had more than just one granddaughter.

If she accepted what Jiang Zhi offered, how would the other members of the Jiang Family react and what would they say?

Though Jiang Ran hadn’t personally experienced those incidents, novels and TV dramas weren’t for nothing.

She wouldn’t involve herself in such matters or give anyone the opportunity to blame her.

Jiang Ran’s response was within Jiang Zhi’s expectations.

"Even if you don’t accept anything, are you really not planning to come with me to beishi for a look?"
