Seeing Yu Jing's expression fluctuate, Mu Yan had no idea what she was thinking. After a moment's thought, he pushed the notebook in front of her and said, "I found this thing at Zhong Jiaqiang's house. I can't understand it. See if you can make sense of it!"
Seeing Mu Yan directly place the notebook in front of her, Yu Jing did not hesitate and picked it up to read.
After just opening it, Yu Jing felt a bit surprised, clearly completely puzzled by some of the things recorded inside. However, after flipping through it for twenty to thirty minutes, she seemed to understand something. She then picked up the phone and made a call.
Mu Yan noticed that the call was to her secretary, asking about some of the company's financial records. As she asked, her expression initially turned sour, but she soon showed a confident smile, clearly having deciphered the contents of the notebook.
After hanging up the phone, she glanced at her phone and seemed to remember something, her expression changing as she said subconsciously, "Oh! It's already so late!"
After saying that, she told Mu Yan, "We'll talk about your matter tomorrow. I have an urgent matter to attend to!"
Without even caring about Mu Yan, she hurriedly walked out. However, perhaps because she was in too much of a rush, her high heel slipped on the threshold, and she felt a sharp pain in her ankle, causing her to fall.
Just as she was about to hit the ground, she suddenly felt a strong arm catch her, lifting her back up.
"Are you okay?" Mu Yan asked after helping Yu Jing stand up.
Yu Jing tried to move her twisted foot and found it hurt badly. She couldn't even support herself, let alone walk.
Mu Yan also noticed and saw that she had sprained her ankle. Seeing her in pain, he said, "Sit down quickly. I'll check if you've hurt any bones."
Hearing Mu Yan's words, Yu Jing hesitated for a moment but then sat down with his help.
Mu Yan squatted on the ground and gently held Yu Jing's injured foot.
He had seen Zi Xuan's feet a few days ago, which were very beautiful, and Yu Jing's feet were no different. Although they were separated by a thin layer of stockings, he could still feel the smoothness of her skin, and her feet were even more delicate and petite.
Mu Yan didn't admire her feet but gently rotated her ankle and asked about her pain.
After a couple of minutes, Mu Yan put her foot down and said, "It's not too serious. At least there's no bone injury. There might be a slight tear in the ligament. I suggest you apply ice immediately, not with an ice pack, but with a wet towel soaked in ice water. Change it every half hour. Tomorrow, soak your foot in hot water. If it's not too serious, you should be able to walk in three to four days. Otherwise, it will take at least a week."
Hearing Mu Yan's words, although Yu Jing didn't understand why he knew about sprains, she believed him because of his confident explanation. However, she had no time and immediately said, "No, I have to leave right now!"
Seeing that Yu Jing really had an urgent matter, Mu Yan said, "How can you walk like this? Let your secretary or subordinate handle it. If you trust me, I can take you to the hospital for a thorough check-up!"
Seeing the time pass, Yu Jing regretted not bringing Shan Shan. At least she would have had someone to help. However, she didn't want others to know about the incident with Mu Yan, as it was embarrassing. In her helplessness, she directly instructed Mu Yan, "No, no one can handle this. Mu Yan, help me to the car and take me somewhere!"
Mu Yan didn't know what her urgent matter was. Although he was initially dissatisfied with her, he softened his heart, thinking about their past, and agreed.
Yu Jing didn't take her Bentley but a relatively ordinary BMW 7 Series.
After helping her into the car, Mu Yan took the car keys she handed over and immediately sat in the driver's seat.
"Where are you going?" Mu Yan asked.
"Yumiao Kindergarten!" Yu Jing said.
"I don't know the way!" Mu Yan, upon hearing she was going to a kindergarten, knew she had a daughter and guessed she was going to pick her up. Although she was usually cold, she seemed to be very good to her daughter.
"I'll tell you. Drive quickly, don't worry about the speed limit!" Yu Jing said.
Seeing how concerned she was about her daughter, Mu Yan couldn't help but think of his mother and himself. In a way, Yu Jing was similar to his mother. His mother was also abandoned by his father after becoming pregnant, and Yu Jing was pregnant when her husband passed away. Both were equally loving and caring towards their children, the only difference being that his mother was a regular teacher, while Yu Jing was the CEO of a large group.
Seeing the hardships his mother faced in raising him alone in Yu Jing, Mu Yan's impression of her greatly improved, and he immediately drove to Yumiao Kindergarten as fast as possible.
Yumiao Kindergarten was a private, high-end kindergarten. Although it was a bit late, most of the children had already been picked up, but the few cars still coming and going indicated that the children attending this kindergarten were from wealthy families.
There were security guards at the kindergarten entrance, clearly former military personnel, ensuring the best protection for the children of these important figures.
There was a parking lot inside the kindergarten, and after confirmation, cars could drive in directly.
The security guard, recognizing Yu Jing, immediately greeted her with a smile, "President Yu," and naturally assumed Mu Yan was the driver.
Since she couldn't walk, after parking the car, Yu Jing asked Mu Yan to pick up her daughter.
Mu Yan entered the building and quickly found Yu Jing's daughter's classroom. Only five or six children were left, including a little girl in a pink princess dress, wearing white knee-high socks and red leather shoes.
The girl was very beautiful. Mu Yan knew at a glance that she was Yu Jing's daughter, Su Yuxi, as the little girl was a child version of Yu Jing, lacking only her mother's cold and regal demeanor.
However, at that moment, the beautiful little princess had red eyes and was glaring at a chubby boy.
A teacher in her thirties was scolding the boy, "Li Qiang, how can you bully a girl?"
The chubby boy, Li Qiang, hearing the teacher's reprimand, said defiantly, "I didn't bully her. What I said is true. Su Yuxi is a child without a father. A child without a father..."
"You're the one without a father!" Li Qiang repeated several times, making Su Yuxi cry.
Li Qiang continued to repeat, "A child without a father," when suddenly, "Slap!" a large hand landed on his face, giving him a slap.
