Chapter 760: [Yan Jian Extra] 29. If I were to die, would you be willing to let go (10,000 words)_3

Yan Jian also exclaimed, "A hundred problems!"

He immediately had a thought and couldn’t help but turn to look at him, "But... how were you able to solve them? Did you cheat by secretly asking my sister-in-law?"

Yan Jian could feel that, although James was never particularly respectful to his sister-in-law, she took great care of James. She genuinely treated James as her younger brother, so if James asked her for help, she would tell him.

James, however, blushed and slapped the table in frustration, "No! I wouldn’t ask her for help; I can find the answers myself!"

Yan Jian thought for a moment and suddenly found himself laughing.

He squinted, "Why are you laughing?" 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Yan Jian couldn’t control himself, laughing uncontrollably, "Since you didn’t ask my sister-in-law, did you ask Jieyou then? But I can hardly believe it; you clearly don’t seem to be fond of Jieyou. Even though she’s your niece, it seems like you haven’t met and spoken with her formally."

Even the last time he went to the Tang Family and saw Jieyou from afar, he didn’t show any uncle-like affection toward her.

The Tang Family understood; they knew he was obstructed by the barrier of Huangfu Huazhang, making it emotionally difficult for him to accept Jieyou.

She even laughed, indicating that if he truly initiated contact with Jieyou, it would seem ridiculous and embarrassing in others’ eyes.

He turned his head away regretfully, no longer wanting to speak.

Yan Jian’s laughter halted as he stared at him in shock, disbelief evident in his voice, "Could it be, you really did ask Jieyou? Oh, but when and where? How come we’ve never heard Jieyou mention it?"

Jieyou’s identity was unique, and since it was shortly after Huangfu Huazhang’s passing, everyone in the Tang Family protected Jieyou closely. But there was no mention of James ever meeting Jieyou alone!

James clearly didn’t want to answer, and Yan Jian grew anxious, forgetting his urge to escape him, focused solely on Jieyou’s safety, rushing over to him, staring him down, "Tell me! How did you find a moment to meet Jieyou?!"

If he could find a moment to meet Jieyou, doesn’t that imply others might also have a chance? Wouldn’t that mean Jieyou is unsafe?

Her face was full of deep concern, and James slightly frowned at the sight.

"Tang Yanjian, Jieyou isn’t a Tang. You just think of yourself as her auntie, but you’re actually not her auntie!"

"But I love her!" Yan Jian grew even more anxious, grabbing James by the collar, "You better say it!"

James was stunned.

His parents, brothers, and relatives—though they were close kin, each was only concerned about themselves; he had never felt genuine, clear love from family. Consequently, Yan Jian’s familial affection, devoid of bloodline, was foreign and incomprehensible to him.

He took a deep breath and said, "Kindergarten."

Yan Jian turned his neck slightly.

Yes, Jieyou was only out of the family’s sight during her time at kindergarten during the day.

James awkwardly explained, "My subordinate just happened to have a child going to kindergarten, so I helped by sending him to the same school as Jieyou. Every week there are parent-child activities, so I pretended to be that child’s parent and went along."

That’s how he got to talk to Jieyou.

But what embarrassed him was, the first time he went, Jieyou recognized him. He even introduced himself to her solemnly, saying he was David’s uncle; but Jieyou glanced around with her charming eyes, seeing no one paying attention, covered her mouth and with a sly smile, whispered to him, "I know you, you’re my uncle; your name is James."

Just one glance at the Tang Family’s place, Little Swallow and Mommy had pointed him out to her once, and she remembered.

Because they all have the same blue eyes, because their blood vessels flow with the same blood.

At that moment, he couldn’t help but tear up, and for the first time, he felt affection for this child. There were then multiple opportunities to gather at the kindergarten; he got the answers he wanted and began to bring Jieyou small gifts unconsciously, playing on swings and games with her... Jieyou obediently agreed not to tell the family about it.

At that time, Jieyou clung to his shoulder, covered her mouth and softly whispered, "Uncle James, are you afraid of losing face?"

Yan Jian, hearing this, felt an array of mixed emotions.
