Compared to Mrs. Yuan's agitation, Yun Jinnian was quite indifferent, gently handing over her handkerchief, "Nanny, it doesn't matter to me!"
Whether I can go or not, it doesn't matter.
I don't want to play with them anyway, it's boring.
"But, but…" Mrs. Yuan wanted to say something else but feared upsetting Yun Jinnian, so she took the handkerchief and wiped her tears.
"Not going also has its benefits, less friction and awkwardness, and I can keep company with Nanny!" Yun Jinnian said, holding the nanny's hand, "I would actually prefer staying in Niannian Garden to keep the New Year's vigil with Nanny. Without my mother by my side, in Jinnian's heart, Nanny is just like a mother to me!"
Moved by her words, Mrs. Yuan's eyes reddened again as she tightly held Yun Jinnian's hand.
"Nanny, why don't you go to the kitchen and cook something; I didn't eat my fill earlier!"
The food was good and exquisite, but the atmosphere was off, making it hard for her to swallow.
