After coming out of the house, Jian Yubo didn't leave immediately.
He walked to the banyan tree and sat down with his back against the trunk.
The breeze caressed his face. He closed his eyes and looked as though he was asleep. His expression was serene.
His right hand gently played with the string of beads on his left wrist.
The image that appeared in front of his eyes was Jian Yiling's appearance.
His expression gradually calmed down.
However, the image changed again. The image of He Yan tearing up the chess record in front of him appeared in his mind.
Then, he felt the burning pain of boiling water falling on his back. It was as though even after so many years, the area on his back still felt hot.
Jian Yubo suddenly opened his eyes. He got up and left the Old Jian Residence.

That night, Grandpa Jian called Jian Shuxing and Jian Yuncheng to his study.
The three of them talked for a long time in the study.
There were some problems with the Jian family's business in the hands of Jian Shuxing and Jian Shuhong.
However, it wasn't a big problem so far.
That was until Jian Yubo came to see Grandpa Jian today.
Only then did the old man realize how big the hidden meaning behind these problems was.
He also knew how these problems came about.
This wasn't done in a day or two. It was done over the course of several years. The internal encroachment and the external attack.
The culprit behind all of this was none other than Jian Yubo.
Jian Yubo had spent several years doing these things that harmed the Jian family's business.
Then, Jian Yubo listed the next few paths that the Jian family could take in front of Grandpa Jian.
It was obvious that before he came, he had already calculated all the possibilities. He had blocked all the possible paths that the Jian family could take.
None of the possibilities were good for the Jian family. In the worst case scenario, the Jian family would be greatly weakened.
In the end, he made a request to Grandpa Jian. He wanted Grandpa Jian to hand over the Jian family's business to him. If he did that, he would stop.
Otherwise, all the crises that he had told Grandpa Jian would become a reality.
Grandpa Jian had lived for most of his life. However, this was the first time that he had encountered such a threat. And it was from his grandson.
Grandpa Jian was so angry that he threw everything in front of him on the ground.
However, Jian Yubo just looked at Grandpa Jian calmly. His face was expressionless. It seemed as though he had expected such a reaction from Grandpa Jian.
He even coldly told the old man that he couldn't change his plans even if he was beaten to death.
"Why is Yubo doing this?" Jian Shuxing didn't understand. "If he wants the Jian family's business, he doesn't have to do this. He can inherit at least half of the Jian family's business. Does he want all of it …"
Neither Jian Yumin nor Jian Yujie wanted to inherit the Jian family's business.
Before today, Jian Shuhong had even made plans to hand over the part of the Jian family business that he managed to his nephew, Jian Yuncheng.
If Jian Yubo wanted it, the part that Jian Shuhong was currently managing would be his. He didn't need to fight for it.
Grandpa Jian shook his head: "For him to be able to do this, his career and power in the outside world are no less than that of the Jian family."
Although it was hard to believe, the reality was right in front of him. He had no choice but to believe it.
What Jian Yubo had now surpassed the Jian family. At the very least, it was comparable to the Jian family. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to do those things.
"Then, there's even less reason for him to do that, isn't there?" Jian Shuxing asked. He was even more confused.
