Jin Liwei waited for his brother to digest what he just said. It took a few moments before Jin Chonglin spoke again.

"I understand, Big Bro," he replied. Another pause. "I was wondering why you've been distancing Jin Corporation from the Fans but now I see why." He sighed. "I can't believe all of the things they have done. Are they all true?"

"En."

Jin Chonglin sighed again. "Mom is heartbroken, did you know? It's like when Dad died. She won't eat or go out of her room. I'm worried for Mom, Big Bro."

This time, it was Jin Liwei's turn to sigh. His chest tightened. Their mother, Huang Yuyan, had always been delicate at heart. She almost broke beyond repair when their father died. It was actually Fan Luo and her mother who helped Huang Yuyan recover from her debilitating grief.

And now this happened. Jin Liwei couldn't help but feel guilty towards his mother. Noticing the direction of his thoughts, he hardened his heart. It was better this way. The truth was hard to swallow, but it was better than living in an illusion.

"Mother recovered then. She will recover this time as well," Jin Liwei said. His words were meant to persuade not only Jin Chonglin but also himself. "I'll ask Grandmother to stay with her."

"Good idea. Mom needs someone with her right now."

"En."

The two brothers didn't have much to talk about to each other. It was mostly Jin Liwei instructing his brother on what to do.

"Remember, our Jin family has now severed ties with the Fans. We have nothing to do with them anymore. Whatever happens to them during this time, don't soften your heart and make the mistake of helping them in any way. This is just the beginning," Jin Liwei reminded his brother before the call ended.

Jin Liwei stared at the phone. Making up his mind, he dialled. It rang and rang and rang but nobody answered. He tried calling two more times before giving up.

He sighed and leaned back on his seat. It seemed that his mother was still angry at him. She wouldn't answer any of his calls. He wasn't surprised but it still hurt.

All he could do was endure for now. She would eventually come around. He was her own son after all.

He made another call; this time, to his grandmother. Grandma Li agreed to leave the mountains and return to the old house to accompany Huang Yuyan.

She sniffed in disdain. "I knew that the Fans are no good, but I never imagined that they would be this bad. If your grandfather were still alive, he wouldn't let them get close to our family in the first place. It's beyond me how they could brainwash your mother to this degree. Don't worry, my dear. I'll take care of your mother. Just do what you need to do."

"Thank you, Grandmother."

"Good. Don't forget to send my regards to dear Xiulan. Tell her that Grandma misses her."

"En, I will."

After the call, Jin Liwei returned to directing the Fan family's downfall. Fan Luo was still relatively unscathed at the moment. Next would be her turn and in extension, the Alarm Girls. Just like what he told his brother Jin Chonglin, this was just the beginning.
