357 Most importantly, be careful not to make mistakes
Cao Wanting was taken aback when she heard this.
Grandpa? The grandfather who didn't like her and her brother very much since she was a child, the old-fashioned old man with a withdrawn personality? Why did he ask Shi Zhaoting to take her back to City B?
Cao Weilun frowned and said, "En." A few days ago, I received a call from City B, I heard that the old man was seriously ill and wanted to see Wanting, and I was planning to arrange a time to take her back to City B in person. β
Cao Wanting's face was even worse, and regardless of Shi Zhaoting's presence, she said bluntly: "Dad, I don't want to go back!" Grandpa was so ruthless to you back then, why do you still ......"
"Wanting!"
Cao Weilun's face sank, and his sharp eyes flicked at her, Cao Wanting's heart jumped, and then she realized that she had lost her temper, so she quickly stopped her mouth, but her pink lips bit slightly, full of displeasure.
Shi Zhaoting on the side chuckled, as if he didn't care much about this scene.
He put his hands in his pockets and said, "Actually, Grandpa hoped that Ye Yan could also go back, but unfortunately he went to Meiguo to treat his eye injury, so he had to take Wanting back first." Since the second uncle is also planning to do this, then it will be easy to do, please do your best to prepare, I am afraid that my grandfather and his old man can't wait to see Wanting. β
The implication is that Old Man Cao's time is running out.
As he spoke, he threw an interesting look at Cao Wanting. Cao Wanting frowned slightly, for some reason, she vaguely sensed that there was something in his words, and the displeasure in her heart deepened.
Cao Weilun stood up from the desk, bowed slightly, and said, "Okay, I'll ask people to prepare, and I'll leave for City B tomorrow morning." β
"What? Leaving tomorrow morning? Daddy......"
Cao Wanting wanted to say something, but Cao Weilun threw another sharp look at her, and all the words were stuck in her throat and had to choke back into her stomach.
As soon as Shi Zhaoting left, she couldn't bear it anymore and asked bluntly, "Dad, what are you thinking?" Shi Zhaoting is not my cousin, why are you polite to him? Also, grandpa treated you so badly before, what's the point of you going back to see him now? β
There were no outsiders present, Cao Weilun's face softened slightly, but there was some profundity that Cao Wanting couldn't understand, he squinted a pair of dark eyes and said: "There are some things you don't understand, my surname is Cao, and I am a member of the Cao family in City B, this is a fact that can never be changed." Moreover, this is your grandfather's long-cherished wish for many years, and I promised him that as long as your grandfather is willing, I will take the two of you to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors. β
Cao Wanting was silent, and she couldn't refute it, but she faintly felt in her heart that things didn't seem to be so simple. But looking at my father's appearance, returning to City B is a fact that can't be changed.
She pursed her lips and accepted the fact: "Since this is the case, then I have nothing to say, but I have only one request. β
"What a request, you say."
"I don't want to stay in City B for too long," she thought for a moment and raised her hand to make a 'three' gesture, "no more than three days, I have to be back by Sunday, that's my limit." β
Cao Weilun finally laughed, "Don't worry, even if you don't say it, I won't stay in City B for so long." β
Cao Wanting finally nodded when she heard this, "Okay, I'll go and arrange the work for the next few days first, and then go home and pack my luggage." β
"Wait a minute, Wanting!" When she was about to walk to the door of the office, Cao Weilun suddenly called her again.
"What's the matter, Dad?"
For some reason, Cao Weilun's face showed a look of wanting to say something, and there was a trace of indescribable strictness and prudence on his face.
"When I come back from City B this time, the company will hold an annual general meeting of shareholders, and at that time a comprehensive audit will be done on the company's internal leadership, and you also know that I have always advocated a clear distinction between public and private, so you have to be mentally prepared, this audit will definitely be very strict."
Cao Wanting nodded approvingly: "Dad, don't worry, I understand what you mean, I also appreciate your clear style of handling things between public and private, there will be no objections, and I am also willing to accept the company's audit." β
Cao Weilun sighed, I was afraid that she didn't understand what she meant, looking at her for a long time, he looked serious, and said: "To be honest, you are a handsome talent, I have cultivated it single-handedly, I am very confident in you, but you also need to put your mind at ease, after all, things are not yet final, I hope you seize the opportunity while not taking it lightly, let alone being complacent, and not being too aggressive to show your edge, and most importantly, be careful not to make mistakes." β
Cao Wanting was slightly stunned, and then she vaguely heard the hidden meaning of Cao Weilun's words, and couldn't help frowning, "Dad, you seem to be troubled, did the company's shareholders say something to you?" β
Seeing that she was aware, Cao Weilun stopped talking, shook his head and said, "No, I'm just reminding you, so be it, you go back first to make arrangements, and go back early to prepare your luggage." β
Cao Weilun didn't elaborate, and Cao Wanting didn't think much about it, she made the deployment in the past few days very quickly and effectively, and then went home to pack her luggage.
She also took the time to send an email to her sister-in-law Qin Sicheng, hoping that she would see her email as soon as she arrived in Los Angeles, the content was very simple, nothing more than telling sΓΉ that she missed her brother and sister-in-law very much, and also mentioned that she was going back to City B.
The flight that Qin Sicheng and Ye Yan took was delayed, and the plane that was originally scheduled for 9 o'clock in the morning was delayed for two hours, and it arrived in Los Angeles at about 8 o'clock in the morning local time.
When he arrived at the hotel where he stayed and packed his luggage, Qin Sicheng pushed Ye Yan to the restaurant for breakfast.
As if she had telepathy, while eating breakfast, she opened her mobile phone and opened her mailbox, and the first email that popped up on the page was Cao Wanting's.
When she saw the last line of words, she was stunned and patted Ye Yan beside her: "Ah Yan, is your ancestral home in City B?" β
Unintentionally mentioning this, the coffee cup in Ye Yan's hand paused, and asked rhetorically, "Why did you suddenly ask about this?" β
"Wanting said that she was going back to City B with her father."
Ye Yan frowned slightly, put the half-drunk coffee cup back on the table, and vaguely felt that something was wrong, Qin Sicheng couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's wrong?" β
After a pause, Ye Yan asked rhetorically again: "Sicheng, you should know that I am the only grandson of the Cao family in City B, but do you know why I never see my relatives in City B?" β
Hearing this, Qin Sicheng nodded and frowned: "Well, don't you say that I haven't thought much about it, but now that you mention it, I think about it, even when we made up the banquet, they didn't show up, it's really strange to think about it, it stands to reason that you, the only grandson, should not be invited to be there?" β
