Chapter 26: You Really Plotted Against Me (2)
In Jiang Lili's memory, Grandpa Ye was also a handsome and beautiful man when he was young.
In terms of appearance, Ye Jiayan inherited a large part of the old man.
It's a pity that he didn't inherit the old man's character.
The old man single-handedly founded Ye's when he was young, and in his most glorious time, he still adhered to the essence of kindness and generosity, treated every employee leniently, and was keen on public welfare all his life.
The old man has two sons, and the two sons gave birth to two grandsons to him, and the Ye family has not had girls for several generations.
Therefore, Jiang Lili was favored by the old man when she was a child, and she was chased by the old man every day and told to marry Brother Jiayan when she grew up.
Sometimes, Jiang Lili also suspects that she likes Ye Jiayan so much, maybe she was brainwashed by the old man......
"Lili," the old man interrupted Jiang Lili's thoughts and asked, "How are you and Jiayan doing?" Jiayan didn't bully you, did he? β
"Nope. We're good. Jiang Lili held the old man's hand, "Grandpa, don't worry." If Jiayan bullies me, I'll tell you as soon as possible! β
"Hey, that's right." The old man nodded with satisfaction, "I'll teach him a hard lesson for you!" β
Jiang Lili smiled, his eyes were inexplicably hot, and he hurriedly looked ahead, trying to force the tears back.
After she woke up from drowning "accidentally", she didn't immediately go to Ye Jiayan and Zhuang Yayan to settle accounts, because she didn't want to make a big deal and didn't want her grandfather to know what happened.
Grandpa told her more than once that Ye Jiayan was the most outstanding person in the Ye family for generations, even better than him back then.
She knew very well that Ye Jiayan was her grandfather's greatest pride, and she didn't want to disappoint her grandfather.
A gust of autumn wind blew, Jiang Lili retracted his thoughts, and put his coat on his grandfather to prevent him from catching a cold.
The old man gathered his coat and continued: "Lili, you also know what Jiayan has experienced since she was a child. He is actually a very good child, but because of those experiences when he was a child, his personality is a little awkward. Promise Grandpa, be a little more patient with him, and he can give you happiness. β
Jiang Lili nodded: "Hmm!" β
The old man suddenly stopped and looked at Jiang Lili apologetically: "Do you think grandpa is too selfish?" β
"Of course not." Jiang Lili asked puzzledly, "Grandpa, why do you say that?" β
"I know you like Jiayan and know that you can take care of him, so I arranged for you to marry Jiayan. Now I hope you have patience with Jiayan. I'm thinking about Jiayan, it's too unfair to you. The old man sighed, "You live in a happy family, and you know what a happy woman is like since you were a childβjust like your mother." But right now, Jiayan can't give you stable happiness. β
"Grandpa, people are different from each other, and the standard of measuring happiness is also different. I didn't want to replicate my mom's life. Jiang Lili paused and said with a smile, "I'm willing to wait for Jiayan." β
The old man clenched Jiang Lili's hand, tears flashing in his eyes.
"Grandpa, let's talk about something else." Jiang Lili changed the topic, "I'm going to work tomorrow - to intern at Hengxin Law Firm." β
"You're going to work? So why don't you go to our own company? The old man frowned deeply, "How hard it is to be a lawyer, don't you have no time to come to see grandpa in the future?" β
"Yes!" Jiang Lili swore and said, "I'll come to see you on the weekend." β
ββ¦β¦ Hengxin, right? I asked Jiayan to contact their boss. The old man muttered to himself, "You can go to work, but you must not be bullied." β
Of course, Jiang Lili would not let Ye Jiayan come forward, but she didn't want her grandfather to worry, so she said: "Grandpa, three of the four founders of Hengxin are my father's students!" β
The implication is that she can't be bullied in Hengxin.
Sure enough, the old man was not only relieved, but also happy all of a sudden.
At nearly six o'clock, Ye Jiayan returned to Xinyu Villa, got off at the door and entered through the side door, and saw Jiang Lili and his grandfather walking in the garden after walking a few steps.
Uncle Wang, the housekeeper, saw Ye Jiayan first and walked over: "Jiayan, I'm back." β
"Uncle Wang."
Ye Jiayan said hello to Uncle Wang, but his eyes kept staring at Jiang Lili and his grandfather.
"Thanks to Lili for coming back." Uncle Wang said, "The old man refuses to take medicine at noon, but it makes me sad." Later, as soon as Lili came back, I didn't know what he said, and the old man immediately took the medicine! I wondered if I should learn from her. β
Uncle Wang was instructed by his grandfather to praise Jiang Lili in front of Ye Jiayan.
Ye Jiayan pretended not to find out, and said: "She just has a sweet mouth and can make grandpa happy." β
"You can't say that." Uncle Wang said, "There are more people with sweet mouths, and there is only one who can make the old man happy." β
Ye Jiayan glanced at Uncle Wang and reminded lightly: "Uncle Wang, enough is enough." β
Uncle Wang smiled and waved his hand: "Okay, I'll go and see if dinner is ready." β
At this time, the old man and Jiang Lili also noticed Ye Jiayan.
The old man said something to Jiang Lili, Jiang Lili ran back to the house, Ye Jiayan walked over very consciously and called, "Grandpa." β
"Count your boy as having the eyesight." Grandpa Ye said, "Lili told me that she was going to work at Hengxin, what kind of law firm was that?" β
Ye Jiayan remembered the information he searched for last night, and told his grandfather truthfully to reassure him.
"I wanted you to get to know the firm." The old man stared at Ye Jiayan and suddenly smiled, "It seems that you have already understood." β
"......" Ye Jiayan's face flashed with unnaturalness, and he emphasized a little hard, "Grandpa, I already knew Hengxin." β
"Oh?" The old man looked skeptical, "Really? β
ββ¦β¦β
Ye Jiayan didn't answer, avoiding the old man's inquiring gaze, and saw Jiang Lili coming out of the house.
She was holding two white mugs and walked a little carefully.
The old man poked Ye Jiayan's back with a cane, and the meaning was obvious.
Ye Jiayan walked over helplessly, took the two cups in Jiang Lili's hand, and said, "I'll take it." β
"There was a cup for you." Jiang Lili said, "Another cup for grandpa." β
She was probably in a good mood, smiling when she spoke, and the setting sun sprinkled a thin layer of golden light on her face, so dazzling that people couldn't take their eyes off it.
Ye Jiayan tried his best to restrain himself, said "um", walked to his grandfather with a teacup, and told the old man about the company.
Jiang Lili could understand a little bit, and then she knew that the company had a temporary accident last night, and Ye Jiayan worked overtime all night to deal with it.
The old man frowned: "There is such a big thing, didn't there be a lot of people in the company working overtime last night?" β
"Nope." Ye Jiayan said, "It's just me and Yangsheng." β
"You two have handled such a big thing?!"
The old man patted Ye Jiayan's shoulder with a smile, and did not hide his admiration for this young man at all.
Jiang Lili also looked at Ye Jiayan, and many chaotic thoughts flashed through his mind-
He didn't mention Zhuang Yayan.
Don't you dare?
Zhuang Yayan said that her grandfather did not agree with her being with Ye Jiayan. In front of his grandfather, of course Ye Jiayan could not mention Zhuang Yayan without mentioning it.
At this time, Uncle Wang, the housekeeper, came over and said that dinner was ready.
"Lili," the old man called Jiang Lili, "it's time to eat." β
During the whole process of eating, the old man was telling Ye Jiayan to take care of Jiang Lili, to pay attention to her movements in the law firm, and not to let her be bullied.
"We have never been wronged since we were children." The old man emphasized, "There is no reason to be wronged after going to work. β
"Grandpa," Ye Jiayan said, "don't be overly idealistic. β
"Don't reason with me." The old man said domineeringly, "Aren't you Ye Jiayan very face-saving now, and you can't protect your wife?" Less nonsense, just do what I say. β
"......" Ye Jiayan reluctantly agreed, "Okay." β
Jiang Lili can see it clearly - the only one who can restrain Ye Jiayan is his grandfather.
It's not for nothing that she likes and admires grandpa!
After the meal, the old man told Ye Jiayan a few more words, not leaving the young couple at all, but urging them to go back.
"Grandpa, it's still early." Jiang Lili said, "Let's talk with you for a while." β
"No, I'm going to rest soon." The old man patted Jiang Lili's hand, "You have to go to work tomorrow, go back early to prepare." β
Jiang Lili had no choice but to go with Ye Jiayan.
Ye Jiayan's driver got off work and could only go back with Jiang Lili in one car.
Jiang Lili handed him the car keys and said, "You can drive it." β
Ye Jiayan's driving skills were first-class, the car was speeding all the way, the scenery along the road was rapidly regressing, and he was far behind in the night.
Jiang Lili weighed it for a while, and said, "Don't follow what grandpa told you." If Grandpa asks, I will cooperate with you to deal with Grandpa. β
Ye Jiayan is right, grandpa is too idealistic.
If a person wants to work, it is inevitable to be wronged and experience setbacks. As a character who was newly born from the novice village, she needs this experience to grow.
Therefore, she didn't want Ye Jiayan to take care of her.
Ye Jiayan looked sideways at Jiang Lili: "Don't worry, I didn't plan to do what my grandfather said." β
"......" Jiang Lili almost vomited blood again, and complained, "Do you want to say that when you don't care about a person, you are so direct?" β
Ye Jiayan frowned and asked rhetorically, "What does this have to do with care?" Since you have to go to work, you have to learn to deal with the troubles and emotions that work brings you. An office can't be as comfortable as home. β
"I know!" Jiang Li said angrily, "So I asked you to leave me alone!" β
Ye Jiayanyun asked lightly: "Then why do you say I don't care about you?" β
"......" Jiang Lili was angry and anxious, but she was not Ye Jiayan's opponent, so she had to say, "This topic ends here!" β
ββ¦β¦β
Ye Jiayan looked at Jiang Lili and didn't say anything more.
This topic was provoked by Jiang Lili, and she was also going to end it, he had already done what she asked her to do, what else was she angry about?
The woman is really an emotional troublesome creature!
