Free Web NovelChapter 268: Chapter 268: The Attitude Change of the Zhang Sisters _1
Zhang Ruoyu and her sister immediately entered work mode.
Ye Ming, on the other hand, left the scene in their capable hands and went to Ningjiang City Hospital to visit an old friend of his grandfather.
After days of recuperation, Elder Zhang’s complexion had clearly improved a lot, and his mindset had become very positive.
When he saw Ye Ming’s surprise visit, a look of astonishment instantly appeared on his face, making him seem very happy.
"You must be Little Ye, right?"
Upon meeting, Elder Zhang did not even need to ask before he guessed Ye Ming’s identity.
Ye Ming was somewhat surprised, "Elder Zhang, it seems like this is our first meeting, right? How do you know me?"
Elder Zhang chuckled warmly, taking Ye Ming’s hand enthusiastically, he said, "It’s no big deal for me, because you and your grandfather look so much alike. You and your father are even more like as if cast from the same mold!"
"Although I am advanced in years, I am not yet at the stage of blurred sight, and of course, I recognized you at first glance."
"It’s just that..." His voice trailing off, emotions surfacing, the smile on Elder Zhang’s face suddenly vanished, replaced by a look of guilt, "Little Ye, my unfilial son has wronged you, he has completely lost face for me, I truly have no face to meet you!"
Elder Zhang, with his kind and benevolent appearance, was a very gentle old man, completely different from Zhang Lijun. Ye Ming even doubted whether Zhang Lijun was really Elder Zhang’s biological son.
Ye Ming took a strong liking to the old man before him, and as they sat together, they began to engage in a lively conversation.
"Elder Zhang, what’s done is done. He is who he is, and you are who you are, I don’t hold it against you."
"Elder Zhang, could you tell me about my grandfather and my father?"
...
For the entire afternoon, Ye Ming stayed in the hospital room, listening to Elder Zhang recount stories about his grandfather and father.
Unknowingly, the sky had already turned dark.
Zhang Ruoyu and her sister, having finished their work, also arrived at the hospital room at this time.
Hurt by the recent events, Zhang Ruoyu had completely lost hope in the Zhang family, holding no attachment, except for her grandfather.
Upon entering, both sisters were quite surprised by Ye Ming’s presence.
Seeing the two of them chatting animatedly, an unusual feeling began to well up in Zhang Ruoyu’s heart.
"Grandfather..."
"Ye Ming, I truly thank you this time. You’ve taught me a lot, and you’ve given me a chance to start over, which I will grasp firmly," Zhang Ruoyu said.
"I am really sorry for what happened before."
"From now on, I will take good care of the Zhang Corporation’s assets for you; I will never betray your trust!"
Zhang Ruoyu’s expression was extremely earnest, like a secretary reporting for duty.
Her actual secretary, Zhang Ruoxue, stood by the side, her gaze equally resolute.
After this experience, she also matured a lot, at least able to clearly discern right from wrong. She had nothing but deep respect for Ye Ming, without any other thoughts.
Ye Ming pursed her lips in a smile and said, "There’s one more property belonging to the Zhang family, it’s your ancestral home, which I also only recently learned about."
"Now that Elder Zhang’s health is nearly restored, you two sisters can take him out of the hospital and move in there. That property doesn’t need to be part of the Zhang family’s estate."
Zhang Ruoyu’s eyes filled with astonishment, amazement, and delight.
"Thank you!"
After thinking for a long time, she uttered only two words.
Ye Ming had already given her so much, and she didn’t know how to repay him.
Just when she wanted to say something more, Ye Ming didn’t give her the chance and turned to leave. ƒrēewebnovel.com
His trip to Ningjiang City was just for this minor matter, and now that it was nearly settled, it was time for him to go back.
After he left, Elder Zhang’s face still bore a full smile.
"Ruoyu, Ye Ming is a good boy," Elder Zhang said.
If these words had been said before, Zhang Ruoyu would have scoffed at them, not believing a word.
But hearing them now, she pursed her lips, said nothing, and simply nodded.
She never expected Ye Ming to be so good to her.
Her heart was filled with gratitude.
Elder Zhang continued to smile and said, "So, you must seize the opportunity well. Grandfather can’t give you much, only that marriage agreement."
"Grandfather, about the marriage agreement..." Zhang Ruoyu started to reveal the truth but was afraid that the elder would be upset, so she swallowed her words back down.
Elder Zhang said calmly, "Since the day the marriage agreement was made, there’s no going back on it. Ruoyu, you have to grasp your own happiness."
"Grandfather can only get you started; the continuation of the story is up to you to work hard for."
"Grandfather..." Zhang Ruoyu frowned, visibly troubled.
But soon after, she had an epiphany and suddenly understood her grandfather’s meaning.
Grasping it on her own, that meant...
Anyway, the marriage agreement was still in place, and she had never acknowledged the annulment in the first place; it was all just Ye Ming being sentimental.
With this realization, a smile appeared on Zhang Ruoyu’s face.
But at this time, Ye Ming had already left the hospital. When Zhang Ruoyu ran out to chase after him, Ye Ming was already nowhere to be seen.
"Can I grasp it?"
Zhang Ruoyu felt a sense of loss as she stared blankly in the direction Ye Ming had left, murmuring to herself. freёwebnoѵel.com
After leaving, the two sat in the car, and Lin Bingqing’s face wore a smile.
She joked, "Master, I must say, your personal charm is indeed extraordinary. This time, Zhang Ruoyu’s attitude towards you has completely changed!"
"It seems like she’s been charmed by you."
Ye Ming hastily stopped her, saying, "What nonsense? She’s simply grateful to me, that’s all."
Lin Bingqing raised her eyebrows and said very seriously, "Women understand women best, I can feel it. And the way she looks at you has completely changed; her eyes are full of love, her admiration for you has reached a point that can’t be expressed in words."
"Master, why don’t you just take this opportunity and win her over?"
Ye Ming pretended to be angry and gave Lin Bingqing a look, signaling her to stop talking.
He was already very troubled by the marriage agreement; he had finally escaped from one, and he didn’t want to stir things up again.
Lin Bingqing chuckled and stopped talking, then said to Ye Ming, "Master, we’ve already missed the flight back, why don’t we enjoy ourselves in Ningjiang City?"
"I’ve heard that the nightlife in Ningjiang City is very beautiful, and I’ve never seen it before!"
Ye Ming looked at the time; it was already ten o’clock at night, and returning was not an option, but it was also too early to sleep, so he agreed to her suggestion.
