Chapter 1224 No Room For Retreat
Old Mrs. Ye is a tough cookie; after being hospitalized because of Hou Zi, she was completely unaware of what was happening in the outside world; she was also concerned about her daughter’s safety, that’s why she urged again and again not to seek Ye Jian’s trouble!
Not to mention her son-in-law Sun Yaozu, the moment Hou Zi spread words of punishment, he knew it was something his mother-in-law and wife had stirred up, and very clearly understood that this wasn’t something he could simply interfere in.
Gossip between women should be treated like gossip between women; if he interfered, then Hou Zi wouldn’t be just releasing cats and snakes; most likely, he’ll send his men and stick their guns against his head.
Thank goodness Old Mrs. Ye had a good grasp of the matters in her daughter’s household, the moment Ye Zhixiang was frightened by the snakes, she promptly decided to give Sun Yaozu a call, telling him not to interfere, to prevent being targeted by Hou Zi.
Old Mrs. Ye absolutely supported her daughter and son-in-law’s family from the bottom of her heart; that’s also the main reason why Sun Yaozu always treated Old Mrs. Ye with respect.
But towards her foster son, Old Mrs. Ye wasn’t that kind-hearted.
Whenever she thought about how she was forced into a position of no retreat by Ye Jian, that darned girl, and could only hole herself up in the hospital, the foul mood in Old Mrs. Ye’s heart deepened.
If she doesn’t vent the uncomfortable feeling in her heart, it’s very likely that she’ll be spending a long time inside the hospital for real!
“How can you sit still at a time like this? You’ll have to handle Ying Ying’s matter properly! You mustn’t allow a bastard of unknown origins to step on Ying Ying’s head!”
Old Mrs. Ye was wearing a long face, a gloomy chill hung over her aged face, adding onto the fact that she was frightened badly for the past several dozen days, her round face had thinned a lot, the amiable face she had before was nowhere to be seen, with just a rough look, anyone would be able to see this was a bitter old granny.
“Ying Ying was hospitalized because of her, you’re her father and still not going to stand up for her. Do you know how let down she is because of you! Why the hell is the d*mned lass able to take the exam peacefully while Ying Ying’s Gaokao qualifications were revoked!”
“Governor intervened, so what? Are his paws so long that he can stretch them into your household?”
A b*stard of unknown origins that even Ye Zhifan couldn’t handle. Old Mrs. Ye only thought about it for a moment, then a layer of cold sweat started appearing behind her back.
She’s still an immature brat right now; if they don’t take care of her sooner, how would they stand against her in the future?!
Ye Zhifan kept his eyes closed the entire time; the expression on his face was gloomy yet so calm that Old Mrs. Ye wasn’t certain what exactly he was thinking about.
Seeing he wasn’t riled up, Old Mrs. Ye gave him another huge dosage, she pressed her throat down as if she was exasperated at her son’s failure: “Could it be, you still want to give away the good things that you already have! The moment the d*rned lass gain some footing, then our whole family can stop dreaming of having a peaceful life!”
“Also, I don’t believe she is really that capable! She turned her nose up at Huaqiao University and Guangxi University, from what I see, it’s not because they’re unworthy. Instead, it was her knowing her place and knew she couldn’t get in!”
The Jade pendant…, jade pendant, he had allowed his daughter to risk herself because of that jade pendant, in the end, this was the ending they had ended up with.
No matter how anxious he was, no matter how badly he wanted to see Ye Jian at her lowest point, he’ll have to endure it, for his own career… he must keep enduring.
As to why Old Granny Ye kept urging him to act, a cold chill flashed across Ye Zhifan’s face; he slowly opened his eyes and looked at the glum-faced Old Mrs. Ye, “When there is life, there is hope. Ma, I believe with your wisdom, you would at least understand why I need to endure this, right.”
“I’ve been a government official for more than a decade, those tricks of yours wouldn’t work on me, so just stop. Also, Ying Ying’s mother would be coming by later, if she sees you’re here, who knows how noisy this place will be.”
What he meant was for Old Mrs. Ye to leave quickly.
