You have to understand that for two people to be together is already a rare thing, and for you to have children is even more precious.
Out of so many women, he chose you, doesn’t that prove that you are the one he truly desires?
Moreover, you have two children. Although in the past you raised Mumu and Ruo Ruo very well on your own, they didn’t know they had a father. Now, they have everything: a complete family and abundant material wealth. Can you bear to let them return to that kind of life?
“No, Grandpa, really not. I… I also don’t want Mumu and Ruo Ruo to go back to having nothing.” Lan Baobao lowered her head, fiddling with her fingers. She couldn’t hide her inner guilt anymore and was afraid that if the old man heard the truth, it would trigger his high blood pressure and heart disease.
If something happened to the old man, first, Lan Baobao would feel uneasy; second, if the head of the Ye Group died, it would definitely cause a stir.
The old man cannot have anything happen to him, at least not during this period; he absolutely must not have any issues.
Thinking of this, Lan Baobao could only lie: “Ye Zixun has been doing well lately. He works hard and takes good care of me and loves the two kids.
He hasn’t done anything to make me sad; it’s just that I feel this isn’t the life I want. After getting married, I realized I’ve become less like myself.
All I think about are chaotic things. Many times, I feel like I’m suffocating.
I want to find my old self again, so I just thought about getting a divorce. I thought if things got worse, I could return to how I used to be.
I know this is unfilial towards you, Grandpa, but don’t worry. Even if I divorce Ye Zixun, Mumu and Ruo Ruo will still be your great-grandchildren. They won’t face any problems just because we divorced.”
With such a obedient and filial granddaughter-in-law, how could Grandpa Ye easily let her go? He sighed deeply and said, “If Ye Zixun hasn’t done anything excessive, then I won’t allow you two to divorce. If that Stinky Kid really did something wrong, I’ll break his legs!
However, no matter what happens, as long as one of you is alive, you cannot separate!”
Grandpa Ye’s intention was simply for Lan Baobao to consider these things and agree not to divorce Ye Zixun. But Lan Baobao had already made up her mind long ago; besides, she had wanted to beat up Ye Zixun herself.
However, the last sentence made Lan Baobao feel quite uncomfortable.
Three black lines appeared on her forehead…
Only death can separate them? Does that mean she is bound to Ye Zixun for life?
Ah, this is even more of a headache than that ten-year contract!
"Grandpa, I know you care about us, but we..." Lan Baobao still kept her head down, and after saying a few words, she fell silent again.
But what else could she say? What could she possibly say to defend herself now?
She tried to think...
Unfortunately, her mind just wasn't working well at critical moments; after thinking for a long time, she still couldn't come up with anything to say.
It seemed that no matter what she said, the old man wouldn't change his decision.
Lan Baobao finally understood that Ye Zixun's stubbornness was just like someone else's. It was exactly like the old man's!
Seeing Lan Baobao not speaking, the old man guessed what was on her mind. Since she was unwilling to agree and didn't want to divorce Ye Zixun, it was clear that her heart was already set.
However, looking at her hesitating and with tears in her eyes,
the problem was already quite evident.
Lan Baobao's heart must still be in love with that good-for-nothing grandson of his; since Lan Baobao still loved Ye Zixun,
then it must be this Stinky Kid who did something again to make her sad.
Stinky Kid! Why can't he ever let people rest easy?
Just when one wave had calmed down, another storm immediately arose.
Damn it, does this Stinky Kid think the house isn't lively enough? Does he want to spice up life a bit?
Although Grandpa Ye was a decisive and somewhat domineering person in his youth, he had gradually come to understand that some things cannot be forced upon others. If Lan Baobao truly didn't love that detestable grandson of his, he would definitely not stand in her way.
But she still loved Ye Zixun, so they couldn't easily part ways.
The old man was upset, not because of Lan Baobao.
He was angry at Ye Zixun, thinking about how he was married yet still misbehaving and causing trouble outside! The old man was filled with Fury; if he didn't properly teach him a lesson, he would definitely go up there himself!
"Come on, Baobao, accompany Grandpa to eat. Grandpa is hungry."
"Okay!"
Finally escaping this very awkward topic, Lan Baobao was more than happy to call Aunt Li and have her prepare the old man's favorite Chinese dishes.
After finishing breakfast with Lan Baobao, the old man wanted to rest. He went upstairs alone.
As soon as he sat down in his room, he picked up the phone and dialed Ye Zixun's office number.
"I want to speak to your president. Hurry up and get him to take my call!" As soon as the Secretary answered the phone, Grandpa Ye's tone shot up several notches, as if he were about to erupt like a volcano.
The assistant recognized the old man and could tell from Grandpa Ye's voice.
Which man could be like Grandpa Ye, at such an old age, still able to shout like this over the phone?
This time, Grandpa Ye didn't refer to Ye Zixun as "that turtle son" or "that bastard," which was already considered polite.
Assistant Lin quickly handed the phone to Ye Zixun.
"Grandpa, what’s going on? I'm quite busy at this time. Can we talk when I get home?"
Ye Zixun was in the office giving instructions to his subordinates. Generally, in such situations, he wouldn't easily take calls, but since it was Grandpa Ye on the other end, not answering would be akin to courting disaster.
However, as soon as he picked up the phone, Ye Zixun immediately regretted it.
“Stinky Kid! You little brat, what have you been up to outside? You disappear every evening, do you think you're the Prime Minister, busy busy busy! Let me tell you, I also came up from your position, and there's no way you're going to fool me!
I’m telling you, stop giving me excuses; I’m not listening!” As soon as the call connected, Grandpa Ye’s Fury erupted, and he started shouting into the phone.
Grandpa Ye was even cursing now, which showed just how upset he was!
“I’m working at the company, Grandpa. There’s really a lot going on today; can you calm down?” Ye Zixun had no idea why this old man suddenly exploded and came looking for trouble.
Ye Zixun couldn’t be tough with him; he could only try to soothe the old man little by little.
“You little rascal, stop talking nonsense! I’m not an idiot; I won’t fall for your Pup tricks. Listen to me: after you get off work today, come back immediately. Don’t delay for even a second, and don’t use work as an excuse to brush me off! I have something to say to you. Come back right after work; if you dare play tricks on me, I’ll break your legs!” After giving his orders, the old man hung up the phone quickly, leaving no room for a response.
Fortunately, this old man still had some status in the Ye Family.
Otherwise, Ye Zixun might really be unable to handle this Pup!
Once the call ended, Ye Zixun couldn’t help but feel a headache coming on.
In his life so far, Ye Zixun had never been afraid of anyone except for this long-lived old man because he was his grandfather. No matter how imposing he was outside with people surrounding him, once he returned home and faced the old man, he had to be obedient.
People outside feared him greatly, but at home…
There was Ye Ziyun, and then there was Grandpa Ye. Both of them had him under their thumb. Ye Zixun was a prince outside but a grandson at home.
Is this happiness? Or what is it…
Ye Zixun’s headache grew worse. Everyone at the company dared not look him in the eye or even breathe heavily in front of him.
In the evening, as Ye Zixun was about to get off work, Mu Mu sneakily slipped out of the old man’s room.
In the whole family, Grandpa Ye spoiled Mumu and Ruo Ruo the most. After all, they were his great-grandchildren; he tried his best to indulge them in whatever they wanted to do. No matter what they did, these two little ones would never face scolding from others.
All the servants of the Ye Family dared not say anything against this practitioner.
Therefore, Mumu and Ruo Ruo naturally felt very close to their Great-Grandfather.
Mumu, who had just sneaked out of Grandpa Ye's room, slipped into Lan Baobao's room, while Ruo Ruo followed behind, calling out "Brother, Brother" and running excitedly.
"Mommy, let's go for a walk. I ate so much today that my belly is all round, and I still haven't digested it. Mommy, please take me for a walk, okay?" As soon as Mumu entered Lan Baobao's room, he cleverly dove into her arms and acted cute, while Ruo Ruo, seeing her brother like this, also eagerly squeezed into Lan Baobao's embrace, calling out "Mommy, Mommy."
What is wrong with these two?
Have they short-circuited their brains today or suddenly found their conscience? Have they turned into normal children?
Lan Baobao shook her head.
What was she thinking? Even if her brain became closer to a normal person's way of thinking, these two children's minds could not possibly become that close to normal.
There must be a conspiracy!
Lan Baobao reached out to stroke the two children in her arms and said helplessly, "You two little rascals, what do you want to go for a walk at this time? You really are full of ideas. Tell me honestly, are you two planning something to trick me again? If so, just say it directly; I won't fall for your persistent tactics!"
