Chapter 175 I Don't Want Anything
“You…” Old Master Cheng scrutinized Yunzhi.
Could it be that she's planning to outwardly comply while inwardly defying her?
But all Grandpa Cheng saw on her face was sincerity.
The old man sat back down, and the words and reasons he had prepared beforehand seemed powerless at that moment.
"You believe me? Aren't you afraid I'm lying to you? Just because I don't agree to you being with Shuyan?" The old man had seen all kinds of people in his life, but he had never seen anyone like Yunzhi, who seemed both stupid and shrewd.
“Grandpa, whether what you said is true or false, our goal is the same, isn’t it? We all want Shuyan to be alright. As long as Shuyan is alright, I’m willing to stay far away from this expert because of what he said. After all, I’m not with him because I want anything to happen to him.”
Yunzhi shrugged, her tone light and cheerful.
Moreover, this statement has already been proven true in my previous life.
She couldn't afford to gamble even if there was only a one percent or one in a thousand chance in her entire life.
Grandpa Cheng looked at Yunzhi intently for a long time.
"If it weren't for... I really wish you two could be together."
There might never be another person in the world as unconditionally good to Cheng Shuyan as Yunzhi. The old man couldn't help but sigh in his heart at the cruel tricks of fate.
"Then I will try my best to satisfy you with whatever you want."
He could only try to make up for Yunzhi's shortcomings by providing her with material things.
Even now, the old man still believes that Yunzhi's family is of average means. Even though Yunzhi has shown remarkable talent, his preconceived notions are very difficult to change.
"I don't want anything." Yunzhi stroked the teacup in her hand.
She could have easily made a request at this time to have Old Master Cheng secretly sabotage Ye Chengyan.
The truly wise hide in plain sight. The Cheng family, as a low-profile and long-established wealthy family, is still not to be underestimated. With the help of the Cheng family, her path to revenge will be much smoother.
But Yunzhi didn't. She didn't want any interests involved in her relationship with Cheng Shuyan. Once interests were involved, her initial purpose would become impure.
After she finished speaking, she pushed the check, which was covered in nines, back to her.
"Grandpa, now that we've finished talking, I'll keep my promise and I'll be leaving now." Yunzhi stood up and prepared to leave.
No matter how composed she appeared on the surface, it was impossible for her not to care at all; she had no appetite whatsoever.
Just as Yunzhi was about to leave, the old man called out to her, "Wait a minute."
Yunzhi turned around and looked at the old man with a puzzled expression.
The old man took a sip of tea. "You should finish your meal before you leave. Otherwise, when Shuyan comes back and doesn't see you, he might blame this old man."
Old Master Cheng's cloudy eyes revealed a shrewdness.
Yunzhi almost laughed; she still didn't like this old man.
The old man prioritizes his own interests, and she has a strong suspicion that in the future, in order to prevent Cheng Shuyan from blaming him, the old man will shift all the blame onto her.
Then there will be a good show to watch.
The old man was a born businessman. Everything he did was driven by his own interests, and his first consideration was always himself.
Thinking about it, it's just human nature, but the way it was done was a bit disgusting.
"Okay." Yunzhi's eyes darted around before she sat down.
the other side.
After Cheng Shuyan took the old man's things out of VIP room number 3, he unexpectedly saw two people somewhere in the lobby.
The pairing of Ye Chengyan and Miss Bai is quite novel.
The two looked like they were on a blind date. Miss Bai was just as unreserved as last time, taking every opportunity to lean against Ye Chengyan. But Ye Chengyan was as oblivious as ever. Every time she came close, he would pull away without changing his expression.
After Miss Bai nearly fell over once, Cheng Shuyan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
His voice drew their attention.
Ye Chengyan and Bai Weiwei both looked in his direction at the same time.
When the two saw Cheng Shuyan, their faces darkened simultaneously.
"What are you doing here?" Bai Weiwei suddenly stood up, looking at him with disgust.
Because of him, the Bai Group lost several projects.
So what if they spread some rumors outside? No wonder they're from the Cheng family; their hearts are as small as a pinhole.
"What? This is a restaurant under your Bai Group? Is it only for members of the Bai family?"
She's as stupid as ever.
Bai Weiwei also realized that she had asked a stupid question.
Her face flushed with anger, she looked at Ye Chengyan, who hadn't said a word, and deliberately spoke in a low voice, "Chengyan, look at him."
Let alone Ye Chengyan, Cheng Shuyan got goosebumps all over.
"Mr. Ye, you really aren't picky about anything." Cheng Shuyan looked at him with a half-smile, despite Bai Weiwei's murderous glare. "Wait a minute, Mr. Ye, weren't you and Miss Yu about to have a wedding? What's going on between you two now?"
A hint of impatience flashed in Ye Chengyan's eyes.
He was tricked by President Bai into coming here. President Bai asked him to come here under the pretext of discussing cooperation, but when he arrived, he only saw Bai Weiwei. Ye Chengyan instantly understood that President Bai wanted to match him up with Bai Weiwei.
Just as Ye Chengyan was about to leave, he received a call from President Bai. President Bai's idea was that as long as he had a meal with Bai Weiwei, he could come to Ye's to sign a contract that evening. One meal in exchange for a contract was a very good deal, so he didn't turn around and leave.
He originally thought it would just be a casual meal, but Bai Weiwei kept finding all sorts of excuses to provoke him. In fact, before Cheng Shuyan spoke up, he was already very impatient and was preparing to find an excuse to get away as soon as possible.
Bai Weiwei naturally knew about Ye Chengyan and Yu Baisu's relationship.
She simply didn't take Yu Baisu seriously.
Yu Baisu has been by Ye Chengyan's side for so many years without any official title or status; it's impossible for her to rise in rank.
"Mr. Cheng, this is between us. What does it have to do with you? If you're so free, Mr. Cheng, you should spend more time with your girlfriend." Bai Weiwei rolled her eyes at Cheng Shuyan, then covered her lips with one hand, feigning surprise.
"Mr. Cheng, you and your girlfriend haven't broken up, have you? Well, Grandpa Cheng values family traditions and wouldn't agree to you marrying just any woman."
"Miss Bai, you should mind your own business. We've already met each other's parents, so it's perfectly legitimate for us to separate. As for being casual, everyone in the industry knows that Miss Bai is the most casual one."
Cheng Shuyan's voice suddenly turned cold.
Bai Weiwei said he was one thing, but she even mentioned Yunzhi.
Who does she think she is? She doesn't deserve to be called one.
Bai Weiwei seemed surprised that Cheng Shuyan would directly expose her shame.
Her reputation for falling in love with every man she meets is well-known in the industry, but no one has ever been as disrespectful to her in public as Cheng Shuyan.
