At this time, the family banquet at the Wang family's old residence has ended.
Wang Lingying was called to the room by the old lady. There were no outsiders here, only the grandfather and grandson.
"Sit down."
Mrs. Jiang pointed to the chair on the side.
Wang Lingying sat down, showing no interest.
"Do you remember what happened when you were a child?"
said the old lady.
Wang Lingying was a little confused. Looking at the old lady, she couldn't help but sigh.
The grandma she used to be was so kind and amiable, but now she still looks kind, but how much real emotion is contained in her is greatly reduced.
Rights and habits are indeed terrible things.
"Remember."
"Grandma loves you the most at that time."
The old lady sighed: "As you have grown up over the years, do you feel that grandma no longer loves you?"
Wang Lingying didn't answer.
"If the Wang family hadn't been supported by you, it would have declined long ago!"
The old lady's words moved Wang Lingying a little.
This sentence spoke highly of her, and suddenly she felt like crying.
"It's not easy for the Wang family to get to where it is today. Your grandfather handed the Wang family into my hands back then. I couldn't bear to let it decline, and he would not be able to rest in peace under the fire. So these years, I have been walking on thin ice, and the family's internal and external troubles have not affected me.
It's as simple as you see. If I doted on you too much, your uncle and your second uncle would have been in trouble. Only when the family is in harmony can everything be prosperous. You have to understand grandma's difficulties!"
"grandmother!"
Wang Lingying was so moved that she was speechless, and her heart was also very complicated.
The old lady waved her hands and said: "Listen to me, marrying you into the Wei family is a helpless move. I know that I am sacrificing you to help the Wang family, but besides you, who else can I rely on? I rely on you.
Brother or cousin? Do you rely on your uncle or second uncle? None of them are reliable. The Wang family will eventually need us, the female generation, to save it. This is really a great tragedy!"
"The Wei family is over, and I'm relieved. You don't have to marry into the Wei family anymore. But as for Hu Hao, I still hope you will seriously consider it. If you don't want to marry him, grandma won't force you."
"Thank you grandma."
Wang Lingying said quickly.
The old lady said: "But, at present, we have to make use of him, so you have to maintain a good relationship with him. He has been running to me a lot during this time, and I have been pestered by him so much that I can't help it, so
I promised him for you that you go have a meal with him tomorrow night, and he will come to the company to pick you up then. Don’t let Du Qingchen know about it, so as not to cause trouble again!"
Wang Lingying's expression changed, and most of the gratitude he felt just now disappeared.
"I said, we just need to stabilize him first. We must get the project from Hongfei Group. His uncle is the project manager of Hongfei Group and there is no way around it. You can't refuse. I'm begging you!"
The old lady looked pleading.
Wang Lingying was ready to refuse firmly, but seeing the old lady's look, she finally couldn't bear it.
"Okay, but it won't be the same next time. I can't guarantee whether it will succeed. I just want to have a meal with him. I will never use my marriage as a bargaining chip for the family to exchange interests. Grandma, don't blame me. Since I have already fought
Once, you can only choose to fight to the end."
The old lady nodded.
When Wang Lingying returned home, Gao Xiaotong and Du Qingchen were having dinner together.
However, Gao Xiaotong's attitude changed drastically. He no longer had any complaints, he ate deliciously, and he and Du Qingchen were still chatting. It seemed that there was a rare harmony between the two.
"Ling Ying, you're back. Hey, Du Qingchen, give it to your wife. I guess she will like it very much. It's really delicious."
Du Qingchen was ashamed.
This statement can easily be misunderstood.
Wang Lingying shook his head: "No, I'll go upstairs to rest first. I'm a little tired today."
Seeing her going upstairs in despair, Du Qingchen frowned slightly.
Wang Lingying went back to his old house, and something was obviously wrong. He was not in high spirits and was in a low mood.
Gao Xiaotong was not stupid. She also noticed it. She blinked and said, "What's going on?"
"How do I know."
"Can't you care?"
"I can't go up to the second floor, it's my forbidden area."
Gao Xiaotong looked at Du Qingchen with joy: "We just agreed that starting tonight, we will live in peace. As long as you don't irritate me too much, we will definitely get along well and even be friends."
"OK!"
Du Qingchen readily agreed.
"Well, since we are friends, why don't I go up and help you find out what's going on?"
Gao Xiaotong said proudly.
Du Qingchen said: "If she wants to say it, she will definitely say it. If she doesn't want to say it, it will be in vain if she asks."
"It seems right."
…
Beijing.
After listening to Xiao Zhu's report, Nangong Wan'er was silent for a long time.
"Miss, are you okay?" Xiao Zhu asked carefully.
Nangong Wan'er said calmly: "It's okay."
Xiao Zhu added: "I heard that my uncle is about to become a master of the occult."
"Tongxuan?"
Nangong Wan'er said in surprise: "Where did you hear the news?"
"Everyone at home is talking about it, and people outside are also talking about it."
"Stop trying to catch the wind." Nangong Wan'er said, "It's not that easy to break through the Tongxuan realm!"
Xiao Zhu said: "My uncle is a genius."
Nangong Wan'er said unhappily: "Don't mention him in front of me in the future. In addition, you go find a place. I want to meet Zhao Tianba."
"ah?"
Xiao Zhu was a little confused: "What did you do when you saw him? He said a lot of bad things about you outside."
"Didn't you hear me clearly?"
Nangong Wan'er was a little impatient.
Xiao Zhu was so frightened that he stuck out his tongue: "Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."
She murmured in her heart, what's wrong with the lady? She hasn't been out in three years, is she going out this time?
Nangong Wan'er took out her mobile phone. She was using a senior phone from ten years ago. It had few functions other than making calls and sending text messages... Dial a number.
"Who is it? I'm having a great time right now, so don't bother me if you have nothing to do."
"I am Nangong Wan'er."
Zhao Tianba's voice was filled with surprise: "Are you Nangong Wan'er? Humph, what are you doing to me? I'm not familiar with you."
Facing Nangong Wan'er, Zhao Tianba seemed to be much more cautious. Of course, he did not hide his disgust in his tone.
In the past, Zhao Tianba regarded her as a goddess and treated her with great respect, but now, she hated this woman the most.
Nangong Wan'er's voice was indifferent: "Come out and meet me."
"I?"
Zhao Tianba said sarcastically: "Why should I see you? Who do you think you are? I, Zhao Tianba, will not blame others for you. I have nothing to say to you."
"I want to see you."
Nangong Wan'er repeated.
Zhao Tianba's complaints suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong with you?"
"You dare not see me?"
"Tch, why don't I dare to see you anymore? Don't be so self-righteous."
"I'll give you the address later and wait for my information."
After Nangong Wan'er finished speaking, she hung up directly, not giving Zhao Tianba a chance to refuse or be wordy.
