Luo Ye was telling a story about Qi Xing and Yue Qin. The old Grandpa was silent for a moment, then gave Luo Ye a pat: "You silly girl, with so many men in the Ye Family, the Wen Family, and the Luo Family, why would they sacrifice you for family interests?"
"Great Grandpa, what I meant is, I definitely wouldn’t foolishly sacrifice myself." Luo Ye defended herself with grievance, "I never said the family wants to sacrifice me. You know my nature, how could you misunderstand me?"
"You rambled on for so long, just to say you wouldn’t make pointless sacrifices. Tell me, how do you want Great Grandpa to understand that?"
"Hehe..." Luo Ye thought for a moment and then laughed sheepishly, "It’s my unclear logic, not Great Grandpa’s fault."
The old Grandpa sighed softly, "Great Grandpa understands Ye’er’s feelings. Ye’er just wants to say that she would never do something that harms a thousand enemies but damages herself by eight hundred just to develop the family, right?
In this regard, Great Grandpa has never been worried. Ye’er is not a naive child, especially after her health condition changed; she wouldn’t do something unreliable.
What Great Grandpa is worried about is not that the Xia Family will affect the development of the others. To put it bluntly, with the power of the Ye Family, Wen Family, and Luo Family, unless they do something outrageously unpopular, no one dares to make small moves; the impact would be fundamental.
Ye’er’s health has not yet returned to its best state. If provoked, she might do something reckless. That’s what Great Grandpa is worried about, understand?"
Luo Ye frowned: "Is my health still that serious?"
The old Grandpa placed his fingers on Luo Ye’s wrist for a moment: "Ye’er, do you often feel restless, as if something is stuck in your chest and won’t go away?"
"Yes, Great Grandpa, how long will this situation last?" Luo Ye’s eyes showed a hint of panic as she asked again, "Will it be a long time?"
"At most twenty days, afterward, it will be pletely normal." The old Grandpa sighed again, "Old Xia probably won’t be able to wait until then."
Luo Ye thought for a moment: "Great Grandpa, the rice from Qi Political missar’s hometown is particularly delicious, but its sales have not been good. Originally, Mr. Qu and I discussed having him send someone to purchase it.
Why don’t I just go? Consider it a break, and I can avoid Chairman Xia. I’ll e back once I’m fully recovered. What do you think?"
"What’s the excuse for your leave? Don’t forget, Ye’er, you’ve bent the rules quite a few times lately."
"Well..." Luo Ye furrowed her brow in distress, "The school side is easier to deal with. After joining Fierce Tiger, as long as I don’t fail any courses, no one will bother me. But what about Director Lei?"
"Old Lei is not the problem. The key is, will Old Xia cause trouble for Old Lei? If Lei Dawei were to be punished, you wouldn’t feel at ease either, right?"
"True, if Director Lei knows about the Xia Family’s affairs, he will definitely let me go, and then he’d suffer resentment or get implicated..." Thinking of this, Luo Ye became even more troubled.
"Silly girl..." The old Grandpa gave her a pat, "Aren’t you planning to join the Female Special Forces Team? Just inform Lei Dawei tomorrow, and afterward, only join Fierce Tiger as a part-timer, then go to select soldiers with Zhu Hongyu. Isn’t that a perfectly legitimate reason?"
Luo Ye responded with a wry smile: "But Sister Zhu has already obtained the internal list, so there’s no need to select anymore."
The old Grandpa reminded: "When trying something for the first time, there can be various adjustments. Given Zhu Hongyu’s position, this isn’t a difficult matter."
"Right!" Luo Ye excitedly patted her head, "Ginger truly gets spicier with age. I’ll call Sister Zhu right now."
"You!" The old Grandpa shook a finger at her, "Is that how you speak to your elders? Alright, I need to rest, go to your room to make the call."
"Yes!" Luo Ye saluted, turned around, and marched out.
"This child!" The old Grandpa chuckled, picked up the phone, dialed two numbers, then hung up, talking to himself, "Forget it, a little exercise isn’t a bad thing."
Ye Xuan happened to walk in and overheard the old Grandpa, then he asked, "Great Grandpa, who are you planning to train?"
"Training all of you youngsters." The old Grandpa chuckled, pointing at a chair, "Ye’er just left, you didn’t run into her?"
"No, that girl probably climbed the wall back again." Ye Xuan shook his head with amusement, "She really knows how to use her strengths."
"I asked her to call Zhu Hongyu, she must be in a hurry..." The old Grandpa recounted the recent conversation with Luo Ye in detail, "Xiao Xuan, you’ve just taken up your post, make sure nothing goes wrong and gives the other side any leverage."
