Le Tong could not persuade herself to calmly accept this sudden family connection and imnse wealth.
But the old man in front of her, truly was pitiable!
Le Tong sighed quietly in her heart, and said to the old man slowly, "Let think about it, okay?"
The term "Chairman Yang" that Le Tong intended to use twisted around in her mouth after seeing the old man’s sympathetic eyes, but she couldn’t get it out.
The Old Master opened his mouth, wanting to say sothing to persuade her, but was interrupted by Yang Sheng.
"Grandpa, let Tongtong think it over first, you just need to sign your na."
Yang Sheng opened the newly printed docunt and placed it in front of the Old Master.
The Old Master chanically took the pen and scribbled his na at the end of the docunt.
Just after signing, he heard Le Tong say, "Ji Rui, we’re taking the afternoon flight back."
"Okay." Now Ji Rui was basically unconditionally obedient to Le Tong.
The Old Master wanted to speak to stop them, but Yang Sheng held him by the shoulder.
"Grandpa, keep calm." Yang Sheng whispered in his ear to remind him to hold his composure. So people, the more they’re pushed, the more they resist, and as Yang Sheng understood Le Tong, unfortunately, she was precisely this kind of person.
After this bout over the past day or two, it seed the Old Master had also co to understand this. At present, although he wanted very much to keep his granddaughter for so quality family ti, after several exchanges, he had no choice but to tell Le Tong helplessly, "I’ll have Ah Jing make the arrangents, and this afternoon I and Sheng will take you to the airport."
This ti, Le Tong felt embarrassed to refuse the Old Master’s kind offer, "Alright, thank you!"
She knew now, albeit awkwardly, no matter how excessive this old man had been in the past, it couldn’t change the fact that he was her biological grandfather. Moreover, as he said, he was already at such an age, who knows when he might pass away, she couldn’t heartlessly let the old man die with regret.
So, she proposed to leave, just to give herself a period for calm and transition.
Obviously, Yang Sheng and Ji Rui understood the reason for her decision, and none of them intended to stop her from leaving.
The Old Master knew he couldn’t sway his granddaughter’s decision, so he had to trust Yang Sheng’s words, just give her so ti, let her buffer and think it over.
"You all go out first, I have so matters to discuss with Xiao Zhang and the others."
The Old Master said so, and then Le Tong, Ji Rui, and Yang Sheng stood up and went out.
The three of them walked side by side to the living room, and the mont Baobao saw them, he ran toward them with a smile.
"Mommy, Daddy, Uncle Sheng!"
Yang Sheng stepped forward to pick up Baobao, lightly patting his little bottom. "Call Uncle!"
Baobao looked at Mommy, who acted as if she hadn’t heard anything and gave no directive, then looked at Daddy, who winked at him, prompting Baobao to lean toward Yang Sheng’s ear and softly call, "Uncle..."
"Good boy..." Yang Sheng never expected that he would end up with such a clever and adorable little nephew for no reason.
Ghost Spirit imdiately asked in a whisper, "Is my mommy really Old Master’s biological granddaughter?"
It seed, this little tyke’s separation didn’t interfere with his clever mind from accurately grasping the truth.
"Hmm..." Yang Sheng imitated Baobao’s sneaky look, secretly taking a glance at Le Tong.
It was unclear whether Le Tong genuinely hadn’t heard or was pretending not to hear, as she seed not to have heard the conversation between the two, silently taking the feeding Nuonuo from the nanny and focusing on feeding Nuonuo.
Lurking on Yang Sheng’s shoulder, Baobao whispered a few words in Yang Sheng’s ear, then noticed Old Master walking out from the study, quickly scanning the Old Master’s burdened face with his twinkling eyes.
"Did Mommy have a fight with Great-grandpa?" Though phrased as a question, his tone was certain.
Yang Sheng swore, next ti anything important ca up, he must not discuss it in front of this little prankster. Besides, what exactly is this kid’s brain filled with? His thoughts and logic are absolutely sharper than a normal adult’s!
"I wouldn’t exactly call it a fight..." Yang Sheng really didn’t know how to define the entanglent between grandpa and Le Tong.
"Oh... My mommy is mad, right?"
The little guy tilted his head, looking as if he understood everything.
No wonder he ca to such a conclusion; yesterday, nothing Le Tong and the Old Master said in the pavilion was ant to be concealed from Baobao. Baobao heard everything without missing a word, analyzed it carefully, and coupled with his understanding of his mommy, it was not hard to draw the above conjecture.
The precocious child in front of him left Yang Sheng at a loss for words.
"Probably..." Such a matter, which was a stressful dilemma for grown n like him and Ji Rui, he didn’t see the necessity for a child like Baobao, in his innocent and lively stage, to know.
However, this little nephew of his, while indeed innocent and lively, also possessed more tricks and cleverness compared to peers of the sa age.
Yet, this issue that was an extrely tricky dilemma for Yang Sheng and Ji Rui, to Baobao, seed like a piece of cake.
"Aye, really awkward..."
The little guy’s comnt, unsure who it was directed at, imdiately made a black line appear on Yang Sheng’s forehead.
After lanting, Baobao struggled down from Yang Sheng’s hold and toddled toward the Old Master.
The Old Master had been brooding over his concern when he heard footsteps. Looking up, he saw Baobao, and his old troubled face imdiately lit up with a smile.
"Baobao!"
The little lad approached, hugging the Old Master’s leg, smilingly tilting his head up to the Old Master, winking, and then raising his soft little finger, beckoning to the Old Master.
The Old Master, childishly indulged, bent down accompanying the little one, and mysteriously asked in a whisper, "What is it, Little Treasure?"
Baobao giggled a few tis, then clearly and crisply shouted, "Hello, Great-grandpa!"
Though not loud, Baobao’s voice was clear enough for the Old Master to hear distinctly.
The Old Master’s body trembled, then with a slightly shaking voice, responded, "Oh... Good boy, Baobao!"
Speaking of great-grandchildren, the Old Master already had several, the oldest being twelve or thirteen. Yet none of them seed to please him as much as Baobao did, the more he looked at him, the more precious he beca.
Those great-grandchildren were all debt collectors like their parents.
Unlike Baobao, not only was he handso and cute, but he also had a heart as clear as crystal.
"Great-grandpa..." Baobao reached out his tender little hand, touching the Old Master’s wrinkled face. Perhaps, children have an instinctual sense of kinship, from the very beginning of eting this old man, Baobao felt an inexplicable closeness to him.
