Really now.
“Grandfather Wu, hello.”
“Hello, Tang Su, it’s true what they say: hearing about you a hundred times can’t compare to seeing you just once. Today, I finally get to meet you, and now I know my grandson has quite the eye for people—he hasn’t done badly at all.”
“…Grandfather Wu, you’re too kind. Would you like some coffee? Wu Jie’s coffee is exceptional.”
The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
“Yes, this lad is talented by nature, he learns everything quickly. However, I’m old now, I don’t drink coffee anymore, plain water will do.”
“All right.”
No sooner had Tang Su spoken than Ruan Mei went to get a cup of warm water for him.
“Grandfather Wu, please have some water,” Ruan Mei said.
“All right, thank you, miss.”
“You’re welcome.”
“I didn’t mean to come over so suddenly; am I disturbing your work? Actually, I’ve been in Hua City for two days, and I’ve been wanting to come over and see who Tang Su is, but that lad Ajie just wouldn’t let me.”
“I only just realized it too; this lad is kind of odd—but maybe Grandfather Wu is just too good, so he’s been hiding you all along, probably afraid that we’ll steal his grandfather from him.”
Feeling the goodwill from Wu Donglin made Tang Su more talkative and her choice of words livelier.
“Hahaha, you really know how to make an old man happy, no wonder you managed to open up this wooden-headed guy. Miss, does our Ajie really stand no chance at all?”
“Do you like that man more than our Ajie?”
“Grandfather—” Wu Jie was fuming, his own matters were his to handle; why did this old man have to meddle so pointlessly?
Had he forgotten their agreement?
“Grandfather Wu, I’m sorry, the person I like might not necessarily be better than Wu Jie, but in my eyes, he’s irreplaceable. I’m sorry to disappoint you.”
“I see. Actually, I came to Hua City this time with three things in mind. The first one is to bring Wu Jie back home, so he’s not acting out of spite because his confession was unsuccessful, do you understand? My dear—”
“Mhm, I don’t think so.”
“That’s good. Grandfather Wu thanks you for when he was being willful and reckless, you were there to dissuade him. You’re a good boss who takes good care of your employees, and for a young lady to have this kind of broad-mindedness is not easy.”
“However, Grandfather Wu has something else to tell you. In this society we live in, it’s not good to meet violence with violence, but there are times when it’s necessary. Some scumbags and shrews deserve a beating.”
“Communication is a tactic for those who speak with civility and morality, but for some people who lack these qualities, continual persuasion is ineffective.”
“On the surface, Wu Jie hitting someone is wrong, but once you understand why, I, as his grandfather, will take responsibility for the consequences. Tang Su, rest assured, some people are just filthy through and through, and this matter won’t blow up.”
Tang Su: “…”
Only then did Tang Su realize that Wu Jie had such a reliable backing.
If everyone were as understanding as Wu Jie’s grandfather, wouldn’t their society have fewer extremes?
Teach according to the student’s ability, vary the approach according to the individual—in any case, issues shouldn’t be approached with a one-size-fits-all solution.
Because the consequences of hitting someone are severe, it allows those with venomous tongues to humiliate others freely, secure in the belief that their victims won’t, and don’t dare, strike back.
“Okay, then I won’t get involved in this matter,” Tang Su promised.
“How about we all have a simple dinner tonight? Everyone should come; I want to properly thank you all. You are Ajie’s good friends, good partners, and I can tell he’s happy working here with you.”
Everyone agreed, thinking that since Wu Jie wouldn’t be staying much longer, they were bound to have a farewell dinner sooner or later.
They might as well do it in advance.
**
At 5 p.m., Hua City Airport.
Lu Han, dressed in a white shirt, black trousers, and sporting Xiaobai sneakers, walked out dragging his suitcase.
He had come back ahead of schedule; he simply couldn’t wait until tomorrow.
Two days, forty-eight hours without seeing Tang Su, and he was anxious.
Especially after hearing that girl reject someone else, saying she had someone she liked, Lu Han wished he could have flown back that very day.
Luckily, he’s now a man pushing thirty, not the impulsive teenager he once was.
He held back and stayed, first going to see his mentor to discuss his personal matters.
He also proactively reported that Tang Su was Su Ruoan’s daughter.
Lu Han was his mentor’s favored student, and whether Tang Su was the mentor’s niece or granddaughter, he promised to help Lu Han win her over.
Lu Han was profoundly grateful, but he had a request: he didn’t need his mentor to pressure Su Ruoan with a phone call; he just needed his mentor’s cooperation.
His mentor, of course, knew that Su Ruoan was about to become his daughter-in-law’s mother. How could Lu Han afford to offend her?
As long as Lu Han was willing to marry and his choice was a girl, his mentor felt relieved. He told Lu Han to dictate how he would like the cooperation to be.
Therefore, with everything ready but the right moment, Lu Han returned ahead of schedule.
He didn’t notify Tang Su; surprising her was one of his goals. Another reason was that he wanted to visit Tang Su’s parents alone and make his intentions clear.
To assure them that he would cherish Tang Su if they entrusted her to him.
After getting in the car, Lu Han provided the address of the staff quarters building at Hua City Central Hospital, then sent a message home to report his safe arrival.
On the other side, Lu Maoyan was angry because Lu Han had left early. He had wanted to show off his son a bit, to let those old fogeys see that their father-son relationship was solid and they didn’t need to worry unnecessarily.
But Lu Han had run off.
“Alright, alright, don’t be angry. Our son said he’s arrived safely and not to worry,” she placated.
“Hmph, I couldn’t care less about him.” Lu Maoyan was glaring furiously.
In his life, no one had dared to infuriate him like this.
Lu Han was the only exception in this world.
So infuriating…
