Chapter 177: A Rich Grandpa Appears
When he returned to the company he had left for a few days, Xu Tao felt very friendly, saying hello to several employees and joking, as if he had returned to his own home.
Liu Ruishen whispered to Xu Tao in a mysterious and low voice: "Manager Xu, you haven't been here these two days, Manager Ye seems to have lost his soul."
"Oh?" Xu Tao looked at Liu Rui in confusion. He knew Ye Yunzhu very well. Not to mention that the relationship between the two has not reached that level, even if they have truly reached that level, Ye Yunzhu would not lose his soul for him to leave for a few days.
"Really!" Liu Rui saw that Xu Tao didn't believe it, and immediately nodded heavily and said, "Manager Ye usually comes to the company early this time. Even if he doesn't come, he will definitely call me, but he doesn't call me these two days. He is listless when he comes. Even when we talk to her, she will be distracted for a long time without any reaction."
Xu Tao frowned. Although Liu Rui, a little girl, usually gossips, she will not make any mistakes out of nothing. Ye Yunzhu is obviously doing this, and what problem can make her perform like this?
"Manager Ye is here, you might as well ask her yourself." Liu Rui said softly, then twisted back to his position and started working seriously.
Xu Tao was about to say hello to Ye Yunzhu, but Ye Yunzhu actually lowered her head and walked in directly without even looking at him.
This made Xu Tao feel even more inappropriate, so he immediately followed in.
Ye Yunzhu sat behind the desk, touching her chin with one hand, her eyelids drooped, her brows frowned, and she looked worried, but she didn't notice Xu Tao coming in. It was not until Xu Tao gently knocked on the table that Ye Yunzhu raised her head. When she saw Xu Tao, she immediately looked surprised and said, "Ah! Xu Tao. You are back!"
Xu Tao sat opposite her and whispered: "What happened?"
"I...I'm fine." Ye Yunzhu avoided Xu Tao's gaze and lifted her hair with one hand to hide the panic in her heart.
"Can't you tell me?" Xu Tao stared at Ye Yunzhu's eyes and asked slowly.
Ye Yunzhu looked at Xu Tao's eyes, and her eyes suddenly turned red, and tears were also full of tears.
"What's wrong?" Xu Tao suddenly panicked and hurriedly walked around and supported Ye Yunzhu's shoulder. Ye Yunzhu was a very strong girl. That time he was chased by Xiao Yu. He only cried when his parents had an accident. Even if she encountered a difficult situation, she would never shed tears.
"Xu Tao..." Ye Yunzhu suddenly hugged Xu Tao's waist and buried her head in Xu Tao's lower abdomen and started crying softly.
"Don't cry. Tell me if you have something to do. I can definitely help you solve it." Xu Tao patted Ye Yunzhu's shoulder gently. His voice was gentle, but he was extremely firm.
Ye Yunzhu sobbed a few more times again. She raised her head and shook it gently. She said, "You can't help me in this."
"Can you tell me what that is?" Xu Tao couldn't help but frown. He was not able to do anything, but he was definitely much more than ordinary people.
Ye Yunzhu slowly stopped crying, took a tissue and wiped her eyes twice, and then said softly: "Xu Tao, I... my father is not... not my biological father."
"Ah?" Xu Tao was stunned for a moment, and smiled bitterly in his heart. It was really hard to help with this matter, so he hesitated for a moment. "What the hell is going on?"
Ye Yunzhu said the matter aggrievedly.
"The day after you went to Chenshi, the old man we met on that business trip came to the door. My mother's face changed drastically when she saw her. The old man was also very excited and stared at me. I didn't understand why. When I was about to ask what was going on, my mother actually drove me back to the room and prevented me from listening to what they said. But I still lay on the door and heard that my mother... My mother turned out to be the lover of the old man's former son."
"Ah..." Xu Tao screamed in a low voice, feeling that this was really incredible.
"And my mom...my mother had already given birth to me before marrying my dad, so my dad is my biological father...Woo..." Ye Yunzhu couldn't help but lean on Xu Tao and cried softly.
The person who called him father for more than 20 years was suddenly not his biological father, which was not so easy for anyone to accept. Xu Tao could fully understand Ye Yunzhu's mood at this time, but there was obviously still some information about this matter. After Ye Yunzhu cried a little, he asked again: "What are they saying next."
"The old man kept saying sorry to my mother. It turned out that my mother and I... were the biological father who asked him to break up. At that time, my mother's family was poor, so he looked down on my mother. And my mother also gave birth to me secretly, and no one knew."
"Later, my biological father left my mother, and later died in a car accident. My mother met my father, and my father married my mother. In order to be afraid that my life would have a shadow since I was a child, they came here without telling me the truth." Ye Yunzhu said that his biological father had no feeling of grief when he died. Even if his biological father was still alive and had never seen him before, it would be difficult to make Ye Yunzhu feel close, let alone dead...
"What's the purpose of that old man coming this time?"
"He...he wanted to pick me up to him. He said I was the flesh and blood of their Cui family and was going to go back to the Cui family. He only had one son, and now he had no one to inherit his large amount of property and his health was not as good as before. He wanted me to help him go back to take charge of his company and give up his inheritance. My parents did not strongly object to me and wanted me to make a decision by myself."
"What do you think?"
"I...I don't go, I don't know him...my dad has raised me for more than 20 years. Even if he is not my biological father, he is my dad. I will not leave them."
Xu Tao felt that this was like a Taiwanese TV series, but it really happened to him, and it happened to Ye Yunzhu. No wonder he didn't see a photo of Ye Yunzhu before he was one year old when he went to Ye Yunzhu's house last time. It turned out that they were not the same family at all. He lit a cigarette, and Xu Tao smiled faintly and said, "That's it. Since you have made a decision in your heart, why bother about this? One more relative may not be a bad thing. And now you have become a rich sister all at once. How many people want to envy you?"
"It's just... I always feel uncomfortable. This relative came too suddenly, and... it also created a kind of diaphragm between me and my dad."
"Why do you feel this way?" Xu Tao was puzzled.
"I don't know very well. Maybe my biological father has become an adoptive father, so my father and I... can't accept it."
Ye Yunzhu told Xu Tao about the things that had been under my heart for several days. She felt better. She laughed for a while and said, "Forget it, I don't want that much anymore. I just like my current life. I can be with my parents, and I can make the company bigger with my colleagues, and I can... be with you."
Perhaps this is the reason Ye Yunzhu insisted on leaving. Xu Tao smiled faintly and said, "I respect your choice, but don't worry, I don't care about my friend who has a rich sister."
Xu Tao cannot comment on this matter. A person always has her own ideas. Whether Ye Yunzhu accepts that grandpa or not, it is all her own decision. Xu Tao can interfere, and she will not interfere with her.
Ye Yunzhu was originally looking forward to Xu Tao being able to say a touching love word or just giving her a promise implicitly, but Xu Tao just told her this, which made her feel a little disappointed. She shook her head gently and said, "Okay, I don't think about this for the time being. There are some problems with the raw materials in the factory. Mr. Guo asked our company to be responsible for purchasing raw materials now. Can you accompany me?"
Xu Tao pondered for a moment and said, "Let Chen Yifan and the others go for a while. As managers, we can't do it ourselves. We have done it all, and they have nothing to do, so wouldn't they lose their enthusiasm?"
Ye Yunzhu was disappointed again, nodded gently, and said, "Okay, I'll arrange for Chen Yifan and He Tong to go."
"Well, just be happier. This may not be a bad thing. I'll go out in advance." After Xu Tao said that, he patted Ye Yunzhu on the shoulder and walked out.
Ye Yunzhu looked at Xu Tao's back for a long time and moved, but the expression on her face became more lonely.
Xu Tao could fully feel Ye Yunzhu's affection for him, but now he really can't accept Ye Yunzhu. Accepting her means being dedicated to her. Is he a dedicated person? The answer is no, perhaps yes, because in Xu Tao's heart, he can never forget a woman.
"What's wrong with Mr. Ye?" Chen Yifan kept looking at the suite. When he saw Xu Tao coming out, he quickly asked in a low voice. It was not that he couldn't see how good Ye Yunzhu was to Xu Tao, but he also realized that Xu Tao had never accepted Ye Yunzhu, so he always thought that he still had a chance and did not have much hostility towards Xu Tao. At this time, he wanted to get some news from Ye Yunzhu from Xu Tao to comfort her.
"It's nothing, I'm just worried about the company, but I've decided for her that you will go on a business trip with He Tong to purchase raw materials tomorrow."
"That's great! You can go on a business trip." He Tong suddenly shouted excitedly. The newly started working people always had a sense of curiosity and expectation about business trips.
