Chapter 475 Can Have Children

"Grandpa, I think you have the potential to be a tyrant."

Ella joked.

The old man was not angry, and laughed heartily a few times.

Then, the old man said: "Although grandpa believes you, I still want to hear your reasons."

Ella thought for a while and then said, "I don't deny my second cousin's ability. In the Helan family, besides my brother, he is indeed the most capable candidate."

Upon hearing this, the old man nodded, indicating that he still agreed with what she said.

"Go on."

Ella hummed, then continued, "However, his strength doesn't mean he can be the master of the family. He has all the skills, but he lacks a kind heart. When I say kindness, I don't mean being soft-hearted or kind to others, but rather that he can't tolerate even a grain of sand in his eyes, especially when it comes to the Helan family. If he didn't resort to any means to harm his loved ones for the sake of power, I might agree with you handing over the power to him."

The old man listened to her last words, his white brows furrowed. He narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "Girl, what do you want to tell me?"

Although Ella didn't say it explicitly, she knew that the old man must have guessed it.

"Grandpa, it's just what you think," she said.

The old man's brow furrowed even more tightly.

"So, your brother's matter has something to do with him?"

Then, Ella handed the evidence she brought to him.

Five minutes later.

The old man slammed the table in anger again.

But this time, he was obviously more angry and furious.

"Don't be angry, don't be angry, take care of your body." Ella comforted.

The old man looked at her and asked, "Why didn't you find out before?"

"My second cousin hid it very well. Someone even provided him with an alibi, and the perpetrator also insisted that he had hit my brother. So even if my parents and I had doubts at the time, it was difficult to find evidence to disprove them. Another reason was that we didn't want to alert the suspect at the time, fearing that my brother would be hurt a second time."

"But I haven't given up investigating this matter. For the past five years, I've had people secretly investigating. A few days ago, I met Helan Tianyou, and he reminded me. After that, I learned some things from him, which made me even more suspicious of my second cousin. I guess he's eager to take control of HL, so I just gave him a little probing, and he couldn't wait to reveal his true colors. However, the information I gave you is not enough to make him confess. If I expose it now, he will make someone else the scapegoat."

"So the first step now is to stop his proposal to replace the chairman."

The old man sighed heavily, "What a sin!"

Ella touched her nose and said the truth: "It is indeed your fault. If you hadn't married so many wives, this wouldn't have happened."

Old man: “…”

Then, Ella comforted him, "Don't think too much of the bad stuff. There's still hope for this. Just do as I say."

The old man looked at her and said, "Okay, Grandpa will listen to you."

Ella had said everything she needed to say and was ready to leave.

But the old man suddenly asked, "Wait a minute, ask that kid named Ye to take some time to come see me."

He waited so long that the daylily was almost cold.

He thought the boy would come to visit him the next day, but he didn't show up until today.

Ella blinked and asked, "Why did you see him?"

The old man said, "Don't worry about it."

"Then I won't help you make the appointment. You can ask him out yourself." Ella said as she stood up.

"Why are you so petty, kid? Grandpa won't eat him, so what are you afraid of?"

"I'm not afraid you'll eat him, I'm afraid he'll piss you off."

The old man looked at her in confusion and asked, "Why, is he speaking rudely?"

Ella said, "A little bit."

The old man snorted and laughed, "Then I'd like to see him even more."

“…”

Seeing that the old man insisted on seeing her, Ella didn't say anything else.

Just meet her. He has already met her parents, so he doesn’t care about having another old man.

"There's no better day than today. Tonight, invite him to the old house for dinner. It's a good opportunity for you to stay and eat with me."

“…”

Ye Jiuqing had just finished dealing with something when he received her call.

This was the first time in such a long time that he received a call from her.

Ella asked as soon as she opened her mouth: "Where are you now?"

Ye Jiuqing rarely teased her: "Why, did you miss me?"

Ella rolled her eyes. "It's not even dark yet, why are you already dreaming?"

Ye Jiuqing: "...What do you want to talk to me about?"

"Well, the old man wants to see you. If you don't have time, forget it. I'll tell him."

Upon hearing this, Ye Jiuqing immediately replied, "I'm free."

Ella pursed her lips and said, "Okay, then just come to the Helan old house."

"good."

Just as she was about to hang up, the man on the other end of the phone hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, tell me what grandpa likes."

Ella thought about it and realized that the old man didn’t have anything he particularly liked, because he had everything and didn’t need any.

"Whatever, he's not particular about it." She said casually.

Because she really couldn't think of it.

She hasn't given the old man a gift for a long time.

On the old man’s birthday, she would just show up and say a few words of blessing. She was completely different from others. Others would carefully choose gifts, but she would go empty-handed.

In fact, it’s not her fault. It was the old man himself who said it was not necessary.

Then she would be very obedient and not prepare gifts every year.

Besides, the old man didn't say anything, so even if others had opinions, they didn't dare to say anything to her.

“…”

Seven o'clock in the evening.

Ye Jiuqing arrived at Helan's old house.

But he didn't get off the bus.

Ah Gui looked back at him puzzledly and asked, "Master Jiu, what's wrong with you?"

Ye Jiuqing asked, "Why did Mr. Helan suddenly want to see me? Did he want me to help Ella, or did he want us to divorce?"

Ah Gui actually saw confusion and a hint of fear on his face.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime scene.

"Master Jiu, no matter what this old man Helan wants to see you for, I don't think it's a problem. After all, the Madam is the one who really makes the decision, and everyone else is just playing a supporting role. Besides, you've already met the Madam's parents, so why would you be afraid of an old man?"

Ah Gui patiently explained it to him.

Ye Jiuqing looked at him, raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "You have a point. It seems that I have not raised you in vain."

Agui: "..."
