Soon, Xu Hongmei learned that Ye Linchen's parents were ordinary workers in a steel factory and their family did not seem to be well-off.
Ye Linchen's cousin, Meng Zihan, was also detained in a detention center because of Zhang Tingting...
Upon hearing this, Xu Hongmei immediately had an idea.
Go straight to the Ye family and pave the way with money.
There is no problem in this world that money can't solve.
One stack of money isn't enough? Just add another stack!
She's encountered this kind of thing many times, but in the past, she didn't need to take action; someone else would naturally handle it for her.
Things are different now, and Ye Linchen really has some skills, so she has no choice but to humble herself and make the trip herself.
That noon, the steel mill's residential area was quiet, as most families had finished their lunch and were taking a nap.
Ye Zhenghua and the twins also finished lunch and took a nap in their respective rooms.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Meng Xueyun rushed to Jiangcheng University to find Ye Linchen.
"Knock knock knock!"
There was a sudden knock on the Ye family's door.
Ye Zhenghua thought it was Meng Xueyun who had returned, so he turned over impatiently and muttered something.
"Didn't I bring the key? Can't you open it yourself?"
But the knocking didn't stop; it started again.
Calm and composed, yet resolute.
Clearly, they wouldn't give up until they got through.
Ye Zhenghua had no choice but to get out of bed, slip on his slippers, and walk to the door.
"Where are your keys? Didn't you bring them with you?"
The door opened, and standing outside was not Meng Xueyun, but a stylishly dressed middle-aged woman.
Although the woman's face was full of smiles, she gave off an air of arrogance and superiority.
Ye Zhenghua felt uneasy and gestured with his chin at her: "Who are you looking for?"
"Excuse me, are you Comrade Ye Zhenghua?"
Looking for me?
Ye Zhenghua looked at her with a puzzled expression, wondering to himself.
This woman looks very rich, but I don't know her.
"Who are you?"
"Comrade Ye, hello, I am Zhang Tingting's mother, my name is Xu Hongmei."
Xu Hongmei warmly extended her hand, wanting to shake hands with Ye Zhenghua.
Ye Zhenghua was taken aback.
Zhang Tingting?
Isn't that the big tree from the capital?
Meng Zihan was able to get into the detention center thanks to her.
If Xu Hongmei is her mother, then isn't that an even bigger tree?
Are they trying to target our family again?
Although Ye Zhenghua was wary, his hands reached out uncontrollably and tightly grasped Xu Hongmei's hands.
"Comrade Xu, hello, hello, please come in and have a seat."
Xu Hongmei walked into the Ye family's house with a reserved demeanor, looking around and her brows furrowing involuntarily.
This house is too dilapidated; it can't compare to her home in the capital at all.
"Comrade Ye, I'm so sorry to have disturbed your lunch break," Xu Hongmei said politely.
"It's nothing, Comrade Xu, you're too kind."
Ye Zhenghua quickly waved his hand and warmly invited her to sit down on the sofa.
Xu Hongmei glanced at the worn-out sofa, hesitated for a moment, and then sat down.
Only a tiny bit of his butt touched the sofa.
Ye Zhenghua eagerly offered to make tea for Xu Hongmei, but Xu Hongmei raised her hand to stop him.
"Comrade Ye, no need to bother. I have something I'd like to discuss with you. Please sit down."
Ye Zhenghua immediately stopped and sat obediently on the single sofa next to him, but he was a little puzzled as to what this noblewoman wanted with him.
Judging from her friendly demeanor, she doesn't seem like she intends to harm them.
Xu Hongmei immediately answered his question.
She didn't beat around the bush and stated her purpose directly.
"Comrade Ye, I know my daughter Tingting is immature and had some unpleasantness with your daughter Ye Linchen, which upset her. I'm here today specifically to apologize on Tingting's behalf."
Ye Zhenghua's mouth dropped open.
He knew that Ye Linchen and Zhang Tingting were having a conflict, and that's why Meng Zihan went to help Zhang Tingting, which ended up landing himself in the police station.
Ye Linchen, on the other hand, was unharmed and continued her university studies with boundless energy.
At the time, he felt that Ye Linchen's skills had improved and he should not be underestimated, but he was also afraid of offending a powerful figure in Beijing, which would bring trouble to his family.
Unexpectedly, this lady has now taken the initiative to apologize!
He was about to politely say that it was no problem when he saw Xu Hongmei lower her head, open her handbag, take out a bulging file bag, and place it on the coffee table.
"Comrade Ye, here is 20,000 yuan. It's a small token of my appreciation. Please accept it."
Ye Zhenghua's eyes widened when he saw the file folder.
Twenty thousand yuan!
This is no small sum!
How much does he earn in a month?
How many years would it take to save up this much!
His eyes were glued to the file folder, unable to look away, while his hands waved wildly.
"I can't accept this money, I can't accept it..."
Xu Hongmei took in Ye Zhenghua's reaction and secretly chuckled to herself.
It seems this trip wasn't in vain; things are already halfway done.
"Comrade Ye, please don't stand on ceremony with me. I know that Tingting was indeed in the wrong in the conflict between Ye Linchen and Tingting, but this is a conflict between children and should not involve two families. Reporting it to higher authorities is even more inappropriate."
"I came here today specifically to apologize to my daughter, and I hope you can persuade Ye Linchen to forgive her."
Ye Zhenghua was completely confused.
What report?
What are you reporting?
Instead of offering him helpful advice this time, Xu Hongmei continued, "If you can persuade Ye Linchen to withdraw his report, I guarantee that your niece Meng Zihan will be released without charge immediately, and I can even arrange a better job for her."
She paused briefly, then offered an even greater temptation, "I can also make you the deputy director of the steel mill!"
