In the president's office of the Ye Group, Xiao Qianqian was still diligently reviewing documents. Now that Ye Bosen's leg had recovered, she planned to hand over the reins after her term ended this year, which had only one month left.
Time really flies. She's been in this position for almost two years now, going from knowing absolutely nothing to handling things with ease.
She was marveling at how quickly time had passed when Zhang Qi knocked on the door and came in.
"President Xiao, Chairman Ye is here. He wants to see you, so I've arranged for him to stay in the meeting room."
"My grandfather?"
"Yes."
Do you know why he wanted to see me?
"He didn't say."
"Okay, then go and inform them that the meeting has been moved to the afternoon."
"Okay, I'll go and inform them right away."
"Um."
Zhang Qi turned around and went out to make the arrangements.
Xiao Qianqian arrived at the reception room and saw that not only Grandpa Ye was there, but Grandma was also there.
"Grandpa, Grandma, what brings you here? You could have just called me if you needed anything. Why did you have to come all this way?"
"Girl, you're here. Did I make it too late for your work?"
"No, no, please sit down, Grandpa, Grandma."
"good."
"Grandpa, Grandma, how are you feeling?"
"Don't worry, we're both in good health."
"That's good. So, Grandpa and Grandma, are you coming today?"
“We came here because of Rongrong’s matter. After you mentioned it last time, we went back and had a family meeting. Your godmother refused to terminate the adoption relationship with her no matter what. We had no choice but to threaten that if the adoption relationship with her was not terminated, we would sever our father-son relationship. In the end, this matter was deadlocked for a long time. Yesterday, your godfather and godmother divorced.”
"Divorced? Just because of this?" Xiao Qianqian's eyes widened.
"Yes, the couple has argued countless times about adoption. No matter what your godmother says, she won't compromise and insists on adoption."
"Grandpa, Grandma, I knew I shouldn't have told you about this. Now look what's happened!" Xiao Qianqian felt very apologetic.
“Girl, don’t blame yourself. Even if you hadn’t said anything, given her personality, she would have only further damaged our reputation. That girl definitely has character issues.”
"However, we did not expect your godmother to be so insistent, preferring divorce to ending the adoption."
Xiao Qianqian paused upon hearing this. She looked at the two elderly people and noticed that they seemed to have a lot more gray hair. It seemed that this troubling matter had indeed caused them a lot of worry.
"Grandpa, Grandma, there's something I'm not sure if I should tell you."
"You silly girl, is there anything you can't say to your grandpa and grandma? Just say it."
"Afterwards, Ah Sen had someone investigate Rongrong and discovered that she was not an orphan. She was her godmother's biological daughter, the child of her and her first love. Her first love abandoned her, and she gave birth to the child. Later, she met her godfather. She thought that she would definitely not be able to marry into a family like yours with a child, so she entrusted the child to a relative to raise. Who knew that this relative would later have an accident, and she had no choice but to take the child back, lying that the child had saved her and that she wanted to adopt her."
The two elderly people were so shocked after hearing this that they were speechless for a long time. After a while, the grandmother slowly spoke: "So that's how it is. No wonder she was so determined."
Grandpa slammed his fist on the table in anger: "Even so, it's wrong to keep it from us for so many years."
Xiao Qianqian quickly comforted him, "Grandpa, calm down."
"If she can give birth, why hasn't she gotten pregnant all these years? And why did she tell us that she has health problems and has been seeking medical treatment for so many years?" Grandma asked疑惑地.
"Yes, that's why we haven't had any grandchildren yet?" Grandpa asked, puzzled.
"..." Xiao Qianqian didn't know how to interrupt.
"Old woman, do you think she was plotting against us from the very beginning?" The old man had been in the business world for decades and had seen all kinds of people. Now that he thought about it, he realized that his family had been tricked from the start.
Grandma also fell silent.
Xiao Qianqian hadn't thought about this question at first, but now that she thought about it, it really was possible. No wonder her godmother had a stern face and looked unhappy when she first met her grandparents. Could it be that she was really afraid that she would compete with them for the inheritance? If that's the case, then she's too scheming.
“Girl, let’s head back now. We need to find your godfather. There are some things we need to clarify; we can’t just let it go like this.”
The old man was also a man with a short temper. The thought that he might have been tricked made him feel uncomfortable, like he was being scratched by a cat.
Grandma stood up too: "Qianqian, your grandpa and I will go back now. This whole thing is so upsetting, it's been going on and on..."
Xiao Qianqian saw the elderly couple to the door and said worriedly, "Grandpa, Grandma, don't get too excited. No matter what the outcome, your health is the most important thing."
After the two elders left, Xiao Qianqian sat alone in the living room, deep in thought. If what she thought was true, then that woman was truly cunning and terrifying, willing to cause the Ye family line to end for the sake of her own child.
With such a scheming mother, it's no wonder that the child she raised has such a distorted personality and such abnormal values.
She took out her phone and called Ye Bosen. The call was answered as soon as it connected.
"Honey, what's wrong? Missing me?"
Xiao Qianqian had no time for teasing him and said directly, "Honey, Grandpa and Grandma came to see me just now. Just as you predicted, my godmother didn't want to break off the adoption. The two of them argued for several days and got divorced yesterday."
Ye Bosen was silent for a few seconds, then his voice lowered: "It was expected. Isn't it better to be separated?"
Xiao Qianqian took a deep breath and said, "You expected this all along?"
Ye Bosen snorted coldly: "With a daughter like that, I believe that woman is no better. It's better to divorce her."
Xiao Qianqian replied, "That makes sense, that's right. The problem is that Grandpa thought of something else at the end. He thinks their family might have been set up by their godmother. It turns out they didn't have children because they always said their godmother had health problems and couldn't have children. But now it seems she has no health problems at all."
Ye Bosen sneered on the other end of the phone: "Just investigate her and you'll find out."
"What are you going to do?" Xiao Qianqian asked, very curious.
"Honey, don't worry about these things, leave them to me."
"Oh well."
"By the way, what about Rongrong? Now that my godmother is divorced, she'll definitely come looking for her."
"They've arrived."
Xiao Qianqian was puzzled when she heard such a nonsensical sentence.
"What's the meaning?"
"She's already at the entrance of our Willow Garden, arguing with the bodyguards about seeing us. I'll go out and check."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, honey."
