Jiang Ranran learned from Gu Tingchen that the previous generations of the Gu and Lin families disliked each other. Later, the Lin family went abroad, and the relationship between the two companies became relatively eased.
Although she knew all this, Jiang Ranran still felt it was a pity. Although it was a grudge between the previous generation, wouldn't it be a good thing if it could be resolved here?
Moreover, Jiang Ranran and the old man had made a big promise before, and Jiang Ranran was unwilling to give up just like that.
So Jiang Ranran used the excuse of discussing cooperation to ask the old man out.
Jiang Ranran then said to Lin Qianya, "Tonight, please accompany me to meet a partner. We've already agreed on this, but he's also your biggest fan and he said he absolutely has to meet you."
Jiang Ranran never hesitates when telling lies.
Lin Qianya was in the lab. She looked up at Jiang Ranran and said with a smile, "Why are you my fans again? I find that our company has too many fans. You can't always cooperate with people like this, otherwise it will delay your work."
Jiang Ranran waved his hand and smiled awkwardly, "So are you going with me or not? I've been talking to this partner for quite a while, so please give me some face."
In order to trick Lin Qianya into the restaurant, Jiang Ranran put a lot of thought into it.
After finishing the work at hand, Lin Qianya said, "Sure, I get off work early today, I'll go with you later."
Seeing Lin Qianya agree, Jiang Ranran breathed a sigh of relief.
When the time came, Jiang Ranran brought Lin Qianya to the old man. He had thought that the two of them could have a few words with each other, but when Lin Qianya saw the old man, her face changed immediately.
"Is he the person you said you would take me to meet?" Lin Qianya said in a cold tone.
The old man was a little embarrassed when he saw the visitor, but he just sat there quietly, holding his coffee.
"I was thinking of asking you to talk things out with the old man to see if there is any misunderstanding about what happened back then." Jiang Ranran felt a little guilty looking at the slightly angry Lin Qianya.
It seems that she messed up.
Lin Qianya didn't even look at the old man, but said angrily: "This matter has nothing to do with me. I always listen to the elders in my family. Since there are no customers, I don't need to eat."
Having said that, Lin Qianya angrily left the restaurant with her bag.
It can be seen that Lin Qianya was really angry, otherwise she would not have picked up her bag and left without caring about Jiang Ranran's face.
The old man then said, "So your partner is her."
With his back to the old man, Jiang Ranran sat in the restaurant, feeling somewhat discouraged. After a long while, he spoke apologetically, "I'm sorry, Grandpa. I was hoping to ease the relationship between you two, but it seems I was too naive."
Jiang Ranran didn't know the details of what happened back then. She just thought that there might be some misunderstanding between the two of them, which was why things became so awkward.
Otherwise, Grandpa and Lin Qianya are such good people, how could they not get along?
The old man didn't care much and just sighed, "Forget it, kid. I know you mean well, but the grudge between us and the Lin family is not just one or two days old. It can't be settled in a moment."
As he spoke later, Grandpa seemed to feel a little regretful.
After Lin Qianya left, Jiang Ranran and his grandfather had no appetite for food, so the meal naturally ended on a bad note.
But in the evening, Grandpa noticed Jiang Ranran's dilemma and took the initiative to say to Jiang Ranran: "Don't take what I told you about cooperation at that time to heart. In fact, I was just joking. The company has had some unexpected events recently. Let's wait for cooperation later."
Jiang Ranran knew that her grandfather had good intentions, and she felt even more guilty.
She was wrong in this matter. She thought things were too simple, which made things so complicated afterwards.
"Thank you so much, Grandpa." Jiang Ranran expressed his gratitude sincerely.
Jiang Ranran knew that Lin Qianya was angry. After thinking about it, she took the initiative to apologize to Lin Qianya.
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect the feud between your two families to be so deep. If I had known earlier, I would never have let you meet." Jiang Ranran said, holding Lin Qianya's hand.
It seemed that Lin Qianya was still angry, but she was just doing experiments quietly and ignored Jiang Ranran.
The more this happened, the more guilty Jiang Ranran felt, and the guilt in her heart lingered for a long time.
"I know you don't want to cooperate with Gu's. Grandpa also told me that our two companies will no longer cooperate. Can you forgive me?" Jiang Ranran apologized again.
Jiang Ranran is not someone who likes to make things difficult for others, and he also knows that everyone has their own ideas. If Jiang Ranran had known earlier that the feud between the two families was so deep, Jiang Ranran would not have acted as the middleman.
Now Jiang Ranran is also full of guilt and just wants Lin Qianya to forgive him.
After a long while, Lin Qianya finally sighed, somewhat helplessly, "Why do you always mean well but end up doing something bad?"
Although there was still a hint of anger in these words, it was obvious that Lin Qianya had calmed down.
Jiang Ranran immediately smiled and said, "I know I was wrong. Next time I'll treat you to a meal as an apology."
Although the two of them had not known each other for a long time, they spent every day together. Jiang Ranran felt that his relationship with Lin Qianya was better than any of his previous good friends.
Although Lin Qianya is not talkative, she and Jiang Ranran have many common topics, and the two can always chat together.
Jiang Ranran cherishes this friend very much.
"Okay, as you said, you can arrange it then." Lin Qianya pushed Jiang Ranran's head with her finger.
Although Jiang Ranran was still curious about what happened back then, she didn't ask. The relationship between the two families was so tense, and she wasn't so tactless as to do so.
Just as Jiang Ranran was about to leave, Lin Qianya suddenly said to Jiang Ranran, "Actually, I've heard of Mr. Gu's reputation in the industry, and I know he's a respectable man, but there are many things I can't decide."
This was the first time Lin Qianya spoke to Jiang Ranran with a helpless tone.
For a long time, Lin Qianya’s image in Jiang Ranran’s mind has been that of an omnipotent person, as if she knows everything and can do everything.
But Jiang Ranran ignored the fact that even though Lin Qianya was so powerful, she still had to obey her family's arrangements. You know, in a family as big as theirs, if any problems occurred, the entire family would be implicated.
The Lin family and the Gu family have always been at odds. If Lin Qianya ignores this and directly cooperates with the Gu family, it will be a big blow to the Lin family.
Those people in the Lin family would not agree, and Lin Qianya was unwilling to offend her family because of a partner.
Jiang Ranran suddenly understood.
