Chapter 1365 Asking for a Favor
Elder Nie did not answer her directly, but asked thoughtfully: "Ayao, did your father say something to you?"
"Well, he said something..." Nie Yao answered vaguely. She didn't know how to tell her grandfather what her father said!
"Although I retired a long time ago and no longer have anything to do with the family business, if there's any big news, I still can't hide it from my ears!"
Elder Nie sighed and said in a quiet voice, "Ayao, I know that the Nie family's project was eventually won by Li Jinxing!"
"Grandpa..." Nie Yao felt a little guilty when he heard his grandfather say that. He said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Grandpa. I don't know why it turned out like this. I..."
Before she could finish, Elder Nie interrupted her with a smile and turned around to comfort her, "Ayao, you don't have to apologize to Grandpa! You've been busy with archaeology and haven't been involved in these business matters, so it's not surprising that you didn't know about it. I also know that even if Li Jinxing did it on purpose, he wouldn't have informed you in advance..."
He actually guessed that even if Li Jinxing really wanted to snatch this project from the Nie family, he would not tell Nie Yao!
"Grandpa, I'm sorry..." Nie Yao felt even more guilty when she saw that her grandfather didn't blame her or call to question her.
"I also vaguely heard that this project is very important to the Nie family, so Dad is also very angry. I apologize to you and Dad on behalf of Li Jinxing. In fact, after I found out about this, I also had a quarrel with him..."
Hearing this, Elder Nie shook his head and sighed softly, then smiled and said, "Ayao, this has already happened. It's an established fact, and we can't say anything more. After all, in the business world, one must accept defeat. Besides, the Nie family can't compete with Li Jinxing..."
At this point, he changed the subject and continued, "Ayao, Grandpa called you today to ask for a favor!"
Nie Yao was stunned for a moment, a huge guess coming to mind. She asked cautiously, "Grandpa, who are you trying to ask for a favor for?"
"Ayao, grandpa wants to ask for a favor on behalf of your second uncle!"
Elder Nie didn't want to hide it anymore and spoke directly, "I know those rumors on the internet are all the rage. You're unhappy and have doubts... But a lot of things happened twenty years ago, and he knows he was wrong. The Nie family is in turmoil right now. If problems arise within, it will only give outsiders more opportunities!"
He was very careful with his words, for fear of angering Nie Yao.
Although Nie Yao had prepared herself mentally, her heart sank when she heard her grandfather say that.
In fact, Li Jinxing had already warned her before, and she could understand her grandfather's feelings, but after hearing it with her own ears, she felt very upset!
"Grandpa, even though it happened twenty years ago, some people have never taken any responsibility or blame!"
Nie Yao smiled bitterly and shook her head, then said in a deep voice, word by word, "It's true that I'm back, but the people and things I lost can't be made up for!"
"Yaoyao, the dead cannot be resurrected, and it is not necessarily him who did this..." Old Nie tried to persuade.
But Nie Yao interrupted his grandfather and replied with a sneer, "Yes, my mother can't come back, and my grandfather can't come back either, and yet he's lived a carefree life for twenty years! Regardless of whether he is the one responsible or not, the law will ultimately bring justice to the matter!"
