Mother He felt a pang of hurt, but couldn't help but subconsciously defend Cheng Yi: "Don't say that..."
She knew her daughter well; Cheng Yi was definitely not that kind of person.
Qian Lizhen was too lazy to argue with her; she figured she'd said what she wanted to say and that was it.
After seeing Qian Lizhen off, Mother He silently pondered how to tell He Yuan about this matter.
Zhu Rui is her only nephew, and she can't just stand by and watch him become useless.
But her focus was more on Cheng Yi, who hadn't made a single phone call to her since returning to the Cheng family...
Thinking of this, Mother He was unwilling to make any more malicious assumptions about the daughter she had raised, and she couldn't help but shake her head.
Two days later, Mother He finally came up with an explanation and told He Yuan about Zhu Rui's matter.
He Yuan was shocked: "My cousin didn't even finish high school, and my aunt wants him to drop out?"
Mother He then remembered Zhu Rui's age and felt embarrassed: "Look at me, I forgot."
Qian Lizhen was willing to let her child give up their own education so that the child could get ahead in society as soon as possible.
He Yuan, of course, would not agree. He calmly said, "We have to make sure my cousin finishes college. Otherwise, he won't know anything and will only be able to sweep floors if he joins the company."
Moreover, even if he finishes university, if he's not a talented person, he won't let him enter management. At most, he'll be given a sinecure, like watching the warehouse and clearing out inventory.
Don't say he's strict; it's just that the talent sent by the Yan Group is all highly skilled and has a wide range of expertise. He won't be short of people for the next five years.
So, He's mother called Qian Lizhen to convey her opinion.
Qian Lizhen was not happy. She felt that He Yuan must not have contacted He Jing, which was why He Yuan refused. However, the fact that He Yuan did not reject her outright gave her some hope. She also did not do anything foolish like before and offend He's mother.
Mother He said, "Xiao Yuan, could you help me contact Xiao Yi and find a way for me to meet with her? Just one meeting will be enough. I won't take the initiative to contact Xiao Yi again."
He Yuan frowned immediately. He didn't refuse directly, but said, "Xiao Yi is very busy with her studies. Let me see if I can get in touch with her."
Mother He trusted He Yuan and nodded.
Fortunately, she didn't have to wait long for this, because... Cheng Yi came to her door on her own initiative.
She somehow found out the address of the He family's new home and rang the doorbell. The He family thought it was the property management or Qian Lizhen coming to visit.
However, when the door opened, He Sui was stunned.
He Zhou, standing behind He Sui, suddenly frowned.
He Ning sat on the sofa and glanced towards the door, his brows furrowing involuntarily.
Only He Yi was slightly taken aback, while He Chen remained relatively calm.
From the kitchen, Mrs. He asked, "Who's here?"
While turning around and saying "Nobody's here," He Sui frantically gestured for He Zhou to come closer to block his mother's view. Then, he lowered his voice and asked like a thief, "Xiao Yi, what are you doing here?"
Cheng Yi smiled bitterly, but still said lightly, "Don't worry, Fourth Brother, I won't go in. I heard that Mom and Dad are back from their business trip, so I just came to take a look. This is a gift I bought for them. Please accept it, and I'll be leaving now."
He Sui breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
He Jing is in her room right now. If she comes out and sees this, she'll definitely be unhappy.
Cheng Yi handed the gift forward: "Fourth Brother, please accept it. You don't need to mention me to Mom. The driver is still downstairs. I'm leaving now."
P.S.: It's too cold to move. I counted and realized I'm missing three days' worth of updates. I'll make up for it with four updates tomorrow.
