Chapter 785: Chapter 785: How Reasonable and Justified!
Chi Yue couldn’t help but laugh, "This isn’t a major criminal case, she won’t be locked up for life."
"Then let her stay in there for ten or eight years, she’ll come out an old woman, let’s see how she can be arrogant then!"
Chi Yue nodded, although she said that, putting it into practice was easier said than done.
After eating, they planned to go shopping but received a call from Chi Jianshan saying that visitors had arrived at home and asked her to come back.
Chi Yue reluctantly said, "Shopping will have to wait, there’s something at home."
"Who came? Should I drive you back? Never mind, I’ll accompany you back home."
Before Chi Yue could refuse, Nan Bingyu pulled her along.
Given that Zhan Youyou had an incident today, it was feared that the visitors were from the Zhan Family.
But upon arriving home, Chi Yue discovered that the visitors weren’t from the Zhan Family but from the Qi family.
Mr. Qi sat on the sofa, his presence commanding without anger.
Chi Jianshan sat beside him, holding Fu Mianmian, not skimping on the hospitality, but he just wouldn’t speak to Mr. Qi, focusing solely on making Fu Mianmian happy.
Seeing Chi Yue and Nan Bingyu enter, he took Fu Mianmian to the backyard.
"You’re finally back!" Mr. Qi said with a stern look in his eyes, "I thought you didn’t care about your grandfather at all!"
Chi Yue pulled Nan Bingyu to sit down and slowly poured him a cup of tea, pushing it towards him, "Sorry, I don’t even have a dad, how could I suddenly have a grandfather?"
Mr. Qi said sternly, "As long as you don’t divorce Ah Zhou, I am your grandfather."
Mr. Qi had previously had a favorable impression of Chi Yue, but as she increasingly ignored him, his attitude towards her worsened.
He came today because of the incident with Zhan Youyou, but also to intimidate Chi Yue.
But Chi Yue didn’t argue with him, instead obediently responding, "Okay, Grandfather, I’ll remember that."
Not only was Mr. Qi shocked, but Nan Bingyu was also frightened by her response.
Yet Chi Yue’s expression didn’t change, "You say, I’m listening."
Seeing Chi Yue’s 180-degree attitude shift, Mr. Qi scrutinized her with an inquisitive gaze but couldn’t find any clues.
So, he began to state his purpose, "I heard that you sent the Zhan family girl to the police station today? It’s such a minor issue, you could have just told the police it was a misunderstanding, and sent her back to the Zhan Family to be disciplined by her elders."
Chi Yue’s face remained impassive, "Since you’ve heard about this matter, then you should know that she entered my home without so much as a greeting and arrogantly told me to get lost. Is this how a guest behaves in someone else’s home?"
"But you shouldn’t have sent her to the police station! She is engaged to Ah Zhou, living in his house is perfectly logical!"
"Perfectly logical, huh? But perhaps you are not aware, that apartment is in my name. If she was going to stay there, shouldn’t she have at least told me? Do girls from the great Beijing families not even understand basic courtesy? Also, you just said that as long as I’m not divorced, you are my grandfather, then why do you acknowledge Miss Zhan and Ah Yin’s marriage? Isn’t that making things difficult for me, Grandpa?"
Chi Yue spoke at a steady pace, her reasoning clear, and Nan Bingyu almost jumped up to clap and cheer for her!
This old man really, perhaps befuddled by age, contradicting himself, yet he’s a senior of the Qi family!
Nan Bingyu wanted to cheer, but Mr. Qi was so angry he couldn’t speak, especially since those were his own words, leaving his old face red with frustration.
