Chapter 366: Cheng Zhimin's Apology

reholders.Zuo Yu'an refused without hesitation: "This project has already had a preliminary intention to cooperate with Lu, the head of Whale Finance. We don't need to introduce two capitals.""What ab...She had countless things to deal with. First, she needed to maintain old clients and call them to explain that she had switched to Lanshan Law Firm. Then, she needed to develop new clients. The only way to achieve outstanding performance was to develop more high-quality large clients. Finally, she had to pick up Xiaoxin at the airport and arrange her accommodation.

Since she brought Xiaoxin to Senzhou for development, she had more responsibility for her, so she didn't rent a house outside for her. Instead, she gave her the house near her own home. Anyway, it was empty anyway, and it was safer to live in her own house.

Xiaoxin was too touched. Sun YuYue came with her because she happened to be on winter vacation, and he went to Zhuoyuan Technology for an internship again. The mistress couldn't stop him, and since Xiaoxin was coming, Lawyer Sun asked Shu Tinglan and Xiaoxin to take good care of him.

Sun Yue looked and saw that Xiao Xin was staying at Lawyer Shu's house. He didn't stay in a hotel anymore and insisted on taking another empty room.

In the evening, Shu Tinglan took two children to dinner with Xiao Xin and Sun Yuyou. Zhuo YUAN also insisted on coming along. Xiao Xin and Sun Yuyou were a little afraid and uncomfortable when they saw him, but luckily Zhuo Yuan's expression was mild now, which made them relax a bit.

Both children liked Xiaoxin very much. As soon as they saw her, they ran over to play with her.

After playing for a while, when it came to the end of the meal, Shu Xiaohua suddenly became unhappy, sighing like a little adult.

“Seeing Xiaoxin, I miss Uncle Yi so much.”

Shu Xiaonian also asked: "Mom, when will Uncle Yi come to see us"

Shū Tīnglān's heart ached slightly at the innocent and sincere affection. She, too, often thought of their Uncle Yì, but there was nothing she could do except hope for his safety and well-being.

Xiaoxin looked at Director Zhu awkwardly, not knowing what to say. She had been involved throughout the whole thing between Lawyer Shu and Mr. Yi walking past. Now that Lawyer Shu and Director Zhu are back together, Mr. Yi has become a sensitive topic.

Zuo Yu'an heard the children eagerly talking about Yi Uncle, of course, it felt a bit strange, but he also knew that during the time he was away, Yi Muyang had carefully taken care of them instead of him. So there was more gratitude than anything else.

"Later, Dad will take you to play with Uncle Yi."

In one sentence, the children cheered with delight, and Xiao Xin breathed a sigh of relief.

Shutinglan also glanced at him, everything was conveyed without words.

It wasn't until he was heading home that evening that Zhuo Yu'an suddenly remembered that his mother, Cheng Zhimin, had been in Senzhou for days. He had deliberately kept her from seeing Ting Lan and the children, wanting to deflate her pride.

Cheng Zhimin now doesn't dare to have any complaints. Her weakness is being held by her son, and she's still waiting for the construction funds to be transferred to the library. She can only swallow her anger and wait in Senzhou.

Unwilling to sit idle, she ignored Zhuo Yu'an and went to find Lu Kuo to pass the time. Lu Kuo dared not be as neglectful as Zhuo Yu'an, he had to carefully attend to her, for fear of displeasing her.

While attending to Teacher Cheng, she secretly hid and bombarded Zhuo Yu'an.

"Get your ancestors out of here, I can't handle them!"

Zuo Yu'an ignored him.

"Are you still a human Hide yourself and throw the hot potato to me. Come and get your people, or I'll bring Professor Cheng and go find Tinglan directly." Isn't it just Lan Shan Law Firm He's familiar with it. There's a female actuary at Tingjing Finance who is Lanshan's girlfriend.

Only then, hearing his threat, did Zhu YUAN answer slowly.

"Don't fall for her trap."

Cheng Zhimin is playing this abacus game, she doesn't dare to pressure Zhuo Yu'an, so she only dares to come find Lu Kuo. She's trying to save the situation indirectly by making Lu Kuo miserable. Naturally, Lu Kuo will be more anxious than her.

The old ginger is still the spiciest. Without a word, Lu Kuo immediately ordered Zhuo Yunan to take her to see Shu Tinglan.

Upon learning that Cheng Zhimin was coming to apologize to her, Shu Tinglan felt as if the sun had risen in the west. She knew Cheng Zhimin best; she was always aloof and arrogant. It was unimaginable for her to apologize, let alone show remorse. Shu Tinglan couldn't even bring herself to feel pity for her.

It must have been Zhuo Yu'an who used some means to coerce...

We've known each other for so long, we understand each other very well.

Just as Shu Tinglan understood Cheng Zhimin, Cheng Zhimin also knew that Shu Tinglan would be unable to accept her apology.

"Of course, Shu Tinglan told Zhu Yu'an, "You don't need to apologize to me. But if she is willing to sincerely apologize to the children, especially Shu Xiaohua, then go ahead. She is also your child, there's no need for my permission."

Cheng Zhimin craved a reconciliation. It was fine to apologize to the children, but apologizing to Shu Tinglan was something she wasn't sure she could do. They both held grudges, and it wouldn't be easy for them to forgive each other so quickly.

When Shu Xiaonian saw Cheng Zhimin again, she remembered that she was the bad person who had bullied her younger sister at the kindergarten that day. The little girl held a grudge, so even though her father introduced her as Grandma, she didn't speak and quietly sat aside observing.

On the other hand, Shu Xiaohua was rather naive and quickly fell for Cheng Zhimin's charm offensive. Soon she was calling him "Grandpa" and "Grandma" sweetly.

Cheng Zhimin was a little awkward at first. This child, she was lovely and pretty, but her features were too similar to her mother's, and she couldn't help feeling a little repelled.

But hearing Shu Xiaohua call her "Grandma" so sweetly and obediently, eating the delicious snacks she offered, even putting them right to her mouth, urging her to take a bite, in decades, no one had ever treated her with such affection. She felt awkward at first, but as she ate what Shu Xiaohua put into her mouth, she gradually tasted something sweet.

"Grandma, is it delicious" Shu Xiaohua nestled up to her, blinking her big, watery eyes expectantly.

"It's delicious," she replied, her voice softening unconsciously.

Shu Xiaohua smiled and fed her another snack.

“Grandma, have a taste of this.”

Cheng Zhimin is quite old and pays attention to health preservation. She doesn't eat any snacks usually, but this time when her granddaughter offered her one, she reluctantly took a bite.

The atmosphere was pretty good. Shu Xiaonian observed for a while and saw that grandma didn't seem to have any ill will towards her younger sister, so he moved closer to her.

Cheng Zhimin reached out and hugged him, asking...

“Would you like to go back to Beijing with Grandma for Chinese New Year”

As soon as he heard her words, Zhuo Yu'an frowned.

Cheng Zhimin hurriedly explained.

“The children are back, and they brought some things home for your grandfather to see. If your grandfather were still alive, he would be so happy.”

"Let's talk about it later," Zhu Yu'an refused without hesitation. Children weren't their tools to show off, and besides, he wouldn't take them back to the Zhu family without Tinglan's consent.

"Yu'an, Mom is truly sincere. Seeing both children brings her joy, and she simply wants to fulfill the responsibilities of a grandmother. There are no other intentions. Besides, the children will eventually have to acknowledge their ancestry, won't they If Shu Tinglan disagrees, I'll speak with her personally."d a formal meeting in a few years, he saw her every few days these past few months, so there wasn't any sense of awkwardness. 。But when he actually sat beside Tinglan, at such close proximity, feeling...
