"Thank you, Ling Yi." Joanne smiled alienated: "but it's my own business. I can solve it myself."
Ling Yi naturally knew that he had no position to do anything. There was a loss at the bottom of his eyes. He could only help her swipe her card to open the door: "have a good rest. I'll be busy tomorrow."
"OK." Joanne pushed the door in and said, "bye."
The door of the room was closed in front of Ling Yi. He looked down at the ground and turned away after a long silence.
When I passed the old man's room, I was called in by Ling.
"What's the matter, Grandpa?"
"Sit down."
Ling Lao motioned for a moment, and Ling Yi sat down on the sofa: "Grandpa..."
"Do you like Joanne?" Ling Lao asked without hesitation.
Ling Yi was stunned for a moment, lowered her eyes for a moment, and then nodded her head: "well..."
"Your parents and I don't force you to be with peace. We respect your choices, but that doesn't mean we respect all your choices."
Ling Lao's tone was serious: "Joan and Huo Chengzhou have married. If you have a little moral bottom line, you should know how to avoid suspicion?"
Ling Yi didn't expect the old man to say this so heavily. He immediately wanted to refute: "Grandpa..."
The old man raised his hand and stopped his words: "and I can see that Joan has been consciously keeping a distance from you. Don't you feel it yourself?"
Ling Yi was astringent: "I know."
"That means Joan doesn't like you!"
Ling Yi nodded again: "I know."
"One more thing, Anning and the Shen family like Joan so much, and you have an engagement with Anning. If you are interested, you should accept your feelings!" Ling Lao wrung his eyebrows: "otherwise, how do you let Joan get along with the Shen family?"
Ling Yi really didn't think of this layer and immediately blushed: "I'm sorry, Grandpa, it's my thoughtlessness."
Father Ling looked at him displeased: "book a ticket back to Jinghai early tomorrow morning. Don't worry about me and Joan. The Shen family are more reliable than you!"
Ling Yi drooped her eyes and looked ashamed, but he couldn't listen to the old man's words.
"Good grandpa..." the tip of his tongue touched the gums and he said, "don't get angry. I'll leave early tomorrow morning... Similar things won't happen in the future."
The old man raised his hand and rubbed the center of his eyebrows: "go back to sleep."
Ling Yi got up: "OK, Grandpa... I'll leave early tomorrow morning, but I'll arrange someone to take care of you, otherwise I'm not at ease."
Ling Lao nodded: "HMM."
Seeing Ling Yi leave, the old man sighed deeply. Ling Yi grew up when he was a child. He knows his temperament very well. I'm afraid it's a little difficult for him to like someone again.
But Joanne can't.
The Huo family are cruel characters. If he had known that Joan had a relationship with the Huo family, he would have stopped it in advance.
At present, we can only help Joan within our ability. In addition, I'm afraid it's useless to do more.
……
Shen Zhai.
When Shen Yijia returned, Shen Mingyuan, Sui Yue and Shen Lao were sitting in the living room waiting for him.
As soon as he entered the door, he felt a tense atmosphere: "what's the matter?"
Old Shen waved to him, "come and sit down. I have something to ask you."
Shen Yijia sat down on the sofa and said, "what's up, Grandpa?"
Old Shen's wrinkled face added a touch of Qi wing: "I just heard your father say that you also think Joan may be our Shen family? Where's the information you checked? Show it to me."
Shen Yijia glanced at Shen Mingyuan. The implication was that he didn't tell his grandpa and mother about it?
Shen Mingyuan shook his head slightly: "Joan looks so much like our family. When the old man asked, I said..."
