"Our idea is to let her take this opportunity to apologize to the other party. Everyone is still young, and young people don't hold grudges overnight."
"but… "
Old Lady Hai's eyes flickered slightly. "I know I've made things difficult for you. If I hadn't been in trouble, why would I have come to you, my old sister, to ask for help? You helped me this time, and I will remember your favor. And I've already educated her in private, and she won't cause you any trouble."
"Do you remember the original Qi Baishi painting that I treasure?"
"Remember, isn't that the treasure you bought with great difficulty?"
Mrs. Hai's heart was bleeding, but her face was as warm as a spring breeze: "I want her to take this painting to Miss Qiao this time."
"Mr. Ye and my old man have a close relationship. Before he passed away, my old man was most worried about Haitong, so he specifically asked Mr. Ye to help take care of the child. Haitong also knows that she did something wrong this time, and this time she just wants to apologize to Grandpa Ye..."
She spoke in every way about the friendship between her family and the Ye family, and repeatedly assured Haitong that she had brought a birthday gift with sufficient sincerity, had learned her lesson, and would not cause any more trouble...
The fact that the Li family can be on good terms with the Hai family shows that they are not top-notch in the circle, but are just slightly better than the Hai family.
Old Mrs. Li has been close friends with the old lady of the Hai family over the years, and she also takes advantage of the fact that the Hai family has the Ye family as their backer.
The old lady of the Hai family promised implicitly and explicitly that she would remember this favor, and also talked about how much Mr. Ye valued Hai Tong.
It finally shook her heart.
“…No matter how close Haitong is to the Ye family, she is not their child after all. It’s different for their granddaughter-in-law. You know we can’t afford to offend the Ye family.”
Grandma Haitong smiled and said, "I know you helped me this time. I will always remember your kindness."
Li De's grandmother was still wary of her alleged relationship with the Ye family. Moreover, Haitong's grandmother knew why she called, but she still refused to give in and insisted that she take Haitong with her.
After all, she was a noble lady, and couldn't save face, so she had to reluctantly agree: "You must talk to her properly. Young people nowadays... are not that easy to educate."
"Don't worry." Grandma Haitong smiled again and again.
Then the other end hung up the phone.
The smile on her face faded away like water. With a gloomy face, she quickly walked up to her granddaughter who was still putting on makeup and said coldly, "I don't want to tell you so much. Your father should have told you everything that needs to be said. Just remember one thing, this is your last chance! If you don't seize it, don't blame grandma for not feeling sorry for you. You like overseas countries, so you can stay there forever and don't have to come back!"
Father Hai's heart trembled: "Mom..."
Hai Mu also pleaded: "Mom, Hai Tong is still young."
Haitong's grandmother didn't buy it. She said to the family of three mercilessly: "Twenty-something is not young anymore. Look at other people's 20s, and then look at her. I don't have that much sunk cost to spend on her. She doesn't want to go abroad. If she can't grasp this opportunity, I have no choice but to help her!"
Hai's father and mother knew very well what the old lady meant. They felt anxious and upset. However, Hai Tong had done so many wrong things that they did not dare to continue begging for mercy, fearing that the old lady would not even be willing to give her this chance.
Only Haitong herself didn't realize the meaning of the old lady's words. She pursed her lips and replied unhappily: "Don't worry, I will give her the gift." (End of this chapter)
