Chapter 686: Looking for a Way Out
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Just now, Yang Ming was in deep thought about Chen Mengyan’s words. Yang Ming didn’t have the interest to see if a green tea bottle would win a prize. It would be good to even have a bottle!
“What kind of memory do you have?” Chen Mengyan glanced at Yang Ming and said, “How about it? Try to guess. Would this bottle of green tea win a prize? If you guess it right, I wouldn’t care about the previous matter.”
In fact, although Chen Mengyan said so, she didn’t intend to compare with Yang Ming. She was just looking for a way out. As long as Yang Ming said that he wouldn’t win the prize, then Chen Mengyan wouldn’t deliberately tear the label and look into it.
“This is what you said. You can’t go back on your words!” Yang Ming glanced at the green tea label and smiled. A guessing game with Yang Ming? Yang Ming was the best at it.
” En .” Chen Mengyan nodded.
“Then I will start guessing!” Yang Ming hesitated and said, “Let me guess. It should be another bottle!”
” Ah ?” Chen Mengyan was shocked. She was annoyed deep down in her heart. Yang Ming, why are you so stupid? Can’t you notice it? I’m looking for a way out. What is your intention? If you say you didn’t win the prize, then won’t it work? Who can be so lucky to have two bottles?
Alright, since you said so, don’t blame me for being unkind! Chen Mengyan thought about it and said coldly, “Great. Since you’re so determined, I will take a look!”
How could Yang Ming not notice that Chen Mengyan was looking for a way out? But Yang Ming was so determined because he had already seen “another bottle” written on the back of the label.
“It’s alright to reveal it, but Mengyan, you won’t be going back on your words, right?” Yang Ming wanted to take this opportunity to make Chen Mengyan never use Lin Zhiyun and Lan Ling again to make a fuss.
“Do not worry. I make my words count!” Chen Mengyan said as she grabbed the green tea bottle in Yang Ming’s hand and uncovered the label.
Yang Ming looked at the eagerness in Chen Mengyan and shook his head. Later on, I can watch you being speechless.
Sure enough, after Chen Mengyan ripped open the label, she intended to sneer at Yang Ming with a sullen face. She didn’t expect to see the words “another bottle.”
“How is it? Is there a prize?” Yang Ming asked, knowingly.
” Hmph ! I didn’t expect you to be so lucky!” Chen Mengyan didn’t know what to do this time. She didn’t have a reason to lecture Yang Ming. She had to calm herself down and return the green tea to him. Then she said in a double entendre, “It seems you picked the right one.”
” Hehe …” Yang Ming smiled, but he didn’t dare to be too proud.
“Yes, Yang Ming. I heard that Zhou Jiajia’s mother isn’t from Song Jiang. If she returned to Donghai, what should Zhou Jiajia do? She can’t live in the hospital all the time!” Chen Mengyan said.
“Yes, then what do you say should be done?” Yang Ming thought about it and thought that what Chen Mengyan said was also reasonable. Mother Zhou couldn’t always be with Zhou Jiajia, and it was impossible to leave the company’s affairs alone.
“I think we can rent a house near the university, and then bring Zhou Jiajia over. We can hire a full-time nurse.” Chen Mengyan spoke until that point and suddenly her face turned red. “When we’re free, we can go and visit her… It will be our little s.p.a.ce near the university…”
” Hah , it turns out that my little Mengyan thought about cohabitation!” Yang Ming was stunned and immediately heard the implied meaning in Chen Mengyan’s words.
“What cohabitation? It sounds so ugly…” Chen Mengyan glanced at Yang Ming.
“Isn’t it?” Yang Ming looked at Chen Mengyan with a smile.
“Of course not. Usually, we still have to live at school…” Chen Mengyan said.
“We usually live at school, but can we live there on the weekends, right?” asked Yang Ming.
“Weekends… I have to go home often on weekends…” Chen Mengyan thought so, so she didn’t make her words like iron facts, and it was rather ambiguous. Yang Ming could understand her intention too.
“Good, I can see this happening.” Yang Ming said, “Wait a while. After Aunty Hua comes back, I will discuss it with her.”
As they spoke, Mother Zhou pushed the door and walked in. She held several company doc.u.ments in her hand. Apparently, someone had just sent them to her.
“Aunty Hua, you are so busy. Do you still need to deal with the company’s doc.u.ments?” Yang Ming asked with a smile.
“It can’t be helped. Although most of the affairs have been handed over to my vice president, there are still some important doc.u.ments for me to personally read.” Mother Zhou said reluctantly, “They send it to me every day, and then take it back in the afternoon.”
“Aunty Hua, in this case, I have a proposal. Do you think it can work?” After Yang Ming finished his words, he told Mrs. Zhou about the things he had just discussed in regards to Zhou Jiajia.
” Oh ?” Mother Zhou sighed and said, “You mean, you would take care of Jiajia in the future?”
“Aunty Hua should be clear about the matters between me and Jiajia, right?” Yang Ming hesitated and asked.
” En …” Mother Zhou nodded slightly. She heard the stories between Yang Ming and Zhou Jiajia from w.a.n.g Xue.
“Since Aunty Hua already knows, I won’t explain much.” Yang Ming said, “According to the doctor, Jiajia can’t wake up now. She probably has a knot in her heart. I think if I often accompany her and speak to her, there must be some effect, right?”
Mother Zhou knew that Yang Ming was telling the truth. She also thought about whether the knot in her daughter’s heart was because of Yang Ming’s incident. So at this moment, Yang Ming’s words were a bit heart-warming for Mother Zhou.
“Then don’t you usually go to school? Can you take care of Jiajia?” This was what Mother Zhou was most worried about.
“I mean, we can hire a professional nurse. When I have no cla.s.s, I can go and talk to Jiajia.” Yang Ming said.
” En , this idea isn’t bad.” Mother Zhou nodded. “That would trouble you.”
“How will it be troublesome? This is what I should do!” Yang Ming smiled and said, “Aunty Hua, you can rest a.s.sured.”
“Okay, that is it then. How much will it cost? Just tell me.” Mother Zhou said, “In regards to looking for a place, I will have to trouble you. As for the medical staff, the hospital can help.”
” Hehe , Aunty Hua, you’re too courteous. Let us not talk about money. I have some on my side.” Yang Ming smiled.
Mother Zhou nodded and said nothing.
Yang Ming and Chen Mengyan went out of the hospital. Both of them sighed. In the ward, watching Zhou Jiajia, who was still asleep, they were really depressed.
“Yang Ming, let’s go find a house to rent.” In the car, Chen Mengyan asked Yang Ming.
“What renting? Let’s just buy one.” Yang Ming said indifferently.
“Buy? You haven’t set up the company yet. Where can you find the money to buy it?” Chen Mengyan said, “Yang Ming, you have a little money in your hands. You can’t just mess around, right?”
“Don’t worry, Mengyan. Your husband is wealthy and rich. I’m really not short of money.” Yang Ming smiled.
“Really?” Chen Mengyan looked at Yang Ming suspiciously.
“Mengyan, I don’t want to hide it from you, but I will tell you now. Don’t tell anyone.” Yang Ming saw Chen Mengyan’s words in the ward with Zhou Jiajia. He was deeply moved. He didn’t plan to hide from Chen Mengyan anymore. He knew that when Chen Mengyan could make such a big sacrifice, it meant that Chen Mengyan had decided to be with him.
“What the h.e.l.l is it? Why are you making it so mysterious?” Chen Mengyan said, baffled, “Just say. I won’t tell anyone else!”
“The w.a.n.g Family had fallen. Do you know who the beneficiaries of this storm are?” Yang Ming still didn’t plan to tell Chen Mengyan about the income in the grey area, but sharing about the legitimate a.s.sets would be just fine.
“Who was it?” Chen Mengyan sighed and said, “It can’t be you, right?”
Yang Ming smiled and nodded. “Yes! The w.a.n.g Group had now fallen into my hands. Now it belongs to Ming Yang Entertainment Group.”
“You?” Chen Mengyan looked at Yang Ming in amazement. “Really? Yang Ming, you didn’t lie to me?”
“Even I lied to someone, I can’t lie to you, right!?” Yang Ming shook his head and said, “Not only this w.a.n.g Group, now the Ming Yang Security Company in Song Jiang, and my dad’s Heavy Industry Group, all of them are my businesses…”
“Ming Yang? Yang Ming…” Chen Mengyan muttered these two words. She was shocked all of a sudden. She spoke as though she didn’t know Yang Ming, “…What happened?”
Yang Ming was with her since high school. Chen Mengyan was naturally clear with Yang Ming’s condition. However, she didn’t expect that Yang Ming, who was usually awkward and forthright, had so many businesses!
When did he establish these businesses? I’m his girlfriend. Although I’m not always with him, at least I should know something, right!?
However, Chen Mengyan knew nothing at all. How could she not be surprised at this moment!?
“Mengyan, this thing has to be told from the beginning. If you want to listen, then I will tell you slowly.” Yang Ming looked at Chen Mengyan’s surprised expression and said, amused.
