Chapter 222 - Announced To The World
Chapter 222 Announced To The World
On the surface, everything seemed to make sense.
But Lin Bai’s intuition told him that things were definitely not as simple as they seemed.
There must be some secret hidden behind it.
Otherwise, the Future News App wouldn’t have specially popped up to remind him.
And it wouldn’t have specially attached a relevant link under the news to mention Qin Weikang’s death.
“It seems that if I want to prevent the death of Old Master Ye, I have to start with Qin Weikang first.”
Lin Bai muttered to himself. He already had a vague idea of what he should do next.
After confirming that there were no other clues in the news, Lin Bai put away his phone and returned to Yu Jinmo’s side.
Yu Jinmo had been looking forward to his return like the stars and the Moon. The moment he saw him, he could not wait to ask,
“Has Mr. A forgiven you?”
Lin Bai nodded and replied vaguely, “We’ve already spoken about it. It’s fine.”
“That’s good.”
Yu Jinmo was finally relieved.
The plane took off very quickly and the two of them arrived at the Ye residence very quickly.
The servants led Lin Bai and Yu Jinmo directly into Old Master Ye’s bedroom.
Old Master Ye forced himself to sit on the bed. When he saw Yu Jinmo and Lin Bai enter the room, he tried his best to smile.
However, it was still difficult to hide his sickly face.
“Jinmo, come, come, let me take a good look at you.”
Old Master Ye waved Yu Jinmo over. His movements were soft and powerless.
Yu Jinmo’s nose immediately turned sour. He quickly went forward to hold the old man’s hand and sobbed.
“I’m sorry, Grandpa. I made you wait for me for so long.”
The old man smiled weakly. “We’re all family. There’s no need to say sorry.”
“To be able to see you, my heart is more than half relieved.”
Yu Jinmo said with tears in his eyes, “Grandpa, take good care of yourself. I’ll stay here with you. I’ll go back when you’re better.”
“Good girl.”
Old Master Ye patted Yu Jinmo’s hand with great effort. Then, he looked at Lin Bai. After sizing him up gently, his eyes revealed a hint of approval.
“You must beLin Bai, right? You look pretty good. You look like a well-read and reasonable child.”
“I’ll entrust Jinmo to you in the future. You have to treat her well!”
The old man reminded him earnestly, as if he was looking after his orphan.
Lin Bai said seriously, “Grandpa, don’t worry. I’ll definitely make Jinmo happy.”
When Old Master Ye heard Lin Bai call him “Grandpa” his face immediately lit up with joy.
“Good child. With you taking care of Jinmo, I’ll be at ease.”
Yu Jinmo choked with sobs and said, “Grandfather, you have to get well soon. When Lin Bai and I get married in the future, I still want you to be the marriage witness.”
Old Master Ye smiled but did not say anything. There was a hint of sadness on his face.
Obviously, he did not think that he could hold on until that day.
“Jinmo, I’ve accepted you as my godgranddaughter, but I haven’t even held a proper ceremony.” “My relatives and friends in the circle don’t even know that I have a granddaughter.Grandpa has always felt very sorry for you.”
“So, I wanted to take advantage of the fact that I’m still not terminally ill to ask you to hurry over and go through all the necessary ceremonies. I also wanted you to meet your relatives at home.”
“Of course, I also wanted them to recognize you and Lin Bai. This way, even if I leave in the future, you and Lin Bai will always be the granddaughter and grandson-in-law of the Ye family.”
“In the future, they will also take care of all kinds of big and small matters…”
Old Master Ye rambled on. Obviously, this was the thing that he couldn’t rest assured about.
The Ye family could be said to be one of the top wealthy families among all. Their family connections were spread throughout the political and business worlds, and they had extremely high influence.
If Old Master Ye wanted to formally acknowledge Yu Jinmo as his godgranddaughter before he died, it was the same as giving Yu Jinmo and Lin Bai the most advantageous protection.
In the future, even if the old man was no longer around, no one would dare to bully Yu Jinmo and Lin Bai for the sake of his face and the Ye family’s background.
He truly loved Yu Jinmo as if he was his own granddaughter, which was why he had thought so thoroughly and far ahead.
Yu Jinmo naturally understood his intentions.
The tears that he had been trying hard to control finally burst out uncontrollably.
Yu Jinmo cried, “Grandpa, don’t say that. You’ll definitely live to be a hundred years old!”
“You’re still sick. The most important thing is to rest well. Don’t waste your energy on some ceremony.Even if you want to do it, you should wait until you’ve recovered!”
“Otherwise, how can I feel bad if you aggravate your illness from exhaustion in order to organize the ceremony!?”
Old master Ye sighed and said, “Silly girl… I know what kind of condition his body is in now. I’m afraid this illness won’t be cured…”
Yu Jinmo shook his head repeatedly, “Grandfather, don’t say such disheartening words. You’ll definitely get better!”
Old master Ye said, “Girl, listen to what I have to say.”
“Birth, old age, illness, and death are natural laws. No one can escape that day.I have long been mentally prepared, so don’t say those comforting words.”
“Grandpa has lived for so long. He has lived in glory and he has been down and out. He has experienced all kinds of storms. It’s worth it.”
“The only thing I can’t rest assured about now is you.Only by letting everyone know that you are my granddaughter and that you have the support of the entire Ye family can I leave with peace of mind.”
“So if you want to be filial to me, then listen to my arrangements obediently.”
“I have already sent out the invitations. The day after tomorrow, he will hold a banquet at home and officially introduce you and Lin Bai to relatives and friends.”
“There will be corresponding reports in the media. Grandfather wants to let the entire country know that you are my granddaughter.”
Yu Jinmo threw herself into Old Master Ye’s arms and wept silently.
How could she repay such love and consideration for her in every way?
Lin Bai stood at the side and quietly listened to Old Master Ye say these words. He could not help but sigh in his heart. Old Master Ye really doted on Yu Jinmo to the extreme.
Old Master Ye’s biological granddaughter was wandering outside and had not been able to meet him even until her death.
This regret and self-blame had been suppressed in Old Master Ye’s heart for God knows how many years.
Now, he should have projected his regret towards his biological granddaughter onto Yu Jinmo, his godgranddaughter. That was why he did everything he could to give Yu Jinmo the best of everything.
no
Even Lin Bai had taken care of him.
Such a deep friendship should be repaid.
Lin Bai secretly swore in his heart that no matter what, he must keep Old Master Ye alive.
I must not let him die a lonely death in the late night, as described in the Future News app.
