Chapter Summary
He couldn't let things remain unclear, especially since Liu Ning had already acted as a guest host and had offended a wealthy lady earlier. Grandpa Wang and Liu Ning were the main characters today, and no matter what they wanted to talk about, many people would want to ask questions in this situation. Although Old Master Wang didn't interfere in how his subordinates lived their lives, let alone their marriages—which was considered quite open-minded in a large family—if Liu Ning didn't give a goo...
Grandpa Wang smiled and nodded. He trusted everything Liu Ning said. Of course, there was another reason for his visit: Wang Fang. After discussing the important matters, Grandpa Wang looked around. He had some free time now, as the auction had begun. Whether Liu Ning, the host, was present or not didn't matter. Grandpa Wang wanted to have a proper talk with Liu Ning. He needed to find a good outcome for his granddaughter in this situation. He couldn't let things remain unclear, especially since Liu Ning had already acted as a guest host and had offended a wealthy lady earlier. What would happen next? It was hard to say. So, he needed Liu Ning to give his opinion.
There wasn't a suitable place to talk around, as the surrounding area was filled with a joyful atmosphere, and many people were chatting in twos and threes. Grandpa Wang and Liu Ning were the main characters today, and no matter what they wanted to talk about, many people would want to ask questions in this situation. It was precisely because of this that the two went directly to Grandpa Wang's car. Fortunately, Grandpa Wang's car was quite large, otherwise, talking in this place might have caused claustrophobia. Liu Ning certainly didn't have such symptoms, but if the space were too cramped, who knows what the situation would be like? So Liu Ning followed along. As for what the final outcome would be, that would depend on the actual situation today. To be honest, Grandpa Wang was not very comfortable with Liu Ning's behavior.
"Let me be honest with you. I've already made preparations for Wang Fang's blind date. I was hoping it would be a good opportunity for our family to gain more support. But this girl has officially rejected me. You probably already know the result, so there's nothing to be happy about. You've seen the situation now. This girl's devotion to you isn't just talk. You know your own situation. Our family has already taken on some debts for you. Of course, these debts aren't monetary. If you abandon her in the future, things will get complicated. You need to give me an answer now. I need to know what you're thinking. Our family isn't one to be bullied. Do you understand what I'm saying?" Some things are just like that.
Old Master Wang's face was devoid of smiles, which was understandable. If it were anyone else, they probably would have already started a fight with Liu Ning. Judging from today's events, Wang Fang was clearly acting like the lady of the house, which meant that outsiders understood the situation, but the problem was that she didn't have a real position. Sitting next to Liu Ning was Zhang Jing. Old Master Wang had observed her several times. Although he couldn't find fault with the woman, he still felt uneasy about the situation. After all, his granddaughter was involved, and it couldn't just end like this. It was still somewhat uncomfortable for everyone, so everyone was watching very carefully. As for what would happen in the future, that was a matter for later. Today, Liu Ning needed to make a statement first, otherwise, this matter wouldn't be resolved.
Liu Ning knew this day would come sooner or later, so when Old Master Wang called him, Liu Ning didn't say a word and obediently followed. He knew this matter might not be easy to resolve, but then again, some things can't be avoided. In this situation, it was perfectly normal for the other family's parents to come and ask questions. If he didn't answer, given Old Master Wang's way of doing things, he might never see Wang Fang again. Although Old Master Wang didn't interfere in how his subordinates lived their lives, let alone their marriages—which was considered quite open-minded in a large family—if Liu Ning didn't give a good answer, Old Master Wang probably wouldn't be happy. In this situation, a result was necessary.
"You know my situation. I'm not really in a position to tell you this, but you were young once too, and you know what it was like back then. So I'm laying everything out here. Whatever the old man says goes, and I won't argue with him."
After thinking for a moment, Liu Ning decided to simply accept the situation. As for how to resolve it, he passed the buck to Old Master Wang. Divorcing his wife was out of the question; after all, a wife who has shared hardship should not be abandoned. How could he possibly kick Zhang Jing away in his current situation? If he really did, not only would he not be respected by others, but even his own mother would not be willing to accept it. Therefore, he could only try to make up for Wang Fang's situation in other ways.
"Your attitude is not bad, but you're a bit slippery. Why should I make decisions for you? You should handle this matter yourself. I know you won't mistreat that girl, which shows how capable you are now. But you should also be grateful. I've helped you through a lot of pressure on your path to success, so you don't need to talk about repaying me. If we become family, we won't need to say anything. You have to give that girl an explanation. I don't care how high you rise in the future, but I will never allow anyone to abandon you. If that happens, I will make sure you are embarrassed, even if it costs me my old bones. We need to be upfront about this so we can discuss things more easily later."
Despite his advanced age, Old Master Wang spoke with a firm and resolute voice. Faced with this situation, no one knew what to say. Liu Ning could only nod and consider how to explain things to Wang Fang. She couldn't be left with nothing, so Liu Ning had made up his mind. After returning from the ancient ruins, he needed to acquire some assets. Although he had enough money in his storage space, he couldn't just give it away directly; otherwise, people might misunderstand. Therefore, acquiring a large number of assets and distributing them would ensure that even if something happened to him, they could still live a stable life—not a life of constant struggle, but a secure one.
