Old Master Gong seemed to have summoned him.
However, after he finished talking about business matters, Huo Yanran suddenly sighed, looking extremely resentful, "Grandfather … I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you."
"What disappointed me?"
"I know you want to matchmake me with Ye Xiao. I also like him a lot and want to be with him a lot, but …" Huo Yanran immediately pursed her lips, looking very wronged.
"But what?" Old Master Gong frowned and asked.
Huo Yanran took out her phone and flipped to the video that her friend sent yesterday. She opened it and played it in front of the Old Master Gong.
In the video, Gong Yexiao and Cheng Liyue intimately walked into the dining hall arm in arm, and entered the private room side by side. After she finished playing it, she dejectedly took back her phone and said, "Right now, in Ye Xiao's heart, there is only this girl, I can't enter his heart at all."
Old Master Gong's face immediately became angry. Last night, he heard Gong Yan say that his grandson could even throw aside the sensible meeting just to cheer for that girl. Now, he saw her and his grandson walking in and out of various places intimately, in Old Master Gong's heart.
His grandson was still his outstanding grandson, everything was Cheng Liyue's fault, she was the one who encouraged him to listen in! And in the video just now, Cheng Liyue was intimately holding onto Gong Yexiao, as if she was a seducer, which made him even angrier.
"Yanran, don't worry. Grandpa will take care of this."
"Grandfather, how do you want to solve this?"
"You don't have to worry about that. In short, Grandfather will help you." Old Master Gong promised, he had already endured the matter of Cheng Liyue seducing his grandson to the limit, if he did not make a move, he was afraid that this grandson of his would really become this girl's tool to do whatever she wanted.
Huo Yanran's goal in coming here this time was to get the Old Master Gong to take action. She thought that the Old Master Gong was originally dissatisfied with Cheng Liyue, and now, seeing her taking the initiative to hold Gong Yexiao's arm in the dining hall, he definitely felt even worse in his heart.
What Huo Yanran did not know was that Gong Yan had also taken the opportunity to add fuel to the fire last night, burning Old Master Gong's dissatisfaction with Cheng Liyue even more.
At around ten o'clock, Huo Yanran received an important call, so she had no choice but to take her leave. She originally wanted to have lunch here, but it seemed like she couldn't.
After Huo Yanran left, Old Master Gong immediately called for the butler and ordered him, "Prepare a carriage for me, I want to meet someone."
"Sir, who do you want to meet?"
"I want to see Ozawa's mother, Cheng Liyue. I want to see what kind of charm this girl has, to be able to captivate my grandson so much that he even lost his own nature."
"It's almost lunchtime. Do you want to order lunch?"
"Ask her out for lunch!" Old Master Gong nodded, "Find a place near her company, and save her time."
The butler immediately nodded. "Alright, I'll arrange it right away."
After taking almost half a month off, the moment Cheng Liyue returned to work, she was surrounded by the employees and asked about all sorts of topics.
"Designer Cheng, did you go on a honeymoon with Gym Tung? Where did you guys go? "
"Designer Cheng, look at your glowing face. You must have had a good time!"
Cheng Liyue was a little speechless, she only smiled and did not reply. The eight hangers in the office were always new, she did not want to participate.
After entering Lin Da's office, Lin Da also asked curiously, "I heard that you and Gong Yexiao went on vacation, where did you go?"
"Sister Lin Da, you believe it too!" Cheng Liyue asked with a smile.
"Of course I'm curious too!"
"No, he's at home. Something happened to him, so I'll accompany him." Cheng Liyue did not say it clearly, but explained it clearly.
Lin Da did not pursue the matter, but instead said to her, "Your painting is already in the evaluation stage, and has entered the review stage. I heard that it has advanced."
"Really?" Cheng Liyue was happy.
"I'm confident in your painting. Maybe you really can get a big prize."
"It would be great if I could really get a big prize."
"Believe in yourself, you can do it." Lin Da smiled and encouraged.
Just then, Tang Weiwei brought Cheng Liyue's phone over, "Liyue Sis, your phone, quickly answer it, it's been ringing for a while."
Cheng Liyue took it and immediately picked it up, "Hello."
"Hello, may I ask if this is Miss Cheng Liyue?" On the other end was a deep and mellow male voice.
Cheng Liyue was startled for a moment, then blinked her eyes and said, "Yes, I am."
"I'm the butler of the Gong Family. Are you free?"
"What's the matter?" Cheng Liyue's heart instantly tensed up. The butler of the Gong Family was looking for her?
"It's like this. Our old man came out to eat today. He wants to invite you to lunch together."
Old Master Gong? Cheng Liyue's heart was in her throat, a strong sense of unease flashed past her face, but she still calmly replied, "Alright."
"My car is at the entrance of your company. Please come down!"
"Alright, I'll be right down." Cheng Liyue took a deep breath, but her heart was beating wildly.
She immediately wanted to call Gong Yexiao, but she pressed it instead. This way, it would seem that she was too unruly, and the person whom the Old Master Gong asked to meet was her.
She felt that the Old Master Gong must have come with ill intentions this time! Could it be that he wanted to discuss the custody of Ozawa with her? Or …
Let her leave Gong Yexiao?
No matter which one it was, Cheng Liyue did not dare imagine it, but she had to face it head on.
She packed her bag and walked towards the elevator.
Outside the hall, a black low-profile luxury car was parked there. When Cheng Liyue came out, an old man in his early sixties got out of the car and politely opened the door for her.
"Miss Cheng, please!"
"Thank you." Cheng Liyue thought, he must be the butler of the Gong Family!
As the car drove on the road, the butler sat on the copilot. Cheng Liyue clenched her fingers, not knowing how to ask, she knew that the butler would definitely not tell her anything.
She quietly sat in the car and arrived at the entrance of a restaurant. The main entrance looked ordinary, but it was definitely a private restaurant for the rich.
Walking into the hall decorated with mahogany furniture, the butler led her upstairs to a private room on the second floor. He knocked on the door and pushed it open.
Cheng Liyue's heart tensed up to the extreme. The last time she saw the Old Master Gong from afar during the annual celebration, he was an old man who was almost seventy years old, but was hale and hearty.
She didn't know what was waiting for her.
"Miss Cheng, please come in." The butler gestured to her. Between his words and actions, he seemed to make her see the image of a servant in the old society.
That's right, the Gong Family is an ancient family that has been around for nearly a century. It's not strange for them to have such a polite butler.
Cheng Liyue politely walked in with her head lowered.
She saw an old man sitting on a dining chair in a bright window, holding a cup of tea in his hand as he sized her up.
