The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 311: Chapter 310: Granddaughter

Old Master Ding was completely focused on investigating Chen Meilian, and his efficiency naturally improved significantly. When he discovered that Chen Meilian had also orchestrated the first two kidnappings of Ding Yuejun, he didn’t hesitate any longer and had Chen Meilian taken to the station.

By the time Ding Yating found out about this, she was shattered and didn’t care about anything else; she went straight to find Old Master Ding.

”Dad, did you know about Mom being taken away?”

Hearing this, Old Master Ding glanced at Ding Yating and said, ”I know.”

Seeing her father’s calm demeanor, Ding Yating suddenly found herself speechless. After a long moment, she said, ”Dad, didn’t Mom agree to sign the divorce papers that day, and you said you wouldn’t hold her actions against her?”

Old Master Ding gave his daughter a deep look and then chuckled lightly, ”Back then, I did promise her that as long as she signed the divorce agreement, I wouldn’t hold her accountable for stealing my token and ordering someone to assassinate Yue Jun. But then I found out that she did more than just that; she was involved in many shady activities.”

As he finished speaking, Old Master Ding flung a dossier in front of Ding Yating.

Taking the document, Ding Yating began to look through it slowly. Seeing the contents, she couldn’t help but widen her eyes, ”This...this is impossible.”

”Why impossible? Without your mother, do you think your uncle could have risen so quickly?”

Old Master Ding said coldly, then turned to Ding Yating and said, ”Alright, you should go home. Don’t meddle in these matters.”

Ding Yating, however, didn’t move. Once calmed down, she looked steadily at Old Master Ding and asked, ”Dad, so this time, because of my sister’s ties, you’re implicating both Mom and Uncle, aren’t you?”

Hearing this, Old Master Ding gave his daughter a slight look and said, ”Yating, you’ve changed into someone I don’t recognize. I really hope you could be as upright and kind as you used to be, but you seem to have changed a bit.”

”Dad, I haven’t changed; you have. You want to punish Mom because of my sister’s issue.”

”And do you think your mother did nothing wrong?”

Old Master Ding said no more, asking just this one question.

But Ding Yating found herself unable to answer. She knew her mother did wrong, but emotionally, she couldn’t judge her own mother’s right or wrong impartially.

”Alright, Yating, go home now.”

Old Master Ding, seeing his daughter like this, couldn’t express his disappointment in words. It seemed he had seen Yating in a better light before.

”Dad, then I’ll be going home.”

Ding Yating, feeling a bit disturbed, quickly said goodbye to Old Master Ding and directly went home.

Once home, Shu Yunfang immediately came up to her.

”Mom, what did Grandpa say?”

Feeling somewhat powerless, Ding Yating waved her hand and said, ”Your Grandpa knows about Grandma now.”

”Then Grandpa will surely bail Grandma out, right?”

Hearing her daughter’s words, Ding Yating closed her eyes and said, ”Your Grandpa probably won’t do that because...he’s the one behind all of this.”

”What...”

Shu Yunfang’s face was full of panic. Although she had her suspicions, to truly know it was Old Master Ding behind it left her bewildered. Would her grandparents no longer care for her from now on?

On the other side, after Ding Yating left, Old Master Ding went straight to the hospital.

”Yiyi, I came to see you.”

Seeing Yiyi, Old Master Ding’s face was full of smiles, completely devoid of his usual sternness.

Yet Yiyi responded to Old Master Ding with just a simple nod and nothing more.

For the past few days, Yiyi had heard about the things Old Master Ding was doing against the Chen Family, so her attitude was slightly better today. Normally, she would have sent him away directly.

Old Master Ding noticed that while Yiyi was still somewhat distant, at least she hadn’t sent him away. Hence, he thickened his skin and stayed, even inquiring about Ding Yuejun’s whereabouts.

”Mom went out to handle some things.”

Since Chen Meilian was in custody, Yiyi also felt comfortable letting Ding Yuejun go out. Today, it truly wasn’t a good time for Old Master Ding to visit.

Upon hearing Yiyi’s words, Old Master Ding felt a bit of regret in his heart, but seeing his granddaughter was enough to make him very happy.

”Since your mother had something to do, I’ll come to see her next time. Are you feeling better now?”

”Much better.”

Yiyi answered simply, and then there was silence again.

Old Master Ding was also not much of a talker, and for a while, the two of them just stared at each other, not knowing what to say, a faint awkwardness in the air.

It was Gu Tingyu at the side who broke the silence, ”Old Master Ding, I’ll go buy some food for Yiyi. Is there anything you’d like? I can pick it up for you as well.”

Without thinking, Old Master Ding immediately said, ”I’ll have whatever Yiyi’s having.”

Hearing this, Gu Tingyu smiled and nodded, ”Alright, I’ll go get it now.”

Yiyi threw a glance at Old Master Ding, a bit helpless in her expression.

Since handling the Chen Meilian affair, Old Master Ding had been openly coming to see her frequently. Despite his decisive approach in dealing with Chen Meilian, Yiyi still felt a bit uneasy about this grandfather, who had suddenly appeared.

”What’s the matter, Yiyi? Are you feeling uncomfortable? I’ll fetch the doctor for you.”

Seeing Yiyi continuously looking at him, Old Master Ding hurriedly asked out of concern.

Yiyi quickly shook her head, ”No need, I’m not uncomfortable, but...Old Ding, you can’t just decide my mom is your daughter based on a photo.”

”Why not? As soon as I saw Yuejun, I knew she was A Meng’s daughter, no doubt about it.”

Seeing Old Master Ding so certain, Yiyi still said, ”There are many people who look alike in this world.”

”Hmm... Are there also people who look alike and share the same birthmark?”

Yiyi was caught speechless by his words and suddenly didn’t know what to say. She no longer mentioned doing a DNA test, fearing that if she continued doubting this, Old Master Ding might get angry.

Gu Tingyu moved quickly and soon returned with the food, providing an opportunity for Yiyi to dispel the awkward atmosphere.

It was the first time Old Master Ding felt so close to Yiyi, and his joy was evident on his face.

However, while the three of them were eating, others came to visit Yiyi.

The visitors were Mr. Chu and Jiang Yizi, both of whom were surprised to see Old Master Ding. Upon confirming it was Yiyi, they knew they hadn’t entered the wrong room.

”Old Ding, why are you here?”

Mr. Chu, having seen Old Master Ding before, recognized him immediately and was full of surprise.

Hearing this, Old Master Ding directly replied, ”I came to see my granddaughter.”

”Granddaughter?”

Mr. Chu felt even more confused. He only knew Old Master Ding had one granddaughter, Shu Yunfang of the Shu Family, but none others came to mind.

Seeing that the others hadn’t understood, Old Master Ding directly pointed to Yiyi.

”What...”
