Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 463: Chapter 277: Resolution

The ripples of light danced in her phoenix eyes which held a misty allure; skin smooth like porcelain with rosy cheeks and a delicate figure defined under her spring and autumn robes—a mesmerizing and stunning beauty she was!

Carefully observing the sprightly granddaughter descending the stairs, Grandma deliberately sighed, ”My precious granddaughter, I won’t let her be easily taken advantage of by that Ye Family boy!”

”Grandma, I fully support your decision. Make sure to give him a hard time when it comes to it!” Luo Ye smiled sweetly, her dimples spreading like ripples on water.

As she was massaging Grandma’s shoulders, Nanny Zhang couldn’t help but interject, ”Miss Ye’er, you look just like a beloved beauty from the paintings.”

”Zhang...” Luo Ye coyly covered her face, ”It’s embarrassing to be praised like this.”

”This girl.” Grandma chuckled and shook her head, glancing at the time her eyes betrayed a sense of reluctance, ”Ye’er, don’t you want to spend some time with your classmates?”

”No need, it’s been over two months since I last saw Grandma and Grandpa. They would understand, and with Little Pumpkin here, everyone will feel at ease. Whether I’m here or not doesn’t really matter.” Luo Ye snuggled up to Grandma, ”Unless Grandma wants to send me away.”

”Grandma couldn’t wait to have Ye’er by her side every day.” Grandma stroked her granddaughter’s rosy cheeks, ”My girl, with your mother’s example, Grandma and Grandpa don’t want to interfere too much, but we won’t hold back when we need to fight for you.

Not long ago your uncle heard someone say that the Yu Family was going to the Ye Family again to propose a marriage. If the Ye Family’s elders don’t show their clear stance, Grandma and Grandpa won’t accept it. Our Wen Family’s children cannot be bullied.”

”Grandma, there’s no rush. We’ll see whether the Ye Family’s elders are sincere or not. Don’t worry, I won’t let anyone bully your granddaughter.

If others slap us, we not only don’t swallow our anger quietly but also strike back twice as hard. I’ll go greet Grandpa first and then I’ll come back to keep you company.” Luo Ye stood up and kissed Grandma on the forehead: ”Taking advantage of Grandma...”

Grandma watched as her granddaughter’s figure disappeared down the corridor, reluctantly withdrawing her gaze, she grabbed Zhang’s hand kneading her shoulder, ”Come, sit with me for a while.”

”Madam, Miss Ye’er’s nature is truly endearing; you haven’t stopped smiling since she arrived,” Zhang stopped her movement and poured tea for Grandma.

”Yes, this child is more pleasing than her mother. If Xiao Xin had the temperament of Ye’er, she wouldn’t have broken off from the family for twenty years,” Grandma said, her smile fading.

Zhang consoled her, ”The young mistress is very happy now, Madam should be happy too.”

”Yes.” Grandma replied, looking at Zhang, ”You’ve been with me for many years, it’s time you enjoyed some peace. After New Year’s, you should stop managing things around me.”

”Madam, you can’t send me away; I want to accompany you for life,” Zhang grabbed Grandma’s wrist. ”I promised Grandpa years ago that I’d always look after you.”

Hong Ying, from this point onwards, others should be serving you,” Grandma said affectionately. ”At this age, I really can’t allow you to keep toiling. You’re someone who can’t sit still; I’ve told you so many times, just supervise them. But you just never feel assured...”

Not to mention Grandma and Zhang talking endlessly, meanwhile, Luo Ye had knocked and entered Grandpa Wen’s study, offering a salute, ”Grandpa, Ye’er is here to see you!”

”My girl, looking quite the part,” Grandpa inspected his granddaughter with a face full of approval.

Luo Ye smiled proudly, ”Of course, Grandpa, I’ve even been awarded a First-class Merit. How is it, didn’t I maintain your honor?”

”Really?” Grandpa suddenly stood up, ”Ye’er, you weren’t hurt, were you?”

”Not at all...” Luo Ye stretched her arms and legs, ”Look, I’m in great shape. I could even go tiger hunting without a problem.”

Wen Tong eagerly stared at Luo Ye, ”Getting a First-class Merit in peacetime is no small feat. Ye’er, come, tell us all about it.”

After Luo Ye briefly explained the process, Old Master Wen sighed, ”Ye’er, Grandpa won’t advise you to be a deserter, but I hope you remember, your life is not just your own.”

”Grandpa, don’t worry, I understand.” Luo Ye approached and hugged Grandpa, ”I’m so happy you care about me so much!”

”Doesn’t your uncle care about you?”

Luo Ye playfully smiled, ”Grandpa, uncle is jealous of you.” Spotting a folder on the table, she picked it up curiously, ”Why does this company name look so familiar?”

Wen Tong explained, ”This is a family business from the United States, they returned to set up a subsidiary here sixteen years ago, though their main business is still overseas. Initially, we had decided to jointly produce international orders with their local branch.

Unfortunately, Liang Huarui’s negligence made them doubt our integrity, and now they refuse to cooperate with Wen Family no matter how we negotiate,” lamenting while patting his head, ”It’s my fault, making dad worry too.”

Old Master Wen waved it off, ”Alright, even without this order, Wen Family is doing well. We did all we could, and if it’s still not enough, it just shows Wen Family isn’t ready to grow again. Stop fussing over nothing.”

”I’ve remembered!” Luo Ye suddenly slapped her forehead, ”Grandpa, uncle, there might still be a way, just wait...”

Before Old Master Wen and Wen Tong could react, Luo Ye’s figure had already disappeared outside the study. Father and son exchanged glances, silently sat back down, perhaps, the girl really had a plan?

Ten minutes later, Luo Ye dragged Wu Zetian back to the study.

Wu Zetian looked bewildered. After Luo Ye found them and greeted everyone, she pulled him into the car, and up until now, he was still dizzy and hadn’t come to his senses.

A thought quickly flashed through Wen Tong’s mind, hesitatingly he asked: ”Ye’er, could it be he is...”

”During our training together, he mentioned it, I need to confirm it one more time.” Luo Ye handed Wu Zetian a folder: ”Take a look, is this company yours?”

Wu Zetian carefully looked and nodded: ”That’s right, this is the contract from the head office.”

Luo Yeshu breathed a sigh of relief and introduced: ”Grandpa, Little Uncle, this is my classmate Wu Zetian.”

”Wu Zetian?” Wen Tong widened his eyes and repeated.

”Nice to meet you, Grandpa!” Wu Zetian greeted Old Master Wen, and looking at Wen Tong said: ”Little Uncle, I am ’Ze’ from Hui Ze, not ’Ze’ as in principle, sorry for the confusion.”

Wen Tong’s eyes filled with mirth: ”Regardless of which character, both are very impressive!”

”Wu Zetian, it’s like this...”

Old Master Wen interrupted Luo Ye: ”Ye’er, Little Uncle and I have been discussing this issue. We feel that one should exert their utmost effort before giving up. Ye’er, you must not owe favors.”

”Grandpa, don’t worry, Wu Zetian isn’t a despicable person.” Luo Ye patted Wu Zetian smilingly, ”Male Emperor, you should have guessed my intention, right? Show some attitude.”

Wu Zetian put down the folder: ”It is I who owe Luoluo a favor. It’s hard for my mom and dad in China to find a trustworthy enterprise. I believe some misunderstanding has occurred, could you please explain the details?”

Luo Ye looked appreciatively at Wu Zetian: ”That’s brotherly!”

...

After dinner, Wen Family elders and Luo Ye, along with Zhan Hao, Ye Qingzhu, Zhong Yi, Xing Nong, Yaoguang, Wu Zetian, Lu Lu, and others sat in the hall chatting leisurely.

When Grandma learned that Ye Qingzhu was Ye Xuan’s sister, she eagerly held her hand, asking questions affectionately, while Wen Tong was engrossed in conversation with Wu Zetian, Zhong Yi, and Zhan Hao, Old Master Wen watched everyone with a smile, chiming in from time to time, creating a harmonious and joyful atmosphere in the hall.

It had been a long time since the house was this lively. Little Pumpkin, holding Little Mi, was so happy that the corners of his mouth almost reached his ears. After a morning spent together, Little Mi had completely accepted this brother who knew how to coax, and no longer rejected his embrace.

”Luoluo.” Xing Nong quietly poked Ye’er, lowering his voice: ”Did your Little Aunt misunderstand something, why is she so enthusiastic about the Male Emperor?”

Luo Ye lowered his voice: ”She messed up a big business deal, Male Emperor stepped in, and the contract can be signed tomorrow. Tell me, how can she not be enthusiastic? To add, the person responsible for that deal is the Male Emperor’s parents.”

The parents of Wu Zetian were absolutely indulgent towards their son, just a phone call from him without much explanation, and the couple agreed to sign the deal the next day, showing immense enthusiasm towards Old Master Wen and little uncle as well.

However, considering they donated so much military supplies for their son, this behavior seems rather normal. After ending the call, Luo Ye curiously asked Wu Zetian how his parents could bear to have him join the military academy?

He replied that joining the military academy was actually Grandpa’s idea. The old man held deep convictions about the military, even having been persecuted in the past, he remained a devoted patriot.

Seeing Little Aunt’s overly enthusiastic demeanor towards Wu Zetian, Luo Ye shook her head secretly; if she didn’t adjust her mentality, she would eventually separate from little uncle.

Sensing Luo Ye’s gaze, Liang Huarui approached her: ”Ye’er, I really owe you a big thank you, if not for you, Wen Family would have suffered a great loss.”

Luo Ye’s eyes flickered ambiguously: ”I am a member of Wen Family, just doing my duty.”

”Ye’er, I... I didn’t mean that...” Liang Huarui was terribly flustered: ”Don’t get me wrong, what I mean is, I caused this disaster, and Ye’er helped solve it, I should be thankful.”

Luo Ye raised an eyebrow, her lips curving into a meaningful smile: ”Same words, I am Wen Family.”

”Ye’er...” Liang Huarui grabbed Luo Ye, tears brimming in her eyes: ”You don’t call me Little Aunt anymore, did... did your little uncle say something?”

”Nothing!” Luo Ye shook her head: ”Little Uncle didn’t say anything, you are overthinking it, this is only the second time I see you, last time I addressed you as Aunt, it’s not easy to change suddenly, please understand.”

It’s a little late now, sorry. But finally, I’ve adjusted, will update more tomorrow.
