Chapter 304: I Lied
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Yayan’s heart skipped a beat. She was secretly glad that her grandfather had foresight.
When she had decided to give the seeds to the research institute, the old man had been worried about her situation, so he had generously arranged an empty shell company for her.
On the surface, it was said that Su Yayan was involved in various studies in the field of animals and plants. Su Yayan’s Chinese medicine ingredients were discovered by chance.
Of course, this shell company was just a fake name to trick some people. They would know what they needed to know.
It was just a game between the upper echelons, and most of them only cared about benefits. A tacit understanding was within a certain threshold, and no one could cross that threshold.
“That seed was the result of a research project by an external company that belonged to Grandpa. It started a year ago. However, I was the one who provided the idea.”
Su Yayan glanced at her brother and snorted. She pretended to be angry. “If you don’t believe me, you can ask Grandpa.”
Su Yuxuan looked embarrassed. “Alright, alright. It’s not that I don’t trust you. I’m just worried that you’ll be cheated.”
Su Yayan raised her eyebrows and sneered. “Deceived? Are you saying that Grandpa lied to me?”
“No, no, I never meant that.”
Su Yuxuan didn’t have as much conviction as his sister in front of Old Master Cheng. Like his cousins, he was a little afraid of this head of the family.
Now that Su Yayan brought Old Master Cheng out, he had no choice but to beg for mercy.
“It’s my fault. I said the wrong thing. Good sister, please don’t tell Grandpa that.”
“Now you are afraid.” Su Yayan crossed her arms and turned her head away smugly. The two of them could not see the relief on her face.
The problem of abilities was temporarily solved by her, but Ye Qiliang’s matter was still a big problem.
“What do you plan to do about what that old professor said?”
Su Yayan shook her head in frustration. “I don’t know.”
Su Yuxuan, who knew that his sister was soft-hearted and could not stand to be begged, frowned and reminded her, “If you don’t want to, just reject it. It’s no big deal. The knowledge is in your hands, so it’s yours. You have the right to decide whether to teach them or not.”
The familiar concern and protection made Su Yayan relax a little. She smiled and said, “I know. I’ll think it through.”
“Your grandfather and I have to go back tomorrow. I’ll leave Xueru and the child to you.” Cheng Junhao wanted to stay longer, but he had a lot of things to deal with at home, so he could not afford to delay.
“Uncle, don’t worry. Mom and I will take good care of Aunt and my future cousin.”
“Mm.”
After dealing with the two of them carefully, Su Yayan did not reveal any flaws. The two of them had just left when she collapsed on the chair as if she had just fought a huge battle.
After catching her breath, she immediately contacted her grandfather, who she had dragged down with her.
“Grandpa…” Su Yayan called him ‘Grandpa’ the moment the call connected. Her words seemed to be stuck in her throat.
“Yes, did Old Master Ye go to find you?” Old Master Cheng seemed to hear that something was wrong with her voice and asked with concern, “Did he bully you?”
“No.” Su Yayan listened to his voice, and her emotions were complicated.. Her throat moved a few times before she said in a hoarse voice, “I lied to my brother and uncle.”
