CHAPTER 427
After being assured by grandma Bai about the shares, Bai Ming could not smile as the old woman wanted. And just like that, they watched grandma Bai's favourite TV series, and are lunch together.
Bai Ming checked her watch to see that it was already a few minutes to two in the afternoon. She then decided to leave because she did not want to meet grandpa Bai at all.
"Okay, grandma. I should get going now. I have a meeting in thirty minutes," she said.
"Oh! I wished you could stay longer. I love having you around, my dear," grandma Bai patted her hands.
"I would have also loved to stay longer too but... Sigh. I will try to visit you often when my schedule is free. Is that alright with you grandma?"
"Yes, my dear. Let me escort you to the door."
As soon as the two ladies stood up to leave, the door pushed open and in came grandpa Bai.
"Hah!, Honey, I had fun today. You should..." He paused as he turned to see not only his wife but a young lady beside her.
"Good afternoon, grandpa," Bai Ming greeted with a nervous smile.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Hmm. Why are you here?" Grandpa Bai questioned with an unpleasant voice.
It was obvious that he did not like that she was in his home. His gaze held no warmth in them and this made Bai Ming grit her teeth.
"Honey!" Grandma Bai was shocked. "Your granddaughter is here to visit us and you are asking why? Don't be rude to the poor child."
"Don't scold grandpa. He must just be tired from his outing," Bai Ming shook her head at grandma Bai. Then she looked back to grandpa Bai, "I am glad I saw you before I left. I will be going now."
Bai Ming took her coat and purse from the hanger and table they kept on. "Grandma, thank you for agreeing to help me. I will see you when I see you. Bye."
"You are welcome, my dear. Bye," grandma Bai smiled and waved back.
As soon as Bai Ming was gone and closed the door, grandma Bai's smile dropped instantly. She turned to glare at her husband who had a nonchalant gaze fixed back on her.
"What was the meaning of that, Muyang?" She questioned with a firm voice.
"I should be the one asking you that, Fenhua," grandpa Bai took off his coat and shoes, wore his house slipper and left to go to his room.
Grandma Bai followed him. "I asked that question first. Also, why are you so cold towards that sweet child?"
"You can't expect me to be all jolly and warm and loving to a child that came fr a woman that wrecked my son's happy married life," answered grandpa Bai.
"Gasp. How could you say something like that without any remorse?" Grandma Bai quickly locked their bedroom door as they got in.
"How can I not say such a thing without any remorse? That woman had no remorse when she ruined my son's home."
"Oh, stop it. Stop this nonsense. Jiang Meilin ruined her own marriage. She cheated on our son first," grandma Bai shouted.
"That does not give him the right to do the same. Besides, I bet it was Guiren who cheated first," grandpa Bai stated.
"What? Where did this come out from?"
"Oh, well maybe it came from how Renxiang and that spawn from that woman are just a month apart in age. Have you not thought of it?" He asked.
"Well, that's because she cheated. She was just after our money."
"Now you should stop it. I can't believe you. What money? Have you forgotten that without Jiang Meilin, the company from which 'the money' come would have long been gone," grandpa Bai said?
"Yeah, whatever. And yet you spend the money going on vacations," grandma Bai's words were sarcastic.
"You know what? Forget about that, okay. I agree that I am guilty of using the money. But I will not warm up to the child of a home wrecker," grandpa Bai declared.
"Muyang!"
"What? Don't give me that face. This is not the first or tenth time were are discussing this issue," gr let out a sharp breath before sitting at the edge of the bed. "Now why don' you tell me why that girl was here, huh?"
"I can't believe you. She came to visit," grandma Bai rolled her eyes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Oh! So after a very long time... Almost months, she remembers that she has a grandmother here," he scoffed.
"Stop seeing bad things in everything that child does. Mingming has been busy. Did you not see the achievements Bai Jewelries has reached because of that fashion show?"
Grandpa Bai shook his head. "Yeah right. And Renxiang was not always busy yet she still visits more often that that spawn."
"Muyang!" Grandma Bai called him a name in a warning time.
"What did she mean by what she said? Something about you agreeing to help her... What are you helping her with?" He ignored her warning.
"It is nothing serious. She is just having a problem at the company, that's all," grandma Bai shrugged.
"And she came to cry to you? Who does not have hard times or problems at their place of work?"
"It is not like that. Hers is different. It is a matter of shares that she needs," grandma Bai blurted out.
"Shares? What do you mean by a matter of shares? Is she talking about shares of the company?" Grandpa Bai abruptly sat up from his lying position.
Grandma Bai sighed. She would have known that he would behave like this if she were to tell him.
'I should have kept this a secret from him,' she mused in her head.
"Answer me, Fenhua. Why would she need shares? For what?" He asked.
"Stop getting angry already. She just needs them to have the advantage of becoming a potential CEO candidate."
