"Mr. Ye, how did you make that miraculous elixir?"
"One pill, and Grandpa's health improved by more than half. It's incredible!"
"Can you teach me in the future? I've always admired angels in white since I was little!"
"Grandpa was almost gone last night. If it weren't for Mr. Ye, the consequences would have been unimaginable!"
"Wang Hailin is so unreliable. I haven't been able to reach him since last night. He almost delayed picking up Mr. Ye! Hmph!"
Inside the Toyota Alphard, Wang Wenwen chattered incessantly, as if she had endless things to say to Ye Yun.
This almost made Assistant Ma, who was driving, pop his eyes out.
Wang Wenwen, don't you know you're a big star?
Don't you know you're from a military family?
Where is the modesty you learned in etiquette class?
Did it go to the dogs?
Why are you acting like a brainless fan who's never seen the world!
Listen to yourself.
"Always admired angels in white since I was little."
You believe that yourself!
You're already this old, and you turn pale with fear every time you go to the hospital.
You admire angels in white like this?
Pfft!
Assistant Ma wanted to complain a few words, but as they reached his lips, he swallowed them back.
You're the boss, you're cool, you have the final say!
"It's nothing, it's nothing, just a little help. Alas, you've said it several times already."
Facing Wang Wenwen's eagerness, even the calm Ye Yun was a little overwhelmed.
"Ah, have I said it? Then I won't say it!"
Wang Wenwen blushed and finally fell silent, only occasionally glancing at Ye Yun out of the corner of her eye.
Why is Mr. Ye so handsome!
For some reason, seeing Ye Yun's profile, Wang Wenwen couldn't help but recall the scene of kissing Ye Yun that night.
Her cheeks immediately turned crimson.
So embarrassing!
However, this shy scene didn't last long.
Soon, the Alphard stopped outside the Wang family's residence.
Ye Yun also got out of the car with Wang Wenwen.
Being reborn, this was Ye Yun's first time visiting the Wang family's house.
In his later life, after he became rich, the Wang family had long since declined.
And this retirement house that Wang Weiguo was allocated by the local government would have long been demolished, no longer glorious as it once was.
Ye Yun looked around.
There was no hint of luxury.
But the location itself spoke of opulence.
A two-story detached house in the core area of Jinling City's Xin Street.
A place worth its weight in gold, yet here was a quiet and peaceful paradise.
The yard was surrounded by neatly arranged potted plants and trees.
The guards at the entrance immediately stopped Ye Yun and the two. Even Wang Wenwen, as Elder Wang's granddaughter, did not escape this fate.
In the courtyard, there were pavilions and water features, and in the self-made spring, several koi fish swam happily.
What was jarringly out of place was that by this spring, neatly arranged chives sprouts were planted.
Just the chives, occupying about two square meters, would cost at least three hundred thousand yuan at Xin Street's property prices!
If an outsider saw this, they would only lament the waste of resources.
However, here, there was no sense of incongruity.
It was because under the old locust tree in the center of the courtyard, an upright old man was sitting and calmly drinking tea.
"Grandpa, Mr. Ye has arrived."
Seeing the old man, Wang Wenwen exclaimed with joy, completely abandoning her image as a maiden in the public eye.
"Good, good, young friend Ye, you've finally come! I must thank you for saving my life!"
Seeing the two arrive, Wang Weiguo quickly stood up to welcome them and extended his hand to Ye Yun.
His demeanor showed no trace of his former immense power, only gratitude towards Ye Yun.
Ye Yun clasped his hand and smiled.
"Elder Wang, you are too kind. You have served the country and the people your entire life. This is what I should do."
Wang Weiguo laughed heartily and generously gestured to the old locust tree.
"Young friend Ye, I've prepared tea. Shall we sit down and chat over a cup?"
"No problem."
Ye Yun, with great composure, sat down with the elder under the old locust tree.
As soon as they were seated, Wang Weiguo glanced at Wang Wenwen.
"No, why are you still here? Aren't you, a big star, busy all day?"
"Grandpa, you want to get rid of me? Don't think I don't know what you want to discuss with Mr. Ye!"
"Hmph! I'm telling you, giving away the licorice elixir for free is a pipe dream!"
Wang Wenwen put her hands on her hips and glared back.
She wasn't stupid.
She had witnessed the miraculous efficacy of the licorice elixir last night.
And today, her grandfather immediately wanted to talk to Ye Yun.
Thanking him for saving his life?
Yes, but that was definitely not all.
Knowing her grandfather very well, Wang Wenwen was certain.
Her grandfather must have wanted Mr. Ye to contribute the licorice elixir.
This way, resources could be maximized!
Hmph, a pipe dream!
"Even if I were shameless, I wouldn't let young friend Ye suffer such a great loss. Don't worry, young friend Ye is my savior, and I have some self-respect. Alright, you can leave now. I'll have a private chat with young friend Ye." Wang Weiguo said.
"I said I'm not leaving, so I'm not leaving!" However, Wang Wenwen didn't budge.
Uh.
Wang Weiguo's face showed a hint of awkwardness.
They say daughters are like little cotton-padded jackets to their fathers.
This granddaughter was even more so, a truly heartwarming cotton-padded jacket.
He couldn't bear to hit her, and even less to scold her.
For a moment, the cunning Elder Wang didn't know how to persuade her.
It was like a scholar encountering a soldier, a feeling of helplessness.
"Wenwen, it's fine. Elder Wang just wants to chat with me for a while. You can leave first."
At this moment, Ye Yun persuaded.
"Hmph, Grandpa, if Mr. Ye says so, I won't leave! Otherwise, I absolutely won't!"
Seeing Ye Yun speak, Wang Wenwen glared at Wang Weiguo and said fiercely.
Then she turned to Ye Yun, her attitude changing one hundred and eighty degrees. "Mr. Ye, don't worry, I'll be nearby. If you're unhappy later, just call me, and I'll pluck out Grandpa's beard!"
Although she was curious what Ye Yun and her grandfather would discuss.
But having said that, Wang Wenwen naturally wouldn't stay.
However, the implied threat in her words was obvious even to a fool.
As the door of the Alphard closed with a bang, Wang Wenwen left the scene.
Wang Weiguo, under the old locust tree, stood up and poured Ye Yun a pot of tea.
"Last time I had a cup of tea at your place, and today I'll let young friend Ye taste my treasured collection. I picked these myself from the outskirts of Jinling. They're fresh from the mountain."
"Thank you, Elder Wang." Ye Yun smiled and cupped the cup, consuming it like a bull chewing on peonies, not showcasing his mastery of tea ceremony.
Wang Weiguo was a shrewd man.
Ye Yun could claim to have talent in business and medicine.
But if he also claimed to dabble in tea ceremony, at his age, it would be too far-fetched.
Hiding one's abilities was sometimes more beneficial for self-protection.
If Elder Wang discovered his rebirth,
He didn't want to be dragged away by some organization for dissection and research.
After drinking the tea, Ye Yun got straight to the point.
"Elder Wang, Wenwen kept emphasizing on the way that you wanted to see me. If it's just polite thanks, then let's skip it."
"If you have anything you want to know, just ask. I will tell you everything without reservation."
"Good, young friend Ye is straightforward, and I won't be polite either. Indeed, I have a few questions I'm curious about and want to ask you."
"The kid Hailin said that you gave him the medicine last night. Did you predict that I would get sick?"
Fortune-telling, Wang Weiguo, who came from a military background, naturally didn't believe in.
