Chapter 456: Losing Face
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Thank you for your kindness, Grandpa Yang.” Shan Yue waved her hand.
“Although I’m not as busy as President Zhou, I’ve been in the hospital for a long time. I still have some things to deal with at school and the company, so I can’t stay any longer. If there’s a chance, well talk next time.”
“That’s good.” Yang Ning pushed Yang Shuo forward. “Shuoshuo, you have to send Miss Shan safely, whether it’s the school or the company.”
At first, Yang Shuo did not know what it meant to be pushed, but as soon as he said this, he immediately reacted. “Miss Shan, the hospital in the city center is not close to anywhere. I’ll drive you back. This way, we can save some time on the way.”
Zhou Xuan, who was at the side, was instantly unhappy. No matter what, he would never let the Yang family send Shan Yue.
“Young Master Yang, you don’t have to worry about this. Since Miss Shan came to the hospital to visit me, I should be the one to send her away. I appreciate this kindness on Miss Shan’s behalf, but you should stay here and accompany President Yang more.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Yang Ning immediately said, “I’m fine. I’m tired today. I’ll rest early later. It’s redundant for Shuoshuo to stay with me. Why don’t we let him go home after sending Miss Shan away?”
“Since Grandpa has spoken, 1 definitely can’t disobey.” Yang Shuo agreed with Yang Ning. “Doesn’t President Zhou still have a meeting? Wouldn’t it be a waste of time if you go?”
Zhou Xuan raised his thin lips. “Young Master Yang, you can rest assured about this. I know of a shortcut that will greatly save time on the road. It won’t delay the subsequent meetings at all.”
Yang Shuo’s lips curled into a mocking smile. “But President Zhou, you’re the boss. It’s an important moment in the company’s meeting. How can the boss take the risk of not attending the meeting because of such a thing? Is this how the Zhou Corporation led by President Zhou is? That’s really shocking.”
“Young Master Yang, you might not know, but I have a habit of doing things in advance. For example, if I have a meeting, I’ll set the alarm half an hour or even an hour in advance.”
There was no intention of giving in in Zhou Xuan’s words at all. He gradually began to take the initiative. “I believe a smart person like Young Master Yang will definitely understand what I mean. A meeting is a meeting, but it won’t affect me sending Miss Shan back at all.”
Seeing that this method wouldn’t work, Yang Shuo immediately changed the direction of his attack.
“Miss Shan is in my grandfather’s ward now, so I should be the one sending her back.” Yang Shuo thought of all the reasons he could think of, but he refused to let go of this opportunity. “I know that President Zhou has his own difficulties, but aren’t we the same? If this matter gets out, I’m afraid the people outside will misunderstand our Yang family’s hospitality.”
Immediately after, Yang Ning added, “Don’t argue. As an elder in this ward, the three of you are juniors, so everyone listens to me. President Zhou will go for his meeting, and Yang Shuo will send her off. This way, no one will be delayed.”
“That’s impossible. President Yang, as an elder, I should respect you, but I’m afraid I can’t do as you wish for such personal matters.”
Zhou Xuan still had no intention of retreating in the face of such a scene. As long as Shan Yue was by his side, he had the courage to face all difficulties.
It was impossible for him to choose to give up on Shan Yue now.
Zhou Xuan would rather not attend the meeting today than let Yang Shuo get the chance to send Shan Yue away.
The environment that had just calmed down was now in conflict over a small matter like who was sending Shan Yue back. They were arguing again.
At this moment, Zhou Xuan and Yang Shuo were like little wives fighting for favor. They did their best to please Shan Yue and leave a deep impression on her so that they could lay the foundation for future contact.
However, the current argument between the two was not Shan Yue’s favorite. If this continued, Shan Yue would feel tired.
“Alright, you don’t have to fight anymore.” Shan Yue knew that even if the two of them were given another ten minutes, they would only be able to say a few words. They would not be able to reach a definite conclusion.
“President Zhou will go back to the ward for a meeting to deal with the company’s matters. Young Master Yang, stay here and accompany your grandpa. You don’t have to send me back. I have other things to do on the way, so I can go back by myself. There’s no need to trouble everyone..”
