Chapter 282 Kneeling and Apologizing
Chapter 282 Kneeling and Apologizing
"Dad, Mom, I have something to take care of, I have to go now." Yun Yun stood up at this moment, preparing to leave.
Ji Ziyang's purpose in coming here was twofold: first, to visit Yun Yun in the hospital; and second, to use the excuse of visiting Yun Yun to get to know him better. Yun Yun's face was practically tailor-made to her liking. These past few days, every time she closed her eyes, she dreamed of Yun Yun's abstinent yet alluring face. But just when she finally found an opportunity, Yun Yun was leaving again, and she couldn't help but show a hint of disappointment.
Yunzhi took in Ji Ziyang's behavior. Her lips twitched slightly. Ji Ziyang was really stubborn. She was genuinely attracted to her older brother Chunluan.
Both Yun's parents were shrewd and immediately noticed the unusual relationship between their son and the girl from the Ji family. They exchanged a glance, and then Yun's father coughed lightly and called out to Yun Yun, who was about to leave.
“The guests have just arrived, and you’re already leaving? What kind of behavior is that? Put your work aside for now. I’ll help you with those emails later. Now come and sit down.”
Yun Yun, “…” What do you mean by taking over those emails later? If I remember correctly, those emails were originally my father’s job. He was just unlucky enough to be conscripted into it.
Yun Yun didn't believe that his father, who had just been faking illness to avoid work, would suddenly have a change of heart. But when he saw his mother looking at Ji Ziyang with a gossipy and impatient gaze, he finally understood that his parents were just amusing him.
He took a deep breath and glanced at Ji Ziyang with displeasure. He thought he had made his intentions clear enough that Ji Ziyang wouldn't have come over if she had any sense. Last time at the bar, if Yun Yun hadn't been mindful of how he had inadvertently ruined Old Master Ji's birthday banquet, Ji Ziyang wouldn't have even blinked an eye, let alone gotten drunk, even if she died right in front of him.
Yun Yun's piercing gaze sent a shiver down Ji Ziyang's spine. She suppressed her disappointment and looked up at Yun's parents with a polite smile.
"Uncle and Aunt, my brother and I are here to visit Zhizhi. We are not guests at all. Young Master Yun, please don't worry about my brother and me. Just go and do what you need to do."
Yun Yun glanced at Ji Ziyang with some surprise, but remained expressionless. Ji Chen, who was standing to the side, was also very unhappy to see his usually decisive and ruthless eldest sister being disliked by Yun Yun like this. It was one thing for him to complain about his eldest sister in his heart, but it was another thing to see her so humble.
Their only goal was to cultivate a good relationship with the Yun family so that it would be easier to discuss cooperation later; nothing more.
"Yes, Young Master Yun, you should go ahead and get busy," Ji Chen chimed in with a forced smile.
The atmosphere was somewhat tense.
Upon hearing this, Yun Yun glanced at his parents. Although they didn't speak, they both understood what their son meant. He was silently saying that since the guests had said so, he would leave.
Before Yun's parents could say anything, Yun Yun nodded and signaled to leave.
"This child, really." Yunmu shook her head helplessly, then looked up at Ji Ziyang and the other person, and said with an embarrassed expression, "Our Yun'er has been too busy lately. All the work in the company has been on his shoulders. He hasn't had a good night's sleep for three days. I hope you two can understand."
Ji Ziyang and Ji Chen both expressed their understanding.
Although Ji Ziyang was somewhat disappointed that Yun Yun was so resistant to her, she had a good attitude and quickly put her disappointment behind her.
Ji Ziyang was naturally talkative, and with her good personality, it didn't take long for Yun's parents to change their way of addressing her from Miss Ji to Little Ji, and finally to Yang'er. The three of them were so close that it was as if they were a family.
Compared to Ji Ziyang, Yunzhi and Ji Chen were like background figures. When their eyes met, they both saw bitterness in each other's eyes.
Just as Ji Ziyang and Yun's parents were having a long and fruitful conversation, a figure staggered open the door, attracting everyone's attention. Yun Zhi and the others looked up and saw a man who looked like a round ball rushing in.
It took the man a while to regain his balance. He looked around and when he saw Yunzhi, it was like seeing a lifeline. He rushed over in three steps and, under everyone's wary gaze, he knelt down with a thud, right in front of Yunzhi.
Yunzhi's expression changed. "What are you doing?"
“Miss Yun, it is my fault for not educating Bai Weiwei properly, which led her to commit such a terrible disaster. I apologize to you on behalf of Bai Weiwei. Miss Yun, I hope you will be magnanimous and forgive my mistake. Please don’t hold it against the Bai family, considering that the debt is settled after death.” As the man spoke, he raised his hand and slapped himself repeatedly, as if he would not stop until Yun Zhi spoke.
Yunzhi recognized the man the moment he entered—Bai Weiwei's father. To be honest, this matter didn't really involve the Bai family that much, but Bai Weiwei's father, and indeed the entire Bai family, were quite unlucky.
Bai Weiwei's father was unaware that Bai Weiwei had purchased illegal drugs to embarrass Yunzhi in front of so many people at Grandpa Ji's birthday banquet. After investigating the truth, he realized that Bai Weiwei could no longer bring him any benefit and might even bring him misfortune. So, he immediately severed his father-daughter relationship with Bai Weiwei to avoid being implicated by her.
However, this car accident happened because Bai Weiwei was already dead. Yun's parents couldn't get revenge on Bai Weiwei, the culprit, so they resorted to taking revenge on Bai's father instead.
During this period, Bai's father went out to negotiate business deals, but one deal after another fell through. Even his old clients were willing to pay penalties to terminate their contracts with their company. Bai's father was completely confused. Later, a friend who was very familiar with them subtly reminded him to apologize to the Yun family. Only then did he realize that the Yun family was involved in this matter.
At first, Bai's father thought the reason the Yun family was targeting him was because Bai Weiwei had tried to drug Yun Zhi at Old Master Ji's birthday banquet, making him lose face. He also thought the Yun family was petty. Even though so much time had passed and he had already kicked Bai Weiwei out of the house and severed ties, the Yun family was still holding on to it.
But after investigating, he learned that Bai Weiwei had caused him a huge problem before she died. Who gave Bai Weiwei the courage to drive her car into Miss Yun and President Cheng's car on the street, even sending them to the hospital? If it weren't for Young Master Yun, the two would have lost their lives.
When Bai's father learned of this, he was so angry that he fainted. He didn't wake up until the next day.
