Chapter 241 - 331: Knowing When to Advance or Retreat
Old Sir Zhong’s words and attitude immediately extinguished Zheng Yun’s hopes.
She couldn’t help but look at the people around her. Just now, they were mocking Wan Chu’er, but now all those looks were directed at her. Indeed, the world is cold and fickle.
However, Zheng Yun was always good at assessing situations and immediately chose a remedial approach, sincerely saying to Old Sir Zhong:
"I’m sorry, Grandpa Zhong. I was wrong. I didn’t listen to you.
I won’t do it again in the future. I’ll listen to you from now on. Please, for the sake of my father, don’t abandon me, all right?"
She absolutely couldn’t sever ties with Old Sir Zhong. The main reason she was able to come here was that everyone was giving face to Old Sir Zhong.
If people found out she had fallen out with Old Sir Zhong, she couldn’t and didn’t dare to imagine the consequences.
Zheng Yun’s father was one reason Old Sir Zhong always took care of Zheng Yun and her mother. The old man always respected soldiers who sacrificed for the country.
Previously, whenever her mother mentioned this, Old Sir Zhong’s heart would soften.
But this time, Zheng Yun miscalculated. Old Sir Zhong said, "If you behave properly and stop playing these minor tricks, that’ll be honoring your father."
