227 Spread Out And Say
Logically speaking, since they were meeting for the first time today, it was a little inappropriate for him to ask such a question. However, Zhai Jing knew that Elder Le was testing him, so he wasn’t angry. Instead, he replied seriously,
“I’m still young, so my main task is to study. Working at Dahong Corporation is mainly to earn money and solve my current living difficulties.”
Zhai Jing didn’t shy away from showing off his true family background in front of the Le family.
“As for the future arrangements, I want to apply for Capital University, just like Le Wan. Because of my mother’s current health, I don’t feel at ease leaving her alone at home, so she’ll come with me to the capital. Fortunately, my finances are not so tight now, so I can still afford these expenses.”
After hearing this, the old man was quite satisfied. At such a young age, he had already made a career. He was also able to return to school to continue his studies without being arrogant or impetuous, and not letting a momentary victory get to his head. This was already commendable.
Moreover, he didn’t avoid his own difficulties and had a plan in his heart. This also showed that he was a person with his own opinions and responsibilities.
However, although the old man was satisfied, he didn’t show it on his face. He only nodded slightly.
“As long as you have an idea.”
However, for those who understood the way Old Master Le usually handled things, they could roughly guess his attitude when he didn’t raise any objections.
Le Yan was anxious and quickly said,
“Grandpa, Anan fell by accident just now. I think she scratched her knee. Should we get a doctor to treat her?”
The two elders frowned when they heard this.
“Why did she suddenly fall at home?”
Second Uncle Le and the rest also got anxious when they heard this.
“Was it a serious fall?”
“We have to ask Zhai Jing about this. When Anan fell just now, he was the only one beside her,” Le Yan reminded her loudly.
Second Uncle Le and Second Aunt Le knew what Le An was going to do today, so when they heard this, they looked at each other and saw Le An’s ugly expression. They guessed that the plan didn’t go smoothly, so they kept quiet and didn’t dare to speak again.
Grandpa Le and Grandma Le had more or less noticed the strangeness of the few of them. They knew that it was possible that the second branch was restless and had caused trouble again. They wanted to smooth things over, but Le Wan disagreed.
“To be honest, I’m also very curious. How did Anan suddenly fall and even involve Zhai Jing? If we don’t make things clear, some bad things will likely spread.” She walked over to the two elders and said,
“So I decided to ask uncle Wang for the surveillance camera so that we can see everything clearly.”
Le An said anxiously,
“Sister, there’s no need. I just didn’t see the road clearly and fell accidentally. This has nothing to do with Zhai Jing. He just happened to pass by and bumped into me.”
“Yes, it’s just a small wound. Isn’t it normal for a child to bump into something occasionally?” Second uncle and Second Aunt Le also agreed. “There’s no need to make such a big fuss over a small matter.”
Seeing that Le Yan was about to speak again, they gave her a warning look, telling her not to make trouble.
Le Yan was unwilling, but she could only shut up for the time being. But Le Wan refused to agree.
“Don’t! I’ve already brought the surveillance footage over. If I don’t watch it now, what if everyone says that I value men over my sister? I have to prove my innocence.”
Then, without caring about their objections, she directly projected the surveillance video she had just received onto the wall through her mobile phone so that everyone at the scene could see it.
When they saw Le An fall and pounce on Zhai Jing, who dodged to the side, the scene instantly fell silent. The two elderly people in particular had complicated expressions on their faces.
Just as Le Wan had guessed, Le An’s intention for suddenly falling couldn’t be hidden from the two elders.
They couldn’t understand why the three sisters were acting this way. Otherwise, why would Le Yan and Le An both have their eyes on Le Wan’s boyfriend?
Old Master Le suddenly clapped his hands.
“Good boy, you did well.”
From Old Master Le’s point of view, although Zhai Jing’s way of doing things was a little unkind, he was able to reject Le An’s advances and not be clingy with his girlfriend’s sister. In Old Master Le’s heart, this was a first-class clean way of doing things.
Especially with Fu Sui as a precedent, Zhai Jing’s actions seemed even more open and upright.
