Meng Jiao nodded, "I remember, grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely return to Tianhai as promised after I finish handling the matters here."
"Within half a year, I will not return to Tianzhou, and I will no longer pay attention to anyone or anything here."
Grandpa Meng waved his hand, "Grandpa has changed his mind. Grandpa, I believe you are a good and measured boy."
"Grandpa doesn't understand emotional matters, so he won't stop you any more, as long as you have no complaints or regrets."
"You just need to remember that the Tianhai Meng family will always be your home. As long as you want to go back, grandpa will be waiting for you at any time."
"But grandpa doesn't want to turn the Meng family into a prison for you."
"So, the agreement between us is that Grandpa has never said it."
"From now on, you are free to live or leave, and grandpa will no longer interfere!"
Meng Jiao was a little surprised. She didn't expect grandpa to say such words, "Grandpa..."
Grandpa Meng waved his hand, "Okay, let's not talk about this."
"You can make arrangements for us to have a meal together as a family tonight."
"I will return with your uncle tomorrow..."
The other side.
Meng Zhenyan, who was waiting in the living room, seemed to have guessed his father's decision. He did not go in to stop him, but waited silently outside.
Just then, there was a knock on the door outside.
When I opened the door, I saw Sophie and Zhao Dong coming.
Sophie was carrying a lot of gifts and nutritional supplements in her hands. It was obvious that the two of them were here to visit.
In fact, Meng Zhenyan doesn't have much dislike for Sophie. The reason why he has such great hostility is because he loves Wujiwu.
The Meng family has owed Meng Jiao these years, but it was because of emotional problems that Meng Jiao suffered so much in Tianzhou.
Seeing Meng Jiao's situation, Meng Zhenxi acted more biasedly.
In fact, Meng Zhenyan also knew that Meng Jiao's current situation had nothing to do with Sophie.
After all, when it comes to emotional issues between men and women, there is no question of who is right or who is wrong.
Now that Sophie has married Zhao Dong, Meng Jiao should no longer be around Zhao Dong.
But Meng Jiao became obsessed with this relationship, even though she knew it was a moth attracted to a flame, she still had no hesitation.
After several attempts, he could not stop Meng Jiao's foolish behavior, so he vented his anger on Sophie and Zhao Dong.
Now, seeing Sophie coming to visit, most of the resentment in Meng Zhenyan's heart has dissipated.
However, he still had no intention of letting the two of them in.
It’s not that she is stingy, but that she doesn’t want Meng Jiao to have anything to do with Zhao Dong anymore!
Therefore, before the two of them could speak, Meng Zhenyan declined politely, "Why are you still here?"
"The operation is over. The Meng family has no use value to you. Please come back!"
"If you're here to say thank you, you don't have to."
"The Meng family is a medical family. It is our duty to save lives and heal the wounded. It has nothing to do with the identity of the patient!"
Sophie did not speak, but bent down to Meng Zhenyan and bowed deeply!
"I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. I have said before that no matter the success or failure of this operation, the life-saving grace of the Meng family will be attributed to me, Sophie."
"Su Qing is my sister. Since I asked for this favor, it's up to me, Sophie, to repay it."
"Talk about money is too tacky, and it also tarnishes Mr. Meng's medical style and medical integrity."
"I, Sophie, owe the Meng family my life!"
"From now on, as long as it is a matter of the Meng family, we will respond to all requests!"
Meng Zhenyan didn't say anything, but Sophie had no intention of getting up!
This time, it was Meng Zhenyan's turn to be surprised.
During the several meetings, he repeatedly made things difficult for her and never gave Sophie any good looks.
But this woman is like a deep pool of water with no bottom visible.
No matter what methods he uses, even in the face of his difficulties, accusations, and unreasonableness, nothing can cause the slightest ripple.
After a while, Meng Zhenyan was finally defeated, "Get up!"
"My father performed the surgery. I can't afford your courtesy. Come in and tell me if you have anything to say!"
Turning around, Meng Zhenyan entered the house.
The door was open, so it didn't mean he really accepted the two people's visit.
Instead, he stretched out his hand so as not to hit the smiling person. Since the other person was sincere and came to visit him, it would be too stingy for him to refuse the person thousands of miles away.
"I'm going to tell my father, please wait a moment."
After a while, Meng Zhenyan walked out of the room, along with Meng Jiao.
Meng Zhenyan said, "Miss Su, my father invites you in."
Sophie did not let Zhao Dong follow her, and strode forward alone.
When passing by Meng Jiao, she nodded slightly and then went straight into the house.
In the room, Meng Zhenyan was unwilling to stay for a long time.
He simply left a rare space for the two of them to be alone, "Jiaojiao, I'm going to take care of the return trip tomorrow, and you can entertain Mr. Zhao for me."
Soon, only Zhao Dong and Meng Jiao were left in the room.
As Zhao Dong took his seat, Meng Jiao handed him a cup of tea.
Zhao Dong remained silent, and the atmosphere became a little strange for a moment.
Meng Jiao smiled, "Why don't you dare to talk to me? Is it because Sophie is inside?"
"Zhao Dong, if you can really calm your heart, why can't you get along with me like a normal friend?"
"Don't you realize that the more you deliberately avoid it, the more guilty you feel?"
"What are you afraid of? How can I fight with Sophie in front of my grandfather?"
Zhao Dong still didn't speak.
Meng Jiao thought to herself and said, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore."
"You are still the same as before, you can't tell a joke from a joke or what's on your mind!"
Without waiting for Zhao Dong to respond, she shared her joy like a friend, "By the way, let me tell you something, I passed the microphone test."
"A great work, written and composed by one of my favorite teachers."
"I believe that as long as I work hard, I will be able to make a name for myself in the music industry with this song, and I will be able to realize my dream!"
"Of course, I have to thank Sophie for getting this opportunity."
"So, Sophie doesn't owe me anything, and you don't have to feel like you owe anything."
"In addition, after the recording of this song is completed, I will leave Tianzhou in a few days."
The sudden parting tone made Zhao Dong ask out of nowhere, "Where are you going?"
Meng Jiao turned around and said, "Go back to Tianhai, go back to the Meng family."
"Otherwise, there will always be people who think that I stay in Tianzhou just to hang around you."
"If you take Sophie back to Tianhai in the future, you can visit me on the way."
"Let me do my part as a landlord and treat you to a meal."
"Of course, if you find it inconvenient, forget it."
"Okay, I've made an appointment with Sister Tong and I'm leaving first. Please take care of yourself."
Before leaving, Meng Jiao stood up and said, "Zhao Dong, can you shake your hand?"
Seeing Zhao Dong's hesitation, she added, "Like friends."
Zhao Dong stood up and stretched out his hand.
After a brief touch, Meng Jiao took the lead in withdrawing her palm and said, "Goodbye!"
Although her face was calm, Meng Jiao bit her lips tightly the moment she closed the door.
I tried letting go, but it was really difficult...
