Reborn at Boot Camp: General, Don’t Mess Around! Chapter 1159 - What Are You

Chapter 1159: What Are You

She said ‘my mom’ and not ‘your grandmother’. Princ.i.p.al Cao’s gaze flickered slightly. From one sentence, he could tell that their relations.h.i.+p was very bad. Ye Jian’s relatives didn’t treat her like family.

No wonder Old Chen didn’t say any good words to these people. She was discriminated against by her relatives at a young age. Fortunately, she met Old Chen. If not, her life would be ruined!

That was the truth. In her past life, Ye Jian was controlled by Sun Dongqing and Ye Ying so she didn’t meet Princ.i.p.al Chen. Hence, her life was ruined.

Princ.i.p.al Cao finally knew what was happening. He pretended to be stern and said to Ye Jian, “Ye Jian, hurry up and hold the old lady. Even if she isn’t your grandmother, we need to respect our elders.”

“I’m sorry. I’m not used to having physical contact with people I’m not familiar with.” Ye Jian apologized naturally. Then, she said to Ye Zhixiang, “I studied so I know that a person should be virtuous. That is why I didn’t start quarreling with Ms. Ye today.”

When Ye Zhixiang heard this, she didn’t shout at Ye Jian or have the guts to slap her like she did in the hotel in the past. She glared at Ye Jian with unease and hurriedly went to hold Grandma Ye who was a little dizzy.

“Mom, why did you get up? Don’t you know that you have high blood pressure so you shouldn’t get up abruptly?” Her voice was just loud enough for everyone in the office to hear. “No matter how excited you are, you need to take care of your health. Don’t let Brother and I worry.”

Ye Zhifan, who got named, agreed and said, “Mom, Ye Jian is here. You can sit down and talk to her properly.” His gaze landed on Ye Jian. “You don’t have to acknowledge me but you have to acknowledge your grandmother. Your father is her son and you’re her granddaughter. In this world, no granddaughter would disregard their grandmother.”

“You’re in grade twelve now. You can’t be as ignorant as you were in grade eight. Just now, you said that you studied and know that a person should be virtuous. Since you understand it, you should know that you shouldn’t make your grandmother sad.”

Princ.i.p.al Chen didn’t like what he said. He looked at Ye Zhifan with a meaningful smile. “Mr. Ye is wrong again. As compared to Ye Ying, Ye Jian, who is groomed by Uncle Gen and me, is more sensible and well-mannered. No matter what the situation is, she will always look at the big picture.”

“Princ.i.p.al Chen, we are talking about Ye Jian now. Please don’t mention my daughter again!” Ye Zhifan gave a stern expression and said in a low voice, “My daughter isn’t your student now and she isn’t studying in Provincial No.1 Middle School. What right do you have to say that she is worse than Ye Jian?”

“Then, may I ask Mr. Ye what right do you have to say that I am ill-mannered?” Ye Jian reb.u.t.ted, “I don’t have any relations.h.i.+p with Mr. Ye. What right do you have to reprimand me?”

Ye Zhifan bit his cheeks as he choked on his own breath. He was starting to grow fat so his face wasn’t as handsome as when he was young. There was a layer of gloominess on it too. After some time, he replied with one sentence, “Glib-tongued!”

He needed to take care of his image in front of the princ.i.p.al of Provincial No.1 Middle School, Princ.i.p.al Cao. After all, there were education conferences in the province and all the princ.i.p.als of famous schools interacted with the high-ranking officials of the same province frequently. If Princ.i.p.al Cao mentioned this matter to the governor of the province one day and talked bad about him behind his back, he would be reprimanded.

Grandma Ye’s turbid eyes turned even darker. Her legs seemed to be shaking as she sat down. She kept glancing at Ye Jian as though she was trying to look at someone else through her.

So alike, she looks more and more like her mother now!

She looked as though she was carved out of the same mold as her mother. Their features were similar but she looked more exquisite and beautiful. She was more charming as well.
