Chapter 698 - Thoughts

Yin Bin’s expression was a little unnatural, but he did not say anything. He thought to himself, ‘How did everything become my fault? If it weren’t for your affair, would we have ended up like this?’

Alas, Yin Bin was not Cheng Che so he could not refute his father’s words. He could only accept the blame even if it was not entirely his fault.

Meanwhile, everyone seemed moved by Old Master Yin’s words.

Ye Cheng could not help but inwardly praise Old Master Yin. As expected, the older, the wiser. He wondered how Cheng Che was going to reply to this.

The dishes were served very quickly. The dishes looked very appetizing.

At this time, Cheng Che stood up and scooped a bowl of soup for Old Master Yin before he said gently, “Please try this. This is a specialty here. My friend, also an investor of this restaurant, lost his mother when he was young. He had always missed the soup that his mother made him. Based on his description, our chef tried to recreate the soup his mother made. It took more than 100 attempts before the chef finally got it right. My friend named the soup after his mother.”

“The first time he tasted the soup, he burst into tears. At that time, he said that the person who loved him most was no longer around and that he had lost the courage to live. However, when he drank the soup, he felt as though his mother was still with him, and he gained the strength to live…”

Cheng Che paused for a moment before he looked at Old Master Yin and said, “His story is really sad, but what about me? I don’t have any memories of my mother nor do I have any memories of the Yin family. The first person I know is my Grandma, Old Madam Mu. Grandma personally raised me. Due to her kindness and grace, she’s qualified to criticize me.”

Old Madam Yin did not understand Cheng Che’s meaning. She could not figure out what Cheng Che was trying to say to Old Master Yin.

Old Master Yin’s smile had already vanished from his face. He only picked up the spoon to drink the soup before he finally nodded and said, “Cheng Che, I understand what you mean. I’ll personally visit Old Madam Mu. We’ve met a few times in the past. We’re both old now and have experienced many things, I’m sure our thinking is the same. Like I said earlier, what happened in the past should be left in the past. We shouldn’t entangle ourselves with the past; we have to move on. After all, the future is the most important. You’re my grandson. There’s no doubt about that. I won’t say anything else.”

Then, Old Master Yin raised his glass and turned to Ye Cheng.

Ye Cheng hurriedly raised his glass and clinked it with Old Master Yin. Then, he said to Cheng Che, “Cheng Che, don’t just stand there. I understand. However, there’s no point in dwelling on the past. You’ve always been kind and sensible. Don’t let the enemies be happy.”

Yin Jia was very grateful to Ye Cheng. He seemed to know the right words to say at the right time. How could she not hold onto such a good man?

Guan Tang looked at Ye Cheng thoughtfully. She felt like she had underestimated him. She also did not expect Zhuang Ning to not fall for her trick; Zhuang Ning did not show up to stir up trouble. However, she thought this was also good. Perhaps, she should keep such an outstanding man like Ye Cheng for herself.

Then, Guan Tang shifted her gaze to Cheng Che. She thought that he really suited her taste.

Finally, Guan Tang thought to herself, ‘The more men, the better…’
