Chapter 217: I will not accept your apology

Lu Ye looked at the man who opened the door for him with a ghostly expression.

He smirked. "You have a lot to apologize for. Which one are you referring to?"

Xie Zheng met his smug expression and gritted his teeth as he spoke, "I admit that I shouldn't have lost control of my emotions and spoiled Bai Zhi's mood when you confessed to her that day."

He touched his nose and continued awkwardly, "My business with you should be handled separately and shouldn't involve Bai Zhi. I'm sorry for affecting her mood."

"It's good that you know."

When Bai Zhi was mentioned, Lu Ye's eyes were full of warning as he looked at Xie Zheng. "I will not forgive what you did that day, and neither will Xiao Bai. Stay away from her in the future, or I will cripple you."

Xie Zheng trembled slightly at Lu Ye's fierce expression.

He retorted defiantly, "I've already apologized to you, what more do you want?"

If this bastard doesn't accept his apology, then Bai Zhi won't continue treating his arm.

Moreover, they will make him pay back the money immediately.

"Is this what you call an apology?"

Lu Ye looked at him and asked, "Who forced you to apologize to me?"

"No one forced me." Xie Zheng touched his nose. "I did realize my mistake, please forgive me."

"Of course, I'm only referring to the fact that I ruined your confession ceremony to Bai Zhi, not anything else."

I do not accept your apology.

After Lu Ye finished speaking, he strode into the courtyard. Xie Zheng caught up with him, frowning and questioning, "I've already apologized, why won't you accept it? What are you putting on airs for?"

Lu Ye stopped and looked at him, his handsome face filled with mockery. "If I'm not mistaken, you were forced to apologize to me against your will due to some kind of pressure."

Lu Ye looked at him and tried to reason with him, "Old Xie, I don't need your apology. I just hope you can wake up, get out of the shadows of the past, and start a new life."

After Lu Ye finished speaking, he walked towards the Xie family's main hall.

As soon as he reached the door, he heard his grandfather's hearty laughter.

Lu Ye stepped inside.

"Grandpa, Second Grandpa."

When Lu Ye saw that his maternal grandfather was also there, he greeted him politely, "Grandpa, you're out today too?"

"Ono, you're back?"

When Grandpa Xie saw his grandson, his eyes were full of love. "I heard from your grandfather that you went to Bincheng with your partner."

"Yes, I just got back today."

Old Lu hurriedly asked, "Where's Xiao Zhi? Did she come back with you?"

Lu Ye replied, "We're back, we're all back. She's seeing patients at Jishengtang with my grandfather. There are a lot of patients today, they'll probably be busy until very late."

"When I was out on the street a few days ago, I heard people talking about some kind of miracle doctor, Ye. They were talking about my granddaughter-in-law's grandfather?" Grandpa Lu asked curiously.

Lu Ye nodded, "Yes, he is a very famous traditional Chinese medicine doctor. Many patients in Nancheng have been waiting for him since they heard that he was coming to Nancheng to hold a clinic."

Lu Ye's maternal grandfather was also very curious about Ye Rufeng.

He smiled and said, "That's great. I must visit Mr. Ye when I have the chance."

"Okay, sure." Then Lu Ye said to his grandfather, "Grandpa, let's go home. I've come to pick you up."

Upon hearing this, Xie Zheng's grandfather immediately frowned and stopped Lu Ye, saying, "Why go back? Since you're here, stay and have a meal with us. You can go back after you finish eating. We already agreed to let your grandfather stay for a meal. If you come to the Xie family and go back without even having a meal, people will laugh at the Xie family for being stingy."

"Second Grandfather, we have some things to take care of at home and need to go back early."

Lu Ye looked at his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, if you want to come to my house for a while, you can come with my grandfather. I drove here."

Indeed, it has been a long time since Mr. Xie visited his daughter's home.

I ran into my in-laws today and wanted to have a good chat about the children.

As a result, his in-laws and his younger brother argued all morning, and he was caught in the middle, unable to get a word in edgewise when he wanted to talk about something serious.

Thinking of this, Old Xie replied, "Okay, then let's go over and sit for a while. I haven't been to your house in a long time, and your mother hasn't come home to see us for many days either."

When Old Master Lu heard that Lu Ye had something important to say, he didn't stay for dinner and got up to leave with Lu Ye.

At the same time, Lu Ye's maternal grandfather also wanted to go with them.

Seeing that they were all about to leave, Xie Zheng's grandfather became anxious and said, "I have nothing else to do, so I'll go back with you."

He looked at his older brother and added with a smile, "I haven't seen my niece in a long time either."

Lu Ye's maternal grandfather stopped him, saying, "You should stay home. Instead of wasting time wandering around, you should educate your eldest grandson and ask him what his plans are for the future. He's so old and doesn't even have a proper job. Look at how successful the Shen family's daughter is. She's become a military doctor and has now been transferred to Nancheng to do some research. Aren't you worried about your grandson doing nothing all day?"

"What's the rush? Xiao Zheng hasn't been messing around outside, nor has he broken any laws or regulations. He hasn't been idle either; he's been working on his creative projects. Creative work requires time to mature, so why are you all in such a hurry? He'll succeed sooner or later; I believe in my grandson."

Xie Zheng had just returned to his room and dressed his grandfather when he hurriedly prepared to leave to queue at Jishengtang.

Upon hearing his grandfather's words, he abruptly stopped tucking his arm into his sleeve.

Her eyes welled up with glistening tears.

In this world, only his grandparents always trusted and supported him unconditionally.

Even though he has spent so much of their retirement savings, his parents have never worried about his future, nor have they ever urged him to go out and find a job because he doesn't earn money.

They always supported him unconditionally, letting him do what he wanted.

I give him living expenses on time every month.

Lu Ye and the two elderly people came out and bumped into Xie Zheng, who was about to go out.

Old Lu was also very troubled by Xie Zheng.

It's really worrying that such a young man doesn't have a proper job.

He was previously wary of Xie Zheng, always fearing that he would interfere and ruin Lu Ye and Bai Zhi's relationship.

However, it now seems that he was overthinking it.

Bai Zhi is no pushover. A good-for-nothing like Xie Zheng can only fool those pretty-faced girls.

Bai Zhi was trained by Master Ye. She has a broad vision and profound knowledge, and she would never be attracted by Xie Zheng's so-called beauty.

Besides, no matter how Xie Zheng performs, he can't compare to Lu Ye.

"Grandpa, Grandpa Lu, are you leaving?" Xie Zheng said to them after getting dressed.

"Well, we've been here too long, it's time to go."

As a retired teacher, Mr. Xie had higher expectations for young people than others.

Old Master Xie was very disappointed in his nephew's son because Xie Zheng didn't have a proper job and didn't look for one.

The tone of voice when speaking to him was not very friendly.
