Chapter 223: Caught in the Net
Wang Shufen was convinced that Ye Rufeng and Bai Zhi would not treat her, but Lu Ya had a completely different opinion.
“Grandpa, cousin, my cousin’s wife and that Dr. Ye did not actually refuse to treat my mother. They just said that my mother’s condition was quite complicated and there were many patients waiting in line in the afternoon. They would wait until they finished their workday to have a consultation before deciding. My mother was too emotional.”
However, Lu Ye and Old Master Lu's expressions did not change at all after Lu Ya spoke.
It seems they, like Wang Shufen, thought this was just a pretext.
“Cousin, I absolutely trust my cousin’s wife. She will definitely get my mother treatment.”
Despite her heavy makeup, Lu Ya's youthful appearance was still evident. She spoke with certainty, "How could a highly respected doctor like Dr. Ye go back on his word? So many people heard what he said."
"Alright, Mom, you should go back to your room and rest. If you need anything, ask Zhang Ma. I have something to do today and need to go out."
Lu Ya finished speaking quickly and said she was going to change her clothes before going out to find her classmate.
Recently, while staying at home, under her grandfather's guidance, Lu Ya's clothing has become much more normal than when she first returned.
Now that she was going out on a date, she wore that studded leather jacket that her grandfather had criticized, along with a leather skirt.
She touched up her makeup again.
She also took out a huge sum of money from her wealthy father, which she had received for taking care of her mother, and went downstairs.
Then, amidst Old Master Lu's stern curses, he slipped out the door.
When Old Lu saw his granddaughter, who had been dressed relatively normally just moments before, suddenly change into strange clothes and go out like a hooligan, he was so angry that he cursed loudly.
The key point is that Lu Ye's maternal grandfather is also there. His in-laws are retired from the education system and are intellectuals. Seeing the behavior of Lu Ye's granddaughter, he doesn't know how to laugh at them.
He was too embarrassed to face his in-laws at that moment.
However, Mr. Xie's attitude was unexpected. He smiled and comforted Mr. Lu, "My dear in-law, we shouldn't meddle in the affairs of young people. Nowadays, we advocate freedom of love and freedom of dress. You can't expect the children to be like us, can you? As elders, we shouldn't interfere too much, or we'll be disliked."
Old Master Lu was quite surprised by his in-laws's views. "In-laws, is that really what you think?"
His in-laws are intellectuals who teach and educate people, yet they have such open-minded ideas?
"I have always believed that a person's character is the most important thing, and one should not judge a person based on their clothing or appearance."
Old Xie said, "This society needs diversified development. Young people should act like young people. We can't expect them to be as rigid and old-fashioned as us. Except for special professions like Lu Ye's, we can't make them too fancy. We shouldn't be too harsh on others. Let them be. As long as they abide by the law, love life, and work hard, that's enough. We should also liberate our thinking."
Upon hearing what Elder Xie said, Elder Lu's gaze towards him changed.
After a long while, he silently gave a thumbs up, "My dear in-law, you truly deserve to be called a teacher with students all over the world. Your ideological awareness and insights are indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people."
“Look at Xie Zheng, has he ever been serious all these years? His grandparents don’t care, and we don’t think there’s anything wrong with it. It’s not a bad thing for young people to dress more lively.”
After being comforted by his in-laws, Old Master Lu felt much better.
Indeed, he can't interfere in the affairs of young people, and they don't allow him to either.
However, since they lived in a military compound, and Lu Ya was his granddaughter, she dressed like a hoodlum. Recently, Lu Ya's clothes and appearance have become a major topic of conversation among the old men and women in the compound.
Not everyone has the same level of awareness as Mr. Xie.
Lu Ye called his parents' respective offices to inform them that he and Bai Zhi had returned to Nancheng.
Ask them to go home as early as possible after get off work.
Aunt Zhang had already gone out early to buy groceries and prepare dinner.
Lu Ye was worried that Ye Rufeng and Bai Zhi would get off work early, so he decided to pick them up.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, please sit down first. When my parents come back, please briefly mention to them the progress of my relationship with Xiaobai. During dinner, everyone must be sincere with Xiaobai's grandfather. Our whole family must take my marriage with Xiaobai very seriously."
Lu Yejun's face was serious as he gave the two elderly people some instructions.
Old Lu rolled his eyes at him. "Don't worry, do you need to tell me that?"
Looking at his eldest grandson, who had now become love-struck and insightful, Old Master Lu felt genuinely gratified.
Back then, this kid was completely unyielding; no matter how much we tried to persuade him, he refused to meet Bai Zhi.
They said they wouldn't talk about relationships for the time being.
Now, hehe........
They're more eager than anyone else when they see someone they like.
Mr. Lu was very pleased.
He knew this day would come.
........
Lu Ye left home; it was still early.
He first went to a public phone and made a call to Ye Qingbai.
Throughout the day, he kept thinking about Ye Tiandong's situation.
I want to know if Li Bin has been arrested.
They reported the case to the police station yesterday, and the police are taking it very seriously.
There shouldn't be any problems.
The call was quickly connected, and Ye Qingbai heard Lu Ye's voice and called out, "Brother Ye."
"So? Has the person been caught?" Lu Ye asked succinctly, directly inquiring about the results.
"We caught him." Ye Qingbai said excitedly. "Brother Ye, it's a pity you weren't here last night, so we couldn't witness that bastard being caught."
Ye Qingbai vividly described the process of Li Bin's arrest last night.
As a whistleblower with a special profession, he went to the scene with the police, but he did not participate in the arrest. However, he did lead the way as an informant.
At the time, Li Bin was carrying nearly fifty grams of powder when he came to make a deal with someone.
After that night's warm-up, all the local thugs who needed that kind of thing came.
There were eight people in total.
These are all fugitives whom the police wanted to arrest but couldn't because of insufficient evidence.
Fortunately, Li Bin managed to gather them all together.
They wiped it all out last night.
Lu Ye took a deep breath upon hearing the news.
He was clearly very satisfied with the result.
He knew that the comrades in uniform would not let them down.
"What about your uncle?" Lu Ye asked immediately. "How is he?"
When Ye Qingbai mentioned Ye Tiandong, his tone was clearly not as excited as before. He sighed, "I am not allowed to interfere in my cousin's affairs. All I know is that after Li Bin was arrested last night, he asked to see Li Bin, but it seems that he has not been granted permission yet. He should be able to see Li Bin tomorrow."
"Brother Ye, don't worry, my uncle is a reliable person. He definitely won't acknowledge the child in Li Li's belly."
Now that the scoundrel has been caught and his uncle has figured out the truth, no matter how much Li Li tries to deny it, his uncle will not soften his heart.
No man wants to be a cuckold.
"Okay, got it."
Upon hearing this news, Lu Ye felt a weight lifted from his heart.
Of course, Li Bin's arrest was just the beginning for them.
Li Bin was just a nobody.
Where his goods come from and who his supplier is are the most important things.
They must dig out an even bigger fish through Li Bin.
