Chapter 254: 250. The Yaotian Pharmaceutical Matter Really Does Have Something to Do with Me

After Zhang Ran finished giving instructions that afternoon, he prepared to leave, but just as he was about to go, He Yong walked over and whispered, "Brother Zhang, there is an old lady outside claiming to be your mother-in-law. What do you think?"

Zhang Ran frowned and said, "Ignore her, let's go."

But when Zhang Ran walked out, he discovered Wang Xiuying was waiting for him; seeing them come out, she immediately approached.

"Zhang Ran, wait a moment," Wang Xiuying hurriedly called out.

Zhang Ran took a deep breath, slowly stopped his steps, and looked at Wang Xiuying; his expression was very cold.

"Zhang Ran, I am Qingwan's mother, that..." Wang Xiuying felt somewhat uneasy standing in front of Zhang Ran.

Zhang Ran said indifferently, "I know. Is there something you need?"

"That, it's just, I came to apologize to you. What we did before was wrong, and I also..." As she spoke, Wang Xiuying began to tear up.

As soon as Zhang Ran saw this situation, he turned around and left.

Apologize?

Heh!

It's probably to plead for their eldest son!

"Zhang Ran, can you let me see my grandson and granddaughter? Even if it's just to take a look from afar," Wang Xiuying said hurriedly upon seeing Zhang Ran's reaction.

Zhang Ran said, "I have already said it: our Zhang Family has absolutely no relationship with your Yu Family. Alright, go back."

After saying this, Zhang Ran left without looking back.

In the car, He Yong drove silently the whole time, and Zhang Ran closed his eyes to rest, not speaking from beginning to end.

He Qing had been left here by Zhang Ran; this was a fairly good learning opportunity, and Zhang Ran had even specially invited someone to teach her.

He Qing herself was also very hardworking; now she slept less than five hours a day, but she didn't feel tired at all, instead feeling very fulfilled and expectant.

She now understood a bit more about her father's boss, but the more she understood, the more shocked He Qing felt in her heart, and at the same time, she understood even more why her father's loyalty to Zhang Ran had never wavered in the slightest for so many years.

On the road, Zhang Ran and He Yong took turns driving, though He Yong did most of the driving; by the time they arrived home, it was already seven o'clock the next morning.

"Dad, you're back?" Liu Lu had just prepared to make breakfast when she saw Zhang Ran walk in looking exhausted, and she hurriedly greeted him.

Zhang Ran smiled and said, "Yes, boil me some thin porridge in a bit."

"Alright, I'll get on it," Liu Lu agreed and went straight to boil the porridge.

Zhang Ran sat on the sofa, his whole body relaxing; he leaned back on the sofa and fell asleep without realizing it.

When Zhang Ran woke up again, he was awakened by the two little ones, and he happened to hear Liu Lu's scolding.

"Keep your voices down, Grandpa is tired and is resting."

But she spoke a bit too late, because after the two little ones saw Zhang Ran, the grogginess from just waking up in the morning vanished instantly, and they rushed over and hugged Zhang Ran.

Zhang Ran held the two little ones in his arms and felt his whole being become much more fulfilled; this feeling of relaxation, fulfillment, and happiness really made him very infatuated.

"Grandpa, Grandpa, why did you only just come back? I missed you so, so much," Taotao really had a sweet mouth, and as she spoke, she rubbed her little cheek against Zhang Ran's chest, showing an affectionate appearance.

Susu also hugged her grandfather's arm tightly, "Grandpa, can you take me with you next time? I don't want to be separated from Grandpa for such a long time."

Zhang Ran's heart, which had been somewhat exhausted, was swept clean by these two little ones, and he laughed, "Grandpa missed you both too. Right, look at what Grandpa brought you?"

As he spoke, Zhang Ran gave the gifts he had brought to the two little ones, but to his surprise, even though the two little ones liked his gifts very much, they still didn't let go of the little hands that were hugging his arms.

Zhang Ran was helpless and could only help them unwrap the gifts, but his heart was sweet the whole time.

Seeing Zhang Ran like this, Liu Lu couldn't bring herself to scold the two little ones anymore, but she still said to Zhang Ran, "Dad, they already have too many toys; the room is almost full. Don't buy them these next time, it's too wasteful."

Hearing his daughter-in-law's words, Zhang Ran hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I'll just buy a little bit."

Liu Lu was helpless, knowing that Zhang Ran hadn't listened; having not seen the two little ones for so long, she figured Zhang Ran wouldn't listen to anything she said now.

Just as Liu Lu finished cooking, the three Bert brothers, Zhang Siyan, and Qian Li all arrived on time; now they all treated this place as a cafeteria.

Zhang Siyan and Qian Li had already bought houses here, and one each at that; who told them that neither of them lacked money now.

However, they still lived together for now, leaving one house empty.

Seeing Zhang Ran return, the few of them greeted him one after another, and Zhang Ran responded to each one.

While eating, Qian Li couldn't suppress the curiosity in her heart and asked as if casually, "Uncle Zhang, what have you been doing during this time?"

Zhang Ran drank a mouthful of porridge to warm his stomach and said, "Nothing much, just went to collect a debt."

"Collect a debt? Uncle Zhang still has debts out there?" Qian Li was first a bit disappointed, but still asked again.

"Yes, there are still debts that haven't been collected yet, but there's no rush."

"Then did you collect it this time? How much money?"

"I went there in person, so of course I collected it. It was quite a bit of money. Why? Are you short on money? Just tell me how much you need," Zhang Ran said.

"No, we aren't short on money, it's just that at first I thought the Yaotian Pharmaceutical matter had something to do with you," Qian Li said, scratching her head in embarrassment as she saw Zhang Ran's gaze.

Especially since Zhang Siyan and Qian Li had met Sun Gaixin yesterday, and from Sun Gaixin's account, it seemed Sun Gaixin was in his current state because of the Zhang Family, so it could only be Zhang Ran.

Linking that to the matter of Tian Ya's father, Tian Yaohui, that was why they had such a guess.

The others actually all had such thoughts, because it was simply too coincidental, but after hearing Zhang Ran say this, they all subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

But then they heard Zhang Ran say, "It indeed has something to do with me."

"Huh?" The few of them were all confused; wasn't he just collecting a debt? How did it get involved with Yaotian Pharmaceutical?

Zhang Ran said nonchalantly, "Did I not tell you? The one who owed the debt was Tian Yaohui!"

Zhang Siyan and Zhang Sicheng looked at each other, their eyes filled with confusion; had their father mentioned that before?

Why didn't they remember?

Qian Li was even more shocked in her heart and couldn't help but say, "Then you were also involved in the Yaotian Pharmaceutical matter? Does Tian Yaohui going in have something to do with you too?"

Except for the four carefree little ones, the rest of the people subconsciously stopped their chopsticks; they felt as if they were about to hear a big piece of news.
