Chapter 699 - Concession

Cheng Che remained indifferent. He might not reply to every question, but when he did, he would definitely kill the conversation. Whoever asked him a question would definitely be embarrassed.

Fortunately, there was Ye Cheng to liven up the atmosphere. For this reason, he became the most popular person. He would dispel the embarrassment caused by Cheng Che’s answer. Apart from that, he would also interpret Cheng Che’s answers and make them sound more reasonable. Naturally, he also did not forget to show off the brotherly love he had for Cheng Che.

Cheng Che also seemed to tolerate Ye Cheng. He did not deny or refute Cheng Che’s words when Ye Cheng reminisced about their childhood. In any case, this was enough to lend credence to Ye Cheng’s words.

No one could confirm if Cheng Che would return to the Yin family or not, but everyone knew there was no doubt that Ye Cheng would become part of the Yin family.

Gradually, everyone also discovered Cheng Che was very polite to Yin Jia and Guan Tang, and he did not show any dislike to Yin Yi, his younger sister. The three women were very pleased by this.

Old Master Yin was very happy to see Cheng Che being so supportive of his eldest sister, Yin Jia. He was also pleased that Cheng Che was amiable to Yin Yin, showing that Cheng Che was a gentleman. Apart from that, he could not help but have ideas of his own when he saw Cheng Che’s treatment of Guan Tang.

Old Master Yin thought it would be best if Cheng Che married Guan Tang. It would be easier to do things in the future, after all. If Cheng Che married an outsider, who knew if the outsider would be difficult to deal with? He thought that Guan Tang was very wise for choosing to retreat instead of advancing.

Old Master Yin was very pleased and satisfied when he looked at the group of young people in front of him. Everything was going very smoothly. Now that the atmosphere was harmonious, he shot a meaningful look at Yin Bin.

Yin Bin found the right time and said, “Cheng Che, your grandfather came all the way to M City to see you this time. When do you think it’s convenient for you? We’ll make the arrangements and hold a ceremony for you to acknowledge your ancestors and return to the family.”

Yin Bin’s words were not a question.

The atmosphere froze immediately.

Everyone turned to look at Cheng Che in unison.

Cheng Che put his chopsticks down before he said indifferently, “Why are we back on this topic? Isn’t it good like that now? When we’re free, we can have a meal together. If there are suitable projects, we can work on them together. As for the others, they’re not important. I don’t want to return to the Yin family. We should all compromise. I feel like I’ve already made a huge concession. What do you think?”

Old Master Yin’s expression darkened immediately.

Cheng Che remained fearless as he met Old Master Yin’s gaze.

Old Master Yin said in a deep voice, “Returning to the family will bring you endless benefits. Don’t tell me when you have children in the future, their last names won’t be Yin?”

Cheng Che smiled. “What’s wrong with that? I think the surname Cheng is quite good. I grew up with the surname Cheng, after all.”

“Cheng Che!” Yin Bin called out anxiously.

Old Master Yin said angrily, “Your surname is Yin! Your name is Yin Xing! You’re the eldest grandson of the Yin family! How can you use your grandmother’s surname?”

Cheng Che smiled. “Oh, is that what you care about? If I change my surname to Yin, does that mean I don’t have to return to the Yin family?”

Old Master Yin was so angry that he could not speak for a moment.

Yin Bin hastily said, “Cheng Che! You know that’s not what your grandfather meant! You’re the eldest grandson of the Yin family! Do you know how important this matter is? You should have equal status with Mu Chen, not just an adopted child of his family. You should be more than just his assistant. You’re the rightful Eldest Young Master of the Yin family!”

Cheng Che said nonchalantly, “But I don’t want that.”
