SAG -Chapter 103 Volunteering for the Task

He Yong had always been unwilling to trouble Zhang Ran with his own affairs. Just like with the people behind his imprisonment, he had never once brought it up.

He Yong knew that as long as he opened his mouth, Zhang Ran would definitely help him. He also believed that Zhang Ran had the ability to do so.

But He Yong never told Zhang Ran. He did not want to trouble Zhang Ran because of his own matters. Even more than that, he was afraid it might disrupt Zhang Ran’s plans.

But when it came to He Qing’s matter, He Yong no longer had his previous persistence. He did not want his daughter to suffer grievances, especially when those grievances had arisen because of him.

He Yong knew that aside from being good at fighting, he had no other strengths. And this matter was not something that could be solved with violence at all. So now, he could only ask Zhang Ran for help.

In He Yong’s heart, Zhang Ran would definitely be able to solve this matter. He had a blind confidence in Zhang Ran.

…

At this moment, Zhang Ran was also having a headache. Looking at the two pairs of eyes full of expectation in front of him, he immediately felt troubled.

It was not that anything major had happened. It was just that New Year’s Day was approaching, and both Taotao’s primary school and Susu’s kindergarten were holding New Year’s Day parties. At the same time, they had both invited the parents.

The two little ones, Taotao and Susu, both wanted Zhang Ran to attend their New Year’s Day parties.

Zhang Ran did not know the exact times of either event. If they happened to be at the same time, he did not have the ability to split himself in two.

So agreeing to either one was not good, but not agreeing was even worse.

Just as Zhang Ran was feeling troubled, He Yong called. Zhang Ran immediately answered the phone as if granted amnesty. Escaping for even a little while was still escaping.

Very quickly, Zhang Ran’s expression became somewhat serious. After listening to He Yong’s explanation, he felt angry, but also somewhat regretful.

Strictly speaking, this matter had a little to do with him too. Back then, when he had asked He Yong to do those things, he had completely been standing from the perspective of a father. He had not considered that something like this might happen.

“I understand. Wait over there for now. I’ll head over immediately,” Zhang Ran said in a deep voice.

After hearing Zhang Ran’s words, He Yong’s originally panicked heart immediately settled down.

After Zhang Ran hung up the phone, he began to think deeply, considering how to resolve this matter.

Zhang Ran knew that rumors were actually extremely terrifying, especially rumors of this kind. Saying that they could drive a person to death would not be an exaggeration at all.

When Taotao and Susu saw that their grandfather was thinking about something, they were both very sensible and did not disturb him anymore. Instead, they started playing by themselves.

Very soon, Zhang Ran thought of a solution that was not exactly a solution.

He immediately called Meng Mingxuan.

“Do you have any good way to resolve this matter?” Zhang Ran briefly explained the situation and asked.

For this kind of thing, Zhang Ran himself did not have any good method, but people like Meng Mingxuan should have some methods that belonged entirely to their circle.

Moreover, this matter could not be handled roughly right now. They had to silence the public gossip and allow the matter to completely calm down. Otherwise, the result would still be the same.

However, to Zhang Ran’s disappointment, Meng Mingxuan said, “I’ve never done something like this before. Uncle Zhang, you’re not suspecting that I’ve done this kind of thing, are you? I’m innocent, Uncle Zhang.”

Zhang Ran said irritably, “Get lost. I don’t have time to joke around with you right now. If you dared to do something like this, let’s see whether your father would break your legs or not.”

“Uh…” Meng Mingxuan was retorted by Zhang Ran and did not know what to say.

Just as Zhang Ran was about to hang up, some noise came from the other side. Then Ning Qing’s voice came through the phone.

“Uncle Zhang, I have a way to handle this matter. Leave it to me,” Ning Qing said.

“All right. Thanks,” Zhang Ran said without asking what specific method she had in mind.

After interacting with Ning Qing for a while, he knew that Ning Qing was very skilled in worldly dealings. Although she had a tendency to treat people differently depending on who they were, Zhang Ran had to admit that she truly had some ability.

“This is their current location.” Zhang Ran told Ning Qing where He Yong and the others were waiting, as well as He Yong’s phone number.

After that, Zhang Ran hung up. He looked at the two little ones, thought for a moment, and decided to bring them along.

Right now, Zhang Sicheng and Liu Lu were both at work, and Zhang Ran did not feel at ease leaving the two little ones with anyone else. So he could only bring them with him wherever he went.

Susu and Taotao had no objections at all. As long as they could stay with Grandpa, they felt very happy.

…

He Yong, He Qing, and the others stood in a secluded place, waiting anxiously. Compared to them, He Qing appeared much calmer.

“Dad, is it really okay to trouble Uncle Zhang with this?” He Qing asked.

In truth, what she meant was that things had already become like this. What could Zhang Ran possibly do to solve it?

“Don’t worry. As long as Brother Zhang agrees to help, there definitely won’t be a problem,” He Yong said with great confidence.

Seeing her biological father act so confident, He Qing did not know what to say.

She knew Zhang Ran’s situation. He had been separated from society for twenty-eight years and had only just returned not long ago. What exactly made He Yong trust Zhang Ran so much?

Half an hour later, He Yong’s phone rang. Not long afterward, five or six luxury cars drove over.

“Uncle He, this must be Xiao Qing, right? Hello, my name is Meng Mingxuan. You can just call me Sister Mingxuan,” Meng Mingxuan said with a smile as he stepped forward.

He Qing stared blankly at Meng Mingxuan, Ning Qing, and the others. She was not blind, so naturally she could tell that these people were all wealthy.

As for Min Wenwen standing beside her, her eyes shone brightly. Her hand gripped He Qing tightly. She had never expected that He Qing’s father actually knew so many rich second-generation heirs. Did that mean He Qing was also a rich second-generation heir?

But then, what was with He Qing’s situation before? Why had her life been so difficult?

He Qing was also dazed, but she quickly came back to her senses. After both sides introduced themselves, Ning Qing said, “Xiao Qing, don’t worry. I’ll help you vent your anger later. Anyone who dares bully my, Ning Qing’s, little sister must really be tired of living.”

Ning Qing was very good with words. With just one sentence, she made both He Qing and He Yong develop a very favorable impression of her.

“You… you’re Senior Ning Qing?” Min Wenwen suddenly said loudly from the side.

Ning Qing was stunned, then said, “You know me?”

“Mm-hm! Senior, you’re a famous figure at our school. Back then, when you led our school’s student union, you built an impressive reputation. Even now, legends about you are still passed around in our student union,” Min Wenwen said excitedly. Her appearance was just like someone who had met her idol.

Ning Qing had graduated from Jiao Tong University and had also been the student union president back then. During the time she managed the student union, relying on her own connections and network, she had organized Jiao Tong University’s student union very well.

The students from those years had all benefited from it. Quite a few people had found very good jobs before graduation because of Ning Qing’s connections.

Not only that, Jiao Tong University’s student union had also participated in quite a few government-organized activities at the time and had shown its face impressively.

Min Wenwen had already joined the student union, so naturally she knew about these things. However, He Qing did not know. She had not joined any clubs. In the past, she had spent all her free time working.
