Chapter 172 Making a Request

Time slipped by, and it was finally time to get off work.

Just like in the morning, Ye Fei also rode in He Jingyao's car, and the two then headed towards Jiangnanli. Kuaishuge

Along the way, He Jingyao remained silent throughout. Ye Fei scratched his head and then spoke directly.

"Miss He, did I do something wrong again? Why aren't you talking?"

"Even if you say something, let me know what exactly I did wrong!"

Ye Fei said in frustration.

He Jingyao, who had been somewhat angry, saw Ye Fei's appearance, and her anger dissipated.

"I ask you, am I not good-looking?"

"Then why do you keep talking about canceling the engagement?"

"Explain it to me!"

Ye Fei was stunned upon hearing this.

So this was the reason for the young lady's displeasure.

He then gave a wry smile.

"Miss, of course you are incredibly beautiful, but to be honest, I already have someone I like!"

"So no matter how beautiful you are, I won't be moved!"

Ye Fei said righteously.

All his thoughts were on his senior sister, and he wished he could cancel all engagements the next second.

He Jingyao, upon hearing this, did not expect such a reason and her impression of Ye Fei improved considerably.

"I didn't expect you to be so devoted!"

"Don't worry, we'll try to persuade my grandfather, and maybe he'll agree to break off our engagement!"

He Jingyao said.

"That would be great, I'll ask the old man later."

Ye Fei's mood also became excited.

As long as the engagement was broken off, he would be one step closer to his senior sister.

The car sped down the road, and after more than half an hour, they finally arrived at the He family's villa.

"Miss, we've been waiting for you both."

"The master is also home."

The butler stepped forward and said.

"Got it."

He Jingyao replied.

Then He Jingyao and Ye Fei walked into the living room of the He family together.

The old master, who was drinking tea, immediately saw Ye Fei and the two of them.

He became instantly excited.

He quickly walked up to Ye Fei and clasped his hands in greeting.

"Young sir, thank you for your help before. My life was saved by you!"

"My attending physician said that without your emergency aid, I definitely wouldn't have made it to the hospital!"

"I truly didn't expect us to have such a connection!"

After sighing, the old master said excitedly.

"I've heard everything from Yuan Dong about your matters. Since you are the future son-in-law of our He family, then Grandpa will shamelessly call you grandson-in-law!"

"Grandson-in-law, come, sit beside me quickly!"

"How has Daoist Qingyi been recently?"

"It's been over twenty years since we last met."

Ye Fei couldn't refuse the old master, so he sat beside him at his extremely enthusiastic invitation.

"Dinner!"

"Grandson-in-law, consider this your own home, after all, you will be a member of our He family from now on!"

The old master's face was full of joy, wearing a Tang suit, and his heart was even happier.

He had developed a very good impression of Ye Fei, this young man who had saved him at their first meeting.

After all, this was a disciple of Daoist Qingyi.

Moreover, the person who had treated him earlier was also a master of traditional Chinese medicine, and he was full of admiration for Ye Fei's acupuncture techniques.

He couldn't wait to meet Ye Fei in person.

So that he could seek his advice.

From this, it could be seen how terrifyingly powerful Ye Fei was.

He certainly wouldn't let go of such an excellent grandson-in-law.

As for Ye Fei coming to break off the engagement, he would pretend not to see it.

In any case, he had to keep such an excellent grandson-in-law!

As for feelings, they would develop with more time spent together.

"Old man, I'll be direct with you today. I've come to your He family to break off the engagement!"

"My master entered into this marriage for me without my consent. As young people of the new era, we naturally have to resist!"

"Don't worry, as long as you agree to break off the engagement, I'm willing to agree to any conditions!"

Ye Fei said directly.

"What? You want to break off the engagement?"

"No, no, unless your master comes and speaks to me personally, I won't agree!"

The old master shook his head vehemently, clearly unwilling to agree to Ye Fei's request.

Of course, this also aroused the dissatisfaction of He Jingyao's mother, Zhao Die.

"Dad, since he wants to break off the engagement, let these two children do so. Our Yao Yao is beautiful, and it would be a great loss if she married this boy!"

"Isn't the eldest young master of the Wang family been pursuing our Yao Yao?"

"I think that eldest young master of the Wang family is quite good!"

Zhao Die seized the opportunity to say.

"What kind of family is the Wang family? That eldest young master of the Wang family is a scoundrel, and he's never been without women around him!"

"If Yao Yao were to marry him, wouldn't that ruin Yao Yao for life!"

"As Yao Yao's mother, you should consider her!"

"Don't just think about money!"

The old master was furious upon hearing such remarks.

"Alright, you don't need to interfere in this matter!"

"Just live your life as a wealthy lady honestly!"

"Don't worry about Yao Yao's affairs!"

He Yuandong directly reprimanded.

He Haojie, He Jingyao's younger brother, also grumbled.

"Mom, you just buy and buy. With your brain, it's better not to get involved."

Zhao Die's face instantly turned red, and she was so angry she could explode.

She put down her chopsticks and returned to her room without a word.

"Xiao Fei, don't mind her, let's eat quickly, let's eat quickly."

Seeing that there was no hope of breaking off the engagement, Ye Fei was helpless.

People are iron, rice is steel, one meal not eaten makes one hungry.

It seemed he could only make long-term plans.

After eating and drinking, Ye Fei said kindly again.

"Old man, give me a clear answer, what exactly do you want me to do to agree to let me break off the engagement?"

"Look, your granddaughter and I have no feelings for each other. It's of no benefit to tie us both like this."

"I believe you don't want your granddaughter and me to resent you in the future, right?"

Ye Fei probed.

Old Master He chuckled, not taking it to heart at all.

"Xiao Fei, how about this, I'll give you three months to spend time together. If there's no spark between you two within these three months, I'll agree to break off the engagement. What do you say?"

The old master had already taken a step back, so Ye Fei had no choice but to agree.

It was only three months, he could wait.

As soon as he finished speaking, two hurried figures suddenly rushed out.

"Dad, my company is in a bit of trouble. Yao Yao and I will sleep at the company tonight."

"It's a matter of urgency, I'll tell you later."

"We're leaving now!"

He Yuandong's face was very anxious, probably encountering some significant trouble.

"Xiao Fei, you go with them too."

"Don't forget our agreement!"

Old Master He, having witnessed many storms, saw the unnatural expressions on their faces but did not show any panic.

"Understood, I'm leaving now."

Then the three of them headed directly towards the He family's company.
