Chapter 269 Don’t Get Ahead
Zhang Miaomiao was stunned and could hardly believe her ears.
"What do you mean?"
Ye Yan shrugged: "My meaning is very clear. The bet between Sun Kaisheng and I is between the two of us."
"Just because Mr. Zhang doesn't take action in this matter doesn't mean I agree to void the bet!"
Zhang Miaomiao became anxious.
No, this is different from what I imagined!
"But this bet is unethical, illogical, and illegal... Without my grandfather's intervention, the Sun family would have no problem denying it!"
"Why do you want to humiliate yourself?"
Ye Yan smiled faintly: "The truth is not in the loudness of the voice! It is only natural to pay back debts. This is my truth!"
"Just because I'm of humble status, can't I uphold my truth? Can the Sun family just shirk their responsibility?"
Zhang Miaomiao's face turned red and she pointed at Ye Yan with trembling hands.
"You...you are just making nonsense and spreading false theories!"
Ye Yan said seriously.
"In this world, your truth is not the only truth!"
"You can ask Sun Xuance, even if Mr. Zhang didn't intervene, would he dare to deny my debt to Ye Yan?"
Zhang Miaomiao subconsciously turned her gaze to Sun Xuance.
Sun Xuance just gritted his teeth but didn't dare to speak. He didn't dare to confront Ye Yan directly.
Ye Yan continued, "Sun Xuance, I originally intended to give Elder Zhang a favor. If Sun Kaisheng personally takes back the Broken Army Spear in the future, not only will your Sun family not lose face, but it will also allow Sun Kaisheng to gain fame!"
"But now... within three days, you must deliver the Broken Army Spear to me!"
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have to come here in person. I think the Fulong Sect would come to help me collect my gambling debts in order to uphold the sect's rules!"
Sun Xuance's face became even uglier, but he couldn't say anything.
Is he going to blame Zhang Miaomiao for causing trouble?
Zhang Miaomiao was completely panicked and turned to look at Mr. Zhang Songbai.
"Grandpa, please say something! Ye Yan is unreasonable and gambling debts are illegal!"
"Why does he ask for the Sun family's heirloom? Isn't this bullying?"
According to Sun Kaisheng.
He lost his heirloom because he was tricked by Ye Yan.
Ye Yan, this despicable villain, is full of calculations and is willing to ruin Mr. Zhang's reputation in order to repay a favor.
Now it seems that Sun Kaisheng really did not wrong Ye Yan at all!
How could such a rude and unreasonable bastard be a good person?
Zhang Songbai's eyes flickered slightly and he coughed lightly.
"Miaomiao, I've thought carefully about what you just said. You're right, I really shouldn't get involved in this kind of mess!"
"I, Zhang, have a sworn hatred for gambling! You should handle this matter privately, and don't dirty my eyes!"
Zhang Miaomiao hurriedly said, "Grandpa, you can't do this! Ye Yan used despicable means to steal the Sun family's heirloom! After all, Uncle Sun is your favorite student. How can you just stand by and watch?"
Zhang Songbai snorted coldly.
"Miaomiao, you are wrong to think so. It goes against the truth in your heart!"
"It's a doctor's duty to treat illnesses and save lives. Our Zhang family paid for the medical expenses and expressed sufficient gratitude. I really shouldn't have helped Ye Yan."
"But at the same time, I'm just an old scholar getting paid. What's a proud student? He paid tuition to come to school and has thanked me for my teachings time and again."
"There's no teacher-student relationship between Sun Xuance and me! To put it bluntly, it's just a business deal. Why should I help him?"
Zhang Miaomiao was completely dumbfounded and wanted to cry but had no tears.
She wanted to refute the old man's words, but she couldn't open her mouth.
Because once she opened her mouth to refute, her so-called "I love my Master, but I love the truth more" would become a complete joke.
Zhang Songbai and Zhang Wentao looked at each other and ignored Zhang Miaomiao.
It would be good to let her learn a lesson through today's incident.
"Mr. Ye, please come in! I'd like to take advantage of the birthday banquet today to introduce some people to you!"
Zhang Songbai politely wanted to take Ye Yan into the small hall and sit with him.
Those in the small hall are all real big shots!
He was determined to build up Ye Yan's network of contacts. If these people could help Ye Yan, Zhang Songbai would feel more at ease.
Not to mention the life-saving grace, even the favor of that marrow cleansing pill alone cannot be repaid.
However, Ye Yan shook his head.
"Forget it. You invited me into the small hall only to express your gratitude for saving my life."
"But I can't take advantage of you and take advantage of you. Mr. Zhang, go and greet the other guests. I'll just sit in the hall!"
Zhang Songbai's face suddenly turned dark and he glared at Zhang Miaomiao secretly.
"That... is fine! Miaomiao, please treat Mr. Ye well and don't neglect our guests!"
