Chapter 118 - 118: Yan Yan Is My Granddaughter
After Lu Lehua finished explaining all the “good deeds” Nan Yan had been up to lately to Old Master An, she said with disdain, “Dad, Nan Yan is truly incorrigible. She’s wild and untamed, completely unsuitable to stay in the An Family. Due to her actions, the An Family has become a laughingstock. If we continue to keep her, her troubles will only escalate!”
Old Master An’s face lost his smile, his expression turning serious as he said coldly, “Right, Yan Yan shouldn’t continue staying in the An Family. Since you already have Yao Yao as a daughter, that’s sufficient. Let Yan Yan stay with us from now on.
“Since you all don’t want to take care of her, this old man will personally take care of her!”
Old Master An couldn’t believe that Nan Yan could do such things. His poor granddaughter had obviously suffered grievances. In the eyes of her biased parents, they only saw An Muyao and completely ignored her!
But they didn’t consider that everything An Muyao enjoyed was originally meant for Nan Yan!
It was An Muyao who occupied everything that originally belonged to Nan Yan. She even took away the love of their parents. Nan Yan had tried so hard to integrate into the An Family, yet nobody valued her!
Although Old Master An rarely visited the An Family, he still had ways to know what was going on there.
He simply felt that Nan Yan needed her parents’ company more, bringing her over to accompany this old man, he was afraid she might find it bothersome.
Moreover, his health was deteriorating, and he didn’t know how much longer he would live. He didn’t want to create a rift between Nan Yan and her parents.
Now he realized he was wrong.
He should have kept Nan Yan by his side as soon as she returned and not let her go to the An Family!
But now, he regretted it, and it was too late.
“Dad? What do you mean by this?”
When Lu Lehua came to see Old Master An, she intended to drive Nan Yan out of the An Family. But Old Master An clearly wanted to keep her by his side and not let them raise her.
Even An Muyao, who had been in the An Family for eighteen years, didn’t receive such treatment!
Lu Lehua’s eyes reddened.
“Just as it sounds.” Old Master An’s gaze turned chilly, his tone resolute. “From now on, I will take care of Yan Yan, and it has nothing to do with you.”
“Dad! How can you do this? Yao Yao is also your granddaughter. She has always been filial to you. How can you show such favoritism?”
Lu Lehua couldn’t remain calm, and her voice grew louder as she spoke.
Residing in the old residence had a different significance to the outside world.
Old Master An simply looked at her calmly and said, “Yan Yan is my biological granddaughter.”
Lu Lehua’s face turned pale. She wanted to say something else but was stopped by An Mulin.
Even An Mulin hadn’t expected that Grandfather would value Nan Yan so much.
Even though her reputation had been tarnished, he was still willing to keep her by his side.
“Nothing more to discuss. You may leave now and don’t anger me further.” Old Master An didn’t mince his words, issuing a clear order to leave.
He had no intention of engaging in further conversation with Lu Lehua.
Seeing his displeasure, Lu Lehua didn’t want to provoke him any further, so she stamped her foot and left with An Mulin.
After Lu Lehua left, Old Master An changed into more formal attire in his room.
Leaning on his cane, he walked out, instructing the person serving him, “Elder
Tian, come with me to Zhide High School.”
Elder Tian, considering the recent words he had heard, asked involuntarily, “Is
Master planning to visit Miss Nan Yan?”
“Yes.” Old Master An nodded and said with a serious tone, “This girl has been wronged outside, and she hasn’t said a word about it to me. Now she has been framed like this. If I don’t step in, won’t others think she has no one to protect
Elder Tian’s estimation of Nan Yan’s position in the family underwent a significant shift. This young lady, who received little favor from the An Family, seemed to be more important to Old Master An than anyone else.
Even more important than his four grandsons!
In the afternoon, Nan Yan was substituting for Zhang Lingxian as a teacher.
She sat in front of Zhang Lingxian’s computer in the computer classroom, waiting for the other four members of the group.
Yin Yichen and the others arrived at the computer classroom shortly afterward.
Upon seeing Nan Yan, Yin Yichen couldn’t help but sneer, “Team Leader Nan is surprisingly calm. She’s being torn apart online and vet seems unaffected.” Although the other three didn’t say anything, their attitudes toward Nan Yan had greatly shifted due to the online situation.
They genuinely admired Nan Yan’s skills.
However, character was even more important.
Leaning lazily against the backrest, Nan Yan raised her eyebrows and said playfully, “Those things can all be deleted with a few clicks from me. Not a trace will be left behind. Do you know why I haven’t intervened?”
It seemed they hadn’t considered this question.
Now that Nan Yan brought it up, they started to feel that there might be something more to this situation.
After all, with Nan Yan’s abilities, she would know the moment something was uploaded online. If she wanted to delete or prevent exposure, it would be a simple task.
This was the terrifying aspect of a computer expert in the era of intelligent networking. They could manipulate public opinion and even alter the course of events.
However, why hadn’t Nan Yan intervened and instead allowed the situation to escalate and explode?
This was a good question.
Feng Tianji thought for a moment and asked thoughtfully, “Team Leader Nan, is the truth different from what’s been exposed online?”
“Those matters have nothing to do with you guys.” Nan Yan’s expression remained unchanged. “You should focus on your class.”
“Oh, right. Zhang Teacher has something to attend to, so for the next few days, I will be substituting for him.”
“You?” Yin Yichen sneered. “Having high skills doesn’t necessarily mean you can teach effectively.”
“Classmate Yin, if you think I’m not up to the task, you’re welcome to leave and not attend the class.” disdain flashed in Nan Yan’s eyes. “Although I’m not particularly thrilled about taking on this task, since Teacher Zhang has asked, I’ll naturally do my best to substitute for this class.”
With that said, it was clear that Yin Yichen had no intention of staying to listen to Nan Yan teach. He gave a cold laugh and said, “I’ll skip.”
Having spoken, he turned around and left.
“To the three of you, do you want to stay and listen? If not, then I’ll head back,” Nan Yan asked.
Feng Shaojie smiled, “Since Teacher Zhang has arranged it, we will definitely attend.”
Zhao Ziang nodded, “That’s right. I’ve never heard Team Leader Nan teach before. This is a chance to experience it.”
Feng Tianji saw that both of them wanted to stay. He had nothing to do even if he went back. He wanted to see if Nan Yan had the ability to be given such a big responsibility by Zhang Lingxian.
However…..
After the class was over, the expressions of the three were completely different as they looked at Nan Yan.
“Team Leader Nan, how many days will Teacher Zhang be away for?”
“Can you ask him to extend his absence a bit longer?”
“Just say it directly, Team Leader Nan. Can you ask Teacher Zhang if you can continue teaching us permanently?”
What a remarkable individual she was!
Her understanding and insight into computers were truly unparalleled!
Compared to Zhang Lingxian, her teaching was not only deeper but also easier to comprehend. After just one class, they felt as if a veil had been lifted from their understanding!
Hearing their words, Nan Yan raised her gaze and said with a half-smile, half-smirk, “Do you all think I’m that free?”
The three of them: ‘
