"You've only known me for a few days, Master Wen? And you're already fantasizing about married life?"

Taking off the book covering his face, the man revealed a face with sharp contours and deep features. He squinted his eyes and looked at Wen Can: "Are you sure you are just using him as a tool?"

"Don't put it so harshly. Our partnership is mutually beneficial."

"In a partnership, would you imagine someone using cold violence against you after marriage?"

"..." Wen Can was stunned for a moment, "Is this abnormal?"

"Of course for you."

The man snorted and laughed, picked up an orange from the table, threw it up and caught it again, "Seeing you like this, I'm starting to get curious about Ye Kong."

"It's rude to be curious about someone else's fiancée."

"...Look, is this normal?"

"Don't you know that I'm a very possessive person? Even if it's just a partnership, she is still my fiancée for now."

Wen Can smiled and said, "Besides, I don't know why, but I always feel that she looks familiar."

"Didn't you say you saw me at your grandfather's house?"

"It's not that kind of familiarity, it's..." Wen Can thought about it and didn't know how to describe it.

Or maybe he wasn't even sure in his heart whether that familiar feeling was real.

So he shook his head and said, "But none of this matters. What matters is that I have already informed my family that I will hold an engagement ceremony within a year."

"..." The man stopped throwing and catching the orange. He turned to look at Wen Can, "What's your father's reaction?"

"If you react so easily, do I have to endure it for so many years?"

The sun was setting in the distance, filling the balcony with golden orange afterglow.

Wen Can sat in this golden color, with a half-bright smile on his face, and his tone was slow: "But it doesn't matter, he will always react."

"After all, my fiancée is really lethal."

Without the disguised gloom, Wen Can now showed the side that people were most familiar with.

He always smiles, completely neutralizing the natural arrogance brought about by his cold white skin and overly perfect facial features, making everyone mistakenly believe that he is a gentle person.

Seeing the smile on his face, the other person also snorted and fell back into the recliner, saying lazily, "Okay, then I'll wait and see."

-Have you heard? The third son of the Ye family who made Du Ruowei lose face, today forced Ye Baozhu to faint standing in the sun!

-It is said that Aunt Fang had a quarrel with the old lady. Not only did she move out of the Ye family with Ye Kong, she also wanted to divorce Mr. Ye!

-The new third child of the Ye family is already invincible. Is there no one who can control her? What about Ye Tingchu and Ye Zhen? Aren't these two siblings more powerful than each other? Can't they control a newcomer?

……

News about Ye Kong was flooding the Yuzhou internal network again.

Ye Haichuan and Ye Tingchu naturally knew about the new situation at home, but no one of them said a word. Even inside the Ye residence, Ye Haichuan issued a strict order that no one was allowed to tell Old Lady Ye about Ye Baozhu's fainting.

With his order, even if Aunt Ye was dissatisfied, she didn't dare to say anything.

As for Ye Baozhu herself, she received a call from Ye Haichuan as soon as she returned to Ye's house.

"Don't let the relationship between your grandma and Ye Kong deteriorate any further. It might really make your grandma sick, but it won't have any impact on Ye Kong himself."

He said very straightforwardly on the phone: "You don't want to completely lose your grandma's protection, do you?"

"..."

Ye Baozhu held the phone tightly, squeezing it so hard that her finger bones bulged. She gritted her teeth and held back her tears as she asked, "Dad, why do you do this to me?"

"..."

"Is blood relationship so important? It can make you treat me as a stranger overnight!"

In the past, Ye Baozhu would never dare to speak to him like this.

Ye Haichuan is not a particularly traditional father. He and Fang Siwan love each other very much, and when he is not busy, he often accompanies the children to participate in parent-child activities. However, perhaps he was born with a cold face, and his aura from being in a high position for a long time is really scary. None of the three children dared to get close to him and act coquettishly. Ye Baozhu has been spoiled since she was a child. After making mistakes and being scolded by Ye Haichuan several times, she didn't even dare to speak loudly in front of him.

This was probably the first time in many years that Ye Baozhu almost cried into the phone: "I have called you dad for twenty years, and I have really been your daughter for twenty years! But you have only met her a few times! You actually threatened me for her?!"

"This is more like advice than a threat."

Ye Haichuan on the other end of the phone didn't even sigh for a second. He said calmly, "As you said, even if the blood relationship is fake, these twenty years of getting along cannot be fake. That's why I hope you can have a happy future."

"You are so partial to Ye Kong, and you actually said that you hope I can be happy?! Do you know that heatstroke can also kill people?!" Ye Baozhu almost burst into tears, "Dad, do you know what I was thinking before I fainted today? I was thinking, if I could just die now, it would be great! I wouldn't have to be afraid and suffer for you anymore... I feel so bad, I have never suffered this kind of pain since I was a child..."

"..."

After a long time, a long sigh was heard from the other side.

"You can still say such things in front of me, which means that you still have infinite hope in your heart - you hope that I and even all the Ye family members can choose you and abandon Ye Kong."

"……I don't."

"Whether you have it or not, I'll tell you the result first, Ye Baozhu. It's impossible - at least as long as I'm here, the Ye family will never make such a choice." Ye Haichuan's voice was flat. "So you'd better wake up. Getting along well with her and letting her get along well with grandma is the only way for you to regain stability in the Ye family. If you can't do it, at least don't make trouble, otherwise you will be the only one who pays the price in the end."

"...Why?" Ye Baozhu even forgot to cry. She murmured, "Why do you treat me like this? Why are you so heartless?"

"I am actually the only one who is heartless, Ye Baozhu. Start to change your mind now. You can still continue to be the favored young lady of the Ye family."

Ye Haichuan quickly ended the call, leaving a final sentence: "Don't make your mother sad."

The call was hung up.

Ye Baozhu looked at her phone for a long time before slowly turning her head to look at Ye Zhen in the driver's seat.

"Brother, isn't it Ye Kong who made Mom sad?"

Ye Zhen looked at her face.

Over the years, he was used to seeing his sister being well-behaved or arrogant, but this was the first time he saw her crying so heartbrokenly.

The anger that had originally been a little bit softened a lot in an instant.

He took out a few pieces of paper and handed them over, then slowly turned his face away and said slowly: "You all make her very sad, but towards Ye Kong, Mom still feels endless guilt."

"Just like what you said, you have been happy for twenty years, and you want to share this happiness with Ye Kong - but this happiness should have belonged to Ye Kong in the first place, and you just got everything that should have belonged to her by mistake. Compared to you, Ye Kong, who has developed this kind of personality, is of course more heartbreaking."

Ye Baozhu suddenly realized, and infinite regret flashed in her eyes.

I shouldn't have said that if I had known.

She thought resentfully: I was so focused on bringing up memories of my mother that I forgot that these were the things Ye Kong didn't have. Instead, I made things difficult for Ye Kong. How unlucky!

"But," Ye Baozhu lowered her head and whispered, "The fact that she has developed such a lawless character shows that she has had a good life in the past twenty years. If no one indulged her, how could she be so..."

"..." Ye Zhen couldn't answer, so he just let her wipe the tears off her face, "Okay, you're already in poor health, and thinking too much will only make things worse. Go back to sleep."

The two entered Ye's house one after another.

At the same time, Ye Haichuan, who had hung up the phone, raised his head and took in the building in front of him completely.

——"Flower Box."

As soon as he read out those three words, an old man with gray hair walked out.

Ye Haichuan straightened his tie, strode forward, extended his hand, and bowed slightly with unprecedented respect: "You are Dean Sun, right? I have been looking forward to meeting you for a long time."

"I am Ye Kong's biological father, Ye Haichuan."
