"So what? Who I want to be with is my business, right?" he asked.
"Cough… Cough..." Old Master Yi seemed a little displeased. He stirred a little and coughed. After a long pause, he asked, "Do you want to repeat your father's mistakes that much?"
"What's the matter? Do you think Ling Yiran might kill me too?" Yi Jinli asked in reply.
Old Master Yi was silent. After a while, he suddenly said, "That boy from the Gu family has fallen for that woman too. He doesn't know that Ling Yiran is the one he has been looking for. What do you think your chances are if he finds out? Isn't he part of the reason why you chose to break up? You're afraid Ling Yiran would betray you because of him, aren't you?"
Yi Jinli stared at Old Master Yi. One could say that the person who knew him best in the world was actually the old man in front of him!
"I just have to keep her from betraying me, right?" asked Yi Jinli.
"One’s heart is the most unpredictable thing. Do you think you have control over whether someone will betray you or not?" said Old Master Yi.
Yi Jinli pursed his lips and said nothing.
Old Master Yi continued with great earnestness, "That woman will destroy you! My days are numbered. I don't want a woman to ruin the Yi family after my death."
"Don't lay a hand on her." Yi Jinli stood up, walked to the bedside, and looked down at the old man from a commanding position. "If you touch her even a little, then I'll ruin the Yi family before you die. You don't even have to wait till your demise."
"You..." Old Master Yi glared at his grandson, but he could feel that he was not joking.
'Is the heir I trained willing to risk the entire Yi family for a woman?'
…
Ling Yiran met with Sis Zhuo, Lil Yan, and Qin Lianyi on Sunday, mainly for Lil Yan's kindergarten issue. Bai Tingxin was also there.
Zhuo Qianyun thanked Qin Lianyi repeatedly as soon as she knew that she was the one who asked Bai Tingxin to help Lil Yan find a kindergarten.
"Oh, don't mention it," said Qin Lianyi as she waved her hand. All she could think about was the little one.
'He's... exactly what Yiran described. He's more handsome and cuter than in the photos. My heart will melt if I have such a son!'
Qin Lianyi bent down and said to Lil Yan, "I'll be overjoyed if you hug me and give me a kiss!"
