Gu Xiyao smiled warmly but did not say a word. His emotions were like a person who knew himself how to drink water, an outsider would not be able to help him.
Not far away, Gu Xiaotao ran towards them across the lawn. Gu Xiyao stood up and carried the child in his arms. "You should go to sleep.
"Good night, Third Uncle." The little ghost spoke in a childish voice.
"Good night." When Ji Weiyang looked at the child, his gaze was gentle yet also carried a trace of bitterness. It was also unknown when he and Zhan Yan would be able to have their own children.
In the same pitch-black and tranquil night, Zhan Yan and Wei Jingnian sat in the study room and conversed with each other. After Ji Weiyang left, pressure came from all directions. Even their father's work had met with resistance.
"Dad, I'm sorry, it was my willfulness that made it difficult for you." Zhan Yan lowered her gaze, her small face slightly pale. Her cold fingertips gripped the burning tea cup.
Wei Jingnian patted her shoulder and smiled lovingly, "I have been in the government for dozens of years, so many things have long been seen through and forgotten. "Yan Yan Yan, you can do as you please, and don't let anyone make you feel wronged."
In the hearts of all the world's parents, Wei Jingnian had lived for most of his life, and had experienced all sorts of storms and waves, and he had long underestimated fame and power. The one who made him worried the most was Zhan Yan.
"Dad, thank you." She held her father's old and firm arm, tears shining in her eyes.
"It's getting late, let's go back early." "Since Shan Shan and her wife are here, I won't keep you any longer." Wei Jingnian spoke vaguely, but the meaning in his words was obvious. After all, Zhan Yan and Gao Yuxuan had shared a similar experience in the past, so it was unavoidable for them to feel awkward sleeping under the same roof.
"Dad, then I'll be leaving first." Zhan Yan picked up her jacket and walked downstairs.
First floor's living room, Wei Shanshan was currently sitting on the sofa and watching TV. Gao Yuxuan was reading a newspaper by the side.
The evening entertainment program was broadcasting an interview with the Jade Goddess, Ding Yifei. Seeing Zhan Yan walk down the stairs, Wei Shanshan spat out the melon seeds in her mouth and spoke in a mocking tone, "Wei Zhanyan, you're spreading the romantic story of your man, aren't you going to look before leaving?"
Zhan Yan subconsciously stopped in her tracks. On the television, Ding Yi Fei was covered in jewels as she answered the host's question.
Host: Recently, entertainment magazines have been gossiping that you are a third party in Yuanfan Group's CEO Ji's marriage. Is there anything you would like to explain to the audience?
Ding Yi Fei: I just met Vayon too late, love never divided, the person who is not loved is a third party.
The host made a face. So you're not rumored to be with CEO Ji?
Ding Yi Fei: Of course, we love each other very much. We can no longer lose each other. We are all trying to solve anything that prevents us from being in everything.
There was an uproar. The host then asked, "Miss Ding, are you saying …" Will Ji always divorce for you?
Ding Yi Fei smiled but did not say anything, obviously tacitly agreeing.
