She regretted divorcing the female CEO.

"Yes! She's still a child! How can you say such things?" Si Yang said seriously!

Zhao Zixi was amused by Si Yang's antics.

"I mean, what does she know?" Zhao Zixi said, both amused and exasperated.

"That won't work either."

"Let's not talk about this anymore," Si Yang said, shaking his head.

"Don't even think about it," Zhao Zixi sneered.

"Meng Wan!" Zhao Zixi called out!

A soft laugh rang out, and Ye Mengwan appeared.

"Here, hold Bao'er for me." Zhao Zixi looked at the little girl in her arms with affection, then handed her to Ye Mengwan.

"I'm going to fight him to the death today!" Zhao Zixi said through gritted teeth!

After today! I don't even know when we'll see each other again. This guy is like a dragon, appearing and disappearing without a trace.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Hearing this makes me so uneasy!" Si Yang said helplessly!

"Anyway, you said it, and I agreed. You have to give me an explanation." Zhao Zixi looked at Si Yang and decided to go all out.

"Are you just being unreasonable?!" Si Yang said helplessly.

"Hmph, I don't care." Zhao Zixi snorted coldly.

Si Yang rubbed his temples in anguish. "Can you let me think about it?"

"This is so sudden."

"Sure! I'll wait here for you to decide." Zhao Zixi crossed her arms and looked at Si Yang.

"Eh."

"There are people like you?" Si Yang blinked.

"Aren't you forcing a good woman into prostitution?!" Si Yang said helplessly.

"You can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth, is that how you describe it?" Zhao Zixi gritted her teeth.

"No, alright, stop messing around, how about we just stay here?" Si Yang said to Zhao Zixi.

"snort!"

"That's settled then." Zhao Zixi hummed softly, a slight smile curving her lips. That was enough.

I was hoping this jerk would confess his feelings or something.

Not to mention her, none of the women around Si Yang probably have that honor.

Perhaps Ye Mengwan had heard some sweet words.

Zhao Zixi left, and Si Yang glared fiercely at the women.

If it weren't for their encouragement, Zhao Zixi would never have had the courage to do this.

Ye Qingyan and the others just smiled and didn't say anything.

The man had just been angry last time, so they wouldn't dare to use any tricks.

They can give you plenty of courage, but as for whether it will succeed or not, they dare not force it.

Ultimately, there are selfish motives involved.

Zhao Zixi can be said to be the person Ye Mengwan trusts most in the company.

Having come all the way through Mengwan Technology, Zhao Zixi knows even more than they do.

It's better to keep a caring person at home.

Have you not seen the story of Rong Jinran of the Rong family?

They've already accepted Yan Qingcheng and the others, so what's one more Zhao Zixi?

"Damn it, another room has been added without me even realizing it." Si Yang slapped his forehead and sighed.

Upon hearing this, the women burst into laughter.

"I wonder which room you chose tonight?" Liu Mingyi asked Si Yang softly.

"You're the one." Si Yang nodded at Liu Mingyi.

Liu Mingyi smiled, glanced at Ye Qingyan, and a slight curve appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Ye Qingyan had agreed last time, but backed out when the time came.

In this respect, no one can compare to Liu Mingyi.

Who says family members can't be cunning? There will always be backstabbing and intrigue.

Ye Qingyan! If you can't handle this, who can you blame?

Time slips away unnoticed.

Before we knew it, the little girl's one-month birthday arrived.

Lei Laohu and his son came from Beijing, as did Rong Jinran and Rong Xiuzhu.

As for the Rong family member who is unwilling to make trouble, I've already seen that.

Representatives from the Ye family, the Li family, the Yan family, and even the Hua family will be coming.

However, Si Yang refused.

I don't like crowds.

If these few companies don't come, then no one else will.

So, it was a family dinner.

The little girl was held in Ye Mengwan's arms, looking adorable.

Lei Laohu's withered hands held the little girl's small hands, showing endless affection for them.

"This girl is beautiful," Lei Laohu said with a broad smile.

Lei Ting couldn't help but sigh; he had hardly ever seen the old man smile in his entire life.

The older I get, the more I like children.

He never seemed to like his granddaughter much.

Perhaps it's because he likes Si Yang that he extends his affection to Si Yang's family.

Lei Ting and Si Yang stood outside the door smoking. "Perhaps the old man's biggest regret in life is that you are not a member of the Lei family," Lei Ting said with a strange sigh.

Si Yang! Actually, he's more like a member of the Lei family.

Si Yang smiled but didn't reply.

At noon, Ye Qingyan arranged the meal. After lunch, Si Yang accompanied Lei Laohu for a walk in the courtyard.

Lei Laohu looked at Si Yang with a strange sense of emotion in his eyes.

"You followed behind me like this when we first met."

"Unfortunately, I didn't know you were my grandson at that time," Lei Laohu sighed.

I feel a bit sentimental.

"Even if I knew I wouldn't go to Paradise Island, it would only make things more difficult for you." Si Yang smiled, his tone calm.

"Too!"

"You were the most suitable person for that time. Besides, if other people's children can die, why can't my grandson, Lei Laohu's, die?" Lei Laohu smiled calmly.

The two men sat down in front of the pavilion, and Lei Laohu asked Si Yang for a cigarette.

He gently lit it, and a touch of vicissitude appeared on that weathered face.

"So when Rong Jinran went and vandalized the Lei family's house, I didn't say a word."

"It's beneficial to the country, but ultimately we owe the Lei family."

"Actually, I don't blame you for not being close to me. I know you've never cared about Paradise Island, but the kind of person I am doesn't deserve anyone's kindness, because I'll inevitably get hurt."

"As for the conspiracy theories that others have mentioned, there are none. I won't deliberately target anyone."

"Not to mention someone like you who has made great contributions to the country." Lei Laohu smiled, took a drag of his cigarette, and exhaled a puff of smoke.

His eyes looked slightly hazy.

"This time, neither the Ye family, nor the Li family, nor even I, spoke up."

Ultimately, we just want to see your decision.

"good!"

"You can't have everything. Greed is the most deadly thing."

"As elders, we will help you as much as we can, as long as it doesn't violate our principles."

"That old man from the Rong family is too impatient."

"Actually, if we had our current status and position by the time we were forty, we wouldn't have anything to worry about."

"Of course, being young has its advantages. Even if you make a mistake, it's not too late," the old man said softly.

"I'm not used to having others worry about or give me advice on everything."

"Each age has its own perspective and vision."

"When you reach your age, you may look back on this time and think it was all utterly incompetent."

"But at my age, I felt that doing so was the right thing to do, so I did it."

"I can never learn your selflessness in this lifetime. Maybe I could in the past, but now I don't have that mindset anymore."

"And I can't learn the Rong family's scheming and plotting."

"Too profound, and too troublesome."

"Everyone has their own principles for making a living; you're not wrong about that, and neither is he."

"It's just not suitable for me."

"It's like my blood will never get cold."

"As for Si Yue's matter, if you asked me to choose now, I would still do the same thing, even more ruthless and without leaving any room for maneuver." Si Yang smiled.

Lei Laohu is for the country.

The Rong family planned and schemed for the family and the clan.

As for Si Yang, he didn't have many expectations in his life. He just wanted to take good care of the people around him and make sure they all lived well.

"Heh." Lei Laohu let out an unconscious laugh.

He glanced at Si Yang and said, "Sometimes, Old Man Rong's words are quite interesting."

"How so?" Si Yang asked curiously!

How could two people who should never see each other again actually be communicating?

"He said you're the most unteachable person he's ever met," Lei Laohu laughed heartily!

Si Yang was both amused and exasperated.

"However, I do think he's too controlling. Everyone has their own personality and nature."

"It's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature."

"Old Rong is a person that people don't like, but that doesn't stop them from appreciating him."

"He's more like a machine, executing a program. He doesn't have any particular hobbies or personality traits. He can be slick, sarcastic, or even subservient, as long as it helps him achieve his goals."

"People like that are terrifying," Lei Laohu said softly.

"The rest, even those at our level, all have their own personalities."

"When I first came to Beijing, many people didn't think I would succeed."

"There are many people who talk behind people's backs."

"Did you really think that controversy surrounding you was only directed at you?"

"Ultimately, a lot of people want to see what I'll do."

"Too light, no good; too heavy, I'm afraid I'll have to endure some backlash."

"Even that person doesn't like me."

Fortunately, everything is under control.

"That old man who died told me to thank Mengwan."

"He said that when you were with Ye Mengwan in Zhonghai, he saw humanity in you for the first time." Lei Laohu sighed, his eyes reddening slightly.

human nature!

He's just a human being!

But Si Yang lived more like a numb, cold machine.

Living mechanically, without ambition, without joy or anger.

"I didn't think that much about it at the time," Si Yang smiled.

Perhaps it was a stroke of inspiration, but he brought Ye Mengwan along.

Perhaps he wanted to tell some people that all he wanted to do from now on was live a good life and stay with her.

If you can't spare me, then leave us here too.

If you're going to let it go, then let's leave together.

"It's been a long time, and I've probably forgotten what I was thinking back then," Si Yang said with a calm smile.

Lei Laohu glanced at it, smiled, and extinguished the cigarette he had half-smoked.

He rarely smokes now that he's gotten older.

The first time in recent years was on Chang'an Avenue, when Si Yang ordered it for him.

The young man who had caused such a huge disaster was so calm and composed.

Only when he stood on the street did he see his bewilderment and his sorrow.

That scene still makes me heartbroken to this day.

Whether you look at it from his current perspective or from the perspective of his family, it doesn't matter!

This time, it was a celebratory cigarette; his grandson lit it for him to celebrate having a daughter.

"If you've forgotten, then forget."

"Now that our family and business are much larger, things are not what they used to be," Lei Laohu said earnestly.

Si Yang smiled upon hearing this, "He's going to be a father after all."

"It's good that you can think that way."

"I'm glad to have someone as junior as you, but my only worry is that you'll cause trouble. It'll really give me a headache," Lei Laohu laughed.

Even if other people's children are good-for-nothings, they can't cause any major trouble.

At most, they'll just grab a little money.

But Si Yang is different after all.

Every move he made was earth-shattering.

Si Yang smiled and did not refute.

Is the truth.

Now that I'm a parent, I can understand this feeling.

What would a father do if his own daughter caused a terrible disaster?

If you put yourself in someone else's shoes, you'll understand many things.

So now Si Yang's temper is not so direct; he is more tolerant and understanding.

"Alright, it's getting late, we should go."

"I've never had a moment of peace in my life."

"When you were young, you desperately tried to climb higher. Your uncle was a half-baked expert, and your mother didn't raise you well either."

"All I've lived my whole life is about being willful."

"Sometimes I think about it and I even regret that I shouldn't have married her off to Rong Xiudao."

"But now I feel fortunate. If I hadn't married Rong Xiudao, you probably wouldn't exist in this world."

"Actually, you don't resemble anyone else, you resemble your mother the most."

"She's the kind of person who acts without considering the consequences, and is extreme and unreasonable."

"Once you act on impulse, you disregard everything else."

"However, in terms of composure and calmness, he's just like that beast Rong Xiudao." Lei Laohu chuckled self-deprecatingly.

Si Yang didn't say anything.

He is himself, whether he resembles someone else or not.

As for this family, that's how it is. He's not close to Lei Man, and even less so to Rong Xiudao.

I don't want to take care of either of them.

If you really want to get close, just listen to Lei Laohu's tone.

It's impossible for the two of them to get back together; they'll probably only have more trouble then.

If you don't hate someone to the extreme, you won't call your former son-in-law a beast.

"Alright, let's go." Lei Laohu stood up. He was tall and no shorter than Si Yang, and his posture was straight. He had never bent over in his entire life.

The old man patted Si Yang on the shoulder and left with his hands behind his back.

Thunder followed the old man.

When Si Yang entered the room, Rong Jinran was holding the little girl, while Rong Xiuzhu was watching longingly from the side.

Grandnephews are such a nuisance.

She's infuriating and loves to cry.

But my adorable little niece is really cute.

"Sis, can I have a hug?" Rong Xiuzhu said longingly!

"Get lost, you can't even hug a fart." Si Yang walked to Rong Jinran's side and glanced at his precious daughter.

"Don't think I don't know. You took my son out to play, and he almost lost him while chatting with a foreign girl," Si Yang said with a dark face.

"Bullshit, it's because your son said I didn't take him out, so he told his great-grandfather that I hit him."

"Damn it, he's so young and he already knows how to blackmail people." Rong Xiuzhu said irritably!

"And then you abandoned my son?" Si Yang asked!

"Nonsense! I was just talking when the little rascal sneaked off to someone's supermarket to ask for candy," Rong Xiuzhu said coldly.

"Damn it, what kind of life is my son living? He can't even afford a candy?" Si Yang roared!

"Your teeth are all ruined, who would dare feed you?" Rong Xiuzhu said with a dark face.

"Why didn't you secretly slip him a couple of pieces? If you were even a little more tactful, he wouldn't have framed you." Si Yang rolled his eyes at Rong Xiuzhu.

"Hey, that's right!" Rong Xiuzhu slapped his forehead.

Rong Jinran rolled her eyes at Si Yang upon hearing this, "Stop teasing him. If you make the child cry, the old man will at most scold him a couple of times. But if you secretly slip him candy, it would be strange if the old man didn't break his legs."

"Old man, you're really going all out!" Rong Jinran said helplessly.
