Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

As Lu Yiyue said, Director Ni did indeed promote another assistant a month later.

This move surprised those who were already disheartened and envious, while Lou Miaomiao, who had been working hard and had not lost her fighting spirit, was promoted to the position of assistant.

Lou Miaomiao was so happy that she treated Lu Yiyue and Wenwen to lunch that day to celebrate her career progress and to thank Lu Yiyue for her guidance.

half a month later.

Ji Jiale's first kindergarten was grandly opened, a field the Ji family had never ventured into before.

The more companies he had, the busier he became. Ji Jiale started going on business trips frequently, and unexpected things always happened, perhaps it was fate's arrangement.

For this business trip, Ji Jiale did not travel by private jet, but instead bought a first-class ticket. The reason was that the flu was severe recently, and both pilots had contracted it, so Ji Jiale had no choice but to buy his own ticket and fly.

Actually, he could have asked his uncle to borrow a private plane, but Ji Jiale thought it would be nice to fly first class.

The airport was packed with people. Ji Hancheng, Tang Junyao, Han Yue, Lan Yunxi, Su Xue, Lu Jinnan, and Lu Yiyue all had tense and worried expressions on their faces.

Even the usually calm Tang Junyao's palms were sweating with nervousness. Half an hour ago, Ji Jiale's flight encountered turbulence and was unable to land. The flight had been delayed for half an hour, and the results of her inquiries were not optimistic.

Seeing Yao Yao's shoulders tense with nervousness, Ji Hancheng comforted her, though he himself was starting to panic. He remained calm on the surface, saying to put Yao Yao at ease, "It's alright, your son is tough."

Su Xue's eyes were misty with tears. She raised her hand to wipe them away, patted her best friend's shoulder, and began to comfort her, "Our Lelefu is a lucky guy, he'll be alright."

Lan Yunxi's vision blurred, and she held Han Yue's hand tightly, which showed how flustered she was. Sensing Xiaoxi's nervousness, Han Yue gripped her hand tightly in return.

"Sis, let's wait a little longer. Lele will probably be here soon. Nothing will happen."

Tang Junyao nodded, managing to utter a soft "yes" through her lips.

Lu Jinnan stood to the side, pursing his lips and remaining silent. Gone was his usual air of nonchalance and arrogance. He was also praying in his heart, muttering to himself, "If you can come back safely, you'll be promoted to son-in-law."

Lu Yiyue's palms were red from being dug into her hands by her nails. She clenched her fists tightly and stared intently at the exit, hoping that the next person to come out would be the one she longed for. Tears welled up in her eyes, and crystal-clear beads slid down her cheeks. Lan Yunxi saw this and went over to help wipe them away, saying softly, "Don't worry, everything will be alright."

After half an hour.

Suddenly, Ji Hancheng received a message from an unknown number on his phone. After reading the message, he smiled and felt relieved.

Just as everyone was panicking and trying not to think about the worst, before Ji Hancheng could even say what the message was about, a tall, slender man named Ji Jiale emerged from the exit. He was wearing a black suit, pushing a suitcase with one hand and holding a mobile phone in the other.

As soon as I came out, I saw my parents, aunt, uncle, future mothers-in-law, and girlfriend all at the airport...

Before Ji Jiale could react, everyone rushed forward. Lu Yiyue was the fastest to run. At that moment, she didn't care about anything and rushed up to hug Ji Jiale tightly.

It seems that only by holding him like this can I feel his safety and a sense of reality. I'm afraid that if I let go, I will lose him. My eyes are getting hot.

Due to the impact, Ji Jiale subconsciously took a few steps back. His first reaction was to hug Lu Yiyue back, one arm around her waist, the other hand hiding his phone in his pocket. He held the back of her head, sensing her unease, and softly asked, "What's wrong?"

Ji Hancheng and Tang Junyao were gratified to see this scene, while Han Yue watched with great interest as Lu Jinnan froze and could not utter a sound.

Feeling the intense gaze, Lu Jinnan turned his head and glanced at Han Yue, who had a half-smile on his face. He breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly understood something.

Nothing can compare to peace and health; in an instant, all worries vanished.

Seeing the two embracing, Lan Yunxi covered her mouth and laughed happily. It's alright now, there's a rainbow after the storm, that's wonderful. She smiled and took Han Yue's hand. Han Yue intertwined his fingers with hers and kissed her hand.

It took Su Xue a while to react. She became the focus of the entire airport with excitement, her voice so loud it echoed, "That's great, that's great! Lele, starting today you can't call me godmother anymore, just call me Mom."

Seeing her son return safely, Tang Junyao's gloom completely dissipated. She happily put her arm around her best friend, whose smile stretched from ear to ear, and stopped advising her to take it slow. "I have no objection. Let's see how Lele is doing."

She'd definitely be happy if her son had another mother to love him.

Hearing her best friend say she had no objections, Su Xue turned around abruptly, her expression as silly as a fool's. "You have to keep your word! If you go back on your word, I'll destroy you! The little boat won't be repaired!"

Tang Junyao narrowed her eyes and retorted, "When have I ever gone back on my word?"

Seeing that Lu Jinnan was still staring at his daughter and future son-in-law, Han Yue raised an eyebrow and said jokingly, "Congratulations."

Lu Jinnan's emotions were complicated at this moment, and he couldn't quite put his finger on what he was feeling. Logically speaking, when he saw his daughter hugging the brat, he should have gone up and pulled them apart, but his feet felt like they were filled with a thousand pounds of cement and he couldn't move them. Before he saw Ji Jiale, he had been praying that the brat would return safely.

He had no intention of arguing with Han Yue. As soon as he opened his mouth, Ji Hancheng glanced at the two who were still holding on tightly and refused to let go, and gave his son a look, signaling him to take it easy and not drive away his future father-in-law.

Ji Jiale patted Lu Yiyue's back and whispered something in her ear. Lu Yiyue then pulled back her tiptoes, wiped her eyes, and Ji Jiale wiped away her tears with his fingertips and smiled.

However, Ji Jiale still didn't call Su Xue's mother directly, since he still needed his future father-in-law's permission; he just politely addressed everyone.

Ji Hancheng put his hands in his pockets and bumped Lu Jinnan's shoulder with his shoulder. "Ahem, Jinnan, how about we find somewhere to talk?"

"Let's also settle the marriage arrangements," was what Ji Hancheng thought to himself, but he didn't say it aloud.

Upon hearing this, Lu Jinnan, unusually, did not refuse. "Let's talk, let's go."

Yueyue has always been polite and well-mannered since she was a child, and she would never do anything out of line. But today, in front of so many people, she hugged the little boy tightly in public, and he finally understood his daughter's feelings.

Seeing her daughter crying so heartbrokenly, you can tell that this child's affection for that brat is more than just a little bit; it's probably practically ingrained in her bones.

Finally, I let out a sigh.

When Ji Hancheng saw him sigh, he understood his true thoughts. "Name your terms. I'm quite satisfied with my daughter-in-law."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jinnan glanced at Ji Jiale, trying his best not to look at the two people behind him to avoid having a heart attack. He kicked Ji Hancheng in anger, but when he was about to kick Han Yue, Han Yue dodged him with quick eyes and hands.

In contrast, Su Xue was all smiles. Before getting into the car, she kept turning back to look at the two people following behind her. Lele had her arm around Yueyue's waist and was bending down to comfort her. It was a heartwarming scene.

Emperor Hotel.

Ji Jiale and Lu Yiyue sat together, holding hands under the table. On the way here, Lu Yiyue had ridden in Ji Jiale's sports car. Lu Jinnan knew that his daughter had a sense of relief after surviving a disaster, so he respected her wishes.

When Ji Hancheng came in, he found that the head seat had been taken. He was in a good mood today and was happy to accept it. He raised his eyebrows, smiled, and sat down opposite him. "What do you want to eat? Order whatever you like. You need to be full to have the energy to talk."

"Thank you."

Ji Hancheng automatically assumed that he was genuinely grateful and replied, "You're welcome."

Lan Yunxi sat down next to Tang Junyao and smiled, "Brother-in-law Lu, I studied finance. If you can't figure it out, I can help you."

Lan Yunxi also learned to speak with hidden meanings from Han Yue; she spoke of calculating betrothal gifts.

Lu Jinnan glanced meaningfully at Han Yue, who was sitting lazily, and replied with a smile, "We'll settle your Yue-ge's score later."

Ji Hancheng nodded, seemingly agreeing with Xi Xi's words. He stretched out his slender fingers and poured a glass of water for Yao Yao and himself. He then placed the menu on the turntable and turned it to Lu Jinnan. "Come on, have some water to fill your stomach first, so you won't have too much brainpower when doing addition and subtraction later."

Han Yue pressed his tongue against his cheek, suppressing a smile, and agreed, "That makes a lot of sense. Show me, you're the boss today."

The gloom in Lu Yiyue's heart had completely dissipated, but she was still holding hands with Ji Jiale under the table, smiling as she watched the three elders tease each other.

Ji Jiale tilted his head and asked Yueyue in a low voice, "Do you want some hot water?"

Lu Yiyue shook her head.

Su Xue couldn't stop laughing. She had finally waited for the day when her daughter would talk about marriage. She kept leaning in and talking to Tang Junyao, and occasionally slapped Tang Junyao's bottom.

The scene was almost unbearable to watch.

Lu Jinnan finally listened to Ji Hancheng's advice and ordered a table full of dishes without hesitation, literally eating and calculating as he went.

After the dishes were served, Ji Jiale poured boiling water over Lu Yiyue's cup again, then handed the chopsticks to Yueyue, and then turned the turntable in front of Yueyue, carefully asking if she wanted to eat.

Lu Yiyue was taken care of the whole time. She didn't need to turn the turntable to eat whatever she wanted. Ji Jiale seemed to be able to read Lu Yiyue's mind. As soon as she finished eating, the turntable would rotate to her.

Lu Jinnan noticed all the little details out of the corner of his eye and was quite satisfied. His daughter deserved to be cherished by a man like him.

Su Xue naturally saw it too, and her smile widened even more. To save face for the two children, she leaned close to Lu Jinnan's ear and asked, "Isn't my taste good? Look how good Lele is to our Yueyue. You should be secretly happy."

Lu Jinnan didn't answer Su Xue's question, but he had already accepted it in his heart. He had seen how his son treated his daughter all this time, and asked in return, "Isn't that how I treat you?"

Su Xue was in a great mood today, like she had won the lottery, so she didn't hold back her words, "You're so good to me too, I love you."

Everyone: "............." Once Su Xue goes crazy, there's no saving her, no cure.
