The anchor I was supposed to meet turned out to be my student.

Tongtong turned her head and looked up at me, but didn't say anything. I don't know if she has given up her suspicions from last night.

I reached out and patted their heads, saying, "Study hard, good luck on your exams, I'm going out now."

"Where to?" Tongtong turned her head and asked very sensitively.

"I'm going out to take care of some business."

Bi Antong squinted, scrutinizing him suspiciously.

"I promise I won't go looking for other girls."

"Tch, whether I find it or not is none of my business." Tongtong turned back to continue reviewing the course materials.

His hand slid from her hair down to her beautiful back, gently stroking her as he said, "Remember not to argue with Ye Zhi anymore, and promise me you'll get along well with me."

"Heh." Tongtong only uttered a cold interjection.

This made me feel like she was angry. I thought about what she wanted most right now and wanted to get something to cheer her up... and I had an idea.

I moved to her other side and whispered in her ear, "Let's go to a hotel together sometime. It's not convenient at home with everyone watching."

In an instant, Tongtong's ears, which were hidden by a few strands of hair, began to turn red at a visible speed, and the color spread all the way to her cheeks.

Then she hit me and scolded, "Who gave you permission to say such perverted things! Go away, go away!"

I reluctantly got up and walked out, but suddenly I heard Bi Antong calling my name from behind. She stopped beside me and lowered her head.

"Specifically, when... when you come back later?"

This girl is really impatient...

"I'll go when I have time, but I'm not entirely sure about the specifics."

Tongtong kicked me, her face flushed, and said, "Quickly tell me a specific time, I... I still need to prepare what underwear to wear..."

"The birthday present Lehan gave you?"

Her face turned even redder, but she still nodded with her head down.

"But you're in exam week right now, and you seem to be busy studying and don't have any free time."

Tongtong seemed reluctant to miss this opportunity and quickly added, "The exam isn't important... no, it's just that I've already finished reviewing, so I don't need to study tonight..."

I gave her a strange look; she avoided my gaze. She was even more anxious than I was…

"Then let's do it tomorrow night."

"OK."

Tongtong was so embarrassed that she quickly walked back.

I continued walking toward the garage, but a few seconds later, Tongtong called me again, came to my side again, and grabbed my sleeve. I looked at her in confusion.

"How many times?"

"Clam?"

"How many times do it?" Tongtong said, both embarrassed and angry.

I chuckled and said, "It's up to you. Just keep going until you surrender, like that day."

She pinched my waist.

"Then come pick me up tomorrow afternoon after my exam. Make sure you go early, otherwise staying up too late will affect the exam the next day... Got it?" Tongtong said to me, blushing.

"Yes Yes Yes……"

I've never heard of someone going to a hotel to do *that* at 6 p.m.; she's just too impatient.

I ruffled her hair and reminded her, "You need to study hard tonight and do well on the exam tomorrow. Don't let these things distract you. I'll reward you even more when you do well on the exam."

"Hmph, I was clearly rewarding you... you just took advantage of me..."

Newton said that forces are reciprocal, so taking advantage of someone is also reciprocal...

As I was about to open the car door and get in, Tongtong stopped me again, and I turned to look at her, wondering if she had something else to tell me.

She glanced at the large sports sedan, her hands clasped in front of her abdomen, her legs slightly together, and said shyly, avoiding eye contact, "This, this car has a pretty high roof... and the back seats are quite spacious too..."

"Hmm?" I looked at her with interest.

"Ming, we don't necessarily have to go to the hotel tomorrow, so we can save some money..."

You're just looking for thrills, aren't you?

"Tongtong, you are so thrifty and good at managing the household..." I gently patted her head.

"It's alright... After all, you can't waste money..."

Am I trying to compliment you a little...?

……

After agreeing to Tongtong's request, I drove to Ye Zhi's father Ye Chengmai's house, which was the address her stepmother Xiao Wan had given me.

I rang the doorbell, and Xiao Wan opened the door for me. I had already told her in advance that I was coming to see Ye Chengmai.

As we walked further into the villa, Xiao Wan reminded me, "Your Uncle Ye actually has a pretty good temper. It's just that the love triangle between you, Ye Zhi, and Xiao Jun really annoyed him, which is why he lost his temper that day. So, if you really want to improve the relationship between Xiao Zhi and her father, you should try to avoid the topic of the love triangle."

Xiao Wan is indeed a very sensible woman. She knows that I am the best bridge to improve their relationship with Ye Zhi, so she can temporarily put aside my messy relationship with Ye Zhi, because she knows which matter is more important.

"Wan'er, who's here?"

But soon Ye Chengmai saw me following Xiao Wan in, and his expression immediately changed, becoming displeased.

"What are you doing here, kid?"

"Come see Uncle Ye."

Xiao Wan asked me to sit down first, and she made tea for me and Ye Chengmai.

Ye Chengmai, clearly not welcoming me, coldly asked, "What is it?"

"Uncle Ye, let me get straight to the point. I've come to you with only one purpose: to help you and Ye Zhi reconcile. I'm truly sorry that what I did caused you and your daughter to have a fight... so I hope I can make amends in some way," I said sincerely.

"How dare you do what you did last time? You're already dating Xiaojun, yet you still come to harass my Xiaozhi!" Ye Chengmai slammed the teacup on the coffee table.

"Actually, the relationship between the three of us is a love triangle... that's why what you saw that day happened."

Ye Chengmai frowned. This resemblance between him and Ye Zhi was extremely similar; they were indeed father and daughter.

"You mean Xiaojun and Xiaozhi both like you and are fighting over you?"

I nodded shamelessly and said, "That's roughly the idea..."

"But didn't you start dating Xiaojun first?"

"Actually, I met both of them at the same time. Before we started dating, we were already in this love triangle. After we started dating, because of my issues, they still treated me as their rivals, just like before..."

"Then you should break things off with Xiaozhi cleanly and decisively, don't let things get tangled up and become a mess!"

Xiao Wan gave me a wink, reminding me not to dwell on this topic.

So I said, "Uncle Ye, I'm really sorry. We will definitely have a clear result regarding the matter between me and the two of them as soon as possible. I hope you can be patient... More than that, I want to resolve the conflict between you and Ye Zhi right now, because I can feel that she has always cared about this matter. I'm sure you feel the same way, Uncle Ye. So, Uncle Ye, let's put aside the love triangle for now and talk about restoring the harmonious relationship between you and your daughter. This matter is obviously much more important. Aunt Xiao has told me some things about your past, and I personally think it is very likely that we can ease the tension between you."

I believe Ye Chengmai is very concerned about getting back together with Ye Zhi, so I directly told him that I was very confident and hoped that he would listen to me and listen to my plan.

Chapter 155, Section 660: Persuasion

2021-03-23T07:52:19

After listening to my long-winded explanation, Ye Chengmai didn't hesitate or ponder for a moment. Eager to reconcile with his daughter, he eagerly asked, "What's the solution?"

And that's exactly what I wanted to see. Before I came, I was worried that he would dwell on our love triangle and wouldn't want to hear me talk about it.

I didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "I heard from Aunt Xiao that Aunt Miao left some things for Ye Zhi before she passed away... Is that true, Uncle Ye?" (Aunt Miao is Ye Zhi's biological mother)

When I mentioned the video disc left to Ye Zhi by her biological mother, Ye Chengmai immediately became wary. This was understandable, as it was the last thing his wife left him.

"Wan'er, why did you tell him about this?"

Ye Chengmai looked at Xiao Wan with displeasure. The latter had already anticipated that Ye Chengmai would be angry, so she didn't say anything, but just lowered her head. Ye Chengmai couldn't say anything after seeing this, because he had already said it.

At this point, I said, "Uncle Ye, please don't blame Aunt Xiao. She only wanted you and Ye Zhi to get back together, and that's why I came to see you... So I hope you can listen to me and finish what I have to say before you deny it. She has always been very helpful to me, so I also want to do my part in this matter..."

Ye Chengmai gave me a deep look, but my sincerity was written on my face, open and honest.

“I do have a recording disc left by her biological mother. So what do you want to do with it?” Ye Chengmai asked in a low voice.

"Let Ye Zhi see what her mother wants her to see."

“No way!” Ye Chengmai immediately refused.

As expected, I continued, "I know how important that audio disc is to Uncle Ye, which is why you're reluctant to look at it... But Aunt Miao and Ye Zhi must be just as important to you, right? They are both your closest relatives."

Ye Chengmai remained silent.

“There is a way to kill two birds with one stone. Since Aunt Miao left two audio discs, one for Uncle Ye and one for Ye Zhi, Uncle Ye can keep the one Aunt Miao gave you, because it contains Uncle Ye’s longing for Aunt Miao. As for the other one, let Ye Zhi decide whether to watch it or not, because it was originally left to Ye Zhi by Aunt Miao. I think there must be something Aunt Miao told Ye Zhi on it. In this way, the misunderstanding between Ye Zhi and Uncle Ye can be largely resolved.”

"What if it didn't explain my relationship with Wan'er at all?"

I looked at Ye Chengmai seriously and said, "Whether it exists or not, it is what Aunt Miao wanted to convey to Ye Zhi before she died. If it is sealed away like this, Aunt Miao's feelings will never be conveyed to Ye Zhi, Aunt Miao's efforts will be in vain, and Ye Zhi will never feel Aunt Miao's last maternal love."

"Wan'er, could you please go to the study and get me a pack of cigarettes?"

Before leaving, Xiao Wan glanced at me and Ye Chengmai again, looking somewhat uneasy.

After Xiao Wan went upstairs, Ye Chengmai said to me, "Actually, I really shouldn't have said those things in front of your Aunt Xiao, because she's my wife now..."

“Aunt Xiao told me that Aunt Miao is one of the people she is most grateful to in her life. She feels guilty because she caused the discord between you and Ye Zhi. She really hopes to restore the relationship between you and your father... but she has never been able to do it. That’s why she told me these stories. She hopes I can do it, and I want to do it too.”

Actually, I didn't do anything, just talked a lot, but unfortunately, only I can do this job of talking, because if I don't do it, no one else can. Ye Zhi's only friend is Mi Lan, but obviously Mi Lan couldn't help. Xiao Wan and Ye Chengmai tried countless times to reconcile with Ye Zhi, but they couldn't clear up the misunderstanding.

Xiao Wan quickly took the cigarettes down. Ye Chengmai took them and asked me if I wanted one. I was taken aback. This detail showed a subtle change in Ye Chengmai's attitude towards me. I told him I had quit, and he went to the outer courtyard to smoke. I knew he was going to consider whether to give the recording disc to Ye Zhi. I used to be a smoker too. When I was troubled or conflicted, I would have one to clear my mind. But Lu Xiaojun didn't like it, so I quit.

About the time it takes to smoke two cigarettes, Ye Chengmai returned, but he went straight upstairs. A little while later, he handed me a box.

"There's a CD inside... Hold it carefully so you don't lose it... If Ye Zhi doesn't want to watch it, just give it back to me." Ye Chengmai seemed to have made this decision with great difficulty.

"Uncle Ye, don't worry, I will do my best."

Before I left, Ye Chengmai called me back. He looked at me with a complicated expression and said, "Actually, Tusheng is... quite good... but a love triangle can't be dragged on forever. Make a decision as soon as possible. I can't control you or Xiaozhi. Whether you choose my daughter or Xiaojun, I won't blame you. But if you like Xiaozhi more, then go ahead and choose her. I'll cover for you with your Uncle Lu."
