Jiang Ze then said, catching his breath, "Of course, there's still one more major problem..."

Upon seeing this, Tan Yuqiu's heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help but ask, "What's the problem?"

Jiang Ze subconsciously glanced at the expressions of the two of them, but then heard Tan Yuqiu anxiously ask, "What's the problem? Just say it!"

Jiang Ze then said, "My sister-in-law has a child."

Tan Yuqiu and Jiang Kai's expressions slowly froze, then they exchanged a glance. Jiang Ze heard her ask, "Divorced?"

Jiang Ze wasn't sure what the two of them were thinking, and nodded hesitantly upon hearing this: "You could say that."

Tan Yuqiu's expression was complicated for a moment, then she asked in a serious tone, "Tell your mother honestly, what kind of person is that girl?"

Jiang Ze's tone was very sincere: "Of course she's great! Her character is definitely impeccable, and she has a good relationship with my brother. You can't make things difficult for her; it's not easy for my brother to find a girlfriend, don't ruin it..."

He noticed that Tan Yuqiu's expression was a little off, and subconsciously gave her a word of advice. He knew that as parents, they would definitely find this kind of thing unacceptable, but Zhaozhao was so good, and he also had to consider things from her perspective.

Tan Yuqiu rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, "Am I that kind of person? Although I don't understand, I will respect it. What more can I say about your matter?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ze realized he was in the wrong, so he quickly pulled Tan Yuqiu aside and coaxed her for a while. Seeing that the couple was happier, he then swayed into the house.

As Jiang Kai trimmed the flower branches, he sensed Tan Yuqiu's silence and asked with a smile, "What's wrong? Didn't you want a grandson? Now you have one, a ready-made grandson."

Hearing this, Tan Yuqiu looked up and glared at him before slowly saying, "I won't interfere in the children's affairs. Let's see what kind of person the girl is when we have the chance. Aze is praising her like she's a fairy, saying she's perfect in every way. I really want to see her..."

Then he added, "Having a child is nothing. Is the Jiang family afraid of not being able to raise a child?"

Jiang Kai nodded upon hearing this: "That makes sense. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings..."

Tan Yuqiu muttered, "Luckily, A-Che isn't like A-Ze..."

Jiang Kai smiled with his head down, saying nothing.

Jiang Che was so busy at the company that he had no idea that Jiang Ze had revealed all his secrets.

After being busy for a while, Jiang Che finally had some free time and was about to send Ye Zhao a message when his phone received a call.

"Hello?"

Mu Xu's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone: "President Jiang, President Ye has woken up."

Jiang Che paused for a second before asking, "What did the doctor say?"

"The doctor said that my condition is stable at the moment, and if I recover well, I can be discharged from the hospital in a while."

"Okay, I understand. Tell the caregiver to take good care of her."

"Yes, Mr. Jiang."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Che originally planned to send Ye Zhao a message, but then he made a phone call instead.

Ye Zhao had just woken up when she received a call from Jiang Che.

"Hello? A-Che?" Perhaps because she had just woken up, her voice sounded a little hoarse.

Jiang Che smiled at her calling him "A-Che": "Are you awake?"

"Mmm, I feel so good after a good sleep." She didn't even realize that her tone carried a hint of intimacy she hadn't used before.

Jiang Che smiled and said gently, "As long as you're comfortable."

After saying that, he remembered Ye Feng and said gently, "Zhao Zhao, we received news from the hospital that President Ye has woken up."

"Awake?" Ye Zhao's previously confused thoughts cleared up a bit.

What did the doctor say?

Jiang Che said slowly, "The doctor said the condition is relatively stable, and if nothing unexpected happens, I can be discharged from the hospital in a while."

"I'll go take a look when I have some free time later, and then I'll tell you the specifics, okay?"

"Okay, aren't you working too hard? Let me see..."

Jiang Che gently interrupted her, saying, "You should spend some time with the child. The child needs you more these next few days. I'll take care of things here."

After saying that, he laughed and said, "If I can't even handle this little thing for you, what use am I to you as your boyfriend?"

Ye Zhao laughed upon hearing this, "How can you talk about yourself like that?"

"Are you busy today too? Are you tired?"

Jiang Che smiled and replied, "I'm not tired. It's all routine work, nothing troublesome."

Ye Zhao said slowly, "Although it's all routine work, you must be very tired after a long day, right? Take care to rest these next few days, don't overwork yourself."

Faced with Ye Zhao's concern, Jiang Che would be lying if he said he wasn't moved. He felt a warm current flowing through his heart, as if washing away the fatigue of the day, and his mood, which had been irritable due to work, gradually improved.

"Yes, I know, thank you for your concern, Zhao Zhao!"

Jiang Che's voice was very clear, and he spoke very gently, causing Ye Zhao to unconsciously smile.

"Have you missed me?" Jiang Che asked softly.

Ye Zhao's ear was very close to the phone, and when she heard Jiang Che's words, she felt as if he was whispering sweet nothings in her ear. Even through the phone, her ears turned red.

After a long silence, Ye Zhao slowly replied, "...I want to."

Jiang Che beamed with joy upon hearing this, his tone becoming even more cheerful: "I miss you too!"

Ye Zhao laughed along with him, and the two chatted on the phone. As their words grew closer, their hearts slowly drew nearer to each other.

Jiang Che is usually a man of few words, but when he is with Ye Zhao, he always has endless things to say, as if he wants to share everything with her and tell her everything.

Ye Zhao naturally noticed his change as well. It would be a lie to say she wasn't happy. The two had only been dating for a few days, but she could feel Jiang Che's attention and affection for her. Although she didn't say it, her heart was filled with sweetness.

The two chatted away on one side, while Chen Du returned with Yuanbao around the same time.

After a day of playing, Yuanbao fell asleep in Shen Du's arms as soon as he got in the car. Shen Du took a blanket and covered him with it, looking exhausted himself.

He had never taken his child out to play alone before, so he was naturally a little unaccustomed to it. He even felt that compared to his job, his job was not as tiring, since it was his comfort zone. Taking care of a child was something he had never experienced before, and he was already exhausted by the end of the day.

The driver drove smoothly forward, the scenery outside the car window constantly moving backward. Shen Du closed her eyes quietly to rest, her mind a jumbled mess.

His mind was filled with chaotic work and miscellaneous matters. He sorted these things out one by one in his mind. As his thoughts drifted, he suddenly thought of Ye Zhao.

I remembered her flowing hair and radiant smile, her bright eyes and rosy lips...
