Ye Qingcheng noticed the rustling movements of the two people behind him, but he didn't say anything. Even after getting into the car, he didn't rush to question Ye Zhiwei about the kidnapping, waiting for Ye Zhiwei to bring it up first.
This is Ye Qingcheng's way of negotiating with people. This method always allows him to maintain control. Now, he habitually uses this method on Ye Zhiwei.
Ye Zhiwei had never met Ye Qingcheng at the negotiating table, so she was unaware of these matters. Ji Shuli, who had spoken with Ye Qingcheng at several meetings and training sessions, noticed this. He was about to remind Ye Zhiwei, but sensing the awkward atmosphere and eager to resolve Ye Qingcheng's suspicions, Ye Zhiwei spoke first, "Dad, about the kidnapping—"
Before she could finish speaking, Ye Qingcheng interrupted her, frowning as he said, "Our Zhiwei is all grown up now. She doesn't plan to tell her father anything that happens. I don't mean to control your life, but you didn't tell me anything about this. I only found out about it from someone else. It really breaks my heart."
Ye Zhiwei was stunned for a moment, unable to respond.
Because Ye Qingcheng has already taken the initiative, regardless of whether the matter is big or small, and whether Ye Zhiwei really feels that she doesn't need to tell Ye Qingcheng because she hasn't been hurt and would only cause him unnecessary worry, she has already made a mistake.
"Perhaps I really am a failed father, even knowing about my daughter's situation from other people," Ye Qingcheng said slowly.
Ye Zhiwei's mood also became depressed.
Her relationship with Ye Qingcheng wasn't bad. Although Ye Qingcheng didn't have time to spend with her, he would still take the time to ask about Ye Zhiwei whenever he had a spare moment. However, because he wasn't good with words and liked to keep things to himself, the father and daughter often found themselves speechless.
In addition, Ye Zhiwei was born with memories of her past life. She was an orphan in her previous life and was used to being alone. Even though she had a father, she didn't really take on the role of a daughter. She was relaxed and at ease when Ye Qingcheng was busy and didn't have time to take care of her, but she felt more helpless when Ye Qingcheng cared about her.
Ye Qingcheng's words made Ye Zhiwei feel guilty. After a while, she whispered, "I'm sorry, Dad."
"Dad didn't mean to blame you," Ye Qingcheng said softly, trying to comfort Ye Zhiwei.
The more he said this, the more guilty Ye Zhiwei felt. Before Ye Qingcheng could ask her any more questions, she told him everything. "It seems like there was a problem with the school's dormitory allocation system. I ended up sharing a dormitory with girls from other departments. Their tempers don't quite match mine. There was one from the art college, and we had a falling out. She probably has a bigger temper, and I don't have a very good temper either. After the argument, she was probably still upset with me and started having an affair off-campus. But even though she had an affair, we found out about it very quickly. Before she could even hire someone to do anything, I called the police."
Ye Qingcheng asked again, "When did this happen?"
"Just recently, a few days ago," Ye Zhiwei replied obediently.
Ye Qingcheng frowned: "What's that girl's name?"
"Tang Ke's family owns a company, I think it's a tech company, and they're facing bankruptcy. I don't know if they've completely gone bankrupt yet. After we argued, she seemed to want me to help her, but I refused, which angered her even more," Ye Zhiwei continued.
Ye Qingcheng asked a question, and Ye Zhiwei answered it.
Ji Shuli, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but slap the table in admiration: "As expected, the old ginger is spicier. With my little cousin's mind as blank as a sheet of paper, she can still hide things from her uncle."
