Ji Zhinan sensed the hidden meaning in Elder Joseph's words: "Grandpa Joseph, please just say what you want to say."
Since Ji Zhinan had said this, the three elders looked at each other in bewilderment. Joseph finally spoke up: "I remember there was a saying in China: 'A country cannot be without an heir for a day.' Ling Yin has been with your mother for twenty years. He is still so young. He shouldn't give his whole life's happiness to a deceased person."
"..." Ji Zhinan lowered his eyes and remained silent.
Luo Ling did not die; she has been alive all these years.
However, it's Luo Ling, not Xi Luo.
Elder Joseph continued, “We are brothers who fought alongside Ling Yin’s father. Twenty years ago, when Ling Yin’s father had an accident, we followed Ling Yin. Later, we finally regained control of the Warrens family. We originally wanted Ling Yin to form a marriage alliance to consolidate the family, but he said that the family was the priority.”
“He has rejected us countless times over the years, and we know he has always cared about your mother. However… the Warrens family must have a matriarch.”
The three old men talked at length to Ji Zhinan, but what they really wanted to tell him was that Li Yuan had been single for too many years, and the Warrens family couldn't be without a patriarch's wife. Even if he had been devoted to her for twenty years, that would be enough. They asked if Li Yuan could go on a blind date.
"..." Ji Zhinan remained silent: "Whatever my father does is his own choice, and I don't interfere."
Upon hearing this, the three elders immediately became anxious.
"Nan Nan, you can't think like that."
“Yes, you are Ling Yin’s daughter, and your thoughts are very important. If you tell Ling Yin that you want a mother, he will definitely consider it.”
“Nan Nan, we know that in your heart you must feel that your biological mother is the best match for Ling Yin. If she were still alive, we would turn a blind eye and accept her for the sake of you and Ling Yin, but she is already dead.”
"Ling Yin has waited for her from twenty to forty years old. He gave his youth to your mother and has lived alone for so many years. Isn't that enough? You will marry into the Gu family in the future, and Eddie will inherit the family business. No matter how filial you are, you can't stay by Ling Yin's side every day. You will also have your own little family. It's okay now, but what will happen when Ling Yin is seventy, eighty, or ninety years old? Can you really bear to see him grow old alone?"
"..." It has to be admitted that the three elders' words, one after another, hit Ji Zhinan's heart.
The Gu family is in country Y, while the Warrens family is in Europe, and the distance between the two is more than ten hours by plane.
She will have her own home with Gu Yibei in the future. She can't stay by her father's side every minute of every day. Her father has been waiting for Xi Luo since he was in his twenties. After waiting for so many years, does she really want him to spend his whole life waiting for someone who will never appear again?
"I see."
After an unknown amount of time, Ji Zhinan spoke.
“I… will try my best to persuade my dad, but ultimately it’s his own decision, and I won’t interfere,” Ji Zhinan said.
The three elders were thrilled and nodded quickly: "It's alright, as long as you're willing to talk."
Ling Yin dotes on this child so much that if Nan Nan were to speak up, it would definitely be more effective than if they did.
Ji Zhinan said a few more words to the elder before hanging up the video call to continue handling company matters.
