When Li Yuan returned home that evening, he was watering the flowers in the back garden. Since he had completely let go of his inner turmoil, he felt much more relaxed. He used to feel depressed, but now he knew to find something to do.
Upon hearing the maids call out "Young Miss," he immediately put down what he was holding and went into the living room.
Sure enough, he saw his beloved daughter, and Li Yuan was overjoyed.
"Nan Nan".
"dad."
Ji Zhinan went up and hugged Li Yuan.
This is the happiest time of Li Yuan's day. Nothing is more blissful than his beloved daughter coming home and hugging him, her old father, first thing.
Charles, standing next to him, was also smiling happily. His former husband was like a soulless puppet; he had given all his time and everything he had to his family.
Since the young lady appeared, the gentleman has become increasingly popular.
"I've had a batch of clothes custom-made for you. They're all the latest styles that haven't been released yet. They've already been placed in your walk-in closet. Dad will take you to see them."
As he spoke, Li Yuan pulled Ji Zhinan upstairs.
Walking to the room at the very end of the second floor, I pushed open the door and turned on the light. In a corner of the wardrobe, I saw a pile of clothes hanging without even having their dust bags removed.
Li Yuan casually picked up a dress, opened the dust bag, and held it up to Ji Zhinan, saying as he did so, "How is it? Do you like it? Dad remembers you really like wearing white dresses, so I specially had a lot of white dresses of various styles prepared. Which one do you like the most?"
As she spoke, Li Yuan went to look for other white dresses.
"..." Ji Zhinan did not answer, but instead looked around the walk-in closet.
This was originally an art studio, or more accurately... a studio specifically for displaying various portraits of Xi Luo, which used to be Li Yuan's favorite place.
After learning that Luo Ling was actually Xi Luo, Li Yuan destroyed all the paintings and set fire to the studio.
Later, Li Yuan renovated it and turned it into her walk-in closet.
Li Yuan is actually a man of few words. He is very aloof in front of outsiders and doesn't have much to say even to Eddie.
He only becomes this lively when he is with Ji Zhinan.
“Dad.” Ji Zhinan stared at him.
"Hmm?" Li Yuan immediately replied gently, his eyes still fixed on the pile of new clothes: "Baby, what's wrong?"
Do you still love her?
"..." Li Yuan's movements stopped.
Ji Zhinan stared at his stiff expression, her eyes filled with seriousness.
She grabbed Li Yuan's arm, making him look into her eyes, which resembled Luo Ling's, and repeated her question: "Do you still love her?"
"..."
"If you were given the chance, would you go to the Luo family to find her?"
"..." Li Yuan stared into Ji Zhinan's eyes, momentarily lost in thought.
He quickly regained his senses, his hands clenched into fists: "I've let myself go."
Really, he let himself go.
"..." Ji Zhinan fell silent again, scrutinizing his expression to confirm whether his words were true or false.
After about half a minute, Ji Zhinan pursed his lips and whispered, "Grandpa Joseph and the others came to see me today."
Li Yuan immediately asked, "What do those old men want with you?"
"It's nothing, they just told me that like in ancient China, a country cannot be without an heir for a day, and the Warrens family cannot remain without a patriarch's wife forever. They said there's a high-society matchmaking event in P country in a week, attended by unmarried men and women from various families around the world, and they hope you'll attend..."
