Today, Jiang Ruoyi was very happy that, with her persuasion, her best friend finally opened up about her inner conflict.
Moreover, she had already made an appointment with Liu Siyun to go on a road trip in a while, and they had even planned the route.
After leaving the Liu family's house, Jiang Ruoyi drove home. Since she was going on a trip, she naturally needed to prepare properly, bringing some necessary items, as well as hiking gear.
During her time away from the hospital, she stayed in a hotel and didn't go home. Naturally, she didn't want to see her father. This father had hurt her deeply in the matter of Sun Xiaolei, and she couldn't forgive him anytime soon.
Perhaps, after this trip, I'll gradually come to terms with some things.
But today she came back intending to grab her things and leave, not wanting to talk to Jiang Tianming any further.
Fortunately, Jiang Tianming was not back when she returned, which relieved her. She quickly went upstairs to pack her clothes.
However, just as she was tidying up, a Toyota Prado slowly pulled up into the yard.
Jiang Tianming got out of the car and saw his daughter's car in the yard. He was first stunned, then overjoyed.
He was worried about how to get the girl back, but unexpectedly, she came back on her own initiative.
He hurried upstairs, eager to call his daughter, only to find her packing her suitcase, and was immediately stunned.
"Ruoyi, what are you doing?"
Jiang Ruoyi glanced at him and said, "I'm going on a trip in a while. I'll come back first to pack my things. Also, I won't be back for a while. Take good care of yourself and take your medicine on time!"
Jiang Ruoyi knew he had a heart condition and was taking medication every day, so she didn't want to upset him or say anything hurtful.
No matter what, he was the father who raised her single-handedly, so she couldn't bring herself to hate him. She just felt a little resentful.
Jiang Tianming walked over with a smile. "Daughter, Dad knows you're still angry with me. Dad knows he was wrong. Now that Sun Xiaolei is dead and you've avenged yourself, please forgive Dad, okay?"
Jiang Ruoyi paused for a moment, then continued to quietly pack her clothes without saying anything.
Jiang Tianming moved closer and said with a smile, "Daughter, don't go, okay?"
“Look at this villa, besides the housekeeper who cooks, it’s just me left… You have no idea how heartbroken I was while you were away!” As he spoke, Jiang Tianming’s eyes reddened.
Hearing this, Jiang Ruoyi's eyes gradually reddened. Scenes from her childhood kept replaying in her mind.
When she was eight years old, her mother died in a car accident. Her father has been both her father and mother to her all these years, taking meticulous care of her. It has really not been easy for him.
Although her father has neglected her feelings a lot over the years because of his business, it was ultimately for her sake.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ruoyi sighed and said, "Dad, don't worry, I'm just going away for a while to clear my head. I'll come back on my own after a while!"
Jiang Tianming shook his head. "You still blame your father... You don't know how much your father worries about you every day. He worries about whether you're eating well outside, whether you're being bullied. We've relied on each other for so many years. How can you bear to let your father live in such fear?"
"Ruoyi, I'm begging you, please don't leave. Stay home and keep me company for a while, okay?" Jiang Tianming pleaded.
Jiang Ruoyi couldn't hold back anymore, tears welled up instantly, and she walked over and hugged Jiang Tianming, "Dad, sob sob sob!"
After crying for a while, he finally released his pent-up frustration, and the father and son made up.
Jiang Tianming specially asked the housekeeper to cook a meal, and the father and daughter ate together and even had some wine.
At the dinner table, seeing his daughter's high spirits, Jiang Tianming casually remarked, "By the way, Ruoyi, someone came to the company today to introduce you to someone! Oh my, this young man is truly exceptional. His family background, appearance, and education are all outstanding. He's no less than that Mr. Lin!"
Jiang Ruoyi paused for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Dad, I don't want to have a boyfriend for now, and I don't want to go on blind dates either. I believe I will meet the right person for me in the future!"
Jiang Tianming shook his head and said, "Daughter! You're already in your mid-twenties, and you still think you're in your student days. Back then, you were both innocent and easily sparked romance. Now that you've graduated and experienced the ways of society, where's the romance anymore!"
"Besides, what's wrong with blind dates? If you like each other, just give it a try. If it doesn't work out, so be it! What's the big deal!"
Jiang Ruoyi's face showed impatience: "Alright, Dad, stop talking..."
"Let me finish!" Jiang Tianming interrupted her, then quickly added, "Dad has already promised them. Just give Dad some face and go meet them. Whether it works out or not is your own business! Dad has already given them his assurance. If you don't go, Dad will really lose face!"
Seeing her father's pleading expression, Jiang Ruoyi's heart softened.
On second thought, it's just a meeting, isn't it?
It's just a meal at most; I'll eat and leave, and if necessary, I'll pay for the meal myself.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but nod: "Okay, but you have to tell me first who this person is and what he does?"
"Hehe, you agreed?"
Jiang Tianming, beaming with excitement, quickly said, "Let me tell you, this person is extraordinary! He comes from a wealthy and powerful family! You know the Hongluan Chamber of Commerce, right? He's the second young master of the Li family, Li Zhiyuan!"
Li Zhiyuan?
Upon hearing this name, Jiang Ruoyi's expression immediately changed.
