Jiang Tian explained to him, "There's a family dinner tomorrow. My father and his children will be there, and my mother wants me to go with them."
Oh, so it's a family dinner.
After talking on the phone for so long, Ye Feiyu had gained a certain understanding of Jiang Tian's family situation.
Her father's actions were nothing more than typical male behavior.
After getting married and starting a small business, he had time to go out and have affairs, so he kept one older woman at home and another younger one outside.
Her father, on the other hand, was quite fond of favoring his concubine over his wife. He always lived with the concubine and even had twins with her.
"Your father is back?"
"Yes, his flight is tomorrow."
Ye Feiyu shouldn't get involved in other people's family affairs.
He thought for a moment, then added, "Then take good care of Auntie and don't let her get upset."
She got angry, and Jiang Tian had to ask him for leave again.
"Yes, I will."
Jiang Tian sounded a little downcast.
Ye Feiyu was well aware of her childhood trauma.
Despite not being from a single-parent family, Jiang Tian lives a worse life than children from single-parent families.
At least other fathers wouldn't openly give their fatherly love to other children, but wouldn't give her even a fraction of it.
Ye Feiyu smiled and said to her, "Tell me about today's homework."
"Oh well."
Jiang Tian was very obedient and found a private tutor. The tutor was very strict with her and assigned homework every day.
She is very quick to understand and has a good talent for languages; Ye Feiyu would occasionally give her some pointers.
Jiang Tian cherishes the opportunity to learn, and her enthusiasm always rises whenever learning is mentioned.
Ye Feiyu had no right to say much about her family; words of comfort would be meaningless, as they couldn't change the situation.
Then the only option is to distract her.
The two of them went back and forth, and time passed quickly.
Just before hanging up, Ye Feiyu thought for a moment and transferred another 200,000 yuan to her.
"I'll be back in a couple of days. Don't go to the villa tomorrow morning. Go straight to the mall and buy a couple of decent outfits. You'll definitely be attending formal occasions with me in the future, so you need to have a few presentable clothes. Consider this money as clothing expenses."
His excuse was flawless.
Jiang Tian accepted it and obediently replied, "Okay."
"Okay, pick your favorite one and wear it to your dad's family dinner tomorrow. I want to see how you look in it, and remember to take pictures for me."
After he finished speaking, Jiang Tian didn't reply for a long time.
Ye Feiyu knew that she had seen through his thoughts.
Sigh, he doesn't know what's wrong with him, he always feels sorry for her without realizing it.
There are so many people around him with bad families and tragic backgrounds, why doesn't he feel sorry for them?
After a long while, Jiang Tian finally spoke, her voice tinged with suppressed sobs: "Thank you, Mr. Ye, but it's no need. My father and I have no connection, and there's no need for me to taint your money for him."
She smiled nonchalantly, "Of course, I'll go shopping tomorrow and buy a few outfits to make a good impression. As your assistant, I certainly can't let you down."
Ye Feiyu was pleased. As long as she knew how to collect money, that was fine. Anyway, she was the one who wore the clothes. If she didn't want to wear them on that occasion, then she wouldn't wear them.
"Okay, then you still have to take my picture. I want to see what your taste is like."
"good."
Ye Feiyu was very satisfied when he hung up the phone.
He had already sensed Jiang Tian's closeness to him.
Jiang Tian is clever and knows how to let down her guard and repay kindness. She is indeed worthy of being the person he personally chose.
The next day, Zhou Jishen arrived very early.
He was well-dressed and handsome.
Upon seeing her son-in-law, Jiang Yuehua's eyes filled with smiles: "Why did you come so early?"
"Dad told us to go early."
Zhou Jishen forced a smile at Jiang Yuehua, but the smile was very perfunctory.
Jiang Yuehua was already used to it.
Her son-in-law's group is thriving, almost surpassing Lin Jianhe's success, so it's normal for him to be a little arrogant.
Since her daughter has married her, as her mother-in-law, she should still make concessions.
Jiang Yuehua didn't want to embarrass her daughter.
Jiang Tian glanced at Zhou Jishen expressionlessly, without bothering him to open the door for her mother. She helped Jiang Yuehua open the car door for her and let her in before sitting in the back seat herself.
Seeing her daughter sitting with her, Jiang Yuehua frowned, a little unhappy: "You go sit in the passenger seat. If we all sit in the back, it's like making Ji Shen the driver."
Zhou Jishen spoke up at the right moment: "It's alright, let Jiang Tian take care of you from behind."
Jiang Yuehua forced a smile and said nothing more.
From the time Zhou Jishen came to pick up the mother and daughter until now, he has never called her "Mom" once.
Jiang Tian silently held Jiang Yuehua's hand.
Jiang Yuehua sighed inwardly and let her hold it.
When a person is of low status, their words carry little weight, and they cannot rise to a high position.
Jiang Yuehua truly regretted transferring all her shares to Lin Jianhe back then. She was blinded by greed and couldn't leave any property to her daughter. People looked down on her, and she could only suffer in silence.
Therefore, they couldn't miss the family banquet.
Jiang Tian is also Lin Jianhe's child, and she needs to remind him of this constantly.
Her daughter should not be left out of the family fortune.
The restaurant is the most luxurious hotel in the city.
The closer they got to their destination, the better Zhou Jishen's mood became.
After all, his beloved was there.
