Chapter 337 The Dust Settles
That night, although they still slept in the same bed, they did not engage in any intimate activities. Yun Che did not even dare to touch her, fearing that it would arouse her again.
The next day, Yun Che received a call from Zhao Yixuan, saying that his uncle invited him to dinner and asked when he was ready.
“Anytime.” Yun Che replied immediately.
Zhao Yixuan smiled bitterly, knowing that Yun Che couldn't wait any longer.
So, the dinner time was scheduled for that evening.
In addition to Zhao Zhihui, Zhao Zhixun and Zhao Yixuan were also present.
Zhao Zhihui was still very gentle and polite to Yun Che. Not to mention Zhao Zhixun.
Yun Che actually felt a little embarrassed. No matter what Zhao Jiaying was like, the elders of the Zhao family were really good to him.
Therefore, during this meal, Yun Che kept a low profile and faced them humbly.
"Ah Che, I'm asking you one last time. Are you sure you want to divorce Ying Ying?" Zhao Zhihui got to the point, his sharp eyes fixed on Yun Che without blinking.
Yun Che remained calm and composed, nodding respectfully to Zhao Zhihui. "After the surgery, although I've forgotten some things and my memories are full of Yingying's good points, her evil deeds cannot be erased. We've already spent so many years together, and I don't want to waste any more of your time. Yingying isn't young anymore, and if we separate now, she still has many options."
Yes, as the daughter of the Zhao family, she would be a popular couple even if it was her second marriage. As for whether she could find someone as outstanding as Yun Che, that was another matter.
“I’m sorry, Uncle Zhao. I’ve let Zhao Jiaying down.” Yun Che continued.
Uncle Zhao!
He couldn't wait to change his words before the divorce.
When Zhao Zhihui heard such a name, he felt a little depressed.
He waved his hand and said to Yun Che, "It's not about letting anyone down when it comes to relationships. Perhaps I shouldn't have let you get married back then. But forget it, what's the point of talking about it now? Yixuan told me your conditions, and I agree to your second condition. We can let Su Yutao go, but I hope that Yangyang will still be raised by Yingying."
"No, Uncle Zhao!" Yun Che objected immediately. Realizing his tone had been a bit harsh, he quickly calmed down and continued, "I know Yingying has raised Yangyang for six years and they have a deep bond. Back then, before I knew Yangyang's true identity, I considered giving Yangyang to her. But now, Yangyang is not her biological child, but Su Xiao's. It's neither right nor proper for him to be given to Yingying to raise."
"After all, it's all because of Su Xiao!" Zhao Zhihui's tone was clearly unhappy when he mentioned Su Xiao's name.
Although it was not Su Xiao who caused his daughter to become like this, it was all because of Su Xiao. If it were not for Su Xiao, Yingying and Yun Che would not have been separated. Zhao Zhihui could not hold a grudge against Yun Che, but he would not forgive Su Xiao.
Yun Che also heard Zhao Zhihui's unhappiness and wanted to plead for Su Xiao, but in the end he held back.
"Ache, listen to me?" Zhao Zhixun suddenly spoke.
Yun Che quickly looked at him and nodded, "Minister Zhao, please go ahead."
"It's true that Su Xiao is Yangyang's biological mother, but an adoptive mother is no less important than a biological mother. That's why Yangyang chose Yingying. I understand that you can't bear to part with your child and want her to be with you, but Yingying needs a child too. Anyway, you and Su Xiao are still young and can have another child in the future."
But even if I have a few more children, they won’t be Yangyang!
Yangyang is Yangyang, and the other children are other children.
Yun Che disagreed, and he knew that Su Xiao would not agree either.
"Although Big Brother just said that no one should let anyone down in matters of the heart, it's Yingying who's lost you, and Su Xiao who's gained you. If you keep Yangyang with Yingying, she'll have someone to rely on, and she won't focus on you in the future. Otherwise, if you take Yangyang away too, I'm worried that Yingying won't be able to bear the blow and will do something out of her wild thoughts. Then your lives won't be peaceful. Based on all these considerations, it's better to let Yangyang stay with Yingying."
Yun Che felt a little pressured, especially after hearing what Zhao Zhixun had said. He understood everything and it was indeed the case, but...
Su Xiao wanted Yang Yang to come back so much, he didn't want to disappoint her, didn't want her to regret it for the rest of her life, not to mention, if he couldn't get Yang Yang back, Su Xiao might not reconcile with him!
Yun Che took a deep breath and said resolutely, "Minister Zhao, thank you for considering us, but I really can't give up the custody of Yangyang. It's undeniable that Yingying loved Yangyang very much during those six years and was a very good mother, but have you ever thought about it, now that she knows that Yangyang is Su Xiao's child, will she continue to treat Yangyang well? It's not that I'm biased, but I think it's impossible, absolutely impossible.
Just like Minister Zhao said earlier, she's emotionally unstable and prone to crooked thoughts when deeply stimulated. I'm afraid she'll transfer all this hatred and resentment onto Yangyang. If something unexpected happens, it'll be irreversible, and everyone will fall into the abyss. So, Yangyang can't stay with Zhao Jiaying anymore and must come back to me."
Zhao Zhixun and his brother looked at each other, their eyes like rolling waves.
Yun Che also looked back and forth at them, still maintaining an extremely humble attitude. "Uncle Zhao, Minister Zhao, although I'm not blessed to be your family, in my heart you are very important elders in my life. I am grateful for your cultivation and respect for me in the past. If you don't mind, I will definitely be there for you if you need me in the future!"
"Dad, uncle!" Zhao Yixuan suddenly said, "Actually, some of what Ah Che said makes sense. Why don't we just agree to his request? Since he and Yingying are not meant to be together, let's just end this matter once and for all. That way, we don't have to worry about Yingying causing any accidents in the future."
Brother Zhao Zhixun, you are really in a dilemma.
After Zhao Yixuan told them yesterday, they thought about it all night. The divorce between Zhao Jiaying and Yun Che was not only a matter of love between the two of them, but also involved many major issues. After all, some of their previous arrangements were made for Yun Che. Now that Yun Che is no longer their son-in-law, many things can no longer go on like this.
Therefore, they arranged this meeting just to try to get it first.
Who would have thought that Yun Che was not willing to give in at all.
Even though Yun Che's words were sincere, revealing his courtesy and respect for them, that was also because he wanted to resolve the issue peacefully. If they insisted on disagreeing, Yun Che would not compromise or tolerate it.
How could they not know who the Yun Che they knew was?
If the means become tougher, even they will have to admire you and be cautious.
Now is a turbulent time, and it is not appropriate to cause any trouble.
"Okay, Che, since you have made up your mind, there is no point in forcing you. I agree with both of your conditions. We will make Yingying sign the agreement no matter what method we use. As for Yangyang... we will return her to you when the time comes!" Finally, they made the final decision with great difficulty.
Yun Che was ecstatic and said quickly, "Thank you, thank you Uncle Zhao, thank you, Minister Zhao, thank you!"
Yes, he was really happy. Although he had thought that the adults in the Zhao family would agree, he would still feel uneasy until it actually happened.
Now that they finally agreed, the heavy stone in his heart was finally put down.
Yun Che couldn't wait to share this good news with Su Xiao and take credit for it!
