Ye Xingguo hugged his daughter and patted her back. "I was so worried. I've been worried these days. Now I can finally rest assured."
Then he pulled his daughter to sit on the bed and said, "Tell daddy about your experience during this period and how you escaped from those people."
Ye Xingguo knew that what Li Shaozhong said was not entirely true, and his daughter's research institute space could not be exposed.
Ye Shuning would of course tell her father the true story, how she burned the ship and escaped, how she boarded the Qin family's cargo ship, how she arrived at Nangang with Qin Zongye's help, and how she settled down there. She also told her father a series of things she did in Nangang, and she did not hide anything from her father.
Although Ye Xingguo had heard Li Shaozhong tell his daughter's experience once, he was worried about his daughter and felt proud of her when he heard his daughter tell a more realistic version of the story.
His daughter is amazing. Nothing can stop her and she can thrive wherever she goes.
Ye Xingguo listened to his daughter's story of how Qin Zongye had truly helped her, which made him suspicious. Would a wealthy second-generation man be so kind as to help a girl? There was no guarantee he had no ulterior motives.
Ye Xingguo couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Ning, what kind of person is this Qin Zongye you're talking about?"
Ye Shuning said, "Qin Zongye is a very gentleman and helpful person, worthy of a close friendship. He has a good business sense and is very decisive, making him a good partner. I plan to cooperate with him to build a factory in Nangang in the future. The Qin family is a very strong backing. With the Qin family in Nangang, no one will dare to bully me easily.
When I become stronger, I won’t have to worry about them. And the Ling family, once they’ve dealt with their internal strife, will also be a good partner.”
Ye Xingguo did not express his doubts, but said: "Xiao Ning, what about you and Li Shaozhong? What do you think?"
Ye Shuning certainly wouldn't hide this from her father. "Brother Li San came last night, and I told him that we both have family in the mainland. For the safety of our families, I can't go back, and he can't leave either. We can't get married for at least the next few years. If he can't wait, I'll let him go free."
But Brother Li San said he would wait for me to come back no matter how long it took. Since he was so determined, I couldn't let him down. We agreed to wait for the day we could reunite.
I'm very busy in Nangang now and don't have the energy to think about these things. As long as he doesn't give up, I won't give up either. It's only a few years away, and I can come back when things open up. It won't be too late for us to get married then."
Ye Xingguo was relieved to hear that his daughter and son-in-law had already made plans. He nodded and said, "Since you two have agreed, I am relieved."
Ye Shuning said worriedly, "I'm just worried that Uncle Li and Aunt Yang might have objections."
Ye Xingguo said: "Don't worry about this. They can't make the decision for Shaozhong. Everything still depends on Shaozhong.
Don't worry about us over there. Live a good life and don't overwork yourself. There's no rush to make money. Reform and opening up are still several years away."
Ye Shuning hesitated for a moment and said, "Dad, are you saying I really can't bring Jingyu back? I sometimes feel lonely over there with Jingyu. It's especially lonely during the Chinese New Year, and I miss you so much back then."
Ye Xingguo also felt sorry for his daughter, and sighed and said, "Many people know that you had an accident in foreign waters, especially the people who harmed the Li family this time, and the Wang family also know about it.
If you come back, there's no guarantee they won't try to make trouble for you. If they do arrest you, I can't guarantee your safety at all. That's when you'll be in real danger. They can charge you with a crime, and by then it'll be too late for us to regret it.
So don't be complacent. You should stay in Nangang for the next few years and come back when the situation in the mainland stabilizes."
Ye Shuning also knew that what her father described was very likely to happen, so she no longer held onto any hope.
"Then I can only stay in Nangang for a few years. I want to use these few years to accumulate more funds so that when the mainland reforms and opens up, I can have the funds to return and invest in a factory."
Ye Xingguo knew that his daughter had lofty ideals, and he supported her.
Ye Shuning took out a bag containing the information she had prepared for her father.
Ye Shuning said, "Dad, I have one more thing to tell you. There is an Internet signal in my research institute, which means I can find everything on the Internet."
Ye Xingguo was stunned after hearing this, and after a long while he said, "My dear, what on earth is this research institute of yours? How can it have network signals from our world? This is incredible. Do you think that your research institute is in our world?"
But that doesn't make sense. There was no signal soon after the apocalypse. How did your institute even have an internet signal? I really don't understand."
Ye Shuning said, "I couldn't figure it out either, but then I stopped thinking about it. We can all travel here, so what is impossible? Just use it when you need it. I have some information in this bag that you need. Go back and take a look.
I think you can use these few years to find an opportunity to further your studies. One is to increase your capital, and the other is to gain some say in the war in southern Xinjiang in a few years."
Ye Xingguo nodded and said, "Yes, I will definitely participate in the war when the time comes. I have to think about how to achieve the greatest victory at the lowest cost."
Ye Shuning said, "Dad, your task is quite difficult and it's not easy to complete."
Ye Xingguo smiled and said, "I just tried my best. Man proposes, God disposes. I did everything I had to do, and in the end, no matter what happened, I have a clear conscience."
Ye Shuning raised her fist and said, "I will also work hard and prepare in advance. At least I can provide some material support. Let's work together.
But, Dad, you have to take care of yourself too. You've lost a lot of weight, so don't worry about me. Take good care of yourself and live a long life. You might even have a great-grandson in your arms in this lifetime."
Ye Xingguo was delighted when he heard this. "I'm very happy that you can meet someone you love in this life. I don't want to think about great-grandchildren yet. I'm just looking forward to holding my first grandson in my arms as soon as possible."
Ye Shuning hugged her father's arm, rested her head on his shoulder, and promised generously: "Don't worry, I will definitely let you hold your first grandson in your arms in this life. It will fulfill your long-cherished wish."
Although her father did not always urge her to get married in her previous life and always respected her choices, she also knew that her father had always hoped that she could get married and have children, and that her father had always envied other families for having children.
In this life, she will fulfill her father's wish so that he can enjoy the happiness of having grandchildren in the future.
