Chapter 696: Oaths are not credible

As soon as Baili Zhenxing finished speaking, Baili Zhenhua and others immediately expressed their agreement.

Baili Hengyuan also nodded, "Your uncle is right, Le Yao will definitely recover faster if she recuperates here."

"Of course, we have no objection to her going back with your father, but not at this time."

Zhong Mingxin and Baili Leyao were a little anxious. They wanted to speak, but they received a look from Zhong Nianyao that told them to be patient.

"Grandpa, don't worry, I can take good care of my mom."

Zhong Nianyao was not in a hurry. She smiled and said, "Besides, my father and mother are not young anymore. It's time for them to plan for their future."

Zhong Mingxin and Baili Leyao looked at each other. They didn't know what Zhong Nianyao was planning. But they knew very well that they shouldn't interrupt at this time.

Baili Hengyuan was silent for a while, then asked, "What do you mean?"

"Actually, this time when I went back, I also wanted to let my grandparents meet their daughter-in-law." Zhong Nianyao looked at Baili Hengyuan and said, "Besides, I'm already this old, but my parents don't even have a proper wedding. Isn't this a pity for them?"

After Zhong Nianyao finished speaking, the scene fell into silence.

When the three brothers Baili Hengyuan and Baili Zhenhua looked at Baili Leyao, there was a hint of pity and heartache in their expressions. When they looked at Zhong Mingxin again, they became very disgusted and dissatisfied.

Zhong Mingxin was secretly annoyed at this time. He felt that he should have been the first to bring up such a matter. Now that his daughter brought it up, it showed that he was really negligent and had not fulfilled his responsibilities as a husband.

Baili Leyao had mixed feelings. When she looked at Zhong Nianyao, her eyes showed kindness as well as other complex emotions.

She never thought that her daughter would be the first to bring up the wedding. She was also a woman, so naturally she wanted to have her own wedding.

However, she and Zhong Mingxin were both not young anymore, and they had been separated for so many years because of various frame-ups. Now they were finally reunited. The only thing she wanted to do was to live a good life. As for the wedding, she really hadn't thought about it at all.

"This matter..." Baili Hengyuan pondered for a while and then said, "But your mother's health..."

Baili Hengyuan was also very conflicted. On the one hand, he was somewhat conflicted about Zhong Nianyao's proposal, and on the other hand, he did not want his daughter to leave the Baili family so soon. At least... at least let her stay for a while, so that he, as a father, could get along well with his daughter!

"Grandpa, don't worry. Mom will be fine as long as I'm here." Zhong Nianyao blinked and continued to persuade, "Besides, Grandpa, are you going with us?"

"What?" Baili Hengyuan was a little confused, as if he couldn't keep up with Zhong Nianyao's pace, "I won't join in the fun."

"Grandpa, everyone else can choose not to go, but you must go!" Zhong Nianyao blinked and said with a smile, "How can you not be present when discussing the marriage? This is my mother's lifelong event, are you sure you don't want to participate in the discussion?"

Zhong Nianyao's words made Baili Hengyuan feel moved. Baili Leyao was his most beloved daughter. After so many things happened to her, she finally woke up. Zhong Mingxin also came back, and they had a wonderful daughter, Zhong Nianyao. However, she and Zhong Mingxin had not held a wedding yet.

As a father, he naturally hopes to watch his most beloved daughter get married with his own eyes and hopes to hand his daughter over to the person she loves.

Therefore, after hearing Zhong Nianyao mention the wedding, he couldn't help but feel a little more expectant.

Zhong Mingxin, who had been silent, stood up, came in front of Baili Hengyuan, and knelt down.

Faced with Zhong Mingxin's sudden action, Baili Hengyuan's heart moved, but he didn't say anything. He just looked at Zhong Mingxin who was kneeling there, with a dark look in his eyes, as if he could see through Zhong Mingxin's heart.

Zhong Mingxin was not afraid. He raised his head with a determined look in his eyes. "Uncle, I know that Le Yao is an outstanding woman and I am not worthy of her. But I am sincere to her and hope you can agree to marry her to me. I can promise that I will always treat Le Yao well."

Baili Hengyuan just kept staring at Zhong Mingxin, not saying whether he believed it or not.

Facing Baili Hengyuan's sharp eyes that seemed to be able to see through his heart, Zhong Mingxin faced him fearlessly, without dodging or evading, without any fear or retreat.

After a long while, Baili Hengyuan withdrew his gaze and said calmly, "I don't believe in any oaths. As long as people are alive, they may regret their oaths."

Hearing Baili Hengyuan's words, Zhong Mingxin couldn't help but show disappointment on his face. However, he also felt that it was understandable. After all, Baili Hengyuan didn't know him well, so why should he trust him?

Baili Leyao was a little anxious, "Dad, I——"

Just as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Baili Hengyuan. He changed the subject and continued, "Oaths are not trustworthy. Only real actions can convince me. I will give you a chance. I will see if I can really be good to my daughter in my every move in the future."

"If you treat her badly, I will take her away immediately and you will never see her again."

After a dark cloud, there is always a ray of hope. Zhong Mingxin and Baili Leyao met and looked at each other, and saw joy and happiness in each other's eyes.

Although the two have a strong love for each other, it is more important for them to get the blessing of their parents. Only in this way can they live happily together.

"Dad," Baili Zhenhua said with some dissatisfaction, "How can you agree to him so easily?"

"Yeah!" Baili Zhenye said, "Look at how weak he is. How can he protect my little sister?"

Although Baili Zhenxing didn't say anything, his attitude was very clear, the same as the other two brothers.

"Don't say anything." Baili Hengyuan raised his hand and made a decision directly. "Since I have made up my mind, I will not change it. Besides, I am just giving him a chance. As long as he treats your little sister badly, we will take her back immediately and never let them meet again."
