"Well... I don't know. He can't tell me where he's going, can he..."

Listening to the submissive voice on the other end of the phone, Ye Guoxian said in a deep voice, "Okay, I got it." He hung up.

Exhausted, he leaned back on the bed, his eyes thoughtful. Just as the maid brought in some tea, he immediately ordered, "Call young mistress over."

Less than ten minutes after returning to her room, jingya was summoned by her father-in-law again. Before she went, she called ye North city's cell phone several times, which showed that it was turned off. She threw her cell phone on the bed angrily and threw it out.

"Dad, what's wrong? My stomach hurts."

Before he came, he was still dusty, and as soon as he entered the room, he immediately pretended to be dead in the middle of the night and covered his stomach.

"Tell me honestly, what the hell has that bastard been doing these days?"

Ye Guoxian glanced at her hands on her stomach, reminding her in an ungrateful manner, "Stop pretending. Do you think I'm that gullible?"

"Dad, didn't I tell you that he's been having social engagements these days..."

"Social engagements? Where's the party? You're Vice president from the company now. You don't know where he's socializing, do you?"

Jing Ya looked up in a dilemma, "Yes, of course. In... In that persian hotel."

Ye Guoxian sighed, "Are you still lying to me? Do you really think that I'm old, so I can be fooled?"

"No, of course not!" She stood up and shook her hand. "Dad, I didn't lie to you."

"What? Your stomach doesn't hurt anymore?"

He raised his eyebrows, and Jing Ya quickly pretended to be in pain again. "It hurts. It's just a little excitement, and I forgot the pain..."

"Don't cover for him, I know!"

Jing ya xin was shocked, "Dad, what do you know?"

"Your husband doesn't have any social engagements at all. I've already called to confirm. Why, you still want to lie to me, don't you?"

Ye Guoxian's face was very unhappy. It was obvious that he didn't like people to lie to him.

"Dad..."

Jing Ya sat down nervously. It seemed that it was boring to pretend, but she really didn't know what to say. She couldn't lie to her father-in-law, and she couldn't stir up trouble. She was in a dilemma.

"Did you argue with North city?!"

"Ah? Oh... It's actually a little contradictory."

"Why?"

"It's nothing. It's inevitable that there will be friction between husband and wife. Don't worry about it. We are not children. We will deal with it."

Jingya wanted to appease her father-in-law and stop him from continuing his interrogation. Who knew this father-in-law was really not easy to deal with.

"Is it because of Qianxue?" Ye Guoxian answered firmly, "Actually, I can guess if you don't tell me. He's married to you, and Qianxue is back. I'm not sure what his feelings for you are now, but I know very well what his feelings for qianxue were in the past."

Although his father-in-law's words were realistic, they were also true.

"It's not because of her, it's a problem between us."

A flash of gloom flashed through Jing Ya's eyes, and the piercing father-in-law saw it all. He said faintly, "All right, go back to your room."

At 10 pm, Ye Beicheng came back from outside. He had a few drinks tonight, and he was a little light.

As he passed the living room, a servant of the family walked over to him and said, "Young master, old master asked you to come back and make sure to go to his room."

He paused and nodded.

Pushing open his father's bedroom door, he asked softly, "Dad, are you asleep?"

The lights in the room had been turned off. Except for the faint moonlight outside the window, every corner was covered in grey.

"No."

Ye Guoxian's old and weak voice came into his ears from the darkness. He walked in, turned on the lights in the room, and walked to the bed to help his father up.

"What can I do for you?"

"Why are you back so late these nights? Quarreled with your wife?"

Ye Beicheng frowned doubtfully, "Jing Ya told you?"

"She didn't tell me. I called you here today to tell you not to be emotionally ambivalent. Now that you're married to Jing Ya, you have to take responsibility for her. Although Qianxue was the woman you loved deeply in the past, but since you missed these three years, it means that there's no fate between you. Since there's no fate, why bother with her?"

"You misunderstood. I didn't get tangled up with her."

Master ye retorted in disbelief, "Misunderstanding? Do you think I don't know anything when I'm lying in bed all day? Since your trip back, you two have never stepped into this room at the same time!"

"Dad, what are you doing?" Ye Beicheng looked at him painfully, "You're in such bad health. Is it necessary to ask about these things? We'll take care of our own business. You just need to get well."

"Well, you and your wife have a good understanding. You both said you would settle it. How many days have you been back? Are you done with it?"

Ye Beicheng concluded, and master ye was even more reasonable: "I tell you, Jing Ya is a good woman, you can't hurt her in a moment of confusion, if you want to divorce her in a moment of confusion, I will never agree!"

"...

Ye Beicheng stared at his father, puzzled, and asked in a questioning tone, "Dad, how did you suddenly change so much? Didn't you and mom used to hate her the most? I find it strange that you don't reject her when she comes to see you these days. Now that I'm not allowed to divorce her and even praise her as a good woman, wouldn't it be confusing for you to say such things from your mouth?"

"What's so confusing? I used to dislike her because I didn't know what was good about her. Now I'm saying she's good because she's really good. I've seen the value of this daughter-in-law!"

Ye Guoxian's face was serious, and it was obvious that everything he said was true.

"Dad, why don't you tell me how valuable she is?"

"Just ignore her all day long, and she can tell that she's valuable by covering for you. If you don't say it's someone else, just say it's your mother. Do you think she'll cover for me? She doesn't know what to do yet."

It was fine for Ye Guoxian not to mention dou huayue. When he mentioned her, Ye Beicheng found out that his mother was not in the room.

"Where's my mother?" He asked doubtfully.

"Where else can she go? I went to play cards. After lunch these days, I went out to play. If I didn't play until 12 o' clock at night, I wouldn't come back..."

"Then why don't you talk about her? You're not in good health now. How about you have no one to take care of you at night?" Ye Beicheng was suddenly very angry.

"Well, I've never said anything about her in my life. Now that I'm old, why should I say anything about her? It's because of your mother that I feel like you've found a good wife and I don't want you to let Jing Ya down. You have to cherish and hold her well. Without her, you won't be happy."

"Okay, got it."

He pressed his father's shoulder, "Go to bed early. Don't worry about these things. I've contacted an english doctor and will come over next week for your consultation."

"I don't have to worry about it, but you have to know that marriage is not just a matter of fate, it's also a matter of fate..."

Ye Beicheng nodded, tucked him in and quietly left the room.

Jing Ya was curled up in the quilt, but she had been paying attention to what was happening outside. She was used to waiting for him to come back before falling asleep, although the two of them did not say a word.

Ye Beicheng took a bath, walked to the bed, lifted the quilt on Jing Ya's head, and said softly, "I know you're not asleep."

Jing Ya ignored him, her eyes closed tightly. Although she could not see the man behind her, she could feel the complexity and depth of his eyes...

"Get up and we'll talk."

Jing Ya didn't move, so he bent over to wake her up, but she pushed him away as soon as he got close to her.

"Don't try to be strong with me. It's your habit, but it doesn't always work!"

Ye Beicheng paused, sat back on the edge of the bed, turned his back to her and said, "You're really good."

Jing Ya did not react for a moment and raised his eyebrows in confusion, "What am I good at?"

"Even if grandpa helped you in the past, because he liked you, but now my stubborn old man actually helped you. It's unbelievable how much he hated you back then."

"Is there a problem? Or do you have any objections?"

Ye Beicheng smiled, "What can I say? It's too late for me to be happy. My greatest hope in the past was that you wouldn't be ostracized by them. Now..."

"It's not much better now. Don't you think it's really great if you get your mom done?" Jing Ya interrupted him angrily.

"I'm afraid you can forget about my mother. She's not that easy to deal with."

In fact, Ye Beicheng said these words just to talk to her. God knows how hard it was for him to sleep with different hearts...

"It doesn't matter. I never thought of it that way."

She pulled the quilt that he pulled off and put it back on her head. She rolled over and went back to sleep, as if not interested in his conversation.

"I drank some wine tonight."

"Yeah."

"I didn't drink last night, but I hit a blind drunk."

"Oh."

"Shall we have lunch tomorrow?"

"Okay."

"You ignored me these days. I've lost my appetite."

"Oh."

No matter what Ye Beicheng said, Jing Ya was a yes, oh, yes answer. He angrily pulled her over and forced her to look at him, "Why are you so stingy with me? One more word will kill you!"

"Of course not, but why should I talk more?"

"...

Ye Beicheng looked at her with disdain and said frantically, "Are you really going to care about me?"

"Yes, that's what I plan to do."

Jing Ya admitted without concealment that this was the truth. What he said on the boat that night was enough to break her heart.

"I was too angry at that time, so I was a little blunt. Can you not remember it so clearly?"

"No." She raised her chin, "I have a pretty good memory. Besides, what position did you have to be angry with me at that time? Is it because you jumped into the sea to save lives, and I didn't jump down to live and die with you?"
