Ye Yanran was taken aback when Jiang Yi arrived but quickly recovered.
"You're here!"
Ye Yanran came back to her senses, smiling, "This is our daughter, Xiao Bei. Hold her!"
With that, Ye Yanran placed the baby Xiao Bei into Jiang Yi's arms.
Jiang Yi held Xiao Bei carefully, gazing at her adorable appearance. He felt an indescribable joy.
He was finally a father!
This was something Jiang Yi had never imagined before.
"Don't you think Xiao Bei's eyes look a lot like yours?" Ye Yanran asked Jiang Yi.
Hearing Ye Yanran's voice, Jiang Yi snapped back to attention and smiled, "They do resemble mine somewhat!"
Ye Yanran smiled gently.
"We look so much like a family now. It would be wonderful if we could always be together!"
Ye Yanran looked at Jiang Yi, her face filled with anticipation, "I hope we can be together again. I'll agree to any conditions if you do. If you don't want me to stay with the Xiao family, I can leave!"
"I don't think you should make such a decision. Once your memory returns, you won't have these thoughts!" Jiang Yi said.
"Even if my memory returns, I know I'll definitely want to be with you. Even if you don't like me, what about our child? Don't you like children?" Ye Yanran said.
Jiang Yi didn't know how to explain to Ye Yanran.
She had lost her past memories and didn't know many things. Otherwise, she wouldn't say such words.
"I will keep waiting until you agree!"
Ye Yanran said.
Jiang Yi took a deep breath. He knew what Ye Yanran was thinking.
But he couldn't do it.
Since they were divorced, there was no longer any possibility for him and Ye Yanran.
Now that Ye Yanran had amnesia, even though he didn't have that kind of thought, it would still feel like he was taking advantage of her situation.
"I heard you have a girlfriend now!" Ye Yanran said to Jiang Yi.
"Yes!"
Jiang Yi nodded, "She's Dongfang Mei. You've met her!"
"Miss Dongfang is indeed very beautiful, and she's also the eldest daughter of the Dongfang family. However, I don't think you two are a good match!"
Ye Yanran looked at Jiang Yi and said, "I know you might be angry hearing me say this, but I'm telling the truth. Dongfang Mei's personality is too different from yours. When people with dissimilar personalities are together, their relationship is bound to have problems."
Jiang Yi was stunned!
He hadn't expected to hear such words from Ye Yanran.
"Are you hungry? I'll get you something to eat!" Ye Yanran changed the subject.
"I just ate!"
Jiang Yi replied.
Ye Yanran let out a soft "oh" and didn't know what else to say!
"The Xiao family's company is in big trouble. Do you need my help?" Jiang Yi asked.
Jiang Yi originally didn't want to help, but for the sake of Ye Yanran and Xiao Bei, he decided to help the Xiao family.
He would do it for Ye Yanran and Xiao Bei's sake.
Otherwise, even if the Xiao family knelt down and begged him, he wouldn't offer any assistance.
"I've heard about the company's situation!"
Ye Yanran said, "If the company's troubles can't be resolved, the Xiao family will go bankrupt. As the head of the Xiao family, I have a responsibility to do something for them. It would be best if you could help me!"
"Mm!"
Jiang Yi nodded.
At that moment, Xiao Wenbin was standing by the door of the room. Upon overhearing Jiang Yi's agreement to help the Xiao family, Xiao Wenbin was overjoyed.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yi glanced at the child and then said to Ye Yanran, "I have some matters to attend to. I'll be leaving now!"
"Okay!"
Although Ye Yanran was reluctant, she nodded.
She knew that Jiang Yi wouldn't stay.
Jiang Yi turned and left the room.
As soon as he stepped outside, he saw Xiao Wenbin standing by the door.
"Mr. Jiang, you agreed to help our Xiao family?" Xiao Wenbin asked.
"You were eavesdropping?" Jiang Yi's brows furrowed slightly.
Fearing Jiang Yi's displeasure, Xiao Wenbin quickly said, "I overheard just now by accident. I wasn't eavesdropping. How would I dare?"
Jiang Yi let out a cold laugh. Seeing Xiao Wenbin's demeanor, he knew the man wasn't telling the truth. He had definitely been hiding by the door, listening to his conversation with Ye Yanran.
"Remember what you promised me earlier. Protect Xiao Bei!" Jiang Yi said.
"Mr. Jiang, don't worry! I will definitely keep my promise. As long as I'm here, no one will dare to harm a single hair on Xiao Bei's head," Xiao Wenbin said hastily.
Jiang Yi said nothing and walked directly towards the hall. Su Dan Novel Network.
Meanwhile, in the first-floor hall, Xiao Cuiying, Xiao Defu, and other members of the Xiao family were discussing how to ask Jiang Yi for help.
Ye's father, Ye's mother, and Ye Xiaofeng stood aside, not saying a word.
Living under the Xiao family's roof, they naturally dared not interfere in the Xiao family's affairs.
"No matter what, we must ask Jiang Yi for help this time, otherwise, our Xiao family will be finished!"
Xiao Defu frowned and said, "I just received another call from the company. The company urgently needs a highly sought-after product to resolve its troubles. The only thing that can save our company now is 'Beauty Perfume' from Tiansheng Group. This perfume sold out within an hour of its release. In the cosmetics industry, achieving such astonishing results has only ever been done by Tiansheng Group's 'Beauty Perfume'."
"If I ask Jiang Yi for help, he definitely won't help!" Xiao Cuiying said.
"You're in charge of the Xiao family's affairs now. Only if you ask Jiang Yi will it work!" Xiao Defu said.
Everyone's gaze fell upon Xiao Cuiying.
Now, Xiao Cuiying was filled with regret.
She regretted the harsh words she had spoken to Jiang Yi earlier, saying she wouldn't ask him for help.
"Fine, I'll swallow my pride and beg Jiang Yi later,"
Xiao Cuiying took a deep breath and said, "If Jiang Yi refuses to help, then I can't do anything. Our Xiao family will just have to wait for ruin!"
"We don't like the sound of that!"
Xiao Defu's gaze fell on Xiao Cuiying as he said calmly, "Judging by your tone, if Jiang Yi doesn't agree, you'll just let our Xiao family's company go bankrupt? Don't forget, if it weren't for your insistence on going against Jiang Yi and publicly humiliating him, things wouldn't have turned out this way. It's because of you that our Xiao family has reached this point. If you want to wash your hands of it, none of us in the Xiao family will agree!"
"Are you trying to force me into a corner?" Xiao Cuiying said angrily.
"We're not forcing you into a corner; you're forcing yourself into one!"
Xiao Defu said, "You've harmed our Xiao family to this extent, and now you want to abandon us? That won't do. Even if I agreed, others wouldn't."
