The deadline arrived on the last day, and Ye Qianzhi once again traveled to the imperial capital by private jet.
Di Mingjue had made arrangements for his arrival. As soon as the plane landed at the imperial capital airport, Ye Qianzhi, at Shen Lin's invitation, went to the Di residence.
"Mr. Ye, please come in." Shen Lin opened the car door for him.
Looking at the Di residence before him, Ye Qianzhi walked inside.
Before his arrival, Di Mingjue had informed the old lady and Di Jianhan about Jiang Ziyu's background.
The family, dressed formally, sat on the sofa awaiting Ye Qianzhi's arrival.
"Uncle, allow me to introduce my grandmother and my father." Di Mingjue introduced them to Ye Qianzhi.
The Ye family was legendary, dominating the Four Nine City.
The old lady greeted him politely, "Hello."
Ye Qianzhi casually extended his hand in response.
"You are his father?" Di Jianhan suddenly asked.
This was just like a plot from a television drama, melodramatic and absurd. He had never imagined that the family of the daughter-in-law he looked down upon was so powerful!
Ye Qianzhi glanced at Di Jianhan, not taking him seriously. He naturally invited the old lady to sit down with him and looked up at Jiang Ziyu, "I've heard everything. I was indeed mistaken about your mother. Since the true culprit has been found and brought to justice, I will no longer object to you being together."
The corners of Di Mingjue's lips turned up, and he looked at Jiang Ziyu with joy.
Ye Qianzhi observed their subtle exchange and continued, "But I do have one condition." xxs壹贰
The smile vanished instantly, and Jiang Ziyu looked at Ye Qianzhi with displeasure.
His sudden appearance, being forced to learn he was her biological father. Nothing had been considered from her perspective, yet he used their blood relation to forcefully impose his will upon her.
Jiang Ziyu's tone was tinged with dissatisfaction, "What condition?"
"Come back to the Ye family with me."
"Impossible."
Ye Qianzhi puffed out his chest and stood up from the sofa, "Why?"
"I have my own family, and I will not go to the Ye family with you," Jiang Ziyu replied.
Upon hearing that she was reluctant to leave Di Mingjue, Ye Qianzhi's expression softened. He looked at Di Mingjue, "Your entire family of five will come back to the Ye family with me. The Ye family is no lesser than the Di family; living with me will elevate your status even higher than here. I also want to compensate you properly."
Compensate?
Jiang Ziyu found it amusing, "I don't need any compensation."
He had truly wronged her mother, not her. Jiang Ziyu didn't know what had transpired between him and her mother back then. But if he had loved her mother as much as Di Mingjue loved her, no matter what schemes were concocted behind the scenes, he would not have let her mother leave in disappointment.
Sensing her inner resistance, Ye Qianzhi knew he couldn't rush things.
"You don't need to rush to accept me. Take a few days to think it over." Ye Qianzhi conceded.
Di Mingjue invited him to stay for dinner at the Di residence, but he declined, citing matters to attend to in the Four Nine City.
Before leaving, he specifically took out the token of love he had with Lu Yuman and placed it in Jiang Ziyu's hand, stating that he had been searching for Lu Yuman all these years and had never given up on her and their daughter.
Watching the plane fly away, Jiang Ziyu fell into a pensive state.
"Actually, Uncle's proposal isn't unfeasible," Di Mingjue said, stroking Jiang Ziyu's arm. Seeing her look up at him, he touched her furrowed brow. "It's evident that he deeply loved your mother, and upon learning of your existence, he transferred that love for your mother to you. Ziyu, I know you never had paternal affection growing up. You can try to accept him."
Every word resonated with Jiang Ziyu. Now that she had found love in her partner, she still yearned for her father's love.
When she was little, she watched Jiang Wenbin hold Jiang Feifei, showering her with paternal love. Because of this fatherly affection, Jiang Feifei could indulge in spoiled affection without restraint.
