Ouyang Feng sat upright without drinking the coffee in front of him, he didn’t say anything, he was waiting for Ling Tianyi to say something first. He didn’t want his granddaughter to be wronged in the future, so he must investigate Ling Tianyi in detail.
Ouyang Ziqian was entangled in his heart. On the one hand, he didn’t want Ling Tianyi to continue to hurt Xia Xiaoluo anymore. On the other hand, he believed that Ling Tianyi really loved Xia Xiaoluo, because he has been looking for Xia Xiaoluo continuously these years as well.
“Grandpa, I will briefly introduce myself!” Ling Tianyi said. Although he knew that it was easy to investigate his situation with the strength of the Ouyang family, he must be polite to the elders, and he should respect the elders as well.
When they were talking at the restaurant, Ling Tianyi sent a message to his secretary Luna, asking her to prepare a proper gift for Ouyang Feng quickly today. Then he had to inquire about Ouyang Feng’s hobbies as soon as possible so that he could send a big present when he made a proposal in the future.
Seeing Ouyang Feng’s expression, Ling Tianyi knew that if he wanted to marry Xia Xiaoluo, he must get Ouyang Feng’s consent.
Ling Tianyi briefly introduced his company and his family background. Then he began to express his love for Xia Xiaoluo. For example, he had been looking for Xia Xiaoluo and Taotao for so many years, experiencing many difficulties. After that, Ling Tianyi said to Ouyang Ziqian deliberately, “Little Sir Ouyang, am I right? In order to find Xiaoluo and Taotao, I’ve been following you for a long time.”
Ouyang Ziqian smiled helplessly and nodded, “Grandpa, frankly speaking, Manager Ling has been looking for Xiaoluo these years, but too many things happened to them before, so I dare not to tell him Xiaoluo’s situation, for fear that he will hurt her.”
“I will not hurt Xiaoluo. I love her, and I will protect her. Not only will I not hurt her, no one else could hurt her as well. I swear, I won’t let Xiaoluo cry again,” Ling Tianyi said hurriedly. Thinking that Ouyang Ziqian was Xiaoluo’s cousin, Ouyang Ziqian couldn’t be a couple with Xia Xiaoluo, but he still didn’t want to help him. So Ling Tianyi had to spend a long time in getting along well with his future brother-in-law.
“However, countless facts had proved that Xiaoluo was always hurt when she was with you!” Ouyang Ziqian still insisted. If Xia Xiaoluo chose Ling Tianyi, he would give them blessings and supports. However, he always thought that no matter whom Xia Xiaoluo married, anyone was more reliable than Ling Tianyi. He knew that Ling Tianyi loved Xia Xiaoluo, but he didn’t believe that Ling Tianyi could protect Xiaoluo from being hurt.
“I actually made some mistakes on the things in the past. But now I just want to seize happiness, giving Taotao a happy life.” Xia Xiaoluo mentioned Taotao, “Grandpa, Cousin, I hope that Taotao can live with his biological father, like other children, growing up with his parents.”
Ouyang Feng sighed. As for Taotao, he did hope that Taotao would have a happy family.
“Ling Tianyi?” Ouyang Feng called Ling Tianyi’s name, but he was not sure if the name was right.
“Yes, Grandpa, please!” Ling Tianyi answered hurriedly.
“Why did Xiaoluo escape when she was pregnant? If Ziqian did not help her, and we recognized each other at the right time, I couldn’t imagine what their life would be like. I was always afraid when I thought of it. I need you to give me a reasonable explanation!” Ouyang Feng asked directly, which embarrassed Ling Tianyi deeply.
Ling Tianyi was still thinking about how to explain it while Ouyang Feng asked the second question.
“You say that you will love Xiaoluo, and you will protect her. But the greatest security a man can give a woman is not the money, not the fight, not the sweet words, but the marriage. You have had a child, so why don’t you marry her?”
“Grandpa, there are many misunderstandings!” Xia Xiaoluo said hurriedly, she knew it was not easy to explain.
“Xiaoluo, don’t help him all the time. Think about it, because of him, you have suffered a lot. You can’t forget it, or I will worry about you,” Ouyang Ziqian said.
“Cousin, please believe in my judgment and respect my choice,” Xia Xiaoluo said firmly to Ouyang Ziqian.
Ling Tianyi looked at Xia Xiaoluo with gratitude. Then Xia Xiaoluo said to Ouyang Feng, “Grandpa, we both made mistakes in the past. For many things, I am not rational enough to deal with, and I didn’t consider all the aspects of problems as well, causing a lot of troubles.”
“Frankly speaking, he really hurt me. I even dared not to accept him for a while. But he also saved me. Without him, maybe I could not be alive now,” Xia Xiaoluo said. She thought of the scene of being pushed into the well by Xia Jingru. Without Ling Tianyi, she could not live at all.
Ling Tianyi didn’t want Xia Xiaoluo to protect him all the time. So he cleared his throat and said, “Grandpa, Ziqian, I know that you treat Xiaoluo well, hoping that she won’t be hurt in the future. At this point, we share the same idea, and I hope that Xiaoluo could live a happy life in the future as well.”
“Today, since we have the opportunity to talk together, I’ll tell all the things about Xiaoluo and me clearly to you. You can interrupt me at any time and ask me any questions. I will answer your questions directly,” Ling Tianyi said seriously.
“Very good! Then you can answer my questions, which I asked you just now, in detail!” Ouyang Feng said.
“Yes!” After Ling Tianyi finished, he made the decision, and he told Ouyang Feng and Ouyang Ziqian all the things about him and Xiao Xiaoluo. He knew that it was not the time to cover up. He should admit his faults and showed his attitude honestly, then he could have a possibility to win the trust of the Ouyang family.
“What? When Xiaoluo sent the takeout, you did…” Ouyang Feng was about to collapse.
“Grandpa, but he really took me to register for marriage at that time. But there was something wrong.” Xia Xiaoluo protected Ling Tianyi.
“Ziqian, you need to investigate whether it was really an accident or the bastard just cheated Xiaoluo on purpose,” Ouyang Feng roared.
Ling Tianyi nodded. Of course, he agreed that Ouyang Ziqian should investigate it, and then he added, “I’m regretful for the carelessness that time. If our marriage was effective at that time, many things would not happen in the following days. That’s my fault, so I want to register for a marriage with Xiaoluo now. We can become a legal couple, and I can give her a sense of security.”
“Grandpa, I continue to tell you about the things next!” Ling Tianyi said, and then he talked a lot.
Ouyang Feng almost knew the whole story from the beginning to the end. He closed his eyes and kept silent for a long time, and then he said, “Xiaoluo, do you still love him after so many things happened? You want to marry him because you love him or just in order to give Taotao a complete family? Tell the truth!”
When Ling Tianyi heard this word, he knew that Ouyang Feng would compromise for Xia Xiaoluo’s willingness.
“Grandpa, I love him! I will only love one person in my life, it is Ling Tianyi, Taotao’s biological father!” Xia Xiaoluo said firmly, without any hesitation.
“Ling Tianyi, although you have explained everything clearly, I also believe in your sincerity. But there are still a few problems!” Ouyang Feng said.
“Grandpa, you can ask anything, any problem can be solved.” Ling Tianyi knew that things were going to be successful, Ouyang Feng was going to talk with him about the terms. As long as Ouyang Feng proposed, he would agree at anything.
“Um! Very good!” Ouyang Feng nodded, “First, your parents don’t like Xiaoluo, so she will be wronged again in the future, and you may not know that. Second, you are the most successful man in A City, and the women around you will disturb Xiaoluo. Third, my granddaughter will get married not only for registering for the marriage with you; it is too casual.”
Ling Tianyi took a deep breath, “Grandpa, don’t worry, these three questions are easy to handle.”
“The first is about my parents. Please don’t mind my straightforward words, because I am a straightforward person. There are three main reasons why my parents don’t like Xiaoluo. First, Xiaoluo’s family background is not good. Xiaoluo’s father, Xia Youfeng, is not very successful in the business circle of A City. But now Xiaoluo is the daughter of the Ouyang family, so my parents dare not to dislike her. Second, they hoped that Xiaoluo could have a child at that time. However, Xiaoluo had a miscarriage due to my mistake. But now we have Taotao, their attitude has changed, and they always encourage me to find Taotao. Third, they hated Xiaoluo for her poor study, but now she is an MBA graduate from a famous university in Y Country, she has been completely changed. Based on the above conditions, I believe that my parents will not hurt Xiaoluo anymore,” Ling Tianyi said.
Ouyang Feng nodded, and then Ling Tianyi added, “The situations happened at that time all because that I was not powerful enough. Although I was the president of Huasheng Group, many shareholders still listened to my father’s words, so I was constrained by many factors. However, I have developed branch companies overseas now. If my parents still treat Xiaoluo bad, I will take her away, or we will go to Y Country. I believe that with my ability, I can develop the branch company in Y Country better than the headquarter in one year, giving Xiaoluo and Taotao the best life. The most important thing is that Xiaoluo can visit the Ouyang at any time, I dare not to bully her with so many people support her. Then I will only give her the whole of my love!”
“Um! What about the other two questions? What are you going to deal with them?” Ouyang Feng seemed to be moved by Ling Tianyi’s words, but he was still worried about the other two problems.
