“That’s incorrect. I am his father, his biological father. Am I not?”
“Yes, you are. You are his biological father, but we…. We don’t even know each other.”
“Well, all of us will be strangers until we meet. The married couples who live together now, have they known each other since they were born? They also got to know each other before getting married. Although there are slips in our sequence and we had a child before getting married, there are quite a lot of people with our situation that have lived a happy life until today. Even the shows and novels have the same plot. The female lead would be pregnant and then only be married in later episodes. Further on, they would only start dating after that. With so many previous examples, we can use them as references.”
The corner of Ling Siqi’s eyelid jumped.
She noticed that even when she had been regularly updating herself with the news of this man on social media, she still didn’t know him.
As the CEO of the richest company in Country Z, shouldn’t he be more worried about the country’s economy, the stock market, and shares? Why would he know about all these melodramas?!
“But… But…”
Ling Siqi was getting annoyed. She was never someone who would stutter. In fact, she was part of the debate team for her class, but now she couldn’t even complete one sentence.
Di Yunxi’s chain of thoughts was completely different from hers.
“But? Tell me what it is, and I will help you out.”
Seeing how sincere he was, Ling Siqi mustered up some courage and said, “Although you might not have met someone that you liked now, there will be a time when that woman will appear. Then, you would want to be married to her and have children with her. Xiao Chen would get hurt then. I would rather rip the bandage off now and tell him the truth. He is a thoughtful boy, and even though it is our fault for lying, it would still hurt him less.
Ling Siqi chuckled as she spoke, but when she saw how Di Yunxi was getting mad, she decided to stop.
She thought that Di Yunxi would scream at her, but instead, he suggested, “I understand where you’re coming from, but if you don’t mind, we can get married today. I will put 30% of the shares that I own under your name.”
Ling Siqi was about to lose her mind.
The Di family was the richest family in the entire country! Their wealth was not measurable by millions, but by billions! Hundreds of billions!
Forget about getting one-third, even one-tenth of it was already a huge amount.
Ling Siqi freaked out as she quickly shook her hand and said, “That’s not what I meant. I don’t want your money…”
“I know that this wasn’t what you implied,” Di Yunxi said carelessly. “You are worried that I might meet the woman that I love in the future and marry her in the end, which might hurt Xiao Chen. Now, I’m practically showing you that you are the woman who belongs in my life. I only want to date you, the mother of my son. If you don’t trust me, I have already given you the shares. Once we are divorced, my company would be in grave danger.
“So, giving you a part of my shares isn’t because I want to thank you for giving me a son. I am giving you a part to reassure you that I will not divorce you once we get married. We can be like the other couples, growing old together with our son by our side.”
