Reborn I will never be a dog lick

Although this is not the first time that Xu Zhimu visits his father-in-law.

Moreover, every father-in-law’s personality is different, but father-in-laws all over the world have one thing in common, that is, they all deliberately keep a straight face at the beginning.

I also took the opportunity to beat this kid.

Xu Zhimu remembered that the last time he met Ye Luojia's father, he was "invited" by his father's bodyguard.

Of course, neither of them would say anything about it.

Three people were sitting at the table, and one or two dishes were already placed on the table.

After all, the Ye family is a big family, and ordinary family banquets usually include delicacies from all over the world.

But today's two dishes are ordinary home-cooked side dishes, and they are all fried by themselves.

But the more this is the case, it means that in Ye Luojia's father's place, they have a relationship where they can sit together and have home-cooked meals.

Xu Zhimu also looked around the room calmly. The room was very clean, the decoration was relatively simple but just right, and there was no shortage of everything that should be there.

In the steel forest of a metropolitan city like Kyoto, this small courtyard is like a stream of fresh air, making people feel a touch of warmth and comfort.

Several people in the room looked at each other, and no one spoke first.

Ye Luojia may have been accustomed to this way of getting along. At this moment, she was sitting next to Xu Zhimu. The two people's hands were still holding each other under the table, but their expressions were somewhat difficult to keep calm.

After all, I am here to meet my parents today.

Ye Qinghai looked at them, feeling complicated in his heart. After all, this day has come.

No matter what happened in the past, Ye Luojia was his only daughter after all.

He was sorry for her mother, and this guilt made him give in little by little to his original thoughts, especially the many changes in the past two years.

It finally made him understand that the so-called money and status may seem glorious but may be lost overnight. Only love can survive the wind and rain.

"Jiajia is here. This young man must be Zhimu. He is indeed a talented person."

At this moment, the door was pushed open, and a woman with a gentle temperament walked in, holding a plate of stir-fried vegetables in her hand, and broke the awkward atmosphere with a smile.

Xu Zhimu looked at her and then at Ye Luojia and his daughter.

"Aunt Song." Ye Luojia responded softly.

Xu Zhimu also shouted as well.

"Okay, there's soup simmering in the pot. You guys eat first. I'll warm up a bottle of wine for you. You two can have some when we meet for the first time."

Aunt Song listened to the names Ye Luojia and Xu Zhimu called. Although Ye Luojia shouted in a low voice, she also smiled happily.

With that said, he turned around and brought back a bottle of wine. He even prepared a glass of wine and placed it in front of Ye Luojia.

Then he turned around and went out to work again.

Xu Zhimu was thoughtful, looking at the wine bottles on the table, and immediately stood up to pour wine for his future father-in-law.

"Uncle Ye, it's our first time meeting you. I'll pour you one."

Although this is not the first time they have met, after all, he is his father-in-law, so he must still give him this face.

Ye Qinghai looked at him, it had been almost three years.

I still remember the first time I met this kid three years ago. He was still a childish boy.

Nowadays, all aspects have matured too much, and at such a young age, he single-handedly founded the M Group Group, which is about to be listed today, although Ye Luojia helped him a lot in the early stage.

But it was also the most basic financial aspects. All the key decisions of the company, large and small, were made by him alone, as if he had experienced it personally, avoiding almost all catastrophic mistakes.

He has reached this point in just two or three years. Looking around the world, he can be regarded as an absolute young talent and a young prodigy.

In Xu Zhimu, he saw the shadow of his hard work in the sea, but there were also some things that he failed to achieve...

He looked at Ye Luojia, who was a little nervous at the moment, then looked at Xu Zhimu, and finally let out a sigh of relief.

"Sit down, don't be restrained, sit down and eat first."

Ye Qinghai's voice also became gentler.

After that, Aunt Song served several more dishes one after another. There was not much conversation at the dinner table, just like the awkward atmosphere when many people came to visit for the first time.

Especially Xu Zhimu's identity has been clearly investigated by others.

Ordinary people will first ask where you are from, how many people are in your family, and what do your parents do.

But these are not important to Ye Qinghai at all. He doesn't care if other people's families have money. Anyway, he himself is a wealthy family. What he values ​​​​is the other party's ability and future achievements.

Xu Zhimu also felt that he didn’t know where to start for a while.

People have already investigated their education, family conditions, and jobs. They are from Zhengcheng, a family of three, and now have two fiancées. Well, there will be a third one soon.

Xu Zhimu was afraid that if he said it, he would not be able to walk out of this door today.

In this situation, usually the girlfriend will find some topic to talk about.

But he looked at Ye Luojia beside him.

Well, this female CEO feels a little more uncomfortable than herself.

At this moment, the door was pushed open again. Aunt Song's eyes met Ye Qinghai's slightly, and then she came to Ye Luojia with a smile: "Jiajia, Auntie is going to get something back from the front. There is soup in the kitchen.

Can you go and watch first?"

Ye Luojia's eyes moved slightly, and she knew that this was an excuse to let Xu Zhimu talk to her father alone.

She subconsciously looked at Xu Zhimu, and Xu Zhimu patted her little hand slightly, smiled and said: "It's okay, I'll drink some with uncle here, you go first."

Ye Luojia looked at his father again, and Ye Qinghai also nodded to her.

At this time, Ye Luojia stood up slowly, turned around and left the room with Aunt Song.

There were only two people left in the room.

"Uncle Ye, if you have anything to say, you can say it now."

Without Ye Luojia around, Xu Zhimu also spoke directly.

Ye Qinghai looked at him, his originally gentle gaze gradually regained its previous sense of oppression, scrutinizing Xu Zhimu like a sharp knife.

"How do you plan to see me when you come today?"

His words made it very clear. He knew Xu Zhimu's situation very well. He was already engaged to another girl, but as long as the marriage was not confirmed, everything could be changed before that.

However, now that Xu Zhimu is still living with that girl, and here he comes directly, then what is his identity in coming to this home.

Xu Zhimu also knew that the people of the Ye family were filled with pride and that this would not be an easy thing, but the decision he had already made could not be changed even if the King of Heaven came.

"Uncle Ye, Jiajia and I are partners for life in the future, and I will marry her."

Xu Zhimu spoke very seriously, looking at his father-in-law.

After all, Ye Qinghai has been in charge of the huge Ye family for more than ten years. Standing at the pinnacle of power, a look in his eyes can make it difficult for ordinary people to resist.

His voice was calm, but like an undercurrent of the ocean: "What about your fiancée? You have to make a choice."

The last half sentence seemed to be a statement, but it was more like an order or even a threat.

Xu Zhimu looked at him, thought for a moment, looked around the cozy hut, and finally smiled softly, looking at Ye Qinghai calmly: "Uncle Ye, you regret the choice you made back then.

?"

Ye Qinghai's hand suddenly shook.

Xu Zhimu looked at the room and continued: "Jiajia told me something about you. When you left this home alone to start a business, it was your choice. You got the money and status you wanted.

, maybe you have met another person, but there are some things that you will regret for the rest of your life."

These things are the things buried in Ye Qinghai's heart that he least wants to face.

The older people get, the more afraid they are of facing the past, especially the irreparable past.

"What do you know? For some things, you have to make a choice, otherwise you will just..."

Before Ye Qinghai finished speaking, Xu Zhimu interrupted him.

"This house should be where you and Jiajia's mother lived before. I've looked at a lot of details. Every corner of the room has been cleaned, but it's obvious that there are still no traces of living there.

This means that you regretted your choice back then and wanted to make amends and go back, but in the end you found that there was nothing you could do about it, because by choosing this thing, you were destined to have no way back.

Uncle Ye, I can understand your mood, so I rarely do single-choice questions in my life. Single-choice questions have clear right and wrong, but multiple-choice questions...maybe sometimes the score will be higher?"

Xu Zhimu expressed his inner thoughts implicitly yet very straightforwardly.

"you!"

Ye Qinghai was speechless for a moment: "My daughter, Ye Qinghai, do you want her to have a...what kind of reputation in the eyes of others?"

"Uncle Ye, do you think that in this life, is other people's eyes more important, or is your own happiness more important?"

Xu Zhimu spoke and looked at the door: "Aunt Song just now is probably the person you met again, but after so many years, you have neither forgotten the past nor given Aunt Song a real answer.

Is this the life you want?"

Ye Qinghai was stunned for a moment and looked at the clean room. The scene from the past seemed to appear in front of his eyes.

"Uncle Ye, if you were given a chance to choose again, would you still choose the current situation?"

Ye Qinghai listened to Xu Zhimu's soul inquiry, and countless pictures seemed to appear in front of his eyes.

Yes, for so many years, he has actually never been able to let go of Ye Luojia's mother. He has never given a definite answer to the woman around him now, and he has been estranged from his daughter for so many years...

He is a successful person in his career.

But when it comes to family, he is a complete loser.

He suddenly thought of another possibility. What if his choice back then could have been different?

Maybe they were poked in the back and scolded for being incompetent, or maybe they were criticized by others because of themselves.

But at least, at the last moment when Jiajia's mother passed away, she could still have an unqualified husband by her side.

Ye Luojia also had a father to accompany her when she was a child, so that she would not spend her childhood being ostracized by her family.

And the woman around her now may be able to give her the answer she wants sooner...

Maybe it's true that sometimes it's better to be more magnanimous, even if you are called a scumbag, than to let the people around you suffer the greatest pain with you.

Just like Xu Zhimu said.

The multiple-choice questions seem simple and clear, but once you make a mistake, there is no room for recovery.

For multiple-choice questions, the answer may not be unique, but it will always get you some points.

Everyone wants a single-minded relationship, but everyone's life is different. God may have arranged such a unique life for you.

We all like innocent endings, but if things come to this point, it is better to accept it openly than to have a more regretful ending.

Xu Zhimu is determined to be a scumbag.

If it were the former Ye Qinghai, he might really have to die for Xu Zhimu.

But now, he found that a "hypocrite" like himself was worse than such an honest bastard.

Ye Qinghai's eyes kept wandering around the room, as if he could still recall scenes from the past.

The woman who stood at the door every day with a bit of restraint and shame waiting for him to come home for dinner, even though she could hardly go home for several months. In the end, she even abandoned her, but she never complained.

Ye Qinghai felt a little sore in his nose. He squeezed the wine glass in his hand so hard that the wine would spill out.

Yes, he really regretted it, but it was too late.

He raised his glass and took a big gulp, but the spicy stimulation couldn't stop the bitterness in his heart.

The pressure from all aspects during this period has also made this man who has everything to do with everything really feel a little tense at the moment.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Xu Zhimu looked at him, drank a glass with him silently, and refilled it for him.

The two of them didn't talk, just drank one cup after another.

A bottle of wine was consumed by two people.

Ye Qinghai's eyes were a little red, and he murmured: "I'm sorry for her, and I failed to take good care of Jiajia. I've let down too many people..."

Ye Qinghai shook his head and showed a wry smile: "I used to think that I could control everything, but in the end I realized that I had already thrown away the most important thing about myself.

I know Jiajia resents me. I have not married in these years because I am afraid that Jiajia and I will break up completely. I am an unfit father, but she... is also my only daughter."

Ye Qinghai's voice trembled. He took out an old pocket watch from his arms, opened it, and looked at the photos inside.

The pressure he had squeezed over the years seemed to be a bit unbearable at this moment. He said with a trembling voice: "Before, I always thought that I could slowly compensate Jiajia, but now, it may be really difficult for me."

Done...I'm sorry..."

Xu Zhimu's eyes saw the photo in the pocket watch.

When he was young, Ye Qinghai was also a handsome young man. Next to him was a woman with simple long hair, a graceful temperament, a pair of beautiful pink and phoenix eyes, and a tear mole under her eyes.

And between the two people stood a little girl who was as carefully carved as a porcelain doll.

Although he looks only five or six years old, his eyebrows are already very beautiful. He inherited his mother's red and phoenix eyes, and he has been carrying a kind of nobility since he was a child. Moreover, at this moment, Ye Luojia's smiling eyes are curved, and her white teeth are still...

There are two small tiger teeth.

Looks extremely playful and cute.

Perhaps, this is the Ye Luojia from before.

"This is Jiajia's mother. She was very cute when she was a child...but I haven't seen her smile for a long, long time."

Ye Qinghai drank wine at this moment, and the pressure of these years was about to crush this middle-aged man at this moment.

Xu Zhimu knew what he was afraid of.

Nowadays, the Ye family is in turmoil, with internal and external troubles. Ye Qinghai, apart from all his glory, is a failed father and a tired middle-aged man.

If he can't survive this crisis in the Ye family, the family will no longer be able to accommodate Jiajia.

As if to show off, he showed Xu Zhimu how Ye Luojia looked before, but his voice was filled with bitterness.

Xu Zhimu looked at the photo and saw Ye Luojia's happy smile.

What a domineering female CEO, she looked even more naughty than An Xiaomi when she was a child.

With the support of parents, of course you can laugh without any worries. No one wants to be born cold and unwilling to approach others.

Those...are all defenses and disguises she gave herself.

Xu Zhimu looked at him and raised his glass: "Uncle Ye, I promise you, I will make Jiajia have such a smile again. This is my vow as a man."

Ye Qinghai looked at Xu Zhimu, who was smiling seriously at the moment.

Very much like him before.

But at that time, he chose the wrong path, and in Xu Zhimu, he seemed to see another better path.

Ye Qinghai didn't speak, but he raised his wine glass, touched it with Xu Zhimu, and drank it all in one gulp.

…

Outside the door, Ye Luojia stood quietly at the door.

The words in the room were blown into her ears by the cold night wind.

Her long burgundy hair moved in the wind. She raised her head, and her beautiful red phoenix eyes seemed to be reflecting the starlight in the sky at this moment.

She seemed to be thinking about the past, with her beautiful face sometimes bitter and sometimes smiling...

On the side of the kitchen, Aunt Song also leaned gently against the window, looking at Ye Luojia and the room with warm lights. Finally, she shook her head slightly and smiled, then turned around and continued making soup.

But suddenly, the kitchen door was pushed open.

Aunt Song looked at Ye Luojia who appeared.

"Jiajia..."

"Aunt Song, let me cook a meal too."

Ye Luojia bent her sleeves, gently untied her apron and put it around herself.

This gentle movement made Aunt Song stunned for a long time, and finally she showed a faint smile.
