Chapter 3398

Ye Chen did not immediately inform Gu Qiuyi of this matter.

After arriving in Yanjing by plane with Tawana, he did not leave the airport together with her.

He had already informed Chen Zekai that he would return to Yanjing and stay at the Ye residence tonight, so Chen Zekai had been waiting at the airport for a long time.

Upon landing in Yanjing, to ensure Tawana's privacy, the airport specially arranged a remote parking spot for the aircraft.

At this time, two VIP cars were already waiting there, one to pick up Ye Chen and the other to pick up Tawana.

Ye Chen and Tawana walked down the plane together; Chen Zekai was already standing outside the car waiting, so Ye Chen said to Tawana: "For these two days, you should rest well and prepare for the performance. If there is any confirmed news from Miss Gu, I will tell you."

"Okay, Mr. Ye!" Tawana nodded respectfully, watched Ye Chen get into the car, and then boarded the other vehicle herself.

In the car, Chen Zekai asked somewhat surprised: "Young Master, why did you come to Yanjing together with this Tawana?"

Ye Chen smiled and said: "I am currently her feng shui consultant. She happens to be holding a concert in Yanjing, so I took this opportunity to come over and take a look."

Chen Zekai nodded and said: "The old master is waiting for you at home."

"Good." Ye Chen nodded: "Let's go see Grandfather first."

Ye Chen and the Ye family patriarch had not been apart for long; recently, during the launch event of Changying Automobile, the patriarch had gone to Jin Ling.

However, for Ye Chen, since he had already resolved his past misunderstandings with the patriarch, the first thing upon returning to Yanjing must be to visit him at home.

Just as Ye Chen was returning to the Ye residence by car, Tawana and her team members met up, and a group of people headed to the Yanijing Baiyanghan Palace Hotel where they were staying.

When Ye Chen arrived at the Ye family ancestral home, the patriarch had already been waiting for a long time.

Upon seeing Ye Chen, he stepped forward quickly, smiling and saying: "Chen'er, how did you suddenly decide to come back and just come back?"

Ye Chen called out "Grandfather" and explained the general situation to him.

The patriarch then suddenly understood and sighed: "Chen'er, you are always like this, using various excuses to explain things to Miss Xiao is not appropriate. Have you never thought of finding a suitable opportunity to tell her the full story?"

Ye Chen shook his head: "For now, I haven't even considered it. Churan's temperament is unlike that of ordinary girls—gentle on the outside, strong within. She does not despise my poverty, nor does she despise my lack of ability, but she fears being deceived the most. If I told her these circumstances, she would not forgive me."

Ye Zhongquan smiled and said: "This is merely your one-sided wish. Feelings are more important than anything else. She values you as a person, not whether you are poor or rich. Grandfather merely feels that as we grow older, watching you return to normal family life as soon as possible, speaking openly and honestly with Miss Xiao, clearing up any misunderstandings between you two, and then having two more children."

Ye Chen sighed: "Grandfather, what I am considering is not just a sudden change in personality so simple, but also the hidden dangers behind the entire matter."

Ye Zhongquan took his hand and had him sit in the living room, asking with concern: "Are you still worried about the Purity Breaking Society?"

"Not just the Purity Breaking Society." Ye Chen said.

Ye Zhongquan said: "If you are willing, you can tell me in detail, and we two old men can have a good talk."

"Ah!" Ye Chen sighed: "Let's not talk about the Purity Breaking Society for now. My father-in-law and mother-in-law's character and nature—Grandfather, you should have heard something about them."

Ye Zhongquan nodded and sighed: "Indeed, I have long heard of it! Especially your mother-in-law—she is truly a dragon among men, a phoenix among women. Your little aunt has been spoiled and pampered for so many years, suffering losses only at the hands of two people: one is you, and the other is your mother-in-law."

Ye Chen said with a worried expression: "Not telling Churan the truth is also closely related to those two. Churan is an extremely filial girl. If I tell her the truth, she will likely also tell her parents."

"And my father-in-law and mother-in-law are not easy to deal with. If they learn how powerful my background is, they might just wag their tails up to the sky. If by then the matter becomes widely known, it would instead ruin my great undertaking."

"That makes sense." Ye Zhongquan pondered for a moment, then nodded seriously.

Ma Lan and Xiao Changkun are both complete unstable factors, and when these two people go berserk, they care about nothing, especially Ma Lan.

Thinking of this, Ye Zhongquan also felt somewhat sorrowful, sighing: "Chen'er, the Ye family, up to your father's generation, had only your father as a pillar of talent. In your generation, there is only you. In the next generation, I believe, only you can produce offspring as excellent as you and your father. Therefore, you cannot always neglect the matter of having children."

"Regardless of whether you need to confess to Miss Xiao in the short term, you must put having children first."

Ye Chen nodded: "Grandfather's words make sense. I will carefully consider this matter, but I still feel that now is too early to talk about having children. Wu Feiyan's side still has an unresolved grudge. If I have a child now, and one day I cannot match Wu Feiyan and die unexpectedly like my father, what would become of my son? Should I also hide my son, let him grow up, and then have him take revenge for me?"

Ye Zhongquan remained silent for a long time, his eye sockets already somewhat moist.

After hesitating for a long time, he finally said: "A few days ago, I met with Yan Zhong."

Ye Chen knew that the Yan Zhong referred to by his grandfather was Gu Qiuyi's father, Gu Yanzhong, Uncle Yan.

So he asked: "What did you and Uncle Yan talk about?"

Ye Zhongquan sighed: "Yan Zhong said that Gu Nannan wants to retire from the entertainment industry. She plans to, after retirement, do nothing and wholeheartedly stay by her parents' side..."

Saying this, he paused for a moment, his pair of old eyes fixed on Ye Chen, and said solemnly: "Wait for you."

Put together, it means: always staying by her parents' side, waiting for you.

"Wait for me?"

Ye Chen suddenly recalled Gu Yanzhong's three-year agreement.

He said to wait three years for me to handle the marriage matter, and after three years, let me marry Gu Qiuyi into the family.

At that time, I gave no clear response.

After all, that was the marriage arranged by my parents, and Gu Yanzhong was my father's best brother.

How could I directly refuse him to his face?

But days pass one by one.

Three years have passed, and saying it went quickly, it really did go quickly.

Seeing Ye Chen silent, Ye Zhongquan continued: "Yan Zhong is also very worried about your next generation. He is your father's good brother, his heart is tied to this bloodline of you father and son..."

Ye Chen always felt there was more in his grandfather's words, so he said: "Grandfather, just say what you want to say directly. No need to beat around the bush. Here, it's only us grandfather and grandson, and no outsiders."

Ye Zhongquan nodded and said word by word: "Yan Zhong's meaning is that you may temporarily not marry Gu Nannan into the family, but he hopes that Gu Nannan can first have your flesh and blood, and carry on your family line for you!"

"How could that be acceptable!" Ye Chen, in desperation, stood up and firmly refused: "I cannot give Gu Nannan a proper status, nor can I openly bring the child by my side. This is utterly inappropriate no matter how you look at it!"

"You fool!" Ye Zhongquan rarely showed anger in front of Ye Chen, sternly saying: "The Gu family is a prominent clan with reputation. Gu Nannan herself is the sole daughter of the Gu family, and moreover, she is the most famous singer among the Chinese people. To say she is a princess gazed upon by millions is not an exaggeration! Such a proud young lady—your Uncle Yan is willing to let her bear a child out of wedlock and secretly give birth and raise offspring for you, yet you still have the nerve to make excuses and obstruct? Where would you put your Uncle Yan's face?!"

Saying this, Ye Zhongquan added: "Let me tell you! This is not just your Uncle Yan's personal opinion—it is the highly unified opinion of your Uncle Yan's entire family of three!"
