There was only one month left before Ye Li’s wedding, and Gao Shen appeared at Ye Kai’s house one day.

As the big day approaches, there are more and more things to discuss, and it is inevitable to be busy. What's more, Gao Shen belongs to a profession with complicated relationships, and he has excellent work ability and high efficiency, so his boss is very optimistic about his future.

At Gao Shen's request, Ye Li had resigned at the end of the year. Although she had some free time now, she was busy inviting friends and former colleagues, and finally had a chance to breathe.

Although Gao Shen had gained the deep trust of Ye Xiu, who was about to become his father-in-law, he still could not fully grasp Ye Kai's thoughts.

The young man who was about to become his brother-in-law was completely different from Ye Li, sometimes making testing remarks or looking at him with penetrating eyes. Despite this, he attributed this discomfort to a slight displeasure with a young man who valued integrity and cared about his family.

However, during the conversation, the boy's words forced Gao Shen to put aside his discomfort.

"Brother-in-law, I have a request."

"What's wrong? Is there anything you want? Let your brother-in-law take care of it."

Ye Kai never overly relied on Gao Shen, who was older than him, let alone made willful demands.

"I have enough financial resources, so unless it's an emergency, I'm willing to listen."

“I want a commitment.”

"Promise? What's wrong with that..."

Ye Kai sat up straight, bowed his head deeply and said: "If... I disappear again, can you take care of my parents?"

"What!"

These words shocked everyone present. Zhong Yu lowered his head in silence. Ye Li was speechless, tears welling up in his eyes. Only Ye Xiu remained calm.

“What are you talking about! Do you know what you are talking about!?”

“This is my sincere request.”

"This is even worse! Do you know how much you made your family suffer in those six months?"

"..."

He could fully understand, but Ye Kai was speechless.

"At least I should explain it to my family." The momentary excitement had passed, but Gao Shen still couldn't accept it.

"I've thought about it carefully. I wouldn't have thought this way originally. But you are not only my sister, but also my parents. You give me the feeling that you are someone I can trust, so I am moved."

“Don’t put the blame on me!”

“I’m sorry, that’s not what I meant.”

Ye Kai adjusted his breathing and then began to speak.

"Life here... is difficult for me. If I follow the law, I will have to live in self-denial. But I can't turn a blind eye. My sense of justice cannot be compromised. That incident... profoundly proved this. I may be able to endure for a while, but in the end it will cause a major incident and cause trouble for my family. I can't forgive myself for being like this. It would be better if I destroyed myself and was not with my family."

This was a monologue that was like vomiting blood. Gao Shen could not understand that kind of emotion. But he could understand the pain that Ye Kai went through to reach this conclusion.

“Is there no other way? I know you are very smart. So…”

Such a conclusion made Gao Shen feel very uncomfortable.

Ye Xiu, who had been silent for a long time, spoke up: "Are you leaving?"

“I want to go, but I’m actually not sure I can leave. It’s not that I don’t want to, but I feel like there’s still a lot I can do. And there are people willing to create a home for me.”

"Were we not able to be your home?"

"No, it's not. It's all because I can't fit in. I found a place where I belong. It's all my fault. So please keep my willfulness in mind."

"I understand. Live your life as you wish." No one objected to the parents' declaration, but Ye Kai had to hug Ye Li, who couldn't stop crying.
