Ling Che smiled. "Grandpa, I remember you said that you and grandma were together because of love. My dad and mom were also together because of love. Why do you have to give up love when it comes to me?"

He picked up his coat and put it on slowly. "I won't get a divorce, and it doesn't matter to me whether the Ling family has an heir or not. Grandpa, you should stop worrying about this."

Ling Gu was so angry that his eyebrows were about to fly up, and he was furious. "Ling Che, do you think I've lived too long and want to piss me off to death?"

"That's not what I meant." Ling Che lowered his eyes and adjusted his sleeves. "I just think that Grandpa just needs to enjoy his old age. I know how to handle other things."

He raised his eyes and looked at Ling Gu, "No one can make a decision for me."

Ling Gu didn't expect Ling Che to disobey him so much for Qiao Ruyi. He raised his hand and threw the teacup on the table to the ground, smashing it to pieces.

"Your Majesty!"

Ling Che didn't move. He was not wrong, so he would not kneel.

Seeing that he was stubbornly staring at him, Ling Gu took out his cane and hit Ling Che on the back, "Will you be happy if I'm pissed you off to death? If you still recognize me as your grandfather, divorce her and send her away!"

Ling Gu didn't use much force when he hit Ling Che with the stick, but Ling Che remained calm and didn't move at all.

He opened his thin lips and said only two words, "I won't leave."

Ling Gu hit him on the back with his cane again, this time with great force.

The wound on Ling Che's shoulder split open instantly, and blood seeped out of the gauze.

"You are my only grandson. I don't care about others. I only care about my grandson!"

Ling Gu looked at his stubborn expression with a cold face, "She can't stay with you. She's like a time bomb that can be used by others at any time to take your life!"

Ling Gu knew that if this kidnapping was aimed at Ling Che, with his abilities he would be able to escape unscathed.

It was because Zhuang Ce knew that he was willing to sacrifice his life for Qiao Ruyi that he used her as bait and wanted to kill him!

He risked his life time and time again just for Qiao Ruyi.

He Linggu will not allow such a thing to happen again!

His only grandson nearly died, and his wish to have a great-grandson was dashed. He felt that Qiao Ruyi was no longer suitable to be with Ling Che.

"I said, I won't divorce her, and I won't let her go."

Ling Che's face was tense, and although he didn't frown, cold sweat had already seeped out of his forehead due to the cracked wound.

He was too stubborn. Ling Gu knew that even if he died of anger in front of him today, he would not change his mind.

Ling Gu saw that he looked unhappy, and finally couldn't hit him for the third time with the cane in his hand.

He sighed deeply, and then took a step back, "Ah Che, I'll give you three months. If she doesn't cause you any trouble and gets pregnant successfully during these three months, I, an old man, will never mention these things again."

"If not." Ling Gu looked at him, his eyes calm, "You can only choose one between Grandpa and her."

Hearing this, Ling Che smiled lightly in anger.

He didn't understand why the old man disliked Qiao Ruyi so much now and insisted on forcing him to make a choice.

I beat him and scolded him.

Ling Che didn't want to stay any longer.

He turned to look at Ling Gu, "You will always be my grandfather, and Qiao Ruyi will always be my wife, whether we have children or not, she is my wife!"

Ling Gu's face turned green with anger as he shouted, "If you don't have a child, who will inherit our Ling family's centuries-old legacy? Will it be passed on to that prodigal son of Ling Zishi?"

"Oh my! My uncle!"

Ling Xiude's voice came from the door, "I heard you scolding our Zishi before I even entered the room. How come our Zishi is a prodigal son?"

Ling Xiu De came in, followed by Ling Zi Shi.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Ling Gu's face, then he calmed down and sat down.

"Oh, Ling Che is here too?" Ling Xiu De glanced at Ling Che. He heard the conversation between the grandfather and grandson before he got close.

"What's this about divorce?" Ling Xiu De leaned forward and asked, "Uncle, do you want Ling Che to get a divorce and match him up with that Miss Xu?"

Ling Gu's unspoken thoughts were revealed by Ling Xiu De. He glared at him and said, "You have none of your business here!"

Ling Zishi followed behind Ling Xiude, timidly glanced at the cold-faced Ling Che, and muttered, "That Xu Zhaozhao is really much better than Qiao Ruyi—"

There was a "bang" sound.

Before Ling Zishi could finish his words, he was kicked out by someone.

He grimaced in pain, looked at the condescending man, and was so scared that he quickly shut up.

Ling Che glanced at Ling Zishi, then glanced at Ling Xiude, who also looked surprised. "When did you ever get to meddle in my affairs?"

Ling Xiu De was furious when his son was kicked, but when he saw Ling Che's frighteningly cold face, he was afraid that he would go crazy and kill someone, so he dared not say a word.

......

Ling Che walked out of the study with a cold look on his face. Qi Jin and Qi Shui, who were guarding the door, saw that he looked unhappy when he came out and hurried forward.

"Mr. Ling."

Ling Che's face turned pale. "Let's go back to Xishui Bay."

If she goes back like this, she will be worried.

Just as I reached the gate of the manor and before I got into the car, a white Ferrari sports car stopped next to the black Ghost, the door opened, and a pair of high heels fell to the ground.

"Ling Che."

Xu Zhaozhao got out of the car and called out to the man who was about to get in.

Noticing that he didn't look very well, Xu Zhaozhao hurried over and asked, "What's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?"

Ling Che didn't answer her question, but frowned and asked, "Why are you here?"

Xu Zhaozhao pointed to the tea gift box on the sports car and said, "My dad sent some tea from abroad and asked me to give it to Grandpa Ling."

Ling Che stared at her, "Did you tell him about Grandpa?"

"What is it?" Xu Zhaozhao was puzzled. Seeing his inquiring eyes with a frown on his face, she suddenly asked, "Are you talking about you and Ruyi getting injured? Do you think I told Grandpa Ling about it?"

"Not you?"

"Ling Che, am I such a person in your heart?" Xu Zhaozhao chuckled. "I admit that I accidentally let something slip in the hospital that day. I didn't know you were hiding it from Ruyi, but I haven't said a word to Grandpa Ling. If you don't believe me, let's go in and ask Grandpa Ling in person!"

As she spoke, she was about to pull Ling Che into the yard, but Ling Che moved his arm away. "It's not the best, Xu Zhaozhao. There are some things I don't want Grandpa to know. You'd better keep your mouth shut."

His words were so blunt that Xu Zhaozhao's face fell. "Ling Che, what do you mean? Is this the tone you're talking to me in now? Am I getting in your way by returning to China?"

Then she raised her hand and said, "I swear to you, Xu Zhaozhao, that if I say anything nonsense, I will go to hell!"

She spoke harshly, but Ling Che looked at her with an indifferent expression, neither saying whether he believed it nor whether he didn't.

Xu Zhaozhao took the precious tea from the car and turned into the yard.
