My ex-husband got engaged, I was reborn, and the young master of Beijing's elite circle went cr

Cheng Yan entered the main hall, where an elderly man over fifty years old was sitting on the sofa. When he saw Cheng Yan enter, a look of joy appeared on the old man's face.

Cheng Yan sat down opposite him.

"dad……"

He spoke, calling out "Dad" in a very stiff voice.

This old man was Cheng Yan's father, Cheng Gang. The old man held a high position and was very knowledgeable. He had a kind of aloofness similar to Cheng Yan.

However, when he saw Cheng Yan, he still revealed a kind of warmth that only a father would show.

He nodded and said, "You made me wait for almost an hour..."

Cheng Gang's tone seemed to carry a hint of reproach, but Cheng Yan didn't care.

He retorted, "You don't have to wait..."

Faced with Cheng Yan's retort, Cheng Gang was helpless. In public, he was a high-ranking leader, and no one dared to say no to him, let alone speak to him in such a tone.

But at home, he is just a father, a father just like any other in an ordinary family. Trying to put on airs in front of his son is futile.

Seeing Cheng Yan's cold demeanor, Cheng Gang couldn't help but sigh.

He said, "Ayan, I'm your father, and you're my son. Do we have to talk to each other like this?"

Cheng Yan didn't respond to Cheng Gang's words. Instead, he changed the subject: "I'm short on time. You'd better get to the point."

Cheng Gang was helpless. He looked at his son, who looked exactly like him, and had no way to do anything about it.

"Ayan, what have you thought about the matter I sent someone over to discuss with you a couple of days ago? Nanluo City is too small and not suitable for your development."

Cheng Gang tried to persuade him earnestly, but he couldn't understand why Cheng Yan, who could have made a name for himself in the capital, insisted on staying in the small city of Nanluo.

Upon hearing Cheng Gang's words, Cheng Yan stood up.

He said, "If you've come because of this matter, then I'll be leaving now."

"Can't you stop being so stubborn?" Cheng Gang said angrily.

Cheng Yan turned to look at Cheng Gang and asked, "Dad, the reason I stay in Nanluo City is because Nanluo City has my mother's presence... Only when I stay here do I feel that I am closest to my mother."

Cheng Yan's words caused Cheng Gang to stagger. He never imagined that some things in the past would cause Cheng Yan such great harm.

“Ayan… that matter happened many years ago, and everyone has let it go. Why can’t you let it go?” Cheng Gang’s tone weakened.

Cheng Yan sneered and replied, "I can't let go because she's my mother. You've all let go, which means she's not that important to you."

Cheng Yan's tone was full of sarcasm.

Cheng Gang sighed deeply. He knew that there was no point in continuing to argue with Cheng Yan about this issue.

He changed the subject: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I heard from your aunt that you've been getting quite close to the Jian family's girl lately?"

Cheng Yan didn't intend to hide it from him.

He said, "Yes, we are dating... When my mother was alive, she said she wanted her to be my wife."

Cheng Gang chuckled: "You little rascal, you're quite sentimental. What your mother said back then was just a joke. You were only a few years old then, yet you took it seriously."

"I heard from your aunt that this girl from the Jian family is a divorcee? And she has a child with her?"

Cheng Yan's expression turned somewhat unpleasant. He never expected that Luo Ye would be so tactless as to publicize Jian He's divorce to the whole world.

His silence was taken as tacit agreement; there was no need to hide it anyway.

“If she hadn’t been divorced and didn’t have children, it wouldn’t be impossible for her to be with you. But in the current situation, it doesn’t seem appropriate for her to come into our home.”

“Ayan, you should think twice before you act... Marriage is a serious matter and should not be taken lightly.”

Cheng Yan was unmoved by Cheng Gang's persuasion. He said coldly, "Dad, I didn't interfere with your marriage. My marriage is none of your concern. You have enough to do with other important matters. As for my own affairs, I will handle them."

Cheng Yan decisively stood up, preparing to leave.

At this moment, Cheng Gang said to him, "Ayan, I am your father, and there are some things I can decide."

"If you insist on being with that girl from the Jian family, I have plenty of ways to deal with you."

The weight of Cheng Gang's words made Cheng Yan hesitate.

"What do you want?"

Seeing that Cheng Yan had softened, Cheng Gang then softened his tone and said, "Some things are not impossible to talk about... How about we, father and son, both take a step back and make a deal?"

Cheng Yan sat down again.

The father and son sat in the hall and talked for a long time until dawn before Cheng Yan left the small building.

The next day, Jian He and Rui Bao got up very early and rushed to the sanatorium to pick up Jian Qingshan from the hospital.

After this period of recovery, Jian Qingshan's condition has improved a lot. Although he still has some aftereffects from the cerebral infarction, his overall recovery is going well.

"Grandpa..."

Upon seeing Jian Qingshan, Ruibao ran to his side. He knew exactly how to make Jian Qingshan happy, so he took Jian Qingshan's hand and greeted him warmly.

Jian Qingshan continued to speak with his mouth agape.

"Yunbao... Well done, Grandpa's good boy..."

Hearing Jian Qingshan's words, Ruibao laughed heartily. He pointed at Jian Qingshan and said, "Grandpa, you're wrong. My name isn't Yunbao, it's Ruibao... And also, it's not 'good Xunzi,' it's 'good grandson'..."

"Here, let me help you correct it!"

Ruibao was helping his grandfather correct his pronunciation, while Jianhe was communicating with Jian Qingshan's attending physician about Jian Qingshan's recovery progress.

"Doctor, is it possible for my father to fully recover from this illness?"

The doctor shook his head and said, "Ms. Jian, the prognosis for some stroke patients is very poor. Ms. Jian was only brought in in time, which is why she has some sequelae in her legs and speech..."

"For a full recovery, the level of medical care in Nanluo City is probably not enough. I suggest that if you have connections, you can take Mr. Jian to a big city to take a look. Who knows, there might be a possibility of recovery."

Jian He nodded and said, "Okay, thank you, doctor."

After saying goodbye to the doctor, Jian He called to Mason and the family's bodyguards, preparing to take Jian Qingshan and Ruibao home.

Just as they were pushing Jian Qingshan out of the VIP ward, Yin Muqiao suddenly appeared out of nowhere and ran towards Jian Qingshan.

As he walked, he said, "Dad, I've come to pick you up from the hospital..."
