"Second Uncle!?" Yi Luowa saw her second uncle about to cry and quickly ran in, "The doctor said you can’t get too emotional."
Yi Weiyang shook his head, "Second Uncle is fine."
Tong Yao walked in and had been looking at Yi Weiyang lying on the hospital bed the whole ti. Yi Weiyang also looked at her. Tong Yao sighed softly, "How are you? You’ve changed so much. If I saw you in passing, I certainly wouldn’t recognize you."
"You haven’t changed at all, still the sa as before." Yi Weiyang smiled and patted his own leg, "I’m okay. Although I lost my leg, my mindset is much calr than it used to be."
Tong Yao smiled and walked to the bedside.
Yi Luowa moved a chair over for her to sit down.
After sitting down, Tong Yao looked at Yi Weiyang and said, "You’ve truly transford into a different person. You’re not as stubborn as you used to be."
"That’s all thanks to you!" Yi Weiyang said sincerely, full of gratitude.
Tong Yao froze.
Yi Weiyang laughed and said, "You’re a busy person, so of course you wouldn’t rember. Back then, Old Three and I overturned the presidential security car. If it weren’t for you secretly helping us, we would’ve surely been jailed. We were detained for fifteen days, and yet I didn’t know how to be grateful. When I got out, I called you wanting to challenge you to a race."
Tong Yao slightly furrowed her brows. She really couldn’t recall this matter.
Yi Weiyang chuckled, "You may have forgotten, but I rembered what you said. You said: ’As a man, wasting ti idling around every day, instead of competing with , you should do sothing beneficial to society. Or go win so international racing championships to bring glory to our country.’
Unfortunately, I didn’t win a single racing trophy before losing my leg, but I still kept your words in my heart. Though I couldn’t win a trophy, the racing cars I manufacture have appeared at various competitions. I also used the money I earned to establish a foundation in Z Country to support many people who beca disabled due to car accidents."
Tong Yao smiled appreciatively, "Weiyang, you’re amazing! Even though I don’t rember saying these words, I truly thank you for keeping them in mind. Life is about more than just muddling through aimlessly. I’ve said the sa to my children as well. Our family might have money, but money is not for squandering indiscriminately. You should use it to make even more money, and in doing so, better contribute to society."
"Your children are truly outstanding. If it weren’t for them this ti, we—uncle and niece—might’ve ended up sleeping on the streets." Yi Weiyang gratefully looked at Tong Yao, "This ti, I must insist on properly thanking your children."
"This is fate! You don’t need to take it to heart." Tong Yao turned to glance at Yi Luowa standing to the side, "You’ve raised quite a wonderful child. Before I even arrived, my family was already calling , singing Luowa’s praises."
Yi Weiyang shook his head helplessly, "This child’s been spoiled by . Just yesterday, I told Airui that her sharp tongue might make you mad."
Tong Yao laughed, "I’ve got plenty of practice handling people like that. If we’re talking about the most aggravating person in the world, if Long Che claid second place, who would dare claim first?"
Yi Weiyang glanced at Yi Luowa and then smiled, "Looks like you don’t have any issues with Luowa?"
Tong Yao cheerfully pulled Yi Luowa closer, "I liked this child from the mont I laid eyes on her. When I saw her at the elevator, I even felt a little spark in my heart, thinking, ’If the girl my son ntioned is her, that’d be perfect!’"
Yi Luowa awkwardly grinned. Just as she was about to speak, Yi Weiyang interrupted, "We won’t ddle on their behalf. Let them spend so ti together first. If Airui can’t handle Luowa’s temperant, then he’ll have better options."
"Alright, we’ll do as you say! Honestly, I’m more worried that Luowa won’t be able to handle Airui. That kid is so much like his father." Tong Yao gently patted Luowa’s small hand, "Has he been bullying you lately?"
Yi Luowa pouted, "He bullies every single day!"
Tong Yao chuckled lovingly, "Auntie will take care of him for you later!"
"Don’t believe Luowa’s nonsense. Airui treats her well." Yi Weiyang glared at Yi Luowa in displeasure, "Tong Yao, I do have sothing else I need to tell you."
"Hmm? Go ahead," Tong Yao nodded with a smile.
Yi Weiyang sighed softly, "Luowa is not part of the Yi family."
Tong Yao nodded, "I’ve heard about that. If Luowa is truly Xi ichen’s daughter, then no matter how much Rui’er likes her, he won’t be able to get past his father’s approval."
"Are you saying that Long Che has already agreed to their relationship?" Long Che was the one Yi Weiyang worried about the most!
Tong Yao laughed, "He didn’t expressly say anything, but his silence is tacit approval. If he truly objected, he would’ve made a fuss right from the start."
Yi Weiyang sighed deeply, "Luowa is certainly not my brother’s or that woman’s child—this is confird. What remains is still a troubleso matter. I’ve searched for years and still haven’t found Luowa’s biological parents. She’s a child with a mysterious lineage. Could the Aldrich family accept her?"
"I didn’t know who my biological parents were back then either, and yet I still entered their family ho all the sa. Rui’er told that you and Luowa both have concerns. Today, let lay it all out for you—our family doesn’t care about social rank. As long as the two of them get along, everything’s settled."
After hearing Tong Yao’s words, Yi Weiyang let out a long breath of relief.
Yi Luowa pursed her lips. Her mood seed lighter than before.
Seeing the expressions of the uncle and niece pair, Tong Yao felt more confident, "Weiyang, if there’s anything you need help with, just let Rui’er know. He says he’ll co to the hospital to keep you company whenever he’s not busy these next few days."
Yi Weiyang looked at Tong Yao with imnse guilt, "Tong Yao, Airui..."
"It’s fine. Just treat Airui as if he’s your own child," Tong Yao said with a smile.
Tong Yao’s sudden diversion made Yi Weiyang swallow the words he was about to say. He had originally intended to tell her that Luowa injured Airui and to ask for her forgiveness.
"Weiyang, I want to have lunch with Luowa. What do you think?" Tong Yao asked with a cheerful smile.
Yi Luowa blinked. Wasn’t Airui’s mom just like him—never bothering to ask for her opinion?
