Rebirth: CEO's Sweetheart Reaches the Life Pinnacle! Chapter 470 - 387: This Is Not Necessarily True

After more than a year of grinding efforts, he gradually learned to handle the farm work properly. The hands that once held a paintbrush were now layered with thick calluses from the farm tools.

He had felt despair, confusion, and had completely given up hope for a brighter future.

Until Su Ye walked into his line of sight, into his heart.

But just as he was about to return to the city, and perhaps soon reclaim his once privileged life, Su Ye ca to break up with him. How could he possibly accept that?

Su Ye left resolutely, utterly unmoved by his heartfelt pleas to stay.

Later, after returning to the city, he heard the news that she had married Jin Jiachao. At that mont, he was utterly devastated. Saying "it was fate" was nothing but an excuse. If she hadn’t fallen in love with soone else, how could she marry another man so quickly?

Today, when he looked into that child’s eyes, he noticed a slight resemblance to Su Ye. This couldn’t be wrong—her mother was undoubtedly Su Ye.

Mr. Leng Sr. saw his expression filled with grief and nostalgia, and sighed, "Qiankai, you’re getting on in years now. It’s ti to let go and be more open-minded. I think Xiao Ning and that child are a good match, and her happiness in the later half of her life is what’s most important. Don’t let the grudges of our generation affect the younger ones!"

"Dad! Please don’t say anything for now! I—I need to think this over..." He didn’t want his daughter to be unhappy, but the knot in his heart was truly hard to untangle.

...

As Jin Yichen stepped into the house, even before taking off his shoes, Jin Jiachao hurriedly asked, "How did it go?"

"Old man! Don’t tell you stayed ho all day just waiting for to return?" Jin Yichen flopped onto the couch casually, pretending everything was fine, as he tilted his head to look at his father following behind him.

He really didn’t want to disappoint the old man, but it was possible that being with Leng Ning might not go smoothly—especially with the sudden obstacle: Leng Ning’s father!

"I didn’t go out! Hey! Hurry up and tell , what impression did the future in-laws have of you?"

Jin Yichen drumd his fingers on the couch’s armrest and nonchalantly nodded. "It went fine! I t her family—grandpa, dad, mom, brother, and sister-in-law. Oh, and little Buding too! Absolutely adorable!"

Jin Jiachao glared at him unhappily. "Stop skirting around! Spill it—what happened? You’re not being honest with , are you?"

The expression on Jin Yichen’s face gave him away; his father could imdiately tell he was hiding sothing. How could he not know his own son?

"You claim you want the truth, but you don’t believe even when I tell you! It was just one eting—what could possibly co of it?" Just then, Jin Yichen’s phone buzzed with a ssage. Casually, he opened it; it was from Leng Ning, asking if he had reached ho.

Jin Yichen quickly typed out a response.

"What do you an, ’what could possibly co of it’? If they approved of you, would you be acting like this? You think I can’t see through you? My eyesight isn’t failing just yet!" Jin Jiachao sighed deeply as he finished speaking. Other families might lant, "a daughter too hard to marry off," but he had a son who was "too difficult to marry off."

"Old man! What’s with all the sighing? Don’t worry; I can handle rejection! Besides, her family was nice to , except for her dad—he seems to have just a tiny bit of hostility toward ." Jin Yichen set his phone aside and leaned in closer to his father, revealing the truth.

Jin Jiachao laughed instead when he heard this. "If it’s just that, then no big deal! What father welcos the guy trying to take his daughter away with open arms? That small bit of resentnt is totally understandable!

Back when I first showed up at your mother’s house, your grandfather nearly chased out. And your uncle—oh, he was a tough kid back then, super strong. But didn’t we end up getting along great later?"

Despite the small hiccups, he had faith in his son’s ability to win over the family.

Jin Yichen had a feeling that Leng Ning’s father’s attitude toward him had more to do with so past grudge he wasn’t aware of.

So, taking advantage of his father’s good mood, he casually inquired if his father had any old friends or classmates with the surna Leng.

Jin Jiachao’s expression subtly stiffened, though his tone remained neutral. "Why are you asking this out of the blue?"

"Because my girlfriend’s family na is Leng, so I thought I’d ask!" Jin Yichen explained, studying his father’s reaction carefully.

Jin Jiachao felt a jolt in his heart. He’d been so carried away with excitent over his son having a girlfriend that he hadn’t even thought to ask for the family’s na. Now that his son was asking so pointedly, this wasn’t just a casual question!

How could he possibly forget that person with the surna Leng?

"What are her parents’ nas?"

"Xiao Ning said her father’s na is Leng Qiankai, and her mother’s na is Ouyang Yan!"

Jin Jiachao’s face changed uncontrollably. Why did it have to be his daughter?

There was no need to guess further; Jin Yichen already understood. There was undoubtedly an unpleasant history between the two families.

...

Li Si and Leng Mochen returned ho. Sister Ding took Buding away, and when Li Si saw Leng Mochen start working on his laptop, she sat down beside him to voice her thoughts.

"Honey! Why do you think Xiao Ning’s father is so hostile toward Yichen?" Li Si couldn’t quite make sense of it.

If it was just out of love for his daughter, he seed to have taken his ti showing it.

Back when it was Lei Ming, he didn’t object, not even when faced with soone as difficult as Mrs. Lei!

Without looking up, Leng Mochen sneered, "Yichen? You say it so affectionately! What does his father’s opinion have to do with you?"

He instinctively felt that Leng Ning’s boyfriend was a bit of an eyesore. Leng Qiankai’s stern stance was spot-on; they should make him sweat a little. Why should this be so easily resolved?

Still, he could tell there was more to this than ets the eye, though he wasn’t deeply concerned.

Li Si finally realized why he had been snide the entire way ho! She found it both funny and exasperating—how could he be jealous over this?

"What are you even saying? He’s Xiao Ning’s boyfriend—what, is it wrong for to call him Yichen? It’s not like I can call him brother-in-law yet!"

When it ca to throwing barbs, she wasn’t one to back down either!

Leng Mochen’s fingers froze for a mont above the keyboard. He looked up at her. "Brother-in-law? That’s not a given!"

With Leng Qiankai’s firm opposition, it wouldn’t be easy to turn the situation around so quickly.

Li Si also thought of Leng Qiankai’s resistance. She truly felt for Xiao Ning. Lei Ming aside, now that she had finally found soone she genuinely loved, and who loved her in return, her father’s strong opposition at their very first eting was disheartening.

Anyone would feel betrayed, sad, and uncertain in such a situation.

Li Si thought about the pair’s undeniable compatibility and smiled confidently. "They’ll definitely end up together!"

Leng Mochen suddenly beca interested. "Oh? So confident? I think they won’t make it! Why don’t we bet on it?"

For Xiao Ning’s sake, Li Si decided to take the bet. "Alright! But what’s the wager?"

"As for the stakes, let think..." A knowing smile flickered in his eyes.

"How long will that take?"

"Not long..." Leng Mochen closed his laptop and pulled Li Si onto his lap. "Never mind them for now. Let’s talk about us. I’m going on a business trip tomorrow—will you be okay at ho with Buding?"
