Ye Cheng slowly sipped from the glass of wine in his hand. A gentle smile could be seen on his face as he looked at Yin Jia. From time to time, he would sigh as he listened to Yin Jia’s story.

On the other hand, tears welled up in Yin Jia’s eyes as she spoke. It had been many years since someone had listened to her so seriously, and it had been many years since she chatted with someone so freely.

Ye Cheng handed her a piece of tissue.

After gently wiping the tears off her face, she asked, feeling slightly embarrassed, “Do you think it’s too dramatic? My first love died in my arms just like that. I don’t even know if his death was an accident or intentional. Five years have passed, and I still haven’t found the answer.”

Ye Cheng said regretfully, “It’s too tragic. Yin Jia, I hope you can let go of the past and move on. After all, you’re still young. People can’t just live in the past.”

Yin Jia’s tears began to fall again when she heard these words. She tried her best to smile and said, “I’m only telling you this because I don’t want to hide anything from you. If you’re still willing to be with me after knowing this, then I’m willing to reconsider our relationship.”

Ye Cheng seemed slightly surprised upon hearing this. He straightened his back and asked, “Yin Jia, you’re willing to start a new life?”

Yin Jia nodded slightly and said with a smile, “I’m willing to try with you.”

A smile blossomed on Ye Cheng’s face before he said, “Great! This is great!”

Yin Jia smiled shyly as she said, “When you have the time, come home with me to meet my family.”

Ye Cheng smiled and replied, “Why don’t you see when it’s convenient for your family to meet me? I’ll make time to meet them.”

Yin Jia nodded with a sincerely happy smile on her face. “Alright.”

…

During dinner, when everyone was present, Yun Jia announced that she wanted to bring her boyfriend back to meet her parents.

Everyone was stunned.

Guan Tang, who was invited back for dinner, was the most stunned.

Guan Ning asked tentatively, “Yin Jia, when did you get a boyfriend? Why haven’t we heard anything about it at all?”

Yin Jia smiled faintly, and her tone was gentle as she said, “Mom, I’m not young anymore. I’m not like Yin Yi who has time to slowly fall in love. I think he’s a good person. Meet him and tell me what you think. If there’s no problem, I want to get married as soon as possible.”

Yin Bin said unwillingly, “Why are you in such a rush to get married? What do you mean by you’re not young anymore? It’s not like our Yin family can’t afford to raise you. You’re my daughter. Even if you remain unmarried until you’re 80, you’ll still be the princess of our family.”

Although Yin Jia’s expression was one of gratitude, her eyes were cold. She softened her voice and said, “Dad, why are you so anxious? It’s not like I’m getting married tomorrow. I’ll wait for Cheng Che’s return before I get married. I have to see him return to your side before I can get married without any worries. Our family can only have one lucky star. If I’m here, how can my brother return? Once I’m married, my brother will surely return to inherit the family business. With this, our Yin family will be blessed.” Then, she paused before she said coquettishly, “If you can’t bear to part with me, then you can add to my dowry.”

Yin Bin’s expression eased when he heard the words ‘lucky star’. He said gently, “Of course, of course.” Then, he said to Guan Ning, “We can’t be sloppy with Yin Jia’s dowry.”

Guan Ning said, “Don’t worry. It was prepared long ago.”

Yin Jia’s eyes were frosty as she lowered her gaze and drank from the bowl of soup in front of her.

At this time, Guan Tang said softly, “Eldest sister has finally recovered from her emotional trauma. I’m really happy for you.”

Yin Jia’s gaze was as sharp as a knife when she looked at Guan Tang.

Guan Tang revealed an apologetic expression on her face immediately, looking as though she was about to cry.
