The men of the Yi family should never fall in love with a woman.
"You..." Master Yi's face was contorted with anger. This was obviously bad for a man who had just been rescued from death only two days before.
However, Yi Jinli did not want to appease the old man. Instead, he said lightly, "Grandfather, since I’ve already said so to your face today, then it means that I can definitely protect her. The doctor has already said, if you take care of your body well, you might get to live for a few more years."
Master Yi seemed to laugh in anger. "Alright, it’s no wonder you're my grandson. It seems that you really have feelings for that woman. Have you forgotten your father's example? Are you going to follow in your father's footsteps?"
"Even if I do love a woman, I won’t let that woman run my life," he replied.
"Your father said the same thing at the beginning, but look at what happened! He lost his life for a woman!" Master Yi said mockingly.
"I'm not him!" Yi Jinli said coldly. He slowly got up and walked in front of the old man. He then leaned down. Those deep black eyes looked straight at Master Yi. "Grandfather, I'm not my father. Don't you confuse us two!"
Two pairs of eyes met each other. The air was once again filled with tension. There was even a faint sense of something impending.
Eventually, Master Yi's voice broke the silence. "Does that mean you're going to marry her too?"
"Why not?" Yi Jinli said. He would eventually marry a woman into the Yi family. Before this, he had no opinion about who he would marry. It was just a matter of finding a mother for the future successor of the Yi family.
Now, he felt that if he wanted to be with a woman for the rest of his life, Ling Yiran would be a good choice. At least he would not feel bored looking at her, and he even enjoyed being with her.
He would have the urge to want her as well as hide her and lock her up so that no one else could see her smile and gentleness.
"If she finds out that the accident was just a power struggle that you played a part in and that she was only a poor victim, do you think she will still have the so-called willingness to be with you?" Master Yi asked with a stern voice.
The smile on Yi Jinli's face disappeared gradually. His handsome face was filled with cold seriousness.
"I never thought that Grandfather would manage to find out all these."
"You didn't care about it before, so you didn't think of hiding anything," Master Yi said.
"Yeah, it’s my fault for being careless." Yi Jinli seemed to admit his mistakes humbly.
