Chapter 559: You Can’t Put a Price on Foresight!
Ji Weitian heard his words and glanced at the siblings eating together, a picture of harmony.
Ruirui exuded the air of an older brother, always giving way to his little sister.
Although Yaoyao was a little smarty-pants and managed the household like a pro, in front of her brother, she wasn’t strong-willed at all but rather a Little Glutinous Rice Dumpling, liking to cling to her brother and have him take care of her.
Such a mode of interaction was something Ji Weitian had never imagined before.
If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn’t have believed that merely a blood relation could bring about such a significant change in the children.
If they could have grown up with their biological parents...
Ji Weitian thought of something, put down her chopsticks, and picked up the cup of water by her hand to drink.
Her gaze fixed on Qin Nanyu.
"Weren’t you the one who told me that you only wanted the son, not the son’s biological mother?"
Qin Nanyu: "..."
At that time, he didn’t know she was the son’s biological mother.
A perfect mess he had made.
If time could be turned back, he swore he would never utter those words, even if it killed him!
After much pondering, Qin Nanyu carefully explained, "I’ve thought it over carefully, and sometimes people shouldn’t be too hasty—I was too young and didn’t consider everything fully."
"Didn’t you once advise me not to force myself to be with a man I don’t like for the sake of the child," you said that a child grown up in such a family wouldn’t be happy either. Have you forgotten?"
Ji Weitian spoke slowly, repeating word for word what he had said in the past.
"You also said that if Yaoyao’s father was a responsible man, he wouldn’t have failed to find me four years ago, wouldn’t have ignored me while I was pregnant with his daughter, and now suddenly turn back wanting to be responsible for us—those words are not credible. Right, you even told me this was nothing but despicable behavior, not even worth considering, and I definitely shouldn’t pick a father for Yaoyao from a pile of trash. After thinking it over, I found your words quite reasonable."
Qin Nanyu: "..."!!
Could he go back in time and slap himself twice?
The grave he had dug with his own hands, he now had no choice but to lie in.
Regret is of no avail when one faces the consequences of their own actions, and no wealth could redeem his blunders.
At this moment, he suddenly couldn’t think of a way to play dead; nobody comfort him, he wanted to be alone.
He had thought about telling Ji Weitian outright that he knew he was the biological father of both children, but recalling the tone Professor Fan had used when talking about the past...
How certain he was that Yaoyao’s biological father posed no threat then was as jittery as he was now.
His intuition told him that saying it outright would not only fail to give him a chance but might prompt Ji Weitian to sprinkle a handful of earth on his grave herself, packing it tight to ensure he could never climb out!
He needed to find a way to change her impression of him first.
For example—
"I’ve already called the TV station today, and in the next show, they will help us clarify. Rest assured, the reporters will stop spreading rumors about our relationship, and your foster parents will soon be able to return to their normal lives."
"On the laboratory side, I’ve communicated with Jiangcheng University, and you will still be in charge of the archive room, but you can now come and go in the lab freely, including using all the lab’s equipment."
"The Ji Family heard that we are now together, your stepmother had someone contact me, trying to persuade me to invest in the Ji Family’s industries. I haven’t responded yet, but I’ll handle it however you wish. Does that sound good?"
