Chapter 511 - 521 The Old Master’s Request
Li Yifei knew that the Old Master would ask such a question, and he didn’t conceal anything as he spoke, "Grandfather, to be frank, when Yingying and I got married, I never intended to divorce her, and I even have a child outside, whom we have now brought back."
The Old Master’s face darkened as he asked, "So you mean to say, you cannot marry our Ye Family’s Yunzhu?"
Li Yifei sighed, not because the Old Master was getting angry, but because he felt guilty towards Ye Yunzhu, saying, "Yunzhu was my first love, and I remained unmarried all these years precisely because of her. But after meeting again, some accidents happened, preventing us from being together. Since I am already married to Yingying, I cannot neglect my responsibilities towards her."
"Yunzhu is even carrying your child, and you don’t want to take responsibility for her?" The Old Master set down his teacup and stared at Li Yifei with a sharp glint in his eyes, as if ready to explode if he didn’t get a satisfactory answer.
Li Yifei shook his head and responded, "It’s not that I don’t want to take responsibility for Yunzhu, but I am now caught between a rock and a hard place. To leave Yingying would hurt her, yet not to marry Yunzhu would hurt her as well."
"A real man makes decisive decisions, not dilly-dallying like this."
A smile appeared on Li Yifei’s face as he said, "Grandfather, if matters of the heart could also be handled so clearly, the world would be much quieter."
"What exactly do you mean, then?"
"Grandfather, can you give me some time on this matter? I’ll handle it slowly. Besides, this is a matter for us young people. Why should you trouble yourself with it?"
"You brat, are you saying I’m too old now?"
