Chapter 699: Son's Problems

After Cui Hua rested, Ye Rufeng thought it over and went to Ye Tiandong's room to discuss the matter with him privately.

"Why didn't Xiao Cui tell her family about such a big event as her marriage? Is there something she couldn't tell them?"

Upon hearing his father's words, Ye Tiandong's eyes flickered slightly, and he said in a calm tone, "Dad, why do you keep asking this?"

"This is a major life event for you, so of course I need to find out his background and identity."

Ye Tiandong assured, "Don't worry, she's innocent, never been married, and has no romantic entanglements."

Of course, he has no right to complain about the outcome, since he is already on his second marriage.

Upon hearing Ye Tiandong's words, Ye Rufeng began to analyze further, "So, she is innocent, but you are not. Is she afraid that if she tells her family that she has found a divorced man, her family will not agree to your marriage, so she plans to act first and tell them later?"

Ye Tiandong, "!!!"

You can't belittle your own son like that!

Is remarriage a crime?

Can't you find a partner after getting married again?

What's wrong with him?

Given his current net worth and his charisma and looks, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a highly eligible bachelor.

"Dad, can you please stop being so ridiculous? What did I do wrong?"

Ye Rufeng also realized he had been a bit too harsh on his son. He coughed lightly and continued to ask.

"If that's not the reason, then what is it? Where are her parents? Are they from a single-parent family or an orphan, or is there some other reason why she doesn't want to meet her parents?"

“His parents are still alive, and he has older and younger brothers.” Ye Tiandong looked at Ye Rufeng and said in a very serious tone, “To tell you the truth, she is too independent and has been working outside all these years. She did not listen to her parents’ arrangements to go back and get married, and she broke off with her parents a long time ago.”

“I’ve talked to her about this before, but she’s adamant about notifying her family because they favor boys over girls. In any case, let’s respect her decision.”

Upon hearing Ye Tiandong's words, Ye Rufeng understood.

He deeply admired Cui Hua's courage.

Many girls born in rural areas have no choice in what they do when they grow up; they are arranged to marry someone when they reach marriageable age.

Cui Hua was able to rebel against her parents, escape from her family of origin, work hard, and build her own career.

She is a role model for independent women in the new era.

"This child has had a tough time."

Ye Rufeng stopped dwelling on the issue and said, "Since she doesn't want her parents to be notified, then let her keep the betrothal gifts. You can go and buy some more jewelry later. Is there anything else missing in the bridal chamber?"

Ye Tiandong smiled and said, "Dad, we have everything we need, so don't worry about it. We probably won't have a wedding. When we have time, we'll go on a trip to get married."

Ye Rufeng expressed his understanding and respect for the young people's decision, saying, "Okay, if you don't want to have a wedding, then don't. Anyway, it would be awkward enough if Xiao Cui didn't inform her family, so let's not make her feel bad."

“A destination wedding is great. I’m quite supportive of these trendy things these days, so let’s just go with the flow.”

"Would you like to go on a trip with us?" Ye Tiandong asked with a smile.

Although he was joking, he still held a sliver of hope in his heart.

He was almost forty years old, yet he had never gone out with his father to see the beautiful landscapes of their motherland.

If the old man is willing, he can bring him along when they go on a destination wedding.

The old man has been traveling around for many years, but he's not old-fashioned. He can even take photos for them.

Upon hearing Ye Tiandong's words, Ye Rufeng rolled her eyes, looking disgusted. "What would I go there for? To be a third wheel? Besides, I'm not interested in traveling. I'm always on the go all year round. Where haven't I been? Do I need to go with you guys?"

He wasn't so stupid as to be so annoying; he went on a honeymoon trip with his daughter-in-law.

"Alright, now that things are settled between you two, I feel relieved. If you're free tomorrow morning, go buy me two tickets for tomorrow afternoon. Linlin and I will take the train tomorrow afternoon and arrive the day after tomorrow morning."

"Do you have to leave in such a hurry?" Ye Tiandong asked, his voice full of reluctance.

Now that his relationship with his father has improved, Ye Tiandong cherishes the time they spend together. To be honest, he doesn't want his father to leave. He wants to fulfill his filial duty and make up for the regrets of so many years.

"Including tomorrow, it's been three days, and I have nothing to do here. My presence here also distracts you and makes it difficult for you to work properly. We are all people with careers, so let's prioritize our careers."

Ye Rufeng's words made Ye Tiandong burst into laughter.

However, it must be said that the old man was right; he does have a career.

There's no time to linger here.

He laughed and said, "Okay, I'll buy you tickets tomorrow morning. We'll come to see you when we have time."

"Forget about me, you guys get down to business."

Ye Rufeng pondered for a moment, his eyes flickered slightly, and he coughed lightly before finally speaking, "Since you're already married, then hurry up and have a child."

Ye Tiandong, "..."

He spoke softly, "Dad, I overheard you chatting with Uncle Lu today, saying you wanted to be a good elder and not pressure him to have children."

Ye Rufeng argued, "Whether or not to push for children depends on the individual. Xiaozhi is still young, and she will have plenty of time to consider having children later. You and Cuihua are not young anymore. If you plan to have children, you should do it sooner rather than later. It's not that I'm in a hurry to have grandchildren, but I'm thinking about your health."

As he spoke, he looked his son up and down and continued, "Especially at your age, with the nature of your work, you often have to socialize, and you're always smoking and drinking. Your sperm quality will get worse and worse. If you wait a few more years, even if you get pregnant, you're more likely to miscarry. You need to take this seriously."

"Of course, if you don't plan to have children in the future, then disregard what I said."

Ye Tiandong, "..."

Ye Tiandong stated, "We have no plans to be childless, but we don't even remember having children."

Hearing his son's words, Ye Rufeng breathed a sigh of relief.

I'm willing to have children.

That's good.

However, being willing to have children and being able to have children are two different things.

He suddenly remembered the young man who came to see him on the second day after the clinic opened.

Asthenospermia.

She wants to have a child but can't conceive.

Thinking of this, he looked at his son, his expression immediately filled with worry.

In his previous marriage, his wife was pregnant with another man's child.

This inevitably leads to wild speculation.

He hasn't had any contact with his son for many years, nor has he inquired about his health.

He pondered for a few seconds, then said to Ye Tiandong, "Extend your hand, I'll take your pulse."

Ye Tiandong, “???”
