Chapter 345: Chapter 345 I Said She Was Ugly
“You seem to have forgotten that I’m already a married man,” He Jingyao looked at him deeply, “Do you think Miss Ye would want to be my mistress?”
“Shut up!” He Yirong was in a bad mood, “The precious daughter of the Ye Family, you want her to become your mistress?”
“Oh… what a pity,” He Jingyao’s tone showed no sign of regret, “I thought I might have the chance to enjoy the fortune of two wives.”
He Yirong glared at him, “You know exactly what I mean!”
“Oh?” He Jingyao made a gesture of all ears, “Do tell?”
“Just marry her!” He Yirong said with a dark face.
“But I’m already married,” He Jingyao looked at him sincerely, “Father, polygamy is illegal.”
“Then divorce your current one!” He Yirong started to get angry, “Although I know it’s not easy for you to have a woman by your side, you can’t just marry someone casually!”
He, being far away on the European Continent, actually found out about his son’s marriage through the news, which made him so angry that it triggered his heart disease.
“Divorce?” He Jingyao slightly furrowed his brows, seemingly troubled, “That doesn’t seem right either. Miss Ye, being the honorable daughter of a grand household, marrying a twice-married man like me would be too unfair to her.”
His tone sounded exceedingly humble.
Covering his chest, he picked up his cup and drained the tea in one gulp to ease his breathing.
He had long known this son of his had a mind of his own and probably wouldn’t be happy following his arrangements.
But He Yirong could never have imagined that to reject Ye Shutong, this kid would not go easy on himself either.
With that thought, he said in a heavy voice, “She won’t mind.”
“Did she say that herself?” He Jingyao raised his eyebrows.
He Yirong’s face grew even darker, “I’m certain she won’t mind! You are my son, even if it’s your third, fourth, or fifth marriage, no woman would mind!”
He Jingyao laughed, “But I do.”
“What do you mind?” He Yirong sneered, “If you marry into the Ye Family, join forces, do you know how much benefit it could bring to the company? Not to mention the Ye Family has a say in the political realm as well.”
“Then why don’t you marry Miss Ye? I think she gets along quite well with you,” He Jingyao seriously suggested.
He Yirong couldn’t help but roar, “I have a wife!”
“Unfortunately, so do I,” He Jingyao said with a calm smile, standing up to refill He Yirong’s cup with tea.
He Yirong took the cup and downed it in one go, his face dark, “You better not give me nonsense!”
“I’m seriously rejecting you,” He Jingyao lifted an eyebrow, “Father, it’s getting late. You should head back to see mother and sister soon, they miss you a lot.”
“I haven’t finished talking!” He Yirong continued to glower at him, “Jingyao, I know you’re being rebellious right now, so I won’t force you. But Shutong, I value her not just because her last name is Ye! After you get to know her, you’ll see how outstanding she is, she’s not just a pretty face!”
“Indeed, she’s not just a pretty face,” He Jingyao nodded in agreement, “At least a vase has its aesthetic qualities, but she doesn’t.”
He Yirong was taken aback and almost thought he had misheard, “What did you say?”
“I said she’s ugly,” He Jingyao spread his hands, “Isn’t she?”
He struggled to catch his breath for a while, “You think Shutong is… ugly?”
He Yirong struggled to utter that last word.
