Seeing that Dad wasn’t coaxing this time and felt that her father was really angry, she quickly walked over. Though she was quite aloof outside, her father was the best for her, this Yang Tianzhen always knew.

She quickly grabbed her father’s arm, her voice softened a lot: "Dad, don’t be angry, I know I’m wrong. If you want me to meet him, I can, but you can’t force me. After all, matters of the heart, you know a forced relationship isn’t sweet, so I hope you can give me some time, okay? Dad!"

Yang Tian heard his daughter soften up and knew it was all because of him. When will she learn to be sensible? If she softened her attitude towards those suitors, maybe she would see their good qualities.

But unfortunately, chasing his daughter proved too proud.

He worried for a long time, even when his daughter was in college, feared she would marry abroad, so he always urged her to come back quickly. Now she’s finally home, but won’t look for a partner or go on dates.

Though he certainly has the means to ensure she never wants for anything, what will she do once he’s gone? She has to find someone to rely on, so she’s not lonely for life. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Grabbing his daughter’s hand, he spoke with a bit of heartfelt pleading: "You didn’t have a mother growing up. In this aspect, Dad feels especially guilty and always hoped to make it up to you. But no matter what, I can’t make it up to you. All Dad wants is your happiness. As long as you’re happy, then Dad will be happy."

Ultimately, he’s bound to leave this world. Before leaving, if he can see someone wholeheartedly love his daughter as he does, Yang Tian will be at peace.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t dare close his eyes his whole life. And now his health isn’t as good as it used to be; even work is sometimes beyond his strength. He truly fears suddenly leaving this world one day.

Yang Tianzhen felt a bit down. Indeed, she lacked maternal love since childhood and was curious about what her mother looked like. Seeing others have a mother made her particularly sad. But as she grew up, perhaps her heart grew a bit stronger, allowing her to deliberately overlook what she lacked, living somewhat happily.

She still hoped to give complete maternal love to her child. Thinking of this, her face flushed.

Seeing the situation, Yang Tian thought his daughter finally changed her mind, quickly pulled her hand.

"Alright then, since you’ve come to terms, that’s wonderful. Dad will introduce Xu Ke to you now. You actually met him earlier, but your character’s too proud. You should exchange contact details, so you can reach out with any issues. If you feel it’s not right, Dad absolutely won’t force you."

After saying this, Yang Tian again pulled the unwilling Yang Tianzhen to Xu Ke.

Seeing the father-daughter duo, Xu Ke was a bit surprised, as he met them before and the business was already discussed.

He set his tasks aside, placed the wine glass on the table.

"Isn’t there some detail President Yang doesn’t understand? I can explain slowly, because we rushed our discussion, the contract isn’t completely drafted, so give me a bit more time."

Xu Ke was prepared before but didn’t want to bring work to this birthday party, as it’s Yiyang Qianxi’s birthday. Mixing work with the occasion would be disrespectful.

Though the contract was mostly ready, just needed names replaced and some clauses added.

Yang Tianzhen looked at Xu Ke from head to toe, except for his appearance, saw no merits. Thinking of her father wanting her to know this person, so her opinion of Xu Ke worsened.

"You’re a company boss and didn’t bring a contract, and lack seriousness in work. With such an attitude, are you fit to cooperate with Xingyu Group? Dad, I think this partnership should be dropped, he shows no sincerity."

Yang Tianzhen finished, lifting her chin, looking unafraid, while Xu Ke reassessed this heiress, unaware of having offended her, felt she’s deliberately nitpicking.

Yang Tian frowned, hadn’t she agreed to meet? Why is she instantly confrontational? How would someone grow fond of this?

He shook his head helplessly: "Hope President Xu doesn’t mind, I’ve spoiled her, so she’s a bit willful. Right, our partnership won’t end, and I admire you greatly. This is my daughter, Yang Tianzhen, just returned from abroad."

Xu Ke nodded acknowledgingly, smiling: "Miss Yang is indeed beautiful, but if she spoke a bit sweeter, she’d be even prettier."

Being so sassy upfront, as if someone owed her three million, Xu Ke’s impression of Yang Tianzhen was particularly bad. But with her father present, Xu Ke could only give a gentle reminder.

Yang Tianzhen heard this, her face blushed. Though she knew her looks, her aloofness deterred people from openly praising.

Thus followed anger and embarrassment, while Yang Tian’s eyes brightened, could it be Xu Ke liked his daughter?

If true, that’d be wonderful. He’d stop at nothing to match the young pair, not holding any elite family views, just wanted the youth to be happy.

"What are you saying? I’m already beautiful, don’t need your compliments. You’re truly silver-tongued. Dad, Dad, don’t work with him; he only talks pretty, lacks everything else, I’d be insane to follow you for this."

Finished speaking, she rushed off in high heels, while passing Xiao Keyi stiffened, her face turned pale, turning to the familiar voice, felt her heart was being pricked all over.

Just briefly away, how did this happen? And Xu Ke praising others.

First Jin Yina, then Yang Tianzhen, what am I to him? Maybe he just has a fish pond, and I accidentally entered.

She wiped her tears and ran away.

Unexpectedly, this heiress’s tolerance was so low, with only a word, she directly fled.

"President Yang, my apologies, seems I upset your precious daughter."
