Upstairs, Ye An brought Ye Qingning back to the room, and he took a pillow and nestled on the sofa.
"Don't think too much." Ye An knew that Ye Qingning was a little more sensitive than ordinary people.
"Actually, I probably guessed what they were discussing." Ye Qingning was young, but he had a sense of transparency. In addition, his behavior is similar to Ji Huaiyu's. Many times, his way of thinking about problems is the same as Ji Huaiyu's.
The content of the conversation between Ye Qi and Chen Wenxiong was probably based on Ji Huaiyu's analysis of the pros and cons for Ye Qi in advance. No matter how close he is to the Ye family, he is still an outsider in this situation, and he can only protect Ye Qingning in this way.
Ye An didn't know the content of their conversation, but he knew with his feet that the topic that the parties concerned should avoid was naturally not a good topic.
She was not used to comforting others, so she could only drink water strategically. "Then what do you think?"
"As long as the result can be achieved, it doesn't matter what the process is. Brother and the others will come up with the optimal solution." Ye Qingning's voice was calm, without any ups and downs.
Her posture for making tea was extremely elegant and correct, and when she finished speaking, the tea was just ready.
"Would you like tea?" Ye Qingning handed the teacup to her.
Ye An raised her eyebrows. Regarding Ye Qingning, she always felt that Ye Qingning was a magical and unpredictable person.
She has the cleverness and agility of an ordinary girl, but also has an otherworldly indifference. She will be uneasy when dealing with her own affairs, but she can always adjust her emotions quickly and keep things within her control.
Whenever I stay by her side, I feel a sense of calmness, from the inside out, as if all the restlessness in her presence will be absorbed by her and disappear. Even people like Tang Tang who can't sit still can become quiet as long as they are next to her.
She remembered that Ye Qingning once went to the library to look for information. She originally thought that Tang Tang would choose to go home, but unexpectedly she stayed with Ye Qingning quietly in the library for two hours.
She put down the water glass, picked up the tea, and drank it in one gulp. Unlike Ye Qingning's gentle sip, she drank it in a very bold way.
Ye Qingning curled his lips without any hint of ridicule.
"anything else?"
Ye An nodded.
The atmosphere between the two of them was very relaxed, but the atmosphere downstairs was much more serious.
Chen Wenxiong sighed. He pursed his lips, but said nothing. Li Lanxin patted Chen Wenxiong's hand and looked at Ye Qi with an expression of relief.
"It can be seen that you all really love Ning Yatou. It is all your credit that she has grown into the beautiful, gentle, kind, and outstanding person she is today. If she had been allowed to grow up in the Chen family, according to our attitude back then, Ning Yatou may not be able to become an excellent person."
Li Lanxin sighed. Their original purpose was not pure. They wanted to find the child. They just wanted to hope that their daughter could return to normal. Now that Ye Qi said this, the two of them suddenly realized that they almost harmed the child in the name of the other's good.
"In this case, do you think there is any better solution?"
"No matter how we do this, Ning Ning will be wronged. We still have to hold the family recognition banquet. It's just that the Chen family holds a family banquet in private, which can be regarded as allowing Ning Ning to recognize her ancestors and return to the clan. Is this okay with the two elders? "Ye Shaohua pondered for a moment and gave a solution.
Li Lanxin looked at Chen Wenxiong, who was holding a cane as if thinking about something.
After a long while, he nodded.
"Don't worry, I will take care of the family banquet and will not let Ning Yatou suffer any injustice in the Chen family."
With that said, Chen Wenxiong stood up. "I've been bothered for a few days. I will set another time for the family banquet. Then I will come to pick up Ning Yatou. From now on, Ning Yatou will have to rely on you."
"No matter what Mr. Chen said, we always regard Ning Ning as our biological daughter. Even if you don't say it, we will not be biased against several children."
Chen Wenxiong didn't say anything. Instead, Li Lanxin patted Jiang Lanxi's hand, saying nothing.
After sending the two people away, several people sat in the living room and pushed each other around. Finally, Ye Qi was promoted as the representative to convey to Ye Qingning the consequences of their discussion. Ye Qi didn't have any objections. Instead of letting his unreliable parents and his two younger brothers, whose mouths looked the same as they didn't, go up, it would be more practical for him to go.
He knocked on the door and pushed in after receiving a response.
"Brother, do you want some tea?" Although Ye Qingning asked, the tea had already been poured.
Ye Qi curled his lips and his frown relaxed.
"It's been a long time since I drank the tea made by Ning Ning." Ye Qi sat next to Ye An, picked it up, took a sip, and drank it all.
"Is it okay?"
Ye Qi nodded and put down the tea cup.
"Grandpa Chen and the others have left?"
"right."
Speaking of Mr. Chen, Ye Qi straightened his body unconsciously.
"The marriage recognition banquet...isn't going to be held?" Ye Qingning's words successfully blocked all Ye Qi's words. He nodded and looked at Ye Qingning, who showed no negative emotions such as loss or anxiety on his face.
"Ning Ning, what do you think?"
"What's the result after your discussion?"
"Cancel the recognition banquet. Mr. Chen plans to hold a family banquet privately and take you there to recognize him." Ye Qi stopped beating around the bush and told Ye Qingning the result of the discussion.
Ye Qingning nodded, and Ye Qi's answer was within his expectations. The original uneasy mood dissipated instantly. For her, she didn't want to be too ostentatious. More often, she just wanted an attitude.
If Chen Wenxiong insists on holding a recognition banquet, then she will have to reconsider the matter of recognition.
It can be said that this group of people has eight hundred minds.
"When?" Ye Qingning asked.
"I haven't said anything yet. Mr. Chen has to go back and make arrangements."
Although he said that, Chen Wenxiong called him that night and discussed the time for the family dinner with Ye Qingning. Jiang Lanxi was afraid that Ye Qingning would be disrespected there, so she spent a week busy matching her gifts and choosing gifts, trying not to make any mistakes.
Soon, the day of the family dinner arrived.
"This is a family dinner for the Chen family. It's not convenient for us to go there. Don't be afraid of being alone. If you feel uncomfortable, just call me and I will pick you up immediately." Ye Qi instructed.
"Yes, your parents are waiting for you at home." Jiang Lanxi was held in Ye Shaohua's arms, her expression full of worry.
"That's right, the three of us will stay at home today. If anything happens, we will go and support you immediately." Ye Lin rubbed her head. Ye Ke and Ye An stood behind Ye Lin with tense faces.
Seeing them so nervous made Ye Qingning feel more relaxed.
She smiled and shook her head at them, "Don't worry, Grandpa Chen and his family are from a family of scholars. They can at most ask me some literary masterpieces to test me. If I can't answer the questions, I'll seek help from the outside."
When Ye Qingning said this, several people felt that they were too nervous. A group of people looked at me and I looked at you and couldn't help laughing.
When Ye Shaohua wanted to give some instructions, a car stopped steadily at the door. Chen Wenxiong and Li Lanxin wanted to take charge of the overall situation, so they did not come to pick up Ye Qingning. They had told Ye Qingning and the others in advance that they would send family members to pick her up.
The Ye family stood in front of the car, and with a click, the door opened. Seeing two familiar people, Ye Qingning was stunned for a moment.
