My Dragon Baby and Billionaire Husband-Chapter 790: Si Lisao’s Promise 1

After washing up, Ye Siyuan pulled Si Lisao into her dressing room again.

Her dressing room was more spacious and beautiful than a top-tier brand’s boutique, with clothes hung in an orderly fashion. If no one mentioned it was a dressing room, anyone walking in for the first time might mistake it for a boutique.

In the past, Ye Siyuan’s top-notch dressing room was filled with her own clothes, but now, on entering, one would find half the space dominated by men’s attire. There were dozens of ties, arranged with great style, not to mention shirts, trousers, and coats.

Si Lisao walked into the dressing room with a smile, looking at the clothes painstakingly selected for him, and said, "Why have you prepared so many clothes? I’m only staying temporarily for a couple of days."

Ye Siyuan, with her hands behind her back and a playful manner, said, "I picked them out carefully for you; better safe than sorry, right? I don’t want to steal clothes from my brother’s dressing room for you to wear anymore. Aren’t you going to praise me?"

Si Lisao’s calm eyes shimmered slightly, and he offered a two-word appraisal: "Good wife."

Ye Siyuan laughed, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, sweet and charming, absolutely captivating.

She personally selected clothes for him, from inner to outer layers.

Si Lisao saw her open a drawer and take out a pair of new but laundered boxer briefs, and he teased with a laugh, "You even know what size I wear. Did you do special research?"

Ye Siyuan’s face turned red, and she stuffed the boxer briefs into Si Lisao’s hands before bashfully running away.

After breakfast, Si Lisao, carrying gifts big and small, went to pay a New Year’s visit to Ye Siyuan’s parents.

Ye Xinguang had prepared lunch, and Ye Shen, Song Tangtang, Mo Yinhe, and Si Mingjing were all present.

At the dining table, Si Lisao suggested that after the New Year, he hoped to take Ye Siyuan to live on the Mu Continent.

Ye Junqing furrowed his brows. He did not wholly approve of cohabitation before marriage.

However, their wedding was nearly upon them, just three months away. To flatly refuse the young couple from living together before marriage would seem too old-fashioned and unaware of young people’s sentiments.

Ye Junqing decided to challenge Si Lisao with today’s most explosive news.

He put down the wine glass in his hand, his authoritative face deliberately suppressing anger, and asked, "What is your opinion on the news circulating online?"

Ye Junqing had already seen the photo Si Lisao posted on social media and the attitude he had expressed.

His eyes narrowed slightly, wanting to hear the commitment Si Lisao would make in person.

Seeing this, Si Lisao also put down his wine glass.

He said, "Dad, I’ve already had someone look into this matter. I believe you’ve also dispatched people to investigate. This incident doesn’t seem to be a simple accident. The approach is very sophisticated, appearing to leave no traces, but there is no such thing as a perfect crime without flaws. Give me some time, and I’ll give you a satisfactory answer."

Ye Junqing was dissatisfied with Si Lisao’s response, his voice growing heavier as he said, "You should know that’s not what I’m asking. Don’t beat around the bush here."

Si Lisao smiled, stood up, took the red wine from the table, and poured a glass for Ye Junqing.

"Dad, I know what you want to ask. The matters you’re worried about are not an issue for me."

Si Lisao didn’t want to discuss Ye Siyuan’s infertility due to diet pills in front of her, worried it might ruin her mood or make her sad, so he said, "My desire to bring Si Yuan to live on the Mu Continent already shows my stance."

Ye Junqing stroked his wine glass and asked, "You really don’t mind?"

"It’s not that I don’t mind."

As Si Lisao’s words fell, Ye Siyuan’s heart thudded violently.

Si Lisao took her hand, signaling her to be at ease, and continued, "Since I’ve decided to marry Si Yuan, the only thing that would be unacceptable is if she were to become a man. Other than that, nothing can change my determination to marry her. As a man, I feel this is the most basic responsibility. If I didn’t even have this much commitment, you wouldn’t have the peace of mind to entrust your daughter to me."

Ye Junqing was not moved by Si Lisao’s words.

He thought with cynicism: A man’s words are just a pack of lies!

Ye Junqing addressed Si Mingjing, who was focused on eating, "Mingjing, tell him, are you confident you can cure Si Yuan’s physical condition? And tell him there’s still room for him to back out of this marriage."

Si Mingjing was suddenly put on the spot.

Feeling overwhelmed, she slowly finished chewing the beef slice in her mouth, put down her chopsticks, and said, "Crown Prince, I’m sorry, but I am at a loss regarding Si Yuan’s condition. I’ve consulted with both my masters, and they don’t have any effective methods or information..."

"It’s alright," Si Lisao interjected. "I have already sent people to the Mu Continent to find a renowned gynecologist. If Chinese medicine doesn’t work, we will try Western medicine. If Western medicine also offers no solution, then so be it. I don’t have an absolute demand for offspring."

Worried that his father-in-law might not believe him, Si Lisao added, "On the Mu Continent, men’s views on carrying on the family line are different from those in Atlantis, and also different from other countries. Women value this aspect more than men do."

Ye Junqing suddenly realized that on the Mu Continent, it was the women who carried on the family lineage, not the men. Men married out, and even if they had children, the children did not carry the men’s surname. Perhaps that’s why Si Lisao might truly not care that much about this matter?

Ye Junqing had lived half his life and was indifferent to sweet words of reassurance from his son-in-law. Instead, the different societal system of the Mu Continent that Si Lisao had described was what convinced him. Suddenly, he felt the issue at hand was insignificant, utterly uninteresting.

Ye Junqing stopped delving deeper into the topic and agreed, saying, "As long as Si Yuan is willing to go to the Mu Continent with you, we as parents are not going to stand in the way. You young people can make your own decisions."

Ye Siyuan’s face bloomed with happiness. "Dad, I am willing!"

Ye Junqing looked at his daughter and said nothing.

He felt a twinge of disappointment. A grown daughter eventually leaves the nest, he mused.

After the meal, Ye Junqing confided his dissatisfaction to his wife. Ye Xinguang couldn’t be bothered with him, even retorting, "When I wasn’t yet married, didn’t I also live at your family’s house for a trial marriage for a year? Back then, my parents didn’t make such a fuss as you are now, saying a daughter cannot be kept at home. Instead, they even called to tell us to get along well."

"How can that be the same?"

Ye Junqing was just such a man of double standards, proclaiming confidently, "At that time, you were the one selected for me in the state lottery, and the state mandated that we were an official match. A trial marriage for a year before the wedding—those were the rules!"

Ye Xinguang rolled her eyes. For a man with double standards, her approach was to simply ignore him outright. Her daughter had grown up; pursuing love and marriage was her freedom. It wasn’t possible to keep their daughter at home forever. She hadn’t liked Si Lisao previously because he had made their daughter sad, but now her daughter was clearly very happy. Moreover, Si Lisao didn’t mind such a significant issue as her infertility. This son-in-law wasn’t bad at all! Her daughter had good judgment; the man she had chosen was excellent. Ye Xinguang was truly happy for her daughter.
