Chapter 2289 - Not doing it for the people, only doing it for one person

Chapter 2289 Not doing it for the people, only doing it for one person 

Behind the reception pavilion, Medusa elbowed Ye Wanwan and teased, “You’re… the reason behind Director Si’s selfishness, right?”

Ye Wanwan stared at the man in front of her and couldn’t help but recall what He Lianjue said earlier.

Everyone was pursuing power but this man seemed to lack any personal desire of his own and always solely lived for her…

Medusa lowered her voice and warned her, “However, Worriless, you can’t trust him too much. No man can resist the temptation of power. If they can resist it, it’s merely because the temptation isn’t big enough!”

“If Master really had a daughter and wanted to marry her to him, do you think he’d still be indifferent?”

…

Yi Lingjun smiled. “It appears… Director Si isn’t doing it for the people and only doing it for one person?”

“Yes,” Si Yehan replied.

“Young people are rather honest, but you should know that the probability of me supporting you would be higher if you said it was for the Independent State,” Yi Lingjun said insinuatingly.

“I believe that you should value the result more, President. My original intentions aren’t important.”

His original intentions might not be important to other people, but it was very important to him.

Yi Lingjun swirled the tea leaves in his cup with the lid before abruptly switching the topic. “There’s actually another reason I rushed back to Tianshui City this time.”

Si Yehan expressed his puzzlement and listened attentively. “May I ask what reason that was, President?”

Yi Lingjun released a long sigh before announcing, “I found my long lost daughter!”

Pfffff——

Behind the reception pavilion, Ye Wanwan was listening to Senior Sister and nearly choked when she heard Yi Lingjun’s sentence.

What the heck was this old devil saying?!

However, what followed was more exasperating…

Si Yehan was also evidently astonished at hearing that. “You have a daughter, President?”

Everyone in the Independent State knew that Yi Lingjun was unmarried and didn’t have children.

Yi Lingjun looked proud. “That’s right! Of course I have a daughter and she’s a very adorable and beautiful girl!”

Every parent in the world would think their child was the best, and Yi Lingjun appeared to be no exception.

Hence, when Si Yehan heard this, he didn’t find anything wrong with it. “Congratulations are in order then, President.”

Yi Lingjun closely observed Si Yehan’s reaction as he continued with endless sighs. “Unfortunately, this girl’s standards are too high and hasn’t taken a fancy to anyone. As a father, what I want to see the most is her finding an ideal husband. Regarding her marriage, I’ve simply been wretched by anxiety!”

Si Yehan inexplicably felt something was wrong with the direction of this topic.

His astuteness told him that Yi Lingjun was purposefully saying these words to him, but he didn’t feel like Yi Lingjun was this kind of master… who would do something like this…

Hence, Si Yehan fell into silence for a moment before emptily replying, “Fate merely hasn’t come yet. You don’t need to be so worried, President.”

A sharp glint flickered through Yi Lingjun’s eyes before he bluntly said, “Seeing Director Si today has made an impression on me. You’re outstanding and capable, your thoughts are open and frank, and your appearance must be liked by girls. That daughter of mine has liked good-looking people since she was born…”

At this point, Yi Lingjun’s meaning was very obvious.

So much so that Si Yehan turned completely quiet. Yi Lingjun actually wanted to matchmake his daughter with him…?
