"What did we forget?" Qi Yan said coldly, "I don't plan to ask my father for permission or is it you who wants to notify your parents?" 

Jiang Jiamian was immediately speechless.

If Jiang Zhiguo were to come around and meddle in his affairs again, he would rather marry Qi Yan immediately.

"Marry a man!? I don't allow it!"

In the year of graduation, Qi Yan's father immediately became angry when he heard his son's words, ignoring his original plan of slowly repairing the relationship with him.

Qi Yan said coldly, "I'm just politely informing you, and whether you come to the wedding is entirely up to you. And I forgot to tell you, it's useless if you want to stop it. When we first entered college four years ago, we had already received the certificate."

"You, you!" Qi Zinan trembled with anger, then his eyes rolled back and he fainted.

Qi Yan frowned slightly, "Housekeeper, call 120."

"Yes, Master."

Jiang Jiamian looked at Qi Yan who was indifferent even if his father fainted, and felt a little sympathetic, "I think, I would better not notify my parents at all, anyway they will not come." 

Qi Yan turned around and hugged him gently, "I'm sorry."

"What's wrong?" Jiang Jiamian chuckled, "Don't act like you care about others opinion."

Qi Yan lowered his eyes. Of course, he didn't care whether he would receive blessings from his family, but he was just afraid that Jiang Jiamian would be uncomfortable.

But seeing Jiang Jiamian's reaction, he felt relieved.

It's unknown if it's because Jiang Zhiguo was too embarrassed to take the initiative to contact Jiang Jiamian on his own or because he waited for him to bow his head first, but has indeed not come to see Jiang Jiamian for many years.

Jiang Jiamian once thought that Jiang Zhiguo had completely given up contact with his eldest son and was focusing on raising a second child, which was exactly what he wanted.

But one day when he was already twenty-nine years old, Jiang Jiamian went out and bumped into someone. Before he could see the other person's face clearly, he was hugged by the stranger's arm, "Jiamian, I have found you! Please, save your brother!"

Jiang Jiamian: "..." Wait, who are you?

Qi Yan's face turned cold as he raised his hand to push the man away. Jiang Jiamian took a closer look and recognized that it was Jiang Zhiguo.

"Jiamian, dad knows that you are rich now and have your own company, you are also married to the young master of the Qi family. Dad doesn't care about your money, but begs you to save your brother!" Jiang Zhiguo's face was filled with tears.

Tired and dusty, he seemed to have just arrived here.

Jiang Jiamian's eyes narrowed slightly, "It seems that you are well-informed about me."

He thought that Jiang Zhiguo had completely forgotten about him.

Jiang Zhiguo's eyes flashed, and he glanced at Qi Yan beside him with some disgust, but because he was asking for help today, he still suppressed it, "I know, the Qi family has a strong background. You ask him to save your brother, he is only eleven years old, he cannot have a criminal record!"

He had known before that his son had gone to a good university, and it was not that he had not wanted to come to him to restore the relationship, but soon he heard that his son was getting engaged to a man.

And he still wanted to hold a wedding blatantly!

With a man!

Doesn't that make him feel disgusted?

So what if he goes to college? How could he, a dignified man as him, have such a shameless son? He actually married a man and held a wedding with great fanfare, for fear that others would not know about it.

If he went to find Jiang Jiamian, everyone would know that his son had been fucked by a man. No, since he had a younger son anyway, he would pretend that he didn't have such a son at all.

Originally, Jiang Zhiguo firmly believed that he would never see Jiang Jiamian again in his life.

But, now he has no choice.

He was desperate.

His second son actually didn't learn well at a young age and was even worse than his eldest son. Not only did he bring countless problems, but also participated in stealing and was caught.

Although he won't go to jail because he is a minor, he will have a criminal record.

Jiang Zhiguo really had no choice but to come to his eldest son and see if he, or the Qi family, could think of a way to go through the back door to get out of this.

"Criminal record?" Jiang Jiamian stood with his arms crossed, "What extraordinary thing has he done?"

Seeing him asking, Jiang Zhiguo thought it was funny, after all, they were brothers. "He and others…"

"Nevermind. How does he become like this?" Jiang Jiamian was not really interested in knowing it so he interrupted and asked another question.

How did this younger brother grow up?

"You didn't come back to take care of him, your mother and I hired a nanny." Jiang Zhiguo said angrily.

It seems that when this matter was brought up, he was still angry because Jiang Jiamian refused to help at that time.

"Oh..."

Jiang Jiamian raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but ask the question, "If you can hire someone to take care of the child, why not hire someone to manage the shoe factory?"

Jiang Zhiguo frowned, "What about that? A child will always grow up if someone takes care of him. If he doesn't learn well, it will be his own failure. The shoe factory is our family's bread. How can we rest assured if we leave it to others?" 

Jiang Jiamian nodded, too lazy to argue with him, "I can't save him. However, I have a suggestion."

Jiang Zhiguo was stunned, "What?"

Jiang Jiamian suddenly grinned, "You can always raise another child! Anyway, you are only fifty, and if you work hard, you may have a chance, but if it doesn't work, there is also an in vitro fertilization, right?" 

After hearing that, Jiang Zhiguo stood there blankly, he actually seemed to be really thinking about it. Jiang Jiamian took the initiative to hold Qi Yan's hand and left, bypassing him.

Some things don't make sense because the concepts are different, so it's impossible to make sense.

Today's society is full of temptations and traps, and not all children have strong self-control. They are no longer in the era of Jiang Zhiguo's generation, when a child can be raised with just having enough to eat.

Moreover, even in Jiang Zhiguo's generation, his parents may not let him live alone in a cold house all day long, without relatives or playmates.

And no matter how busy the parents were, they would go home most evenings instead of living thousands of miles apart from their family.

Fortunately, with Jiang Jiamian's awareness of current affairs, Qi Yan's suitcase containing a small hammer and chain was never opened in his life.

Later, the two of them were gray-haired and the box had accumulated dust.

Even though Qi Yan was already an old man, his appearance still showed some of his youthful charm, "Jiang Jamian, will you blame me for keeping you by my side forever?" 

Jiang Jiamian said vaguely, "I really can't run."

Qi Yan suddenly smiled, "Actually, I never wanted to hurt you. Now, I can tell you the secret."

Jiang Jiamian was stunned, "Secret?"

What secret made Qi Yan not speak until now and actually hid it in his heart all his life?

He tightened his grip and looked at Jiang Jiamian with serious eyes.

"I deliberately let you see that suitcase. If I scare you, you won't run away."

Jiang Jiamian: "..." Bah, he has been frightened like this for his whole life!?

Damn it, this is the most ridiculous thing in the world! 

Unfortunately, no matter how upset he was, facing Qi Yan whose time was approaching, Jiang Jiamian could not say a single harsh word, "Forget it, I have enough, I won't argue with you." 

Besides, in this life, Qi Yan's affection and love for him can definitely be called the ultimate.

After living all his life, Jiang Jiamian said that he had no feelings, but how could he really have no feelings at all.

Seeing the warm emotion in Jiang Jiamian's eyes that he himslef didn't even notice, Qi Yan seemed to have his own answer. He slowly grabbed Jiang Jiamian's hand and closed his eyes with a smile.

Jiang Jiamian didn't notice that the moment Qi Yan closed his eyes, an almost invisible halo of light penetrated the sky and disappeared.

At the same time, in the fast traveler communication group, the three-dimensional portrait of the group leader lit up for a moment, and then quickly changed back to the bleak color of the hidden state.

Unfortunately, none of the members in the group saw all this.
