You’re in love with me.

    This sentence echoed in Lin Jun’s mind like a thunderclap.

    He’s in love with Ye Mingyuan? How could that be possible?

    Ye Mingyuan: “You’re worried about me.”

    Lin Jun retorted reflexively, “That’s because…”

    Ye Mingyuan: “But you’ve already decided to tell your family all this.”

    Ye Mingyuan knew what family meant to Lin Jun.

    To protect him and prevent him from taking risks alone, Lin Jun didn’t hesitate to ask his family for help, even willing to admit their relationship and identity in front of his family.

    If it wasn’t because he was moved, Ye Mingyuan couldn’t think of any other reason.

    Lin Jun choked.

    If it were two months ago, he could have confidently said that he had absolutely no feelings for Ye Mingyuan.

    But now, Lin Jun suddenly found that he couldn’t refute Ye Mingyuan.

    After experiencing so much, facing Ye Mingyuan’s unreserved trust and tolerance, Lin Jun inevitably fell little by little.

    “You…” Lin Jun’s head was still a little messed up.

    But looking at Ye Mingyuan’s confidence, he felt a little unbalanced.

    Why does this person always dig pits for him?

    Ye Mingyuan looked at his tangled expression and reminded, “Are you still going to make your call?”

    “…” Lin Jun took a deep breath and turned around: “Of course I’m going to make it.”

    His fingertip lingered on the Personal Terminal for a long time, but Lin Jun hesitated to press it. After hesitating for a while, he turned around again: “You go out first.”

    Ye Mingyuan raised an eyebrow.

    Lin Jun took a step forward and personally pushed him out of the room: “Go out, go out, I’ll make the call myself.”

    He didn’t want to talk about such a shameful topic in front of Ye Mingyuan.

    The door of the room slammed shut in front of him, and Lin Jun took a deep breath before pressing the communication button on the Personal Terminal.

    Hopefully, his dad won’t get high blood pressure from anger.

    The communication rang a few times before it was quickly connected.

    A familiar figure appeared in the semi-transparent light screen, and Lin Jun couldn’t help but straighten his back: “Father.”

    Lin Yuan seemed to be sitting at his desk reading a book. He took off his glasses and rubbed his brow: “It’s so late, why did you suddenly think of calling me?”

    Lin Jun nervously swallowed.

    It’s all the same whether he faces it sooner or later.

    Lin Jun closed his eyes: “Dad, I’m pregnant.”

    Lin Yuan’s hand rubbing his brow paused. He was silent for a while before lightly saying, “Mm.”

    “?” Lin Jun waited for a long time but didn’t hear a scolding.

    He cautiously opened his eyes.

    That’s it? No reaction? So calm?

    Lin Jun was a little confused.

    Lin Yuan glanced at his son and sighed: “You’re so high-profile in your relationship, how could I not know?”

    Lin Jun was stunned, inexplicably recalling a confession video he had seen before.

    He coughed awkwardly and tentatively asked, “So, you also know about me going for the surgery?”

    Lin Yuan raised his eyes and glanced at him.

    Lin Jun covered his mouth.

    Understood.

    Lin Jun began to wonder for the first time, how did he fall in love with Ye Mingyuan in his previous life?

    Was it really so high-profile that everyone knew?

    “Then do you know Ye Mingyuan’s identity?”

    Lin Yuan looked up at him in surprise, sensitively catching information from his words: “Does he have a special identity?”

    Phew… Finally, there’s something his dad doesn’t know.

    Come to think of it, the Ye family spent so many years confirming Ye Mingyuan’s identity, so it’s natural that his dad wouldn’t know.

    Lin Jun straightened his face and, omitting the details, briefly explained what he knew.

    The boy’s clear voice echoed in the room, and the expression on Lin Yuan’s face became more and more serious.

    “Is what you said true?”

    “Yes.” Lin Jun nodded solemnly: “I have some evidence here. I can send it to you if you need it.”

    Seeing that his expression didn’t seem like a lie, Lin Yuan frowned, somewhat blaming: “Such a big matter, and you’re only telling me now.”

    “…” Lin Jun shrank his neck from the scolding.

    He was reborn, and he didn’t dare to act rashly without understanding the situation.

    If Ye Mingyuan hadn’t frankly revealed all his cards to him, he probably wouldn’t have dared to make this call.

    “This matter has a significant impact. If it’s really as you said, the Ye family will definitely take action in these two months.”

    “Stay in Heart of Mecha for these two months and don’t go anywhere. I’ll send someone over.”

    Lin Jun breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.

    With Lin Yuan’s protection, even if the Ye family took action, their safety could be guaranteed.

    What they have to do now is to stay here peacefully and get through these most dangerous two months.

    “By the way, I’ll give you a phone number. Send the information you have in hand to this channel later.”

    Lin Yuan was determined to take care of the Ye family’s treason.

    The long-closed door finally opened again.

    Ye Mingyuan leaned against the wall by the door. He turned around when he heard the sound: “Finished talking?”

    Lin Jun was slightly stunned: “You’ve been waiting here?”

    Ye Mingyuan turned around and put his arm around Lin Jun, leading him into the room.

    “What did you say to Dad?”

    “I told him everything…” Lin Jun just started to answer, but then felt something was wrong: “What did you call him?”

    “Dad, of course.” Ye Mingyuan raised an eyebrow. He smiled and glanced at Lin Jun’s lower abdomen: “Shouldn’t I call him Dad?”

    Lin Jun: “…”

    He couldn’t refute it.

    Lin Jun forcibly pulled his thoughts back on track: “I said basically everything I knew. My dad asked me to send him the information.”

    Ye Mingyuan thought for a moment and nodded: “Well, then send it to him.”

    Lin Jun was stunned. He didn’t expect Ye Mingyuan to be so straightforward.

    Ye Mingyuan seemed to see what he was thinking: “Although my maternal grandfather left me a lot of people, their sphere of influence is small after all. They can only do some stealing information and petty things. This information can only play its greatest role with Dad.”

    Ye Mingyuan breathed a long sigh of relief as if a weight had been lifted off his shoulders: “Leave it all to him. I’m retiring too. Now I can experience what it’s like to be a kept man.”

    He said this jokingly, but Lin Jun couldn’t laugh.

    “Ye Mingyuan.”

    “Mm?”

    “If I hadn’t been reborn, what would you have done?”

    If he hadn’t returned, Ye Mingyuan would have to carry such a heavy past, protect his partner, protect his family, and fight against the huge family forces alone…

    What kind of mood has he been planning all this with over the years?

    Ye Mingyuan was silent for a while: “Actually, I’m not sure either. I don’t know if I would win.”

    “So at first, I wanted to get close to you, but I didn’t dare to establish a relationship with you.”

    He smiled softly.

    “I thought it through later. No matter what the final result is, at least with you, it wouldn’t be a waste to live once.”

    Shed two crocodile tears for little Ye.
