TCBHIWAF Chapter 104
by VolareChapter 104: Parents love their children and plan far ahead for them.
As Bai Shiya entered the office, she saw Lin Qingfeng sitting at his desk. His face seemed no different from usual, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
“Qingfeng, let’s eat first.” Bai Shiya’s tone was full of concern.
She gently took out the dishes from the food box one by one and arranged them on the table, moving with extra care, as if afraid of disturbing Lin Qingfeng.
Lin Qingfeng looked at the familiar dishes on the table, but only felt a mix of emotions. Although he had little appetite, he forced himself to eat some so as not to worry his wife.
After finishing the meal, Bai Shiya did not leave but sat quietly on the sofa beside him, her eyes never leaving Lin Qingfeng, her gaze full of worry.
She knew that Lin Qingfeng suffered from heart disease, and this incident with their son was like a bombshell. She was afraid that Lin Qingfeng would be stimulated and his body would not be able to handle it.
Just then, Lin Qingfeng picked up his phone, about to check something.
Like a conditioned reflex, Bai Shiya immediately got up from the sofa, rushed over, and grabbed the phone, her tone anxious: “Qingfeng, look at your phone less, it’s bad for your eyes.”
Lin Qingfeng looked at her helplessly and said, “I need to make a call.”
Bai Shiya held the phone tightly in her hand, her eyes full of tension and determination: “I’ll make it for you.”
Saying that, she nervously walked to the side, staring at the phone screen, as if the phone would detonate a “bomb” that Lin Qingfeng couldn’t handle in the next second.
Lin Qingfeng looked at Bai Shiya, his eyes full of tenderness and insight, and said softly: “Xiaoya, you know, you’ve never been good at lying.”
He slowly got up, each step seeming to carry many thoughts, and walked steadily but somewhat heavily to Bai Shiya.
He reached out his hand, moving gently as if afraid of disturbing a frightened fawn, gently took Bai Shiya’s hand, led her to the sofa, and sat down together.
The leather of the sofa felt soft, but it was difficult to smooth out the complex emotions that rippled in both of their hearts.
Lin Qingfeng held Bai Shiya’s hand tightly. His palm was wide and warm, but at this moment, his hand was trembling slightly, revealing the turbulence deep in his heart.
He looked serious and said in a solemn tone, “I’ve already seen everything online about our son.”
Hearing this, Bai Shiya’s eyes flashed with panic. As if instinctively wanting to escape this cruel reality, she hurriedly said, “Don’t think too much, maybe those news are fake?”
Lin Qingfeng shook his head slightly, his tone firm and low: “It’s true.”
Bai Shiya’s eyes widened, her eyes full of worry and incomprehension, and she eagerly asked, “How do you know?”
Lin Qingfeng paused slightly, his deep gaze looking out the window at the bustling but somewhat noisy city street scene, as if recalling the past through it all.
After a moment, he withdrew his gaze, his expression solemn and with an undeniable firmness, and slowly said:
“I’m not as fragile as you think. In this situation, shouldn’t we be thinking about how to help our son solve this thorny issue?
The pain he’s suffering must be far greater than ours.
If the two of us lose our composure and something goes wrong, how can he bear it?”
Hearing this, Bai Shiya’s eyes instantly turned red, tears welled up in her eyes, and she couldn’t help but ask, “Do you still know something?”
Lin Qingfeng thought for a moment and then spoke:
“Do you remember two years ago? He resolutely went abroad alone. After thinking about it, I guess he was trying to avoid Ye Xingchen.
Although I don’t know what exactly happened between them, just looking at his distraught appearance at the time, he must also be deeply in love with Ye Xingchen.
Although our views are more traditional, we are not the kind of stubborn parents.”
Bai Shiya said, sighing softly, and then continued: “I don’t think we should oppose him, but rather support him.
Although this matter may have some impact on the family and the company, isn’t it enough as long as our son can live well?”
Lin Qingfeng nodded silently, his brows furrowed, lost in deep thought.
After a moment, he slowly said:
“You’re right, our son’s happiness is the most important thing. It’s just that this matter involves too much, and we have to think carefully about how to help them deal with the situation ahead.”
Their eyes met, and in each other’s eyes, they clearly saw the unwavering determination to do everything for their son.

Lin Yu muddled through the afternoon at the company.
As it neared the end of the workday…
“Ding ding ding—” Ye Xingchen’s call came.
Lin Yu was full of annoyance, glanced at the caller ID, and directly hung up.
At this time, Ye Xingchen’s car was parked quietly not far from Xingyao Company.
His face was gloomy, he glanced at the hung-up phone, and stared intently at the company gate, watching the employees leave one after another, but Lin Yu’s figure was nowhere to be seen.
After everyone had left and the company entrance was deserted, Lin Yu still didn’t come downstairs.
Ye Xingchen couldn’t sit still any longer, pushed open the car door, got out of the car, and strode towards the building.
Before long.
Ye Xingchen arrived at the door of Lin Yu’s office.
He raised his hand and knocked on the door, “Dong dong dong,” the sound was particularly clear in the quiet corridor, but there was no response from inside the office.
He increased the force and knocked again, “Dong dong dong dong,” but still no one answered.
A sense of unease rose in Ye Xingchen’s heart, and he couldn’t restrain himself any longer. He directly turned the doorknob and walked in.
“Where is he?” Ye Xingchen asked in confusion. The office was empty.
He was full of doubt and muttered to himself, “That’s strange, he didn’t come down, where could he have gone?”
Relying on a man’s intuition, Ye Xingchen’s gaze turned to the small room in the CEO office.
He walked over quickly, and the closer he got to the small room, the clearer he could hear the sound of rushing water.
Ye Xingchen subconsciously reached out and grasped the doorknob, gently pushed, and the door slowly opened.
In the bathroom, in the misty air, Lin Yu’s figure could be vaguely seen.
At this moment, Lin Yu was standing under the shower, letting the water pour down from his head, as if trying to wash away all the worries and fatigue.
He seemed to be immersed in his own world, completely unaware of everything around him.
Until a “clang” sound, the sound of the bathroom door being opened by Ye Xingchen broke the silence.
Lin Yu’s whole body shook, and he slowly turned his head, seeing Ye Xingchen at the door through the layers of water vapor.
His eyes instantly turned cold, and he spat out two words ruthlessly: “Get out.”
The voice was undeniably cold, as if to reject Ye Xingchen a thousand miles away.
