Chapter 8, The Warmth of Home
Are you Luo Ye's brother
Regarding the matter between Luo Ye and me, you should go back and communicate with her properly, and clarify what happened before discussing further. As for Xue'er, no one should think about taking her away from me; there are no conditions for negotiation. Xue'er is my daughter, and I will find a way to earn the money to raise her; you do not need to worry about that. " Jin Ke immediately rejected Luo Yi.
In our society, the social strata have essentially solidified. Without a solid foundation, it is utterly impossible for a child from a poor family to become the next Jack Ma. Your current age is filled with various fantasies, but once you enter society, you will face harsh realities! It is not that I look down on you; even if you were given ten years, twenty years, thirty years, or even a hundred years, you would never be worthy of my daughter Ye'er! Moreover, Ye'er does not have that much time to wait for you! If you love her, for her happiness, you must learn to let go; if you have ulterior motives or other intentions towards her, hmph, I advise you to take your benefits and leave quickly!

Ye'er is easy to fool, but I am not so easily deceived!
"Can you guess why I am looking for you?" Luo Yi, seeing that Jin Ke did not respond, then shifted to the main topic
"No matter what road it is, I will only walk the path I have chosen." Jin Ke replied to Luo Yi淡淡地.
Jin Ke did not respond to his words; if possible, he would certainly want to care for Xue'er 24 hours a day
Seventeen years old
"Six months." Jin Ke was not very clear about how many months old Xue Er was; he and Luo Ye had inferred it based on the height and weight standards for female infants of that age.
"You can just say it here." Jin Ke did not open the security door to let Luo Yi in; Xue Er's safety is the most important.
Jin Ke remained silent, simply listening quietly
However, tonight, this family has fallen apart
At.
How old are you this year
You must think this through. Starting today, all financial support for Ye'er from the family has been cut off. She can no longer spend money on you, and you will not receive anything more from her. Given your current circumstances, you are simply incapable of supporting Xue'er. Accept my terms, and at least you will ensure a worry-free life for the rest of your days, and Xue'er will also receive good care. If you refuse me, I believe your life will soon reach a dead end. " Luo Yi's tone was light, but the threat was unmistakable. Accept my terms, and at least you will ensure a worry-free life for the rest of your days, and Xue'er will also receive good care. If you refuse me, I believe your life will soon reach a dead end. " Luo Yi's tone was light, but the threat was unmistakable.
At twenty-five, I believe you have understood many of life's principles. For instance, your sister's choice of whom to be with or not to be with is her own matter, and as an older brother, it seems inappropriate for you to interfere too much. Furthermore, there are some matters you haven't investigated thoroughly, yet you speak carelessly, which also seems rather unsuitable
Let me put it this way: for various reasons, Ye'er can almost be said to have been raised by me. As the elder brother, I have a responsibility akin to that of a father. Over the past year, I have been preoccupied with other matters and have neglected her management, and I did not expect that something would happen to her. Now that the incident has occurred, I do not wish to pursue the matter any further. I will provide you with some compensation, whether in the form of money or other items; you may state your demands, and I will fulfill them as long as it is within my capability. After this, you are not to seek out Ye'er again. Additionally, I will take Xue'er with me, and I will ensure that she has a happy childhood and receives a good education in the future.
"Classmate Jin Ke, are you still there?" Luo Yi asked into the small door, appearing to have calmed his emotions.
You must have been thinking just now: 'Is there really a distinction among princes, nobles, and commoners?' Am I right? Perhaps you have read too many online novels and believe that 'Thirty years in the east of the river, thirty years in the west of the river; do not underestimate the youth in poverty!' Am I right? You think that you will definitely be remarkable in the future, that you will become a super influential figure, and then walk through the door of the Luo family to slap my face in person, right? Hehe, online novels always follow such tropes. Unfortunately, what I am about to say to you may very well shatter all your fantasies. " Luo Yi began a lengthy discourse.

"For infants aged five to six months, it is best if someone can provide full-time care, which you clearly do not have the conditions for here," Luo Yi continued speaking
"Speak up." Jin Ke said with an indifferent expression
Watching a rugged military SUV speed away from below, Jin Ke immediately returned to the room, picked up a large backpack filled with Xue'er’s diapers, milk powder, bottles, clothes, and blankets, then turned off the water and electricity in the room
"Is Xue'er asleep?" Luo Yi asked helplessly, having no choice but to inquire through the small door towards Jin Ke.
You..." Luo Yi punched the wall next to the security door, clearly quite angry
The two fell into silence, not speaking for several minutes.
"Alright, I have finished speaking. Now it's your turn to express your stance. Will you let go of my money and benefits, or will you continue to entangle yourself with Ye'er?" Luo Yi remained silent for half a minute before speaking again
Yes
Well
I do not know what means you used to deceive Ye Er into being with you, even making her give birth to your child. Before doing all this, did you understand the background of the Luo family? Do you know the consequences of your actions? Are you aware of the disparity between you and her? There is one thing I hope you understand: you and she are not suitable for each other. Even if you have a child, it is impossible for you to be together in the future. You had better not harbor any illusions about her.
"The matter between Luo Ye and me is entirely decided by Luo Ye, and others have no right to interfere," Jin Ke replied coldly to Luo Yi
Twenty-five. Luo Yi frowned
Alright, tomorrow I will arrange for someone to come and conduct a paternity test for Xue'er. As for the subsequent matters, let the law handle them. Luo Yi said no more and turned to walk downstairs
"How old are you this year?" Jin Ke asked Luo Yi.
Regarding the matter of Luo Ye and Xue Er, Jin Ke is not foolish; upon hearing about Luo Yi's identity, he immediately understood what he was there to do
Isn't Xue'er only five months old?
The small bed was purchased by Luoye, the safest model available, with guardrails on all sides. When we go to class, there is no one nearby to supervise, yet Xue'er is very safe.
After the passing of his parents, Jin Ke lived here alone for five years. During these five years, he spent more than four of them in solitude, in a cold and desolate environment, until the arrival of Xue Er and Luo Ye brought new life to this home, allowing him to once again feel the warmth of family, transforming this place into a true home.
Is the crib safe? Is it alright for you to talk to me without being right next to me?" Luo Yi confirmed with Jin Ke once again. His wife had given birth to a son a year ago, and he was aware of the child's mischievousness. If the adults do not supervise properly, problems could arise at any moment.
At seventeen, you will be an adult in just one more year. It is evident that your mind should already be quite mature, so I will not beat around the bush and will speak frankly with you!" Luo Yi took a deep breath, seemingly trying to control his emotions
Jin Ke still did not make a sound
