Listening to the side, Ban Han Qi was also emotionally moved by those words. Even though it was someone else's family matter, this woman was once his wife. Hence, being able to see how Gu Hai was able to forgive and show tolerance to Bai Luo Yin's mother, as a father, Bai Han Qi felt gratified.

Gu Hai shifted his gaze to Bai Han Qi.

"Father, I have called you Uncle for many years. But in truth, I have regarded you as my father a lot of the times. You are my dearest elder, and the person that I deeply respect the most in this lifetime. I can still vividly remember when I followed Yin Zi to your house ten years ago and saw your circumstances for the first time. Back then, I had just left my home. I paid attention to Yin Zi, largely because of your affectionate father-and-son relationship that was within my sight but beyond my reach, as it was something... unattainable.

"I am guilty for giving you two major letdowns in this life, but please believe that there will absolutely never be a third time.

"You can use any foul or hurtful language to curse me, but please, by all means, do not take your anger out on Yin Zi because of our relationship. Just like how you said at your wedding ceremony back then, that you love your son the most, I want to reply on behalf of your son. He also loves his father the most. Today, for Yin Zi and myself, I want to return the gratitude for the past twenty years of your nurture and kindness. Please accept us once more."

After that, Gu Hai got up and walked one meter away. Then, he kneeled down with earnest and bowed twice on the floor— his head striking hard each time.

When Gu Hai had said all those words, Bai Han Qi only felt pained and moved. But as both of Gu Hai's knees hit the floor, Bai Han Qi's tears flowed down uncontrollably. He suddenly remembered the night of his wedding, the scene of Gu Hai placing Bai Luo Yin on his back before he walked out. Perhaps, from that moment on, it was destined that his son no longer belonged to him.

"Quickly get up." Bai Han Qi hastened to help Gu Hai up.

To the side, Jiang Yuan had long sobbed until her voice cracked.

"A man should have dignity and not grovel or bow down, how can you kneel just like that, huh? Even if you want to kneel, wait until the wedding day!" Bai Han Qi wiped his tears, "There is no need for you to feel guilty. If it wasn't for you back then, my son would have been dead long ago."

Once they returned to their seats, their emotions returned to normal.

Jiang Yuan spoke with a strong nasal tone. "As a matter of fact, I've met many people in the last few years and they are not that narrow-minded. The single ones or those that chose not to have a regular marriage are not flawed, it's just a type of lifestyle. There is no differentiation between right or wrong in that kind of lifestyle, it is only a matter of whether or not it is suitable for the individual. In regard to children, having an heir is just a type of entrustment— without that entrustment, we can nevertheless use something else to fill in the gap."
