Regarding Mei Wanying's assessment, Pei Yan put on a proud air. "Whatever you say, goes. I'll listen to you."
'So what if I'm a stubborn mule?'
'Besides, Ling is pretty stubborn too. With her in the family, this father and daughter pair will have something in common.'
Thinking of his daughter, the look in Pei Yan's eyes softened.
'Ling is cute even when she's being stubborn. No wonder Ah Yin treasures her so much.'
'As the saying goes, when you love someone, you love everything about them,' the man thought. 'Ah Yin's love for Ling is just another way of loving me.'
'The more she dotes on our daughter, the higher my own status will become.'
'I'll rise in status because of my daughter!'
Mei Wanying said, "Then take me with you."
Pei Yan refused without a moment's hesitation. "No."
Mei Wanying was not the least bit surprised by this.
