"The Yuan Family... There isn't much here that I cherish, only a debt of gratitude to Uncle Huyuan that I cannot shirk. I've been at their beck and call for years, and now that I'm heading to the East Sea, there's another matter I can't let go of."
"I have a son."
With Yuan Chengdun pausing there, Li Yuexiang immediately understood. Her phoenix eyes lifted slightly, listening intently as he began to speak.
"He's my only child... I fear that once I'm in the East Sea, firstly his whereabouts will be uncertain and secondly, his safety unpredictable. Should something happen to me in the East Sea one day, my uncle Huyuan won't be able to protect him."
As his words reached this point, even the normally generous and valiant man seemed somewhat ashamed, speaking softly:
"I've heard that Yuexiang is still unwed, and, based on our past friendship, I have boldly come to ask if we could become in-laws... It would be greatly beneficial for both."
