Afraid they would offer more reasons to persuade her, Yunyi said, "Also, my adoptive parents and my grandfather love me dearly; they've given me all their love. Although I'm not a Chu Family member by birth, I can't just walk away from them without a second thought. So, while I'm willing to acknowledge our biological connection, I won't change my surname. As long as I am here, I represent the continuation of the Chu Family."
Upon hearing this, the Ye family fell silent. Yunyi wasn't wrong; forcing her to revert to the Ye surname would indeed be unfair to the Chu Family. After all, Shi Jingfang had previously told Ye Bingyu about Yunyi's general situation, and he had personally investigated it. The Chu Family truly treasured Yunyi like a gem, so the Ye family knew they couldn't afford to be obstinate.
