Chi Shuyan didn’t react at first, but when she did, she choked and coughed at her father’s shocking words. She looked embarrassed and cold sweat broke out on her forehead. She hurriedly wiped it and nodded. “Dad, I know. I’ll definitely tell him.”
After giving this warning, Father Chi’s dissatisfaction with Qi Zhenbai faded significantly.
Chi Shuyan said at that moment, “Dad, right, you also have to think about what Uncle Wei and I said just now. If you really see an aunt you like, don’t worry about my feelings. Woo her first!”
The corners of Father Chi’s mouth twitched. He felt very helpless about his daughter worrying about his life. He narrowed his eyes and deliberately said, “Don’t tell me it’s because you want to hurry and marry Qi Zhenbai?”
Chi Shuyan knew that her father was deliberately teasing her, and she said, “Dad, do you think your daughter is that kind of person? Dad, how about I trick him into marrying into our family in the future?”
Father Chi spat out what he was drinking and stared at his daughter in disbelief.
Chi Shuyan hurriedly wiped the water off her father’s lips with a tissue and said, “Dad, that’s what I really think. If Qi Zhenbai doesn’t agree, then we weren’t meant to be!”
Although she did like Qi Zhenbai very much, she still felt that her father was more important than her boyfriend. She thought of how her father had gone out and died because of her in her past life. The one person she couldn’t let down in this life was her father!
For a moment, Father Chi didn’t know whether to be upset or moved by this child’s filial piety. Although he didn’t like Qi Zhenbai on the surface, he didn’t dare really dismiss his identity and regard him as an ordinary son-in-law. At the thought that his ambitious daughter wanted Old General Qi’s most promising grandson to marry into the Chi family, Father Chi’s heart shook with fright. He hurriedly waved his hand and said, “Don’t, don’t. Yan Yan, you mustn’t think like that. That wasn’t what I meant just now. I just want you to live a good life. Forget about him marrying into the family.”
Marrying into another family would be an insult to any ordinary man, let alone a man like Qi Zhenbai. There was no way Father Chi had the guts to really let Old General Qi’s grandson marry into the Chi family.
Chi Shuyan agreed on the surface, but in her heart, she felt that if her father still couldn’t find someone to take care of him, she really didn’t plan to get married. Of course, she couldn’t force Qi Zhenbai to marry into her family, but she felt that she could sound him out over this matter. If it really didn’t work out, no matter how reluctant she was, she could only bear the pain and break up with the man early on before she found someone else.
Chi Shuyan hadn’t thought about this before, but she had a lot of thoughts tonight. She didn’t know if it was because the man wasn’t sleeping on the floor, but she couldn’t sleep even in the early hours of the morning.
She was about to turn off the light and go to sleep, when her phone suddenly rang. Chi Shuyan hurriedly picked up the call. The man’s deep and familiar voice rang out. “Come downstairs!”
Chi Shuyan: …

“Wife, come downstairs!” The man’s deep voice rang out again.
Only then did Chi Shuyan realize that the man was downstairs. She got out of bed after she answered the call. She walked to the window and lifted the curtain, only to see a familiar tall figure leaning against the car downstairs. The orange light illuminated the man’s barely discernible figure.
Was this man really waiting for her downstairs?
It was so late. Was he crazy?
The man continued in his magnetic voice “Wife, come downstairs. I have something to say to you!”
