Before Chi Shuyan could speak, Qi Zhenbai instantly took his leave so as not to further aggravate his father-in-law.
Before he left, however, Qi Zhenbai immediately took out a lot of gift boxes that had been in the trunk of the car and placed them on the table. His face didn’t change nor did he show the slightest bit of anger. He said to his future father-in-law in a calm and even temper, “Father-in-law, these are small tokens of my appreciation. You must accept them. Also, what happened last night was my fault. Don’t blame Yan Yan. Although I haven’t been with her for long, I’m sure that she is the partner I want to be with for the rest of my life. My grandfather and parents also like Yan Yan a lot!” What he was saying was that he wasn’t fooling around, but was serious about his wife. She had already met his family. At the same time, he wanted his future father-in-law to see his sincerity and good intentions.
After listening to the man in front of him, Chi Lingyan’s right eyelid twitched. When he thought of how this brat wanted to steal his daughter away, Father Chi itched to smash the gift boxes on the table in the kid’s face.
“Yan Yan, have this kid take these things away!”
Chi Shuyan also knew that her father was in a rage at that moment, so she hurriedly motioned for Qi Zhenbai to leave first. She said to her father, “Dad, it’ll be a waste not to take these. Besides, these are from your daughter’s boyfriend. Why send them away?” After a pause, Chi Shuyan continued, “Dad, no matter what, he’s a guest. He even showed us so much courtesy. I’ll send him off first and come back immediately!”
With that, she quickly ran away!
Chi Lingyan: …
Watching his daughter leave with that man surnamed Qi, Chi Lingyan’s face turned dark.
There were many people coming and going in the military district, especially the military wives.
Women loved good looks, and military wives were no exception. Qi Zhenbai’s face was simply an extremely eye-catching signboard, and a lot of people turned back to look at him.
In particular, the man had rested well last night and was no longer fatigued. His eyes were cold and deep, his gaze was dark and sharp, and his face was cold, hard and perfect.
His was a face that simply put celebrity actors and models to shame. His black trench coat accentuated his tall figure and he exuded the imposing aura of a leader. It made people afraid to look at his face, yet their gazes were drawn to it.
Because of this man, the military wives who had never greeted Chi Shuyan before took the initiative to do so now.
Of course, it was all gossipy questions as they asked if this man was her boyfriend, and they praised Qi Zhenbai for his good looks.
Chi Shuyan’s smile was stiff. She thought about how she had already laid her cards on the table in front of her father, so she didn’t deny this man’s identity as her boyfriend, and nodded repeatedly.
Qi Zhenbai was overjoyed when he heard his wife openly acknowledge his identity. The gloom from being rebuffed by his future father-in-law just now had mostly disappeared. His usually cold face was like a spring breeze and much gentler.
In the past, the man’s habitually cold face made people keep their distance. Now, when he smiled gently with that unparalleled handsome face, the group of gossipy women could only stare blankly.
A middle-aged military wife whom Chi Shuyan didn’t know suddenly stepped forward and said, “Old Chi’s daughter, right? Your boyfriend is too good. Your future children will definitely be beautiful!”
