If Zhu Bocheng wasn’t any more familiar with Zhenbai’s voice, he really wouldn’t have believed that it was Zhenbai who was asking this stupid question.
Zhu Bocheng’s first reaction was to gloat that Zhenbai, this kid, finally had his day!
Zhu Bocheng didn’t hide the gossipy excitement and schadenfreude in his tone at all as he hurriedly asked, “What? Zhenbai, you and Cousin met her father? Your future father-in-law is opposed to you? He’s unsatisfied with you? What did you do to make him opposed? Or does he dislike you because you’re too old?”
Zhu Bocheng asked a series of gossipy questions and gloated even more.
Qi Zhenbai simply hung up. Why had he been depressed enough to call Zhu Bocheng? In the end, Qi Zhenbai decided to do something his future father-in-law would like. He started the car and went straight to the Wei family, which had the closest relationship with his future father-in-law.
On the other side, Chi Shuyan pursed her lips and used the mirror on her phone to look at her lips a few times. Although they were a little red, they weren’t swollen, so no one could tell that she had been kissing. Only then did she heave a sigh of relief.
When she returned to her home on the third floor, she saw her father come out of his room. Chi Shuyan called out guiltily, “Dad!”
Chi Lingyan snorted coldly. “You still know to call me dad?”
Chi Shuyan hurriedly went forward and took the initiative to take her father’s arm. Her eyes swept over the untouched gift boxes on the table. It seemed that although her father was harsh on the surface, he was soft-hearted, and there was room for mediation.
Seeing his daughter’s expression, how could Father Chi not know what she was thinking? He snorted coldly and said, “You don’t have to bring that kid over anymore. I won’t acknowledge it even if he comes! My daughter is so young, but that kid isn’t young anymore, right?”
Chi Shuyan choked and hurriedly put in a good word for the man. “Dad, he’s actually not that old. He’s only eight years older than me.”
“Eight years? Isn’t eight years enough? That Qi kid has the nerve to eat young grass!” Father Chi said with a dark face.
As Chi Shuyan wiped the cold sweat off her forehead on Qi Zhenbai’s behalf, her father suddenly said, “Yan Yan, you’re still young. You can’t just look at a man’s appearance. Who knows, that man might look good on the outside but is rotten on the inside!”
“Dad, Zhenbai isn’t that kind of person. He already took me to meet his grandfather, father, and mother. At that time, I felt that he was quite sincere, and that he’s a good person. He’s also especially good to me. He’s the one who cooks, washes, and does everything at home!” Chi Shuyan was only focused on putting in a good word for the man, but completely forgot that she had leaked important information. By the time she realized it, her father’s expression wasn’t right, and it was too late to smooth things over.
“Are you living with that kid?” Chi Lingyan’s face couldn’t be any more gloomy at that moment. He didn’t want to interfere too much in his child’s private affairs, but his daughter was still young. If his daughter was slightly older, he wouldn’t have asked.
Chi Shuyan had a strong desire to live, and subconsciously shook her head.
How could Chi Lingyan not understand his daughter? As soon as his daughter lied, he knew that the two of them had already moved in together, and that kid had taken advantage of her countless times. His face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
The next second, Chi Shuyan heard her father say coldly, “Call that kid surnamed Qi and tell him to take away these gift boxes!”
Chi Lingyan paused and thought of the various expensive gifts that his daughter had brought with her when she came. Without waiting for Chi Shuyan to speak, he asked coldly, “Was that kid the one who prepared those gifts?” Seeing his daughter’s guilty expression, Chi Lingyan immediately said, “Have him take all those gifts away immediately! Our Chi family doesn’t care for them!”
