Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Father Chi put his clothes in the washroom to wash tomorrow, before he came out. He hadn’t noticed earlier, but he now saw that the gift boxes his daughter had been holding contained things like ginseng and deer antler.
Father Chi was a little speechless. He could tell at a glance that this wasn’t his daughter’s style. He couldn’t help but be curious. “Yan Yan, who gave these to you? It’s too precious. Take these boxes back with you when you leave!”
For a moment, Chi Shuyan didn’t dare say that it was from Qi Zhenbai, and only said, “Dad, these things are good for your health. Eat more when you can!”
Father Chi was amused. “Your dad is still young. Why would I eat these things?”
It was a bottle of medicinal wine that won Father Chi’s heart.
Father Chi was very curious about who this precious thing was from. The word “boyfriend” subconsciously popped into his head, but when he thought of how his daughter was still young, he immediately rejected this answer. He couldn’t help but ask again, “Yan Yan, did you buy these valuable things or did someone give them to you?”
Chi Shuyan looked at her father’s sharp and tightly knitted eyebrows and swallowed. She didn’t know how to answer for a moment. If she said that someone had given them to her, how could an ordinary friend give her such valuable things? It would be strange if her father didn’t think too much of it. On the other hand, if she said that she had bought them, that was equivalent to denying Qi Zhenbai’s existence.
As soon as they confirmed their relations.h.i.+p, the other party had taken her back to the Qi family right away. It would be too unkind of her not to give the man a chance to make his presence known.
Chi Shuyan’s mind whirled, and she suddenly changed the subject and probed, “Dad, what do you think of me dating at this age?”
Seeing Father Chi’s sharp gaze, Chi Shuyan subconsciously added, “Dad, I’m just asking. I’m not thinking about it for real!”
Father Chi heaved a sigh of relief and said seriously, “Yan Yan, you’re still young and have just entered university. Why start dating now? We can talk about it again after you’ve graduated. I’ll keep an eye out for you when the time comes!”
To be honest, Father Chi felt that his daughter was becoming more and more beautiful. He was really worried that she would be cheated by some rascal. What if she came to grief?
It was always the woman who lost out in a relations.h.i.+p.
Moreover, his daughter was so beautiful. What Father Chi was most worried about was that his daughter would be tricked by some glib-tongued man. She was still young.
He would only be at ease after she matured in a few years.
Father Chi was also quite traditional in his thinking. He couldn’t stand couples who just fooled around before splitting up. He wanted his daughter to be with a reliable man whom she liked, and to be in a relations.h.i.+p with marriage in mind!
But the most important reason was that his daughter was still young and beautiful. How could he bear for her to be s.n.a.t.c.hed away by some brat so soon?
However, Father Chi continued, “Yan Yan, although I’m quite a traditionalist, if you really find someone you like in the future, I won’t interfere. However, you’re still young. Don’t think about this for now, and study hard!”
Chi Shuyan instantly broke out in a cold sweat for Qi Zhenbai when she heard her father’s words. She didn’t dare mention a boyfriend again, and immediately said that she would study hard.
Chi Shuyan didn’t forget about Shen Rongyin. Afraid that her father would ask about her boyfriend again, she asked, “By the way, Dad, when are you going to find me a mother?”
Chi Shuyan really hoped that her father would be able to find a companion, but it couldn’t be Shen Rongyin. She thought of the stack of information which Qi Zhenbai had given to her before. That woman was pursuing her father, and it was unclear what their current relations.h.i.+p was. Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but probe deliberately, “Dad, I ran into a Miss Shen before I came.. She’s quite pretty. Dad, do you know her?”
