1774 Chi Shuyan’s Conflicted Feelings

It was rare that the two of them could go on a date, so Father Chi couldn’t tell her that he had run into his daughter. He also knew that Fu Qing had always turned him down because of his daughter. It was only because he had laid out his cards and said that his daughter wasn’t repulsed by him looking for someone else that she had agreed that they could try dating.

So, he didn’t dare tell her the truth that he had run into his daughter, for fear of scaring her away.

Father Chi was silent for a moment before he replied, “It’s nothing. I just saw an acquaintance and spoke for a bit.”

Father Chi rarely lied, and his ears turned red. Fu Qing didn’t see it and believed Father Chi. She nodded and said, “Oh, is the other party still here? Why don’t you have them join us?”

Fu Qing regretted the words as soon as she said them. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to treat them to a meal; it was just that everyone who came to this restaurant was a couple. Today was Valentine’s Day, and Father Chi’s acquaintance had probably come with someone. It would be a little awkward to call the two of them over.

Fortunately, Father Chi immediately waved his hand and said guiltily, “No, no need! No need!”

“Oh!”

Because she found out that her father was dating her teacher, Chi Shuyan was no longer thinking about romance and was afraid that her father would be worried about her dating her teacher. Not long after, she had the man take her home.

Qi Zhenbai didn’t care if they went home or not. However, seeing how his wife was a little gloomy, he was worried that she would suppress her emotions. He didn’t agree to go home right away, but took her window shopping.

There were many couples and passersby on the streets on Valentine’s Day. Afraid that someone would accidentally bump into his wife’s stomach, Qi Zhen simply pulled her into his arms and let his wife lean on him. The young couple didn’t let go of each other’s hands, and their good looks turned many heads.

Qi Zhenbai’s face was dark. Most people only took a few glances before they immediately looked away.

As for Chi Shuyan, she was thinking about her father and teacher, so she didn’t notice at all that they were acting too intimately in public.

But apart from them, there were also many other intimate couples out and about on Valentine’s Day, and there was no lack of people who outright embraced and kissed passionately on the streets. The young couple weren’t acting out of the ordinary, but they were too good-looking, and so attracted the curious attention of many passersby.

What made Chi Shuyan want to laugh a little was that there were also talent scouts skulking around on the streets who tried to slip Qi Zhenbai their business cards. As soon as they opened their mouths, however, Qi Zhenbai scared them away with his cold face, which chased away Chi Shuyan’s gloom, and she couldn’t help but snicker.

Seeing that his wife was finally smiling, Qi Zhenbai heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. He had heard his mother mention a few times before that pregnant women shouldn’t feel depressed.

If his wife suddenly suffered a blow because of his father-in-law’s matter, the only thing Qi Zhenbai could do was make his father-in-law and Miss Fu break up peacefully.

Chi Shuyan didn’t know that just because she was a little depressed, the man next to her was ready to disrupt her father’s happiness. After laughing, she felt that there wasn’t much to see on the streets, and suggested that they go home.

“Okay, let’s go home!” Qi Zhenbai said gently.

When the couple stopped walking, the black car that had been following them immediately drove up. The driver immediately got out of the car and opened the door for the young couple. As he did so, he said respectfully, “President Qi, Madam, please get in!”

Half an hour later, the car stopped outside the villa, and the couple got out together.

Sure enough, there was no one in the villa, and her father had yet to come back.

Chi Shuyan didn’t go upstairs, but sat in the living room and waited for her father, ready to have a good chat. As for the man next to her, she knew that he was worried about her, so she hurriedly waved her hand for him to go upstairs to do work in the study. There was no need to worry about her. “I want to wait for my dad. Go upstairs and work first. I’ll go upstairs later!”

Although Qi Zhenbai was busy, he didn’t go upstairs immediately. Instead, he sat next to his wife, put her feet on his lap, and rubbed them gently. His eyes were gentle as he said, “Are you still thinking about Dad?”

“Mm!”

“You don’t want Father-in-law to find a partner?”

“No?”

“So, you don’t agree to Father-in-law being with Miss Fu?” Qi Zhenbai asked calmly, but a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes. His gaze was fixed on his wife’s face. He had the vague sense that the crux of his wife’s disagreement about his father-in-law and Miss Fu being together was Miss Fu.

But his wife usually didn’t dislike Fu Qing, and even valued her very much. Then, why couldn’t his wife accept the relationship?

Chi Shuyan hesitated before she shook her head. She had been holding back a lot of things. Now that this man suddenly asked, she also had the desire to confide in him. “Husband, why do you think my dad fell for Sister Fu?”

It came down to the same reason: The two of them were the people most important to her, and she wanted them to be happy the most. Knowing that her father was dating Sister Fu felt like a brother dating a sister. However, she was well aware that her father wasn’t related to her teacher by blood at all.

At the end of the day, it was awkwardness and surprise that held her back. She really didn’t expect her father to be with her teacher one day, let alone for her teacher to become her stepmother. What kind of fate was this?

Not long after, the man’s deep and magnetic voice rang out. “Actually, I think Dad and Miss Fu are quite compatible.”

Seeing his wife look at him, Qi Zhenbai continued without a change in expression, “After all, this Miss Fu is self-aware. After spending several days together with her, it’s clear that there’s no issue with her character, much less with Dad’s character. His condition is also very good. Instead of finding an unreliable partner, it’s better to find someone who is self-aware and who is reliable. Besides, I think Dad has quite deep feelings for her!”
