1775 Wife, I’ll Dote on You From Now On!
She didn’t know if she felt bad about her father finding a partner, or about her teacher finding a partner.
Thinking of her teacher’s physiognomy a few days ago and of her offspring luck, Chi Shuyan felt especially conflicted.
If she wasn’t wrong, she would probably have a younger brother in the future!
Qi Zhenbai didn’t like his wife’s conflicted frown. He reached out and touched her brow, then gently patted her head and said, “Okay, Wife, don’t think too much. Didn’t you always want Dad to find a partner? He has found one now, and she’s a good person. What are you still feeling conflicted?”
“Do you think my dad… will favor boys over girls in the future?”
Chi Shuyan’s question was especially abrupt, and Qi Zhenbai was stunned. Chi Shuyan was also afraid that he would guess her selfish thoughts, so she hurriedly said, “Forget it, we’ll talk about this later. Actually, thinking about it carefully, what you say makes sense. Sister Fu is self-aware and is quite compatible with my father. I’ve also read her marriage fate. It’s a very good marriage!”
Qi Zhenbai could think even more deeply than his wife. Although she had deliberately avoided the topic of favoring boys over girls, he could make a 70 to 80% guess: His wife was just afraid that his father-in-law would have his own family, and even children, in the future, and would ignore his daughter.
Qi Zhenbai couldn’t wait for that to happen, but more than that, he didn’t want his wife to be sad. He pinched her face and smiled. “What are you thinking? Don’t you know that Father-in-law dotes on you so much?” Chi Shuyan was ashamed. The man suddenly leaned close to her ear and continued in a low voice, “Besides, even if Father-in-law has other children and ignores my wife in the future, she still has her man to dote on her.
“Wife, I’ll dote on you in the future, okay? I won’t dote on the child, but on you!”
Qi Zhenbai’s last sentence was deliberately ambiguous. The man’s warm breath tickled her ear. Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but turn her head to the side to avoid him, but the man’s last sentence made her face immediately flush red with shame.
Her cheeks burned for a long time.
Why was this man suddenly so good at saying sweet nothings?
Chi Shuyan’s usual calm was swept away, and her heart thumped so hard that it felt like it was about to jump out of her chest. She was very flustered and a bit embarrassed. She subconsciously pushed the man away and got up to go upstairs, when she heard Father Chi’s voice at the door. “Zhenbai, Yan Yan, cough cough… You’re still awake?”
Chi Shuyan looked up and saw her father standing at the door. She immediately moved her feet out of the man’s lap and got up. “Dad, you’re back?”
Qi Zhenbai didn’t expect his father-in-law to come back so soon. He hadn’t finished admiring his wife’s shy expression. Speaking of which, his wife’s shy appearance was really too cute and rare. If his father-in-law hadn’t come back now, he would have said a few more sweet words to her.
Since his father-in-law was back, he also knew that the father and daughter definitely needed to have a talk. After greeting his father-in-law, he wisely excused himself to go upstairs first to give the father and daughter some space.
After Qi Zhenbai went upstairs, Father Chi heaved a sigh of relief. He strode over to the couch and sat down opposite his daughter. He said honestly, “Yan Yan, um… Your Aunt Fu and I decided to try dating last night. I had a good impression of your Aunt Fu before. She was worried about you and turned me down. It was only when I laid my cards on the table and said that you didn’t mind me finding a partner that your Aunt Fu agreed to try dating me!”
Although they were trying to be together, the two of them had made up their minds to be serious about dating with marriage in mind. It wasn’t as simple as a young couple dating.
Speaking of which, although Father Chi was amazed by Fu Qing’s looks, he wasn’t someone who valued looks very much. When it came to marriage, character was more important.
After interacting with her for the past few days, he was really attracted to Fu Qing. Not only was she good-looking, she also had similar values and thoughts. For example, she had the same serious attitude when it came to marriage.
Chi Shuyan didn’t think as much as Father Chi, but she heard her father say “Aunt Fu.” It had only been a few days, and her teacher had become a generation older than her. Also, her teacher and her father were more than ten years apart in age. Was her father an old cow eating young grass?
Moreover, her teacher was good-looking, had a good family background, and had a good character. Why had she fallen for Chi Shuyan’s father? Although her father was also good-looking, he was really far inferior to her teacher.
Thinking about it carefully, if her father could marry her teacher, it really wouldn’t be a loss, but a huge gain.
Seeing that his daughter didn’t speak, Father Chi’s heart couldn’t help but thump and his face couldn’t help but turn pale. Father Chi probed apprehensively, “Yan Yan, are you… against me dating your Aunt Fu?”
Father Chi still cared about his daughter’s attitude the most, and didn’t want her to be unhappy. He forced a smile and said, “Yan Yan, if you don’t agree to me dating your Aunt Fu, I… I’ll tell… your Aunt Fu tomorrow!”
Although he said that, Father Chi’s face turned even paler and his eyes were a bit blank.
Chi Shuyan took in her father’s pale face and her heart ached terribly. As long as her father liked someone, how could she not agree?
Although she was a little conflicted about her teacher becoming her stepmother, she felt even worse when she saw her father’s terrible expression. In fact, putting aside her feelings of awkwardness, when she thought about it carefully, her father and her teacher were indeed very compatible. Their characters were top-notch. Her father was a very responsible person, and her teacher’s character was even better. Her family background was also very good. If her teacher hadn’t fallen for her father, how far up the social ladder would her father have been able to climb?
Moreover, the two of them had had bad partners before. Now that they had found happiness, how could she bear to stop them just because of her own selfish mindset?
Chi Shuyan immediately said, “Dad, it’s not that I don’t agree. I think you and Sister Fu are very compatible, really compatible. It’s just that when I looked at Sister Fu’s physiognomy before, not only did I see that something good is about to happen to her, I also saw her offspring luck. Dad, if you have a son in the future, you won’t forget me, right?”
