Ye Zhiwei awkwardly looked away.

This subtle ambiguity made Ye Zhiwei a little embarrassed, especially since Ye Qingcheng was still there.

Ye Qingcheng laughed and said, "So you have someone you like. It's normal for someone your age to have someone they like."

As he spoke, Ye Qingcheng turned the topic to Ye Zhiwei and asked, "What about our Zhiwei? Do you have someone you like? There are so many outstanding boys at Yanda University. If you like someone, you can talk to your dad. Dad can give you some advice. You're in university now. Before, I was worried that you would neglect your studies. Now that you have someone you like, you can be bold and not be as restrained as you were in high school."

Ye Zhiwei really didn't expect Ye Qingcheng to be so interested in her love life. He not only talked to her about it, but also asked Ji Shuli, who was standing next to her, "Has our Zhiwei been getting close to any boys lately? Has he told you about them?"

Ji Shuli: We're very close, haha, this guy who's been working so hard to get his hands on cabbages is sitting right in front of you.

Ji Shuli inwardly grumbled, but under Ye Zhiwei's threatening gaze, he smiled and said, "Uncle, why would my little cousin tell me about her love life? She used to just like shopping and eating, and her love life was like a blank sheet of paper. Now that she's in college, even if she's just starting to experience love, she'd probably be too embarrassed to tell me."

Hearing what Ji Shuli said, Ye Qingcheng was indeed interested in Ye Zhiwei's love life, and asked, "Then our Zhiwei must be quite popular, right? I remember once when I was in elementary school, I went to pick Zhiwei up from school by chance, and a boy in her class seemed to call me 'Dad' after he found out that I was Zhiwei's father."

This was quite an amusing incident, Ye Qingcheng recounted with a hearty laugh. It seemed that from the moment they got into the car, Ye Qingcheng, who had initially appeared ready to lecture Ye Zhiwei, was now in a very good mood.

Especially now, when Ye Zhiwei is mentioned as a child, people seem happy to talk about it for a while.

Jiang Jianian was also very interested in this topic and asked, "Was she popular when she was a child?"

Ye Qingcheng pointed at Ji Shuli and said, "Not only do her peers like to play with her, but it seems that several of Shuli's friends also give in to her. The little girl was very perceptive even when she was young. At the beginning, her relationship with Shuli wasn't as good as it is now. Shuli didn't have much patience when taking care of children. I asked him to help look after Zhiwei, but he would leave Zhiwei aside and invite his friends over to play games. Back then, Zhiwei didn't like to play with her peers and only liked to follow Shuli. When she sensed that Shuli was getting impatient, she would start calling him 'brother, brother,' her words were so sweet. I don't know why, but later Shuli took Zhiwei with him for everything."

Ji Shuli recalled some of his little cousin's childhood memories and said with a smile, "Uncle, you forgot an important reason. My little cousin was beautiful when she was little. She dressed beautifully and never got dirty while playing. She was always clean and pretty, just like a little princess. She was beautiful and knew how to be charming. Who could bear to refuse her?"

Ye Zhiwei felt embarrassed by what was said. Although she looked like a child at that time, she was not a child in her mind. She really didn't want to play house with her peers. The reason she clung to Ji Shuli to play was because when Ji Shuli took her out, he would usually order a lot of delicious food and fun things for her and play games with his friends. She only needed to be quiet and well-behaved like a little adult, without making a fuss or causing trouble. Occasionally, she would act cute and ask for whatever she wanted, and Ji Shuli would buy it for her.

“It’s just that my little cousin and I are more distant now. When she’s in a good mood, she calls me ‘cousin’ a few times, but when she’s in a bad mood, she calls me by my full name. She’s also more mischievous than when she was little, and she can threaten people. She’s not as clingy or innocent and cute as she used to be.” Ji Shuli glanced at Ye Zhiwei.

Ye Zhiwei immediately warned, "Ji Shuli!"

"Uncle, look at him, threatening people again—"

Ye Qingcheng laughed beside him, and Jiang Jianian also smiled, giving Ye Zhiwei a deep look.

Ye Zhiwei was so embarrassed by the teasing that she couldn't sit still any longer. She coughed and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to see if there's any fruit I can get for you."

My little cousin is prone to giving herself away when she's flustered or embarrassed. She's only been here a few times, yet she's not only familiar with the living room but also the kitchen? And she even knows there's fruit in the kitchen? Jiang Jianian doesn't seem like someone who likes to eat fruit.

Ji Shuli shook her head, pinching her brow, and took the initiative to help Ye Zhiwei out of the predicament. She said to Jiang Jianian, "My little cousin is probably too embarrassed to stay any longer, so she just made up an excuse to run away. Go help her. She's probably lost and can't even find the kitchen. By the way, if there's any fruit cut out in the kitchen, I'd really like to have some fruit too."
