Gu Xueting rubbed his chin on the top of her head for a few times, "Don't worry, leave it to me when the time comes."

He was confident that he could coax Qing Bao and the others into submission.

It was another matter that made him feel unsure.

Soon, he will meet Zhizhi's father, his father-in-law.

How will his father-in-law treat him then? Will he be dissatisfied with him? "Zhizhi, tell me more about your father-in-law."

Shen Yizhi couldn't help but laugh when he saw him looking like he was facing a formidable enemy. He touched his face and said, "My father is very easy to get along with and will never embarrass you. Besides, we both have Qing Bao. Are you afraid that my father will separate us?"

However, Gu Xueting was not comforted by these words.

It was because of Qingbao that he was even more worried.

After all, he had this child with her during an outbreak in Shanghai, and he didn't know about the existence of the mother and child for three years. He didn't fulfill his responsibilities as a father at all.

Not to mention his father-in-law, he himself couldn't forgive himself for being like this.

While the two were talking, they arrived at Kunling Island.

Shen Yizi made a hand seal, and the barrier on the island opened. Xiaoman flew in with the two of them.

The moment he entered, the barrier behind him closed automatically.

As the person who set up the barrier, Shen Jianghan can always sense the situation on the barrier side.

He was delighted by Shen Yizhi's return.

But why is there another man? And why is he so close to Yibao?

What's the situation with that man? Could he be Qing Bao's father? !

After guessing this possibility, Shen Jianghan immediately lost his composure.

Send a message to Shen Yizhi: "Don't rush back. I told Qingbao and the others that you went to the sea to catch big fish. Go catch a few big fish first, so that you won't have trouble reporting to Qingbao and the others."

Shen Yizhi took Gu Xueting to go fishing.

Before entering the water, Gu Xueting released Xiaoman and let it move freely on the island.

Before leaving, Xiaoman lowered her body, put her head close to Shen Yizi and rubbed it, very intimately.

The underwater world is colorful, quiet yet lively.

This was Gu Xueting’s first time going into the sea, and everything in the sea was new to him.

Shen Yizhi took him for a spin in the sea and introduced him to various seafood that are rarely seen on land.

The two of them had so much fun that it was already dark when they came out.

But this time they were lucky, not only did they catch the rare fish, but they also touched abalone shells.

The tilapia is a large fish with one head and ten bodies. The meat is tender and refreshing, with a faint orchid fragrance and tastes excellent.

Even someone like Shen Yizhi, who has lived on the island for more than ten years, has only eaten it twice.

Thinking about those two experiences now, she still drools.

Abalone shells, the largest of which are as big as washbasins, have a long, thick piece of flesh outside the shell that is stretchable but cannot be retracted into the shell. Instead, it is dragged outside like an elephant's trunk and can be as long as thirty or forty centimeters.

The meat of the elephant trunk is very delicious and easy to prepare. Cut it off, rinse it with boiling water, peel off the rough and wrinkled skin on the outside, then cut it into thin slices and stir-fry. Turn it over a dozen times and it will be almost cooked.

It tastes a bit crispy and chewy, a bit like chicken gizzards, and is perfect for eating with wine.

This time, the two returned with a full load.

They arrived at the valley on the Tianzhou boat and Shen Yizhi took Gu Xueting inside.

Both of them were nervous in their own way, and for a while they didn't speak, just holding each other's hands tightly.

The lights in the valley were all lit up, and the trees and grass were all bright.

In the pavilion, Qing Bao seemed to sense something. He looked out suddenly and saw his father and mother walking towards him.

"Daddy! Mommy!" Qing Bao rushed out like a little cannonball.

Yuanbao and Nian Nian are not far behind.

Shen Yizhi and Gu Xueting both squatted down, opened their arms, took the three little darlings who rushed over into their arms, and kissed them one by one.

Holding the babies' sweet little bodies again, Shen Yizi sighed with contentment.

It was the first time I was separated from them for such a long time, and I really missed her so much! However, compared to her, Qing Bao and the other two were obviously more enthusiastic about Gu Xueting.

She kept clinging to him and asking him all kinds of questions.

Shen Yizi couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

"Mom caught a really big fish, look!"

She took out the fish, which was still alive, and as soon as it came out, all ten fish bodies jumped and flapped at the same time.

Qing Bao: "Wow, what a big fish!"

Yuanbao: "Why does this fish have ten bodies?"

Nian Nian: "So much meat! Roast this one, boil this one, make meatballs out of this one, fry this one..."

She arranged all ten fish bodies.

He is indeed a little foodie.

Shen Jianghan: "Yibao, go cook, boy, come here."

The happy reunion time passed and the tense trial arrived.

Shen Yizhi gave Gu Xueting a comforting and encouraging look, Don't be afraid, I'm here! Gu Xueting stood up, his right leg occupied by Qingbao, his left leg held by Yuanbao, and Nian Nian lying on his back. He led the three little meat dumpling and stepped into the stone pavilion step by step.

Shen Yizhi gave his father a look, letting him figure it out himself, and then took the ingredients to the cabin to prepare them.

Shen Jianghan received her gaze and snorted in his heart. As expected, girls are extroverted. She seemed afraid that he would bully the person she brought back.

The look in his eyes when he looked at Gu Xueting became more and more dissatisfied.

The more dissatisfied he became, the heavier the pressure he released became.

They pressed down towards Gu Xueting layer by layer.

However, Gu Xueting walked forward without changing his expression and kowtowed without hesitation: "My son-in-law, Gu Xueting, greets my father-in-law."

He had knelt before heaven, earth, and his parents. Apart from that, Gu Xueting had never even kneeled to the emperor. However, at this moment, he was willing to kneel to the man in front of him.

Qing Bao and the other two thought he was playing some game with Shen Jianghan, so they knelt down and imitated him, and even imitated his way of speaking.

Shen Jianghan: “…”

The tense expression almost broke.

He tried to show his dignity as a grandfather: "Qingbao, go and see if mother's fish is ready."

Qing Bao and the other two looked at him, then at the kneeling Gu Xueting, and finally succumbed to the temptation of delicious food and ran out of the pavilion.

After the three little ones left the pavilion, Shen Jianghan snorted coldly and continued to increase his pressure.

Gu Xueting's originally straight back was bent by the pressure.

He gritted his teeth and slowly straightened up, not wanting Shen Jianghan to look down on him.

After an unknown amount of time, Shen Jianghan withdrew his pressure and said, "Okay, get up, or Yibao will see you and think I'm bullying you."

Gu Xueting bowed his head and said, "Thank you, father-in-law."

He changed from kneeling to sitting, cross-legged sitting below Shen Jianghan.

The word "father-in-law" sounded really harsh to Shen Jianghan, but for Qing Bao's sake, he had to admit it.

"You've been poisoned?"
