Li Yuan's expression changed immediately.
Luo Ling was also surprised to see Li Yuan here, and asked in astonishment, "It's you?"
How did you get here?
Li Yuan silently grasped Ji Zhinan's hand: "This is my daughter!"
She then glanced resentfully at Gu Yibei beside her and said, "This is my daughter's slut!"
"..."
Gu Yibei: Father-in-law, this is unacceptable. I brought your wife here, and you not only want to take my wife away, but you also insulted me in front of both my wife and your wife.
*Sobbing*
Upon receiving Gu Yibei's slightly aggrieved gaze, Li Yuan immediately gave him a death stare without saying a word.
That son of a bitch Gu Yibei is definitely doing this on purpose! Why didn't he say anything when Luo Ling was here too?
It's a shame he dressed so casually!
Gu Yibei: "..."
……………
This was the first time the family of four had officially met, but the atmosphere... was incredibly awkward.
Where was the arrogance he had when he dissed Gu Yibei? He hadn't said a word since entering the hotel, and had just been quietly serving food to his precious daughter.
Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Gu Yibei tried to speak several times, but was glared at by Li Yuan several times.
Unable to withstand the death stare of his young father-in-law, Gu Yibei silently shut his mouth.
In the end, Luo Ling spoke first. She looked at Li Yuan and his daughter and smiled, "I didn't expect you two to be father and daughter."
The main reason is that Li Yuan is too well-preserved; he doesn't look like someone who has a daughter in her twenties at all.
Li Yuan quietly replied, "It's just that I found my wife early."
"..."
Gu Yibei remained silent, as did Ji Zhinan.
Luo Ling simply smiled and said, "You and your wife are truly blessed to have such an outstanding daughter as Nan Nan and such an outstanding son-in-law as Yi Bei."
She hadn't expected that this man was already married and had such a grown daughter.
Luo Ling's eyes dimmed for a moment, but she still managed to force a smile of blessing.
"..." The atmosphere cooled down again when the topic was brought up.
Li Yuan used serving chopsticks to place a piece of meat on Luo Ling's plate and replied calmly, "Nan Nan's mother had an accident not long after Nan Nan was born."
Luo Ling was stunned, clearly unaware that this would happen.
"sorry."
"It's nothing." Li Yuan picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank the red wine in it in one gulp.
Luo Ling also politely took a sip of wine, picked up her chopsticks to eat some food, but when she saw the meat on the plate, she immediately looked up at Li Yuan.
This man...
Luo Ling has a little quirk when she eats, or you could say it's a habit she's always had: she never eats fatty meat or skin. There's no particular reason; she just doesn't eat it.
She was so shocked to hear the news of his wife's accident that she didn't pay attention to the food on her plate until now. She only noticed now that there were several pieces of lean meat on the plate, without any fat or skin.
She looked at the dining table again, where almost every piece of the dish had fat or skin, meaning that everything on her plate had been carefully selected by him before being given to her.
Luo Ling's heart skipped a beat.
The meal lasted for several hours. After finishing, the four of them came out of the private room. Li Yuan and Luo Ling walked in front, while Gu Yibei silently put his arm around Ji Zhinan and walked behind.
Luo Ling clutched her bag tightly in both hands, silently following beside Li Yuan...
"I……"
Luo Ling was about to speak when Li Yuan spoke first.
"It's getting late, let me take you home." The man's dark eyes stared intently at her: "It's not safe for you to go home alone."
Luo Ling's eyes lit up noticeably, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly.
