As if she had found an outlet for her anger, Jia Yunxin immediately came over and clung to An Ran, insisting that An Ran agree to let Xiao Qing become her daughter-in-law so that no one else could take her away.
An Ran looked at Jia Yunxin, who was so shameless, and immediately thought, "Why did Li Chuan have to call her at this time, so that she could discover how cute her daughter is?"
Putting aside Li Chuan's doting fatherhood, he actually quite liked this marriage.
Firstly, because he and Jia Yunxin were already best friends, it would be wonderful for them to become in-laws. Secondly, because over time, he had observed Jia Yunxin's son and could tell he was a good boy, and his stunning good looks would definitely catch her daughter's eye.
In addition, there are more and more single women nowadays. He believes that his daughter is very charming and will not become a single woman, but he also wants to be on the safe side just in case she is not.
However, An Ran was a very understanding mother. Not wanting to go against her child's wishes, she booked him a claw machine. What she hoped for even more was that Xiao Qing and Jia Yunxin's son would gradually develop feelings for each other and get together.
This is the typical dating process that most modern young people follow.
So he played along with Jia Yunxin's fantasy: what a beautiful picture it would be if Xiao Qing and his son got together in the future!
The two adorable little ones held hands, calling out to their parents "Dad" and "Mom." They could even give each other stern criticism when the other misbehaved.
It was a story of deep affection, childhood sweethearts, and inseparable lovers.
He was bored at home before, and during his pregnancy, he was ruined by all kinds of childhood sweetheart dramas. Now he actually wants to get engaged immediately so that his daughter can have a childhood sweetheart brother to protect her when he grows up.
He was completely immersed in the role, and now he was looking at Jia Yunxin's son with the eyes one would use to look at a potential son-in-law. The son sitting opposite him clearly sensed this predatory gaze, and a chill ran down his spine.
So after saying goodbye to Jia Yunxin's family, he returned to the hotel and called his husband, relaying everything Jia Yunxin had told him to Li Chuan.
Li Chuan, who was still basking in the joy of his wife suddenly remembering him and calling him, was suddenly doused with cold water.
The words "I miss you" were about to come out, but I swallowed them back and replaced them with a particularly uncomfortable expression.
Li Chuan is a complete doting father to his daughter. He wishes he could keep his precious daughter by his side for the rest of his life, so how could he give her away so soon?
So when he heard An Ran say those words, he immediately objected. How could An Ran arrange a marriage for his young daughter?
And what did he mean by looking at An Ran's excited expression?
Is he selling his daughter?
In an instant, countless questions flooded Li Chuan's mind. Already irritated by that sentence, Li Chuan became even more troubled when he saw An Ran eloquently describing how outstanding Jia Yunxin's son was.
Why are other people's mothers so afraid that their daughters will marry the wrong person? Why are their wives so anxious about their daughters being bullied or deceived by boys?
Anran was talking incessantly on the phone about the matter, but she didn't hear a reply from Li Chuan. Then she saw Li Chuan's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot, and knew that he was angry again and was just being childish.
“Your daughter will get married sooner or later. It’s better to find someone you know well now than someone you and I don’t know at all later.” After saying that, An Ran mercilessly criticized Li Chuan for being such a doting father.
Furthermore, the complaints were laced with obvious mockery. Li Chuan, who had initially intended to appease him, became even angrier upon hearing this mockery and immediately hung up the phone.
Li Chuan hung up the phone, seemingly still angry, and then, as if remembering something, went to his daughter's room and gently coaxed her to wake up.
The sleepy-eyed daughter was woken by her father, thinking it was time for school. She was about to stretch when she got up. But upon opening her eyes, she was surprised to find it was still dark outside. After a moment of stunned silence, Xiaoqing realized it was still night. She looked at her father with great confusion, her beautiful eyes filled with a hidden sadness.
Seeing his daughter's aggrieved expression, Li Chuan felt a pang of pity. He had been so frightened that he had hurriedly woken her without considering that it was already 11 p.m. and she was long asleep.
So seeing his daughter's aggrieved expression, his heart melted. How could he do something to hurt his daughter like this?
But since she had already taught him, she couldn't hesitate any longer, so she directly stated the purpose of her visit.
“Honey, we need to stay away from boys from now on. These days, boys are all trying to trick you into leaving your parents.” Li Chuan felt even more frustrated looking at his daughter’s indifferent expression, so he continued.
“Those scumbags might hit you and yell at you in the future. If you suffer, they won’t care. They might even steal your toys, your food, and everything else, making you very sad.”
"So now we should stay far away from boys. If you see a boy trying to be friendly with you, just run him away. Don't be shy. If anything happens, Dad will handle it. Dad will always be your strong support."
After Li Chuan finished speaking, he pounded his chest with his fist to prove that he still had the strength to protect her daughter, but Xiao Qing saw it differently.
His father, staying up late at night, actually came over to specifically tell him to stay away from boys. If his father knew that he'd been playing with boys at school every day these past few days, wouldn't his expression be priceless?
Those boys weren't as bad as Dad said. They not only didn't steal his snacks or hit him, but they also gave him snacks and small gifts every day.
"Dad, you're so boring, I'm going to sleep." After saying that, Xiao Qing went back to dreaming and ignored Li Chuan, who was still standing there in a daze.
In a moment of utter helplessness, Li Chuan left Xiao Qing's bedroom without noticing anything amiss. After Li Chuan left, Xiao Qing, who had been asleep with her eyes closed, suddenly opened them and picked up the cell phone her father had bought for her from beside her pillow.
He then skillfully dialed a phone number, and after a short while, a sweet voice rang out – it was his mother's voice.
"Mom and Dad are so boring. He told me to avoid boys, but I don't think boys are as awful as Dad says. They even buy me gifts all the time." After exchanging pleasantries, the mother and daughter got to today's topic and complained about Li Chuan.
