Everyone knows that Xiao Qing and Huo Siyun's relationship has evolved from just good friends to even closer friends who can talk about anything. You could even call them childhood sweethearts.
Jia Yunxin and An Ran were very happy, but they knew that Li Chuan would be very angry if he found out, so they tacitly chose to keep it from him.
But as time goes on, Li Chuan will discover the clues himself.
Just like today at dinner, Xiaoqing was talking about the strange and happy things that happened to her at school, as usual.
He vividly recounted to his parents the scene of his teacher making him eat dragon fruit that day. Upon hearing about eating dragon fruit, his father's hand, which was about to pick up some food, suddenly froze in mid-air.
Li Chuan knew that his daughter had never liked dragon fruit since she was little. It was because when she was little, he joked that the color of dragon fruit looked very much like the color of animal blood.
From then on, my daughter, who used to be able to eat a couple of bites of dragon fruit, never touched it again, and dragon fruit never appeared in our house again.
Afterwards, Li Chuan always tried to restore the image of dragon fruit in his daughter's heart, telling her that eating dragon fruit was beneficial to her health. However, the memories from that time were still vivid in Xiao Qing's mind, so no matter how Li Chuan coaxed her, An Ran would not eat a single bite of dragon fruit.
Because of this incident, Li Chuan regretted it for a long time. He never expected that the school would let his precious daughter eat dragon fruit. He wondered if he had eaten any.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Qing's next words made Li Chuan lose his appetite.
Hearing Xiao Qing happily telling Li Chuan and An Ran how Huo Siyun cleverly helped her eat the dragon fruit on her plate that morning and even escaped the teacher's inspection.
Not only did they escape the inspection, but they also received a personal reward from the teacher and a small red flower later on.
Xiao Qing was still enthusiastically recounting her leisurely experiences at noon to An Ran, completely unaware that Li Chuan had already put down his chopsticks and was deep in thought.
These past few days, it seems that Huo Siyun has become a new topic of conversation at the dinner table, in addition to the three of them. Moreover, Huo Siyun has been appearing at the dinner table more and more frequently; for example, today her daughter was extremely happy, even speaking of Huo Siyun with an adoring gaze.
This made Li Chuan very angry.
It feels like I've been raising this cabbage for years, only to have it suddenly eaten by some random pig.
Li Chuan had considered that Xiao Qing might get married in the future, but the person she chose had to be approved by him before they could continue their relationship. However, it seemed that this Si Yun was completely unacceptable to her.
Since she couldn't even win the heart of that master, she's now trying every means to steal her precious daughter away. How could Li Chuan, a doting father, tolerate this?
But seeing Xiao Qing and An Ran still happily chatting about their day at the dinner table, he silently picked up his chopsticks again and ate his meal as if nothing had happened.
Because Xiao Qing and An Ran were discussing what had happened that day, they didn't notice Li Chuan's unusual behavior, and naturally, they didn't discover anything unusual about him.
However, after finishing their meal and playing some parent-child games, Li Chuan returned to his room and discussed with An Ran the future of Xiao Qing's situation.
Li Chuan suggested that, as a man, he should take on the responsibility of picking his daughter up from get off work every day.
However, An Ran was initially firmly opposed, because he was afraid that Li Chuan would discover Xiao Qing's relationship with Huo Siyun. But he couldn't resist Li Chuan's repeated requests.
Furthermore, Li Chuan's request was reasonable; as a father, it was his duty to pick up his daughter from school after work. Coupled with An Ran's fear, this attitude made her hesitant, so she nodded.
But as soon as she turned her head, An Ran immediately sent a message to Jia Yunxin, telling him to take their son to school himself tomorrow, while Li Chuan would personally take their daughter to school.
And so Jia Yunxin and An Ran went underground.
Because of Li Chuan's sudden request to pick them up and drop them off, Xiao Qing and Huo Siyu were unable to go to and from school normally, but they remained very close at school.
It could even be said that because they missed the opportunity to spend time together during their commute to and from school, they cherish every moment they spend together at school all the more.
To this extent, Li Chuan also contributed to the development of their relationship.
Huo Siyun was also very sensible. When Li Chuan appeared, she immediately moved away from Xiao Qing's side. She knew that Li Chuan disliked her. Although this dislike came for no reason, she still chose to respect Xiao Qing's father.
Since he can't change Li Chuan's opinion of him now, he can only secretly play with Xiao Qing. Huo Siyun is also studying hard every day, trying to become better so that one day Li Chuan will accept her.
Despite their carefulness during this time, Li Chuan still managed to discover them.
Li Chuan was supposed to have a meeting that day, but seeing that his daughter's dance class was about to end, he postponed the meeting and drove to pick her up to go home.
But when he drove up to the tutoring center, he saw Xiao Qing and Huo Siyun walking out of the classroom hand in hand. Huo Siyun had never shown any talent for dance before.
So at almost the same time, Li Chuan became even more certain of his feelings for Huo Siyun. He immediately opened the car door, got out, and pulled his beloved daughter to his side, picking her up in his arms.
The appearance of Li Chuan suddenly plunged them, who were having a very pleasant conversation, into awkwardness and fear.
Xiao Qing was slightly better, but when Huo Siyun saw Li Chuan's horrified look, she involuntarily shuddered and sneezed.
Li Chuan didn't say much to Huo Siyan, but after glaring at her twice, he carried Xiao Qing back to the car.
Li Chuan's strides were too large, and the distance was too close, so Xiao Qing didn't even have time to say goodbye to Huo Siyun. Er Hui's hand, which was in mid-air, stopped in place before he could even wave it out.
Xiao Qing looked at her father, whose face was very pale, and didn't say much. She just sat quietly in the passenger seat, staring at the road ahead and the trees around her.
Upon returning home, Li Chuan immediately confronted An Ran and began to argue with her.
She asked An Ran why she didn't tell him that Huo Siyuan had transferred to Xiao Qing's class. Why did she have to keep such a big thing from her? Why didn't she tell him?
You'll find that after things were exposed, he showed no remorse, but simply looked directly into Li Chuan's eyes and told him what was going on.
Because I know that if I tell you, you'll get angry and won't allow our daughter to be friends with Huo Siyun. And you'll interfere more with our daughter's friendships.
