Zheng Xinyi and Cheng Haoyu looked at each other, then looked at Zhao Yuenan in surprise without saying a word.
"Everyone is standing here in a daze. Xinyi and I bought a lot of vegetables. Auntie, I will make breakfast for you myself." Zhao Yuenan interrupted the awkward situation, took Liu Yun's arm, and said with a smile.
"Okay, okay." Liu Yun patted her hands affectionately and said with a smile.
Although the two children's high-sounding reasons convinced the elders on both sides, Li Yi could see that something was wrong with Zhao Yuenan, so he followed her into the kitchen.
"Dad, just wait in the lobby. I'll be there in a moment." As he spoke, Zhao Yuenan had already started preparing to wash the vegetables.
Li Yi stepped forward and said seriously, "My dear, is there something on your mind?"
Zhao Yuenan smiled slightly: "Dad, you just love to daydream. What worries do I have?"
"Is there something wrong between you and Huang Lei? I heard from Captain Cheng that you have always been particularly fond of Huang Lei in the army..."
"Dad, even if I like Huang Lei, you don't have to be so anxious to marry me off, right? You and I have just recognized each other as father and daughter, and so many things have happened recently. You have to give me some time to catch my breath!" Zhao Yuenan interrupted him and finished speaking in one breath.
"My daughter, is it really just like that?" Li Yi asked in a questioning tone.
"Dad, everything I said is true. If anything happens to me, I will never hide it from you. Just put your mind at ease! Okay, don't stand here anymore. Go to the lobby and wait. Breakfast will be ready soon." Zhao Yuenan said as she pushed him out of the kitchen.
Although Zhao Yuenan said so, Li Yi still felt something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. This was probably the legendary father-daughter connection!
"Huang Lei, why are you still standing there? Go to the kitchen and help Zhao Yuenan." Liu Yun urged.
Huang Lei nodded slightly and turned to go into the kitchen. At the kitchen door, he happened to meet Li Yi who was pushed out by Zhao Yuenan. He glanced at Zhao Yuenan and called out a little embarrassedly: "Uncle Li, you go and rest. I will help Doctor Zhao."
Li Yi said nothing. He glanced at Zhao Yuenan, who kept waving her hands at him. Then he said, "Okay, I'll leave the kitchen to you. I, an old man, won't be a light bulb here anymore."
After Li Yi left, Zhao Yuenan turned and went into the kitchen and continued to wash her vegetables.
Huang Lei froze in place, reaching out to touch the back of his head. The atmosphere was a little awkward, and he looked around: "How can I be better?"
"Help me cut these tomatoes." Zhao Yuenan pointed to the tomatoes that had just been washed and said.
Huang Lei obediently went to cut the tomatoes, glanced at Zhao Yuenan who was washing the vegetables carefully as if nothing had happened, and said softly from the bottom of his heart, "Dr. Zhao, thank you."
"No need. Actually, I understand what you are thinking. Even if I, Zhao Yuenan, like you, I will not force you to marry me. Unless one day you really fall in love with me and marry me willingly, I will never force you." Zhao Yuenan said seriously.
Huang Lei looked at her in surprise. He really didn't expect Zhao Yuenan to have changed so much. "Doctor Zhao, you have saved my life many times. Logically, I, Huang Lei, should repay you."
"I did all that willingly, but unfortunately, no matter how well I do, I still can't get into your heart." Zhao Yuenan said with regret.
