1671 Father Chi’s Stifled Heart

When Qi Zhenbai saw Qi Hao, he gave him a cold sidelong glance before he went upstairs. Qi Hao hurriedly said, “Cousin, don’t be in a hurry to leave. Let’s go upstairs together!”

Unfortunately, Qi Zhenbai ignored Qi Hao’s shout and went upstairs. After taking a few steps, he suddenly had a thought. He turned around with a cold and hard face and suddenly said, “Lower your voice. Your sister-in-law and her father are talking in the guest room upstairs. Keep it down!”

At his cousin’s words, Qi Hao hurriedly covered his mouth and didn’t dare shout. Qi Zhenbai went back to his room to wait for his wife.

At that moment, Father Chi was sitting on the couch in the guest room. Chi Shuyan spoke every now and then. Of course, as soon as she said a word, she immediately looked at Father Chi nervously. Father Chi took in his daughter’s nervous expression and listened to how she didn’t forget to speak up for Qi Zhenbai. Father Chi sighed helplessly and was disappointed. Sure enough, once his daughter found a partner, she immediately turned her back on him.

Wasn’t she already protecting that kid?

Father Chi was jealous and helpless, but his daughter had already registered her marriage with Qi Zhenbai, that rascal. What else could he say? No matter how dissatisfied he was, it was useless to disagree.

The only thing Father Chi was very glad about was that his daughter indeed had a good eye. The Qi family didn’t look down on his daughter or the Chi family, and Grandpa Qi was protective of his granddaughter-in-law.

The fact that the old man was so good to Father Chi today showed how satisfied he was with his granddaughter-in-law. Only then did Father Chi’s dissatisfaction and worry ease a lot.

In addition, Qi Zhenbai was his son-in-law. To be fair, the son-in-law his daughter had found was indeed very good. Whether it was his character, temperament or looks, he was top-notch. In addition, this son-in-law had grown up by the old man’s side. This was the most important point in Father Chi’s heart. Father Chi naturally trusted Grandpa Qi’s character and hence the grandson he had raised.

The only thing Father Chi was worried about was that his daughter wouldn’t be able to control this son-in-law. At first glance, he knew that this kid wasn’t an ordinary person. In addition, he had a face that attracted women, and his family background was too different from the Chi family’s. Father Chi couldn’t help but worry that this kid would have a change of heart later.

The relationship between the couple was good now, but what about later? After all, the two hadn’t known each other for long. What if Qi Zhenbai, this rascal, had a change of heart in the future? Wouldn’t Father Chi’s daughter be the one to suffer? What would happen to her then?

Ever since he found out that the two children had rushed to register their marriage, Father Chi really hadn’t slept well. He was afraid that his daughter would suffer in the future, and the more he thought about it, the grimmer his face became.

“Dad, Zhenbai really treats me well. You don’t have to worry about me!” Seeing her father’s dark face, Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but speak up for her man.

Chi Shuyan vaguely understood what Father Chi was worried about, but she didn’t know that he was already thinking so much and was already worried about her future divorce.

Seeing that his daughter didn’t forget to defend Qi Zhenbai, Father Chi could tell that she really liked him; it was most likely her own decision to marry that kid.

Thinking this, Father Chi couldn’t help but sigh again. He felt incomparably stifled, but calmed down a lot. Father Chi didn’t say much, but suddenly waved his hand and said gently, “Yan Yan, sit next to me. Let’s have a good chat tonight!”

“Okay, Dad!” Chi Shuyan walked over to Father Chi with a smile and sat next to him. Not to mention that she hadn’t forgotten to put in a good word for Qi Zhenbai, she also felt quite guilty. She didn’t regret getting married to her man back then, but she had probably hurt her father’s heart by being too hasty.

She was her father’s only child, and he doted on her a lot. When her father found out that she had suddenly gotten married, he would definitely have felt conflicted and uncomfortable.

Chi Shuyan lowered her eyebrows. She felt very guilty and made up her mind that if her father really lost his temper later, she would accept it obediently.

When Father Chi saw his daughter’s obedient appearance, he could only suppress his anger and not vent on her.

After a while, Chi Shuyan heard her father suddenly ask, “Was it your or that kid’s idea to get married?”

Father Chi’s eyes darkened when he asked this question. It would be fine if it was the former, but if it was the latter… a sharp light flashed in Father Chi’s eyes. Afraid that his daughter would always defend that kid, Father Chi said with a rare serious face, “Yan Yan, this is the only question I’ll ask you. Answer me honestly!”

Hearing Father Chi’s question, Chi Shuyan wasn’t surprised and immediately replied obediently, “Dad, it was my idea. Mm, then Zhenbai said yes!”

“If that kid dared say no…” Father Chi retorted angrily. Realizing what his daughter had just said, Father Chi choked, feeling helpless and stifled.

Fine, this daughter had really been raised for someone else.

After Chi Shuyan replied, she snuck a glance at her father. Seeing his indecipherable expression, Chi Shuyan hurriedly said, “Dad, whether I’m married or not, I’ll always be your daughter. Besides, isn’t it good to have a son-in-law as another kid?”

Chi Shuyan deliberately teased Father Chi, afraid that her father would be sad.

After listening to his daughter’s reply, Father Chi couldn’t be bothered to ask any more questions. Most of his dissatisfaction with that kid disappeared. After all, his daughter had been willing. As a parent, he was very sensible, but his heart really felt stifled.

Father Chi didn’t ask again after that, and only asked about their relationship. Chi Shuyan also replied obediently – his daughter’s face was rosy, and her expression was especially bright and satisfied when she mentioned Qi Zhenbai. How could he not understand that the couple indeed had a good relationship? His daughter was indeed doing well.

The father and daughter chatted until almost midnight. It was only when there was a knock on the door and a familiar male voice rang out that their conversation was interrupted. “Dad, are you asleep? Is Yan Yan still disturbing you?”
