Everyone was curious to see the small bag in Dong Zhiping’s mother’s hand.
"Mom, what’s this? A brilliant strategy of Zhuge Liang?" Dong Zhiping teased.
"Shoo, what’s inside is sothing good." Dong Zhiping’s mother walked over, handing the small bag to Qin Yi, "You can refuse the money, but you must take this."
Qin Yi, curious, opened the bag and took out what was inside. It turned out to be a peace charm, not just any ordinary charm, but woven with real gold threads.
"Giving a gift should co from the heart, don’t just brush people off with money. After the mishap involving Xiao Rui last ti, I bought this peace charm and even had it consecrated in a temple. Xiao Rui has one, and I kept this one for Qin Yi."
Qin Yi was quite moved. No one had ever given him sothing like this before. While his safety didn’t rely on this little charm, the sentint behind it was invaluable.
"Qin Yi, do you like it?" Dong Zhiping’s mother asked with a smile.
Qin Yi nodded, "Thank you, Auntie, I will accept the peace charm."
"As long as you like it, as long as you like it... This peace charm worn on the body can keep you safe and sound."
Xiao Rui, with her round eyes, said in a childish voice, "Big brother, Xiao Rui also has this pretty flower."
Qin Yi patted her little head, "This thing can keep Xiao Rui safe and sound."
"Grandma says the sa, so Xiao Rui always wears it. Big brother should wear it too, and be safe and sound."
Qin Yi nodded with a smile and kept the peace charm close.
"Dear, do I have one?" Dong Huaiyu asked hopefully.
"Go drink your pot-cleaning water."
"Uh..." Dong Huaiyu imdiately deflated.
Everyone couldn’t help but chuckle.
Qin Yi realized that in the Dong Family, the won were strong and the n gentle. It wasn’t that the n were inept, they just exerted their abilities outside the ho, coming back only to be good husbands and fathers.
A person’s temperant can be seen from the family atmosphere. Qin Yi recalled Xia Yanbing saying that Dong Zhiping had a good reputation, aning he was worth befriending.
"Qin Yi, have dinner here today. Although Er Dan’s tea is no good, his cooking skills are unmatched, you must try it," Dong Zhiping’s mother said enthusiastically.
Er Dan?
Qin Yi was stunned for a mont, instinctively looking at Dong Huaiyu.
Dong Huaiyu’s old face flushed red, "Dear, can you stop calling that na?"
"Why can’t I? The na is so endearing?"
Dong Huaiyu was speechless, "Whatever makes you happy, dear."
Dong Huanyu wasn’t born with a golden spoon. He originally ca from the countryside with little education but had a knack for business and excellent cooking skills. It’s said his ancestors were imperial chefs, and by leveraging his culinary talent, he carved out a place in Yinfeng City, establishing the current Dong Family.
Qin Yi laughed, "Alright, I’m fortunate to taste Uncle’s cooking today."
To be honest, Qin Yi really liked this kind of family atmosphere.
"Alright then, Zhiping, you and Yutong keep Qin Yi company. Your dad and I will prepare the al. Qin Yi, do you have any dietary restrictions?"
Qin Yi laughed, "No, I eat everything."
"That’s good. You all chat then."
Dong Huaiyu and his wife went to prepare dinner.
"You two chat, I’ll take Xiao Rui outside to play," Yan Yutong wisely left space for the two n.
"Big brother, Xiao Rui will co find you to play later."
Qin Yi smiled and nodded.
"I’m really envious of you!" Qin Yi laughed.
Dong Zhiping was slightly taken aback but imdiately understood Qin Yi’s aning and laughed, "I’m indeed lucky. I started dating Yutong in our freshman year, got married after graduation, and eventually had Xiao Rui. Sotis, I often think if I saved the Milky Way in my previous life."
"You surely did," Qin Yi laughed.
The two were chatting away when Xiao Rui rushed in from outside, "Daddy, big brother, Xiao Rui’s kite got stuck in a tree?"
"You sit for a mont, I’ll go check it out," Dong Zhiping said.
"Let’s go together."
Dong Zhiping pushed Qin Yi outside. Yan Yutong had originally been flying a kite with Xiao Rui on the grass, but it accidentally got stuck in a tree. This ornantal tree wasn’t too high or too low; the trunk was smooth, and the branches fragile, so people couldn’t climb it. The ladder couldn’t reach either.
Dong Zhiping tried to hook it down, but after several attempts, he failed.
"Xiao Rui, Daddy will just buy you another kite."
Xiao Rui was a bit reluctant; it was a kite she really liked because it had little cats printed on it.
"Daddy promises to buy Xiao Rui the exact sa one, okay?"
Xiao Rui instinctively looked at Qin Yi, "Big brother, can you help Xiao Rui get the kite down?"
Yan Yutong was a bit embarrassed. While children speak without filter, Qin Yi was sitting in a wheelchair, and she feared he might be offended, so she quickly said, "Xiao Rui, should Mommy take you to play on the seesaw?"
Qin Yi smiled and said, "Let try."
Dong Zhiping and Yan Yutong were puzzled. How could Qin Yi try in his condition?
Qin Yi raised his hand, transforming it into a claw. A terrifying suction erupted from his palm, distorting the air. The entire ornantal tree seed about to be uprooted, swaying precariously. With a crack, the branch holding the kite snapped and flew directly toward Qin Yi.
Qin Yi reached out to catch the branch. The wind instantly died down, as if it had never appeared.
Dong Zhiping and Yan Yutong were dumbfounded, faces full of shock. What kind of ability was this?
To ensure the kite stayed intact, Qin Yi could only break the entire branch, untangle the line from the branch, and hand the kite to Xiao Rui.
"Wow, big brother is amazing, even better than Daddy, getting it down in one go." Xiao Rui, being young, had no idea how astounding the previous scene was; she was just happy her favorite kite was down.
Dong Zhiping had witnessed the terrifying scene where Qin Yi made things levitate with a burst of anger, but this ti he was utterly shocked beyond belief.
Yan Yutong was completely stunned, the earlier scene surpassing her understanding.
"Big brother, can you fly a kite with Xiao Rui?" Xiao Rui eagerly looked at Qin Yi, saying in a childish voice.
Qin Yi smiled and nodded, "Does Xiao Rui want to fly?"
"I do, but Xiao Rui doesn’t have wings and can’t fly."
Qin Yi laughed, "Place the kite on the ground and sit on it, then big brother can make you fly."
Xiao Rui happily placed the kite on the ground and then sat on it, "Big brother, is this right?"
"Yeah, that’s right. Xiao Rui did great. If you get scared, just tell big brother, okay?"
"Okay!"
Qin Yi extended his hand, an invisible force sweeping out, enveloping Xiao Rui and the kite. As Qin Yi slowly raised his hand, the kite, along with Xiao Rui sitting on it, actually floated up, more than a ter off the ground.
