Quan Dongting thought he would be unhappy or just get up and leave, after all, he had heard about Li Beijue’s temper and knew that his personality wasn’t the type to listen patiently.
Besides, he spoke so bluntly.
But he didn’t expect that the man sitting opposite not only listened but also showed no displeasure or impatience at all.
Quan Dongting raised his eyebrows slightly, a flash of light passed through his eyes, and then he returned to normal and said, "Of course, although I am not satisfied with you, as long as Enen likes you, I will support her choice."
"However, my mother is very uneasy. Moreover, you are about to get married, yet you haven’t visited us once, which also makes my mother dissatisfied."
Li Beijue looked at him in surprise.
Was Quan Dongting hinting at how he should speak when facing Old Lady Habsden?
He thought it seed like it, yet he wasn’t sure.
After all, Quan Dongting spoke so casually, as if he said it unintentionally.
Li Beijue pressed his thin lips and got the ssage.
Whether or not Quan Dongting’s words were a reminder, he planned to make a good impression later.
...
After chatting with him for a few more words, Quan Dongting took him to the Garden.
In the Garden, a set of beautiful circular fabric sofas were placed, with flower tea in the middle, looking particularly artistic.
At this mont.
An old man, with a head full of white hair and full of energy, was holding a chubby, cute little girl and playing there.
The little girl’s fair cheeks were rosy, clearly showing she had been well taken care of in the past few days.
It seed she heard the commotion over here and suddenly turned her head, seeing Li Beijue walking over with Quan Dongting, her eyes lit up, and she excitedly called out, "Dad... Dad..."
The loving old man’s eyes were filled with affection, quickly holding her to prevent her from falling due to excitent, and softly said next to her, "My little ancestor, be careful, sit properly, sit first."
"Grandpa." The little girl was more excited than anyone, pointing at Li Beijue, and boasting, "Dad, Nuonuo’s dad."
Old Lady Habsden originally intended to give Li Beijue a hard ti, but she could only go along with it helplessly due to the little girl’s interruption, "Yes, yes, I know."
Nuonuo looked around, searching behind Li Beijue for a long ti but couldn’t find her brother, pouting her lips, her big black and white eyes full of grievance, "Bro-brother, no bro-brother."
"Your brother went to buy you sugar, so he didn’t co." Li Beijue lied without changing his expression.
The little girl blinked her eyes, her previously aggrieved expression instantly turning into a drooling hungry cat look, still unsure and asked, "Bro-brother, buying sugar?"
In her small worldview, Bae Chi was her favorite person and also the most stingy person she had ever t. Although she was still young and couldn’t quite express the aning of "stingy," she felt her brother was good at everything except being too stingy. Especially with her, he always used her sweets to threaten her, leaving her to just stare at the sweets and drool.
So when Li Beijue said Bae Chi went to buy sweets for her, her first reaction was joy, the second was doubt.
Li Beijue t her doubtful gaze and said without changing his expression, "Yes."
Nuonuo was only two years old and innocent like a blank sheet of paper.
She thought that with her brother’s stingy personality, it was unlikely he’d buy her sweets, but since Li Beijue said so, she was overjoyed, wishing she could jump up with joy.
