Daddy, Come Home For Dinner!

Chapter 906: Chapter 906: This Man Is Really Handsome

But similarly, girls at this age are mostly still in school, relying on pocket money given by their parents.

Most don’t have much economic ability to meticulously maintain themselves; they’re all about natural beauty.

Only when they start working and gain some economic power, do they gradually improve themselves.

Being naturally beautiful is obviously advantageous.

But it’s also worth noting, not everyone is born a beauty.

Only when they have their own independent economic foundation and financial conditions.

Through skincare and maintenance, makeup, dressing taste, participation and learning of various interests and hobbies, they slowly make themselves more attractive, from temperament to appearance, from inner quality to outer beauty, increasingly elegant and beautiful.

But at this time, in the eyes of some, girls’ age may be approaching or already classified as "leftover women."

However, Li Xiaoyun feels that girls at this time are actually the best.

They have experience, have seen a lot, and experienced a lot.

They have substance, know more, and their thoughts are more independent.

They have economic power, not needing to rely on anyone.

They protect themselves more meticulously, from the inside out, even better than when they were young.

For them, a partner isn’t necessary.

If they truly like someone, then be together.

But if they haven’t met the one they like, there’s no need to rush.

So, Li Xiaoyun never feels there’s anything to be embarrassed about regarding her age.

Therefore, Li Xiaoyun openly speaks about it.

Zhao Dingli silently calculated the age gap between them, then said: "Actually, I’m only ten years older than you, the age difference between us isn’t that large."

Li Xiaoyun turned her head in surprise, unable to control her reaction, blurting out: "You’re only 37?"

Regarding Li Xiaoyun’s surprised reaction, Zhao Dingli was unsure whether to be happy or upset.

Just how old did she think he was?

However, hearing the word "only" from Li Xiaoyun seemed to suggest she thinks he’s quite young.

Zhao Dingli felt that, regarding Li Xiaoyun’s reaction, he was more happy.

Honestly, this was the first time he heard someone say "you’re only 37."

Previously, he’d always heard family members say "you’re already 37."

Now hearing Li Xiaoyun say this, he felt quite young himself.

Zhao Dingli nodded and said: "Otherwise, how old did you think I was?"

Li Xiaoyun chuckled dryly and said: "Actually, I never thought too much about it, just thought that since you’re Ye Fei’s fourth uncle, then..."

Surely you can’t be as young as you appear, right?

As for thinking he was at least in his forties or fifties, Li Xiaoyun wisely chose not to voice this.

Seeing Zhao Dingli seem quite conscious about age.

Li Xiaoyun felt that if Zhao Dingli heard her true thoughts, he probably wouldn’t be happy.

Better not to say it aloud.

Moreover, Li Xiaoyun felt her initial thinking wasn’t too far off.

She estimated Zhao Dingli had to be in his forties or fifties.

Although fifty might be exaggerating, saying forty wasn’t too far off.

Zhao Dingli is already 37, so wouldn’t it be counting towards forty?

Thinking about it, it’s just three years, time flies by quickly.

Of course, Li Xiaoyun was just thinking this secretly, definitely not saying it out loud.

"Well, you’re right, your seniority is quite intimidating." Li Xiaoyun chuckled dryly.

Made her think he maintained well to look so young.

However, even at 37, maintaining this well is indeed not bad.

Li Xiaoyun took advantage of the dark car interior to secretly observe Zhao Dingli.

Zhao Dingli is tall.

Even though it can’t be seen when he’s seated in the car.

But before getting in the car, Li Xiaoyun had already noticed.

And those long legs.

So long that the driver’s seat is adjusted way back.

Since it’s not a formal occasion, Zhao Dingli dressed casually.

He originally wore a woolen coat.

But the car heater was on, so once inside, he took off the coat and threw it on the back seat.

Now he’s just wearing a shirt.

This allowed Li Xiaoyun to clearly see that his figure is really good.

At least he’s slim.

Seeing his flat stomach, without any bulge even while sitting.

However, blocked by the shirt, it’s unknown whether he has abs underneath.

But regardless, Li Xiaoyun felt not having a belly is already pretty good.

As Zhao Dingli drives, his hand grips the steering wheel, naturally lifting his arm.

This is how Li Xiaoyun saw his arm taut beneath the shirt.

The shirt sleeve tightly clinging to his arm due to his lifted motion.

Just nicely revealing the muscle contours.

The gentle rise and fall lines aren’t too much, just right, quite pleasing.

Li Xiaoyun reminded herself not to keep staring, or it’d be awkward if noticed.

Therefore, she dared only to sneak glances occasionally.

This moment, Zhao Dingli says: "Since we’re not far apart in age, you don’t need to keep addressing me formally."

Sounds too distant.

As if he’s so dignified.

As if the seniority difference is too great.

Li Xiaoyun thought, should she follow Ye Fei in honoring him in seniority?

Ye Fei calls him formally, but she calls him casually, how inappropriate.

Since Zhao Dingli said it many times, if she kept refusing, it would seem pretentious, lacking common sense.

Li Xiaoyun felt conflicted.

Thinking she’s been in the workplace for years.

Unexpectedly being stumped now.

It’s genuinely because Zhao Dingli’s aura is too strong.

Even facing her own boss wasn’t this nerve-wracking.

She ordinarily met various clients and bosses.

But never encountered one at Zhao Dingli’s level.

No matter which client’s boss, none had such presence.

Li Xiaoyun felt it was tough.

Didn’t know how to converse suitably with Zhao Dingli.

Zhao Dingli seemed to sense Li Xiaoyun’s apprehension, so he said: "You are friends with Ye Fei, but you don’t need to follow her seniority; we each should have our own terms."

"Otherwise, could you really call me fourth uncle?" Zhao Dingli asked.

Li Xiaoyun instinctively wanted to say she could.

But fortunately hadn’t had time to speak out.

Just as they hit a red light.

Zhao Dingli stopped the car, and using that moment, he turned to look at Li Xiaoyun.

Pointing to his own face and said: "Looking at my face, could you really call me fourth uncle?"

Li Xiaoyun, hearing this, obediently turned to look at Zhao Dingli’s face.

Oh my, this man is really handsome!

Earlier, she was focused on the game and cursing Zhuang Mingyan.

Honestly, hadn’t really taken a good look at Zhao Dingli’s appearance.
