Daddy, Come Home For Dinner!

Chapter 918: Chapter 918: Could Fourth Grandpa Be a Player?

"If my parents find out, can they let me off the hook?" Ye Fei said with a smile, "In elementary school, I didn’t understand it at all, and in middle and high school, I neither had the time nor dared to."

Zhao Gushen almost wanted to ask, what if there was time and courage?

But he didn’t ask.

Because all of this is hypothetical.

At that time, Ye Fei had no time and didn’t dare.

There’s no need to hypothesize about things that have already happened.

It’s just that Zhao Gushen suddenly remembered that not long ago, there was Rong Jingyan, who liked Ye Fei in high school, but never confessed and dragged it until recently, right?

If it weren’t for that, he wouldn’t know if there would have been his own story.

Zhao Gushen let out a deep sigh of relief.

Indeed, his fate with Ye Fei was stronger.

A destiny made in heaven!

At this moment, Ye Fei said, "As for university, you know."

She dropped out in her freshman year and didn’t continue.

Being pregnant and working, there was no opportunity to think about such romantic matters.

While Ye Fei was chattering with Zhao Gushen, the others didn’t really catch what they were saying.

Zhao Dingli knew Li Xiaoyun had never been in a relationship.

So he didn’t have to wonder what the young man who dated Li Xiaoyun during her teenage years looked like.

Zhao Dingli glanced at Li Xiaoyun inconspicuously.

He wondered what Li Xiaoyun was like during her teenage years.

Now, of course, Li Xiaoyun was still young and particularly beautiful.

The kind of person that stands out in a crowd, making everyone say she’s pretty.

Plus, with her current economic conditions, she had the means to maintain herself meticulously.

Her skin was delicate and supple, her makeup was subtle yet beautiful.

Everything about her radiated refinement.

Zhao Dingli became even more curious about what Li Xiaoyun looked like as a student, without all the dressing up.

Was she that naive or even a bit silly?

At the dining table, the elderly lady, feeling her seniority, inquired about Li Xiaoyun’s family’s situation.

From her parents’ jobs to the family’s composition.

Upon learning that Li Xiaoyun went back to her hometown during the New Year, she asked where her hometown was.

She got a clear picture of Li Xiaoyun’s situation.

The elderly lady also had the intention to ask about the type of boys Li Xiaoyun liked.

But fearing she might be too obvious, she barely held back from asking.

"You and Xiao Fei are good friends, Xiao Fei always talks about you in front of us," the elderly lady said, "Xiao Fei mentioned that during her most difficult times, you were the one by her side."

"When she was pregnant, giving birth to Xiao Mo, getting Xiao Mo’s birth certificate and registered residency, it was you who helped her get things sorted," the elderly lady said.

The elderly lady knew, something that seemed trivial was really hard to accomplish without connections.

Especially in a city like B City.

It was thanks to Li Xiaoyun’s broad clientele and connections that things got done.

"Ye Fei, taking care of Xiao Mo all by herself, couldn’t manage it all, and you were there to help her," the elderly lady said.

Li Xiaoyun listened, feeling tense.

What could the elderly lady mean?

Could it be that because she had helped Ye Fei, they wanted to pay her back with money or material goods?

Li Xiaoyun swallowed nervously.

No need, really!

She and Ye Fei are friends.

If they thanked her with money and such, it would seem like they’re paying her to keep her distance from Ye Fei in the future.

Li Xiaoyun’s mind inadvertently staged a melodrama where she’s being rejected by the wealthy.

But unexpectedly, what the elderly lady said was: "You and Xiao Fei are so close, I heard from Xiao Fei, you are her only true best friend."

These words made Li Xiaoyun feel very touched.

Li Xiaoyun looked directly at Ye Fei, her eyes brimming with emotion.

She knew it. Even though Ye Fei got married, she wouldn’t forget her as a friend.

The elderly lady continued, "So you must visit often in the future!"

Li Xiaoyun was dumbfounded.

Is that what the elderly lady meant?

"Don’t consider us outsiders," the elderly lady said with a smile, "Come over to play often."

"Like today, you were obviously worried about Xiao Fei, but because we were here, you felt embarrassed to come," the elderly lady understood Li Xiaoyun’s thoughts.

"Actually, you don’t need to be so polite with us," the elderly lady said, "You are Xiao Fei’s friend, in my eyes, that’s like being part of our family. Like half a child of our family."

Li Xiaoyun didn’t expect the elderly lady to say this.

If others heard this, they’d be so envious for her to become half a family member with the Zhao family so easily!

Zhao Dingli, on the side, felt his heart in his throat.

Afraid the elderly lady would say she’s half of Zhao Dinghuan’s family.

Fortunately, the elderly lady’s intelligence was intact and she didn’t say that.

Li Xiaoyun nodded, no matter whether she would visit or not, in this situation, she just had to agree.

Maybe the elderly lady was just being polite.

The elderly couple were old, and it was clear that they didn’t like to mingle too much with outsiders.

If she did visit often, she might disturb them.

But, since the elderly lady said so, she went along and agreed.

The elderly lady could see through it and told Li Xiaoyun, "I’m not just being polite, I’m serious."

"If you’re free, come visit. If you encounter situations like today, I don’t mean unpleasant situations," the elderly lady said, "I mean, when we run into each other, come along!"

"Even if Xiao Fei isn’t around, come by to have fun. Xiao Mo often stays at the old house too, he always mentions you," the elderly lady said.

Zhao Dingli nodded and said, "During the New Year, I heard Xiao Mo talk about you too."

The little guy thought about it but couldn’t remember when he mentioned Godmother to Great Uncle.

Seems there wasn’t an opportunity!

Usually, it’s when the conversation naturally turns to that topic.

But he hadn’t gotten a chance yet to talk to Zhao Dingli about Li Xiaoyun.

The little guy glanced at Zhao Dingli, conveying his reproach with his look.

How could he lie!

The little guy secretly tugged at Ye Fei.

Ye Fei lowered her head to look.

The little guy motioned for Ye Fei to lean down.

Ye Fei obliged and leaned closer to the little guy.

The little guy leaned into Ye Fei’s ear and said, "Xiao Fei, do you think Great Uncle is a scoundrel?"

Ye Fei: "..."

Ye Fei’s mouth twitched, whispering, "Don’t say things like that, why would you think that?"

The little guy whispered, "I’m sure I didn’t mention Godmother to Great Uncle. So with Great Uncle saying that, doesn’t that mean he’s lying to Godmother?"

"They aren’t even together yet, and he’s already lying to Godmother, doesn’t that make him a scoundrel?" the little guy said.

Ye Fei: "..."

Ye Fei’s eyes twitched slightly, too.
