1743 Slave to His Wife
After Father Chi came to the capital this time, he wasn’t in a hurry to return to the military district. He told his daughter that he would stay a little longer, and that it wouldn’t be too late to go back after the wedding banquet.
Chi Shuyan also relaxed and had her father stay with her. Father Chi hence got to know the two little guys and Chef Li.
After tasting Chef Li’s cooking, Father Chi was astonished. When he learned that Chef Li was his daughter’s personal chef, Father Chi’s expression was a bit indescribable. When did his daughter indulge herself like this so much? If this person wasn’t his daughter, he would have reprimanded her.
However, Father Chi got along well with Chef Li and had a good impression of him. He liked the two children even more. Who asked them to be so cute, sensible and obedient?
Of course, it was impossible for Li Yu to be obedient.
It was because of Chi Shuyan that the two children deliberately cozied up to Father Chi, especially after Li Yu found out that Father Chi was Sister Shuyan’s father. The little guy’s mouth was sweet, and he was no longer as aloof as before. His desire to climb to the top had never changed. He wanted to perform well so that Father Chi would give Sister Shuyan to him as his princess.
Father Chi naturally didn’t know what Li Yu was thinking. Thanks to the two children’s enthusiasm, Father Chi liked them more and more.
Everyone got along very well.
In the blink of an eye, a few days passed, and it was soon time for the final university exams. Chi Shuyan was a good student. While the rest of the students lamented over the two consecutive days of exams, Chi Shuyan cleared them neatly.
The day before the first exam, she had already told Father Fan on WeChat that she would go to the ancient auction house and trade bazaar for a look. She would leave in the afternoon after her exams, and would probably be gone for two or three days.
She hadn’t told Qi Zhenbai yet, and felt a little guilty. When Chi Shuyan returned home after her exams, it just so happened that Qi Zhenbai was back, sitting in the living room and chatting with Father Chi.
The two chatted harmoniously. The more Father Chi looked at his son-in-law, the more he admired him. He had also seen in the past few days how considerate this kid was of his daughter. As her father, he felt a little moved.
He was very satisfied. As for the two of them living together early on, Father Chi instinctively didn’t think about it. If he thought too much, he would vomit blood from anger. Besides, it took two to tango – they had already registered their marriage, so Father Chi turned a blind eye.
Chi Shuyan took in her father’s admiring and affectionate gaze on Qi Zhenbai and thought to herself that her father had changed too quickly!
How on earth had this man coaxed her father? Why didn’t she know that he was so good at coaxing people?
Qi Zhenbai also saw that his wife had come back at that moment. He got up and walked to the door to take her bag and put it aside, then wanted to pull her over to sit with him.
Because it was cold, Chi Shuyan was wearing woolen boots now, and it was a little difficult to take them off. The living room was clean, and she hurriedly struggled free of the man and shook her feet. “No, no… I haven’t taken off my shoes yet. Wait!”
She was about to bend down and take off her boots, when the tall man in front of her crouched down first and pulled her boots off deftly before giving her house slippers, then pulled her to sit on the sofa. It was a small thing, and neither of them thought much of it. She followed the man and called out, “Dad!”
Father Chi, on the other hand, was so surprised that his jaw almost dropped to the floor.
To Chi Shuyan, this man was usually taciturn, but he did a lot of considerate things in their daily life, like feeding her. Or, when she wanted to go to the washroom, but was too tired, he would carry her to the washroom, then carry her back to bed to sleep. He did a lot of considerate things day in and day out, but most of them were in private and between just the two of them; they rarely showed off their love in public.
Looking at his son-in-law’s practiced movements and the young couple’s unperturbed expressions, he knew that his son-in-law usually did a lot of such ‘small things.’ His daughter was used to his son-in-law taking care of her. Thinking this, Father Chi gave his son-in-law a complicated and serious look. It had to be pointed out that in the past, he had opposed their relationship because he was afraid that Zhenbai, who was from a major family, would be willful – if his daughter couldn’t hold on to him, what would happen if she was hurt in the future?
Looking at how his son-in-law took care of his daughter in all aspects, however, it was clear that his daughter had completely tamed this Qi family member! He was as considerate as could be.
Father Chi was utterly impressed and curious as to how his daughter had tamed her husband. If only the father and daughter were here, Father Chi would have asked her how she had tamed this Qi family member so well that he was no different from a slave to his wife!
If he hadn’t heard before of this Qi family member’s temper and swift and decisive methods as a soldier, Father Qi really would have thought that he didn’t have a temper at all!
But in the end, Father Chi was still a little old-fashioned. No matter how much he doted on his daughter, he still felt that when a man worked to earn money, a woman had to take care of the house and her husband – only then would their relationship prosper. Besides, this son-in-law was also a good person. So, Father Chi frowned and lectured his daughter for once, “Yan Yan, do you still have to trouble your husband over a small matter like taking off your own shoes? After the wedding, you have to take good care of your husband, understand? It’s already tiring for a man who is busy earning money to support the family; you have to be considerate of Zhenbai and do the small things yourself! Be more sensible!”
Chi Shuyan was stupefied and rendered speechless. Was this person in front of her really her father? Was he really not Qi Zhenbai’s father?
