Love So Sweet

Seeing that his daughter was dressed up prettily made him frown. However, Zhang Yu Han quickly retracted his gaze before his daughter would notice the look in his eyes.

“Mommy, Daddy, good morning.” Zhang Li Xue’s tone naturally became much livelier.

“You’re going to see Bai Qi?” Li Qin Yao asked.

“Un.” Zhang Li Xue nodded shyly. ”

“Then, why don’t you have your breakfast before you go?” Li Qin Yao turned, to call Auntie and let her serve some dumpling soup for her daughter.

“Mommy, it’s alright. I promised Bai Qi that I’ll be having breakfast with him,” Zhang Li Xue said.

Li Qin Yao gave her daughter a teasing look. She grabbed a meat bun and handed it over to her daughter. “Just take this then. Eat something to pad your stomach.”

Zhang Li Xue had a sheepish look on her face.

.....

“Next time, when Bai Qi is free, you should invite him over for a meal,” Li Qin Yao said. “Last time, there were too many people around. Mommy and Daddy did not have much chance to talk to him.”

“Hmm... I will mention this to him later.” Zhang Li Xue paused. There was a hint of hesitation in her eyes. “Then, Mommy, Daddy, I’ll be going now.” She walked over to her parents and kissed them on the cheek before she left.

Zhang Yu Han watched as his daughter left the house and sighed.

“Alright. Stop sulking.” Li Qin Yao laughed when she saw the look on her husband’s face. “Isn’t it a good thing that Li Xue is dating someone? It couldn’t be that you want our Li Xue to stay single forever, right?”

Even if his daughter decided to stay single, he would not mind it. Anyway, it was not as if he could not afford to raise her forever.

“I didn’t say forever.” Zhang Yu Han muttered. He lowered his head and picked up a dumpling in his soup.

Li Qin Yao stretched her hand to pinch the man’s cheek. She couldn’t help but think that her husband was too adorable.

“Look at you.” Li Qin Yao continued to laugh. “What are you going to do when Li Xue gets married?”

Zhang Yu Han choked on the soup.

His wife handed him a glass of water as she patted him on his back. Then, Zhang Yu Han stared at his wife with his eyes widened.

He only agreed to let his daughter date that brat. Why did his wife suddenly mention marriage?

Li Qin Yao seemed to understand the look on her husband’s face. It made her very speechless.

“Qin Yao, don’t you think that it’s too early to think about our daughter’s marriage?”

“How is it too early?” Li Qin Yao chuckled. “Most of her friends are married. Some of them already have one or two kids.”

Zhang Yu Han grabbed the napkin to wipe the spilled soup on the table.

A sigh escaped her.

Li Qin Yao wanted to mention their future grandchildren. However, she was worried that it would be too much for her husband.

“Yu Han, I think you are quite fortunate,” Li Qin Yao said. “My father passed away a long time ago. You had never experienced that nerve-wracking feeling. Meeting him and asking for his permission to date his daughter.”

Zhang Yu Han smiled. He could only agree with his wife. “Mmm... But, I was just as anxious to meet your mother.” He stretched his hand to hold his wife’s hands. “I already know that I wanted to marry you. So, I was very scared that your mother would not like me.”

Fortunately, his mother-in-law was quite supportive.

Zhang Yu Han could still remember how his mother-in-law had given him a long speech and warning.

Li Qin Yao’s mother might seem like a gentle woman, but Zhang Yu Han knew that his mother-in-law was a very fierce woman.

But after he married his wife, his mother-in-law treated him very well. According to his wife, his mother-in-law’s favored him more than her.

However, Zhang Yu Han understood what his wife wanted to tell him. “I already promised that I will give Bai Qi a chance. I won’t go back on my words.”

The husband and wife continued to chat as they had their breakfast.

Then, Zhang Yu Han returned to his study and grabbed his phone. After considering it for a while, he finally dialed a number.

The phone call was connected after a few seconds.

“Wei Jun Hao, tell the others to gather tonight,” Zhang Yu Han spoke. “Let’s have another basketball match together.”

Wei Jun Hao wanted to curse. “Brother-in-law, didn’t we have a basketball match a while ago? Why do you want to have another match? My body is still in pain from our last game.”

Zhang Yu Han clicked his tongue. “You’re too weak.”

“I’m old.” Most people his age would not jump around for a basketball match. His knees were already very weak.

Why is his brother-in-law this perverted? How can he like basketball so much?

“Then, exercising would be very good for you,” Zhang Yu Han said. “Since we are all getting older, we should be looking after our health.”

Wei Jun Hao wanted to cry. Because he was married to Zhang Yu Ying, this brother-in-law thought that he was the easiest to bully.

However, Wei Jun Hao has befriended Zhang Yu Han for years. He knew that Zhang Yu Han would ask them to play basketball whenever he was upset and needed a way to vent.

Recently, the only person who could make Zhang Yu Han upset should be Bai Qi, right?

Could it be that Zhang Yu Han was unhappy that his daughter went on a date with her boyfriend?

Of course, Wei Jun Hao would never think that he had guessed it right.

“Yu Han, instead of having a match with us, how about you ask Bai Qi to play with you? That boy is very good at basketball.”

“Bai Qi?”

“Uh-huh. I heard that he almost went professional in basketball.”

Zhang Yu Han’s eyes lit up. He would never have thought that the young man would be good at basketball. Now that he thought about it, Bai Qi was quite tall.

His daughter’s love for basketball was almost the same as his. Zhang Yu Han thought that his daughter might have been dating Bai Qi because of his skill.

A few seconds later, Zhang Yu Han realized that there was something wrong with Wei Jun Hao’s words. “Wait. Jun Hao, how do you know that Bai Qi almost went professional?”

Wei Jun Hao wanted to curse again, realizing that he almost blurted out some secret. He took a deep breath to calm down and spoke, “Of course, I heard this from Qi Zheng.” He had no other choice but to use Qi Zheng’s name to save himself.
