Love So Sweet

270 Someone Needs to Vent

A while ago, Li Qin Yao could not help but be anxious upon hearing that her husband was left alone with Bai Qi. Worried that her husband would say something that would make Bai Qi uncomfortable, Li Qin Yao decided to walk over and check what was going on.

When Li Qin Yao walked over to her husband’s side, she noticed that the air around him and Bai Qi was not as tense as she had thought.

Li Qin Yao wrapped her arms around her husband’s shoulder and flashed a smile. “What did the two of you talk about?”

“Bai Qi was telling me about his work at the hospital,” Zhang Yu Han answered with an innocent look on his face.

Now that his wife had appeared, of course, he could not continue to threaten this boy.

“Where’s Li Xue?” Li Qin Yao swept her gaze around the place.

“She said she’s going to take some food,” Zhang Yu Han said. “That’s right, what’s taking her so long?” He looked around and finally saw his daughter standing near the griller with the boys surrounding her.

“Bai Qi, it’s getting late,” Li Qin Yao said. “How about spending the night here? We have many extra rooms.”

Zhang Yu Han tightened his hand into a tight fist. He only agreed to give Bai Qi a chance to date his daughter. And now, his wife was inviting this young man to stay?

.....

His face remained expressionless, however, Zhang Yu Han was very unhappy.

“Aunt, it’s alright. I can’t stay,” Bai Qi said. “I still have an early shift tomorrow. Moreover... my sister is at home.”

It was then that Li Qin Yao remembered Bai Qi’s little sister. “Next time, you can bring your sister over as well. There are a lot of kids around. They can accompany her to play.”

Li Qin Yao remembered that adorable little girl and thought that it was too pitiful to let her stay at home alone.

Bai Qi smiled. “Then, next time, I’ll bring Xi Xi around as well.”

The two of them chatted briefly. Then, Bai Qi glanced at his watch and knew that he could not stay for too long.

When Zhang Li Xue finally returned with her food, Bai Qi mentioned that he could not stay for too long.

Zhang Li Xue could not hide her disappointment. “Then, I’ll walk you out?”

“Alright.” Bai Qi nodded.

“Li Xue, Bai Qi, wait!” As they walked over to the door, Zhang Yu Ying walked over to their side with a paper bag in her hand. Zhang Yu Ying passed the bag to Bai Qi and spoke, “Bai Qi, bring back some food home and eat them later.”

Bai Qi peeked into the bag and saw a few food containers, fruits as well as some snacks. “Aunt, this is too much.”

“It’s not.” Zhang Yu Ying smiled. “You can eat them slowly with your sister.”

Bai Qi tightened his grip around the bag. “Then, thank you, Aunt.”

“Un.” Zhang Yu Ying nodded. “Be careful on your way home.”

Bai Qi paused. “Aunt, I have thought about the question you asked me the other day.” His expression turned serious. “I’d like to proceed with the investigation.”

“Are you sure?”

“Un.” Bai Qi nodded. “I know that it might take a while to look at what happened a few years ago. But, I’d like to know what really happened.”

Zhang Yu Ying’s smile turned gentler. “Then, I’ll talk to your Uncle Wei about it. We’ll talk to you when we receive any news.”

“Thank you, aunt.”

After a brief chat, Bai Qi finally left.

Zhang Yu Ying turned around to the living room and found that the room was especially quiet. Other than her parents, everyone else seemed to have disappeared. Zhang Yu Ying turned to her mother and asked, “Mom, what happened to everyone?”

“Mmm...” Liu Hui Lan glanced at the backyard. “Your brother asked the others for a basketball match.”

“Ah?” Zhang Yu Ying turned and headed out to look for everyone else.

On the basketball court, a group of old and young men formed two teams for a basketball match. This time, even her sons were dragged into it.

Zhang Yu Ying walked over to her sister-in-law and asked. “What happened? Why are they playing basketball suddenly?”

Li Qin Yao looked at her husband and sighed. “Someone needs to vent after meeting his daughter’s boyfriend for the first time. Naturally, the others would be his victim.”

Zhang Yu Ying stared at her brother who was dribbling the basketball over to the hoop. In one swift move, he jumped up high and dunked the ball into the hoop.

Zhang Yu Han might be in his fifties, but he was still as agile and energetic as he was when he was young. Perhaps it was because he often works out and practices whenever he has the chance.

In a while, the others who were on Zhang Yu Han’s team began to cheer.

Wei Zi Kai stood at the side and reported the points. Then, he glanced at his father who was n the opposite team, and sighed in disappointment.

The triplets had watched their father and their uncle’s basketball match for years. However, they had never seen their father win a match against their Eldest Uncle even once.

Previously, they heard that his father had won a match against their uncle once. And that was the time he wanted to propose to their mother. However, the triplets began to believe that the story was fake.

Looking at their father’s skill... there was no way that their father could win even once.

In the center of the basketball court. Qi Zheng had both hands on his knees as he tried to catch up his breath. The basketball match started a while ago, but he was already too tired.

Qi Zheng shot a look at Zhang Yu Han and spoke breathlessly. “Yu Han, why do I feel as if you are targeting me?”

Zhang Yu Han had a smile on his face. “Isn’t Bai Qi your student? Then, you should know that he was dating my daughter a while ago, right?”

Qi Zheng wanted to curse. He did not expect that he would be targeted because of this. He glanced at his friends, wanting to reveal that everyone already knew that Zhang Li Xue was dating that boy a while ago.

However, the moment he saw the look on his friends’ faces, the words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat.

Feng An Yu walked over to Su Ming Yuan and spoke, “What is this? Instead of having a match with Bai Qi, why did Yu Han choose to torture us instead?”

Su Ming Yuan frowned. “I don’t know.” He muttered a cursing word. “Do you think he knew that we already know about Bai Qi?”

The two friends did not get the chance to figure out the reason as Zhang Yu Han had already started another round of his torture.
