Love So Sweet

249 Swear on My Life

“That kid is as sharp as ever,” Feng An Yu spoke as the group headed outside. He glanced at Bai Qi and narrowed his eyes. “Fortunately, she still lowered her guard down.”

The group of men walked until they both get farther from the house. They finally stopped and turned to look at the young man beside them.

Su Ming Yuan saw that his friend, Qi Zheng was staying too close to Bai Qi and chuckled. “Qi Zheng, I know that this boy is your student, but can’t protect him from us.”

Qi Zheng glanced at Bai Qi worriedly. “Whatever you wanted to do, just don’t be too harsh on him. Bai Qi still needs to work tomorrow.” His gaze stopped at Qi Ming Wei. He was mostly worried about this person.

“What are you looking at me for?” Qi Ming Wei narrowed his eyes.

Qi Zheng raised both hands up. “I’m going to sit on the side.” Bai Qi was his student and the group of men were his friends. At this time, it was best if he did not get involved. He would feel guilty choosing either side.

“Very well.” Wei Jun Hao walked over to Qi Zheng’s side and stood beside him. “I’m going to join Qi Zheng as well.”

Feng An Yu raised a brow. “What are you doing? I know that Qi Zheng did not have the heart to bully his student. What’s your excuse?” He wrapped his arm on Wei Jun Hao’s shoulder, wanting to pull him away.

“You don’t understand.” Wei Jun Hao heaved a long sigh. “I can’t bully this kid. Otherwise, my wife would be unhappy. My lifelong happiness is the most important.”

.....

Qi Ming Wei clicked his tongue. He was already unhappy that Zhang Yu Ying was willing to accept Bai Qi dating Zhang Li Xue easily.

This was the first time that Zhang Li Xue was dating someone. As their uncles, Qi Ming Wei thought that they should all be united and test Bai Qi to see if he is qualified to date their niece.

Qi Ming Wei glanced at both Su Ming Yuan and Feng An Yu. The three of them should be enough to scare this young man.

“Bai Qi, right?” Su Ming Yuan put his arms around Bai Qi’s shoulder and smiled. “What do you think of our Li Xue?”

The serious look on Bai Qi’s face gradually turned gentler as he thought of his little fairy. “She’s an amazing woman.”

Looking at Bai Qi’s expression gave them an uncomfortable feeling.

They all agreed that Zhang Li Xue was an amazing person, but why does it feel as if they wanted to beat up this young man? They could not imagine what Zhang Yu Han would feel when his daughter finally introduced Bai Qi to him.

Would he chase Bai Qi away?

As Zhang Yu Han’s friends, they all thought that there was a possibility that this thing would happen.

Bai Qi raised his head and looked at the men with a serious look on his face. He took a deep breath and spoke, “Uncles, I know that you all love Li Xue and are worried about the person she was dating. But I promise you that I will never do anything that would hurt her. She’s an important person to me and I am very serious with her.”

“How can we trust you?” Qi Ming Wei asked.

“I’m willing to swear on my life,” Bai Qi said. “All my life, I will make her happy.”

Qi Ming Wei narrowed his eyes as he continued to stare into Bai Qi’s eyes. He could see that Bai Qi was afraid of him. However, the young man simply refused to look away. The determination and sincerity in his eyes were something that he could not fake.

“Li Xue might not be related to us biologically, but we all cared about her as if she was our daughter,” Qi Ming Wei said. “Bai Qi, if you dared to do anything that would hurt our Li Xue, then, we will come and find you.”

“I won’t let that happen,” Bai Qi spoke. He already promised himself that he would protect his little fairy all his life.

The three men exchanged a glance. After a brief silence, Su Ming Yuan flashed another smile and asked, “Bai Qi, do you know how to play basketball?”

...

Zhang Li Xue glanced at the clock again.

Her heart was beating fast with each passing second.

Even though Zhang Li Xue believes that Bai Qi would not give in easily as he faces her uncles, Zhang Li Xue could not help but feel anxious.

Her uncles were taking too long.

Unable to suppress her worry again, Zhang Li Xue finally stood up, wanting to head out.

“Li Xue!” Yun Shu was going to stop Zhang Li Xue. However, before she could take a step, Zhang Yu Ying had already stopped her.

“Just let her go,” Zhang Yu Ying spoke. “It has been a while since those men took Bai Qi away.”

Yun Shu nodded and heaved a sigh.

“Alright. Yun Shu, don’t worry. I’m sure that the guys only wanted to scare Bai Qi a little bit,” Yang Ran spoke. “They cared about Li Xue very much. They won’t dare to go overboard.”

“I’m mostly worried about your husband,” Yun Shu spoke. “Didn’t you see the look on his face? He looked like he was about to beat up Bai Qi.”

Yang Ran laughed. “He won’t dare.” A gentle smile curled on her lips. “Those men always considered Li Xue as his own daughter. If they hurt Bai Qi, Zhang Li Xue would be upset. If the girl was upset, then, the uncles would be uncomfortable.”

Yun Shu thought that Yang Ran’s words made sense and decided not to worry about it.

If something happened, Zhang Li Xue will know what she should do.

Meanwhile, Zhang Li Xue was about to head out to find her boyfriend when she spotted them walking together.

A breath of relief escaped her. However, Zhang Li Xue soon realized that something doesn’t seem right. Her Uncle Qi Zheng and Uncle Wei Jun Hao were supporting Bai Qi heading to the house.

She ran over to the group and went straight to Bai Qi. “What happened?”
