Pei Yao’s father told her mother about this. The two of them knew their daughter well and immediately saw through her hesitant behavior.

As a result, Pei Yao’s parents had a good impression of Beitang Lie. If not for the fact that the two had been so busy with 117 work, Pei Yao’s parents would have made her invite him back to dinner a long time ago.

It was not easy for her to have the chance to ask Beitang Lie.

Beitang Lie put on an innocent expression and raised three fingers. “You can’t malign me like this! I swear to the heavens, I have no intention of deliberately getting close to Uncle and Auntie. I can only say that we are fated.”

Pei Yao’s face turned even redder as she stammered, “Who cares? Don’t talk nonsense.”

“Yaoyao, just admit it. You’re happy that I’m going to your house, right? I understand. If you didn’t have any ulterior motives, you wouldn’t have invited me, right?” Beitang Lie knew that Pei Yao would hate to admit it, but he still wanted to hear her say it.

Pei Yao saw his expectant expression and straightened her neck proudly. “Good that you know. Why do I have to say it out loud?”

Beitang Lie chuckled and stood up with her in his arms. “Let’s go and ask Boss for leave. We’ll set off now to buy some gifts for Uncle and Auntie.”

“Alright.” Pei Yao was naturally happy that he was so serious about this matter.

Chi Jiao and Quan Jue returned home together and prepared lunch with Lu Xian and Shen Xing. They waited for Chi Mingwei to come home to eat together.

Chi Mingwei hadn’t seen his daughter for a few days. He couldn’t suppress his longing and couldn’t concentrate on work anymore. After handing some work matters over to his secretary, he rushed home.

Chi Mingwei smiled brightly when he entered the house. “Jiaojiao? Where’s my baby? Daddy is back.”

Chi Jiao, who was cooking in the kitchen, heard his voice and stuck her head out. She called out sweetly, “Daddy!”

“My baby!” Chi Mingwei hugged her happily and spun her around. He immediately put her down and observed her for a moment before his expression darkened. “What happened? It’s only been three days since we last met. Why have you lost weight again?”

“Daddy, I’m fine.” Chi Jiao quickly comforted him.

“Quan Jue, why did Jiaojiao lose weight again? Where have you been these past few days?” Chi Mingwei asked as he stared at Quan Jue with a stern expression.

Chi Mingwei’s heart had always ached for Chi Jiao. Now that she had lost a lot of weight again, his heart ached as if it had been dug out.

Chi Jiao had been with Quan Jue for the past three days. Chi Mingwei, who loved his daughter dearly, naturally had to ask him for an explanation.

“Daddy, what are you doing? This has nothing to do with Brother Quan. I haven’t been feeling well these past few days, that’s why I haven’t been eating properly.” Chi Jiao quickly pulled his arm.

Chi Mingwei felt even more jealous to see her speak up for Quan Jue. He immediately became a green-eyed monster.

Although Quan Jue was handsome and had a bright future, in Chi Mingwei’s opinion, he was still some unworthy punk who had stolen his precious daughter.

Quan Jue didn’t dare to retort.

At this moment, Lu Xian walked out and placed a plate on the dining table. She pretended to smack Quan Jue. “Your uncle is right. You’ve been with Jiaojiao for a few days. How did she get so thin?”
