Chapter 1971: Caught Eavesdropping
Le Tian wanted to follow Ding Junqi in, but her father stopped her from entering. He asked her to take care of Ding Yuejia.
Le Tian used to make models in her study before this. However, her mother had recently cleaned it up, and it turned out to be quite a cozy room.
Le Tian’s father took out a chess set and placed it on the table.
“Mr. Ding, let’s not beat around the bush. You like my daughter, don’t you?” Le Tian’s father asked directly.
Ding Junqi paused. He did not expect his future father-in-law to be so direct.
Since his future father-in-law was being straightforward, there was no need for him to hold back.
“Yes, I like Le Tian,” Ding Junqi admitted openly.
“I’ve been watching the news about your family recently.” Le Tian’s father could not shake off his worry on the matter after all.
Ding Junqi’s heart skipped a beat. He knew that his future father-in-law now had his eyes on his family matters. For the first time in his life, he had the feeling that even if this Cinderella married into a rich family, it was possible that Cinderella’s family would despise the rich family.
Like him!
“We’ll resolve this matter. I won’t let Le Tian get involved in this matter.” Ding Junqi remained polite and well-behaved. Even when he spoke, it did not sound like he was boasting. Since he claimed that he would resolve the matter, that only meant he was resolving it.
“As celebrities, your relationship—”
“They’re all rumors,” Ding Junqi intercepted hurriedly. He had to make this clear because it concerned her father-in-law’s honest opinion of him. “But don’t worry, I won’t condone any rumors anymore.”
Le Tian’s father seemed to be very satisfied with Ding Junqi’s answer, but he also felt that there were some things that he was yet to be satisfied with.
Ding Junqi lowered his eyes slightly. He could feel that it was not enough to make his next move in chess carefully. He still had to pay attention to his future father-in-law’s expression.
He must not win, yet he must not lose too easily either.
“The mother of your child—”
Ding Junqi’s hand that was holding the chess piece paused for a moment. At last, this question had been brought up.
However, since Le Tian had yet to tell her parents, he should not be the one to break the news to her parents.
“Yuejia really likes Le Tian. Le Tian also likes him. You might not know this, but Le Tian only agreed to be my assistant because of Yuejia.”
“Mr. Ding, what I want to ask is, will your child’s mother come back?” Le Tian’s father asked with words that were as sharp as a knife.
However, Ding Junqi could not answer this question.
Of course, his child’s mother would come back—she had already returned.
Yet, how was he supposed to tell Mr. Le about this now?
“Whether she comes back or not, I don’t think it will change the fact that I like Le Tian. I think that even if she comes back, she’ll approve of my choice,” Ding Junqi said sternly.
However, Le Tian’s father did not seem to like this answer.
Therefore, Le Tian’s father only called out to Ding Junqi, “Let’s play.”
Ding Junqi secretly broke out in cold sweat. This future mother-in-law was easy to deal with, but this future father-in-law was too difficult for him to handle.
Le Tian had been leaning against the door to the study the entire time. She listened for a long time but heard nothing. What was going on?
“Mommy, what are you doing?” asked Ding Yuejia softly as he came over and hugged Le Tian’s leg. His voice was so small as if he was afraid that others might overhear him.
Ding Yuejia had just finished speaking when the study door was suddenly pulled open from inside.
Le Tian, “…”
Ding Junqi stood at the door and looked at the mother and son standing outside. The ambiguous smile on his face hinted that he already knew that Le Tian was waiting outside the door.
Le Tian instantly brought Ding Yuejia back and spoke to Ding Junqi in an odd tone, “My mom is asking you to eat.”
It sounded like she was merely there to ask Ding Junqi to eat.
