Ye Qianqian was unwinding the scarf around her neck when she heard what her dad said. She mischievously stuck her tongue out, then asked, “How did you guess?”

“Hmph! I’m your dad.”

Although his tone was brusque, he came forward to help her with her things. “Have some tea,” he said. “It was just brewed.”

He held Ye Qianqian’s hand for a while, then frowned with concern. “Hey, your hands are cold. Why aren’t you wearing more layers?”

“I’m already wearing so many! Look how round I look.” Ye Qianqian spread her arms wide to prove her point. She was indeed bundled up.

With his brows furrowed, Ye Zhenhua handed her a cup of tea. “Drink it. It’s warm.”

Ye Qianqian took it from him and finished it all in one go. “Wow! It’s really good!”

She turned around to look at Shen Zhilie and picked up another cup. “Have some too!” she told him.

Shen Zhilie took the cup from her and downed it in one sitting. “It’s good tea!” he exclaimed.

Ye Qianqian cheerily placed the cups down, but Ye Zhenhua was clearly upset. In a voice tinged with bitterness, he said, “Indeed, the woman is destined to be married off! I’ve never seen you treat your own father this well before!”

“Come on, Dad. Didn’t you just finish your tea?” Ye Qianqian asked as she pressed Ye Zhenhua down onto the couch. “Have a seat. We’ll eat out today. It’s such a cold day. You don’t have to cook.”

“Hmph,” Ye Zhenhua snorted as he glanced at Ye Qianqian and then at Shen Zhilie. “When do you intend to get married?” he asked.

Shen Zhilie rubbed his nose and said, “We’re probably going to wait a little longer. According to the fortune teller, we have to wait until Ye Qianqian turns twenty-eight.”

Ye Qianqian very rarely communicated with her father. They hadn’t mentioned anything to him about her meeting with Uncle Blind Man, so naturally, he had no idea. However, when Ye Zhenhua heard about it, he wasn’t surprised. He nodded his head and said, “It’s good enough that both of you love each other. It would be a pity to be together for so many years only to never see Ye Qianqian turn twenty-eight.”
