When Qi Mingting thought of how Luo Xiujuan did not agree, he felt disappointed.
“Why is this? Dad’s so handsome, how could you keep failing? Maybe you’re not sincere enough. How about peeling potatoes for a few more months?” Qi Xiao joked.
Qi Mingting, amused yet annoyed, tossed an apple from the fruit basket at him.
Qi Xiao quickly caught it and said, “Dad, remember Grandpa’s words about not wasting food? We even ate tree bark during famines. Careful, or I’ll report you.” “Brat, you’re getting too bold,” Qi Mingting retorted.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk. You’re angry out of humiliation. In my opinion, you should be tougher. How can you be so soft when you’re courting someone?” Qi Xiao came up with a bad idea.
“Not everyone’s like you,” Qi Mingting scolded. “You can’t just force love. If you really like someone, be genuine.”!” Qi Mingting warned with a fierce expression, “Don’t be so domineering. Women are not taken by force. If you really like her, don’t have any ill intentions.”
“Don’t worry about me. I’m younger and more charming than you. She’s blind to not like me,” Qi Xiao said indifferently.
Of course, although he said that, he was already wondering if he took his dad’s advice.
“What are you two talking about? You don’t look too good!”
After a while, the old man walked out slowly, followed by the butler. Seeing that the atmosphere between the father and son was a little strange, he asked in amusement.
Qi Xiao walked over with a smile and supported the old man. “What else can I say? My father has been courting someone for half a year, but I don’t know if he can do it or not!”
“You brat, you’re asking for a beating. You’re even worse than me. Do you think I don’t know?” Looking at his son, Qi Mingting was furious.
Hearing the father and son’s argument, Old Master Qi was speechless. “The two of you are the same. Mingting, if you really can’t do it, give up. Madam Luo’s status is different now. I’m afraid she is out of your league.”
“You’re not even worthy of her. It doesn’t feel good, right?” Qi Xiao was indeed his son. Not only did he not feel sorry for his father, but he also made witty remarks.
Qi Mingting gave his disobedient son a stern look and then turned to his father, saying earnestly, “Dad, Xiujuan is not that kind of person. Moreover, Han Shi and Qin Xi both highly approve of me.”
“Ah, while that’s true, we should have self-awareness. What kind of families are the Han and Mu families in the capital city? If you treat Madam Luo well, that’s fine, but if you let her down…
Before the old man could finish his words, Qi Mingting immediately retorted, “Dad, that’s absolutely impossible. In fact, if it weren’t for Xiujuan, I would have planned to live my life like this forever. But ever since I saw her, my frozen heart started beating again. It’s the first time in so many years that I’ve had this kind of feeling. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have worked there, peeling potatoes.”
The old man could tell that his son was determined. He also knew that his son was not a bad person. He patted his shoulder and encouraged, “Then go after her. No matter what, I support you!”
“Thank you, Dad!”
Qi Mingting smiled.
Qi Xiao looked at the time and quickly urged, “Dad, it’s almost time for you to go to work. Do you need me to drop you off?”
“There’s no need. I know how to drive myself.” Qi Mingting stood up. He glanced at his annoying son and left..
