Chapter 1683: Chapter 1683

In the end, Li Yifei brought Lin Qiong to Ye Yunzhu’s room. Ye Yunzhu had just put her daughter to sleep, not expecting Li Yifei to come. Hearing the knock, she went downstairs, opened the door, and upon seeing Li Yifei, her face lit up with joy. Just as she was about to rush over, she saw Lin Qiong step out from behind Li Yifei, and Ye Yunzhu stopped in her tracks.

Li Yifei smiled and opened his arms, embracing Ye Yunzhu. With a gentle squeeze, Ye Yunzhu felt heat surge through her body, forgetting everything else.

Tonight, she had been in a state of joy continuously, so much so that her thoughts seemed to slow.

Lin Qiong gave her a sidelong glance but said nothing. On the way over, Lin Qiong and Li Yifei had been hugging and kissing for quite a while; otherwise, they wouldn’t have taken so long to arrive. Lin Qiong squeezed in and changed her shoes on her own.

After holding Ye Yunzhu for a while, Li Yifei let go and changed his shoes as well.

"Don’t look at me, I just want to sleep with him, even if we can’t do anything," Lin Qiong said directly while heading upstairs.

Ye Yunzhu blinked, then smiled gently and said, "It’s fine, I don’t mind."

"It wouldn’t matter if you did mind, I’ve come all this way, I’m not leaving," Lin Qiong turned back, showing her white teeth as she grinned mischievously.

The three of them bathed in two groups. If it were before, Li Yifei wouldn’t miss such an opportunity, and even if he did, the two women wouldn’t let him off the hook. But now, considering his health, the two women went to bathe first.

Li Yifei went to check on his daughter, who was still hugging a cute doll. He couldn’t help but smile slightly.

After all three had finished bathing, Li Yifei lay in the middle, with a woman on each side. They chatted about the things that had happened recently, each sharing their stories and discussing the future.

When Lin Qiong mentioned children, Li Yifei and Ye Yunzhu suddenly fell silent, both recalling Lin Qiong’s injury from a stray bullet a month ago that wounded her uterus. Though the combined True Qi of Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan had healed it completely, no one knew for sure if she could conceive.

Given Li Yifei’s current situation, they couldn’t verify this personally. There was a thought to extract Li Yifei’s sperm for Lin Qiong’s artificial insemination to see if the embryo could develop.

But the problem is... Lin Qiong wasn’t aware of this, and the family hadn’t shared it with her, so this idea was set aside.

Now, hearing Lin Qiong bring up the topic of having children, Li Yifei and Ye Yunzhu felt a bit awkward and surprised because Lin Qiong had always said she wasn’t ready for a child, saying she could barely take care of herself, let alone a child. Check latest chapters at 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢•𝕟𝕖𝕥

But bringing it up now indicated a shift in her mindset.

Lin Qiong talked for a while and, noticing their minimal responses, presumed Li Yifei was down due to the Worm situation, so she switched the topic to something else.

The three talked for a while longer, then closed their eyes to sleep, with each woman holding one of Li Yifei’s arms and their faces resting on his shoulders.

They had a dreamless night, sleeping soundly, but another family of three spent the night restless, completely stunned by the news that Li Yifei was the Li Family Head.

At this point, Qi Tianlong no longer thought about making Li Yifei compensate for his car or saving face, as the gap between them was too large. Qi Tianlong might be rich, but he was far from truly wealthy. After learning much about Li Yifei’s position as Li Family Head, Qi Tianlong chickened out. Coupled with some words from his parents, Qi Tianlong decided to prepare an apology to Li Yifei as soon as dawn broke.

As for Ye Yunzhu, he didn’t dare entertain any thoughts, as it was evident to anyone with eyes that there was definitely something between Li Yifei and Ye Yunzhu.

In the morning, Qi Tianlong’s parents called Xu Zhenguo, speaking with utmost politeness. After stammering for half a day, they finally broached the subject. Hearing about this, Xu Zhenguo and his wife exchanged glances, not agreeing to anything but saying they’d look into it. After hanging up, Xu Zhenguo told his wife about it, and Xu Shanshan’s mother said skeptically, "That’s quite a coincidence, how come Yifei just happened to pick up that Yunzhu girl?"

"It must have been a coincidence; he wouldn’t go out of his way to trouble Qi Tianlong," Xu Zhenguo dispelled his wife’s wild suspicion. After hearing about this, Xu Shanshan’s mother’s first thought was whether Li Yifei was displeased with their matchmaking for Xu Shanshan, so he went to cause trouble.

If that were the case, the younger daughter and her husband might have an issue, and that’s what the elderly couple aimed to find out. As for Qi Tianlong, he was just a tool they coincidentally happened to have.

So, regarding the Qi family’s request, Xu Zhenguo and his wife ignored it, calling Xu Shanshan to ask about the situation. Xu Shanshan had no idea about the matter, so the old couple didn’t take it seriously.

The Qi family waited half the day. Facing Xu Zhenguo’s family now, they didn’t dare show any arrogance, and their attitude greatly changed from before. By the afternoon, they could no longer sit still and, bearing gifts, went to Xu Zhenguo’s home, only to find that Xu Zhenguo and his wife had gone shopping and wouldn’t return for two hours.

Seeing Xu Zhenguo and his wife arrive, Qi Tianlong’s parents excitedly approached and couldn’t help but say, "Brother Xu, in all things wrong, it’s the kid’s fault. He’s studied so much over the years he’s become foolish, and he’s poor at doing things."

Xu Zhenguo said, "What’s the matter? What’s wrong?"

"About last night... it was all Tianlong’s fault. So, we wanted Tianlong to apologize to Li... Clan leader Li, but we can’t enter the Li family, so we hoped Brother Xu could help us make the connection!"

Before Xu Zhenguo could respond, Xu Shanshan’s mother chuckled, "It’s just kids squabbling; there’s no need for this."

"We must, we must. He’s done wrong, and he has to apologize. Brother Xu, sister-in-law, please consider it..."

"Uncle and Aunt, it was my fault. I sincerely wish to apologize to Brother Li. I was supposed to attend the donation event on behalf of my parents last night, and Deputy Mayor Ye hosted the evening banquet. I intended to give the Deputy Mayor a ride home, but my lousy driver got into a scuffle with Brother Li. I had too much to drink and spoke out of turn; it was my own fault," Qi Tianlong, standing behind them, couldn’t help but put on a pitiable expression.

But saying this only made things worse, immediately souring the expressions of Xu Zhenguo and his wife. Xu Zhenguo gave a cold snort and said, "In this case, there’s even less need to apologize; Yifei wouldn’t have the time."

It wasn’t much initially, but Qi Tianlong had to bring up Ye Yunzhu, which Xu Zhenguo and his wife couldn’t stand. They could accept Li Yifei having several women, but they couldn’t tolerate outsiders making sardonic remarks in their presence.
