When Qu Datou was asked by his son, he was speechless for a moment and said hesitantly: "That...me."
When Qu Lianjie saw this, he looked at his father and said seriously: "Dad, it's useless for you to do this. If I really don't want to come, anyone can persuade me. Don't bother my mother next time!"
"Who is the father between the two of us?" Qu Datou said angrily while sitting on the chair.
Qu Lianjie replied with a smile: "Of course you are the father, but you can't bully my mother!"
"How did I bully your mother? Didn't I just ask her to persuade you? It seemed like I had made a big mistake~" Qu Datou frowned after saying that. He was also a little angry now.
When Qu Lianjie heard his father say this, he was furious. Thinking of the injustice his mother had suffered over the years, he stood up angrily and said in a very excited tone:
"You have the nerve to say that you don't know what's going on with my mother. When you suddenly came back to file for divorce with her, have you ever thought about what to do with her as an uneducated woman?"
"If it weren't for my grandma's kindness, my mother wouldn't be alive today. She has almost forgotten these things over the years. Today, you actually called her to persuade me because of the child born by that woman."
"What's the difference between this and stabbing her in the heart with a knife?" After saying this, Qu Lianjie's eyes turned red and he glared at his father, Qu Datou.
"I..." Qu Datou heard what his son said and realized that he did something wrong and did not consider his ex-wife's feelings.
The little anger in his heart also disappeared, but although he realized that he had done something wrong, as a father, he still couldn't help but admit his mistake to his son.
You looked at me and I looked at you. The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment. It lasted like this for more than ten seconds.
In the end, Qu Lianjie took a few deep breaths and said in a calm tone: "In the future, if you have anything to do with women, don't bother my mother!"
"I won't call her in the future, okay?" Qu Datou said angrily.
Qu Lianjie saw that he had achieved his goal and had finished venting his anger, so he stood up and said, "Nothing happens, so I'll leave first~"
"Lianjie, wait a minute~" Qu Datou called out to his son.
"Is there anything else?" Qu Lianjie stopped and asked with some confusion.
Qu Datou licked his lips and said in a low tone: "Lianjie, my father did something wrong in this matter. I will apologize to your mother later!"
Then the scene changed and he said earnestly: "But this matter has nothing to do with your sister. Can you go out and apologize to Xiao Xiao later?"
"You also know the specific situation. Your sister has been arrogant since she was a child. What you just said is not the same as slapping her in the face in public?"
"Don't even think about it. Let me apologize to her. Have you woken up yet?" Qu Lianjie was almost furious at his father's words.
Qu Datou sighed after hearing this, stood up and patted his son on the shoulder. At this moment, he suddenly realized that his son was already taller than him, and his tone was a little lonely:
"No matter what, you are all brothers and sisters. When we are all gone, only Xiao Xiao has the closest relationship with you in the world. Dad is doing this to ease the relationship between you brother and sister."
"You are now thirty years old, so you should be able to understand the difficulties of a father. Dad is almost 60 this year. I can't watch my two children quarrel every day when they meet. You are the elder brother, so I just I can come and advise you~"
Qu Lianjie's character is a typical one that takes the tough and refuses to accept the soft. After hearing his father's words and seeing the white hair on his temples, his expression softened.
After thinking about it seriously, old man Qu, apart from being a little sorry for his mother these years, has been kind to himself. In addition, he had finished venting his anger just now.
Then Qu Lianjie said with a wry smile: "Dad, even if I have this heart, you should understand that your precious daughter, she may not appreciate it~"
"Oh~ forget it!" Qu Datou sighed. His son was right. His daughter's character has not changed over the years.
"Then I'm leaving~" After Qu Lianjie said that, he stood up and left the study.
After arriving in the living room, he said hello politely: "Aunt Xu, Xiaoxiao, I have something to do at my company and I have to leave first~"
"Hey, go back slowly!" Xu Li replied with a forced smile.
Qu Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, curled her lips and said: "Tsk, whether you want to leave or not is the same as asking you to come~"
Qu Lianjie didn't say anything when he heard this. He just turned around and spread his hands with his father who came out of the study behind him, saying, "You see what I said, right?"
"Go away, go away~" Qu Datou waved his hand impatiently.
Qu Xiaoxiao was sitting on the sofa. When she saw this scene, she secretly swore that she must do something, otherwise she would lose her status in her father's heart.
Thinking of this, Xiaoxiao concentrated her wits and turned to her mother and said, "Mom, buy me a house. I don't want to live at home~"
Xu Li was stunned when she heard this: "It's not like we don't have a place for you to live at home, why do you want to move out suddenly!
Follow "You have been abroad for the past few years, and now you are finally back home. Just stay at home and spend time with your mother~"
"Yes, Xiaoxiao, why do you suddenly want to move out? Do you dislike your parents?" Qu Datou said with a smile as he walked past.
Qu Xiaoxiao had already thought of her words, so she stood up and hugged her father's arm, saying coquettishly: "Dad, I'm 24 years old, I should learn to be independent~"
"What you say makes you look like my daughter, Qu Datou~" Qu Datou said with a look of pride on his face.
Only now did he find the feeling of being a father. When he was with his son just now, he always felt that they were equals.
Xu Li looked at her husband and said in a very dissatisfied tone: "Lao Qu, how can you be a father like you? Your child wants to move out and you don't even try to persuade him!"
"No matter what, I don't agree!" After saying this, Xu Li turned her head away angrily, no longer looking at the father and daughter in front of her.
"Dad~" Qu Xiaoxiao shook her father's arm upon seeing this, indicating that it was his turn to take action.
Qu Datou patted his daughter's hand and gave her a look, telling her to calm down.
Then he sat on the sofa and whispered to his wife:
"Old Xu, there is an old saying that goes without saying that if you don't cut it, you will never learn to fly under the wings of your parents. If Xiaoxiao and her brother Lianjie had always lived at home, he wouldn't have achieved as much as he has today~"
Xu Li frowned, feeling very unhappy about her husband's words. She admitted that Qu Lianjie was now great, but she wouldn't mention it in her ears!
At this time, Qu Xiaoxiao also sat over and rested his head on his mother's shoulder: "Mom, just listen to me. I promise to come back to see you and my dad often~"
"Okay, okay, okay, I really can't defeat you two. I'll buy you a house later~" Xu Li looked helpless.
Qu Datou interjected from the side:
"What kind of house should I buy? I remember that the house where Lian Jie lived in Pudong was vacant, so he asked Xiao Xiao to move there. It was originally prepared for her anyway~"
"I won't live in the house he lived in~" Qu Xiaoxiao pouted.
When she thought of her mortal enemy exposing her shortcomings just now, her teeth itched with hatred, let alone living in the house where he had lived.
Xu Li heard this and lightly hit her daughter, pretending to be displeased and said:
"You kid, even if our family has money, we can't spend it like this. If you don't want to move, that's fine. Mom can't let you go anyway!"
"Okay, Lao Xu, our family doesn't lack the money. If Xiaoxiao wants to buy it, let her buy it~" Qu Datou said decisively.
"Dad is the best~" Qu Xiaoxiao turned back to her father and cooed.
