She held the bouquet closer and smelled it. Then she looked at Li Qingcang, who was standing next to her. For a moment, she felt as if she owned the world.
“Brother Li.”
Li Qingcang’s eyes were filled with affection. His eyes were gentle, and his voice was low and sexy, “Wrong way of addressing me again.”
Ye Tianxin stuck her tongue out playfully. “I’m sorry. I just have a bad memory.”
Seeing this, Li Qingcang put his arms around Ye Tianxin’s thin waist and motioned her to his side.
“Wait.”
Ye Tianxin put the flowers in her hand on the desk behind the window.
She was blushing and smiling as she walked towards Li Qingcang. Li Qingcang was tall, so she needed to tiptoe to kiss him.
“Night.”
Li Qingcang couldn’t get enough of Ye Tianxin’s lips. They were as delicate as cherries. He found it hard to control his urge. He wanted her so bad.
Ye Tianxin’s long hair and skirt swayed with the gentle breeze.
Li Qingcang held Ye Tianxin’s small face carefully, as if he was holding a rare treasure.
Two young hearts beating wildly…
“Ahem.” Someone cleared their throat.
As the two of them were kissing passionately, Xie Xuning and Li Xingchen were standing not far away. Xie Xuning felt his temples throb when he saw them in that manner.
It was so irritating.
He hadn’t been away for that long, but Li Qingcang, the big bad wolf, was already preying on his princess.
“Dad.”
When Li Qingcang and Ye Tianxin noticed that there were people around, the usually composed Li Qingcang couldn’t help but blush.
Ye Tianxin was red with shame. She buried her face in Li Qingcang’s arms and said softly, “Dad.”
“Oh, to be young and in love…”
Li Xingchen snickered. She used to think that her brother was stupid.
Unexpectedly, her once stupid brother came to his senses, and his emotional intelligence soared.
He was bringing flowers and kissing.
Li Qingcang had gradually become an eyesore to Xie Xuning. But what could he do?
His daughter already had her sights set on Li Qingcang. If he told her that Li Qingcang wasn’t good, he would drive a wedge between them.
He knew this.
“Tianxin, Xiao Cang, since you are both here, I have something to discuss with you,” Xie Xuning said as if he had not seen anything.
Li Qingcang took Ye Tianxin’s hand and walked towards Xie Xuning. The two men were now at odds with each other.
Xie Xuning saw their hands intertwined. He sighed, suppressing the irritation in his heart.
“Sit here.”
The four of them sat down at the stone table, and Uncle He motioned for the servant to serve tea.
Ye Tianxin and Li Xingchen had two cups of herbal tea, while Xie Xuning and Li Qingcang had two cups of tieguanyin.
“Tianxin, this is Li Xingchen, your cousin Xie Xinghe’s wife and Li Qingcang’s sister. I invited her today to help prepare the banquet.”
A little surprised, Ye Tianxin looked at Xie Xuning with wide eyes and asked, “Dad, what banquet?”
“We’re having a banquet to officially introduce you as my daughter. I can’t keep hiding you here in Lang Garden. It just so happened that ever since Lang Garden was renovated, I have never held a banquet here. I don’t know much about holding a banquet, so I asked your sister-in-law to come and help.”
Li Qingcang was a little upset when he heard Xie Xuning telling Ye Tianxin to call Li Xingchen sister-in-law. He felt that Ye Tianxin calling her Sister Xingchen instead was more pleasant to his ears.
“But, Dad, you and I haven’t done a DNA test yet.”
Ye Tianxin thought that the paternity test was more important. So if someone was doubtful and questioned her identity, she could throw the results at them.
“How about we wait until we’re done with the paternity test and the results are out, and then make plans?”
