The Sweetness of the Seventies-Chapter 981 - 950: Visit, Deviate

So close in proximity, Tang Qian found his mind running wild, the subtle fragrance inevitably seeping into his nostrils. He took deep breaths until he calmed down.

Qi Zhengmin, lying beside him, couldn’t help but find it amusing; Tang Qian was really quite interesting.

Qi Zhengmin felt tired and swiftly fell asleep.

As for whether Tang Qian would do anything bad, Qi Zhengmin wasn’t at all concerned.

Listening to the steady breathing of the woman beside him, Tang Qian guessed that Qi Zhengmin must be asleep. He began to stealthily move closer to her and then gently embraced her, lying on his side.

But this embrace felt just right.

He fell asleep without realizing it and upon waking, Tang Qian saw Qi Zhengmin’s eyes wide open, looking at him.

"Why don’t you sleep a little longer?" Tang Qian asked, his voice slightly hoarse, as he rubbed his eyes.

"I’m already awake," Qi Zhengmin said with a smile. "To have such a beautiful woman in your arms, and yet you didn’t do anything. You really are—"

Upon hearing this, Tang Qian became uncomfortable and whispered, "I’m here to take care of you—"

In truth, his heart had contemplated what to do, but because he valued and cherished her, he didn’t want their beginning to happen under such circumstances.

"Thank you," Qi Zhengmin kissed his cheek. "Can I go to the bathroom now?"

Actually, she had wanted to go earlier, but seeing Tang Qian sleeping so soundly, she didn’t have the heart to wake him and had been holding it in.

Tang Qian directly carried Qi Zhengmin to the bathroom.

"Step back a bit," Qi Zhengmin said shyly. "Actually, I’m much better now. You can go to your room to wash up first. Come take me to breakfast later."

Tang Qian nodded, "Then be careful."

Tang Qian hurried back to wash up, change his clothes, and then quickly returned.

Qi Zhengmin was also done with washing up and had changed her clothes.

Initially, Tang Qian intended to carry Qi Zhengmin, but she refused his help. Her foot was much better, and she didn’t need to be carried anymore.

What was meant to be three days of fun at the beach ended up being entirely spent in the hotel.

And so, Tang Qian and Qi Zhengmin had shared a bed for three days.

Once Qi Zhengmin’s ankle healed, they returned to New York. frёewebηovel.cѳm

The holiday was almost over.

Qi Shuliang and Annie were also ready to go back to China together with Qi Zhengmin and Tang Qian.

While in Yanjing, Tang Qian eagerly invited Qi Shuliang and Annie to visit his home.

In fact, he wanted the parents to meet and settle the wedding arrangements as soon as possible so he could finally take his bride home!

These days of looking but not being able to touch were truly agonizing.

Because Qi Shuliang and Annie were visiting, He Tiantian personally invited them to stay at her home.

Furthermore, Qi Shuliang and Annie were curious about Tang Qian’s background and agreed to the visit. The family of three, along with their bodyguards and assistant, arrived in Yanjing.

In the evening, everyone chatted in the living room.

"Tiantian, this time Zhengmin has brought a man back with her, named Tang Qian," Qi Shuliang inquired. "What do you think of him?"

He Tiantian was startled and glanced at Qi Zhengmin, unsure whether she had mentioned anything about Tang Qian.

Seeing He Tiantian’s expression, Annie said, "Tiantian, just say it directly, just tell the truth, after all, we will investigate it anyhow."

Upon hearing Annie’s words, He Tiantian smiled and said, "This Tang Qian had some improprieties in his relationships with women in the past. However, since his divorce, he hasn’t been involved with messy women anymore and has been solely focused on his business."

"Ah?" Annie was startled and looked at Qi Zhengmin.

Qi Zhengmin was a bit nervous, wanting to explain, but not knowing how to express it in a way that would make her parents have a better impression of Tang Qian.

Qi Shuliang listened and, squinting his eyes, said, "When did he start pursuing you?"

Qi Zhengmin answered, "At the end of last year."

"Oh," Qi Shuliang nodded, "Did he know of your identity then?"

"Yes," Qi Zhengmin responded, "I knew about his past as well, which was somewhat improper, but after getting to know him better, I found that he’s quite a good person."

Seeing how his daughter felt, Qi Shuliang guessed that she had truly fallen for him.

His daughter had already been hurt by a man once; he didn’t want her to be hurt a second time.

"Hmm, Zhengmin, don’t worry, Dad isn’t a stubborn person, as long as Tang Qian has really reformed, I won’t stand in your way," Qi Shuliang said, "However, can you promise Dad that even if this man isn’t reliable, you won’t be as distressed as you were before, okay?"

The daughter’s past heartbreak had scared Qi Shuliang and Annie.

To help the daughter get over her emotional pain, they had specifically instructed their son to take her back to the country for work.

"Hmm, Dad, Mom, don’t worry. If he doesn’t treat me well, I won’t treat him well either," Qi Zhengmin said, "If he doesn’t like me, then I won’t like him either, and I won’t do anything foolish."

"Good child," Annie smiled, somewhat relieved.

He Tiantian, upon hearing Qi Zhengmin and the others’ conversation, picked up on a few things.

So, the previous heartache had caused such great harm to Qi Zhengmin!

From now on, He Tiantian decided to take even better care of Qi Zhengmin and not let her get hurt.

As for Tang Qian, according to what Brother Yingjie said, the man had indeed reformed.

Let’s hope that’s the case.

After resting for a day in Yanjing, Qi Shuliang went to visit the Tang family.

Old Master Tang and Old Madam Tang personally received him, especially the way they looked at Qi Zhengmin, which was full of joy.

Their son had had his mind on this girl for a long time, and he wasn’t getting any younger; Old Madam Tang had been hoping that her son would get married soon.

Old Master Tang and Qi Shuliang hit it off at first sight and enjoyed a pleasant conversation.

Annie and Old Madam Tang also had a few words to share, as Annie spared no effort in communicating with her mother-in-law, Third Grandma Qi.

Not until Qi Shuliang and Annie left the Tang household did Tang Qian breathe a sigh of relief.

"Father, Mother, how did it go?" asked Tang Qian, "Zhengmin’s parents are going to Nan City tomorrow, and I guess they will pass through Yanjing on their way back. Should we set the wedding date?"

"Ah, I would like to set it," Old Master Tang said with a smile, "but every time I brought up this topic, it was somehow sidestepped by Zhengmin’s father. It seems he is aware of your past."

Hearing his father’s words, Tang Qian became somewhat anxious.

"Does that mean they disagree?" asked Old Madam Tang, "We need to think of a good plan for Xiao Si!"

"What plan can there be, it’s all because this kid messed around in the past, now he’s reaping what he sowed," Old Master Tang glared at his son, but after all, it was his own beloved child, whom he had cherished since childhood, "Tonight, I’ll visit Old Huo’s house to see if I can ask the Huo family to be a matchmaker."
