Daddy! Come Home for Dinner!-Chapter 588: The Little Fox Is Still No Match for the Old Fox
Ruan Danchen and Qi Chenglin also looked over immediately.
Zhao Gushen had a smile on his face, brimming with confidence: "I said, I want to go register for marriage with Ye Fei, go to the civil affairs bureau to get the license."
"You’re not that old either, is looking after the kid too exhausting for you? Such a simple thing, and you still didn’t get it?" Zhao Gushen teased Qi Chengzhi again. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
Qi Chengzhi ignored him and asked, "Why are you guys getting the license now? In such a hurry?"
"Ye Fei didn’t agree before. She wanted us to know each other better." Zhao Gushen explained, "There are too many people at the event today. How do I introduce her and Xiao Mo later? It’s better to have a formal identity. It’s not easy getting Ye Fei to agree to register, so of course, we have to hurry up."
Zhao Gushen laughed: "I’m afraid if we delay, Ye Fei might change her mind."
Ye Fei wrinkled her nose at him from the side. Does she seem like someone who doesn’t keep her word and goes back on it?
"So we’re going quickly, get the license, and then come back. There’s plenty of time, we should be able to make it back before the wedding starts." Zhao Gushen said, "I’ll leave my son in your care for a while."
"Of course, no problem." Qi Chengzhi said.
Even if Zhao Gushen didn’t call, if they hadn’t seen Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei, they would still take care of Xiao Mo.
Having hung up the call, Song Yu hurriedly asked Qi Chengzhi, "What happened?"
Zhao Gushen’s phone was on speaker, but Qi Chengzhi’s was not.
So Song Yu didn’t hear what Zhao Gushen said.
Qi Chengzhi didn’t dare let Xiao Mo hear.
Even though his time and interactions with Xiao Mo were limited.
But during this limited time, Qi Chengzhi had learned quite a bit about this little guy.
If Xiao Mo knew Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei went to register without him, he would definitely get upset.
He might even try to sneak off to find Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei on his own.
But the little guy definitely doesn’t know the way, yet he has quite the ability.
If he got lost, how would they explain to Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei?
Old sly Qi Chengzhi had Xiao Mo figured out completely.
So, he whispered to Song Yu about Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei temporarily going to get the marriage license.
Song Yu also whispered, "Those two really don’t follow the usual path. Having a kid first, then dating. Even getting the license was all of a sudden."
Qi Chengzhi couldn’t help but laugh: "I never expected Zhao Gushen to be so unconventional. And Ye Fei even goes along with him; they really are meant to be together."
It’s rare for two people to get along so well.
Given Zhao Gushen’s stubborn temper, Ye Fei actually likes it.
That’s really rare.
"What’s going on? What’s going on?" Ruan Danchen scooted over and asked Song Yu secretly.
Qi Chenglin also came up beside Qi Chengzhi, didn’t say anything, but just looked at Qi Chengzhi with his eyes full of curiosity.
Qi Chengzhi: "..."
So, Qi Chengzhi and Song Yu, the husband and wife pair, quietly relayed the story to the other husband and wife.
All sneaky, making sure Xiao Mo didn’t know.
The little guy was munching on a pig-shaped cake, watching the four of them acting all secretive.
As he ate, he suddenly asked out of the blue: "Uncle, where are my mom and dad?"
Song Yu and Ruan Danchen were dumbfounded.
Qi Chengzhi, with his craftiness, remained composed and said, "They left the gift money for the bride and groom at home and went back to get it."
Song Yu was thoroughly impressed.
Qi Chengzhi’s ability to come up with excuses is excellent.
In such a short time, Song Yu was so stumped by the question that she couldn’t think of any good excuse.
Qi Chengzhi managed to come up with a reasonable excuse in such a short time.
Bravo!
The little fox is no match for the old fox, after all.
When Xiao Mo heard this, he didn’t suspect anything.
He just thought Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei were a bit forgetful!
Such an important thing, and they could forget it.
Qi Chengzhi was worried Xiao Mo might think about it and figure it out, and start to doubt again.
So he was considering how to divert Xiao Mo’s attention.
Who knew Qi Youjin was so helpful, he asked Xiao Mo, "Xiao Mo, have you played Peace Elite?"
"No, what’s that?" The little guy had indeed never played it.
"It’s a shooting game, really fun!" Qi Youjin fiddled with his phone to show Xiao Mo, "Look, I’m already a Super Ace!"
"Come, download it, and we’ll team up to play!" Qi Youjin said.
Qi Chengzhi twitched his eye.
He wanted to say that if Qi Youjin’s competition buddies knew the age of the Super Ace player, he wondered what they’d think.
But fortunately, this little crisis was thus averted.
Xiao Mo’s attention was completely attracted.
***
Zhao Gushen and Ye Fei were on their way home to get the household registration book.
Ye Fei thought of the matter Zhao Gushen briefly mentioned earlier regarding the Zhao Family.
Because at that time, the most important thing between them was the marriage registration.
So, Zhao Gushen didn’t go into detail about the Zhao Family issues, and Ye Fei didn’t ask further.
Anyway, they had nothing to do now, so Ye Fei asked, "Earlier, you mentioned that the Zhao Family head can only be someone who has awakened the family head’s abilities."
"Yes." Zhao Gushen nodded, "Not just the Zhao Family, the Eight Great Families are all like that."
"You said you have relatives in the Zhao Family who are even more difficult than my family members." Ye Fei continued.
"And what they do is even scarier than your family." Zhao Gushen said, "Money, power, authority. These things are very enticing, and some people are willing to pay a lot for these, do a lot of evil things."
"But these acts are always based on one’s abilities. Some people have enough conditions and abilities, so their misdeeds might be bigger. In your family, Xu Huizhen and Ye Ning, they have ambition but not enough resources to back it up, so their misdeeds are smaller."
"But that doesn’t mean they’re any kinder. Once they have enough resources, they would also commit larger evil deeds. We have relatives like that in our family."
"They also covet the position of family head?" Ye Fei asked.
"Of course, who wouldn’t want to stand higher to have more power in their hands?" Zhao Gushen spoke nonchalantly about such a serious topic, as if he didn’t care much.
"Being born into the Zhao Family, they inherently possess much more than ordinary people. Having tasted the sweetness of money, power, and authority, it’s inevitable they would think, I’ve gotten so much just by being in this position. How much more could I have if I controlled the entire Zhao Family?"
"Because the possibility is so enticing, it’s natural that some are drawn to that position." Zhao Gushen said.
"It’s like the ancient competition for the throne. Even after the crown prince is decided, why are so many princes unwilling to accept it? Even when the emperor is in place, why are some still unwilling and want to take it over?" Zhao Gushen smiled and said.
