Siheyuan: The eldest brother of the He family, abuses Shazhu at the beginning

Liu Xiaofang noticed that Ran Qiuye was distracted, patted her shoulder gently, and said softly: "Qiuye, please concentrate when reading the documents. Mom and Dad need your help."

Ran Qiuye raised her head, smiled a little embarrassedly, and said, "Mom, I...I was thinking about the paintings and designs I saw in Dad's company today. They are all so beautiful!"

He Yuliang smiled when he heard Ran Qiuye's words and asked, "Oh? Do you particularly like those paintings? Did you see any work that particularly attracted you?"

Ran Qiuye nodded, his eyes sparkling with excitement, and said, "There is a painting of a night scene of a city with many lights. It looks like a city in a fairy tale world."

He Yuliang and Liu Xiaofang exchanged a knowing smile, and after learning about Ran Qiuye's preferences, they felt warmer in their hearts.

"Qiuye, if you are interested in the future, Dad can take you to learn painting. But now, we still have to read these documents carefully to ensure the smooth progress of the project." He Yuliang said seriously.

Liu Xiaofang took the document and pointed to the details on it and said, "Look, here are the budget arrangements and time nodes we need to confirm. We need to make sure that nothing is missed."

Ran Qiuye listened to her parents' discussion, and although she was a little distracted, she tried her best to concentrate. From time to time, her eyes would look out the window, as if she was looking for the shadow of the night scene painting.

The street outside the window was quiet and peaceful, and the sound of vehicles driving in the distance embellished the tranquility of the night. The clock in the living room quietly passed every scale, and time passed by every second.

"Mom, what does this mean?" Ran Qiuye suddenly asked, pointing to a term on the document.

Liu Xiaofang smiled and explained: "This refers to our promotion plan to ensure the best publicity effect in the market."

Ran Qiuye nodded and continued to look at the document. Although her eyes were a little wandering, she always responded seriously when her parents pointed out the key points, trying her best to understand and learn.

Time passed by unknowingly, and the clock had already pointed to eleven o'clock in the evening. He Yuliang looked at the clock and said, "Xiaofang, Qiuye, have you finished reading the documents? If it's too late, you should rest."

Liu Xiaofang flipped through the last page to make sure nothing was missing, put down the document and said, "I've finished reading it, and everything is clear. Yuliang, let's discuss the promotion strategy in detail tomorrow morning to see if there is anything else that needs to be adjusted."

He Yuliang nodded in agreement. He stood up, walked to the window, looked out at the night, and his heart was filled with anticipation for tomorrow and warmth for his family.

"Qiuye, let's continue talking about those paintings you like tomorrow, okay?" He Yuliang turned around and said gently to Ran Qiuye.

Ran Qiuye nodded, her eyes sparkling with anticipation. Although she was not particularly interested in the details in the document, her parents' company and care made her feel extremely happy and at ease.

As time went by, Ran Qiuye became more sensitive to every subtle change in the family. She began to notice all kinds of details between her father and mother, especially some subtle changes since Yu Li came to their home.

One weekend afternoon, Ran Qiuye was in her room, watching the sunlight slanting in from the window, and a question came to her mind. She suddenly felt a little curious and couldn't wait to know the progress of her father and Yu Li's relationship.

As a new member of their family, Yu Li was a little reserved at first, but as time went on, her relationship with He Yuliang's family gradually became close. She was not only good at cooking and prepared a sumptuous table every day, but also cared about Ran Qiuye very much, often chatting with her and playing with her.

Ran Qiuye knew that Yu Li occupied a special place in her father's heart, and their relationship seemed to be more than just friends or colleagues. She could occasionally catch the emotions revealed in the eye contact between the two during meals. Although she didn't quite understand these complex emotions, she could feel that special warmth.

One afternoon, while her father and Yu Li were watching TV together in the living room, Ran Qiuye quietly ran to Liu Xiaofang's room. She pushed open the door and saw her mother sitting at the desk sorting out documents with a focused and serious expression.

"Mom, I have a question." Ran Qiuye walked to Liu Xiaofang and asked in a low voice.

Liu Xiaofang raised her head and said with a smile: "What's the problem? Is it about school?"

Ran Qiuye shook her head, her eyes revealing curiosity: "It's not a school problem, it's about Dad and Aunt Yu Li."

Liu Xiaofang's heart moved. She knew her daughter was interested in this topic. She smiled and said, "Oh? What do you want to know?"

Ran Qiuye sat on the chair opposite her mother and said seriously, "I want to know if Dad and Aunt Yu Li like each other... a little bit? They often chat together and always sit very close when watching TV."

Liu Xiaofang smiled slightly after hearing this. She did not answer directly, but asked: "What do you think?"

Ran Qiuye frowned, thought seriously for a moment, and then said: "I think they care about each other very much, like friends, but more than friends. When I see them together, I feel that they are very happy."

Liu Xiaofang nodded and said encouragingly, "Well, you are right. Dad and Aunt Yu Li are indeed very good friends and care about each other. The relationship between them is based on mutual respect and trust."

After hearing what her mother said, Ran Qiuye's eyes sparkled with curiosity and understanding: "Will they get married and have children like you and dad?"

Liu Xiaofang smiled gently and said, “This…time will tell us everything. Dad and Aunt Yu Li are very happy now, and if there is such a decision, they will tell us.”

Ran Qiuye nodded, seeming to understand a little, and said, "I think that with Dad and Aunt Yu Li together, the house has become more lively and warm."

Liu Xiaofang felt warm at heart after hearing this. She gently hugged Ran Qiuye and said, "Yes, a family will become better with more love and companionship. No matter what happens in the future, we will always be together, supporting and understanding each other."

Ran Qiuye hugged her mother and felt the warmth and stability of the family. She knew that no matter how the relationship between her father and Aunt Yu Li developed, they were an indispensable part of the family, and their care and love were part of her.
