Siheyuan: No One Can Be Left Behind

Chapter 408 Missed Opportunity

Yu Li helped Sun Xiu into the house and asked, "Have you eaten? I'll heat up the food for you."

Sun Xiu nodded to express her gratitude, and Yu Li then took the food to the kitchen.

Only then did Sun Xiu glance at Ran Qiuye and said, "Teacher Ran, I made a fool of myself today."

Ran Qiuye smiled and shook her head, "No one wants to encounter such a thing, so how could we laugh at you?"

Sun Xiu smiled back and said, "It's my bad luck. If I had figured it out earlier, even if it was just one day earlier, I wouldn't be in this situation today."

Sun Xiu glanced at Li Dongfang secretly. Li Dongfang touched his nose awkwardly and said, "You can't say that. Maybe the situation will be worse if it's one day earlier. You can't say for sure, right?"

Sun Xiu glanced at him and said, "You men are all the same. You are always looking at the pot while eating from the bowl. You are being shameless when you say that."

Li Dongfang immediately looked at Ran Qiuye guiltily and smiled awkwardly.

Ran Qiuye felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange, but she did not associate Li Dongfang with Sun Xiu. She comforted Sun Xiu and said, "Don't think too much. No matter what, you have to think about the child."

Li Dongfang also said: "Yes, the child is important. You can just ignore Xu Damao."

"So, you also agree that Xu Damao and I should divorce?" Sun Xiu glanced at Li Dongfang.

Li Dongfang was suddenly speechless. He couldn't just say that you divorced him and followed me.

"That's not what I meant... What I meant was that you should put the child first right now. Once the child is born, how can the father not love the child?" Li Dongfang secretly comforted Sun Xiu.

Ran Qiuye felt that given the relationship between her and Sun Xiu, it was not easy to say much, so she got up and went to the kitchen to help.

Sun Xiu finally had the chance to have a private conversation with Li Dongfang. She approached Li Dongfang and said, "You heartless man, are you really going to let your child call Xu Damao dad?"

Li Dongfang had never thought about this question. Sun Xiu brought it up, and Li Dongfang remembered it. He frowned and asked, "What are your plans for this matter?"

Sun Xiujiao snorted and said, "What should I plan? What can I plan? If you don't think of a solution, I don't care who will be the father of the child."

Li Dongfang immediately gritted his teeth and said, "Even if you and Xu Damao divorce, I can't openly recognize the child."

"That's your problem, you should think about it yourself. I don't care anyway." Sun Xiu sat back proudly.

Just when Li Dongfang was about to say something, Yu Li and Ran Qiuye came out with the hot meals and said, "Okay, eat quickly. Your irregular diet is not good for the child."

Sun Xiu didn't hesitate to pick up the bowl and chat with Yu Li and Ran Qiuye while eating.

Li Dongfang's mind was full of the issue of his child at this time. He felt uncomfortable with the idea of ​​his child calling someone else dad and taking someone else's surname. He immediately stood up with an irritated look on his face and said, "I'm going out to smoke a cigarette."

Lin Shu, who was drinking tea and eating melon seeds at the door, saw Li Dongfang coming out. He looked annoyed and said softly, "Are you aware of the trouble? Aren't you very capable? Can't you handle it this time?"

Li Dongfang lit a cigarette, glanced at Lin Shu and said, "What? Do you have a solution?"

Lin Shu stood up, patted the melon seed shells on his body and said: "Why, you want to know? If you want to know, please beg me?" Lin Shu was not serious for once.

Li Dongfang rolled his eyes, looked up at the sky and said, "You can say it or not, it's up to you."

Lin Shu curled his lips and said, "Aren't you the best at hiding a beautiful woman in a golden house? Just continue."

Li Dongfang blinked when he heard it, not understanding it for a moment, and turned to look at Lin Shu.

Lin Shu raised his eyebrows, looking as if he knew nothing, and walked towards the Qin family's house.

It seems that I'm going to sleep over there tonight.

After finishing a cigarette, Li Dongfang still couldn't think of a good way to settle Sun Xiu openly. After all, if she got close to him right after the divorce and gave the child the surname Li, it would be impossible for others not to become suspicious.

Throw the cigarette butt on the ground and stomp it out. Don't think about it anymore. Things will work out when the time comes. I'll talk about it later.

When he turned around, he saw Ran Qiuye standing behind him without saying a word. He quickly forced a smile and said, "Why did you come out?"

Ran Qiuye glanced at Li Dongfang suspiciously and said, "Yu Li and Sun Xiu went to sleep first. I just wanted to come out for some fresh air."

"Well, then you should go to bed early too. I'll go to bed too." Li Dongfang nodded.

Ran Qiuye quickly stopped Li Dongfang and said, "Can you wait a while before going to sleep so we can talk?"

Li Dongfang could probably guess what Ran Qiuye wanted to say, but he didn't have much in mind today. He felt exhausted both physically and mentally, so he said, "I'm very tired today. How about we talk about it tomorrow?"

Having said that, Ran Qiuye didn't know what to say anymore and could only step aside to let Li Dongfang enter the house.

Ran Qiuye sat in Lin Shu's seat and stared outside for a while. She felt that these two days were very strange. Suddenly, she felt a sense of distance from Li Dongfang, who was getting along well with her.

Thinking about what Yu Li said, he felt that he should take a gamble. After all, he who strikes first will gain the upper hand, while those who strike later will suffer the consequences.

He immediately got up and washed up, then went to check on Yu Li and Sun Xiu. He found that they had already gone to bed and seemed to be asleep, then he quietly entered Li Dongfang's room.

The next day, Li Dongfang opened his eyes and looked at the roof. He felt that last night was a bit magical. He could not remember what he said to Ran Qiuye. Then he fell asleep in a daze, hugging Ran Qiuye. He didn't know whether Ran Qiuye left at night or in the morning.

But thinking about it now, Li Dongfang was secretly annoyed that he had missed such a good opportunity. He didn't know if he would have such an opportunity again next time.

It's too late to say anything now. It's all Sun Xiu's fault. He has ruined my Taoist faith.

Forget it, don’t think about it, get up.

When he arrived at the steel mill and just entered the office, he saw Sister Wang Fang welcoming him in warmly.

"Dongfang, I made some tea for you. See how strong it is."

"Dongfang, are you tired? Let me massage your shoulders."

Li Dongfang was a little frightened by the sudden change in the sisters. He carefully sat behind his desk and said, "What happened today? Something seems wrong with you two."

Wang Fang smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to care so much about us. I heard my dad say that."

"Ah? What did Minister Wang say?" Li Dongfang asked.

"You are still pretending to us. My dad has told me that you are going to transfer us to the steel rolling mill to be by your side. You also said that you will make us deputy section chiefs in three years and full section chiefs in five years." Wang Hui said, gently pinching Li Dongfang's shoulder.

Li Dongfang just remembered this and said suddenly, "I thought it was something else. It's not a small matter. You scared me like this."
