Liu Jia frowned and remained silent.

Old Liu handed Liu Jia a cigarette.

“I know you’re quite busy, not only studying but also managing your own factory.”

"But you can't just ignore our business here; you'll have to get involved sooner or later."

"Show me, it's much better to get involved sooner rather than later."

At this point, Old Liu paused, and his expression turned dejected.

“You know, people in our line of work are always risking their lives. You never know when something might happen. I really don’t feel at ease if you don’t take over these businesses.”

"Brother Liu, thank you for thinking so highly of me. I know it's because of Xiaoyu, but things between Xiaoyu and me aren't what you think."

The reason why Lao Liu values ​​me so highly is simply because he sees me as his future son-in-law.

However, Liu Jia was certain that he and Liu Yurou were not in a romantic relationship and that they would never go that far.

Right now, it's best to clarify things.

Otherwise, misunderstandings could lead to serious mistakes later on.

Therefore, Liu Jia took the initiative to confess.

Actually, this wasn't the first time Liu Jia had said something like this.

When I said this to Lao Liu before, he didn't take it seriously.

But now that he's been promoted to the point of taking over the factory, Liu Jia has no choice but to bring it up again.

“I know,” Old Liu took a deep drag on his cigarette, then looked at Liu Jia solemnly. “Even though we haven’t been in touch lately, I know everything about you.”

"In the past, I did have the idea of ​​setting you up with Xiaoyu. I also know that Xiaoyu likes you, but you can't force a relationship. I understand that."

"Perhaps you've never liked my daughter, and I accept that. What I admire is you as a person; you have ability and good judgment."

"That's why I had them bring you here."

It would have been better if Old Liu hadn't said these things.

After he said that, Liu Jia was even more at a loss for words.

The two looked at each other, and Lao Liu folded the paper in his hand and handed it to Liu Jia.

"We can think about these things later. Let's have a nice meal today. You haven't seen Xiaoyu in a long time, have you? I'll call her over."

"it is good."

Upon hearing that he was to meet Xiaoyu, Liu Jia did not object and agreed on the spot.

Old Liu turned around and called out, "Nana!"

Soon, the woman who had left returned.

"Brother Liu, are you done with your work? I thought I was going to be hiding in my bedroom all day!"

In front of Liu Jia, the woman started to act coquettishly, walking over in a sweet, coquettish voice and kissing Old Liu on the cheek right there and then.

Liu Jia quickly turned his head.

It's best to avoid watching such offensive scenes.

However, Liu Jia was still somewhat shocked by the woman's audacity.

What kind of era is this? This whole thing is way too open!

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have really thought I had gone back.

"Why are you hiding? She's just a woman. If it weren't for your relationship with Xiaoyu, I would really like to find you someone else."

Old Liu looked at Liu Jia with a smile, already used to this kind of thing.

Liu Jia smiled but didn't say anything.

If you actually bring a woman over, and she laughs at how coquettish the one next to you is, even if she's only half as good as him, your daughter will probably throw a tantrum!

I don't care about myself, it's just a matter of whether you dare to do it.

Old Liu seemed to catch a hint of smugness in Liu Jia's eyes and shook his head speechlessly.

He can act swiftly and decisively on other matters, but he can't be so reckless when it comes to his daughter.

To be honest, I have a good opinion of Liu Jia and hope that Liu Jia and Liu Yurou will have a further relationship.

But what can you do if someone doesn't like your daughter?

If it were anyone else, I might have been able to use some tricks, but Liu Jia is different; this young man is shrewd.

So after thinking about it for a long time, Lao Liu could only let things develop as they were.

"Brother Liu, what are you thinking about? Have you already forgotten Nana?"

While Lao Liu was still observing Liu Jia, Nana next to him had already started shaking Lao Liu's arm.

Not only that, he practically clung to Lao Liu.

"Alright, alright, aren't you ashamed?"

"Have someone go find Xiaoyu and tell her that Liu Jia has arrived and we can have a meal together later."

Nana was waiting for Lao Liu to say something when Lao Liu had already walked towards Liu Jia.

Seeing that there was nothing to explain, Nana turned around.

Despite her coquettish behavior, Liu Jia could tell that this woman was still very afraid of Liu Dongpo.

As for why Yang Yiyi wasn't seen, Liu Jia didn't ask.

It's none of my business anyway, so there's no need to ask so many questions.

Before long, a cheerful sound came over.

Liu Yurou hadn't even entered the door before she started shouting.

"Third Brother, you're here! When did you arrive? Why didn't you tell me?"

After the sound reached everyone's ears, Liu Yurou ran in.

As soon as she entered the room, Liu Yurou went to Liu Jia's side.

He asked while holding Liu Jia's hand.

"When exactly did you arrive? Why didn't you tell me?"

Liu Jia smiled.

"What difference does it make whether I say it or not? Will they still be able to see you?"

"How can that be the same? If I had known you were coming, I would have prepared in advance. Look at me, I didn't even have time to tidy myself up properly."

Liu Yurou pouted and reached out to tidy her hair again.

Then he smiled at Liu Jia.

Seeing that his daughter only had eyes for Liu Jia and not for her father, Liu Dongpo was extremely depressed.

"cough!"

"cough!"

"cough!"

After coughing heavily several times, Liu Dongpo specifically looked at Liu Yurou.

Liu Yurou then asked, "Dad, did you bring Liu Jia here? Why didn't you tell me?"

Finished!

As long as Liu Jia is around, Liu Yurou has no room for any other man!

Even one's own father is the same!

In front of Liu Jia, he, as a father, had no weight whatsoever.

"You only have eyes for your third brother, is there anyone else? I had someone bring Liu Jia over because I wanted to give you a surprise."

"You think about it, how long has it been since you last came here?"

"If it weren't for Liu Jia, you probably wouldn't have come to dinner today, even if he had asked you."

Old Liu's words were full of complaints, and Liu Yurou rolled her eyes.

"You don't lack company, and you're so busy every day, you don't have time for me. I know my place, so I won't bother you."

Old Liu gasped, staring at Liu Yurou in disbelief.

have to say.

Liu Yurou's words left him with no way to refute them.

However, to Lao Liu's delight, Liu Yurou actually said so much all at once.

You should know that Liu Yurou used to be very sparing with words when she saw him.

To put it more bluntly.

This girl would never say four words if she could only say three.

Having said so much today, Liu Dongpo was genuinely happy.

After laughing twice more, Liu Dongpo finally spoke.

"You can't blame me for this. I've been following your third brother's advice, so I'm indeed a bit busy right now."

"I don't believe you can listen to other people's opinions; that would be strange!"

Liu Yurou turned her head to the side, not believing Liu Dongpo's words at all.

Liu Jia was speechless.

Seeing this, Nana quietly took two steps back.

Even though he is now a favorite of Liu Dongpo, he is still nothing in front of Liu Yurou.

Nana can still distinguish this point.

"I'm listening, I'm listening, my good daughter. You've introduced me to a capable person. Trust your father, as long as we have Liu Jia's house, it won't be long before we're all settled..."

Before Liu Dongpo could finish speaking, Liu Yurou waved her hand.

"Forget it, I don't want to hear about your business. If Third Brother is willing to help, he can; if he's not, don't force him."

"Also, Third Brother is a college student now, and he has a lot to learn. You can't let him get too tired."

"I'll think about the rest more and give you more instructions later."

Liu Dongpo nodded silently.

As the old saying goes, once a son grows up, he is no longer under his mother's control.

Although he was Liu Yurou's father, he wasn't her son. But Liu Yurou had grown up and no longer listened to him.

Liu Dongpo even began to worry whether Liu Yurou would acknowledge him as her father if she got married one day.

"Third Brother, do you think I've changed recently?"

Liu Yurou took a step back and then spun around in front of Liu Jia.

Liu Jia looked at him and said, "He's lost a little weight, and his hair has grown quite long; he can tie it up now."

"Any more?"

"And you've grown taller, haven't you? You're taller than when I first saw you."

"any left?"

Liu Yurou kept laughing and kept asking questions.

Liu Jia couldn't say anything more, so he could only shake his head.

Liu Yurou snorted and pouted, saying, "I knew you only care about appearances."

"What's wrong? Has your thinking and knowledge changed? I get it, you want me to praise you for having more knowledge, right?"

Liu Yurou smiled and nodded.

"You have no idea how many books I've been reading lately. I've been so obedient, and all the teachers say I'm exceptionally smart!"

Liu Jia's words struck a chord with Liu Yurou.

When talking about her academic progress, Liu Yurou started to talk non-stop again.

At first, Liu Dongpo watched from the side.

But Liu Yurou kept talking, so Liu Dongpo had no choice but to sit on the sofa.

I brought this girl over so she could have a good talk with me, but I didn't expect her to cling to Liu Jia like this.

And I couldn't even get a word in edgewise when I wanted to say something, it was truly... incredibly frustrating.

Watching Liu Jia and Liu Yurou quietly, Old Liu felt a wave of frustration wash over him again.

They are clearly a perfect match, so why can't they be together?

His daughter is both pretty and cute, and Liu Jia is mature and steady.

They should be a match made in heaven.

Thinking of this, Liu Dongpo couldn't help but think of Guo Xiaoyan again.

Liu Dongpo had never met Liu Jia's ex-wife, but he had heard about her from Liu Yurou more than once.

That must be a woman different from her own daughter.

She must be very charming!

Otherwise, why wouldn't Liu Jia date other women after his divorce?

The reason Liu Jia became like this is definitely related to Guo Xiaoyan.

"Perhaps I should go see her."

Liu Dongpo casually uttered a sentence.

Nana, who was standing next to her, felt a sudden unease.

Although Nana hadn't spent much time with Liu Dongpo, she had a good understanding of his temperament.

When he said that, Nana instinctively felt it was related to women.

"Brother Liu, do you not like her anymore?"
