"Dimples, do you know what jealousy is? Hm?"

Dimples blinked and said, "Yes! It’s that feeling of sourness in your heart, right?" 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Tong Xi was at a loss. How did this little one know?

Before Tong Xi could ask, Yunqing spoke.

"Dimples, how do you know that?"

Dimples beamed, glanced over at Su Yebai, and said earnestly,

"Because I notice, every time Uncle Ouyang comes, my dad gets jealous, and the expression on his face is so funny!"

Although Dimples thought she was whispering to Yunqing and Tong Xi, Su Yebai, with his sharp ears, heard it and immediately started coughing.

Oh, daughter, you’re really... putting your dad in a tough spot!

Is it really okay to expose your dad’s wounds like this in front of everyone?

Everyone was stunned for three seconds before bursting into laughter.

Indeed, nothing escapes a child’s eyes.

Over there, Han Mengya raised an eyebrow, "Rival? Hmm?"

He Yunzhi smiled faintly, "Just a friend!"

Su Yebai’s expression looked rather uncomfortable!

How to put it?

Even though He Yunzhi only sees Ouyang Li as a friend, Ouyang Li’s feelings might not be as simple as she thinks!

And now, although He Yunzhi has temporarily accepted him, the barriers in her heart from these years are not something that can be overcome in a day or two.

But, he really wants to get married.

He knows that her willingness to accept him again is largely because of Dimples.

Once, he brought up marriage to He Yunzhi, and she seemed somewhat resistant.

She said, let’s just leave it like this. After all, Dimples now has a dad and is happy.

Marriage is just a piece of paper, not that important.

If two people can be together, even without a marriage certificate, they can still be together.

If they can’t be together, even a marriage certificate won’t make it meaningful.

After saying this, she turned and went to the kitchen.

At that moment, Su Yebai realized that she had long lost her expectations for marriage.

And his heart sank with a thud.

Often, it’s the woman in a hurry to marry, wanting to use a marriage certificate to bind a man, thinking that having a certificate means security, and that the relationship will be protected.

Yet for men, often they don’t want to be bound by that piece of paper, wanting freedom or perhaps to see if there’s a more beautiful view ahead.

Without that marriage certificate, they won’t be labeled as "married men," so they still have the chance to roam freely without the responsibilities that should come with being married.

But now, standing before them, it seems everything has been reversed.

He wants to get married, but... she doesn’t!

Su Yebai knows he is truly... too impatient.

And she... is still somewhat resistant.

However, at this moment, Su Yebai felt a deep sense of crisis.

He knows that over the years, there were likely good men around He Yunzhi offering her love, but she didn’t accept it.

He’s not vain enough to think her reason for rejecting love is because deep down she still loves him deeply, so persistently, so unregretfully. After all, remembering the bastard things he did back then, he himself regrets them deeply, so how can he expect her to still love him?

She rejects others because... she has already sealed her heart away, not wanting anyone to come close.

So now, what he needs to do is slowly warm her heart up again, little by little, winning her heart back.

Thinking of this, Su Yebai turned to look at He Yunzhi, seeing her calm expression and demeanor as if she were light as a cloud.
