Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 736 - 729: Seeking a Sense of Presence (Part 3)
Leng Liewei had never seen Leng Yichen like that, so much so that he thought if anything really happened to Bai Yiran, then his son would completely collapse, and the Leng Family would collapse right along with him.
He never valued Bai Yiran as a daughter-in-law in the past, and even though he had some change of heart because of Xiao Xi, it didn’t make Leng Liewei realize Bai Yiran’s importance. It wasn’t until then that Leng Liewei truly realized Bai Yiran’s importance to Leng Yichen and the Leng Family.
"I bought some bird’s nest; don’t all you women love that stuff to nourish your bodies?" Leng Liewei said to Bai Yiran, somewhat awkwardly.
He’s not sure about others, but Luna and Qi Hui can’t be without bird’s nest, purchasing large amounts each month. He had tasted it before, sweet but flavorless, not understanding why women adore it so much.
However, even if he didn’t understand, Leng Liewei knew it was something good. With his daughter-in-law suffering outside, the first thing he thought of was bird’s nest. Before coming, he specially bought a batch of top-grade bird’s nest to bring along.
Then Leng Liewei awkwardly pointed to the pile of supplements next to the bird’s nest and said, "Also, ginseng, matsutake mushrooms, lingzhi... I bought some for you too. Eat more to nourish yourself well."
After saying these things, Leng Liewei’s old face turned a bit red. Even he probably never imagined he would buy these things for Bai Yiran and say those words; for a moment, he really felt somewhat embarrassed.
Hearing that Leng Liewei bought her so many precious tonics, Bai Yiran felt both flattered and surprised. Seeing Leng Liewei’s awkward and flushed face, Bai Yiran couldn’t help but smile warmly.
Her face was adorned with a sweet smile, "Thank you, Dad!"
Leng Liewei was taken aback. Bai Yiran had just said, ’Thank you, Dad.’ With her sweet smile and warm tone, it felt just like a daughter lovingly teasing her father.
Leng Liewei didn’t have a daughter, so he never experienced what it felt like to be lovingly teased by one. His relationship with his son Leng Yichen only started to improve recently, and it can be said that Leng Liewei had never felt this way before.
Being treated like this by Bai Yiran, Leng Liewei’s whole heart felt warm, with a wonderful feeling bubbling up inside him. It pleased him, made him deeply appreciate being a father, and made him want to treat Bai Yiran well.
"What’s there to thank!" Even though he was delighted inside, Leng Liewei still put on an awkward face, "We’re all family, really... Xiao Xi! Grandpa’s here! Why aren’t you looking at me!"
To hide his embarrassment, Leng Liewei quickly turned around to find Xiao Xi lying on the ground, and without caring whether she wanted it or not, he picked her up and used his stubbled face to rub her tender little cheek, "Grandpa’s prickly!"
Xiao Xi giggled as Leng Liewei made her laugh; she didn’t dislike Grandpa, but compared to him, she still liked her brother more.
Bai Yiran smiled, looking at the awkward old man Leng Liewei, knowing he was clearly just an old man desperately in need of familial affection, yet he always put on a grumpy face.
Leng Yichen walked over and embraced Bai Yiran from behind, his face also bearing a warm smile.
"Dad is truly adorable," Bai Yiran said.
"Adorable?" Leng Yichen raised an eyebrow; how come he didn’t think so? "What’s so adorable~"
Bai Yiran gave Leng Yichen a sideways glance, "You father and son both have the same bad temper!"
"I’m not like him at all." Leng Yichen said with his mouth, but his eyes were shining.
