The Sweetness of the Seventies-Chapter 964 - 933: Seeking Advice, Non-Interference

Xie Wu, noticing the leader’s gaze, explained, "I was taking Young Master Si Tang home, but he insisted on coming here, saying he had something to discuss with you all."

He Tiantian frowned and asked, "What could he possibly want?"

"Hehe, it’s quite simple. He wants to pursue Qi Zhengmin and has to get past you first!" Huo Yingjie chuckled. Tang Qian was clearly willing to invest a lot to win his beauty.

He Tiantian, looking at Tang Qian who was happily playing with the children, remarked thoughtfully, "Putting aside his past, Tang Qian is actually a decent guy. Don’t you think so, Brother Yingjie?"

Huo Yingjie, although aware that He Tiantian’s evaluation of Tang Qian was for Qi Zhengmin’s sake, wasn’t pleased and said, "Your man is right beside you. Please refrain from paying too much attention to other men."

"What? Jealous for no reason," He Tiantian laughed behind her hand, "The person he likes is Zhengmin, not me!"

"If it were you, do you think Tang Qian could step into our house? Would I let him have it so easy?" Huo Yingjie retorted with narrowed eyes, his handsome face exuding an air of unrivaled arrogance!

He Tiantian pondered for a moment and then said, "Maybe I shouldn’t stand in the way."

"Enough, they’re both adults. Besides, matters of the heart aren’t something you can stop if you try," Huo Yingjie stated, "As an older sister, you’ve said what you should and shouldn’t. If you meddle further, it just becomes annoying."

"Alright," He Tiantian sighed, "It’s tough when girls grow up. Clinging too much only breeds resentment!"

"Now it’s your sister, but what about in the future when our daughter starts dating? Can you imagine how worried you’ll be?" Huo Yingjie teased, thinking He Tiantian was making a mountain out of a molehill.

Everyone has their own fate in this world.

He Tiantian glared at Huo Yingjie and said, "Don’t make snide remarks here. Haven’t you heard that the more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law from a distance, the more satisfied she feels? But as for you, if someone snatches away your little darling, as a father, won’t you be in a panic?"

Although Huo Yingjie initially wanted to laugh it off, carefully thinking about it made him feel a bit downcast.

"Sigh, let’s not think too much about it. As long as we’re happy together, that’s what matters," Huo Yingjie opted for avoidance, reasoning that his daughter was still young and there was no need to worry about such things for now.

Seeing Huo Yingjie and He Tiantian, Tang Jian felt a surge of excitement.

Now sober and clear-headed.

"Yingjie, can you step aside for a bit? I would like to talk with my niece-in-law," Tang Qian said, preferring to keep the conversation as private as possible.

Huo Yingjie smiled, took a seat to the side, picked up a newspaper, and said with a laugh, "Go ahead and talk; you can pretend I’m not here."

To claim to be invisible when he was such a commanding presence—absurd!

"I share everything with Yingjie. You don’t need to avoid discussing anything in front of him," He Tiantian said, curious to hear what Tang Qian had to say.

Considering he had already embarrassed himself in the past, Tang Qian thought, this time, aiming to engage in proper conduct, even if embarrassing, was inconsequential.

"Actually, I would like to ask you to grant me permission to date Zhengmin," Tang Qian declared, "I intend to pursue a relationship with marriage in mind, not for fleeting amusement."

Listening, He Tiantian looked at Tang Qian’s earnest expression and grew serious herself.

"Tang Qian, you and Zhengmin are both adults with the freedom to love. I really shouldn’t interfere," He Tiantian stated, "But you’re aware of your past, and you should understand my concerns."

"I understand. If I were in your shoes, I would object, too," Tang Qian acknowledged, accepting the truth in He Tiantian’s words.

"Well, since you’re so frank, I’ll be clear too," He Tiantian said earnestly, "Whom you pursue is none of my business, and whom Zhengmin likes is not for me to control, but I will always remember anyone who hurts my sister. I will hold a grudge for a lifetime and will seek retribution."

Tang Qian was taken aback, he hadn’t expected He Tiantian to be so direct!

If he hurt He Tiantian, he would become her enemy.

"I won’t hurt Zhengmin," Tang Qian argued, hoping to gain He Tiantian’s trust.

He Tiantian narrowed her eyes, gazing straight at Tang Qian, and said, "I’m someone who never listens to what others say. I only watch what they do. We all have our own freedom, and I have my freedom to choose. To protect my family, I can take certain actions."

Having heard this, Tang Qian laughed and said, "I’ll remember that. I’ll fulfill my promises through my actions in the future."

Although He Tiantian’s words were not pleasant, Tang Qian also heard her relent and make concessions.

He wouldn’t block his pursuit of Qi Zhengmin.

Since he wouldn’t let down Qi Zhengmin, there was no need to fear He Tiantian’s threats anymore.

He Tiantian chuckled and said, "We shall see." fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

"Let’s do that," Tang Qian laughed, "Well, it’s getting late. It’s time for me to take my leave."

Huo Yingjie stood up and said, "Tiantian, you play with the kids. I’ll walk Tang Qian out!"

Outside the second gate.

Tang Qian couldn’t hold back and asked, "Yingjie, He Tiantian is so formidable. Can you handle her?"

Huo Yingjie looked at Tang Qian with a face that seemed to be looking at someone foolish and laughed, "Tiantian being formidable proves my capability. A wife isn’t to be controlled, but to be cherished. If you want to live a harmonious and beautiful life, don’t bring the extravagant behaviors of Yanjing’s bad boys into your marriage."

Huo Yingjie’s words left Tang Qian speechless.

Tang Qian finally understood why He Tiantian could be so confident.

With a husband who dotes on her and prioritizes her above all, what does such a woman have to fear?

"Huo Yingjie, thank you," Tang Qian said with a smile, but seeing how happy Huo Yingjie was, perhaps he should take note of Huo Yingjie’s advice and learn some of his actions.

Huo Yingjie raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why thank me? It’s out of the blue."

"Because last time you reminded me about the Peach Blossom Evil, and after going back, I told my father, who had someone resolve it for me," Tang Qian said, "Since then, I haven’t felt the same way as before."

"That’s good," Huo Yingjie could tell, "Qi Zhengmin is a good girl. If you really like her, cherish her properly."

When Tang Qian heard this, his spirits lifted, and he said, "I will. Yingjie, do you approve of me and Zhengmin?"

"Previous matters between you and her, what do they have to do with anyone else? If you can’t see clearly your own heart, what’s the point of asking me to approve?" Huo Yingjie expressed his puzzlement, "Don’t let the past make you fear the future because of one setback."

"True," Tang Qian laughed, "I really like Qi Zhengmin, and I want to marry her."

"Heh, if you want to marry someone, then you have to work hard and show your sincerity," Huo Yingjie laughed. A man can use many methods to move a woman’s heart.

"Ah, I might really be scared," Tang Qian said with a bitter smile, "I’m always somewhat hesitant."

"Actually, it’s quite simple. Aren’t you just afraid that others won’t believe you?" Huo Yingjie retorted, with a cunning idea in his mind, planning to make him pay for trying to stir up trouble between him and his wife.
