Chapter 464: It’s Not a Whim, It’s Been Long-Planned

What about you?

Those words carried nothing but doubt and distrust.

Mu Xichen understood where Chi Dali was coming from.

He wanted nothing more than a promise from him.

Mu Xichen said clearly and sincerely, “I was brought up by my grandfather. The elders of the Mo family were mostly military men.”

This information awed Chi Dali.

The Mo family was much-admired.

He had also been a soldier in his youth, and over the years, his respect for the Mo family had only grown.

Only, he didn’t understand. “What has that got to do with what we’re discussing?”

Mu Xichen nodded, his posture pencil straight and impressive. He replied steadily in his deep and powerful voice, sounding very official, “Growing up in such a family, I’ve been taught from young to be responsible—toward myself, my brothers, and the people around me—only then can I protect my country well.”

He paused and looked at Chi Dali in the eye, saying with no uncertainty, “Where Ah Nian is concerned, it’s not a whim.”

Mu Xichen’s deep and dark eyes looked at him with determination.

Chi Dali didn’t expect the man to express his determination in such a roundabout way.

He was very serious.

He didn’t talk about like or love.

Everything he said and meant was convincing.

Chi Dali was in a slight daze when Mu Xichen continued, “It’s been long-planned.”

Where Ah Nian is concerned, it’s not a whim, it’s been long-planned.

On this note, Chi Dali suddenly laughed.

He finally realized and said, “So that was why you did business with us?”

Mu Xichen shook his head. “It was only later on that I started to like her.”

Chi Dali understood and was secretly quite proud. “Isn’t my daughter pretty?”

Mu Xichen nodded and answered truthfully, “Yes, she is.”

“What is it about her that you like?”

This question again.

Mu Xichen changed his answer this time. “I don’t know, she’s good in every way.”

Chi Dali laughed heartily. “Young lad, I’ve been young once. Maybe now you feel that you like Beinian, and just looking at her sends you wild. But once this phase is over…” The man stopped laughing and continued, “If you ever treat her badly, I will kill you myself.”

He sounded serious, and a hint of vicious warning could be detected in his voice.

The marriage had already taken place. Chi Dali could only hope that he would treat Chi Beinian well.

Having gotten Mu Xichen’s affirmation on this, Chi Dali was finally assured enough to pick up his teacup. He continued, “This child has suffered too much in her life.

“I first saw her at the orphanage. At that time, she was fighting a bunch of other kids for food.” Sadness could be seen on his face as he recounted. “We brought her home, and even then she was fearful, as though afraid to lose what she had found. So, she did whatever she was told. She tried to please us and always looked cheerful. But we both knew, the child was afraid that we’d send her back to the orphanage.

“From the time she was little, she knew to keep a clear conscience and had gratitude. She can be stubborn, but if you’re kind to her, she won’t forget that, even though she won’t say it out loud.

“Or Beinian can be quite obstinate at times. However, she’s a magnanimous person and not at all vindictive, choosing instead to laugh things off and forget the unhappiness afterward. If she does lose her temper, avoid a clash, and try to cajole her a little. Between a married couple, if you learn to give way to each other, it will solve many problems.

“Sometimes when she’s unhappy, she may choose to keep it inside and not tell you. So, you have to try to talk her around…” He was choked with emotions as he spoke. But very quickly, he suppressed them and laughed at himself, remarking, “Our daughter has grown up. From now on, we’ll hand her over to you.”
