"Your daughter?"
Li Yang blinked and looked at Sister Shui, "Your father?"
"Yes."
Sister Shui walked over and said, "This is my dad, and this is my Nannan."
"Dad, this is my friend, a business partner, Li Yang."
"Hello, Uncle. Hello, little Nannan." Li Yang immediately smiled and extended both hands.
Water Father let out a few "ohs" and shook his hand, "Hello, hello, Mr. Li. Are you leaving now?"
"Yes, it's not good to have overstayed my welcome." Li Yang nodded and said with a smile.
Water Father sized him up, finding him young and good-looking. His mind immediately started working. He clasped Li Yang's hand and said with a smile, "Mr. Li, are you returning so soon because of your wife at home?"
"Uncle, I don't have a wife." Li Yang smiled and shook his head.
Water Father immediately became delighted, "It's good that you don't have a wife. No, no, no, I mean, since you don't have a wife, you can find a good wife properly."
"How about my Shui Xiang?"
"Ah?" Li Yang was stunned by the sudden remark. What did that mean?
"Dad!"
Shui Xiang said coquettishly, "Li Yang, don't listen to my dad's nonsense. Hurry back."
"Oh, oh, alright. Goodbye, Uncle. Goodbye, little Nannan." Li Yang nodded, withdrew his hand, and walked towards the exit.
Shui Xiang hugged her daughter and smiled, "Nannan, say goodbye to Uncle."
"Goodbye, Uncle."
"Oh, Nannan is so well-behaved." Li Yang smiled and walked out.
Watching him leave, Water Father said, "I say, daughter, why are you rushing him away? Is there something wrong with him?"
"He's a very good person." Shui Xiang shook her head.
Water Father was puzzled, "Then why didn't you keep him? Perhaps things would have worked out tonight. You would have a husband, Nannan would have a father, and I would be at ease. What a good thing that would be."
"Dad, I understand your good intentions, but I am a withered flower, not worthy of him. Please don't worry about me." A wry smile flashed across Shui Xiang's face. She looked at her daughter and said, "Besides, it's quite good for our family like this."
"What's so good about it? How can a woman be without a man?" Water Father said unhappily, "Moreover, you are my daughter, and you are a good woman."
"If I hadn't been blind back then and misunderstood that scoundrel, you wouldn't have... Damn it, that scoundrel deserves to die!"
"Alright, Dad, it's all in the past. I've never blamed you, it's just my own bad luck." Shui Xiang sighed, "Dad, I'm going to bathe Nannan. You should rest early."
"Alas." Water Father sighed, always feeling that he had let his daughter down and wanted to find a good man for her.
Li Yang's appearance had made him particularly enthusiastic.
This was the first time his daughter had invited a man home for dinner in so many years, and she had even cooked for him herself.
This matter surely had potential.
"Hey, do you still remember me, kid?" As Li Yang walked out of the小区 gate, he was surrounded by a group of people. A man dressed luxuriously stared at him with a sullen expression.
This guy was Wang Dayou.
Li Yang smiled, "My memory is quite good. I can even remember things from twenty years ago. However, I honestly don't remember you. May I know your name?"
"Are you looking for death!" Wang Dayou roared, slapping the car door.
The thugs surrounding Li Yang immediately put on fierce expressions and cursed, "Are you crazy, kid, to speak to our Boss Wang like that!"
"If you want to die, just say the word!"
"Kneel down and apologize to Boss Wang immediately, or I'll break your legs!"
"Look at what you're saying. I really don't remember who he is. Why don't you remind me?" Li Yang said with a chuckle.
Wang Dayou's face turned completely grim. He gritted his teeth and said, "You don't remember, huh? Fine, beat him to death. If anyone dies, I'll take responsibility!"
"Yes, Boss Wang!" The thugs immediately shouted and charged at Li Yang.
Wang Dayou smiled coldly, "Kid, you dare to fight me for a woman? You'll pay the price." "Beat him, beat him to death! Give it to me, ouch!"
Before he could finish speaking, a fist smashed into his face, making him cry out in pain.
He turned his head and saw that it was Li Yang.
"You kid..."
"Stop the nonsense." Li Yang threw another punch, hitting his nose bridge.
Wang Dayou cried out in pain, clutching his nose and stumbling backward. He looked down and saw that his hands were covered in blood. He immediately exclaimed in terror, "Blood, I'm bleeding!"
"Boss Wang?" The thugs realized Li Yang was gone and their faces changed drastically.
Wang Dayou shouted, "Beat him!"
"Yes."
The thugs charged at Li Yang again.
Li Yang sighed, "Your parents raised you so big, you can think of anything else, but why must you think of this!"
As he spoke, he kicked several thugs away. In just a few moves, he dealt with all the thugs, leaving Wang Dayou pale with fright.
How could this kid fight so well?
"Do you want to fight more?" Li Yang looked at him and asked.
Wang Dayou said fearfully, "No, no more fighting! I surrender. I swear I won't fight you for the woman anymore. I'll give Boss Shui to you."
"The woman I, Li Yang, want, needs you to give it up?" Li Yang raised an eyebrow.
Wang Dayou's expression changed, and he hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, yes, no need, no need! I was overestimating myself. Please, Mr. Li, be magnanimous and don't hold it against me."
"Scram!" Li Yang glanced at him indifferently.
Wang Dayou trembled and immediately got into his car and fled. "Thank you, thank you!"
"Boss Wang, take us with you!" The thugs rushed to chase after him, and the entrance suddenly became much clearer.
The security guards in the guard booth were astonished, not expecting Li Yang to be so capable of fighting.
"Hello, sir, you just said that many people were bullying one person. Where did it happen? Do you know the address?"
"I'm sorry, it's already over." The security guard said in disbelief.
"Sir, please don't joke like this. Making false reports is a serious matter."
"I'm sorry. It really is over."
The security guard was a bit helpless. He looked up and saw that Li Yang had already driven away.
As soon as he reached his doorstep, he saw his ex-wife Su Qianqian and her extremely vicious mother, Lin Lan.
"Li Yang, you're finally back." Su Qianqian said with a smile, her face covered in several thick layers of powder to conceal the injuries from yesterday's beating, making her look a bit gaudy.
Lin Lan also wore a fawning expression, "Li Yang, we've thought about it these past few days and realized our mistakes."
"We want to reconcile with you. What do you think?"
