When Shen Xinlei saw Li Tingchen's eyes, her face began to slowly turn hot, and the remaining rationality in her brain told her to calm down.

Li Tingchen said these words in front of her father now, which was a contract they had agreed upon before to pretend to be in love.

He was just acting.

Just like they said the night her father woke up.

It’s just that what Li Tingchen said now was more heartfelt.

When Shen Xiuwen heard what Li Tingchen said, the worry in his eyes really disappeared by half. Looking at Shen Xinlei's shy look, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I only hope that she can meet someone who will love her forever."

"I will." Li Tingchen said happily.

"..." Shen Xinlei breathed rapidly and didn't dare to look at Li Tingchen any more.

After one more look, she really took his words seriously.

Shen Xiuwen was very happy, but as a man, he still asked the most crucial question in this situation: "If, if love disappears, what will happen to her when you see her again?"

Li Tingchen could see that Shen Xiuwen was looking at this from a father's perspective, wondering whether he was suitable to be a partner to spend his life with Shen Xinlei.

So he looked serious and did not answer the question immediately, but thought about it carefully.

Shen Xiuwen was looking forward to Li Tingchen's answer.

Shen Xinlei was worried that Li Tingchen would feel that her father was forcing him, and that he would say that he would not be with her, etc. She couldn't help but say, "Brother Chen, you don't have to answer these questions."

Shen Xiuwen was a little disappointed, but he was quite satisfied with Li Tingchen's performance so far.

He also understands that as an old man he cannot force young people, otherwise it would be annoying.

The next second he followed Shen Xinlei's words: "You don't have to answer right away. It won't be too late to answer when you have figured it out."

"We have this opportunity to speak out our inner thoughts." Li Tingchen looked at them with a smile and said, "The news that I have stood up has spread. I will definitely encounter some problems in the future. I think I should make it clear about the concerns my father mentioned."

Li Tingchen knows the people and things around him, and he knows that someone will definitely cause trouble for Shen Xinlei next.

Although he had arranged bodyguards to protect her personal safety, she might hear some bad things next, so he needed to give her confidence and a sense of security.

Although he has never been in a relationship, he understands that misunderstandings can ruin everything.

It’s just like doing business. If two people trust each other, the business can grow bigger and stronger. But if they are suspicious of each other, even the largest company will eventually go bankrupt.

In relationships, he is like an elementary school student who knows nothing, but he can put everything aside to learn.

As for things like being aloof, they are not important when facing the person you like.

He knew that his goal was to be with Shen Xinlei, and everything else had to serve this goal.

He looked up at Shen Xinlei and said softly, "Like you said, if you communicate in time, you can avoid a lot of trouble and intentional provocations."

"Then, then you say." Shen Xinlei spoke softly under his gaze, and was secretly happy in her heart that he did this.

Li Tingchen looked at Shen Xiuwen and said, "Love is unpredictable. I will try my best to maintain it. Even if there is really no love, there is still responsibility."

Shen Xiuwen nodded with satisfaction.

If Li Tingchen had said directly from the beginning that he would love Shen Xinlei forever and would never change his mind, Shen Xiuwen would have been worried.

Now that Li Tingchen mentioned responsibility, Shen Xiuwen also believed that he was a very responsible person.

Shen Xiuwen was really relieved to entrust Shen Xinlei to him.

"I feel relieved when you say that." Shen Xiuwen let out a sigh of relief and continued, "You can't despise Xinlei. If you let her suffer any injustice, I will take her away."

When Li Tingchen heard Shen Xiuwen say that he wanted to take her away, he said anxiously: "I was able to stand up because she cured me. How could I possibly dislike her?"

When Shen Xinlei heard Li Tingchen's words, it was an expected answer.

She took a deep breath and put a smile on her face, but she still felt a little lost inside.

Shen Xiuwen looked up at them and felt that they were a perfect match. Then he said softly, "I got divorced today. On the way here, I kept thinking about the past few years. I can't let Xinlei go through the hardships that I've gone through."

He divorced Yu Lan and left the house with nothing. Shen Siyuan had already said that she chose to live with her mother.

After getting the divorce certificate today, he saw Shen Siyuan and wanted to say a few words from his heart to her. However, when Shen Siyuan saw him coming, she immediately turned around and ran away, as if he was a plague god.

Home doesn't feel like home, and the children are not close to him. He and Yu Lan have problems with both of them for living like this, and he feels like a failure.

That's why he felt so uneasy when he saw Li Tingchen and Shen Xinlei.

Fortunately, Li Tingchen saw through his inner thoughts and gave him an answer that reassured him.

Shen Xiuwen could feel Li Tingchen's respect for him.

bang bang!

There was a knock on the door, followed by Gao Chi's voice: "Brother Chen, everyone is here."

"Let's go there now." Li Tingchen said.

Shen Xiuwen knew that he had wasted Li Tingchen's time, and said a little embarrassedly: "I've wasted everyone's time."

Shen Xinlei felt a little sad when she saw her father like this.

People are like this. No matter how hard or tiring the work is, they can grit their teeth and persevere. But when they see the people they care about the most suffer a little, it is more painful than when they suffer themselves.

She was now worried that Li Tingchen would blame his father, so she turned to look at Li Tingchen.

He said calmly, "It's no use wasting time. We have to celebrate my father's freedom later, so we need to eat more."

When Shen Xiuwen heard Li Tingchen's words, he smiled with relief.

Li Tingchen continued: "Xinlei, wait and see what father can eat given his current condition, and ask Gao Chi to ask the chef to prepare it."

"Okay." Shen Xinlei said in a light voice.

He did not blame her father, but gave her comfort and care, which was a hundred times more helpful than treating her well.

When Li Tingchen heard her cheerful voice, he couldn't help but look up at her.

Shen Xiuwen opened the door first and walked in front.

Li Tingchen reached out and held the hand of Shen Xinlei who was about to push his wheelchair. When she tried to pull her hand back, he held her hand tightly, interlocking their fingers.

Because of his action, Shen Xinlei blushed and looked at him to ask what he was doing.

He said softly: "You heard what I said just now. These words are all from my heart."
