Hai Xiaotang showed everyone to the door.
Everyone had gone to their cars, leaving only Dongfang Yu behind.
He stood in front of the car door, his deep gaze focused on her, as if she was the only thing that existed in his sight.
Hai Xiaotang avoided his gaze, coolly saying, “You take your time. I’m going back inside.”
The man suddenly grabbed her arm, murmuring, “I’ll be back soon after a few days.”
Hai Xiaotang responded indifferently, “How long you’ll be gone is none of my concern.”
” I will bring you a gift.”
“No need, I don’t require…”
Dongfang Yu interjected again, “If you need anything, call me. Wait for me to return!”
He turned and sat in his car without giving her a chance to reply.
Hai Xiaotang was speechless. Was he always this arrogant?
Just as Dongfang Yu’s car was starting, Hai Xiaotang turned to enter the house, only to suddenly see a military off-road vehicle approaching.
She looked closely and saw a familiar face inside the vehicle.
An involuntarily smile appeared on Hai Xiaotang’s face.
The off-road vehicle stopped in front of her, and Tao Yi jumped out of it, flashing her a brilliant smile.
“Big Brother Tao, how come you’re here? When did you get back?!” Hai Xiaotang asked, delight etched in her voice.
“Stop the car!” Dongfang Yu, who had almost left, suddenly commanded sharply!
The driver hurriedly stopped the car, “President, what’s wrong?”
Dongfang Yu did not respond; his eyes were glued to the rearview mirror, watching Hai Xiaotang and Tao Yi. His eyes became inky dark and gloomy.
Hai Xiaotang and Tao Yi exchanged a few words in laughter, and then they went inside through the main entrance together.
Yet Dongfang Yu still stared at the rearview mirror.
“President, we don’t have much time.” Ji Chuan gently reminded him under immense stress.
Dongfang Yu repressed the urge to turn back, coldly ordering, “Drive!”
“Yes.” The driver quickly started the car.
But Dongfang Yu still exuded a dark and chilling aura, his gaze remaining icily intimidating.
Ji Chuan glanced at him through the rearview mirror before quickly averting his eyes.
Our president can be really intimidating…
The sudden arrival of Tao Yi surprised and delighted Hai Zhiyuan.
He even addressed him affectionately as ‘Grandfather’.
“Grandfather, I knew that today was your birthday so I rushed over. Here are some gifts I brought, I hope you will not disdain them.” Tao Yi said cheerfully and confidently.
Hai Zhiyuan liked him very much and happily responded, “I’m very happy you could come! Why didn’t you let us know in advance? Have you eaten? Did you come here right after finishing a mission? Are you tired?”
The old man posed a flurry of questions in one breath.
Tao Yi was a bit taken aback, not knowing which question to answer first.
Hai Xiaotang, laughing, came to his rescue, “Grandfather, Brother Tao surely hasn’t eaten yet. Let’s discuss everything else after he has had his meal.”
The old man laughed heartily, “Right, let’s have dinner first! Xiaotang, help your grandfather take good care of Tao Yi, don’t neglect him.”
“I know grandfather.” Hai Xiaotang smiled, turning to Tao Yi, “Big Brother Tao, let’s go to the dining room and have your meal first. I’m sorry, we didn’t know you were coming, so we ate ahead of time.”
Tao Yi smiled softly, “It’s my fault, I should have told you in advance.”
“Next time you come, let us know in advance so grandfather can prepare your favorite dishes.” The old man grinned.
“Big Brother Tao, you see how wonderful grandfather is to you.” Hai Xiaotang joked, laughing.
Tao Yi looked at her laughing, a gentle smile rippling in his eyes.
Having only interacted for a short while, he realized he already enjoyed the feeling of being with them.
It was warm and delightful.
