So his Father-in-Law, even when Drunk, Remembered the Fact that there was Someone there Wanting to Steal his Daughter

Qiao Qing called out to him, "Dad?"1

Quan Zexi was uncertain, "Yes?"

Qiao Qing, "Dad?"

Quan Zexi's vision was getting blurry, "What's wrong?"

Qiao Qing, "Dad?"

Quan Zexi shook his head, "Why do you keep on calling for me?"

Qiao Qing, "Dad?"

Quan Zexi burped, "What did you just call me?"

Qiao Qing muffled a laugh, "Dad?"

Quan Zexi froze and blinked blankly. He took out his index finger and pointed at his nose, "I have a child already?!"

"What the!"

"Aha…"

"Hahahahha!"

Mu Jinghang laughed hard and slapped his own leg, "Qingqing, so your light-weightedness is because of uncle!"

Wan Kaiyi was also laughing on the side. No wonder his suggestion of building a bar into this house was rejected by the Duke. 

Quan Zexi mumbled to himself after he heard Mu Jinghang's words, "Qingqing? That sounds familiar."

"Oh my, he doesn't remember anyone!" Mu Jinghang pointed to himself and joked, "Uncle, do you remember me?"

Quan Zexi glared at him, "Sand sculpture."

Mu Jinghang, "..."

"Hahahaha…" Jun Yexuan's chest was shaking from laughter, "Though uncle is drunk, he's still sharp as hell!"

"A wolf dressed in human clothes!"

Jun Yexuan, "What?"

Quan Zexi stared at him and enunciated, "A wolf dressed in human clothes!"

Jun Yexuan, "..."

Memories of a drunk Qiao Qing flood his brain. That soft girl once spoke to him in a serious tone, "My dad said that boys who want to be my husband are wolves dressed in human clothes. I need to stay away from them."

So his father-in-law, even when drunk, remembered the fact that there was someone there wanting to steal his daughter. 

Mu Jinghang eyed Jun Yexuan, "Third brother, it doesn't seem like you made a better impression on him than me."

Jun Yexuan glared, "Get out!"

Just then, Quan Zexi suddenly stood up and headed downstairs. 

Qiao Qing and the others exchanged glances before they follow. 

Quan Zexi appeared drunk since he didn't recognize anyone in sight.

At the same time, he didn't seem drunk when he walked. His steps were steady and even and he showed no signs of possibly stumbling. 

The younger generation followed him and knew right away that he was headed for the kitchen.

Up in the kitchen, Wan Kaiyi was about to ask Quan Zexi what he was doing when Qiao Qing shush'ed him. 

Everyone watched as the gracious Duke opened the kitchen door and stared inside. His knuckles were white as he held onto the handle. 

Then, as if it took great determination, he ended up taking out a durian.

Qiao Qing and the others could no longer contain themselves as they laughed. 

Quan Zexi was in shock. He pulled the durian into his arms as if trying to hide it from the world's uglies. 

The skin of the durian however, seemed to have poked him too hard and he instinctively dropped it. The fruit fell to the ground and rolled away.

Quan Zexi chased after it. After he picked it up and brought it back into his arms, he turned and found a crowd of people peeking at him. 

Qiao Qing and the others were nervous about getting yelled at by Quan Zexi. However, Quan Zexi merely looked at his durian before he spoke up with confidence that was somewhat mixed with guilt, "I didn't steal this!"

Qiao Qing, "..."

Jun Yexuan and the others, "..."
