C1674 I Can Only Speak Frankly Now

When Xie Yuqing and Chen Meihua walked into the kitchen, both Liu Lei and Xie Lingquan, who were sitting in the living room outside, were silent for a while.

They waited with tacit understanding.

When the sounds of pots and pans came from the kitchen, they raised their heads and looked at each other in tacit understanding.

"Lei, if I didn't hear wrongly, you probably know something and want to ask me, right?"

Xie Lingquan tapped his thigh with his index finger and asked in a low voice.

It wasn't that he wasn't enthusiastic about Liu Lei, but that he was going to talk about this matter right now. He seemed to feel that it was more serious, so this tone was more appropriate to say it.

"It's like this, father-in-law."

Liu Lei replied with a smile.

He deliberately emphasized the tone of his father-in-law.

What he wanted to express was that he was asking a question as his son-in-law, without any intention of questioning.

He hoped that everyone could talk peacefully without any misunderstandings.

Of course, he also wanted to play a little emotional card, wanting Xie Lingquan to be more willing to answer his question.

Xie Lingquan was obviously a smart person and immediately understood Liu Lei's intention.

He could not help but sigh and ask:

"What do you know? Why do you suspect that there's something wrong with my side?"

"One time, I found out by chance that there was a mysterious phenomenon that happened to Xie Yuqing before she woke up. Furthermore, I couldn't even detect the spiritual Qi in her body.

Liu Lei answered honestly.

His meaning was very simple. Something that couldn't even be probed with spiritual energy would definitely not be simple.

Judging from this place, Xie Yuqing's parents were not simple either, this was logical.

Xie Lingquan nodded and said,

"So you were the one who discovered this matter. No wonder you could feel that something was wrong so quickly."

"Then I understand."

"So, father-in-law, my guess is right. You and mother-in-law are indeed not ordinary people. Including Xie Yuqing, she is also not an ordinary person."

Liu Lei lowered his voice and said.

Although it was rather noisy in the kitchen and Xie Yuqing couldn't hear anything, it was better to be safe and not let Xie Yuqing hear anything.

Xie Lingquan was silent again. This time, it was even longer than before. Finally, he sighed heavily and said:

"That's right, your guess is right. Our family is not ordinary people."

"Actually, you should have guessed it from the beginning. If it was an ordinary person, why would your master use a genius Cultivator like yourself to set an engagement with our family's Little Qing?"

"It's useless to be pretty. Your master wouldn't think that Little Qing is qualified to be engaged to you just because of this."

"It is only because our family has a special sort of status that your master feels that he is barely qualified."

"In fact, I was the one who risked my life to fight for this qualification against your master."0

"Because I hope you can protect our Little Qing."

Xie Lingquan also lowered his voice, but even though he did that, Ye Zichen could still hear the helplessness in his voice.

It wasn't because he had no choice but to say the engagement between Xie Yuqing and Liu Lei, but because he had no other choice.

Originally, he didn't want to say it, but there was no other way. Liu Lei had already noticed the mysterious phenomenon on Xie Yuqing's body, so he couldn't hide it anymore.

Now, they could only openly talk.

As for the engagement, he didn't feel that there was anything he could do about it, because he was very happy to see his own daughter with such a talented Cultivator.
