After thanking Zhang Ruoran, Dai Yuqian went upstairs and returned to her home.

She went into her room, closed the door, and lay down on her bed.

She took out her phone, opened WeChat, and tapped on Li Menghan's chat window.

She found the phrase "Baby is the best" on the screen extremely jarring.

She typed a message in the input box:

"Menghan, did you go home with another woman tonight?"

However, after editing the message, she didn't dare to send it.

She deleted that paragraph and edited it again.

And so, the message was edited and deleted repeatedly.

Dai Yuqian hesitated in bed for a long time, but she still couldn't muster the courage to send the message.

Finally, she let out a long sigh and placed her phone on the bedside table.

"Never mind, it's too late today. I'll ask again tomorrow."

Dai Yuqian said to herself.

"Meng Han likes me so much, he wouldn't do anything to betray me, right?"

She tried to comfort herself.

However, even so, she couldn't help but think about it.

She kept imagining Meng Han lying in the same bed with that young and beautiful woman in his very big house tonight.

Thinking about this, Dai Yuqian felt extremely distressed.

She shook her head vigorously and said loudly to herself:

"Dai Yuqian, you can't think about this anymore! Go to sleep!"

at this time.

In the big house in Beichen Garden.

Li Menghan led Dai Chong out of the elevator and opened the front door of their home.

The two of them walked into the living room together.

At this moment, Li Ze and Li Mengli were sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV.

Li Mengli heard the door open and turned to look.

When she saw Li Menghan walk in, followed by a young and beautiful woman, Li Mengli's eyes widened immediately.

Li Ze also turned his head to look over.

Upon seeing Dai Chong, Li Ze also displayed a very shocked expression.

Of course, Li Ze's shock was entirely feigned.

He already knew everything from Lao Yi.

Li Mengli jumped up from the sofa.

She walked up to Li Menghan, pointed at her, and shouted angrily:

"Li Menghan! What on earth were you up to tonight?!"

"Your girlfriend came over for dinner tonight, and you deliberately made an excuse to leave instead of staying home with her!"

"And now you're bringing another woman home? Aren't you going too far?!"

Faced with her sister's anger, Li Menghan knew that her sister had misunderstood.

He quickly waved his hand and explained loudly:

"Sis! Don't be angry, let me explain. It's not what you think at all."

Then, Li Menghan recounted everything that had happened at the Xiting Restaurant that evening.

He told Li Mengli and Li Ze that the woman's name was Dai Chong and that she was a car saleswoman.

He was only treating Dai Chong to dinner tonight because Dai Chong wanted to thank him for his support.

As a result, they ran into Xu Shiyou at the restaurant.

Xu Shiyou summoned a group of armed thugs, intending to threaten them.

Li Menghan recounted in detail the dangerous situation of the thugs surrounding them.

After listening to Li Menghan's explanation.

The anger on Li Mengli's face immediately disappeared.

Instead, she wore an expression of utter surprise.

Li Mengli looked at Dai Chong and asked:

"So, you brought her home because it wasn't safe for her to go home alone?"

Li Menghan nodded and said:

"Yes. Although Xu Shiyou and his men have been brought under control, Dai Chong, a young girl, is living alone and is very scared. Our house is big with many rooms, so I brought her back to stay for one night."

Hearing this reason, Li Mengli finally agreed.

She looked at Dai Chong and said:

"In that case, why don't you stay here for the night?"

However, Li Mengli immediately turned her head and said to Li Menghan very seriously:

"But I'm warning you, she can stay, but you two must sleep separately tonight! You absolutely cannot do anything to betray Dai Yuqian!"

Upon hearing this, Li Menghan rolled her eyes and said:

"Sis, you're overthinking it. We'll sleep separately even without you saying so. How could I possibly sleep with her?"

Dai Chong stood to the side, feeling very grateful when she heard Li Mengli agree to let her stay.

She immediately bowed to Li Mengli and Li Menghan.

Dai Chong kept apologizing, saying:

"I'm so sorry to have troubled you tonight. I really didn't mean to bother you."

At this moment, Li Ze, who was sitting on the sofa, spoke up.

He stood up, walked over to Dai Chong, and said in a very relaxed and humorous tone:

"It's alright, young lady, you don't need to feel sorry."

"Look how big our house is. Usually, it's just a few of us living here, so it's actually quite spacious. It'll be a bit more lively tonight with you here. It's really fine."

Hearing Li Ze say that, Dai Chong felt very warm inside.

"Look how big our house is. Usually, it's just a few of us living here, so it's actually quite spacious. It'll be a bit more lively tonight with you here. It's really fine."

Hearing Li Ze say that, Dai Chong felt very warm inside.

She looked at Li Ze and said very respectfully:

"Thank you, Uncle. At the same time, I really want to express my gratitude to you."

"If it weren't for the men in black you sent to rescue us tonight, Menghan and I would have been in real danger. Those thugs had iron bars and almost injured us."

Li Ze smiled, waved his hand, and said:

"It's nothing, don't mention it. He's my son, after all. I can't just stand by and watch him get bullied."

Li Mengli listened from the side; by this point, she was no longer angry at all.

She took out her phone, intending to send a message to Dai Yuqian to tell her what had happened that evening.

However, when Li Menghan saw her sister's actions, she quickly went over and stopped her.

Li Menghan made a very strong request:

"Sis, please don't send a message to Dai Yuqian."

"So many things happened tonight. She's timid to begin with. If she knew I was attacked by thugs, she would definitely be very worried."

"Besides, it's so late now, let's not disturb her rest. I'll explain to her myself tomorrow."

Seeing her younger brother's insistence, Li Mengli had no choice but to put her phone back in her pocket.

She looked at Li Menghan and couldn't help but give him a dressing down and a lecture:

"You little rascal, you just love to show off!"

"Look at you, you can cause this much trouble just by going out for a meal. Can you please try to avoid causing trouble in the future?"

"If Dad's people had been even a little late tonight, you'd definitely be in a hospital bed right now!"

Although Li Mengli cursed fiercely, her eyes were full of worry.

She actually felt very sorry for her younger brother.

The thought of her younger brother being surrounded and attacked by a group of armed thugs filled her with dread.

Li Ze found the sight of Li Mengli and her brother Li Menghan quite amusing.

He walked between them and patted Li Menghan on the shoulder.

Li Ze looked at them and said in a very steady tone:

"It's alright, you don't need to worry."

"I have already resolved all the troubles that arose tonight."

"Those thugs who bullied you will never appear in front of you again. Just relax and live your lives peacefully."

When Li Mengli heard her father say this, a very happy smile immediately appeared on her face.

She looked at Li Ze and said very loudly:

"I believe in Dad! Dad's the best, he can solve anything!"

Li Menghan stood to the side, looking at Li Ze in front of her.

He recalled what had happened at the restaurant that evening.

When those men in black rushed in, when Old One walked up to him.

Li Menghan knew perfectly well that if it weren't for Li Zeyi secretly protecting him, he would have been seriously injured tonight.

He might even implicate Dai Chong.

Li Menghan looked at Li Ze's mature and steady face.

He took a deep breath.

This time, Li Menghan didn't feel awkward or embarrassed like before.

He looked at Li Ze very sincerely and said in a low but very clear voice:

"Thank you so much for today, Dad."

Hearing this simple sentence...

Li Ze stood still, looking at Li Menghan.

He didn't say anything, but just smiled slightly at Li Menghan.

However, in Li Ze's heart, he was already overjoyed.

He laughed out loud in his heart.

"That kid."

"With such a stubborn temper, he finally called me 'Dad' from the bottom of his heart today."

Li Ze felt that today was truly a wonderful day.

He finally experienced the true joy of being a father.
