Chapter 243: What is at stake

Seeing General Ye, Li Bao's character suddenly converged, and he stood quietly beside Ye Qianning, very respectful and obedient.

After General Ye briefly chatted with Li Bao'er, Steward Wang had already prepared dinner, and everyone went to the table to sit down.

"Sister Bao'er, can I sit next to you?" Zhenzhen walked up to Li Bao'er and asked weakly.

Li Bao'er was slightly stunned and said with a smile: "Of course you can, come, sit down." ”

"Thank you, sister. Zhenzhen replied and sat next to Li Bao'er obediently.

Seeing Zhenzhen's move, Xia Ning was puzzled. Zhenzhen only met Li Bao'er for the first time today, why did she suddenly ask to sit next to Bao'er?

Zhenzhen is very good with her, although Zhenzhen is very sensible, it is absolutely impossible to take the initiative to see a 'stranger'.

It seems that General Ye must have said something to Zhenzhen.

Thinking of this, Xia Ning glanced at Zhenzhen, and happened to meet Zhenzhen's big eyes. A trace of apology and panic quickly flashed in the innocent eyes, and he really lowered his head.

Xia Ning's heart tightened, and her hands clenched unconsciously.

General Ye Lao likes to be quiet and is very strict, so basically no one speaks when he eats. Just chatted with Yi Yunrui for a few innocuous words from time to time, and in front of his son Ye Qianning, General Ye didn't look at him much during the whole dinner time.

The atmosphere was a bit oppressive.

Xia Ning only cared about eating, and Yi Yunrui kept putting vegetables into her bowl. Li Bao'er's bowl on the opposite side was also full of dishes sandwiched by Ye Qianning, and in the real bowl, there were a lot of dishes that Li Bao'er sandwiched to her.

A meal is eaten in a silent atmosphere.

After dinner, Steward Wang brought fruits and refreshments and served fragrant tea to everyone.

Old General Ye drank fragrant tea, glanced at Ye Qianning and Li Bao'er, and said, "Qianning, Bao'er, when are you two going to get married?"

Unexpectedly, General Ye asked so directly, Li Bao'er blushed all of a sudden, Ye Qianning subconsciously glanced at Zhenzhen, looked at Xiao Budian and lowered his head and only cared about drinking tea, and his heart was a little blocked: "If you prepare for more time, it will probably be one or two months." ”

"If it's decided, then hurry up and give Bao'er a name. lest you have long nights and many dreams. General Ye looked at Zhenzhen: "Zhenzhen, do you like Sister Bao'er?"

Zhen Zhen was taken aback, looked up at General Ye, and then looked at Li Bao'er, his big eyes flickered a few times, and he nodded: "I like it, I really like Sister Bao'er." ”

Old General Ye was about to speak, but he really sat closer to Li Bao'er and said, "Sister Bao'er, are you from City C?"

"No, I live in City B. I came to City C for work. Li Baoer stroked Zhenzhen's head, that pink and tender face, and really wanted to pinch it.

"Is Sister Bao'er's home far from here?"

"This ...... It's a bit far, and it takes more than 20 minutes by car. ”

Zhenzhen thought for a while and said, "Sister Bao'er, I really don't have any friends here, can I play with Sister Bao'er?"

Li Bao'er's eyes lit up: "Yes, but Sister Bao'er is usually free at night, so let's wait for Sister Bao'er to take a vacation, Sister Bao'er will come to find real fun, how about it?"

"Hmm!" Majin nodded, smiled, and lowered his head to eat the fruit.

Xia Ning, who was sitting on the side, looked at this scene and felt that something was strange. Zhenzhen's attitude seems to be a little ...... Grudging.

"Father," Ye Qianning, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "Can you go to the study and say something?"

General Ye put down the teacup, stood up, and walked straight to the study.

"Bao'er, you are here first, and I will be back later. Ye Qianning explained to Li Bao'er, turned around and followed behind his father.

Ye Qianning closed the door of the study and stood in front of General Ye with a solemn face.

"If there's any problem, just say it. ”

"Father, what did you tell Zhenzhen?"

General Ye's face condensed slightly: "I told that little girl the truth." You're not her dad. I also warned the little girl that if she wanted to stay, she had to get Boa's permission. Otherwise, I would have taken her directly to the orphanage. ”

"Father!" Unexpectedly, his father would say such a thing, Ye Qianning's face changed: "It's true that she's just a five-year-old child! You said this to her, she didn't understand, father, are you too harsh in doing this!"

General Ye looked straight at Ye Qianning: "I just want to know, are you responsible for a child who has nothing to do with you, or is you responsible for your loved one?"

General Ye's words hit the nail on the head, and Ye Qianning was immediately stunned on the spot.

"Qianning, some things can be carried with more than just one sentence. You have to be responsible for the people who love you! For this child, if the conditions are met, we can take her in, and we can give her as much love as possible. But also let her understand that these loves are not gratuitous, and she has to rely on her own efforts to integrate into a strange family. At the age of five, he can understand things. ”

Ye Qianning frowned, he understood that what his father said was very reasonable, but for Zhenzhen...... Looking at the real expression just now, he really couldn't bear it.

Seeing that Ye Qianning's expression was a little hesitant, General Ye said in a condensed voice: "Qianning, you are a man and a soldier, you should be decisive and decisive in doing things! Don't Reverse Priorities! Besides, do you really think that you can take care of a child by yourself? Have you forgotten your mission? Have you ever wondered who will really take care of you when you are away? Who do you owe the most when you bring a child back like this!?"

Ye Qianning's eyes flashed, and his mind suddenly brightened!

He is a soldier, the captain of the 'Falcon' special forces! For a special person like him who wanders on the edge of life and death all day long, he may not even be able to take care of himself, let alone a child!

If he marries Bao'er, when he is on a mission, he can only ask Bao'er to take care of him. In the final analysis, the person who really wants to trouble is Bao'er.

Originally, Bao'er was already very aggrieved by following a person like him who was in danger at any time, and now there is Zhenzhen...... If Zhenzhen and Bao'er don't get along, then Bao'er will be even more tired.

Thinking of this, Ye Qianning's heart tightened, closed his eyes and took a deep breath: "Father, I'm sorry, I owe it to me." ”

Seeing that his son came to his senses, General Ye didn't say anything more, sighed and said, "Bao'er is a good girl, and she can take you very well." I believe that there should be no problem in accepting the truth. You are the future head of the family, think about how to deal with the relationship between the family. ”

"Yes Father, I see. ”

General Ye and Ye Qianning had not come out of the study for a long time, Li Bao'er was a little worried, and asked Xiang Xia Ning, "Xiao Ningzi, did something happen before I arrived?" ZM
