"Don't, don't fool around, I'm cooking!"
Xia Nuannuan's pretty face flushed, and she gently wriggled her body.
"You cook, I'll just hug you."
Qin Tian leaned close to her ear and said softly in a magnetic voice.
Xia Nuannuan's face turned even redder, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Woof!"
"Cough cough!"
Following Xia Tian's bark, a somewhat familiar cough suddenly sounded.
Both of them were startled.
"Who!"
Qin Tian instantly turned around and roared, then he was stunned.
He saw his future father-in-law standing there with a cold face, his gaze like a knife fixed on him.
"Uncle Xia? What are you doing here?"
Qin Tian looked dumbfounded, turning his head to look at Xia Nuannuan in surprise.
"My dad came suddenly. I was busy cooking and forgot to send you a message,"
Xia Nuannuan explained with a blushing face.
"I slept in the guest room!"
Xia Zhengping said with a dark face.
"Oh oh, Uncle Xia, why didn't you say anything in advance when you were coming!"
When Qin Tian turned to look at his future father-in-law, his face had changed to a brilliant smile.
Thinking that his actions just now had been seen by Old Xia, he was so embarrassed that he wished he could ascend to heaven and live on Mars.
"What? You're not welcome?"
Xia Zhengping asked with a cold gaze.
"No, no, no, how could I not be! Of course, I welcome you! I mean I didn't treat you well enough. If I had known you were coming today, I would have definitely bought some good wine and food."
Qin Tian hurriedly explained.
Hearing this, Old Xia's expression eased slightly.
"I was just passing by, so I came in to see if you were home. Nuannuan is just cooking at home."
"I see!"
Qin Tian nodded in realization.
After that, neither of them knew what to say, and the atmosphere became awkward and subtle again.
"Woof!"
Xia Tian barked again, completely oblivious to the atmosphere.
"How about I do the cooking, Nuannuan, you and Uncle Xia go sit in the living room?"
Qin Tian suggested with a smile.
"No, I'm almost done cooking."
Xia Nuannuan decisively shook her head and refused.
In this situation, her toes were already curling up with embarrassment!
It was also her own fault for being so used to having just the two of them at home that she completely forgot about her father sleeping in the guest room.
"Little Qin, let's go to the living room to chat. I have something to tell you."
Old Xia said.
"Ah? Okay, okay."
Qin Tian, a little flustered, nodded repeatedly and followed him out of the kitchen.
The two of them sat down on the sofa in the living room.
Qin Tian sat with his legs together, very upright, presenting himself as a naughty child who had made a mistake and was ready to accept criticism honestly.
The dog also followed, rubbing its head against his legs to please its owner.
However, Qin Tian, annoyed that the dog hadn't reminded him in time, pushed it away with his foot.
The dog whimpered softly, tilted its head, and looked at him with wronged eyes.
"Little Qin..."
"Uncle, I was wrong!"
Just as Xia Zhengping was about to speak, Qin Tian quickly admitted his mistake and apologized.
Old Xia was a bit stunned, and dark lines dripped down his forehead.
He really didn't want to bring up what had just happened!
It would have been better if he had turned a blind eye and pretended not to have seen it.
But this brat insisted on bringing up the topic.
"I..."
"Uncle, I really know I was wrong!"
"Can you wait for me to finish speaking? I wasn't talking about what just happened!"
Old Xia glared at him, almost gritting his teeth.
"Ah?"
Now it was Qin Tian's turn to be confused.
Old Xia took a deep breath and tried his best to calm his emotions before saying, "I saw the Moments post Nuannuan sent."
"Oh, you're talking about this!"
Qin Tian breathed a sigh of relief.
Old Xia rolled his eyes with a dark face and added, "We are very happy that you have this intention, both me and Nuannuan's mother. It shows that you treat our Nuannuan very well."
"It's what I should do. Nuannuan is also very good to me."
Qin Tian said with a smile.
"But my wife and I discussed it, and we think buying a car for several million as a birthday gift is a bit too extravagant. You are still young, and it's better to invest this money. You can buy her a car worth a few hundred thousand for daily use; it's the same."
Old Xia said earnestly.
"Uncle Xia, the car purchase contract has been signed, the deposit has been paid, and the gift has been given. I won't change it."
Qin Tian looked at him solemnly.
Xia Zhengping looked up at his daughter in the kitchen and said, "Little Qin, you know, Nuannuan doesn't care about these things. I'll talk to her later, and she will definitely agree with this suggestion."
"No, Uncle Xia, please don't say it."
Qin Tian shook his head and said seriously, "To me, what's mine is Nuannuan's. I earned this money, so who else would I spend it on? Just listen to me. Besides, the gift has already spread throughout our school. I have to deliver it then, otherwise, it would be losing face, wouldn't it!"
"Then it's like this, I'll give you the money for the car!"
Xia Zhengping immediately changed his tune.
"Uncle Xia, if you and Auntie consider me as family, please don't say that again. I won't accept it, and I'll really be sad."
Qin Tian's expression was extremely serious.
Seeing him like this, Xia Zhengping didn't have anything else to say. After a moment of silence, he changed the subject.
"Your internet cafe is doing very well. It's considered the best in Jiangcheng now, right?"
"Yes, mainly because Brother Zhao is amazing. I'm just lucky to be carried!"
Qin Tian nodded with a smile.
"Carried? This word is interesting, but you don't need to be too humble. Luck is also a form of strength. Also, I've inquired about the operation model of your internet cafe, holding gaming competitions, cooperating with live streaming platforms, and so on. These should all be your ideas, right? Our generation finds it hard to come up with these strategies."
Xia Zhengping looked at him meaningfully.
Qin Tian smiled and nodded.
"So, if you want to expand your internet cafe, you'll need a lot of capital next. Is it a bit ill-considered for you to spend several million like this?"
Old Xia steered the conversation back.
"Uncle Xia, don't worry. The money for the car has nothing to do with the internet cafe. If the internet cafe needs to expand, the working capital I have is completely sufficient."
Qin Tian smiled confidently.
"Still stock investment?"
Old Xia asked in surprise.
"Yes, and another investment with a pretty high return."
"What investment? Can you talk about it?"
"Of course. Uncle, have you heard of Bitcoin?"
Qin Tian asked with a light smile.
"Bitcoin?"
Xia Zhengping was stunned for a moment, then suddenly thought of something and nodded. "I've heard some. A friend of mine has been trading stocks and called me recently to say he's been paying attention to this Bitcoin thing, saying it's been rising quite dramatically. You bought this?"
"I bought some!"
Qin Tian nodded with a smile.
