Chapter 1603: Act First And Report Later

Ye Youyou's body was wound up tight. She was feeling extremely nervous. If Li Xiao opened his mouth to say a word, she didn't think she would be able to immediately react. This was very likely soon to be her father-in-law.
Li Xiao raised his cup of tea. He looked at it and sniffed it. He asked, "You poured it from the gaiwan*?
Ye Youyou's heartbeat sped up. Her nerves felt out of control. She nodded her head and replied, "Yes… Because the tasting cups were a little small, I poured it into the mug instead."
"Why didn't you brew it out here instead?" he asked.
"I…" Ye Youyou was at a loss.
"Because I didn't bring it out," Li Jinnan interrupted. "I mean… The coffee table is full of stuff, and I hadn't had the time to tidy it up. She just came back today."
"You just came today?" Li Xiao asked as he looked at Ye Youyou.
Ye Youyou was suddenly praying that the marks on her neck wouldn't be too obvious.
Li Xiao looked away soon enough. With a grunt, he asked, "Has the matter been solved?"
"Yeah, there are still a few loose ends to tie up at the moment, but it'll be fine once it's done," Li Jinnan replied.
"Alright. Come home soon," Li Xiao said. "Your grandfather's state has been on a decline. You should go back and keep him company."
At the mention of Captain Li, Li Jinnan felt a little ashamed and replied, "I will."
"Also, did you know that Dasu has been sent to the Capital?" Li Xiao asked.
"Yeah, I do, but I haven't had the time nor the chance to visit him yet," Li Jinnan said. "There'll be plenty of time for that in the future."
"Dasu might not be used to living here," Li Xiao said. "That child is mature and understanding. He knows that his grandparents are lonely. He keeps insisting that he wants to keep them company, but he grew up with his siblings. Having to live apart is going to take him some time to get used to it."
Li Xiao's heart ached for his eldest grandchild. He looked at Li Jinnan and said, "That child has always been close to you. Visit him if you have the time to. I won't have any objection regardless of how long you want to remain in the Capital."
Li Jinnan reached out to massage his temples and replied, "I'm afraid I'll have to remain in the Capital for a few more days, but we can't stay for too long either. The air in the Capital is so bad, and there are so many people. Kingstown is still better. It's better for the adults, and it's better for the child."
Ye Youyou was shocked when she heard Li Jinnan's words and quickly nudged him.
Li Xiao's eyes flashed when he heard that and asked, "Child?"
Li Jinnan had said it on purpose, but he immediately pretended that he had unintentionally let the cat out of the bag and quickly kept silent.
Li Xiao's expression darkened when he saw that and asked, "What child? You'd better not tell me that you made the lady pregnant!"
Made… the lady… pregnant.
That statement was so straightforward that Ye Youyou's face started burning up.
Li Jinnan cleared his throat. Acting as though he were in an awkward position, he protested, "Dad…"
"Don't you know you're aren't married yet?" Li Xiao's face darkened. His expression was of disapproval, "What is this? How could you get her pregnant before marriage?"
What was this? It was called acting first and reporting it later…
That was what Li Jinnan thought inwardly. Outwardly, he pasted an innocent look on his face and said, "Dad, I'm a grown man. Since I have a girlfriend, it's normal for her to get pregnant. What did I do wrong?"
"You rascal!" Li Xiao finally saw through it. This rascal had done it on purpose. He was suddenly furious and slammed the teacup on the coffee table. "Your actions will destroy the reputation of the lady! How could you be so audacious? Regardless of how impatient you were, you should have at least taken measures first!"
Li Jinnan didn't say another word, but he was rejoicing inside.
Li Xiao had a very traditional mindset. With the bow strung, the shot had been expected.
