071: Congratulations.

He Zhiwei had reservations in her heart, so she didn't say much to Zhiyun. After Zhiyun left, she called He Yannian.

"Director He, congratulations, you're going to be a father-in-law."

He Zhiwei stood on the balcony, blowing in the wind as she spoke to He Yannian in her typically sarcastic tone.

"Father-in-law? Whose father-in-law?"

He Yannian was baffled by He Zhiwei's sudden congratulations.

"Zhou Liao proposed to Zhiyun, so congratulations, you're about to become a father-in-law."

He Zhiwei deliberately slowed her pace, enunciating each word carefully, with a bit of force, to make sure He Yannian didn't mishear.

"What?"

He Yannian was startled.

The little rascal; he only wanted them to date, and it hadn't been that long—was he going to whisk his daughter away to get married?

"Isn't it a surprise?"

"This... is simply nonsense!"

There was only shock, no surprise.

He Yannian caught his breath and asked, "Has Zhiyun agreed?"
