The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Mili Xiong was in a bad mood all day. Ever since his daughter Mi Lai said she wanted to move out, he had been in a bad mood.

Mi Lai and Lu Tao broke up, and Mi Lixiong was worried for a long time. He was relieved to see his daughter smile again and feel that she had gotten out of the shadow of the breakup. But then Mi Lai suddenly said that she wanted to be independent and move out to rent a place.

As a doting father, Mi Lixiong has spoiled his only daughter since she was a child, so he naturally couldn't say anything against it, but he was always worried that she wasn't doing well.

In the afternoon, Mi Lixiong was uneasy and unable to concentrate on work. He simply postponed his social engagements and prepared to go home to rest, and also to try to persuade his daughter.

Before he even got home, he saw his daughter and a man arguing in front of his house. In the end, his daughter even cried and hugged the man's waist!

This is intolerable! Mi Lixiong isn't Mi Lai's father, and he stepped on the gas and sped up to Mi Lai's side.

Miley was also a little surprised when she saw her father, her face still wet with tears.

"Who are you? Why did you make my daughter cry!" Mi Lixiong grabbed Wang Gang by the collar, his face full of anger.

Wang Gang knew that Mi Lai's father had misunderstood him, so he did not choose to fight back; otherwise, Mi Lixiong would be lying on the ground right now.

"Dad, let go! He's my friend Gao Qiang!" Mi Lai excitedly stopped her father, shouting, "Let go!"

Mili Xiong let go of his hand and asked in confusion, "Milai, wasn't he bullying you?"

"Of course not." Mi Lai asked Wang Gang anxiously, "Are you alright?"

"It's nothing." Wang Gang waved his hand dismissively, then said to Mi Lixiong, "Uncle Mi, you've misunderstood. I didn't bully Mi Lai."

Mili Xiong frowned and asked suspiciously, "You didn't bully Mi Lai, so why is she crying while hugging you?"

Mi Lai said irritably, "Dad, I just had something sad happen to me, so I hugged Gao Qiang and cried for a while."

Mili Xiong said nervously, "Milai, what happened to you? Tell Daddy quickly, Daddy will stand up for you. No one can let my daughter be wronged."

Mi Lai said sadly, "It's nothing serious, it's all in the past, I don't want to mention it again."

Wang Gang knew that Mi Lai was shy and afraid of losing face, which was why she subconsciously kept it from her father.

But since she didn't say anything, Mili Xiong was even more worried!

Then Mi Lixiong looked at Wang Gang and asked, "Are you Mi Lai's friend? I've never seen you before."

"Dad, what are you doing!" Mi Lai called out to her father, "Go home first, I have something to say to Gao Qiang."

Mili Xiong said with a dark face, "If you have something to say, go home and talk about it. What kind of behavior is this, hugging and kissing like that!"

Mi Lai looked at Wang Gang hesitantly.

"You go home with your uncle first! I'll contact you later," Wang Gang said softly.

Mi Lai thought Wang Gang was going to abandon her again, and her eyes reddened with grievance.

"Don't worry! Get a good night's rest tonight, and I'll come over tomorrow to help you move," Wang Gang reassured him.

"Really?!" Miley exclaimed in surprise.

"Of course it's true. When did I lie to you?"

Wang Gang glanced at Mi Lixiong's sullen face and thought that if he stayed any longer, Mi Lixiong might really start hitting him!
"Uncle, I'm leaving now. I'll leave Mi Lai to you."

Mili Xiong had a strange feeling about what he heard, and his gaze toward Wang Gang became increasingly hostile!
Wang Gang quickly left, and Mi Lai reluctantly bid him farewell with her eyes, while Mi Lixiong's face grew increasingly gloomy.

After Wang Gang had disappeared from sight, Mi Lai turned around and said to Mi Lixiong, "Dad, it's all your fault, you scared my friend away!"

Mili Xiong asked suspiciously, "Who exactly is he?"

Mi Lai replied matter-of-factly, "Didn't I tell you we're friends? Why ask so many questions?"

Mili Xiong asked nervously, "Boyfriend?" "Of course not, just a friend."

"Is it really just a simple friendship?" Milish asked doubtfully.

"Do you really want me to tell you that he's my boyfriend before you'll believe me?" Mi Lai said angrily.

"Mi Lai, if you get a boyfriend, don't hide it from me. Dad doesn't object to you dating. When you were with Lu Tao, I didn't say anything!" Mi Lixiong said nervously.

“Dad, don’t overthink it. He’s really just my friend,” Mi Lai said, frowning.

"Still trying to lie to me." Mi Lixiong said with a straight face, "You've only ever cried for two men, one is Lu Tao, and the other is that guy just now!"

"Think what you want! You won't believe anything I say anyway!" Mi Lai rolled her eyes and started walking straight home.

"Milai, Milai."

Mili Xiong wanted to chase after his daughter, but then remembered that his car was still parked on the side of the road. So he drove the car into his garage first. When he came back to look for his daughter after parking the car, Mi Lai had already locked herself in her room and was ignoring everyone!
Seeing Mi Lixiong's anxious and flustered appearance, Mi's mother couldn't help but ask, "Why are you in such a hurry to find your daughter?"

Mili Xiong told his wife what he had just seen, and then said, "I always feel that my daughter is hiding something from me. Her relationship with that Gao Qiang is not that simple."

Mother Mi guessed, "You mean our daughter is dating again? Didn't she just break up with Lu Tao? That can't be!"

Mi Lixiong said, "I found it strange before. After Mi Lai broke up with Lu Tao, she got drunk and acted like nothing had happened the next day. It's not like her at all!"

Mother Mi guessed, "You mean, your daughter broke up with Lu Tao because of this man!"

Mili Xiong suddenly said in fear, "You said your daughter is moving out to live alone, does that mean she's going to live with that man?!"

"Ah!" Mother Mi exclaimed in shock, "No way! My daughter couldn't possibly have kept something this big from me."

Mi Lixiong sneered, "My daughter is too naive and easily deceived. Didn't that Lu Tao hurt her before? I'm worried she'll be deceived again!"

Mother Mi couldn't sit still any longer and stood up, saying, "I'll ask my daughter."

Mi Lixiong stopped Mi's mother and said, "Don't go yet. Don't you know what kind of temper our daughter has? She definitely won't tell the truth if you ask her like this."

Mrs. Mi said worriedly, "What should we do? If our daughter really moves out, we won't be able to control her."

Mi Lixiong said with a gloomy face, "I'll have someone investigate that Gao Qiang first. If he really dares to hurt Mi Lai, I'll kill him!"

Mother Mi said urgently, "Don't do anything rash. You have to consider your daughter's feelings."

Mili Xiong nodded and said, "I know, don't worry!"

…………

At Lu Tao's home.

After Xia Lin finished grocery shopping, she tried to cook a sumptuous dinner, waiting for Lu Tao to come home from get off work.

Recently, Lu Tao started working at his biological father Xu Zhisen's company. He's extremely busy, leaving early and returning late every day, and has had fewer opportunities to see Xia Lin.

Xia Lin wanted to give Lu Tao a surprise.

After finishing cooking, while waiting for Lu Tao, Xia Lin suddenly thought of Mi Lai and Wang Gang.

Why are they shopping at the supermarket together? Are they dating?

Xia Lin took out her phone, intending to call Yang Xiaoyun to inquire about Mi Lai's situation, when the door opened and Lu Tao walked in, accompanied by a pretty girl.

Lu Tao was visibly stunned when he saw Xia Lin.
