Caught in a dilemma, Yun Jinping knew it was ti to co clean since the matter was out in the open. “He’s charming.”

“So what if he’s charming? Our darling daughter has to spend the rest of her life waiting on a handicap. It pains

to see her in that position.” Shen Zhangqing was choking up.

“Honey, I know what you’re thinking. Don’t do anything rash and don’t question your daughter. She’s young and it’s her first relationship. You know how stubborn she gets. I’m afraid sothing might happen if we press on too hard.” This was Yun Jinping’s number one concern and the reason she held back from saying anything about it.

“Who is the guy?” Clenching his teeth, Shen Zhangqing ran to the kitchen to pick up a knife. “I’m going to slice him for eyeing my daughter.”

He was not asking for his daughter’s boyfriend to be handso or rich, but the prospective individual should at least be able-bodied.

With the guy bound to a wheelchair, his daughter would have to tend to his every need for the rest of her life. Having raised the apple of his eye with so much love, Shen Zhangqing could not bear to see his daughter take the hard path in life.

“Don’t be rash.” Yun Jinping was no stranger to his temper. “I’m coming back right now. I’ll explain to you in detail once I’m ho.”

She could not tell him that it was the next-door neighbor because Shen Zhangqing would not hesitate to run next door to chop the guy down.

Shen Zhangqing had more to say, but his wife had hung up the call. In the end, he held the knife and sulked in the living room.

Afraid that sothing major might go down in the house, Yun Jinping left in a hurry after informing Jiang Yin.

Jiang Yin took a glance at Yun Jinping. She got an idea of what was going on after overhearing sothing about being in love. Despite the urge to warn Shen Xi, Jiang Yin held back.

She promised Shen Xi to keep it a secret and help her out when the ti called for it. However, Jiang Yin never said she would give Shen Xi the heads up. She did not want to be caught in between both sides after all.

It was nearly sundown by the ti Yun Jinping drove herself ho. Shen Xi was not ho yet while Shen Zhangqing was waiting near the living room door.

“Honey.” With his wife ho, Shen Zhangqing rushed over with an anxious but furious look on his face. “Tell , who is that b*stard? I’ll take him on!”

“Maybe, I’m saying maybe he’s the next-door neighbor.” There was no need to hide the matter from Shen Zhangqing since Yun Jinping was here to keep him in check.

“Isn’t Jin Yu living next door?” Shen Zhangqing abruptly widened his eyes. “Isn’t he Xuan’s dad? He has a wife and kids!”

“It’s not Jin Yu.” Yun Jinping let out a sigh and told him what she saw the other day. “That’s not Jin Yu’s house. It’s that man’s house.’

“Our neighbor is not Jin Yu?” Shen Zhangqing was about to lose it and felt devastated that his daughter had been lying to them.

Had it always been another guy instead of Jin Yu? Was Jin Yu an excuse to trick them to think he was the next-door neighbor?

“No. Our neighbor is a young man. He’s good-looking and carries himself well. He’s also quite courteous in the way he talks and acts.” Yun Jinping could still rember how she was blown away during her first encounter with the man. He was handso and polite. If it were not for his legs, the man would make a good candidate.

Nevertheless, she shared the sa thoughts as her husband. She wanted nothing but the best for her daughter. No parent was willing to see their child marry a cripple.

“What can his good looks, bearing, and grace be of help if he can’t walk?” Shen Zhangqing was not angry because his daughter was dating soone or hiding her relationship from them.

He was furious that she found herself a cripple. Well, it was not all anger but more so heartache of the hardships she would suffer in the future. A lifeti was a long way to go. Shen Xi was not even 18 and yet she would have to look after a disabled person for the rest of her life. It was a hard life to live.

“Honey, I think Xixi is truly fond of him. Don’t talk to Xixi about it. How about we have a chat with the guy? He seems like a sensible person, and I think he’d understand where we’re coming from.” Yun Jinping was aware that her daughter was set in her ways. The latter would not give up once she was fixated on a matter or a person.

For any chance to put a stop to it, they could attempt to try their hand on the boy and talk so sense into him. If he knew what was good for their daughter, he would know what the best choice was.

The couple discussed the issue at hand and finally decided to deal with it behind their daughter’s back. First, they had to find the right mont to sound the boy out and see if they could get through to him. Should that fail, they would just have to play by ear.

Since Shen Zhangqing was soone who wore his heart on his sleeve, Shen Xi was bound to read him like a book when she got ho. Hence, he went to the office before Shen Xi returned.

Yun Jinping told Shen Zhangqing to avoid seeing his daughter for the next few days until he pulled himself together.

Shen Xi received a call from Yun Jinping, saying that Old Shen had to go for an ergency business trip. Although Shen Xi sounded disappointed that Old Shen could not go with her to the fashion show, her face reflected otherwise. In fact, she was winking at Li Yuan.

It was not that Shen Xi did not want to enjoy the show with Old Shen or that she forgot her dad now that she had a boyfriend. Fine, it was true. Anyone who was madly in love would act the sa. That was what Shen Xi was telling herself.

Following the phone call and without the slightest clue that her relationship was uncovered, Shen Xi happily uttered, “Sit anywhere in the auditorium tomorrow. I’ll definitely be in the front VIP seats.”

Li Yuan nodded. He did not care where he sat as long as he could see her and be with her.

Shen Xi could not go straight to Mom and ask for tickets since she needed to keep everything hush-hush. She went online and paid premium for a ticket.

That night, Shen Xi was ho alone as Yun Jinping and Shen Zhangqing were away. After coming ho from dinner and hanging out at Li Yuan’s place, she was not able to sleep as she tossed and turned in bed.

In the end, she carried Toffeecito and went to ring the doorbell next door. Shen Xi then pitifully hunkered down at the door.

From the CCTV, Li Yuan saw two little munchkins perching at his front door. Holding Toffeecito in her arms, the girl wore strawberry-printed pajamas paired with a hat as she eagerly lifted her chin to stare at the surveillance cara. The look on her face sure tugged at heartstrings.

The mont the door opened, Shen Xi blinked her wide eyes at the man. “Sir, are you missing two cutie pies in your life?”

“Why aren’t you asleep?” Li Yuan heartbreakingly yet helplessly stared at her.

“I can’t sleep.” Snuffling, Shen Xi cheerlessly mumbled under her breath while snuggling up against Toffeecito.

“Insomnia?” Li Yuan was worried and debated silently whether to make her chamomile tea.

“No.” Shen Xi shook her head before giving a straight answer.. “I just miss you.”
