"Let her break it off early, so she doesn’t take it to heart and harm herself as well as others." Xie Tiesheng decided right then that his youngest daughter’s relationship must co to an end without further ado.
Xie Tiesheng did it for his daughter’s sake, believing that if two people of vastly different backgrounds were to get married, such marriages often do not end well.
After all, Shanni is still young, and there’s plenty of ti to find her a suitable husband. Once she gets into a university and has a proper background, then we’ll find her a man with good conditions—that’s the right way to go.
"Dad..." Zhang Shan Ni could tell the harshness in her father-in-law’s tone and wanted to diate, but seeing her husband softly shaking his head, she swallowed her words and said to her mother-in-law:
"Dad, mom, it’s getting late. You should take the kids and go back first, get so rest. For Shanni’s matter, let’s take it slowly and not make her lose face, after all, she is a young woman."
"Mhm, certainly, Old man, don’t be too strict, lest Shanni feels embarrassed."
"Dad, there’s no need to be so angry, let’s just see how it goes for Shanni," Xie Jingchen advised with a stiff face, as his wife gave him a stern look.
Zhang Shan Ni almost wanted to cover her face.
Is this his way of comforting soone? Is he joking?
Usually, her own husband is often very sincere and simple-minded with his smiles; why is he so unhelpful now?
Humph, always just placating her!
What a joke, Xie Jingchen thought as he saw the disdainful gestures of his little wife. He was initially against his younger sister dating that Young Master Zhou. If it weren’t for his wife persistently signaling him with her eyes, he wouldn’t have spoken to persuade Dad.
After all, the Xie family and the Zhou family are not on the sa path; the discrepancy is too great. Even if the younger sister does marry into the Zhou family, could her life really go as she wishes?
Zhang Shan Ni secretly sneered, they were opposing it here, but the little aunt has to agree too.
As she sees it, little aunt obviously has taken a liking to that young man. The whole family opposing it now is definitely adding fuel to the fire!
"What are you doing here?!" Xie Jingzi ca directly with Tiantian to the old tree at the hospital and sure enough, she saw Zhou Zhenghui’s attendant. After handing Tiantian over to him, she instructed him to get so candy.
Once Tiantian had left, Xie Jingzi started her reproach.
"Xiaozi, are you freezing out?" Zhou Zhenghui asked, his hands in his pockets and a teasing smile appearing in his peach blossom eyes.
But, Xie Jingzi’s expression froze, and she defensively took a few large steps back, decisively increasing the distance between them, before she said:
"What freeze out? We are not yet at a stage to et each other’s parents!"
Xie Jingzi frowned; because of Zhou Zhenghui’s abrupt visit, she didn’t know how to explain it to her family when she returned!
"What, you had your fun and now you don’t want to acknowledge it?" Zhou Zhenghui’s peach blossom eyes darkened, his voice still calm as he spoke.
"What, no! Don’t use words that can lead to misunderstandings!" What ’had your fun’ indeed, it’s clearly him who made his move!
Ah... Xie Jingzi wanted to cover her eyes; his words seed to push her to the edge of a cliff.
"Isn’t it?" Zhou Zhenghui took advantage of her befuddlent, stepping closer and naturally putting his arm around her shoulder, guiding her towards a small path in the trees beside them.
Although it was a hospital, people were coming and going, and standing under the entrance’s large tree always drew onlookers. Knowing Xie Jingzi’s reserved nature, how could he allow strangers to freely gaze at his woman?
"If you keep this up, I’ll ignore you! We, we agreed, no more bringing that up!"
Xie Jingzi looked up in surprise at Zhou Zhenghui. They had agreed that he wouldn’t bring that matter up again. Why was he digging up old grievances now?
"Little Zizi, you also agreed to date , now what is this?" Zhou Zhenghui snorted softly, pressing her against the tree trunk with his hand on her shoulder.
"Cough, cough, cough, Little Zizi, we are only ten years apart, you really don’t need to call ’uncle’! Also, if you don’t fix your attitude, don’t bla for being rude~~"
Every ti he heard Xie Jingzi calling him ’uncle’ when she was upset, Zhou Zhenghui felt quite displeased.
Wasn’t this a constant reminder that his future woman was just a student who had co of age?
Just thinking about it suffocated him, thankfully, he was also of marriageable age; otherwise, he would feel even more distressed.
"He, and how do you plan to be rude?" As she spoke, Xie Jingzi’s hand was already pressing on his waist, ready to ’train’ him with her little hand if he said anything unpleasant.
Of course, she learned this move from her Third Sister-in-law.
It was also the first ti she used it against Zhou Zhenghui.
Thus, when Xie Jingzi’s hand pressed on Zhou Zhenghui’s sturdy waist, he didn’t see how his handso face stiffened, his entire body freezing, not daring to move.
Seeing him silent, Xie Jingzi pressed harder, "Say it, how do you plan to be rude?"
"Hmm... little girl, where did you learn this move from?" Zhou Zhenghui’s peach blossom eyes lowered, and as her hand pressed on his waist, his hand swiftly covered hers, his voice deep as he asked—
