CHAPTER 171 - Stepmother's son (24)

World Six. Stepmother’s son (24)

“Jiang Pingyang?”

“Yeah.”

“You and Jiang Pingyang are dating?”

Ding Rou was about to push open the study when her hand paused.

“Uh huh, I’m dating Jiang Pingyang.” Xue Xue glanced at the crack in the door she had deliberately left behind, and then said to her father in a delicate and soft voice. “Dad is still young, how come his ears are not working well?”

“…” Xue Wangui, who had been shocked by the news and had his mouth wide open, glared at his daughter in displeasure. “What nonsense? Cheeky girl.”

Xue Xue smiled playfully.

“Don’t just try to laugh and muddle through!”

Xue Wangui originally wanted slap the table and shout angrily as if scolding to his subordinates, but when he thought that the person standing in front of him was not a subordinate but his precious daughter, his actions were naturally different. Not even the slightest deterrent.

After getting along for this period of time, Xue Xue can be said to have a clear understanding of her father’s temperament, and naturally knew that Xue Wangui would not do anything to her.

In fact, Xue Wangui really couldn’t do anything to Xue Xue.

Even if he blew his beard and glared, and angry in his heart, he was reluctant to say a single harsh word to his precious daughter.

“Dad, if you don’t speak, I’ll take it as your agreement?” Xue Xue looked at Xue Wangui cautiously, and said a little flaterringly. “You can rest assured that your daughter’s eyes are good. Brother Ping Yang will definitely be my good husband and your good son-in-law.”

“…… What did you say?”

Seeing his daughter’s excited look, Xue Wangui’s expression got uglier as if he had swallowed a fly.

“Anyway, Dad, believe me, Brother Ping Yang will never let you down.”

“…”

Xue Wangui didn’t know what to say anymore.

He now finally understood his friend’s mood after mentioning that his daughter has a boyfriend, the feeling of “when a girl is of age, she must be married off”.

Thinking about how long Xue Xue had known Jiang Pingyang, and was already complimenting him in front of him, Xue Wangui’s inner feelings were really subtle, both in relief that his daughter had really grown up, and in sadness that from now on the role of father would no longer be the most important man in his daughter’s heart.

Ordinary people would still feel this way, not to mention that Xue Mi was almost raised by Xue Wangui with one hand, the feeling was more profound.

Seeing Xue Wangui’s tangled face, Xue Xue burst out laughing.

Before he could glare at her, Xue Xue had already walked around behind the chair and put her hand on Xue Wangui’s shoulder to massage.

“You…”

“Dad will always be the most important person in my life.” Xue Xue’s voice was delicate and awkward, but more sincere. “It was you and my mother who gave me life, brought me into this world, and allowed me to grow up safely and healthily.”

“This will never change.”

“The connection between me and my father’s blood, and the memories of you growing up with me, even if I have my own family in the future, my father will still be the most important presence in this family.”

“Because without you, there will be no me.”

These words were from the heart.

Xue Wangui originally thought that his daughter was going to continue to convince him to accept Jiang Pingyang, but he did not expect her to say such warm words.

For a moment, Xue Wangui felt that even if he closed his eyes and left the world at this moment, he would not have any regrets, but soon, he put such thoughts to the back of his mind.

No matter how old a daughter was, she was still a daughter. As a father, he must be his daughter’s strongest support.

Thinking of this, Xue Wangui already had a plan in mind.

“You’re pursuing?”

“Ah… um.”

“When did you fall in love? Tell the truth.” Xue Wangui asked as he closed his eyes and enjoyed his daughter’s rare “filial piety”. “Don’t think about fooling around. Although Jiang Pingyang is your Aunt Ding’s son, you have never really met each other.”

Xue Wangui knew Xue Xue very well.

But Xue Xue has long been prepared for this.

“I heard people mention him when I was in school, and then I read his papers and related reports in scientific journals?”

“Scientific journals? You would read something like that?”

“Dad, that’s not right. Who do you think your daughter is?” Xue Xue said angrily. “It’s related to my final report, can I not read it?”

“Didn’t you study Financial Management?”

“There are still electives, I took Space Engineering Theory.”

Xue Xue did not lie, Xue Mi did take this course, but not out of interest, just to accompany her friend to chase a man.

Although Xue Wangui felt that Xue Xue’s reason was a bit far-fetched, he could not find anything to refute, so he temporarily agreed with her statement.

“So you fell in love with him like this? But I remember that you clearly told me that you liked An Yang.”

“Brother An Yang? Well, that’s because I used to be ignorant and mistaken my affection for my brother for love. I just did something stupid and wrong, but I also paid the price, so let’s settle it with him.”

“Wait.” Even though Xue Xue spoke very fast, Xue Wangui was still sensitive and caught the key words in the words. Turning his head, he asked sharply. “What price?”

“Dad…” Xue Xue bit her lip and looked away. “It’s all over, I really don’t want to mention it.”

“Xue Mi!”

“Please don’t ask, I wa confused, I really… already know I’m wrong.”

Xue Wangui was also an experienced person, and he didn’t say anything when he saw his daughter insist. What it was, he roughly guessed in his heart.

“You… ah!” Xue Wangui, who was angry and disappointed, sighed heavily. “Nonsense! What a fool! Xue Mi, I really spoiled you too much before!”

Xue Xue observed Xue Wangui’s expression, and when she realized that it wasn’t too bad, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She awas actually hesitant to talk to Xue Wangui about this matter, but she finally made up her mind when she thought that it would be easier for Ding Rou or Jiang Anyang to put her in a passive position.

Fortunately, although Xue Wangui looked very unhappy, judging his reaction to this incident from his breathing and eyes, Xue Xue knew that she had passed the hurdle.

In this way, she didn’t have to worry about Jiang Anyang using this as a bargaining chip. Although she might have thought a little far, but from Xue Xue’s observation of the mother and son during this time showed that Jiang Anyang’s temperament was uncertain, unable to tell right and wrong, and Ding Rou was also not as harmless as she seemed on the surface, but rather scheming, so she had to prepare for the rain at the same time design a trap.

Xue Xue thought, it was better to say it from her own mouth than to hear it from someone else’s.

As it turned out, she was right.
