However, he still had a good impression of Xue Xuan from yesterday. He casually picked up a water glass from the table to drink some water, and mumbled, "You've been too busy lately. Why don't you go on vacation and have a good rest, Shushu?" He thought he was an open-minded and kind future father-in-law, and nodded to Xue Xuan, "Xuan has also worked hard. Go with Shushu."

The young couple went on vacation by themselves; what a great show of sincerity and trust the father-in-law showed!

He no longer called Xue Xuan "Master Xue" but "Ah Xuan," clearly indicating that he had truly accepted this son-in-law. Shen Wangshu was also happy for Xue Xuan.

Seeing that her father was so understanding, she smiled and said with relief, "I proposed to Ah Xuan, and he said yes."

"Pfft...cough cough cough..." Father Shen was drinking water when he heard this and immediately started coughing!

"What marriage proposal?!" He nearly choked on his saliva, but he couldn't care less at that moment. He jumped up and down as if his pants were on fire, shouting, "How come I didn't know?! How could you not discuss it with your father?!"

Although he had accepted his future son-in-law, he hadn't expected his daughter to marry him so soon! His precious daughter was still young and could spend a few more years with them, so why was she in such a hurry to get married? Mentioning this made the father extremely sad, and he looked at the villain who had taken away his beloved daughter with angry eyes.

I'm sorry, yesterday's favorability rating has been reset to zero.

and……

"Why did you propose?!" Mr. Shen roared.

This is clearly a man's job!

"It's probably because Ah Xuan is too popular; I'm going to tie him down." Shen Wangshu laughed uncontrollably, watching her father, dressed in his pajamas, jumping up and down in front of her, completely devoid of conscience. She shook her head with laughter, and seeing her father shaking his head with great enthusiasm, she said with a smile, "So, if Ah Xuan proposed to me, Dad, would you agree?"

Her eyes gleamed mischievously. Seeing her father nod, she quickly shook her head after realizing what he meant, then burst out laughing and rested her head on Xue Xuan's shoulder, not daring to look at her father again. This action saddened her father even more.

“Shushu has grown up and doesn’t love her father anymore.” Father Shen lowered his head and shrank into the shadows.

He looked extremely pitiful. Xue Xuan lowered his head and thought for a moment, then patted Shen Wangshu's shoulder, got up and walked to Shen's father's side, bent down and placed his strong hand on Shen's father's shoulder.

“Uncle, don’t be disappointed, she still loves you,” he said dryly.

Feeling comfort and warmth from his son-in-law, Mr. Shen's expression softened considerably. Just as he was about to express his gratitude for his concern, he heard the young man continue in a steady voice, "It's just that she loves me more now."

Master Xue was certain that in his lover's heart, no one, not even Shen's parents, held a place as important as himself. This inexplicable sense of self-satisfaction brought a faint smile to his eyes. It was a perfectly amiable smile, but in Shen's father's eyes, it was clearly ostentatious. Shen's father immediately stood up angrily, glaring at Xue Xuan and grinding his teeth.

"Don't go too far." He lowered his voice, worried that Shen Wangshu, who was not far away, would hear him.

Xue Xuan looked at him in silence.

"We haven't agreed yet!" Father Shen struggled to think, scratching his head, then stared defiantly, saying, "Marriage is arranged by parents and matchmakers! There's no reason for a private engagement!"

Xue Xuan coldly looked at Shen's father, who had transformed into a feudal parent, and remained silent.

"What are you saying?" Just as Mrs. Shen left her room to make breakfast, she saw Mr. Shen and Xue Xuan gazing at each other affectionately in the corner. This surprised her, and then she saw Shen Wangshu curled up on the sofa with a soft pillow, watching the scene with great interest, and she immediately felt helpless.

She wondered if Mr. Shen had become like a child in his old age, as he had been much more lively lately, seemingly free of all his worries. Mrs. Shen was quite pleased with this change, and she walked over to Shen Wangshu with a smile, asking, "What's wrong with your dad this time?"

The word "again" reveals a lot.

Mr. Shen immediately looked at Mrs. Shen with a very aggrieved expression.

"It's nothing, just catching up," Shen Wangshu said with a smile, hugging her mother's warm arm.

She nestled against the woman, feeling her gentle hand patting her back, as if coaxing her to sleep.

"Shushu proposed to him!" Mr. Shen was already complaining from the side.

The gentle patting stopped.

Shen Wangshu sensed a threatening aura, her lips twitched as she looked up, and saw her mother giving her an exceptionally gentle smile.

"A marriage proposal?" Mother Shen asked with a smile.

"I want to marry Ah Xuan as soon as possible." Shen Wangshu cupped her mother's hand and said with a hint of coquetry and flattery, "If Father doesn't want to, you won't, will you?"

She secretly grinned at Shen's father, seemingly furious that he had complained. Shen's father shuddered, then straightened up, revealing a cunning expression as he whispered to Shen's mother, who held the most power in the Shen family, "Shushu is our precious darling, how can we let her so easily be given to someone else!"

"Without experiencing hardship, one cannot know how to cherish." Father Shen continued to slander him.

"Marriage is definitely on their way. They're grown up now, and there's no reason for them to just date without getting married." Marriage is the only guarantee for a woman, so Shen's mother naturally wants Shen Wangshu to marry Xue Xuan as soon as possible.

However, like Shen's father, she was reluctant to part with her daughter. After thinking for a moment, she said to Xue Xuan, "I agree to the marriage." She reached out and touched Shen's father's dejected head, and said carefully, "But her father is right. If she marries you too easily, Shushu will lose her composure. Hurry up and prepare for the proposal and the wedding. We want the most lively one."
