"Yes." Old Master Xiao nodded and said, "We need to ask Xiaoxiao's opinion. Ask her what her requirements are for the engagement. Our family will do our best to meet them. This child lost her parents when she was young and has a hard life. We can't neglect her just because she doesn't have parents there. We must go through all the necessary procedures and everything that needs to be done. "
When Xiao Yanjun heard what Old Man Xiao said, the look in his eyes softened. He nodded and responded calmly.
After Old Man Xiao finished talking about Xiao Yanjun and Lin Xiaoxiao, he looked at Xiao's father again. His expression changed and his tone was full of disgust and dissatisfaction.
He hummed, "It's time to take charge of your wife. Although I'm old, I'm not confused. Yanjun brought his girlfriend back today. What's the matter with her calling Xue Qi over?"
"There are some things I just don't want to get involved in and turn a blind eye to, but that doesn't mean I really don't care about anything."
Before the meal, Zheng Rumeng was bullying Lin Xiaoxiao everywhere. He didn't say anything because he wanted to see if this girl was a little lamb who would be bullied by others. As a result, Mr. Xiao was very satisfied.
To be the granddaughter-in-law of the Xiao family, one must not only be kind-hearted but also smart.
"I understand, Dad." Father Xiao nodded.
What Zheng Rumeng did today was indeed a bit excessive, and Xiao's father knew it.
Old Master Xiao glared at him, then looked at Xiao Yanjun and sighed, "You two, father and son, have the same temper. It's been so many years, and the relationship between father and son has not only not eased, but it's getting worse day by day. I won't be able to rest in peace when I, an old man, pass away."
“…”
Xiao Yanjun didn't say anything, as if Old Man Xiao was not talking about him.
Father Xiao glanced at Xiao Yanjun, and seeing his cold face, his expression immediately turned cold as well.
He is the father, do you expect him to bow to his son?
This is simply impossible.
He also knew that the reason why Xiao Yanjun treated him like this was because before his mother died of illness, she wanted to see him for the last time, but he was busy with work at that time and could not come back. That was because, he didn't know, she left as soon as she said she would and did not wait for him to come back.
Later he remarried and married Zheng Rumeng. Because of work transfer, he had more time, and Zheng Rumeng was always by his side, so he spent more time with Zheng Rumeng.
This contrast made Xiao Yanjun resent him even more.
But this cannot be blamed on him. First, he and Xiao's mother had no feelings for each other. Second, Xiao's mother had to take care of two children and was unwilling to go to his place. Besides, his position at that time was not as high as it is later, so he did not have as much time and energy.
Old Master Xiao glanced at the two of them, feeling quite angry at their attitude. He finally waved his hand and said, "Get out! Don't get in my way."
The father and son, together, are older than him, but neither of them gives him peace of mind.
When the three of them came out of the study, they saw Zheng Rumeng and Lin Xiaoxiao sitting on the sofa. Zheng Rumeng's face didn't look very good, but Lin Xiaoxiao had a calm expression.
Xiao Yanjun waved at Lin Xiaoxiao, motioning her to come over.
Seeing this, Lin Xiaoxiao stood up and walked over, then heard Xiao Yanjun say, "I'll take you home."
Obviously, Xiao Yanjun didn't tell anyone that she was already living with him.
But this is also true. For example, Zheng Rumeng already suspected that she was after Xiao Yanjun's money. If she knew that she was living with Xiao Yanjun, I wonder what she would think.
