"Okay, Uncle Xia."
Huo Sinan stood up just as he was about to sit down.
Xia Fanxing grabbed Huo Sinan's hand with some concern.
Huo Sinan patted Xia Fanxing's hand to reassure her, and Xia Fanxing let go of his hand.
Huo Sinan followed Xia Jianguo into the study. Xia Fanxing wanted to go over to eavesdrop, but was pulled back to the sofa by Tong Yunshu who had come back from getting some water.
"Don't worry! Your dad can't eat him."
After Tong Yun finished speaking, he took an apple from the table and handed it to Xia Fanxing.
"Eat an apple and stay here and watch TV with me."
How could Xia Fanxing be in the mood to eat an apple right now? He had no interest in watching what was on TV. He kept looking towards the study door, worried that Xia Jianguo would say something excessive. What would he do if Huo Sinan didn't want him anymore?
In the study, Xia Jianguo looked at Huo Sinan who followed in and asked him to sit opposite the desk.
"Sinan, your uncle has watched you grow up. Although you just went abroad for a while, your uncle also knows that you have always been an excellent person."
"But our hearts are very different now. I hope you can understand our feelings as parents."
"Now I give you two choices. The first is to find a job with higher security. The second is that I hope you can take the initiative to separate from Xingxing."
Before Huo Sinan came, he knew that this trip might not go smoothly. What was coming eventually came, but he did not expect Xia Jianguo's attitude to be so firm. However, he also understood the heart of a father.
Put yourself in his shoes. If Huo Sinan were in Xia Jianguo's position, he would also not agree with his daughter having a boyfriend who has a dangerous job and has no time for work.
"Uncle Xia, I'm sorry, I can't do this. I can't give up the job I love, and I can't give up the person I love."
"I can't promise you that I will make Xingxing happy or that there will be no mistakes at work in the future, but I will do my best to take care of her and love her, and to improve my professional skills. You must protect yourself at work and not let yourself get hurt."
Xia Jianguo looked at Huo Sinan for a long time without saying anything.
Even on the battlefield or in a fire scene, Huo Sinan had never felt so nervous.
Xia Jianguo picked up the health tea on his desk, took a sip and then spoke slowly.
"What if I always disagree?"
Huo Sinan stood straight, his eyes serious and his attitude firm.
"I will prove it to you until I get your approval."
Xia Jianguo chuckled.
"If I send the stars abroad, do you think there will still be a chance for you guys after seven or eight years?"
Huo Sinan was a little panicked. He could wait, but he was not sure whether Xia Fanxing would do the same as him.
The world is so big, there are always people better than you. Huo Sinan can't guarantee that if Xia Fanxing really goes abroad and meets someone better than him, he will be tempted.
Huo Sinan just thought about it now, and he felt a sharp pain in his heart as if someone had grabbed it. He didn't want to let go and still wanted to fight for it, even if there was only a tiny possibility.
"Uncle Xia, I know that if you really insist on doing this, Xingxing will be very painful, but she will choose to compromise, and so will I."
"No matter whether you send Xingxing abroad or not, as long as she doesn't break up with me, I won't take the initiative to break up. I will wait for her, whether it's five years or ten years, I will wait."
"If Xingxing really meets someone who can take care of her, love her, and make her happy, as long as she says she doesn't love me anymore, I will let her go."
"But now, if you'll excuse me, I can't and won't let go."
Xia Jianguo sighed. He had actually thought about sending Xia Fanxing abroad, but yesterday, after talking with Xia Fanxing, he gave up the idea.
Xia Jianguo had agreed with what Huo Sinan said before, and had already accepted in his heart that he and Xia Fanxing were together.
He just wanted to test again how firm Huo Sinan's feelings for Xia Fanxing were. Now Xia Jianguo felt more at ease.
Xia Jianguo's eyes were full of admiration. If Huo Sinan really had to choose between the two, he would definitely make Xia Fanxing break up with him.
After hearing Huo Sinan's answer, Xia Jianguo was quite satisfied. If a man can give up even his own beliefs, then what else can he not give up?
"Okay, I agree. Tell your parents to come over tomorrow! We'll have dinner together."
The surprise came a little too suddenly, and Huo Sinan saluted Xia Jianguo directly.
"Thank you, Uncle Xia."
Xia Jianguo patted Huo Sinan on the shoulder.
"I hope you can always remember what I said today. I agreed to your engagement simply because of what you just said and Xingxing's attitude."
"Yesterday Xingxing told us that she has chosen you. As parents, our request is simple: we just want him to be happy. I don't want to hear what you have to say now. I will see what you do in the future. I hope you won't disappoint us, and don't disappoint Xingxing either."
Huo Sinan wanted to say something else, but I felt that everything he said now would be so powerless.
"Uncle Xia, I know that whatever I promise now will be like a blank check to you. I will use my actions to prove to you and Auntie that Xingxing's choice was not wrong, and your decision today is the right one."
Xia Jianguo nodded.
"Okay, let's get out of here! I wonder how anxious Xingxing must be right now."
When Xia Fanxing saw the study door open, she hurried over.
But why did these two people have no expression on their faces? She couldn't see anything. Xia Fanxing was as anxious as an ant on a scorching heat.
Wanting to ask but not daring to, Xia Jianguo saw Xia Fanxing's expression and said with a fierce face, "Your mother is right. It's true that girls cannot be kept at home when they grow up!"
When Xia Fanxing heard what Xia Jianguo said, Huo Sinan also stomped his feet with a smile on his face.
"You did it on purpose."
Huo Sinan walked up to Xia Fanxing and took her hand.
Xia Fanxing was very curious about what Xia Jianguo had said to Huo Sinan.
After dinner, when the two of them were walking outside, they asked about Huo Sinan.
"What did my dad tell you in the study today? Why did he agree?"
Huo Sinan told Xia Fanxing about the conversation between him and Xia Jianguo in the study.
"I believe in you. Even if my parents don't agree now, or even if they send me abroad, whether it's five years, ten years, or even longer, my love for you will never change."
"What's wrong with going abroad? It's not like I can't come back. I will come back to find you secretly. If you have time, you can go abroad to see me. As long as we are both determined to recognize each other, sooner or later they will agree."
