Si Tingyu stopped in his tracks, looking at Shu Chuxiao with a complicated expression. "Uncle Shu, you should know that I am not a beast."
Why would he take advantage of Shu Mowan when he was perfectly fine?
Shu Chuxiao raised his hand and touched his nose.
He knew his words were somewhat insulting, but as a father, he was afraid his daughter would be taken away, and now every man seemed like a bad guy.
After Si Tingyu and Shu Mowan left, Old Master Si, who said he wouldn't help his grandson, said to Shu Chuxiao, "Chuxiao, look at Tingyu, he's handsome and capable, and he and Xiao Xueru are a perfect match. Why don't you treat him like a thief?"
Before Xiao Xueru was found, Shu Chuxiao wasn't so opposed to the arranged marriage. Now that she's back, he's treating Si Tingyu like a thief.
Shu Chuxiao coughed lightly, not answering directly, but instead said, "Uncle, if you had a daughter as good as Wanwan, would you be willing to let her be kidnapped by someone else at such a young age?"
Mr. Si imagined that scene.
Hmm... He finally understood Shu Chuxiao's feelings.
If Si Tingyu hadn't watched Shu Chuxiao grow up, he believed Shu Chuxiao would have kicked him out immediately.
"Chu Xiao, I won't say anything more. You can test him further."
The old man said.
Whether he can win the heart of the beauty depends on his grandson's abilities.
Shu Chuxiao smiled and said, "Uncle, thank you for your understanding."
"Of course, of course."
Old Master Si smiled and said, "Every father wants to keep his daughter by his side."
If it weren't for Silinf's spoiled and willful nature, his affection for her would have been even greater.
Unfortunately, she did too many unreasonable things, and now he only has a headache with her.
"When we get back, I'll give Linf a good talking-to. What she said tonight was really inappropriate."
Thinking of Si Linfu, Old Master Si simply told Shu Chuxiao frankly, "She's becoming more and more capricious these days, and it's giving me a headache."
Silinf was unreasonable, and as her father, he couldn't really sever ties with her, so he could only put up with it.
"If Uncle finds it annoying, he can avoid it."
Shu Chuxiao gave him advice: "She is your daughter, and more importantly, she is the daughter-in-law of the Xu family. You should take better care of her."
"If I could manage things over there, would I be having this headache?"
Old Master Si waved his hand: "Forget it, let's not talk about her anymore, or my head will hurt even more."
Although the Xu family was wealthy, they were all reasonable people and couldn't do anything about the willful Si Linfu. They also couldn't afford to make a big scene, otherwise the two families would never speak to each other again.
To save face for both sides, things have turned out this way.
Shu Chuxiao then said no more.
Outside.
Si Tingyu, under the streetlight, carefully observed Shu Mowan's profile for a long while.
The more he looked, the more it touched his heartstrings.
Have you seen enough?
Shu Mowan had no choice but to speak.
He called her out, but he was only focused on looking at her profile. How could she be so beautiful?
Si Tingyu withdrew his gaze and touched his nose somewhat guiltily.
He and Shu Mowan weren't close enough to warrant saying anything too forward like "she's pretty," so he changed the subject, "Wanwan, I never imagined you'd be Xiao Xueru."
"I remember when you were born, you were so white and beautiful, that's why you were named Hanxue (meaning 'snowy')."
He recalled the scene when Shu Mowan was born.
Actually, it's been so long that his memory has become hazy. He only remembers that she had very fair skin, super big eyes, and a beautiful and cute smile.
It's very popular.
Shu Mowan listened attentively.
After he finished recounting his few memories of her, she raised an eyebrow and said, "Mr. Si called me out just to say this?"
