Xia Ning held his hand, knowing that he was really angry.
Even if they were all looking forward to having a daughter, they would be very happy if they really had a son. After all, it was their child. But these people said it as if he had to be a daughter. There was no way to flatter them.
Sure enough, as soon as he said this, no one at the table spoke. These people were also considered tactful and did not dare to continue flattering.
She originally wanted to make friends with President Qiao, but she didn’t expect to offend him with a few jokes just now. She could only hope that he would quickly forget about it.
Lin Nan looked at Xia Ning, his eyes full of apology.
Xia Ning nodded at him, telling him not to take it to heart.
The meal wasn’t a happy one. If it was any other family’s banquet, Xia Ning and Qiao Yu could have just left in a Huff. However, this was Lin Nan’s invitation, so they had to finish it no matter how bad it tasted.
After the meal, Qiao Yu excused Xia Ning from the house, saying that she was not feeling well.
Lin Nan didn’t ask them to stay. He only apologized again when he saw them off.
In the hotel, Cheng feixuan was discussing with her friends where to go later. When she saw Lin Nan return, she asked,””Did President Qiao leave with Xia Ning?”
Lin Nan nodded.”He has already left.”
“Lin Nan, I was just joking. Please don’t let President Qiao and Xia Ning take it to heart.” The woman who said the wrong thing said again.
“They won’t mind,” Lin Nan said calmly.
“Lin Nan, do you want to come with us?” Cheng feixuan asked.
Lin Nan looked into the private room and said,””I’ll send mom and dad up first. You guys go ahead and play. I’ll come and pick you up later.”
“En!” Cheng feixuan nodded.
Looking at Lin Nan’s back as he left, the girls next to him said,””Fei Xuan, I’m so envious of you. You have such a good husband.”
Cheng feixuan’s face was filled with sweetness, and her happiness was beyond words. Lin Nan was really good to her.
The girl who had just apologized sighed and said, ” ” Actually, I wasn’t joking, but seeing that Mr. And Mrs. Qiao are angry, I could only say that. Fei Xuan, I really think that it’s the best thing to let your daughter and Mrs. Qiao’s son get engaged. You know that you …” At this point, she sighed and continued, ” this is not the time to talk about such a boring topic, but this is the reality that we have to face. Lin Nan is a man and he can’t take care of a child well. But looking at Lin Nan’s relations.h.i.+p with Xia Ning, she definitely won’t treat your daughter badly. ”
Hearing this, Cheng feixuan’s brows furrowed. ” Don’t say such things again. ”
“Mm! I know. I don’t dare to offend them. I only dare to say it in front of you!”
The few women exchanged a few words and walked outside.
In the car, Xia Ning was looking straight ahead with a dark expression on her face. Her mind was filled with images of those women who wanted her son to marry someone else’s daughter.
After a while, she looked at Qiao Yu and said,””I’m telling you, I won’t allow you to use your child’s happiness as a bet for your family business and arrange a marriage!”
Qiao Yu looked at his wife’s expression and immediately said,”of course not. Marriage is their own business, as long as they think it’s good.”
Xia Ning looked at him suspiciously.”Can I really?”
Qiao Yu thought for a moment and said,”the son can say whatever he wants. For a man, if he can’t even choose a good partner to marry, then it’s useless. As for the daughter, she’s easily cheated. Of course, he has to check.”
“And you said you don’t value women over men!” Xia Ning snorted.
This time, Qiao Yu readily admitted,”yes.”
Xia Ning’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets when she heard that. However, the words that he said as soon as he came down made her swallow her words.
“Compared to myself, I care more about you. Don’t you think I’m favoring women over men?”
