He looked at his son. He was smiling while revealing his white teeth. They were glowing with a cold light like the teeth of a beast. Commander Xia knew that his son, who always created trouble when he was young, was still a rascal. However, he got older so his level got higher.
He liked a senior high student and even claimed that he wanted to marry her! What a scoundrel!
“Dad, you’re so nervous about seeing your daughter-in-law that you forget how to speak. How can you give birth to me? You’re a man. You can’t give birth,” Xia Jinyuan said as he tidied his attire. He held on the handle of the car door and added on with a smile before he got down the car. “You might not have to give in to other people but you must give me some face.”
“The young lady has a hard time, especially after a scoundrel like me laid my eyes on her. Please appear more amiable in front of her instead of your usual dignified manner. It’ll be better if you can smile a little. Of course, you need to be more natural. Don’t let the person I like find out that you’re quarreling with me.”
“You’re already so old and you’re the highest-ranking officer in the military. Why are you even more worried than me? I’ll go and fetch her now. Dad, hurry up and adjust your facial expression.”
“There’s only one daughter-in-law. Don’t scare her away. If not, your son might not have a chance to get his marriage certificate from the Munic.i.p.al Bureau of Civil Affairs anymore.”
Commander Xia turned totally expressionless. Only his son dared to talk to him like this. He waved his hand and said with disdain, “Fine, fine. Get off the car. If I hadn’t said that I will talk to her, I will ask my guard to drive the car away instantly! Is there anyone else that talks to their father like this?”
“Look, you’re angry again. I’m a scoundrel so I have to get a good wife. The father can’t handle his son but the wife will be able to. Shouldn’t you be glad that I found a wife that can take care of me?”
“Also, you only have one person looking after you now. After I marry the lady, there will be two people looking after you. It’s a good bargain for you.” Xia Jinyuan pushed the car door open. After closing it, he bent down and started tidying his attire in the rear mirror. After confirming that he was all prim and proper, he elegantly walked towards his loved one.
In the car, the guard, who had been following Commander Xia for five years, was trying his best to stop his laughter. He smiled and said, “Commander, I feel that the young master is very good now. Weren’t you worried that young master isn’t mixing around with ladies? Now, you don’t have to worry anymore. Young Master found a good daughter-in-law for you.”
The moment he mentioned about the daughter-in-law, Commander Xia felt his head hurting. “You heard him too. He found a senior high student. Isn’t it very scoundrelly? Shouldn’t he at least find a university student? Why did he find a senior high student? She isn’t even an adult yet!”
“That’s alright too. Young Master is just 23 years old. I’ve seen the information about the young lady. She’s almost 17 years old. They are 6 years apart.” As an outsider, the guard could see things more clearly. He started a.n.a.lyzing for Commander Xia, “Young Master will be making contributions in the military in the future. That lady will be entering the military too.”
“There’s six years of difference between them. Once the young lady climbs to a higher position in the military, Young Master will be gaining more influence in the military too. They can work together and become a couple team like Old Master and Old Madam. They will be a romantic legend of the military.”
Grandpa Xia and his wife were also six years apart.
