“Aye, Mom, Dad, you don’t need to keep asking!” Cheng Xiao Xiao’s cheekswere burning up. She pouted and said, “Just… just ignore him!”


Even though Cheng Xiao Xiao grew up in the 21st century andwas no stranger to love affairs, but it was still difficult to talk about itwith her parents. So she decided to just keep her mouth shut!


Having experienced that themselves, the parents could already tell fromCheng Xiao Xiao’s shy demeaner that she was indeed quite fond of Mo Xuanzun.She just wouldn’t admit to it was all.


Luckily Cheng Biyuan found this guye quite acceptable so far andMrs. Cheng had only heard good things about him and already has a goodimpression even before she has met him. What remained unknown was what the guyewould think should he ever found out he was so popular!


Cheng Biyuan and Mrs. Cheng exchanged a look and both saw the smile ineach other’s eyes.


“Xiao Xiao, why don’t you bring him over so I can meet him too!” Mrs.Cheng was very happy that her daughter finally found someone she was interestedin.


“Mom, he’s a tool! It’s better that you don’t meet him!” Cheng Xiao Xiaodid not want to address her mother’s question. She was already fidgeting in herseat.


Mrs. Cheng wasn’t going to let her off the hook so easily and continuedsaying, “Well, I must meet him sooner or later. Xiao Xiao, since he had alreadyannounced publicly that you are a couple, that is what people think now. If youare both into each other, you must tell him and ask him to have his family payus a visit and we will make this official.”

“Mom, what are you talking about?!” Cheng Xiao Xiao protested loudly.Her mother made her feel that she was unwanted merchandize and she just wantedto wrap her up in a nice bow tie and gift her away.

Her daughter’s reaction toward the subject displeased Mrs. Cheng, “XiaoXiao, mom is telling you as I see it. He addressed to your father asfather-in-law in front of everyone. Now he is staying at our place. If we don’tquickly finalize this betrothal, there will be too much rumors fly around aboutyou.”


“Um, mom, just let me be. I don’t care what others have to say aboutme!” Cheng Xiao Xiao face was beet red and she couldn’t make eye contacts withher parents. Standing up, she announced, “Mom, Dad, I am going to go talk toOld Man Ying!”


She turned around and ran off before her parents could respond. She didnot want to continue engaging in the subject that drove her insane.


Mrs. Cheng chuckled and scolded after seeing her daughter running awayfrom the subject, “This kid, she wouldn’t even spend some time to chitchat withme!”


“XIao XIao is all grown up now. You don’t need to worry too much abouther!”


Cheng Biyuan took a look at his wife and added, “You shouldn’t have saidto her what you said earlier. She is a girl after all, how was she supposed tobring up that subject? You should bring it up to Mo Xuanzun when you see him.If he truly wanted to be with XIao XIao, have him mentioned that to his family.One way or another, they need to make this official.”

Ye, I know!” responded Mrs. Cheng tenderly.

Whilst the two were discussing about their daughter, there was someoneelse waiting in their courtyard as though he was antic.i.p.ating someone’s arrival.


Shortly, he saw the one who hadn’t been gone for long returning. He washappily inside and jumped out!


As Cheng Xiao Xiao was leaving her parents’ courtyard, she was too busycussing out another someone so she didn’t pay too much attention to hersurrounding and she ran straight into someone.


“Ouch, XIao XIao, why did you slam into me?”


A familiar smell surrounded her and she immediately pushed him away. Shelooked at her dubiously and asked, “I thought you were the one who slammed intome?”


“What? I was standing here the entire time! You weren’t watching whereyou were going and slammed into me!” Mo Xuanzun pouted and made aninnocent-looking face.
