Father He and Mother He argued.
I guess it's only for you.
He Shaochen kept this in his heart and didn't say it out loud. This was actually one of the conditions for Father He to agree to He Shaochen's marriage, but he believed that Qiao Qiao would definitely be able to pull through.
"You can say that."
"Will I be able to do it well?" Qiao Qiao asked uncertainly.
He Shaochen raised his eyebrows. "You don't have confidence?"
Qiao Qiao immediately became serious and expressed her loyalty to the organization. "No, even if I have to go through fire and water, I will still complete the mission given to me by the organization!"
"Don't talk nonsense."
"Haha."
After Qiao Qiao and the others left.
At night.
After Father He and Mother He were alone in the bedroom, Mother He finally couldn't hold back her dissatisfaction. "Guan Rui, why did you agree so easily?"
Father He was leaning against the bed and reading a book. When he heard Mother He's words, he glanced at her and asked, "What are you dissatisfied with?"
"I'm dissatisfied, I'm very dissatisfied."
Mother He left the dressing table and sat on the bed. She looked at her husband and said, "I don't like Joe Qiao and her family. Don't you think that they are very snobbish? When I think about becoming in-laws with such people in the future, I really can't accept it. "
Mother He was also the descendant of a prestigious family, so she had a strong sense of social status. The reason she agreed to attend the family banquet today was because she was forced by her son to give her a heads-up. She also had the mentality of observing the Qiao family, and the results were not beyond her expectations.
This family was full of philistine aura, especially that Aunt Joe. Once she opened her mouth, she didn't stop praising Joe Qiao to the heavens, as if it was her son's fortune to be able to marry her daughter.
If it wasn't for her long maintained upbringing that told her to be calm and reserved, she might have quarreled with Aunt Joe.
It was too much.
Even if he was praising his own child, he shouldn't be praising him in such a manner.
"Oh, a little, but you don't live with them. What's the big deal?" Father He's expression was indifferent. He was not moved by Mother He's words.
Mother He panicked when she saw this. "But our son is marrying their daughter! After so many generations of Family He, this is the first time he is marrying a commoner's child. If this gets out, everyone will laugh at my Shaochen. "
"What are you worried about? Even Shaochen doesn't care. Can you relax? "
"How am I supposed to relax?" Mother He panicked. "You know that Uncle and his family have been eyeing us covetously for a long time. What if Shaochen is affected negatively because of that girl?"
Father He sighed. He closed the book and put it on the bedside table. He looked at Mother He seriously and asked, "Why do you hate Joe Qiao so much?"
"Because she doesn't deserve our Shaochen!"
"Is that so? Except for not being born into a rich family, that girl is pretty good in all aspects. " Father He said. He got out of bed and walked out of the bedroom. Not long after, he came back in with a file bag and handed it to Mother He.
"Do you think I agreed to Shaochen's request so easily? I already sent someone to investigate that girl. She has excellent grades since she was young. She received scholarships every year. She even skipped several grades and was admitted to Lan Emperor University. During that time, she published many papers. To have such results at such a young age is pretty good. "
Mother He casually flipped through the stack of documents and then put it aside. She said disapprovingly, "Yes, I admit that the girl is very capable. However, her character is very flawed."
"Oh?"
Speaking of this, Mother He's expression did not look too good. Under her husband's direct gaze, she gritted her teeth and said, "Didn't I see her once before? That girl has a sharp tongue. She'll definitely be a ruthless character in the future. "
"Then can you tell me what you said to her that made her so sharp-tongued?" Father He asked.
Mother He's face turned green and white at the question. She looked a little annoyed and glared at Father He. "You're set on Joe Qiao, aren't you?"
Otherwise, why would he help that girl with every word?
Father He's expression was calm. He looked at his wife with a hint of helplessness in his eyes. "Yixuan, it's not me who's set on that girl. It's your son, Shaochen, who's set on her. Based on your understanding of Shaochen, do you think there's any leeway for him to change his mind?"
"But I can't just stand by and watch him make a mistake!" Mother He suddenly became agitated.
Her entire body trembled slightly. Today's family banquet had left a terrible impression on her. Whenever she thought of Aunt Joe's snobbish face, she felt terrible. She wanted nothing more than to cut her off and stay away from her.
Mother He covered her face and sobbed softly. "My Shaochen is so outstanding. Why must he be wronged to marry a child who grew up in that kind of family? When I think of him being pestered by that family in the future, I feel so terrible that I want to cry. "
Father He shook his head helplessly and pulled Mother He into his arms. He said calmly, "You said that Shaochen is an outstanding child. Don't you believe in his taste? Do you think he's someone who's so easily fooled? "
"But … But …"
"Just try to accept Joe Qiao for once. I saw that girl today and I think she's not bad. Actually, don't you think she's quite different from her parents? Maybe it'll be different. "
"Anyway, you won't persuade Shaochen again, right?" Mother He suddenly looked up at Father He and asked sternly.
Her eyes were filled with deep disappointment. She was already annoyed that her son didn't let her stop worrying. Now, her husband was the same. Mother He suddenly had the illusion that the whole world had betrayed her.
Father He saw that Mother He was going down a dead end again and sighed. "It's not that I don't want to persuade him, but I know my son. Once he's made up his mind, there's no room for negotiation."
"Could it be that he doesn't even listen to his own parents?" Mother He shrieked.
Father He knew that they couldn't continue the conversation. He shrugged. "You can try. I won't stop you."
Mother He saw Father He's attitude and became even angrier. She pushed Father He away and said coldly, "Forget it. You're on Shaochen's side. I don't want to talk to you now."
After saying that, she lay down on the bed and covered her face with the blanket. She looked like she was isolated from the world.
Father He was also worried. He rubbed his forehead tiredly and finally lay down to sleep.
Bedfellows dreaming different dreams.
The next day.
The relationship between Qiao Qiao and He Shaochen was publicized by all the major newspapers. Even the news reported this matter. In this era of information, as long as one was willing, the news could spread all over the country.
