Addiction sets in at night; even the abstinent older man has fallen for it.

Chapter 410 No Blessings, But Respect

Xia Guiying opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end it turned into a sigh.

Never mind, I'll leave it at that for now.

My mouth is dry, I'll go drink some water first.

In any case, Qin Dongyang is showing signs of wavering.

If you push him too far, he'll refuse to agree.

Let him calm down for a couple of days, and she'll take him to eavesdrop on the day of the Beginning of Winter.

If we resolve the issues with Yang Guanghui and Fu Zhenlong first, the matter of my daughter and Fu Zhengting will naturally fall into place.

She glared at Qin Dongyang before turning and leaving.

The door closed, and Xia Guiying could no longer see him. A slight smile slowly appeared on Qin Dongyang's lips.

His wife was being affectionate with him just now, and he felt like he was back in his twenties.

Back then, we were young, full of passion, and full of expectations for everything. We dared to dream and fight.

So many years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Time really flies.

At his age, he doesn't want to worry about so many things anymore.

Otherwise, life is exhausting.

Actually, what his wife said just now really hit a nerve.

Especially now, thinking about it carefully again, I find it makes a lot of sense.

The best ending would be for my daughter to live a peaceful and safe life, marry the person she loves, and then give birth to a healthy and chubby grandson for him and his wife to raise.

But pride is what gets in the way.

Ah, forget it.

Let's decide in a couple of days.

He needs to calm down today.

Jiang Hui noticed that Xia Guiying hadn't come to the living room yet, and was about to get up to check on her when she saw Xia Guiying approaching.

She pulled Xia Guiying to sit down next to her and asked anxiously, "Aying, how are you?"

"She's quite proud of herself; that temper won't dissipate so quickly." Xia Guiying poured herself a cup of tea and drank it to moisten her throat.

Jiang Hui lowered her head in sorrow.

Xia Guiying added, "But don't worry, in a few days, Dongyang will slap himself in the face, and slap him hard."

Seeing how certain Xia Guiying was, Jiang Hui was a little incredulous. "Really, Aying?"

Xia Guiying drank another cup of tea, put down the teacup, patted Jiang Hui's shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, I know Dongyang better than anyone. He's just stubborn but soft-hearted."

She smiled and asked Ling Ya-kun and Grandpa Qin, "Brother Kun, Dad, don't you think so?"

The two looked at each other and then nodded in unison.

Seeing Ling Ya-kun's complicated expression, and then looking at Ling's mother, who also looked conflicted, Xia Gui-ying stopped smiling and sincerely apologized to the two of them, "A-Yu's father, A-Yu's mother, I'm so sorry. I was very certain about A-Yu before, but seeing how certain Ruo-han is about Fu Zheng-ting, and how certain Fu Zheng-ting is about Ruo-han..."

Because the two families have a good relationship, it is necessary to make things clear directly.

Although Ling's parents were heartbroken, they were also moved when they recalled the scene of Fu Zhengting kneeling down.

Now that Xia Guiying has said this, they can't say anything more.

We cannot offer blessings, but we must still show respect.

Ling Ya-kun sighed, "That brat A-Yu is not lucky enough to marry Ruo-han."

Although he respected Xia Guiying's idea, he blamed his son in his heart for not fighting for it.

If that brat had even tried, Fu Zhengting wouldn't have beaten him to it so quickly.

That brat, just wait for his punishment.

Seeing Ling Yakun's solemn expression, and wondering what he was thinking, Xia Guiying was worried that he might be upset, so she continued to comfort him, "Brother Kun, Ayu's good fortune is yet to come. He will definitely meet a girl who is just as fortunate as Ruohan, but even more suitable for him than Ruohan."

"I hope so." Ling Ya-kun was in a bad mood and didn't want to say much more.

They rushed over so quickly, thinking the wedding was a done deal, but it all came to nothing. It's hard not to be angry.

"Since there's nothing else going on in Dongyang, let's head back now."

He couldn't very well give Xia Guiying a sour look; he could only vent his bad mood when he got back.

"I'll have the driver take you back."

The driver went to the garage to get the car.

Xia Guiying and Jiang Hui first saw the two out.

Upon reaching the entrance, Ling Yakun saw Ling Jieyu's sports car still parked outside, but after looking around, he didn't see anyone.

What has that brat been up to?

Before the driver could drive off, Ling Ya-kun dialed Ling Jie-yu's number.

The phone rang for a while but no one answered. Ling Yakun's face darkened, and there was a murderous glint in his eyes.

Ling Jieyu had just arrived at the hospital when he saw the call from his elderly father, and he was a little scared.

The old father will surely come to interrogate him.

I'll definitely get a language lesson when I get back.

Hang up now, he'll get a much worse lesson when he gets back.

Sigh, avoiding it isn't a problem, I'll just accept it anyway.

He was mentally prepared to be scolded, so he carefully swiped the screen to answer the call, deliberately holding the phone a little away from his face.

Seeing Ling Jieyu's expression, Mu Tiantian could guess what was going on.

I can only apologize to Ling's parents.

When Fu Zhengting saw Mu Tiantian staring at Ling Jieyu, he immediately became jealous.

He turned her face back, making her look at him.

Looking at the domineering yet childish man, Mu Tiantian smiled charmingly, "Brother Shen, you're just so jealous."

"So what if I'm jealous!" Fu Zhengting retorted matter-of-factly.

"Too much vinegar is bad for you," Mu Tiantian said with a grin.

On my way back, I was listening to the song "Living" and it made me feel really depressed thinking about life and death. But now, after arguing with Fu Zhengting, I feel much happier.

Sorrow and joy coexist.

"Whether it's good or bad, you can only look at me anyway!" Fu Zhengting declared domineeringly.

"Of course, Brother Shen, you're the only one in my eyes. Other men are no human beings to me." Mu Tiantian fawned over him, professing her loyalty.

After saying that, she felt that it wasn't quite right to say it that way. Looking at Ling Jieyu again, she saw that Ling Jieyu's glance back clearly showed his displeasure.

She chuckled and added, "Anyway, what I mean is..."

Fu Zhengting didn't want her to say another word to Ling Jieyu, so despite his injured knee, he opened the car door and took Mu Tiantian's hand as they got out from his side.

Mu Tiantian grabbed Fu Zhengting's arm to support him, closed the car door, and didn't forget to thank Ling Jieyu in the driver's seat, "Ling Jieyu, you've worked hard, thank you!"

Ling Jieyu swiped the screen and waited for his father on the other end of the phone to speak, but his father didn't say anything, so he didn't dare to speak first.

He got out of the car, locked it, and tossed the car keys to Mu Tiantian.

Mu Tiantian was about to let go of Fu Zhengting to take the car keys.

Fu Zhengting caught it first.

His gaze towards Ling Jieyu was somewhat complicated.

Although Ling Jieyu spent time with Mu Tiantian during the period when he had amnesia, he minded it.

However, it's clear that Ling Jieyu has no feelings for Mu Tiantian.

His jealousy had finally subsided.

Ling Jieyu was at least a man of principle; he kept his promise.

He held the car keys in one hand and led Mu Tiantian into the hospital with the other.

Mu Tiantian wanted to help Fu Zhengting, but he refused.

"Brother Shen, it's better if I help you."

Mu Tiantian insisted on helping.
