“Yes, they were poor folks who lived in the countryside, so what? Despite their impoverished conditions, their son has ended up much more successful than your daughter.” Xiao Yaojing’s rage was written all over her face due to her mother’s spiteful remark.

“Feiran, your daughter is right, you’ve crossed the line,” Mr. Xiao interjected as a warning to his wife.

Mrs. Xiao blushed in embarrassment from their chiding, but she remained stubbornly persistent. “Tell me, don’t you think Cheng Xin is foolish? Though she excelled academically, she dropped out of school for a man, and do you know what next? She simply grabbed some guy off the street and married him! How dumb is she?”

Xiao Yaojing’s parents were university professors. They had retired recently and were therefore finally able to spare some time to visit Xiao Yaojing in the city.

However, the more Xiao Yaojing listened to her mother’s rambling, the gloomier her expression was. Before she could utter another word, Mr. Xiao said, “At the end of the day, you still care about your old classmate because she didn’t take the college entrance exam with you for a man.”

“Hmph! Who cares about her?” Mrs. Xiao retorted angrily and glared at her husband.

Xiao Yaojing could finally figure out the underlying issue after her father’s interjection before she started another fight with her mother.

Women’s feelings were always so peculiar that even she, as a woman, failed to recognize the real problem from the mess.

“Mom, it’s true that Wen Tao’s father is not knowledgeable or cultured, but he is a very nice person. Look at their son and daughter—both of them have excelled far greater than your daughter has.” Xiao Yaojing’s compliments were not intentional but an indisputable fact. Both Wen Tao and Wen Shan were Ph.D holders. To have two Ph.D. scholars in one family was an achievement that not every family was capable of.

“Stop it, you don’t have to take their side. No matter what, no means no,” Mrs. Xiao huffed. She slammed the table before getting up and storming off into her room.

“Hey, mom, do you want to go out with me or not?” Xiao Yaojing shouted toward the direction where her mother was headed. Her reply was the loud slam of the room door.

Mr. Xiao patted his daughter’s hands and consoled, “Okay, that’s enough. Speak to Wen Tao and arrange things properly. Don’t screw it again this time.”

“Dad—” Xiao Yaojing blurted out in shock.

“You can trick your mom, but I see right through you,” Mr. Xiao coughed and said in a low voice, “Let’s eat. I like Wen Tao, and most importantly, he treats you well.”

Xiao Yaojing could finally calm her worrisome heart.

“Dad, can you please hush mom’s mouth when we meet?” Xiao Yaojing reminded her father, feeling uneasiness and anguish.

“That’s because your mom feels sorry for her old classmate. She has always said that Wen Tao’s mother was better than her academically and that she would have no problems being accepted into elite universities. Your mother is not angry because of some man that they fought for. Instead, she is angry because Wen Tao’s mother has ruined her own future. You know your mother, right?” Mr. Xiao suggested. He patted his daughter’s hand again, gesturing at her to eat.

Xiao Yaojing poked at her rice with her chopsticks and peeked at the closed room door. She figured that she had to tell Wen Tao about this later.

After breakfast, Xiao Yaojing locked herself in her room and called Wen Tao, spilling all the beans to him.

Wen Tao did not expect such a twist. From how it looked like, the problem was actually quite minor, as long as the two mothers were willing to sit down together and clear the air.

“What if we just let our mothers go and meet each other? I’m worried that my mom would say something nasty. I don’t want to upset your dad.” Xiao Yaojing thought about what her mother had said earlier. Despite knowing the real reason behind the harsh comments, she felt that it was unfair to Wen Tao’s father.
