Chapter 684: A Gentleman
Xiang Huai was about to kiss her, but he suddenly stopped!
The face that was about to touch the little kid’s lips lifted instantly. Moreover, he reacted quickly and reached out to take the drink from Xue Xi’s bedside table. He then calmly turned around and returned to his seat before explaining, “I was taking something.”
Taking something?
Xue Sheng did not believe it!
He then looked at his daughter and saw that her eyes were blank and her face was calm. She did not look like she had just been intimate or was planning to be intimate.
Huh?
Did I really wrong Xiao Xiang?
Just as he was letting his imagination run wild, Xue Xi said, “Dad, why are you here?”
Xue Sheng said, “Oh, I’m also here to watch a movie. Since we all met coincidentally, let’s watch together.”
After saying that, he walked to Xue Xi’s side and sat down on her huge sofa.
Xiang Huai: “?”
Xue Xi: “?”
In order for people to get comfy in the private room, the leather sofa here was very big. It was not a problem for the three of them to sit together.
Xue Sheng even turned to look at Xiang Huai and Xue Xi. “Do what you have to do. Just pretend that I don’t exist.”
Xiang Huai: “…”
No one in the private room spoke again. The atmosphere was a little strange.
The three of them had no idea what this movie was about.
The movie finally ended and the three of them left. On the way, Xue Sheng deliberately probed Xiang Huai. “What did you think of the movie?”
Xiang Huai: “?”
Did he not think highly of it?
However, his father-in-law was definitely testing him by looking at him like this. If he did not answer him seriously, it would mean that he’d had ulterior motives.
Hence, Xiang Huai coughed and said tentatively, “The movie was very sweet in the early stages. It’s a torture in the middle…”
He had watched those parts before. As for the end…
“However, the ending wasn’t too good.”
He looked at Xue Sheng tentatively and lied without blushing. “Sigh, why didn’t they end up together? Then again, in life, there will always be many things one will regret. Father-in-law, what do you think?”
Not together?
Xue Sheng was stunned. He did not watch the movie and was focused on the two of them. However, he would occasionally take a few glances and vaguely remembered, didn’t the female lead go to the cemetery?
Hence, he coughed and cooperated. “How could the male lead die?”
So the male protagonist died?
Xiang Huai sighed. “It’s a real pity. The two of them actually ended in tragedy. Sigh! I almost cried…”
Ha, are you trying to show off how good you are with emotions?
Xue Sheng also started to showcase his acting skills. “That’s right. When I saw what happened later, I felt a mix of emotions. If we weren’t in a movie theater, I would definitely have cried!”
“Father-in-law, I have the same opinion as you!”
Xiang Huai and Xue Sheng flanked Xue Xi in the middle. The two of them pieced together the storyline and discussed it fervently.
The audience behind them: “?”
Someone was confused. “In the end, didn’t the male and female leads get together? The female lead even went to the cemetery to visit her mother and told her mother who had passed away that she now had a family.”
“So, were we watching the same movie as them?”
…
After the crowd dispersed, Xiang Huai, Xue Xi, and Xue Sheng stood at the entrance of the theater and looked at each other.
After this, Xiang Huai had arranged many things to be with the little kid, but why was his father-in-law staring at them?
After discussing the movie with Xiang Huai, Xue Sheng realized that Xiang Huai might really be only watching a movie. He was not trying to use the movie to take advantage of his daughter.
So this person was really a gentleman.
In that case, he should listen to Ye Li and not meddle in the children’s matters. As long as they knew their limits and did not create children while still in university, he would turn a blind eye.
Hence, Xue Sheng was relieved. He coughed and said, “I still have something on. Go have lunch!”
After saying that, he said to Xue Xi, “Return early tonight. Don’t be too late.”
“Okay.”
She still had to go to the special department to work tomorrow. She would definitely not go home too late.
Xue Sheng patted Xiang Huai’s shoulder again and said with implications, “Dating is mostly about conversations, not actions. Understand?”
Xiang Huai: “…”
Seeing Xiao Xiang’s sincere nod and innocent expression, Xue Sheng felt that he had gone overboard.
Hence, he reflected and took a step back. “Alright, you guys can leave first.”
After the two of them left, Xue Sheng was just about to go home when he suddenly realized that he had forgotten his phone in the private room.
He shook his head and returned to the private room.
The movie rooms here were very expensive and suitable for doing unsuitable things. However, cleaning would take time after the event. After all, they had to disinfect the sofa and replace the small blanket.
Hence, when Xue Sheng returned to the private room, the service staff had yet to arrive.
After entering, he started looking for his phone and casually opened the drawer. Then, he was stunned.
The drawer… What the hell?!
F*ck!
He was cheated by that f*cking Xiao Xiang!
