Chapter 154: Future Mother-in-Law's Assist

"Nuannuan, you're back?"

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Su Xia, who was sitting in the living room watching TV, asked loudly.

Beside her, Xia Zhengping, who was hugging his arms and sulking because his daughter had returned so late, also looked toward the entrance.

"Mm, I'm back."

Xia Nuannuan responded, changed her shoes, and walked quickly toward her room with her eyes lowered.

The couple looked at each other with puzzled expressions, as if they had instantly sensed something.

Su Xia's eyes brightened slightly, and her curiosity suddenly surged. Beside her, Old Xia frowned, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

Of course, this murderous intent was naturally aimed at that pig-headed boy.

"Nuannuan, come over, come over, talk to Mom."

Su Xia called out.

"Mom, I'm a bit tired and want to sleep. Let's talk about anything tomorrow!"

Xia Nuannuan spoke a bit fast, and she didn't even look over there when she spoke.

Now, the couple was even more convinced that something must have happened.

"Alright, then take a bath and go to sleep early. Mom won't wake you up tomorrow, sleep in."

Su Xia said with a beaming smile.

"Mm, thank you, Mom!"

Xia Nuannuan thanked her and walked into her room in a hurry.

After closing the door and locking it, Xia Nuannuan raised her hands to hold her slightly hot little face, and let out a long sigh of relief.

She walked to the bed in a daze, threw herself straight onto the soft bed, and kicked her feet back.

Afterward, she reached out her arm, grabbed a pillow to cover her head, and buried her little face in the quilt.

A moment later, in the room where the lights hadn't been turned on, the girl's somewhat strange laughter rang out.

At this moment, at the door outside the room, a couple had their ears pressed against the door. After hearing the laughter coming from inside, they looked at each other with shocked eyes.

Old Xia had a dark face and made a move to twist the doorknob, but was blocked by Su Xia, who was quick-eyed and fast-handed.

"What are you doing?"

"Going in to ask!"

"Ask what?"

The couple, who had been married for nearly twenty years, communicated silently and tacitly with their eyes.

Su Xia pointed toward the living room, then made a gesture of silence and two fingers walking, and finally glared at Old Xia with a warning look.

Old Xia understood completely and nodded reluctantly.

Therefore, the couple tiptoed, walked back to the living room, and sat down without a sound.

Su Xia first took the remote control, turned up the TV volume slightly, and then signaled to Old Xia that he could speak.

"Wife, this situation is not right. It must be that brat who did something. We have to ask clearly!"

Old Xia said with a serious face.

"What brat?"

Su Xia frowned, pointed toward her daughter's room, and said: "Didn't you hear that was laughter? She wasn't crying, so what's there to ask? And also, what brat? Which one is the brat?"

Old Xia had black lines hanging on his forehead and said in a deep voice: "Was that laughter? When has our daughter ever laughed like that? It's too strange!"

"What's strange about it? That's how a girl in love is. You old men don't understand anything!"

Su Xia rolled her eyes.

"In love?"

Old Xia was dumbfounded, and the whole person was stunned.

Su Xia grabbed a small handful of melon seeds from the coffee table, a look of "I've seen through everything" on her face, nodded slightly and said: "If I'm not mistaken, our daughter has confirmed her relationship with little Qin and started dating."

Old Xia covered his heart with his hand, feeling as if he had suddenly been stabbed.

"Old Xia, I'll tell you clearly first. Nuannuan has finished the college entrance exam and is an adult. It's perfectly normal to date. Don't you go making any trouble for me."

Su Xia ate two melon seeds and said seriously.

Old Xia was silent for a while, shook his head and said: "No, I still can't accept it. This is too fast. That pig... cough, cough, that kid is too impatient, right? Today is just the day the college entrance exam finished!"

"That's exactly why I appreciate little Qin. Since they like each other and the timing is right, a boy who is hesitant and not decisive or proactive makes people feel uncomfortable!"

"What timing is right? Wife, are you okay? What are you thinking?"

"Are you okay? Our daughter has grown up and should have her own life. What are you still managing? Why, do you want our daughter not to date in college, and then delay for two years after graduation, and become an older leftover woman?"

"Pfft, pfft, pfft, what older leftover woman, how could our daughter be!"

"How could she not be? Do you think a boy as excellent as little Qin is easy to find? In the community we lived in before, the daughter of Sister Chen downstairs is already thirty and hasn't dated. How do you think that happened?"

"Thirty and hasn't dated, really?"

Old Xia was stunned, half-believing.

"What's there to lie to you about?"

Su Xia rolled her eyes and continued: "It's all because Sister Chen managed too much, saying no dating during school, and letting her daughter read for a master's degree after college, and she was already twenty-six when she came out, and then she struggled for a few years at work, and had no mind to find a partner. Now it's good, it's hard to find someone even for blind dates. Every Spring Festival, when that girl comes back, the mother and daughter quarrel every few days because of this."

"It shouldn't be that bad, right?"

Old Xia scratched his head.

"How could it not be? You think that's how more and more older leftover women are caused? It's all because we parents are overcorrecting when our children date, plus the pressure of study and life for this generation is high, and many children drag it on and on, and their own psychology has problems, feeling that being single is also quite good, and then it's really troublesome."

"What you said makes sense, but... but I just feel uncomfortable. Our daughter was raised so big, and we couldn't wait to hold her in our palms every day, now..."

"Husband, I can understand you, but you have to listen to me on this matter. Little Qin is a good child. Even if you don't support it now, don't oppose it too much. Just let it be."

"Sigh, fine, listen to you, I'll try to keep it out of sight and out of mind!"

Qin Tian didn't know that his future mother-in-law had given him another perfect assist.

At this moment, he was excitedly checking the system page.

Just now, the system had popped up after a long time.

【Task time ended, task performance score 95, reward: four basic attribute values increased to 100 points, system points +5888!】

Originally, there were two tasks that hadn't been completed: one was to win the top scholar in the college entrance exam, and the other was the task of taking Xia Nuannuan to counterattack together before the end of the college entrance exam.

The good news that came now was naturally for this counterattack task.

The reward was extremely generous; all four basic attributes were directly increased to the limit value of humans, and the points were directly given a large sum.

Including the 1,000 points left before, he now had 6,888 points, which could be said to be rich overnight. ===== CHAPTER 155 =====
