Chapter 59
Xia Nuannuan's living room.
The family of three was sitting at the dining table, eating dinner quietly.
Xia Nuannuan and her mother Su Xia sat on one side, and Xia Zhengping sat opposite them.
The atmosphere was slightly silent.
The couple knew their daughter too well and could easily detect that she had entered the house with a low pressure.
Su Xia also tentatively asked if something happened at school, but Xia Nuannuan denied it.
Xia Zhengping guessed that what he did might have been exposed, and looking at his daughter who was clearly angry, he felt guilty and sour at the same time.
His family's fresh cabbage was actually angry with him for a pig-headed boy from who knows where.
No way, who let her be the apple of his eye!
He could only coax her!
"Nuannuan, you must be hungry after studying all day, come, come, eat more."
Xia Zhengping smiled and picked up a beef ball, stretching his arm toward his daughter's bowl.
However, Xia Nuannuan picked up her bowl and avoided it directly.
She glanced at her father with a flat expression and said with a meaningful tone: "No need, you eat it yourself, I don't dare to eat it, who knows if there's anything strange in it again."
Xia Zhengping stiffened, and the chopsticks holding the beef ball also stopped in the air.
Sure enough, she knew!
That damn pig-headed boy actually complained to his daughter?
In his view, after he warned him with this small means, that pig-headed boy should have honestly eaten this muffled loss and learned a lesson.
How could that kid have the nerve!
However, he didn't know that the pig-headed boy was Xia Nuannuan's deskmate, and Xia Nuannuan was watching from the side when he ate the shrimp balls he carefully prepared.
"What strange things, how could there be, this was made by your mom with pure beef, it's very delicious, look."
Xia Zhengping stuffed the beef ball into his mouth, chewing loudly, pretending to have an expression of knowing nothing.
"Hehe, then you eat more."
Xia Nuannuan said with a smile.
On the side, Su Xia's suspicious gaze wandered between the father and daughter, and she soon realized something.
"Nuannuan, what's wrong, explain it to Mom!"
She asked.
Xia Nuannuan looked at her mother with watery big eyes, and her tone became a bit aggrieved:
"Mom, the shrimp balls I brought to school at noon, some of them were kneaded by Dad, right? He stuffed things into them."
"Ah?"
Su Xia looked at her husband opposite with a look of astonishment.
Xia Zhengping's old face turned red, and he avoided her gaze.
"What did he stuff?"
Su Xia looked at her daughter again and asked.
"Sichuan peppercorn, and I don't know what else, maybe wasabi or chili."
Xia Nuannuan answered with a serious expression.
Su Xia's mouth twitched fiercely, and she glared at her husband with a dark face.
This action was really fast enough, and he could even think of such a strange trick.
"I, I was afraid the shrimp balls were too light and had no taste, so I accidentally added too much."
Xia Zhengping picked up his bowl and shoveled rice into his mouth, talking nonsense vaguely.
"Wasabi and chili can be explained, what about Sichuan peppercorn? Have you ever seen anyone stuff Sichuan peppercorn into shrimp balls?"
Xia Nuannuan questioned angrily.
"Cough cough..."
Xia Zhengping was choked severely, hurriedly picked up a glass of juice next to him, drank it, and swallowed the food in his mouth.
"Old Xia, I have to stand on my daughter's side on this matter, your trick is too much."
Su Xia revealed an expression of disdain, and said hatefully: "And you wasted my food, what else are you eating, don't eat."
After saying that, she reached out and snatched the chopsticks from his hand.
"That's right, that's right, don't give him any food."
Xia Nuannuan immediately echoed, glaring at Old Xia with a gloating gaze.
Xia Zhengping had black lines hanging down his forehead, put down the glass, and said seriously: "Since we've talked about this, let's lay our cards on the table, Nuannuan, wife, do you have anything to tell me?"
As soon as this was said, it immediately reversed, and it was Su Xia and Xia Nuannuan's turn to feel guilty.
"What do you mean?"
Su Xia was an old actor after all, so she wasn't shocked.
Xia Nuannuan was completely at the level of a supporting role, panicking and picking up her bowl to eat without saying a word, from expression to action, she showed the word "panic".
"It's already this situation, and you're still helping her hide it?"
Old Xia narrowed his eyes slightly, and blamed with an unhappy expression: "Wife, you did this very wrongly, I'm very unhappy, who of you will tell me, what's the situation with that kid."
At this moment, Old Xia seemed to have found his family status.
He crossed his arms, raised his chubby chin slightly, and exuded the aura of the head of the family, examining his wife and daughter opposite with a severe gaze.
Su Xia was speechless for a moment, and turned her head to look at her daughter with a questioning gaze.
It had come to this, and she knew she couldn't hide it anymore.
Xia Nuannuan also felt the same, and asked her mother for help with a panicked look.
"Cough cough."
Su Xia cleared her throat, put down her chopsticks, and wiped her mouth with a napkin with elegant movements.
"That's right, I have indeed met that boy, and I have also passed the test, he is a very good young man, and it is harmless for Nuannuan to get close to him, so I didn't oppose it, and I support them to associate normally as good friends for the time being."
The calm and gentle voice seemed to instantly suppress Old Xia's aura.
The nervous and uneasy mood in Xia Nuannuan's heart faded away for the most part, and her eyes looking at her mother were full of worship and gratitude.
"Harmless? I don't agree with this, there are still two months until the College Entrance Examination, shouldn't we let Nuannuan focus all her attention on her studies?"
Xia Zhengping frowned slightly and said.
"You've seen the results of this mock exam, didn't you see that Nuannuan has made such great progress?"
Su Xia asked back.
When Xia Nuannuan heard this, her eyes lit up instantly, and she looked at Old Xia with a proud and confident expression.
Xia Zhengping pondered for a moment looking at his daughter, and nodded slowly: "Indeed, this matter must be praised, but precisely because of this, it is necessary to work harder to maintain it, and temporarily do not consider other things unrelated to study."
"What is unrelated to study? Old Xia, do you know why Nuannuan made such great progress this time?"
Su Xia revealed a playful smile on the corner of her mouth.
Xia Nuannuan on the side heard this, and her eyes lit up even more.
"Mm?"
Xia Zhengping showed a look of doubt and asked: "What do you mean?"
"Nuannuan, you tell him!"
Su Xia looked at her daughter with a smile.
The paving had been completed, and the rest was left to this girl herself.
Old Xia's gaze fell on his daughter again, his eyebrows furrowed tighter, and he suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
Xia Nuannuan smiled sweetly, and a pair of shallow dimples appeared on her beautiful and cute face.
"I was able to make such great progress in this exam, all thanks to Qin Tian's help, he was the first in our grade this time, and he scored 745 points, three subjects with perfect scores, only Chinese was deducted five points."
"Oh, right, he is also my deskmate, and has been helping me tutor my homework recently."
As the soft voice fell, the living room fell into silence again.
Xia Zhengping widened his eyes slightly, speechless for a long time. *** **CHAPTER 60** **【60-0】 It Still Depends on the Face**
