Chapter 1035 You beast, I'll kill you!
"Oh dear, why didn't you bring her up? Leaving a young lady waiting outside!" Xia's mother said excitedly. "Go quickly, go quickly, call her up!"

Seeing his parents' expressions, Xia Shou felt even more pressure.

But thinking that a short, sharp pain is worse than a long, drawn-out one, Xia Shou still said, "Not outside."

He originally wanted to say "either outside or inside," but he didn't dare to say the second half of the sentence out loud. This only prolonged his torment, just like how being soft-hearted led to only cutting off half of someone's head at the market.

Then, Xia's parents, who were sitting opposite him, were stunned. Xia Liang, who was playing on his phone, stopped looking at his phone and looked up at Xia Shou and Shangguan Yan.

"Hey, how about we go see a movie together today? I heard there's a really good one." Xia Liang started stirring things up, his eyes darting between Shangguan Yan and Xia Shou.

But obviously, this clumsy attempt to lure the tiger away from the mountain would not work. Before Xia's mother could figure out the meaning behind Xia Shou's words, Xia's father's smile had already disappeared.

He glanced at Xia Shou, then at Shangguan Yan, before grabbing the still-warm tea from the coffee table and splashing it onto Xia Shou's face, turning his entire face bright red.

"Hey, what are you doing?!" Xia's mother quickly pulled her husband away.

Xia's father pointed his finger at Xia Shou's nose and roared, "What happened! Tell me! What happened?!"

Xia Liang panicked, and Xia's mother seemed to understand something as well. She looked at Xia Shou with extreme shock and surprise, and then glanced at Shangguan Yan cautiously.

Shangguan Yan, who was always smiling, sat there quietly with a serious expression on his face.

Xia Shou took a deep breath, as if to say, "I'm with Sister Yan now!"

These words were like the final fuse igniting an explosive device. Xia's father suddenly erupted: "How could I, Xia Anming, have given birth to such a rebellious son?! How could you, a damn family member, do such a thing?! I... I'll kill you!!!"

"Dad! Dad, calm down!" Xia Liang rushed over and held his father down.

Xia Anming, however, seemed to possess immense strength, throwing Xia Liang aside and grabbing the teapot from the coffee table, which he then threw at Xia Shou's head. Shangguan Yan stood up and caught Xia Shou's head, but the teapot hit her shoulder, splashing tea all over her.

Xia Anming was stunned for a moment when he saw this, then roared, "Xiao Yan, get out of the way! I, I'll beat this kid to death!"

Although Xia Shou has only said one sentence so far, Xia Anming has already filled in the whole story in his mind. He knows these two children too well, and now that things have developed to this point, it is obvious whose fault it is.

He could figure it out with a grain of salt; it was his son who was driven by lust and had his eye on his older sister. Xiao Yan had always doted on Xia Shou since he was little, after all, she had saved him from the jaws of dogs twice. Plus, women are easily swayed by persistent suitors, and she gave in to Xia Shou's nagging and pestering.

After sorting things out in his mind, Xia Anming immediately understood everything, and all the things he couldn't figure out before became clear.

No wonder Xiao Yan has failed so many blind dates and has no interest in dating at all. It turns out the root of the problem is that brat Xia Shou!

Who the hell would have thought that their own cabbage would be eaten by their own pig!

Xia's mother, who was standing nearby, quickly realized what was happening and immediately pulled her husband, saying, "Old Xia! Old Xia, why are you so angry? The two kids are doing just fine, aren't they?"

"What do you know! You only think about him, but don't you think about what Xiao Yan's parents think! They raise their daughters to give to your son..." Xia Anming didn't finish his sentence, but instead glared fiercely at Xia Shou.

If he only thought about his own family, and the two children were in love, he, as a parent, would wholeheartedly approve.

But this isn't just their family's business; how are they going to explain it to Shangguan Yan's parents?
What will people think about this?
Xia Shou is their son, and they can certainly vouch for him as a good kid, but after all, he is their own son, not someone else's.

Shangguan Yan's father is also a man. How would he guess what Xia Shou is thinking?

Eight years, an eight-year age difference!

How did this happen?

Xia Shou had just graduated from university when Xiao Yan was already thirty years old. When Xia Shou turned twenty-five, Shangguan Yan would be thirty-three.

Xia Shou is 28 years old and in his prime, while Xiao Yan is already an older mother. Reality isn't a TV drama where true love can overcome all difficulties; reality is harsh. Besides, we also have to consider Shangguan Yan's parents.

The father-in-law is a man too; how could he not know what a man is thinking?
At that time, Shangguan's father will definitely think that it was this little brat from the Xia family who took advantage of his daughter's youth and beauty, treating her so well, and thus the little head controlled the big head!

Even Xia Anming himself had this idea.

Although he wanted to trust his son's character, he had seen and heard so many things in the world after so many years of struggling in society.
Things are fine now, but when the two children get older, Xia Shou will be thirty and Shangguan will be thirty-eight, their skin will be aging and their appearance will be gone. Only heaven knows what Xia Shou will think then.

Are there few cheating men in the world? Every man is a son of his parents. Just because he is your son doesn't mean you can't cheat. That's blind confidence!
Thinking about it this way, Xia Anming felt even more sorry for Shangguan Yan's parents.

Xia Anming glared at Xia Shou, growing angrier the more he thought about it.

How is he going to explain this to Brother Shangguan?

Could it be that you say: "Oh dear in-laws, I'm so sorry, your daughter saved my son's life twice when she was little, and as a result, my son stole your daughter. Although our child is eight years younger than your daughter, doesn't know how to make money, and has no skills, at least Xiao Yan watched him grow up. Please take him in."

Damn it, how could anyone say that? Even just thinking about it makes me so ashamed I want to hang myself!

Xia Anming grew increasingly angry, his eyes bulging so hard they seemed about to bleed.

Xia Anming's chest heaved, and he gripped the small teacup in his hand so tightly it almost cracked.

In just a few seconds, Xia Anming had already thought through everything that would happen in the next ten years. He imagined the chaos and turmoil of the future, Xia Shou's future disdain for Shangguan Yan's aging appearance, and all sorts of beastly things that this bastard would do in the future. He wished he could go to the kitchen, grab a cleaver, and chop him up alive!
"Dad! Calm down, calm down!"

Xia Liang clung to Xia Anming's leg, grabbed his father's hands with both of his, and desperately tried to signal to Xia Shou to run away.

But when Xia Anming saw Shangguan Yan holding Xia Shou tightly and protecting him, he was so angry that he almost fainted. He felt a pang of sympathy and grievance and said: What a good girl she is! Even at this time, she is still protecting this little brat. How could he treat her like this!
"Dad, calm down," Shangguan Yan called out.

Shangguan Yan's shout was like throwing a fire extinguisher into a fire. Xia Anming stood there with his mouth open, but he didn't utter a sound. The curse that was about to come out of his throat was forcibly swallowed back down.

Xia's mother, who was standing helplessly to the side, also realized that this was not a simple happy event, and her expression became bitter and flustered.

"Well...we have to think of a way, Lao Xia. It's not good for you to just get angry," Xia's mother said softly.

Xia Shou nestled in Shangguan Yan's arms, his mind racing with a thousand "Holy crap!" thoughts.

Although he knew he looked cowardly, he wasn't really afraid; he just felt it was the quickest way to calm things down.

He could certainly break free from Yan Jie's embrace now and shout like a man, "I'll take responsibility for my actions! I'm going to marry Yan Jie! Come at me for whatever you want!"

He has the courage to do it, but the consequences could be terrible, maybe... judging from his dad's attitude, he might really cripple him.

My dad's eyes looked so unfamiliar. This was the scariest thing I'd ever seen in my life. Xia Shou felt like his dad was staring at his legs.

Xia Shou's consideration was not a misconception. Xia Anming was indeed looking at Xia Shou's leg. He felt that if he broke this unfilial son's leg now, he wouldn't misbehave after they got married.

If it weren't for the consideration of not wanting Xiao Yan to become disabled, he would have kicked him right away.

Xia Liang quickly stepped between the two sides: "Dad, calm down, let's sit down and talk it over. Things have come to this."

"Get the hell out of my way! I'm disciplining your brother, what business is it of yours!"

Xia Anming shoved his second son aside, walked up to Shangguan Yan and Xia Shou, pressed his finger against Xia Shou's nose, nodded repeatedly, and threatened with a furious laugh: "Fine, fine... You'd better sort this out for me today, or you won't be leaving this house standing up."
