Lei Siren couldn't help but look at Lin Yu and Xia Yiwei.
He wanted to judge from their reactions whether Xia Zhenfeng knew about this matter.
Lin Yu spread his hands, looking completely clueless.
He really wasn't lying.
He genuinely knew nothing.
All he knew was that Nurse Sister must have said something to Boss Xia.
As for what exactly she said, that was beyond his concern.
For all he knew, Boss Xia might already know the whole truth!
Otherwise, having known Lei Siren for so long, he didn't seem like the type to easily give someone the cold shoulder.
The focus of the room was not on the conversation between Lei Siren and Xia Zhenfeng.
Soon, Xia Zhenfeng turned his head back and said to Lin Yu in front of everyone,
"Kid, come with me. I have something to say to you in private."
Xia Zhenfeng's expression was extremely serious.
It formed a sharp contrast with his colorful and flashy outfit.
Lin Yu's heart couldn't help but sink.
Talk to him in private? Didn't that mean no one else could be around?
Lin Yu glanced sideways at Xia Yiwei...
They had agreed that he would speak less, and when Boss Xia arrived, Xia Yiwei would cover for him.
How could she cover for him during a private chat?
Moreover, he didn't even know if they actually believed this "future son-in-law" identity.
What if the veteran Boss Xia saw through the act at a glance? Would Lin Yu have to force himself to keep playing along?
It would very likely backfire!
Not only would it fail to bring any help to Nurse Sister, but it would also offend her old man.
Not to mention Lin Yu's uneasiness.
Hearing her dad say this, Xia Yiwei also panicked a little.
She quickly hooked her arm around Lin Yu's and said to Boss Xia in a coquettish tone,
"Dad, what are you trying to do!"
"Don't make things difficult for Lin Yu, it's his first time here."
"Is there anything you can't say in front of me?"
"Don't even think about calling him over just to scare him, I'm going with you!"
Lin Yu observed Xia Zhenfeng's reaction.
Just from his expression alone, he knew that Nurse Sister had made the wrong bet this time.
Xia Zhenfeng continued speaking in a stern tone,
"Stay here and behave, this has nothing to do with you."
"I'm not going to eat him, I just have some questions for him."
"A man who doesn't even have the courage to have a private chat?"
"Then who gave him the courage to enter our house!"
Xia Yiwei: "!!!"
Lin Yu: "..."
His tough attitude really left everyone baffled.
Even Lin Yu began to suspect whether Xia Zhenfeng had heard something from Weiwei and formed a preconceived prejudice against him.
If he didn't agree readily right now, wouldn't he immediately cease to be a man in his eyes?
Lin Yu quickly patted Xia Yiwei's hand and said, feigning calmness,
"Weiwei, let me have a private chat with Uncle Xia."
"Since it's our first time meeting, Uncle Xia definitely won't make things difficult for me."
"I'm guessing he must have something specific he wants to talk to me about."
At the very least, in front of everyone, he had to paint Xia Zhenfeng's image as grand and righteous first.
Later, if he really had any malicious intentions, he would at least have to think twice in his heart.
Judging from the system's current feedback.
It didn't treat Xia Zhenfeng as an evil demon, so at the very least, there wouldn't be too much hostility.
It was highly likely just the natural displeasure of a future father-in-law seeing his new son-in-law.
...
Lin Yu followed Xia Zhenfeng across the hall toward the corridor on the left.
Wang Ran, who hadn't appeared just now, was already waiting in the corridor ahead of time.
This didn't seem like a coincidence!
Could it be that Wang Ran already knew Xia Zhenfeng would seek Lin Yu out for a private talk?
It would be hard to discuss this kind of thing in advance, right?
Most likely, Wang Ran understood Xia Zhenfeng too well and had predicted his actions in advance.
If that was the case.
Lin Yu had truly underestimated Wang Ran's level of shrewdness.
Women who mature early are really quite terrifying!
Her meticulous mind was absolutely beyond what Nurse Sister could compare to.
"You're back really early today. I thought you wouldn't return until lunch."
"Did things go smoothly? Did they arrange any after-drinking activities for you?"
Wang Ran stood where she was, speaking to Xia Zhenfeng with a bellyful of grievances.
She didn't take the initiative to approach Xia Zhenfeng, but instead waited for him to walk over himself.
Lin Yu's eyes twitched: "!!!"
His judgment had failed him once again.
The dependent relationship between Wang Ran and Xia Zhenfeng might not be as simple as he thought.
If she were just a spoiled stepmother relying on his favor.
Would she dare to act like this in front of outsiders?
At the very least, she should provide the man she depended on with enough face and emotional value to secure her own position!
Not to mention.
Lin Yu was a guest visiting the house for the very first time.
