How to Deal with a Jerk, Just Waiting for One More Audience

Xia Zhenfeng pointed at Xia Yiwei and shot Lin Yu a "see what I mean" look.

"See that?"

"Now do you know why I called you out to talk alone?"

"She lies as naturally as eating and drinking, without even blinking an eye!"

"Tell me, what could I possibly get out of you with her around?"

Lin Yu listened awkwardly from the sidelines.

He had to admire Weiwei's psychological fortitude!

During her answer just now, her expression and tone were so natural that it didn't seem made up at all.

If she didn't do this often, she absolutely wouldn't have reached such a masterful level.

You really couldn't blame Xia Zhenfeng for being on guard against her.

Having lived together for so many years, Xia Zhenfeng had probably experienced things like this way too many times.

Xia Yiwei scratched her cheek and looked up at Lin Yu.

It was as if she was trying to find the right answer in his eyes.

Since they had been talking for so long and she wasn't present, she naturally had no idea how Lin Yu had answered.

Lin Yu chimed in,

"Weiwei, I told Uncle Xia the truth."

"I think it's better to be honest. You don't need to cover for me anymore."

Lin Yu took the responsibility upon himself, so at least it didn't sound like Xia Yiwei was intentionally making a mistake.

Hearing this.

Xia Yiwei put on a knowing yet annoyed look and said to Xia Zhenfeng,

"Dad, you can't blame me for not being straightforward."

"Being a hacker isn't exactly a proper job, cooped up at home all day."

"If I had just come out and said it, I was worried you'd have a bad first impression of Lin Yu, right?"

Xia Zhenfeng: "..."

Lin Yu: "..."

Seeing the two grown men freeze once again.

Xia Yiwei scratched her cheek again, looked up at Lin Yu, and whispered like a mosquito,

"Is hacker wrong too? What on earth did you tell him?"

Even though Xia Yiwei was the one lying, her words made Lin Yu's cheeks burn.

He lowered his head and said quietly,

"Weiwei, really, stop making things up. I've already confessed to Uncle Xia that I'm still in school."

Xia Yiwei looked at her dad: "..."

Xia Zhenfeng let out a long sigh and waved his hand, saying,

"Alright, alright. Isn't a college student even better? What's there to hide!"

"Wouldn't it be nice for the child to have a father with a good educational background in the future?"

"You'd better fix this habit of lying!"

Xia Yiwei shuddered all over: "!!!"

Her eyes unconsciously drifted toward the window.

Despite her usually strong mindset, she didn't dare make eye contact with Lin Yu right now.

Although she had previously hinted at a similar idea to Lin Yu.

Lin Yu had only agreed verbally; they hadn't reached the point of informing the parents yet.

Her dad's mouth was just too fast!

She had only been gone for a little while, and both sides had already laid their cards on the table?

What Xia Yiwei was more worried about was Lin Yu's reaction...

Having dragged him onto this "ship" behind his back, wasn't there a possibility he might jump ship at any moment?

To her absolute surprise.

Before Xia Yiwei could feel anxious for too long.

Lin Yu actually patted her gently on the back and smiled sheepishly,

"Uncle Xia, I'm truly grateful that you aren't blaming me for being young and ignorant."

Xia Yiwei felt as if she had been enlightened; she instantly regained her energy!

Lin Yu's words held so much meaning!

Not only was he not angry at her for acting first and reporting later, but he was also being very cooperative.

Excited, Xia Yiwei linked her arm through Lin Yu's, deciding to quit while she was ahead and change the subject.

"Dad, stop making fun of us."

"How do you plan on dealing with Lei Siren?"

"Hmph! That bastard dared to gossip behind my back and call me a dirty rag!"

"Now, every time I see him, I want to rush up and punch him twice!"

Thank goodness Young Master Lei had attended today's dinner.

It allowed the "pregnancy incident" to be temporarily suppressed.

If they had kept talking about having a baby today, Lin Yu wouldn't have known how to walk out of the Xia family's door.

Maybe.

The wedding date would have been finalized right on the spot!

It had to be said.

A daughter truly knows her father best.

The subject was changed incredibly smoothly, directly shifting all of Xia Zhenfeng's attention to the matter regarding Lei Siren.

A serious expression reappeared on Xia Zhenfeng's face.

He furrowed his brows and said,

"Don't worry, sweetie. There will be a good show to watch in a bit."

"Today, not only am I going to teach that little bastard a lesson, but I'll also make sure he never dares to pester you again!"

"Someone else is coming over soon. You'll find out shortly!"
