The School Beauty from the Next Class Insisted I Confess - Chapter 66
Xu Ping and Xia An were born in the third year after Xu Qingfeng and Xia Yiqiu got married, using the latest technology to be completely genetically connected to both of them.
That year after graduation, Xia Yiqiu chose to return to her family company to take over. Her younger male cousin was eyeing the position, and she felt satisfied simply choosing the major she liked. Meanwhile, Xu Qingfeng chose to stay at Hua University to pursue her master’s degree.
Although the Xia Group’s business had expanded to the capital and even overseas, and Xia Yiqiu could frequently come to the capital to see Xu Qingfeng, a long-term long-distance relationship was not a solution.
Xu Qingfeng and Xia Yiqiu chose to get married before she started her master’s.
By the time she was about to graduate, Xia Yiqiu appeared at Xu Qingfeng’s graduation ceremony, holding two already-born little darlings.
Xu Qingfeng, who was having her academic cap tassel moved, looked at her wife and children not far away.
As soon as the ceremony ended, she immediately rushed down, picked up a baby from the stroller with each hand.
“Ping An, did you miss Mommy?”
The two babies were only a few months old and couldn’t speak at all.
She didn’t expect them to answer, so she put them back and directly asked the gentle person standing beside her.
“Wife, did you miss me?” Xu Qingfeng kissed Xia Yiqiu directly on the lips.
“What do you think?” Xia Yiqiu’s eyes were burning.
“I think we should never be separated again, okay? Our family should be together.”
Xu Qingfeng declined her advisor’s enthusiastic invitation to pursue a doctorate.
These three years, she had truly had enough.
Their relationship was acknowledged by Old Xu and the others during the winter break of their freshman year.
The process was not difficult. Ultimately, this had to be credited to Gao Zhi.
Gao Zhi’s extraordinary college entrance examination results greatly pleased her father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Gao, but they also noticed a clue: why had the child changed so much?
With the feeling that their child had finally matured, they went to ask, and the slip-of-the-tongue from Gao Zhi under questioning was the answer.
She admitted that there was a girl she liked.
But they were not together, and the reason she had worked so hard was to reunite with her at Hua University.
Since the child voluntarily informed them of the reason, they had no reason to get angry on the spot.
For a time, Mr. and Mrs. Gao were both happy and worried. That night, Mr. Gao rarely invited his old comrade-in-arms, Xu Zhenzhong, for a drink. You know, when they were young, they drank a lot for their careers, but now that they were successful, Mr. Gao hadn’t had a proper drink for a long time for the sake of his health, at most having a small, enjoyable one.
Mrs. Gao also dragged her busy old best friend, whom she rarely saw, to pour out the dilemma in her heart.
“Old Xu, you say, it’s a good thing my daughter is motivated, but how… how did she come to like a girl?” Mr. Gao slapped his thigh with a large hand.
Then, a slightly drunk Mr. Gao tightly wrapped his arms around Father Xu’s neck, exactly like how Gao Zhi behaved toward Xu Qingfeng when she was sad.
It was truly a case of like father, like daughter.
“Old Gao, don’t embarrass yourself, be proper.” Mrs. Gao quickly scolded him when she saw this.
“No, I won’t be able to hold a grandchild or granddaughter in my life, Old Gao.”
Mr. Gao’s ideal retirement was to enjoy the company of his grandchildren. Once he lost the goal he had been striving for, he naturally felt sad.
When a matter hasn’t happened to oneself, the first thought is to enjoy the drama, but since the other party was his long-time friend, Xu Zhenzhong couldn’t bring himself to mock him; he felt a little heartache.
“You two shouldn’t be too sad. Technology is very advanced now. Girls can also have children together. If the children truly love each other, we can’t make a scene and insist on being the bad guys, can we?”
Xu Zhenzhong recounted the news he had seen a while ago. He just wanted to offer some comfort, but in reality, he didn’t take it seriously himself.
“Old Xu, you don’t understand. A child like Qingfeng is always obedient; how could this happen?”
Mr. Gao looked at Xu Zhenzhong with envy.
My Qingfeng…
Xu Zhenzhong and Ms. Yan Chunhua thought of the “excellent young Xia” who had stayed at their house a few days ago to avoid reporters.
The extremely beautiful child whom his daughter clung to all the time—Xia Yiqiu.
Xu Zhenzhong exchanged a knowing look with Ms. Yan Chunhua, who also sensed something was wrong and looked at him.
Could it be that his little Xu?
Now Old Xu couldn’t remain calm either.
His Old Xu family only had this one heir!
What he had just said was only to comfort Old Gao, but now the two brothers hugged each other, and the two old best friends also mourned in silence.
“Old Xu, actually, I’ve thought it through. The child is grown up, let her be. Is what you just said about being able to have children true?” Mr. Gao’s point of concern was different.
I don’t know either!
Why don’t you comfort me? Xu Zhenzhong felt extremely distressed.
On the way home, Ms. Yan repeatedly instructed Xu Zhenzhong not to act impulsively and to talk to the child in a calm tone.
Late that night, Old Xu earnestly warned Xu Qingfeng.
“If you have anything you want to say, just say it. Although I don’t approve, I’m not that kind of stubborn old man.”
? What’s the matter?
Could it be that Old Xu guessed that she wanted to go traveling with Yiqiu in a few days?
“You’re talking about this? I definitely had the idea early on. I originally planned to tell you before telling Yiqiu.”
After greeting Old Xu, she planned to use the money she had saved over the years to go on a graduation trip with Yiqiu. Xu Qingfeng not only liked writing essays but also submitting them to newspapers. She had saved quite a bit of manuscript fees over the years, as she didn’t like to spend money.
Little did she know, Old Xu had misunderstood.
“You’re even proactively telling me? That’s quite thoughtful. Forget it, I don’t want to hear it. Do whatever you want to do, just don’t tell me.”
Old Xu still wasn’t prepared.
His precious, lovely daughter was going to ‘steal’ another family’s little white cabbage.
Actually, stealing another family’s… seemed acceptable.
Old Xu felt a little better, and the reason he was so convinced that his little Xu was the one ‘stealing’ was because:
It had to be his little Xu ‘stealing’ another family’s; any other way, Xu Zhenzhong could not accept, nor would he even entertain the thought.
In any case, Xu Qingfeng, completely unaware that Old Xu and the others had seen through everything, was puzzled by Old Xu’s words as she took her new girlfriend’s hand and went traveling.
And Old Xu, watching little Xu leave for school, was slowly hypnotizing himself.
In the days that little Xu was away at school.
Every time Xu Qingfeng answered Old Xu’s call, she would inevitably hear a sentence.
“Is there really nothing you want to say?” Old Xu regretted it. He still wanted to hear the child express her thoughts herself. His little Xu only mentioned it once and then remained silent.
Could it be that his rejection was too obvious, and his daughter no longer wanted to open up to him?
That won’t do.
During this time, Xu Zhenzhong considered it carefully and decided that his daughter being with classmate Xia was actually quite good.
That girl was no worse than his own daughter; Xu Qingfeng wouldn’t lose out.
As for Ms. Yan, she already liked Xia Yiqiu, and after a few days of internal struggle, she had already accepted it. She was still the open-minded Ms. Yan.
Xu Qingfeng was truly helpless; she really had nothing to say.
“Why don’t you first tell me clearly what you want to hear?”
“That won’t do. You clearly said you would voluntarily tell me back then.” Old Xu had his stubbornness.
After pushing and pulling for many days, during the Spring Festival, Old Xu finally couldn’t hold back anymore.
He called out to Xu Qingfeng, who was about to go out to watch the fireworks with Xia Yiqiu. Old Xu’s face was grim as he stubbornly spoke.
“So, you really don’t want to bring your little girlfriend home to celebrate the New Year?”
Xu Qingfeng, who was planning to watch the year’s most beautiful fireworks with her beloved, recalling all the moments they had shared along the way.
Was stunned by Old Xu’s words.
“What did you say?” Xu Qingfeng was very unsure.
Did Old Xu say something nonsensical?
His beard was almost bristling with anger, but Old Xu patiently repeated:
“Xia Yiqiu, your little girlfriend. It’s been so long, aren’t you going to bring her home for a proper introduction?”
!!! How did Old Xu know?
Xu Qingfeng tentatively asked, “You guys aren’t against it?”
“Do I look that old-fashioned? I’m much more open-minded than your Uncle Gao. There’s nothing unusual about a daughter liking a girl.”
Xu Zhenzhong said words of praise for himself without feeling guilty.
“Then how did you know?”
“You admitted it yourself that day,” Old Xu said.
“Which day?” Xu Qingfeng was still confused.
Regardless, at the beginning of the New Year, Old Xu and Ms. Yan were finally satisfied to see Xia Yiqiu come to their door, in the capacity of Xu Qingfeng’s girlfriend.
One might say Old Xu was a stickler for tradition. For others, dating was just dating, a matter for the young people.
But Old Xu insisted that both sets of parents meet to discuss the future of the two children.
Father and Mother Xia accepted it quickly and immediately returned to the country. They had traveled extensively over the years, and their openness was three times that of Ms. Yan compared to Old Xu. Everything was premised on respecting the children, after all.
The meeting went very happily between the two sets of parents.
The stubborn Old Xu took the money he had earned from investments with Mr. Gao over the years and, together with Mr. and Mrs. Xia, co-purchased an apartment not far from Hua University for the young couple to live in.
It was renovated in their sophomore year, and the two formally began their cohabitation.
