Seeing Qin Mengyue so gentle was rare, and Xu Fan couldn't help feeling a bit dazed.

After a moment of distraction, he confidently took Qin Mengyue's hand and walked towards her home.

Qin Mengyue's parents had most likely been waiting early, and now Qin Mengyue knocked on the door a few times before seeing a middle-aged woman that resembled Xu Niang half-old opening the door widely.

"This... Yueyue..."

Aside from those boys, half-beaten by their daughter, who came with their parents to complain, this was the first time Qin Mengyue brought a boy home.

Looking at the hands the two of them held tightly together, Qin's mother opened her mouth wide in surprise almost enough to reach the back of her head.

"Yueyue, this... this is?"

It took a while for Qin's mother to calm the shock in her heart, and now she sized up Xu Fan and asked.

Xu Fan, however, was experienced, and with a slight smile, he took the initiative to answer.

"Auntie, hello, I am Yueyue's boyfriend."

"Boy! Boyfriend?"

Qin's mother exclaimed in surprise and quickly covered her mouth.

"Daughter, don't lie to mom."

Qin Mengyue was a piece of flesh that fell from her body, and Qin's mother knew Qin Mengyue better than anyone.

Most boys were indeed attracted by their daughter's appearance at first, but soon enough, they would be beaten down by her.

Was this young man a Daluo Golden Immortal, even taming such a wild and fierce girl?

"Are you two really?"

"Mom, you're so annoying..."

Qin's mother was still inquiring persistently, causing Qin Mengyue to blush slightly and chide.

Asking further seemed somewhat disrespectful to her own daughter, so Qin's mother now quieted down and after taking a good look at Xu Fan for a while, she muttered to herself.

"Strange, I can't see anything special..."

Having witnessed her daughter's numerous brushes with love, Qin's mother now looked and really didn't see Xu Fan as better than those she had introduced before.

Touching his nose, Xu Fan explained, "Auntie, I find it quite strange why Yueyue would like me too, after all, aside from being handsome, I have no other advantages."

"I think it might just be fate."

"Oh."

Qin's mother nodded, seemingly understanding yet astonished, and said dramatically, "Yueyue, so you like bold boys, huh, you should have told me earlier..."

"I would have obliged, but your father will be difficult to convince."

"Mom, he's not already here, is he?"

Hearing her mother's words, it seemed that the boy her mother introduced might have already arrived, and Qin Mengyue's eyebrows slightly furrowed.

With several years of experience with introductions, Qin Mengyue didn't need to think to know that her father had probably introduced another high official's son.

After all, he always cared about matching families.

"Xu Fan, later when my dad speaks, just ignore him."

The relationship between father and daughter had been strained over the years, otherwise, Qin Mengyue wouldn't have moved out to live with Zhou Keren.

Thinking about what might happen later, Qin Mengyue gave Xu Fan a heads up in advance.

"Okay, that's enough, let's go in."

Qin's mother said and then led Qin Mengyue and Xu Fan into the house.

Upon entering the house, they could faintly hear the sounds of two men conversing in the living room.

It was likely Qin Mengyue's father talking with Qin Mengyue's matchmade partner.

Faintly feeling Qin Mengyue's nervousness beside him, Xu Fan patted her back and smiled, "Don't worry, I've got this."

Having come here, he naturally had to perfectly accomplish the task for Qin Mengyue.

"You're back?"

Entering the living room, they immediately saw Qin Mengyue's father.

It seemed he wasn't too pleased with Qin Mengyue returning a bit late, a hint of displeasure showing on his square face.

"Didn't I tell you to come back earlier today?"

With a somewhat questioning tone, it was not hard to imagine how this father and daughter interacted on a daily basis.

Sensing Qin Mengyue was about to explode beside him, Xu Fan slightly smiled and held her hand.

"Uncle, sorry, we were delayed because I had some things to do."

After all, the man in front of him was Qin Mengyue's father, and Xu Fan didn't want to do anything else but bear the blame himself this time.

"Who are you? Who let you in?"

His father hadn't opened his mouth yet, and now that he did, he realized this stranger who came in with his wife, his face turned even more ashen.

"What are you doing?"

The atmosphere in the room instantly became a bit awkward, luckily Qin's mother stepped forward, making it slightly better.

"This is Yueyue's boyfriend."

"Boyfriend? Did I approve?"

At this, Qin's father became even more infuriated. He had already said he wanted to introduce her to a boyfriend today, and here she was, bringing a man home herself.

Could this be an intentional act to provoke him?

"Xiao He, don't misunderstand, this guy is mostly just a shield she picked randomly. Don't take it seriously."

Ignoring Xu Fan, Qin's father directly explained to a young man sitting next to him.

This attitude was indeed quite annoying.

In a moment, Xu Fan also somewhat understood why Qin Mengyue was like this.

She was completely forced into it by her eccentric father.

"Uncle…"

Thinking of persuading Qin's father to ease his relationship with Qin Mengyue, but this guy was now completely ignoring him.

It was as if he'd become air.

Xu Fan snorted coldly and said, "Heh, uncle, since you don't welcome me, then I'd better leave."

"Hmph, leave slowly, I won't see you out."

Qin's father didn't even look up, simply telling Xu Fan to get lost quickly.

"Eh, Xu Fan, you…"

His wife seemed still trying to keep him, when Qin's father glanced up, his face immediately turned dark.

"You stop right there!"

He couldn't care about entertaining He Shaofeng at his side any longer and called out to Xu Fan directly.

It wasn't that he realized his mistake, but rather that Xu Fan was about to leave—and he was still holding his daughter's hand!

If his daughter left, how could he arrange her and He Shaofeng together?

Considering that He Shaofeng's father was a senior official.

Over the years, since He Shaofeng returned from abroad, he had been developing in Shanghai under his father's shadow, leading a successful life.

How could he miss such a good son-in-law?

"Uncle, didn't you say you don't welcome me? So why? Why keep me here?"

Seeing Qin's father's face turned steel blue, staring at him, Xu Fan, holding Qin Mengyue's hand, turned his head back, quite amused.

"Who let you drag my daughter away?"

"Heh…"

Listening to Qin's father's questioning, Xu Fan laughed.

"Uncle, what do you mean by 'drag'?"

"Why don't you ask her if she wants to go with you or stay with me?"

Before Qin's father could ask, Qin Mengyue coldly glared at her father and then snorted, "Xu Fan, don't bother with this stubborn old man, let's go!"
