“Dad!”

Xia Nuannuan called him and bit her lip. “Dad, Mom, why did you do a silly thing like that?”

When Dad Xia and Mom Xia saw her in such a state, they took a glance in the direction of her bedroom. Being sure that Shen Zihao was still asleep, they grabbed her hand and pulled her into their bedroom.

Xia Nuannuan looked at the both of them.

Dad and Mom were only in their fifties. But whereas Aunt Xia looked young and pretty and Mei Feng looked like she was in her thirties, Dad and Mom looked old and quite frail.

She should have known back then that their family didn’t have much money. How could Dad and Mom just give away 1.11 million?

She could imagine that the 1.11 million had depleted them of all their savings.

With their house sold off, where were they going to live?

Xia Nuannuan stood up and said. “Dad, Mom, to whom did you sell the house? Let’s return the money, let’s not sell the house.”

She used the back of her hand to dry her tears, but they just kept flowing and would not stop.

Dad Xia sighed and said, “Silly girl, the money has been paid. How can we decide not to sell just like that?”

Immediately, Xia Nuannuan sobbed spasmodically and said, “I’ll go back to Beijing now and get the check back from Aunty Mei. I’ll return you the money from the sale of the house! Please buy the house back!”

Mom Xia heard the main point of the message at once and asked, “Are you saying that the check is still with Zihao’s stepmother?”

Xia Nuannuan choked back her tears. After a moment, she nodded and said, “She said she was safekeeping it for us, in case we spent it frivolously.”

Mom Xia frowned and said, “That’s too much!”

Xia Nuannuan looked at them and said, “Dad, Mom, why did you do such a silly thing? Why did you sell the house?!”

Dad Xia sighed and replied, “You are not marrying into a normal family. This is a wealthy family. You didn’t know when you were getting married, but your mom and I heard people talking about you.”

Xia Nuannuan stood up straight and said, “What’s there to talk about? I have a clear conscience! What’s there to say about me? I’m not afraid of being talked about. Dad, Mom, we are only accountable to ourselves, not others. Is ego more important, or survival more important? You’ve sold your house now, where are you going to live?”

Dad Xia was taken aback by his daughter’s imposing comments. “We still have a few 1000 left, your Mom and I are going to rent a place. We still have a salary! We can look after ourselves!”

Mom Xia nodded and added, “That’s right. In the past when we didn’t have a house, didn’t we rent too? It’s not an issue.”

But at that time, Dad and Mom’s dream was to buy a house.

Compared to now, of course it mattered.

They had used twenty years of their lives to service the home loan, and now they had sold the house off.

Xia Nuannuan was terribly anxious now. She bit her lip and decided. “No—”

Before she could speak further, her father stood up and said, “That’s enough, say no more! This is a done deal. Nuannuan, as long as you live happily, your mom and I are fine! Besides, when we have any needs in the future, we will come to you for money. When the time comes that we are old and you have to look after us, we don’t want to hear the Shen family make thoughtless remarks.”

At those words, Xia Nuannuan was defeated and fell silent.

Mom Xia patted the girl on her shoulder and said, “Okay, let’s stop all of this now. It wouldn’t be nice for Zihao to suspect that something’s wrong.”

Xia Nuannuan’s eyes were still bloodshot. “But—”

“There’s no but,.” Dad Xia said again. “If you dare go ask for your money back, you- you’ll be the death of me!”
