And it is very likely that this person is hidden in Feng Xun's company!

"He is indeed not the one who harms you directly, but it is because you are with him that you encounter these troubles!" Xia's father said this, shook his head and sighed: "Xiaoqi, your mother saved you back then, not to let you take risks!"

Xia Chuqi's body trembled slightly. She could refute all her father's words, but she could not refute anything about her father mentioning her mother!

"Dad, I'm sorry, I didn't deliberately take risks..." Xia Chuqi lowered his head and said guiltily: "I just want to obey my own heart, do what I want to do, and like the people I like!"

Xia's father looked at his daughter's head that was lowered because of guilt, remembered his deceased wife's advice before her death, sighed deeply, waved his hand and said, "Forget it, get up!"

When Xia Chuqi heard this, he looked up at his father, and a hint of joy appeared on his face: "Did you forgive me?"

"Since you know you've come back, you haven't disappointed your father!" Xia's father said in a faint tone, his expression eased a lot than before.

"Thank you dad!" Xia Chuqi breathed a sigh of relief, stood up happily, and even volunteered to roll up his sleeves and said, "Dad, I'll help you grind ink!"

"No need..." Xia's father waved his hand and said in a faint tone: "Looking at how you are, I'm afraid you just got off the plane and didn't have time to wash up, right? Go and rest for a while, I don't need anyone else here!"

"Yes!" Xia Chuqi responded with a smile, feeling a little moved. It seemed that his father still cared about him very much, otherwise he would not have seen at first glance that he had just got off the plane and rushed back to the old house!

She was about to leave the study, and her father's voice came from behind: "I have heard from my boss and my second brother about you. Since you like those jobs in science, engineering and machinery, I will not interfere with you again..."

"Dad" Xia Chuqi turned around and looked at his father, with a look of surprise on his face.

So with the persuasion of the elder brother and the second brother, my father finally changed his previous stubbornness and planned to accept her doing the jobs she likes?

"I will not interfere with your work. Tao Mingxuan, you don't want to marry, and I won't force you to marry, but if you marry Feng Xun... don't even think about it!"

Xia’s father’s words made Xia Chuqi’s smile suddenly stiff.

If her father's previous words made her mood fly to the clouds, then the second half of the sentence would have made her good mood fall to the bottom again!

Although she has not planned to marry Feng Xun so soon, her father's firm attitude seems to have cut off her imagination!

She doesn’t have to marry Brother Mingxuan, but she can’t be with Feng Xun either. This is the condition offered by her father!

Xia Chuqi even wanted to question her father why she was so prejudiced to Feng Xun, but seeing that her father had lowered his head and continued to write, she obviously did not intend to talk to her, so she could only leave the study with her head down and dejectedly.

I thought my eldest brother and second brother could persuade my father to accept Feng Xun, but now it seems that this path is not feasible... What should I do to get my father to accept Feng Xun?

Xia Chuqi sighed. Before he could reach the stairs, he saw a familiar figure swaying from under his nose. It was Tao Mingxuan who was about to go downstairs!

"Brother Mingxuan" Xia Chuqi quickly called him and walked forward quickly: "Why are you here? Are you here to visit my father?"

Tao Mingxuan originally planned to leave in a hurry, but she didn't expect that she could only turn her body to face her with a stiff look on her face.

"Well, I came to visit Uncle Xia, but I heard that he was practicing calligraphy, so I couldn't bother me!"

His voice was still gentle and nice, but Xia Chuqi heard a strange feeling.

Thinking of himself just walking out of the study, he went downstairs. He didn't know when he came. Had he been standing outside the study and listening to the conversation between their father and daughter?

"Brother Mingxuan, when did you come? Have you heard what my dad and I said just now..." Xia Chuqi asked hesitantly.

Tao Mingxuan curled a bitter smile on the corner of his lips. Of course he heard it, and he could hear every word clearly!

He heard her confession to her father that she did not love her at all, so she was unwilling to marry. He also heard her confession to her love for Feng Xun, and even repeatedly argued for Feng Xun, such an urgent tone could not deceive anyone!

She was really moved by Feng Xun!

He originally thought that she was with Feng Xun because she was lured and deceived by Feng Xun. After all, Feng Xun had such assets at a young age, and could calm the chaos in the family and take over the entire arms group steadily. His methods were extremely suitable for people...

He believed that one day, she would understand that Feng Xun was not the kind-hearted person who was suitable for her, but she did not expect that her heart would fall on Feng Xun in a short time!

How could he be willing to do this? He has been by her side for so many years, but he is not as good as Feng Xun who has only appeared for several months!

"Brother Mingxuan, I'm sorry..." Xia Chuqiyi saw his expression and knew that he might have heard everything, including the words he said he didn't love him, so he could only say apologetically.

Tao Mingxuan waved his hand and smiled bitterly in his heart. What he wanted to hear was never her apology!

Seeing Tao Mingxuan stopping him from continuing, his expression was a little sad. Xia Chuqi felt a little uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but say, "Brother Mingxuan..."

Before she could continue talking, Tao Mingxuan had adjusted his expression and looked at her with a faint smile, his voice still gentle: "Xiaoqi, if you have time now, please accompany me to have a walk!"

Xia Chuqi nodded in response.

The two of them slowly walked to the backyard of the old house, where there was an ancient big banyan tree, which had been standing for many years with the century-old old house.

Tao Mingxuan looked at the big banyan tree and couldn't help but smile and sigh: "Xiao Qi, I still remember when you were a child, you liked to climb onto the banyan tree, so that everyone could not find you..." "Yes, every time I was confined by my father, I would climb up the banyan tree angrily, sit on the trunk of the banyan tree, and even see outside the old house, so that I could imagine that I had actually broken free from the shackles and look at the world outside the old house..." Xia Chuqi nodded, and when he mentioned the things he was in childhood, he couldn't help but laugh.

Get up.
