Who was supposed to do what?

In the living room of the Xia Family's old residence, silence engulfed the tensed atmosphere.

On the luxurious couch sat a graceful woman donning an elegant cream-colored qipao. Her countentance was like that of a queen.

Beside her, an extremely attractive man with a kingly aura was looking at their son with a contemplative gaze.

The whole place seemed like a trial court, with the miserable young man at the center, waiting for his final verdict.

"What do you think, Renjian?" The beautiful woman asked his husband's opinion. "Shall we send him back to his grandmother?"

"Hmm..." The man named Renjian nodded his head in agreement.

Hearing his mother's words and his father's approval, Xia Jinhu was horrified. His face turned white as sheet and his eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

He could not afford to go back to that evil incarnate grandmother of his!

She would surely prey him to those vixens who didn't even know how to cook their own meals yet again!

Thinking about this made Xia Jinhu shudder and tremble in fear...

Not caring about his own image any longer, that is if there's still a bit of it remaining, Xia Jinhu groveled before his parents.

"Mother, Father, I'm sorry! I'm really really sorry... I won't do it again! Please, don't send me back! I swear, I'll do anything you want me to do! Just please... Don't send me back there!"

The handsome heartthrob looked as though he'd rather become a slave than to go back to his grandmother.

Slavery, huh?

Just how many single ladies in Zhong Country would have fought over the chance to enslave this man of their dreams?

Seeing the young man cry while wiping his snot and tears, Hua Jinqiu and Xia Renjian could not help but laugh at their son's antics.

Although this son of theirs had a bad habit of minding other people's lives, Master Xia and Madam Xia could not bring themselves to punish or be angry at him.

After all, he and his older brother were the fruits of their love for one another.

They just hoped that he would be able to change this habit someday.

Now, about Xia Jiannan's situation...

Although the busybody Jinhu had probably blown everything out of proportion, Xia Renjian still had some part in him that hoped that Xia Jiannan indeed had a woman he liked.

The father was not the least bit concern about the welfare of his eldest son after hearing Xia Jinhu's animated narration. Besides, he was sure that Xia Jiannan would not just go with someone he did not know.

Holding Hua Jinqiu in his embrace, Xia Renjian swear to the gods that no matter who his sons fall in love with, he would not hinder them from finding their happiness.

He would never let his sons experience what he had gone through when he was courting their mother.

Looking tenderly at his wife, Xia Renjian sighed blissfully. With a loving and caring beautiful wife and two handsome sons, he could only wish for one more thing...

To have grandchildren.

. . .

Back at Wang Rouxi's place.

Upon arriving at the dining room, Xia Jiannan was pleasantly surprised to see a table full of dishes. He did not expect her to cook this many...

It was basically a full course meal!

Raising an eyebrow, he looked at Wang Rouxi curiously as if asking her why did she cook so many food.

Meeting his gaze, Wang Rouxi instantly understood what he was thinking, and she then revealed a sheepish smile, "I really do not know what you want to eat, so... I cook many dishes! That way, you will be able to choose which one would you like to eat!"

Xia Jiannan did not know whether to laugh or cry.

'You could have just asked me, alright?!'

But seeing the woman's delighted expression, Xia Jiannan did not have the heart to express his thoughts outloud, possibly ruining her mood.

In the end, he could only say, "Thank you for the food!"

This simple sentence caused a huge smile to bloom on Wang Rouxi's face, but that smile was rather sly, hmm... "Don't say thank you yet. You have to give it a try first."

Xia Jiannan felt something was not right about the words Wang Rouxi had just spoken, but before he could figure out what was wrong, Wang Rouxi had already pulled out a chair and had Xia Jiannan sit on it like a gentleman. "Come on, eat before the food gets cold!"

Xia Jiannan: "..."

Isn't it the man was supposed to do that?
