Meeting the Future Father-in-law Part 1

Xue Ning immediately gives him a polite bow, trying to extricate her hand from Jingwei's grip. However, Jingwei holds on firmly, refusing to let go. 

This does not go unnoticed by his father, his brother, and the multitude of nosy household staff that are watching with bated breath. 

"Hi Father, this is Xue Ning, my bodyguard." And future wife. That part is left unsaid, but from the way his father narrows his eyes, he gets the implication and does not like it at all. 

"Nice to meet you," Xue Ning says politely, before giving Jingwei a glare that was a lot less polite. Why is he still holding her hand so tightly in front of so many people? Couldn't he tell that his father is this close to bursting a blood vessel?

"Father, do you want the good news or bad news first?" Jingwei asks with a charming grin, ignoring the way Xue Ning is trying to discreetly break free of his hold without making a scene.
