Chapter 473: Forgiving My Father-in-Law

Rejected 99 Times, the Aloof Campus Belle Comes On Strong

Boss Cutie

"Who else would I pick for if not you? Our son-in-law? He's got a precious daughter of his own! You're not needed!" Father Leng teased with a grin.

The result was that he nearly made Xiang Shan pop a blood vessel. She angrily strode out in front.

Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli, on the other hand, were completely at ease. At least for now, Xiang Shan's target wasn't Jiang Muye anymore.

They followed Xiang Shan into a clothing store.

Father Leng grabbed two jackets and brought them over to Xiang Shan. "Heh heh, take a look, which one looks better?"

"The clothes all look good. You're ugly," Xiang Shan said with contempt. "Not a single one looks good."

"How could that possibly be? Didn't you fall for my looks back when you were young? Plenty of young girls were chasing me back then, and you were the most eager of them all. Sure, I'm a bit older now, but the old blade hasn't dulled!" Father Leng said with a cheeky grin.

Xiang Shan rolled her eyes. "I'm going to throw up. Don't disgust me. Go somewhere cool. I was tricked by you back then. If I'd known your true face was this shameless, I'd have become a nun rather than marry you!"

"But you still married me, didn't you? You keep looking at this outfit. If you like it, just buy it. I'll pay," Father Leng said, beaming at Xiang Shan.

Xiang Shan yanked away the clothes Father Leng was about to grab and huffed, "Keep your hands off."

"I'll touch them! Today I'm buying out this whole store, believe it or not!"

"You think you're the only one who can buy? I'll not only buy, I'll invest, and we'll see who the shop owner picks as the boss!"

"I'll get his brand company listed and drive the stock price up!"

After watching her parents bicker nonstop, Leng Ruoli burst into laughter.

Leng Ruoli looked at Jiang Muye with a smile. "I think they really are like little kids."

Jiang Muye nodded. "They even squabble."

"Squabbling is good. It's way better than fighting," Leng Ruoli said, very satisfied with the current situation.

The conflicts between her parents were clearly much fewer than before. Back when they fought, they'd deliberately wound each other, speaking without the slightest mercy, jabbing right at each other's scars.

And that wasn't all. They'd smash all kinds of things. Apart from the sounds of argument, the house was filled with cold violence.

Even when the two of them met, they wouldn't exchange a single word.

As a result, Leng Ruoli had both feared them meeting and feared them not meeting.

Back then, she'd been so starved for love, so desperate for it.

Fortunately, Heaven still pitied her. It turned out all the misfortune she'd suffered before was just so she could meet the good fortune that came after.

Looking at the handsome, gentle Jiang Muye before her, Leng Ruoli's heart went soft.

Jiang Muye held Leng Ruoli's hand. "In the future, when we're that age, let's not fight. A little squabbling is just fine."

Too much harmony wasn't good either. It was too easy for things to settle into blandness. Being able to squabble added a bit of spice.

"Okay," Leng Ruoli said with a smile.

"But if there's something to say, say it properly. Whatever you do, don't get physical. I won't hit a girl, and of course you can't domestic abuse me either," Jiang Muye said with a chuckle, leaning close to Leng Ruoli's ear.

Leng Ruoli instinctively patted Jiang Muye's back. "Who's abusing you~!"

"See, you're abusing me right now." Jiang Muye pointed at what she was doing, smiling.

Leng Ruoli's face flushed red. "That doesn't count!"

"Doesn't count as what?" Jiang Muye said with a laugh. "Then what's this?"

"Affection," Leng Ruoli replied softly.

That single sentence left Jiang Muye not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He blew a breath into Leng Ruoli's ear. "Oh, if that's called affection, then what do we call the things we do every night?"

Leng Ruoli slapped Jiang Muye's back like a little octopus. "Bad guy, bad guy!"

She was so shy her cheeks were bright red, and Jiang Muye laughed heartily at the sight.

While Jiang Muye was flirting, Xiang Shan was still figuring out how to mess with Father Leng.

"Leng Qihua, this one, this one, this one, and this one too. I want to try them all on. Bring them over!" Xiang Shan ordered Father Leng with her chin held high.

Father Leng already had over a dozen garments in his hands, and they were heavy.

Father Leng looked enviously at Jiang Muye and Leng Ruoli, who were laughing and chatting not far away.

Why was his own daughter's romance so sweet, while his was different?

And his daughter was so gentle and charming. How was her mother so savage and fierce?

Ah, comparison really was the death of a man.

"So many!" Jiang Muye exclaimed.

Leng Ruoli gave a soft, sweet smile. "Now you know how good I am to you, don't you?"

"Yes, my girlfriend really is good to me. I'm especially satisfied." Jiang Muye reached out and flicked Leng Ruoli's nose.

Leng Ruoli smiled sweetly, which made Jiang Muye lean in and kiss her lips.

Xiang Shan had Father Leng stand at the fitting room entrance while she changed one outfit after another. If she didn't like something, she'd drape the clothes over Father Leng's face.

Father Leng still had to cooperate and give different opinions.

He bore it without complaint.

This also made Jiang Muye feel he'd really found himself a good wife.

If he were like his Father-in-Law, he'd be worked to death.

Xiang Shan really was a She-Devil. After trying on the clothes, she made Father Leng pay for all of them.

"Alright, take them and go," Xiang Shan said, shooting Father Leng a look.

"So many?" Father Leng looked at the bags and parcels.

"Oh, you're unwilling?" Xiang Shan turned to look at Father Leng.

After seeing the hint in Xiang Shan's eyes, Father Leng instinctively shivered and put on a fawning smile. "Willing, willing."

Xiang Shan nodded in satisfaction and even urged him on. "Hurry up."

There was nothing Father Leng could do but carry the big and small bags and follow behind Xiang Shan.

"Father-in-Law, let me help." Jiang Muye really couldn't stand watching anymore and wanted to help Father Leng. After all, this was his future Father-in-Law, so scoring a few goodwill points was only natural.

As a result, Xiang Shan glared coldly at Jiang Muye. "Don't you dare touch anything."

Leng Ruoli tugged on Jiang Muye's sleeve. "Let them settle their own affairs internally. Otherwise my mom will torment my dad even more."

Hearing that, Jiang Muye felt even more sympathy for Father Leng's plight.

Father Leng sighed. "I can handle it myself."

Even though he was carrying so much, he didn't complain, and even smiled as he talked to Xiang Shan.

Jiang Muye marveled that Father Leng could press his warm face to a cold backside and still manage to keep a smile on. What great service spirit.

After Father Leng loaded the things into Xiang Shan's car, Xiang Shan left without a word, and Father Leng even got a face full of exhaust.

Father Leng was full of resentment.

Jiang Muye felt even more sympathy and sighed. "Why must women make things hard for men?"

This was a case of one willing to hit and the other willing to be hit.

Father Leng was deeply melancholy. "I finally come back after so long, and she's so cold and unfeeling."

Leng Ruoli encouraged Father Leng. "Dad, keep it up. Knowing Mom's temper, the fact that she's willing to go shopping with you proves she's already forgiven you."

When Jiang Muye heard Leng Ruoli's words, he was shocked.

Forgiven?

So what exactly had Father-in-Law done to wrong Xiang Shan that made her so averse to him?
