The Reborn Aristocrat's Daughter-Chapter 872 - 394_2
Chapter 872: Chapter 394_2
She just caught such an opportunity to give Xu Haoyang a call.
Xu Haoyang didn’t expect that Xiao Shiyao’s mother Situ Xin would actually worry about him feeling sick after getting drunk and even prepared medicine for him. In his heart, he silently wondered if this meant that he had passed the test with Xiao Shiyao’s parents? The thought that it might be possible made him so happy he felt like dancing and spinning around. "Really, thank you so much, Auntie. Should I come over to get it now?"
As Xu Haoyang spoke, he bounced out of bed, ready to change his clothes, freshen up, and then go to find Xiao Shiyao.
"I have a class soon, just come to the school and find me. Call me when you arrive." Xiao Shiyao thought about the class she had to rush to school for soon. Also, she was worried that if her dad saw Xu Haoyang, he wouldn’t be able to resist taking Xu Haoyang to their family’s gym to spar with him.
She knew that her dad was feeling very uncomfortable right now. She was sure that if it hadn’t been for her mom being present yesterday, and her mom found Xu Haoyang quite likeable, Xu Haoyang would have been directly taken to the gym at their house by her dad yesterday.
So, just to be on the safe side, she decided to meet Xu Haoyang at the school instead.
"Okay, I’m leaving right now."
After ending the call with Xiao Shiyao, he went back to the bathroom, washed up, and then went to his wardrobe to pick out his favorite clothes to wear. In front of his beloved girl, he always hoped to leave the best impression.
Xu Haoyang changed his clothes and looked at himself in the mirror, gleefully imagining the moment he would see Xiao Shiyao later.
Outside the door, Mother Xu saw that it was this time and Xu Haoyang hadn’t made a move yet. Worried, she came up to check. Afraid that Xu Haoyang wouldn’t hear, Mother Xu knocked louder than usual.
Xu Haoyang was startled by his mom’s knocking. "Mom, why are you making such a big noise so early in the morning? Hey, stop knocking, I’m coming to open the door." Xu Haoyang said as he went to open the door for his mom.
After he opened the door, he couldn’t help but mutter, "Mom, can’t you be more ladylike? Didn’t you see how gentle Aunt Xiao is?"
Xu Haoyang didn’t bring up Xiao Shiyao or the Xiao Family, and his mom was slightly more at ease, but as soon as he mentioned the Xiao Family and Xiao Shiyao, Mother Xu bristled.
She thought about how just last night, her son was sent back by Xiao Xuyang and Xiao Xuqu personally, and they didn’t sleep all night. Their eyes were heavy with dark circles. They were worried that their foolish son had offended the Xiao Family and Situ Family, wondering how they would deal with it.
Now it seemed they had worried and not slept for a night in vain. This troublemaker had snored all night and woke up as if nothing had happened, even comparing her to Madam Xiao.
This rascal, does he not know Madam Xiao’s glorious achievements? How can she compare to Madam Xiao?
"You rascal, usually your father and I think you’re quite sensible and we’re reassured by that. But you’ve gone ahead and caused such trouble without a word. How did your father and I teach you, telling you to have self-awareness as a person."
Xu Haoyang felt bewildered by his mom suddenly grabbing him to give a lecture. Typically, he would have the mood and time to listen to his mom’s lesson. But this time, he was in a hurry to see Xiao Shiyao, and he didn’t have the time to listen to his mom’s lecture. So he interrupted her without hesitation: "Mom, I don’t understand what you’re saying? I don’t seem to have caused any trouble recently."
"You haven’t caused trouble? Tell me, is Xiao Shiyao someone you should set your sights on? Who is Xiao Shiyao? She’s the young lady of the Xiao Family and Situ Family, pampered in their hands. Do you think, with you being like this, they would even look your way?" Saying that, Mother Xu even gave her son a disdainful once-over.
A bunch of black lines crossed Xu Haoyang’s forehead. Isn’t it said that mothers always find their children pleasing, that their own children are always the best in their eyes? Why was it different with his mom?
Why did she disdain him so much?
"Let me tell you, while you haven’t yet angered the Xiao Family and Situ Family, you better get rid of that idea and stay away from Xiao Shiyao, let me tell you."
"Mom." Xu Haoyang interrupted his mom again: "I will never give up liking Yaoyao. You should know your son; from when I was young until now, I have never liked a girl. Yaoyao is the first girl I’ve liked, and I liked her at first sight. I’m serious about her, I want her to be my girlfriend, I want to marry her as my wife."
"It’s not, you child, why are you so stubborn? Now it’s not about what you want, it’s about whether they are willing or not. The family and background of the girl you like are not even comparable to our Xu Family, you think you can just like and marry as you please. But the issue is, what is Xiao Shiyao’s status, she’s not someone you can just marry if you want to." Mother Xu became anxious as soon as she heard her son’s words. "No way, come with me, I need your father to talk some sense into you."
Saying so, Mother Xu grabbed Xu Haoyang’s arm and dragged him to see Father Xu.
"Mom, let go. I have something on right now. We can talk about this when I get back," Xu Haoyang was also getting desperate. He wanted to talk properly with his mom. But he had made an appointment to meet Xiao Shiyao at school.
"There’s nothing more urgent than this matter right now. Before you understand, you cannot go anywhere."
"Mom, I agreed to meet Yaoyao at school later. Aunt Xiao was worried I would feel unwell after the hangover, so she asked Yaoyao to bring me some medicine."
