Chapter 840 - Trip to Hainan (4) (2/2)

Mom Xia frowned and said, “That’s too much!”

Xia Nuannuan looked at them and said, “Dad, Mom, why did you do such a silly thing? Why did you sell the house?!”

Dad Xia sighed and replied, “You are not marrying into a normal family. This is a wealthy family. You didn’t know when you were getting married, but your mom and I heard people talking about you.”

Xia Nuannuan stood up straight and said, “What’s there to talk about? I have a clear conscience! What’s there to say about me? I’m not afraid of being talked about. Dad, Mom, we are only accountable to ourselves, not others. Is ego more important, or survival more important? You’ve sold your house now, where are you going to live?”

Dad Xia was taken aback by his daughter’s imposing comments. “We still have a few 1000 left, your Mom and I are going to rent a place. We still have a salary! We can look after ourselves!”

Mom Xia nodded and added, “That’s right. In the past when we didn’t have a house, didn’t we rent too? It’s not an issue.”

But at that time, Dad and Mom’s dream was to buy a house.

Compared to now, of course it mattered.

They had used twenty years of their lives to service the home loan, and now they had sold the house off.

Xia Nuannuan was terribly anxious now. She bit her lip and decided. “No—”

Before she could speak further, her father stood up and said, “That’s enough, say no more! This is a done deal. Nuannuan, as long as you live happily, your mom and I are fine! Besides, when we have any needs in the future, we will come to you for money. When the time comes that we are old and you have to look after us, we don’t want to hear the Shen family make thoughtless remarks.”

At those words, Xia Nuannuan was defeated and fell silent.

Mom Xia patted the girl on her shoulder and said, “Okay, let’s stop all of this now. It wouldn’t be nice for Zihao to suspect that something’s wrong.”

Xia Nuannuan’s eyes were still bloodshot. “But—”

“There’s no but,.” Dad Xia said again. “If you dare go ask for your money back, you- you’ll be the death of me!”
