“Yes, they were poor folks who lived in the countryside, so what? Despite their impoverished conditions, their son has ended up much more successful than your daughter.” Xiao Yaojing’s rage was written all over her face due to her mother’s spiteful remark.

“Feiran, your daughter is right, you’ve crossed the line,” Mr. Xiao interjected as a warning to his wife.

Mrs. Xiao blushed in embarra.s.sment from their chiding, but she remained stubbornly persistent. “Tell me, don’t you think Cheng Xin is foolish? Though she excelled academically, she dropped out of school for a man, and do you know what next? She simply grabbed some guy off the street and married him! How dumb is she?”

Xiao Yaojing’s parents were university professors. They had retired recently and were therefore finally able to spare some time to visit Xiao Yaojing in the city.

However, the more Xiao Yaojing listened to her mother’s rambling, the gloomier her expression was. Before she could utter another word, Mr. Xiao said, “At the end of the day, you still care about your old cla.s.smate because she didn’t take the college entrance exam with you for a man.”

“Hmph! Who cares about her?” Mrs. Xiao retorted angrily and glared at her husband.

Xiao Yaojing could finally figure out the underlying issue after her father’s interjection before she started another fight with her mother.

Women’s feelings were always so peculiar that even she, as a woman, failed to recognize the real problem from the mess.

“Mom, it’s true that Wen Tao’s father is not knowledgeable or cultured, but he is a very nice person. Look at their son and daughter—both of them have excelled far greater than your daughter has.” Xiao Yaojing’s compliments were not intentional but an indisputable fact. Both Wen Tao and Wen Shan were Ph.D holders. To have two Ph.D. scholars in one family was an achievement that not every family was capable of.

“Stop it, you don’t have to take their side. No matter what, no means no,” Mrs. Xiao huffed. She slammed the table before getting up and storming off into her room.
