Commander-in-Chief Xia, who was relieved, changed a sitting position that made him more comfortable and then continued, “As human beings, it is important to reflect on ourselves. Good that you admit your shortcomings. You must change them, not for the sake of pleasing Engineer Fu, nor to marry Little Ye as soon as possible, but to prevent Little Ye from being caught between you and her father, you understand?”
He seldom taught Xia Jinyuan, who had his own opinion. Apart from being naughty, he really didn’t need to worry about his son much since he was a child. Over time, he felt that there was nothing that his son could not solve.
However, things were not the same now. He had to correct some minor problems.
“I believe that Engineer Fu has seen your strengths this time. At that time, you were the leader of the rescue team. It is very likely that he could only see your strengths and not your minor shortcomings. So you really need to correct them. For example, you can start by changing that “jerky” vibe that comes out of you from time to time; I’m not used to it, too. So how can your future father-in-law get used to it?”
The preaching Commander-in-Chief directly confided his son’s most unsatisfactory shortcoming, and it was this shortcoming that made him angry most of the time.
This time, Xia Jinyuan listened carefully and very much agreed with the phrase “but to prevent Little Ye from being caught between you and her father.” He totally understood what his father’s intention was.
When he was chasing Little Fox, he knew in his heart that he had the arrogance of a devil that he had cultivated when he was young, which kept Little Fox away from him for fear of offending him.
Later, she only agreed to be his girlfriend when she completely understood his character.
He and Little Fox often went out on missions, they only met occasionally, and that was how they had a better understanding of each other.
But his future father-in-law was different. First of all, he was a father. As a father, he definitely wanted to find a stable man for his only daughter so that his daughter could rely on that man for a lifetime. Men who seem to have no sense of responsibility would never be chosen as their son-in-law.
He dared to pat his chest and vowed to God that he could take care of Little Fox for a lifetime, and Little Fox also absolutely believed that he could take care of her for a lifetime. But Engineer Fu might not believe him yet because he didn’t understand him!
So, there were two things he had to do. First, how to get rid of his shortcomings? And secondly, how could he build a bridge of trust between his future father-in-law and him? That was even more important.
“Old man, do you think I can take care of Ye Jian? Or should I say, do you think I am a responsible man?” Seeing Commander-in-Chief Xia’s face darkened in the previous sentence, Xia Jinyuan immediately changed his words which made the Commander-in-Chief Xia’s face turn clear.
“I believe in you. That’s why I want you to work hard to marry Little Ye.”
Of course, he understood his son, and he knew that his son was a responsible man and could take care of Little Ye!
Xia Jinyuan smiled and stood up gracefully while laughing, “Then the problem is solved; I will let my future father-in-law know that I am a man worthy of Ye Jian, and let him believe that I am the one who can give his daughter a lifetime of happiness.”
“So, correcting my shortcomings can come later. The more important thing is how to make my future father-in-law believe in me. Okay, old man, let’s end our father and son conversation here. Come on, I’ll accompany you home tonight.”
Commander-in-Chief Xia nodded. After much nonsense, this last sentence was the only one he actually listened to.
