“What’s wrong with living together? You two weren’t even married when you first got together,” Xiao You brought up her parents’ old story to defend herself.
Guo Father reflexively retorted, “That’s different. Your mother was a dancer on an electronic flower car.”
This immediately triggered a strong reaction from Guo Mother, “You old ghost, so what if I was a dancer? If you hadn’t been so persistent back then, would I have slept with you?”
Guo Father was the leader of an electronic flower car troupe in his youth, and Guo Mother was a provocative dancer in his group, which was how they met.
Guo Father, having accidentally stepped on a landmine, tried to change the subject, “Ah, what are you going on about? We’re talking about our daughter’s matter, don’t go off track.”
Witnessing the Guo couple arguing without regard for their surroundings, Yun Shaoye seemed to understand where Xiao You’s unique personality came from.
He had been curious about what kind of family would raise such a personality, and now the truth was clear.
Despite being repeatedly interrupted, Yun Shaoye tried to speak again, “Uncle, Aunt…”
“Who’s your uncle!” Guo Father said rudely, “Young man, did you leave your eyes at home? How dare you take advantage of my daughter? Are you tired of living?”
“I…” he was about to speak, but this time he was interrupted by Xiao You.
“Don’t pay attention to my parents. Once they start arguing, anything you say is useless!” She patted his shoulder, advising him not to waste his breath.
Hearing her daughter seemingly undermining them, Guo Mother shouted, “You little girl! Who are you calling argumentative? Don’t you realize we’re standing up for you!”
Xiao You was unappreciative, “What are you standing up for? I’ve already said nothing happened between us, and if you don’t believe me, I can’t help it.”
“Nothing would happen while living together? As if anyone would believe that!”
“I told you, I picked him up!”
“It’s not as easy to pick up a person as a stray dog.”
Realizing further argument would lead nowhere, Xiao You changed tack, “So what if he was picked up? Being picked up is good!”
“I’ll deal with you, you sweet potato!” Guo Father scolded.
