“The older she gets, the more seductive she becomes. She’s simply luring me to her bed at any moment…” Xia Jinyuan said softly before starting the car to leave Dan Gui Garden.
It took some time to drive from Dan Gui Garden to the courtyard. Xia Jinyuan, who only arrived at the courtyard at nine o’clock in the evening, unbuttoned his military uniform and walked into the living room. After a few steps, he arrived at the sofa where Commander Xia was lying with his eyes closed.
When he saw Commander Xia’s white hair, Xia Jinyuan’s eyes darkened.
In his memory, Old Man Xia’s hair had been black and hard as steel needles. Now… his dark hair had dimmed, and the white hair at his temples had grown… His father wasn’t young anymore. He wasn’t the father he remembered raising his belt and glaring daggers at him.
Xia Jinyuan felt suffocated. He walked over gently. “Dad, why didn’t you go back to your room to rest?”
He rarely called Commander Xia ‘Dad’. When he was insensible, he would call him by his full name. Later, he was provoked by Madam Xiao and matured overnight. He realized his mistake and refused to lower his head because of his pride, so he simply stopped calling him.
The older he got, the more mature he became. He did not know when he replaced ‘Dad’ with ‘Old Xia’. Old Xia did not care and let him call him that until now.
Little Fox said that Old Man Xia wanted to hear her call him ‘Dad’. Was it because… he still yearned for him to call him ‘Dad’?
Perhaps he was suddenly made aware of mortality at this moment, he naturally blurted out ‘Dad’.
The light was white, illuminating the fatigue on Commander Xia’s face. He had fallen deeply asleep. It was only when Xia Jinyuan called out ‘Dad’ once more that Commander Xia opened his eyes.
Commander Xia, who had opened his eyes, was like a sleeping lion. Although he was no longer young, his gaze was sharp and dignified. When he sat up straight, there was no longer any fatigue on his face.
“You’re back. Sit down and talk to me about your visit to Little Ye’s house.” Commander Xia sat upright. Commander Xia, who had been in the military for many years and had a military bearing and appearance engraved in his soul, always kept his back straight. In Xia Yiwei’s words, with Commander Xia around, just a simple chat at home could also make one feel as nervous as attending an army meeting.
Commander Xia was a little thirsty, so he took the thermos cup on the coffee table. He, who had just unscrewed the lid, glanced at Xia Jinyuan and said uncertainly, “I think I heard you call me ‘Dad’ just now. Did I hear wrongly?”
“You didn’t hear wrongly. You’re my father. Can’t I call you that?” Xia Jinyuan sat on the sofa beside him and buttoned his military uniform again.
Old Xia couldn’t stand the sight of him not taking off his military uniform and only unbuttoning his shirt. It was better not to provoke him at night.
The guy who liked to make him angry suddenly became obedient. Could it be that he had gotten into trouble with the old master? Could it be that the old master was dissatisfied with Little Six?
Commander Xia’s expression turned serious. “One who’s unaccountably solicitous is hiding evil intentions. Tell me, what happened?”
