Si Jingyu walked over to stand next to him when she heard his words. She took his hand and looked at him, saying, "Children are like debts. Whatever we owe our parents, we return it in the form of our own children. Isn't that how we Chinese pass from one generation to another? So don't fret about it too much. Our daughter will get married, it's just a matter of time. Now that she has found someone she loves, and who is also willing to dote on her, isn't that a good thing?"
Shi Jinyan pondered her words.
The fact was that he knew his anger had been unreasonable. But as a parent, he really could not bear to let go, and he had yet to get his head around it.
Now that Si Jingyu had said these things, it made him feel like he was just throwing a tantrum.
He sat down on the sofa, sighed and then said, "Nevermind then, let's just leave it."
