Guan's mother had an extremely close relationship with Guan Shimeng, so when she saw Guan Shimeng in tears, she became anxious as well.

She quickly started to comfort Guan Shimeng.

"Child, don't cry, don't cry, everything will be okay."

As Guan Shimeng cried harder and harder, Guan's mother suddenly felt at a loss.

"Did Old Guan take the wrong medicine today? Why has he started hitting people? Didn't he promise to sit down and talk this out?"

Hearing the screams getting louder and louder outside, Guan's mother also showed a look of intolerance.

"No! Mom, I have to go out! If Dad keeps hitting him like this, Xu Fan will be beaten to death!"

Guan Shimeng made to go downstairs as soon as she got up, while Guan's mother looked on, somewhat conflicted.

Guan Shanhai had ordered that if Xu Fan didn't leave, Guan Shimeng shouldn't be allowed out.

But now, with the situation having escalated to this point, if she didn't go out and stop it, it could really result in a fatality...

"Forget it, forget it, let's go out quickly and have a look."

After weighing the pros and cons, Guan's mother clenched her teeth and led Shimeng, rushing out of the bedroom.

"Ouch, help, it's killing me."

"Uh, this..."

Soon, the mother and daughter rushed downstairs, but the scene they saw in the living room left them dumbfounded.

Guan Shanhai was wielding a broom, propped against the couch panting like a dead dog, while Xu Fan was sitting comfortably on the sofa, shouting weakly.

Not a single injury could be seen on his body!

The mother and daughter stood dumbfounded, looking at each other involuntarily.

It seemed that things were not as they had imagined...

"Ouch, Shimeng, you finally came out. If you hadn't, your old dad would have killed me!"

He had been shouting for so long that his voice was almost hoarse. Finally, he had managed to call Shimeng out, and now Xu Fan disregarded Guan Shanhai and hid behind Shimeng.

At that moment, Guan Shanhai, supporting himself on the couch, saw that the rascal Xu Fan was tightly holding his daughter's arm, his eyes immediately turned red!

"You little rascal! Let go of her right now!"

Startled by his shout, Xu Fan immediately put on a frightened look and started acting spoiled with Shimeng.

"Look, you see..."

"You!"

Xu Fan might as well have had the word 'jerk' written all over his face now, and Shimeng was so angry she dodged her foot, scolding herself for being silly to worry about him so much just a moment ago in the room...

With a twist of her mouth, Shimeng then turned to look at Guan Shanhai.

"Dad, didn't you promise me to have a calm and collected talk with Xu Fan, how could you..."

As Shimeng spoke, she glanced at the broom Guan Shanhai was clutching tightly in his hand, feeling perplexed. Her father was never one to hit people.

How could he have become this angry with Xu Fan today...

"Shut up! I'll deal with you later!"

Guan Shanhai, still in a rage, saw Shimeng daring to talk to him and immediately cursed at her.

This was arguably the first time he had been this angry with his daughter, and Shimeng got so frightened that she subconsciously stepped back.

Guan's mother noticed this and instinctively positioned Xu Fan and Shimeng behind her.

"Guan, did you take the wrong medicine today? Do you want to sleep on the sofa again tonight?"

"I..."

When Guan Shanhai saw his wife, he shriveled up like a mouse seeing a cat, instantly deflated, and he lowered his head without daring to say a word.

But seeing Xu Fan hiding in the back with a smirk on his face, the anger that had just died down flared up again!

"Don't try me! Ask him, what has this little rascal done to our daughter!"

Guan Shanhai pointed at Xu Fan and started cursing again.

Guan's mother frowned at this development.

"Old Guan, what are you talking about?"

"Hmph, what am I talking about? This stinking boy, he did that sort of thing with your good daughter, got it!"

Raise a son frugally, a daughter in wealth, Guan Shimeng is Guan Shanhai's only girl, whom he had cherished since she was little.

He almost never let her suffer any hardships.

On the other hand, he worked hard to cultivate Guan Shimeng, thinking when she grew up, he would find her a suitable husband.

However, the net of heaven has large meshes but nothing escapes it; his precious daughter had just come of age when this stinking boy took advantage of her vulnerability.

Guan Shanhai, how could he not be furious?

"This…"

When Guan Shanhai spoke out, Mrs. Guan was taken aback; dumbfounded, she turned to look at her daughter behind her.

If what her husband said was correct, then this matter was indeed serious.

"Mengmeng, tell Mom the truth, did you do it with him?"

Having pondered for a moment, Mrs. Guan gazed at her daughter very seriously.

"This…"

Hearing this, Guan Shimeng was somewhat dazed, what on earth was going on…

Understanding what her father implied, Guan Shimeng, flushed with shame and anger, stomped her foot and explained, "Mom, no! What are you all saying!"

As she spoke, Guan Shimeng pouted and turned her gaze to Xu Fan.

Baseless rumors don't come out of thin air; surely Xu Fan must have said something nonsensical to her father downstairs!

Although, although she had taken the initiative to kiss Xu Fan, but that sort of thing, she still didn't dare to do!

"Are you sure, you're not lying to me?"

"I'm not, really!"

Mrs. Guan remained skeptical, and at this point, Guan Shimeng was so anxious, tears were almost falling.

"Alright, come with me upstairs for a moment."

Seeing her daughter this anxious, she was likely telling the truth, but the matter was too serious to be careless, Mrs. Guan reasoned and took Guan Shimeng upstairs to check.

Tugging on Guan Shimeng, Mrs. Guan instinctively glanced over at Guan Shanhai.

Guan Shanhai, who had been ready to launch another attack after his wife's departure, was scared stiff, dropping the broom in his hands, not even daring to look at Mrs. Guan.

"We'll talk when I come back downstairs, behave yourself, got that?"

Soon after, the two of them went upstairs.

Xu Fan retracted his gaze, secretly heaving a sigh of relief.

He knew Guan Shimeng's personality well; she was so anxious that she probably wasn't lying.

With this in mind, he believed that nothing consequential had happened between them that night.

Whew…

In that case, he could relax a little.

Xu Fan chuckled to himself, then approached Guan Shanhai.

He didn't dare to run now; Guan Shanhai was the epitome of henpecked. His wife had spoken, so how could he dare to pick a fight?

"Hehe, Uncle, you're really something!"

Xu Fan said, grinning and sitting in front of Guan Shanhai, giving him a thumbs up.

"Tsk tsk tsk, how does the saying go, 'the older, the stronger'!"

"If you weren't an official, I think, in the Olympics, Huaxia would surely have one more gold medal."

"Shut your mouth!"

Guan Shanhai might have been cowed now, but that didn't mean he had taken a liking to Xu Fan. Without any courtesy, he glared ferociously at Xu Fan.

"Hmph, punk, don't think because my wife spoke up, I will spare you. If it turns out you did something bad to my daughter, I won't let you off the hook!"
