Chapter 1256 A Thief From Within Is Hard To Guard Against

?

"Xiao He, you're here! Come in quickly! Girls really look different once they grow up. You look completely different from when you were young! You're so beautiful!" Jiang Shu said happily.

Deng Rui walked on tiptoes to Deng Fan's side and said, "Look at your Mom. If she's a man, she's a cad!"

Deng Fan did not know if he should go forward to stop Jiang Shu and ask her to calm down. At this moment, Jiang Shu was already holding on to Xia He's hand and refusing to let go. She even kept touching Xia He, the fondness in her eyes seemingly about to overflow and she looked like she might drool soon.

"Come on, Dad. Don't act innocent. It'll be terrible if my mother hears you! Back then, my mother wouldn't have married you if you're not good-looking," Deng Fan said.

Deng Rui straightened his back proudly and said, "Hmph! Of course! Back then, I was the school hunk! So many girls wooed me! Your mother has good taste!"

Deng Fan held back his laughter. This was completely different from Jiang Shu's version of the story. Jiang Shu had clearly told Deng Fan that it was Deng Rui who wooed her!

Actually, neither of them had told him the truth. At that time, Deng Rui's family was very poor, but his parents did everything they could to allow Deng Rui to go to school. After his parents finished paying for his education, they suddenly died in an accident. Thereafter, their house was forcefully taken away by Deng Rui's grandfather. He suddenly found himself homeless and even had to sleep under a bridge for a period of time.

At one point, he was so hungry that he fainted by the roadside. It was Jiang Shu who found him and brought him home. Fortunately, Jiang Shu's family had some money at that time and had enough food to feed him as well. That was how Deng Rui managed to survive in the end.

As a form of repayment to the Jiang family, Deng Rui gave Jiang Shu tuition for free in exchange for room and board at the Jiang family's house. He was a good teacher to Jiang Shu and the young Jiang Shu eventually fell in love with Deng Rui. There was an eight-year gap between her and Deng Rui! However, she still insisted on marrying Deng Rui despite her parents' objections.

Deng Rui had never forgotten Jiang Shu's kindness to him. Of course, he married Jiang Shu out of love and not because he wanted to repay her kindness. During the decades of their marriage, no matter how much money they had, Deng Rui would always set aside the best things for Jiang Shu.

The fact that he loved Jiang Shu her entire life proved that she had not chosen the wrong person.

"Save those stories of yours for other people. I'll go and entertain Xia He. If I don't go soon, my mother will rub a layer of skin off Xia He's hands." After saying that, Deng Fan went to Xia He's side. At this moment, Jiang Shu was still talking to Xia He.

"Xiao He, how nice will it be if you are my daughter! I only have one son, Deng Fan. This is the thing I regret the most in my life! I have always wanted a daughter! Why don't you become my daughter!" Jiang Shu said excitedly.

Just as Xia He was lost for words, Deng Fan hurriedly interrupted Jiang Shu and said, "Don't! What is this about having a daughter! I don't want any younger siblings! Stop it!"

"Xiao He is older than you! She can't be your younger sibling!" Jiang Shu said angrily.

???d?s??vel.c?m "No older siblings as well! Nothing!" Deng Fan said agitatedly.

This was someone he wanted to be his wife! How could he let Jiang Shu make her his older sister! Then all his previous efforts would have been in vain! He had waited bitterly for so many years!

Deng Rui also gestured to Jiang Shu from behind Xia He. Jiang Shu immediately understood what the father-and-son duo was thinking and said to Deng Fan with a smile, "Then you have to work hard quickly! If you can't do it, don't blame me for making a move. Anyway, I don't mind the status as long as I can keep Xia He by my side! I'm not picky~"

Xia He lowered her head and laughed discreetly. She did not expect Deng Fan's family to be so cute. She had thought that these highly educated people were all very rigid!

She did not expect Deng Fan to be so aloof in front of outsiders, but so chatty in private and to act so childishly in front of his parents.

As there were still many other guests at home, Jiang Shu did not continue talking to Xia He and went to get busy in the kitchen. Deng Rui patted Deng Fan's shoulder and said, "Your mother is very capable! You have to be careful!"

Deng Fan held his forehead helplessly. What exactly was going on…

He did not expect that his greatest enemy was not Luo Yu, but his own mother! It was really hard to guard against a thief from within!
