Chapter 611: Chapter 599: Comparison

Xia Xin and Xia Feng nodded, promising to find a suitable time to bring their friends over for a visit.

After dinner, everyone sat in the living room, discussing recent happenings and plans for the New Year. The topic inevitably turned to their marriage pressures.

Xia Yu, Xia Xin, Xia Qing, and Xia Yan were the main targets.

Xia Yue quickly came up with an excuse, holding Xuanxuan and claiming that it was bath time for him. She then headed upstairs, fearing the topic might eventually turn towards her.

No one stopped Xia Yue. After all, she was only twenty-three, there was still plenty of time for her. The current focus lay on resolving the marriage issues of the four main targets.

"Grandpa, I promise, once I find someone suitable, I’ll bring her home and assure you I’ll find someone before I turn thirty-five," Xia Yu quickly outlined his position to cut off opportunities for further inquiries.

"And what about you three? You better pull yourself together, Xia Qing and Xia Xin. Secure the right ones now, and don’t end up with someone who has been passed over by others. Of course, if you want to remain single, I have no objections. But just don’t regret it later," Grandpa Xia glanced at the three remaining and said. He didn’t insist on them getting married, even if they choose not to, the family could afford to support them.

However, they shouldn’t have any regrets when they grow old.

Moreover, judging from their usual behavior, they didn’t seem to advocate singledom.

"Dad, Xia Qing wanted to explore a connection with Yan Mo from the Yan family, but you all forbade it. Otherwise, she might have already been seeing him," Song Qin complained.

"Hard truth: if Yan Mo doesn’t fancy Xia Qing, then you should give up that dream. Aiming high is one thing, but being realistic is also important," Grandpa Xia retorted unyieldingly.

"Grandpa, where do I fall short?" Xia Qing argued dissatisfiedly.

"You don’t fall short in any way, but compare yourself with Bai Yuran- what makes you stand out more? Yan Mo had spent some time with her, and yet, he doesn’t fancy her.

You haven’t had any interaction with him and you are just like Yuran. You think he would take an interest in you?" Grandpa Xia looked at his granddaughter, who was undoubtedly one of the best young ladies in Kyoto.

She had ambition and a sharp mind, but was unremarkably ordinary. For people like Yan Mo, she was pretty much an annoyance.

"I’ve never interacted with him, how would I know he’s not interested in me?" Xia Qing’s voice elevated with indignation, full of distaste for the assertion.

"Yan Mo is already interested in someone, and you’re not in the picture. It’s not even genuine affection on your part for him; you’re merely attracted to his family background. So, better give it up early. Look around and maybe you’ll find someone else. Don’t leave yourself empty-handed in the end by targeting the unattainable," Grandma Xia advised indifferently.

"He’s interested in someone else?" Grandpa Xia was surprised, realizing he hadn’t noticed himself.

"Yes, you just haven’t been paying close attention. People like him, once they fall for someone, won’t easily let go. Xia Qing, you should stop obsessing," assured Grandma Xia, nodding her head, looking at Xia Qing.

"Who is he interested in? Someone from the resort? Could they be better than me?" Xia Qing persisted stubbornly.

"To be blunt, apart from Xia Yue, every girl at that resort excels in her own field.

Maybe they don’t belong to the upper class or understand fine arts such as playing the piano or violin, but their professional skills are commendable," Grandpa Xia responded, nodding his head.

He had engaged in conversations with those girls from the resort area and found that their knowledge was substantial in their respective areas.

After listening to all this, Xia Qing got up and stormed off.

"Dad, Xia Qing is your granddaughter. How could you discourage her like that?" Song Qin voiced her disapproval, finding Grandpa Xia exceedingly harsh.
