Chapter 310: 309. This girl is like me

Tang Shu seemed to remember something, "I recall that at the movie theater, you were there accompanying an elder. Could it have been Aunt Xia?"

"Who else could watch four movies in one day besides her?"

"...and me."

As soon as the words fell, the two exchanged glances and both laughed.

"Does Aunt Xia’s name contain the character ’瑕’?"

’瑕’ is the word for ’flaw’.

This character is rarely used alone, but why did they ask her to address the elder as ’Aunt Xia’? What was the reason?

In fact, Tang Shu had wanted to ask earlier but refrained from doing so directly out of respect for an elder’s name.

Hearing this, Jing Yu understood her curiosity.

"My mother’s name is Xie Wuxia, which means as flawless as white jade. My grandfather wished for her to be good at recognizing her faults and correcting them in time."

"But my mother felt the name Wuxia was too idealistic. People experience emotions and desires because they have imperfections and flaws. Therefore, she didn’t mind omitting the ’Wu’ when others addressed her."

Tang Shu nodded, gaining a deeper understanding of Mrs. Jing.

"Aunt Xia is a person of broad mind."

Daring to accept and confront one’s own deficiencies is a breadth of spirit and vision rarely seen in the world.

***

The Jing Family residence.

As soon as the younger generation left, Father Jing helplessly critiqued his wife.

"The first time you meet the young lady, could you restrain yourself a little?"

This time they were lucky it was Tang Shu. If it had been someone more sensitive, they might have been driven away by his wife’s chatter.

"Don’t worry, although I haven’t met your comrade-in-arms Tang, Xiao Shu definitely takes after him. She’s not the type of girl to go ’boo-hoo-hoo’ at everything."

Xie Wuxia was holding her phone, her eyes filled with nothing but curiosity, unwilling to spare a glance for her own husband.

This made Father Jing quite jealous.

"You’ve just returned from out of town, can’t you spend some time with me? What are you looking at on your phone?"

"I’m not simply browsing here; I’m checking updates about Xiao Shu. Weibo is such a great tool, the more you scroll, the better you know her."

"Wait a minute, didn’t you say Weibo is just an official medium for public statements and hardly represents one’s true feelings?"

Adding her on WeChat or calling her would be better.

"What do you know? Our son has been with Xiao Shu for so long; surely he knows her WeChat, right? Asking for it again would be superfluous."

"That seems to make some sense?"

"Of course. Although Weibo is official, Xiao Shu, as an actress, will definitely post about her work. I just want to catch up on her recent activities."

To understand someone, in addition to direct contact, you cannot overlook their work.

Father Jing was instantly defeated by his wife’s robust logic and returned to his seat to drink tea alone.

However...

Before the tea could even reach his mouth, he heard his wife, wearing headphones, burst into loud laughter.

"Oh my! The more I see of this girl, the more I like her. She’s quick-witted, just like me!"

"...."

"Hahahaha! This girl simply has to be part of our family! She must!"

"???"

Where on earth did that come from???

***

In the neighboring villa area.

The two stood in front of the gate, examining the surroundings for a while before Jing Yu entered the code.

With a "ding—" sound, the electronic gate slowly opened, revealing the view inside.

As soon as Tang Shu stepped in, she felt the difference.
