Chapter 312 I need to investigate this person first.
"Laidi! Get over here right now! I have something to ask you!"
Zhao Yuan stood at the kitchen doorway, shouting at the top of his lungs. His voice was full of anger and dissatisfaction, as if he was about to explode at any moment.
Hearing her father's roar, Zhao Zhaodi, who was helping in the kitchen, stopped what she was doing and looked up at her younger sister Zhao Laidi with a gloating look, as if she was waiting to see a good show.
At this moment, Zhao Laidi's heart skipped a beat, and she thought to herself, "This is bad," because just from her father's tone, she knew that nothing good was coming her way.
So she quickly turned to look at her mother, Lin Fangfang, with a pitiful and slightly panicked look in her eyes, signaling for help.
However, Lin Fangfang simply shook her head helplessly, a look of resignation on her face, and said softly:
"Honey, judging from the looks of it, you must have done something to upset your dad like this. There's nothing I can do to help you. You should go over and explain it to him yourself."
After receiving her mother's response, Zhao Laidi was still uneasy, but she had no choice but to bite the bullet and, like a frightened little rabbit, slowly and cautiously walk towards the main room.
Upon entering the main room, he saw Zhao Yuan sitting on the sofa with a dark face, his expression ashen, his eyes blazing as he stared straight at him.
Seeing her father like this, Zhao Laidi was so nervous that she didn't dare to breathe, and her legs began to tremble slightly involuntarily.
"sit down!"
Zhao Yuan coldly gave the order and pointed to the sofa opposite him.
Upon hearing the sound, Zhao Laidi hurriedly walked over, trembling, and carefully sat down next to the sofa. Her whole body was tense, and her hands were placed awkwardly on her knees.
"Tell me honestly what exactly happened with that boy?"
Zhao Yuan, with a stern face, questioned him seriously.
Zhao Laidi kept her head down, never daring to look her father in the eye, and only mumbled a soft reply:
"They're really just ordinary classmates."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Zhao Yuan suddenly slammed his hand on the coffee table in front of him, causing the teacups on it to jump a few times.
At the same time, he roared furiously:
"Bullshit! Would ordinary classmates hold hands in public? Do you think I'm blind?"
Zhao Yuan's sudden slap startled Zhao Laidi. She jumped up from her seat as if she had been electrocuted, her face turning deathly pale, her lips trembling uncontrollably, and she couldn't utter a single word.
Lin Fangfang was busy cooking in the kitchen, with the fire burning brightly in the pot.
Suddenly, a commotion came from the main room. Her heart tightened, she quickly turned off the stove and hurried towards the main room.
Zhao Yuan stood there with an angry expression, while his daughter Zhao Lai Di lowered her head, looking aggrieved.
"Brother Yuan, why are you so fierce! What did Lai Di do to make you angry?"
Lin Fangfang asked with concern.
Zhao Yuan glared fiercely at Zhao Laidi and said angrily:
Let her say it herself!
Zhao Laidi raised her head, her eyes darting away, and muttered softly:
"It's just holding hands with a male classmate... I'm 18 years old and in college, why are you being so strict?"
Despite her efforts to express dissatisfaction and resistance, her voice grew softer and softer until it was almost as faint as a mosquito's buzz.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yuan became even angrier. He pointed at Zhao Laidi and said sternly:
"Just holding hands? You shameless girl! You've got some nerve! You're only a freshman, just turned 18. Your priority right now is to study hard!"
Hearing her father's words, Zhao Laidi mustered some courage and retorted:
"But I'm 18 and I'm an adult. Dating won't affect my studies."
However, Zhao Yuan remained unmoved and responded with a serious expression:
"Who says it won't affect your studies? You're only 18. Your body and mind aren't fully mature yet. If you don't focus on your studies now, you'll definitely regret it later!"
"Dad, I just want to have a relationship! It doesn't mean I have to get married right away. Look, I'm 18 years old this year, and my body is fully developed in every way. Besides, weren't you the same way back then? You and Mom got married and had my sister when you were 17, so why are you so strongly against me having a relationship when I'm just 18?"
Zhao Laidi glared angrily, hands on her hips, staring back defiantly at her father. She felt she was absolutely right and had to say everything she was thinking.
Speechless after hearing his daughter's words, Zhao Yuan opened his mouth but found himself unable to find the right words to refute her.
He frowned, a hint of helplessness and embarrassment on his face.
Just then, Lin Fangfang, who was standing nearby, quickly came over to smooth things over:
“Oh, Yuan-ge, you really need to be a little more open-minded. The kids are all grown up now, and we parents need to learn to let go a little. Lai-di is 18 now, it's perfectly normal for her to date, as long as they know their limits and don't do anything too outrageous. You should try to communicate with your kids more calmly and patiently, instead of always opposing them, otherwise it will only make the relationship between father and daughter more and more tense.”
After saying that, Lin Fangfang gently patted Zhao Yuan's shoulder to comfort him, then turned and walked towards the kitchen to continue making dinner.
Zhao Yuan was silent for a moment, then sighed and said:
"Laidi, Dad doesn't mean to make things difficult for you. Times have changed. I hope you can focus on your studies and have more choices in the future. I'm afraid you'll regret it if you fall in love too early."
Upon hearing this, Lai Di's eyes reddened, and she whispered:
"Dad, I know you mean well, but I really can balance dating and studying."
Looking at his daughter's stubborn expression, Zhao Yuan said gently:
"Then you promise your grades won't drop."
Lai Di nodded hurriedly.
"Dad, I promise!"
Zhao Yuan then added:
"Also, you need to maintain boundaries in your relationship and not cross them. Girls need to respect themselves before others will love them."
Lai Di stopped crying and started laughing.
"Thank you, Dad. We'll definitely be careful."
“Laidi, tell me that kid’s name and address. I need to investigate him first. If he has questionable values and a complicated family background, and your mother and I disagree with him, I hope you can stop him in time. I hope you can do that.”
Zhao Yuan said.
"Well, if this person has character flaws, I promise to break up with them immediately."
Zhao Lai Di said with a smile.
