Xiang Yuan furiously pulled out his phone and dialed his father, Xiang Jingsheng.
"Dad! I really don't understand why you recommended Huo Danru as the marriage counseling expert to me!"
Despite his son's outburst, Xiang Jingsheng's voice remained calm and steady: "Xiang Yuan, who taught you that you can speak to your father in such a tone? Where is your family upbringing? Do you want to hear others say it's the father's fault for not teaching?"
His father's words felt like a bucket of cold water, pouring mercilessly over Xiang Yuan, extinguishing his anger.
He deflated and felt wronged, squatting by the roadside clutching his phone tightly.
"Dad… But Dad, can't you tell me why you recommended Huo Danru?"
Xiang Jingsheng's tone remained steady as he said, "Firstly, because Huo Danru is a seasoned expert in the field. Secondly, she is Tang Mingyi's ex-wife."
Xiang Yuan was taken aback: "You mean she's actually Tang Yanxi's mother?"
