Even after the driver had dropped Huo Yueze off at home and Huo Xiaozheng and Huo Guining had returned to Panlong Bay, Huo Guining was still basking in the joy of having "a young man coming of age in the family."

Huo Xiaozheng's mood, which had been dampened by her constant chatter on the way home, had improved considerably.

After washing up, Huo Xiaozheng pinned her down on her small bed and gave her a serious lesson on "no early dating."

"Liking someone is a process of two different people gradually being attracted to each other. A healthy romantic relationship should make both people become better versions of themselves."

Huo Guining had read plenty of novels in her past life, otherwise she wouldn't have transmigrated into this book.

At this moment, listening to Huo Xiaozheng's rambling, she found it somewhat amusing.

"Dad, do you think your previous relationship with Aunt Qin was healthy?"

Huo Xiaozheng fell silent for a moment before replying, "No, it wasn't."

"Don't worry, I won't follow in your footsteps," Huo Guining said casually, patting her old father's shoulder.

Huo Xiaozheng: ...

However, Huo Guining's nonchalant attitude actually put Huo Xiaozheng's mind at ease.

At least he didn't have to worry about Ning Ning being deceived by a scoundrel in the future.

As for other matters, he didn't care.

After this incident, Huo Yueze had originally wanted to take Ning Ning along for the graduation trip, but Huo Xiaozheng ruthlessly refused.

He didn't want Huo Guining to be influenced too early by the blossoming feelings of adolescent boys and girls.

Although Huo Yueze had tried his best to explain that his relationship with that girl wasn't what Huo Xiaozheng imagined, Huo Xiaozheng still wouldn't budge.

The reason for his refusal wasn't just because he didn't trust Huo Yueze, but also because Huo Guining had been very busy lately.

She was due to start school in September.

Huo Xiaozheng appeared even more nervous than Huo Guining.

Unbeknownst to Huo Guining, Huo Xiaozheng was even selecting her future classmates.

"This boy looks like trouble, no."

"This girl is not bad, quiet and well-behaved, a good match for Ning Ning."

"Is this the Shen Family's youngest grandson? Put him in the next class, don't let him bother Ning Ning."

Xi Chuan held back as long as he could, but finally couldn't resist reminding him with a strained smile, "Mr. Huo, we only invested in a building for Miss Ning's school. The Shen Family are the actual board members."

Huo Xiaozheng paused his search: "Oh, is that so?"

"Yes, it is," Xi Chuan replied with a polite smile.

The next day, Huo Xiaozheng strode into the office full of vigor and handed Xi Chuan a stack of documents.

"I've donated another building to Ning Ning's school. Go through the list of children I mentioned yesterday again."

Xi Chuan: ...

Huo Guining herself was very calm about the whole situation.

She worked from nine to five, and in her spare time, she painted, swam, and went shopping.
