Wu Shengnan's father, sitting beside them, heard the two young people struggling to hold their tongues and coughed softly.
"Dad, are you feeling unwell?"
As expected, Wu Shengnan stopped her banter with Du Heng and turned her attention to her elderly father.
Wu Shengnan's father gave his daughter a speechless look, then shifted his gaze to Du Heng. "Don't fret about the distant future. Focus on doing the work at hand diligently, and what's meant to be yours will eventually be yours."
Du Heng quickly agreed.
"Alright, let's talk about the two of you," Wu Shengnan's father said, changing the subject to the purpose of their meeting.
"I heard from Nannan that you bought a house?"
Yes, a classmate introduced it to us. It's a new house. Du Heng felt a little apprehensive, fearing his actions might upset his father-in-law, who had previously advised him against buying a house.
"Didn't you say last time you weren't going to buy one? What made you change your mind?"
