Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Yan Xiaoxi, "Before that, you can’t have never had a girlfriend, right?"

Jin Bo looked at Yan Xiaoxi. "You think I had time?"

Yan Xiaoxi, "How am I supposed to know whether you had time or not."

Jin Bo thought back over the first half of his life, his voice low and magnetic. "Before twenty-five I was always in the army, never had the mind for that kind of thing, I was focused on my career."

He lowered his head to look at Yan Xiaoxi.

Yan Xiaoxi listened carefully.

Jin Bo, "After that I went on a mission and almost lost my life, got infected with a virus."

Yan Xiaoxi was stunned. So that’s how it was!

He’d gone on a mission, so the fighter jet crash must’ve been fake?

Jin Bo looked at Yan Xiaoxi. "If I really have to say I had a girlfriend, then I guess it was the virus. We were together seven or eight years, and we only broke up a little over a year ago."

Yan Xiaoxi didn’t speak, but she felt something different inside.

So that means she’s his first love?

Very quickly, she realized she was being stupid!

Even if he never had a girlfriend, that doesn’t mean she’s his first love.

At his age, he’s definitely had crushes; if he hadn’t, that’d be weird.

Besides, she’d had them too. That part she didn’t mind.

Jin Bo looked at Yan Xiaoxi. "Anything else you want to ask?"

Yan Xiaoxi looked at Jin Bo. "No."

She paused, then looked at Jin Bo. "Don’t you want to ask me anything?"

Jin Bo looked at Yan Xiaoxi. "I’m not that insecure."

Yan Xiaoxi, "...!"

This isn’t insecurity, this is arrogance, okay?

Jin Bo spoke seriously. "If I get serious, even a hundred Lu Yis wouldn’t be my match, let alone one."

Yan Xiaoxi, "..."

This old man, this isn’t just arrogance anymore, it’s... it’s...

She thought for a long time and couldn’t find a suitable word.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them were already downstairs.

Jin Bo held Yan Xiaoxi’s hand, went upstairs, and ran into quite a few former comrades. He greeted them politely.

Everyone asked with concern, "Brought your girlfriend to see your dad?"

Jin Bo, "Yup."

He took the initiative to clasp Yan Xiaoxi’s hand.

Only then did Yan Xiaoxi realize this wasn’t just a simple meal!

Still, she kept a smile on her face and greeted everyone. It wasn’t until she entered Huo Qichang’s quarters that she couldn’t help snapping, "You did that on purpose?"

Jin Bo pressed her against the door. "It’s not like we’re some shameful secret. What’s the problem?"

Hearing that, Yan Xiaoxi didn’t say anything more.

Jin Bo, "Grandpa’s birthday is coming up. I’ll take you with me then."

Yan Xiaoxi tensed up as soon as she heard that. "I’m not going."

Jin Bo bit her neck. "You’re going. If you don’t, Grandpa might just come to the base to see you himself."

Yan Xiaoxi, "..."

Does he have to be this enthusiastic, seriously?

She looked at Jin Bo. "Does the old man think it was really hard work ’marrying’ you off?"

Jin Bo let out a "Hmm~?" and looked at Yan Xiaoxi, then kissed her.

Yan Xiaoxi, "Ow! You old man!"

No matter what she did, she couldn’t push him off.

"I’m going to cook. Watch some TV on the sofa for a bit."

Yan Xiaoxi, "Okay."

Jin Bo opened the fridge. Inside were still some things his mother had brought last time, and some fresh groceries old Huo had bought. Judging by it, once his mother left, old Huo had never cooked again.

Perfect. He’d make use of them today.

In the living room, Yan Xiaoxi sat down on the sofa. When she turned around she saw the photo frame on the wall behind the sofa. She stood up and looked closely.

One of them was a family portrait.
