It was just as well. If his son left now, he might bump into Miao Miao and have a chat with her.
He had already reminded his son of whatever he had to as a father.
If she really moved out and found a suitable man, his son would really stand no chance at all.
Old Zhai understood Miao Jing's temper. If she met a suitable man, she would definitely give up on the man she liked just to be with a suitable man.
Then, it didn't matter what his son thought or felt anymore.
Sigh. What was the point of having a son? He had to worry about everything. No wonder his wife liked daughters more. Look how little they had to worry about Miao Miao.
Old Zhai was hoping that his son would have a chance encounter with Miao Jing and be able to strike a conversation with her once he left the study.
With more interaction, there would be a greater chance of them falling for each other.
