Chapter 12 Meeting the Parents

On Sunday morning, Xu Jinzhi was very sleepy and did not get up to have breakfast. It was already very late when he quickly got up, washed, packed his luggage, and then went straight to the airport.

"Mr. Xu, I packed some food. Would you like to have some?" Assistant Chen turned around and asked Xu Jinzhi.

At this time, Xu Jinzhi still had her eyes closed. She shook her head and ignored Assistant Chen, so Assistant Chen didn't say anything more.

It was not until Xu Jinzhi reached the airport, pushing his luggage all the way, that he finally sobered up a little. However, he still looked very haggard because he had not rested well.

Before boarding the plane, Xu Jinzhi received a call from Xu Zhen, asking her if she had missed the flight or anything like that, fearing that Xu Jinzhi would miss the plane.

After all, the two families are having dinner tonight, and she must not be late.

Xu Zhen was thinking about showing off in front of the Xie family, but he didn't think of being late on purpose. He would never do such a tasteless thing.

"Don't worry, we'll arrive around three in the afternoon, and I'll have to go home first then." Xu Jinzhi had already made arrangements. If it weren't for the two families having dinner together, she would definitely not have caught a plane back so early in the morning since she had been so busy for so many days.

"Okay, I'll wait for you at home." Xu Zhen said.

"Okay, let's do this for now." Xu Jinzhi didn't sleep well and had a headache. He said a few words casually and hung up the phone.

But after hanging up the phone, Xu Jinzhi looked at the phone again, and suddenly laughed. He was no longer like when he was talking to his old father on the phone just now.

Xu Jinzhi exited the call page, clicked into WeChat and sent a message to Xie Yanchuan.

I haven't seen Xie Yanchuan for several days, and I still miss him a little.

Assistant Chen, who was standing aside, watched the changes in his boss's expression, which had changed from being puzzled in the past two days to turning a blind eye now, because he already knew that his boss had fallen in love.

3pm.

Xu Jinzhi came out of the airport on time. The car was already waiting outside. After Xu Jinzhi got in, the car drove away.

Because it was the weekend, there was some traffic jam on the road, but they had agreed to meet at 7pm, so Xu Jinzhi was not very anxious.

When Xu Jinzhi returned home, he saw Xu Zhen in a suit, sitting upright on the sofa in the living room, with even his hair carefully groomed.

Xu Jinzhi couldn't help but tease: "People who don't know would think you are about to go on stage to attend the wedding."

"What nonsense!" Xu Zhen glared at Xu Jinzhi.

Xu Jinzhi couldn't help but laugh, "It's just a meal, why are you so nervous?"

"That's your lifelong event, how can I not be nervous?" Xu Zhen looked a little awkward.

He only has Xu Jinzhi as a child in his life, and it's not because he is unable to have other children or has no money to raise them, so what else could it be?
It’s because I love Xu Jinzhi!
She is his only daughter, and he really worries about her being wronged.

"Alright, alright, you look so ugly now, hurry up and clean yourself up." Xu Zhen said unhappily.

Xu Jinzhi didn't wear any makeup today and had been traveling for most of the day, so it was impossible for her to be ugly, but she did look a little haggard. She didn't refute Xu Zhen, but turned around and walked upstairs.

Xu Zhen looked at Xu Jinshang's back as he went upstairs and couldn't help but sigh.

I always feel that there is still a lot of time, but things are progressing step by step, and it is time to get engaged, and she may even leave this home at the end of the year. Thinking about Xu Zhen makes me sad. What should I do? I don’t even want to eat tonight!
Xu Jinzhi returned to the bedroom and took a shower before changing her clothes and putting on makeup. By the time she finished packing and went downstairs, an hour had passed.

"How is it? Not ugly anymore, right?" Xu Jinzhi deliberately stood in front of Xu Zhen and turned around, still remembering that Xu Zhen had said she was ugly before.

Xu Zhen was speechless, with a stern face and didn't want to talk.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's go." Xu Jinzhi smiled, then bent down to pull Xu Zhen up, took Xu Zhen's hand and walked out of the villa.

On the way to the hotel, Xu Jinzhi and Xu Zhen sat together in the back seat.

Xu Zhen was not in a good mood at the moment. In order to divert his attention, he specifically mentioned work matters to Xu Jinzhi.

Knowing that Xu Jinzhi's business trip went smoothly and all matters had been handled properly, Xu Zhen was very satisfied with Xu Jinzhi. He praised him generously: "You did a great job."

"Hmph!" Xu Jinzhi snorted arrogantly. Of course, he didn't even look at who she was.

Then Xu Jinzhi took out his cell phone to send a message to Xie Yanchuan. Xu Zhen on the side frowned again, looking very serious, and continued to sulk alone.

"We'll be there soon." said Xu Jinzhi.

Ten seconds later, Xu Jinzhi received a reply from Xie Yanchuan, "We'll be there soon."

At this time, Xie Yanchuan was still in the car, and there was an old man sitting next to him. Although he was already gray-haired, he still had his energy and spirit.

Old Master Xie glanced at his grandson slightly, and waited until he put down his phone before saying in a deep voice: "It's not too late for you to regret now. At most, you will lose my reputation."

Hearing this, Xie Yanchuan turned his head to look at his grandfather who was looking at him, "Grandpa, I never thought of regretting it."

"Speaking of which, it's Xie Sui'an's fault. This is your brother's responsibility. It has no chance of being yours. But he didn't even tell me and just talked to you directly."

"I don't care what your father said to you. I'm going to make it clear to you now. It's not too late for you to regret it now, but if you don't regret it, then from now on you must know your responsibilities."

Mr. Xie looked at his grandson with a slightly serious expression.

"I know." Xie Yanchuan responded softly, but his expression was very determined.

Although Xie Yanchuan didn't know why, there was a voice in his heart telling him that marrying Xu Jinzhi was the right choice and he would not regret it.

Seeing Xie Yanchuan answer so seriously, Mr. Xie knew that the matter was a done deal. He looked at Xie Yanchuan for a while before saying, "The girl from the Xu family is a good child."

Mr. Xie had met Xu Jinzhi before. To be honest, he liked the girl very much. He even thought that the girl would be more successful than Xie Linchuan in the future.

By some strange coincidence, she became the wife of his second grandson, and Mr. Xie felt it was a good thing.

The car stopped in front of the hotel. The doorman came over hurriedly to open the door. Xie Yanchuan got out first, then went around to the other side to help Mr. Xie get out.

Soon after, Xie Sui'an and Xie Linchuan's cars also arrived, and everyone got off the cars one after another. For today's occasion, all six members of the Xie family were present.

　My dear friends, please recommend me, give me a monthly ticket, and collect it!
