The Xue family, which has always been deserted, has become lively because of Xue Rin's return, Xue Huaiyuan has not worked until late at night in recent days to return home, not only that, but he also canceled all business trips, just want to spend more time with this son who has not seen him for several years.

Qi Hang and Sister-in-law Liu, who has been doing things for the family all year round, were busy in the kitchen, preparing a rare family dinner, and Xue Huaiyuan sat in a rocking chair in the living room, leisurely watching the financial channel.

Xue Rin nestled on the sofa and fiddled with his mobile phone, communicating with the helicopter pilot about the details of tomorrow's voyage, and occasionally glancing up at the contents of the financial report.

"Dad, I'm going out tomorrow and I'll be back in the evening. Xue Rin said casually.

"Well, you just returned to China not long ago, and you should meet your friends, let Lao Yu drive you. Xue Huaiyuan didn't think much about it, and still shook the rocking chair easily.

"I'm going to sea tomorrow, and I have to ask Lao Yu to send me to the port. ”

Xue Rin knew that as long as there was Lao Yu, his every move would be known by his family sooner or later, so he simply explained it directly.

When Xue Huaiyuan heard this, he immediately straightened up, turned down the sound of the TV, and looked at Xue Rin incredulously.

"You're going to sea again, you've just picked up a life from the sea, aren't you afraid?"

Xue Rin got up and walked in front of Xue Huaiyuan and sat on the edge of the marble coffee table.

"Dad, I rented a helicopter, and I'm going to go to the island where I was rescued tomorrow, I have something important left there, I really have to go, if I don't finish this, I'm really upset. ”

"Since you are determined to go, I will not stop you, but if you bring more people to accompany you, I can rest assured, tomorrow I will give Ah Yuan leave, let him and Lao Yu go with you......" Xue Huaiyuan knew that his son's personality had been like this since he was a child, and the decision could not be changed, so he would no longer obstruct it.

"Dad, I really don't need to, I have this personal matter, don't bother others. ”

"Huaiyuan, Arin is such a big person, you just let him do it himself. ”

Qi Hang walked in with a plate of fruit, Xue Rin immediately got up and took the initiative to take the plate, and forked a piece of pineapple from the plate and sent it to Xue Huaiyuan.

Xue Huaiyuan glanced at the pineapple, a little incredulous, and saw Xue Rin patiently holding a fork waiting for him to open his mouth, so he hesitantly bit the pineapple into his mouth.

While chewing, he glanced at Qi Hang, who was smiling with his lips, as if to say to her: "This kid is out of breath, and he knows how to honor his father." ”

"Rin, finish what you have to do tomorrow with peace of mind, your dad is now bitten by a snake, and he is afraid of the well rope for ten years, so if you are too worried, you can do it according to your plan. Qi Hang patted Xue Rin's back and gave a positive look.

"Thank you, Aunt Qi, then I'll go upstairs to clean up my things first, and call me when the meal is ready." ”

After Xue Rin finished speaking, he nodded happily to Xue Huaiyuan, and then went upstairs and went back to his room.

Qi Hang casually picked up the fork and fed Xue Huaiyuan another piece of pineapple, thought for a while and muttered, "What happened?

"You say...... Ahem...... Ahem"

Xue Huaiyuan was just about to speak, he was choked by the juice of the pineapple and coughed, he wanted to straighten up, but the curve of the recliner was extremely curved, and he couldn't struggle for a long time.

Qi Hang hurriedly helped Xue Huaiyuan sit up, feeling that she couldn't cry or laugh, she patted him on the back and said angrily: "Don't talk! I can't even understand a piece of fruit!"

----

The next evening, as soon as Xue Huaiyuan, who had returned home from work, stepped into the yard when he heard a dog barking and the happy laughter of women coming from the backyard.

He asked Lao Yu who was following him suspiciously, "Old Yu, did Ah Rin say anything when you sent him to the port this morning?"

"Dong Xue, Rin seems to be in a good mood, but he didn't reveal anything to me. ”

Lao Yu has driven a car for Xue Huaiyuan for nearly twenty years, and he has almost watched Xue Rin grow up, and it is rare to see that he no longer looks cynical, and his heart is really a lot more relaxed.

Ah Yuan, who was carrying the bag in the back, came up and whispered in Lao Yu's ear: "Dad, did you say that Brother Ah Rin lost his memory when he was in a coma? Why did he suddenly become so easy to get along with when he was so close to people before? When he saw me this morning, he took the initiative to say that he would go to play ball with Brother Gong Yan another day!"

"Don't talk nonsense! Ah Rin is a person who has experienced life and death, how can he be like you, stupid!" Lao Yu hurriedly covered Ah Yuan's mouth with his hand and told him not to talk nonsense.

Xue Huaiyuan walked to the backyard, and as soon as his feet stepped on the grass, a big reddish-brown dog pounced on him, he didn't stand firmly, and almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, Ayuan helped him in time.

"This, this, where did the dog come from?" Xue Huaiyuan was shocked.

"Pengpeng, sit, this is my dad!, it's not big, it's not small!" shouted Xue Rin, who was standing in the distance.

The excited Pengpeng heard Xue Rin's command and immediately squatted on the grass, but his tail couldn't help but flick wildly, it opened its mouth wide and panted, and its big black bean-like eyes stared at Xue Huaiyuan expectantly.

"Brother Rin, you bought this dog?"

Ah Yuan saw that this big dog was very cute, and couldn't help but reach out to touch its head, Pengpeng was touched by Ah Yuan and enjoyed it very much, and squinted and lowered his head tamely.

"You can't buy this dog in the world, I picked it up from the island. Xue Rin said and walked towards Xue Huaiyuan.

Xue Huaiyuan finally understood Xue Rin's purpose of going to sea, "It's been a long time, you're just here to pick it up!"

"And it!" Qi Hang, who was sitting on a rattan chair in the courtyard, stood up.

Xue Huaiyuan looked at it and saw that Qi Hang was holding a spotted kitten in his arms, squinting and pretending to sleep.

"Dad, when I was on the island, thanks to Puffy, if it weren't for it, I would have starved to death, that kitten is called Dingman, its mother died shortly after birth, I adopted it, after all, they are comrades-in-arms who have suffered together, and now that I am back, I naturally have to let them follow me to eat and drink spicy food. Xue Rin said and touched his fluffy head fiercely.

"My son has not returned to China in the past few years, and as soon as he returns to China, he will give me a few big surprises one after another, so let's raise it! Qi Hang, you can't take care of one or the other, they are full, your husband and I are hungry!" Xue Huaiyuan saw that Qi Hang kept lowering his head and stroking the kitten in his arms, and couldn't help but remind.

"Sister-in-law Liu has already cooked the meal, just wait for you men to come back! Let's go! Let's eat!" Qi Hang said and put Ding Man on the grass and walked towards the restaurant with everyone.

The courtyard fell into peace, but Xue Rin stood in place, the night sky was clear and flawless tonight, and the stars in the sky were exceptionally shining, but he always felt that something was missing.

He squatted down, stroked the long hair on his back, and while he was not paying attention, Ding Man jumped onto his back at once, hooking his clothes with his little paws and climbing up little by little.

Looking at her big fluffy eyes, Xue Rin whispered, "You miss her too, right?"
