Perhaps because of the presence of Old Man Xiao, Zhao Xuan did not immediately ask her husband what was going on with the woman, but smiled as if she didn't know.

And even if Xiao Chen didn't understand these things anymore, he could more or less detect that something was wrong from the current atmosphere, looked at his father with an indifferent look, then looked at his mother who was still gentle, and then turned his head to look at the woman who suddenly appeared, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.

He remembered that there was no one else around his father except his mother, and even if it was his mother, his father was very cold, he couldn't understand it when he was a child, and then when he grew up, he knew that this was a sign of not liking a person.

But since my father doesn't like my mother, why did he marry him in the first place? Since you are married, you should not be treated like this, otherwise it is better not to marry.

"Brother, is that woman Dad's assistant?" In addition to this statement, he can't come up with anything else to deceive himself, even if his father is not at home all the year round, he doesn't want the family to be discordant, and everyone wants the family to be reunited.

Xiao Yao's face was tense the whole time, and when he heard his brother ask like this, he didn't think about anything else, just shook his head lightly, and said in a low voice: "No, Ah Chen, you don't care about these things, also, take care of her mood, with me here, I will deal with it." ”

In Mr. Wolf's heart, even if he decided that it was Zhao Xuan, his cousin, who was sorry for his mother, when an outsider who had nothing to do with him appeared, he would still choose to stand on Zhao Xuan's side, and the past grievances could be ignored for the time being.

His expression was slightly indifferent, and there was a look of displeasure between his eyebrows, and when he turned to look at the woman, he saw his father looking up at him, with a defensive attitude of "you dare to try it indiscriminately".

Xiao Yao smiled softly, his voice was soft and a little dull, his eyes skipped over Father Xiao and looked at the woman, at this time, Old Man Xiao had already gone upstairs to rest because of his old age and drowsiness, and there were only five of them left for a while.

"You guys go and rest first, it's not too early." He said softly, and then glanced at Xiao Chen behind him, signaling him to take Zhao Xuan back quickly, there was no need for her to be involved in the affairs here.

Although Xiao Chen was a little reluctant in his heart, for the sake of his mother, he still nodded, looked back at his mother, his eyes became softer and softer, and said, "Mom, is there any Lantern Festival in the kitchen?" Why don't we go in and have a look? ”

Judging from the current situation, it is definitely impossible to let his mother go back to rest, but it will still work if you find a better reason to support her.

Zhao Xuan's eyes suddenly became a little complicated, and when she heard her son suddenly say this, she knew in her heart that this was to break her apart, maybe it was because some words were inappropriate for her to hear, right?

She is a housewife who has no opinions, and when she was young, she also admired her current husband, but at that time her cousin had been engaged to him, so she had to bury that love secretly in her heart, and after her cousin disappeared, she suddenly didn't want to endure it anymore, so she and him are now.

But after so many years, after such a long period of cold treatment, she suddenly figured out that maybe no matter who appeared next to him, that person would not be her anyway, he would never like her, even if she was protected as a relative, it was an unattainable dream.

"Okay, let's go." Zhao Xuan withdrew the gaze that fell on her husband, and when she turned around, the afterglow swept over the woman, the corners of her mouth seemed to be raised, as if she was very proud, her heart was slightly desolate, but she still left without saying anything, and she didn't even look at Xiao Chen beside her.

Xiao Chen saw that his mother suddenly became so depressed, in fact, he didn't feel very good, he looked up at the old brother who was still indifferent, lowered his head and left without saying a word.

When the two of them left one after the other, Daddy Xiao's disguised face finally didn't pretend anymore, coughed lightly, glanced at the woman who was still here and didn't know how to avoid, and said in a deep voice: "You also go out first, remember what I told you before." ”

At this moment, Daddy Xiao is not the same type of appearance as the one he saw before, the momentum around him is strong, and there is a spirit of not being angry and arrogant, which makes the woman feel shocked, and she hurriedly laughs and goes out.

Finally, only their father and son were left in the courtyard, Xiao Yao's thin lips that had been pursed were slightly loosened, and he looked at the dark night with his hands in his pockets, and only turned around after a long time, looked at him with slightly cold eyes, and asked in a low voice: "All these years have passed, why do you want to come back?" ”

Why don't you just stay abroad all the time? It is enough to send them a few emails a year to tell them that he is safe, and there is no need to come back, and coming back will only make the family less and more unharmonious.

"This is my home, and you're trying to kick me out of this house?"

Father Xiao laughed coldly, he didn't expect his son to have such thoughts, thinking that if he didn't go home for many years, there would be no place for him here?

Sure enough, he was born from the womb of his ex-wife, and he has exactly the same temperament as her, and even his attitude towards people is the same, even more indifferent than her.

Father Xiao rubbed his forehead with a slight headache, and leaned against the thick osmanthus tree in the yard, looking lazy and tired.

"I just think, can I do it?" Xiao Yao didn't answer the rhetorical question, he didn't even raise his eyelids, and he didn't bother to look at what kind of expression his father was like at the moment, maybe it wouldn't be what he wanted to see.

He walked a few steps forward until he stopped in front of a flower full of daisies, and glanced at the flowers at his feet, pale yellow, with a young light white in the middle, a little different from the daisies outside, but only more eye-catching.

To be honest, he really didn't want his father to return to China, because as soon as he came back, the whole family would no longer have the laughter of the past, and it would become silent and dull because of this, which was not what he wanted to see.

"Yes, even if you want to kick me out of this house, you don't have the qualifications to kick me out of the house." Daddy Xiao suddenly smiled again, but there seemed to be some sadness in his eyes, he was the heir of the Xiao Group in the first place, as long as he did not transfer the shares and there were no accidents, then the entire Xiao Group would fall into his pocket.

Eligibility? Xiao Yao's eyes drooped, and he chuckled in his heart again, it's just that he didn't want his father to be out of the game so early, otherwise, where would it be his turn to yell at him here?

He didn't answer, Daddy Xiao didn't speak again, for a while, the two looked at each other relatively wordlessly, the temperature around them was dropping little by little, and even the few fireflies that could still be seen didn't know whether to rest or fly elsewhere at the moment.

"I won't marry the Lin family according to your wishes, believe me, now you can't ask me to do anything anymore." I don't know how long it has been, Xiao Yao didn't wait for his father's words, so he took the initiative to talk about another topic, but he didn't say a word about the woman that his father brought back.

Before he was a child, he received an email, which was sent by his father from someone else's mailbox, the content was nothing more than words that made him must marry the Lin family, but he was unwilling, and Huo Yan would not agree, so such a marriage was meaningless at all.

Father Xiao didn't answer his words immediately, but made a very serious appearance, and said after a while: "If you don't want to marry the Lin family, then you just want to marry someone from the Lian family or the Jin family?" ”

In short, no matter which family you marry, you must be useful to their Xiao family, otherwise what will you do when you marry back? What about putting it as an ornament?

"Why can it only be these three families? Why should I listen to you? Xiao Yao raised his head and sneered, his eyes glanced at Father Xiao, his eyes were obviously disagreeing, and even felt a little ridiculous.

Who does he think he is? Is it the Jade Emperor or the Buddha?

And no matter which one it is, it's all a virtual character, and it doesn't exist.

"Why?" Father Xiao's brows furrowed unconsciously, and his face looked at him with a very unpleasant face, and after looking at him for a while to make sure that he was not joking, he squinted his eyes and said with a sneer: "Just because you are my son, you are the next successor of our Xiao family!" Why else do you need? ”

As a descendant and heir of a large business, while enjoying the quality of life brought by the family business, it is also necessary to take on part of the responsibility, no one can enjoy the return forever without paying, and there is no such good thing in the world!

"Who do you think you are? Yes? Didn't I take on it? Daddy Xiao continued to roar, as if he wanted to vent all the loneliness and suffering he had suffered outside over the years, seeing that his son was still standing there with his mouth pursed and neither refuting nor compromising, the whole person seemed to have suddenly aged many years, and his voice was lowered, and he sighed: "You also know that I have been staying abroad all these years and have not come back, but why would I rather stay abroad than go home, do you know?" Ah Yao, sometimes you can't just know how to enjoy it, you also need to pay. ”

If he could, he could persecute his son like this? Can you disregard your son's happiness so much, and force him to do something he doesn't want to do?

The hearts of parents all over the world are actually the same, but sometimes there will be helplessness, and not every time it can be smooth sailing.

Xiao Yao still didn't answer, and Daddy Xiao didn't say anything when he saw him like this, and he didn't hope to see him at this time, so he said lightly, "Think about it yourself", and then left.
