Chapter 153: Return to the Nest
Xi Jinyan was stunned, looked at the screen shining in his hand, hesitated for a long time, and finally connected the phone.
"Hey."
The tone is faint, but it reveals a sense of indifference and alienation.
"Jinyan, I heard that you have returned to the United States?"
Xi Jinyan frowned, in fact, he had already thought of what Uncle Yang would tell him, but his speed was so fast, and the role of this watchdog was so good, it still made him feel a little unhappy.
"Well, there's something going on here in the U.S. branch, I'll deal with it, and I won't stay long." After finishing speaking, he asked again, "Uncle Yang told you that?" ”
"So that's the case, since you're back in the United States, why don't you go home, isn't your home more comfortable than outside? You haven't lived at home in years, and the big guys miss you. ”
After hearing this, Xi Jin's brows furrowed even deeper.
Is it true, as he says, that the big guys miss him? Didn't they want him to never go back for the rest of his life......
Why did he feel that when he heard his grandfather say such things, it was so fake......
Seeing that he didn't answer for a long time, Xi Lao said again: "Don't ask if it was your Uncle Yang who told me." Do you think that even if Uncle Yang didn't tell me about such a thing as your return to the United States, I wouldn't know? ”
Xi Jinyan was silent, that's right, grandpa is indeed right, with his power in the United States, he can't hide his return to the United States.
He just wanted to find an excuse to settle the account on Uncle Yang, thinking that as long as he didn't say it, his whereabouts would not be exposed.
After a long silence, Xi Lao finally sighed and wanted to change the topic. Thinking of the granddaughter-in-law he liked, his tone became gentle and doting.
"How are you doing? Is Qiqi okay? Did you come to the U.S. with you? ”
At the mention of Gu Qiqi, Xi Jinyan's heart suddenly softened, and his attitude of talking to his grandfather was no longer so stiff, and he returned lightly: "It's okay." She was fine, and I wanted her to come to the U.S. with me, but she didn't come because she had something to do at home. If Grandpa misses her, he will go back with me for a few days. ”
Hearing this, Xi Lao finally laughed "haha", seeing that his grandson, who had always been dull, became gushing at the mention of Gu Qiqi, he probably could understand the friendship between the two of them.
Originally, I was worried that this kid would be bad to Gu Qiqi, after all, Gu Qiqi was much younger than him, and the little girl needed to be coaxed, but his grandson was always serious and unsmiling, he was afraid that he would scare Gu Qiqi away.
However, it's okay, so far, it seems that the two of them should get along very well.
His hanging heart was also let go.
"Haha, if you have time, of course I want to go back to see her, I like this girl Qiqi, it is important, you don't let the family be wronged."
The corners of Xi Jinyan's mouth unconsciously rose slightly, thinking of Gu Qiqi's teeth and claws, he felt helpless.
Let her be wronged? That girl didn't turn against her?
But in his heart, he is very sure that he will not fail her in this life no matter what, and it is too late for him to hurt her, how can he live up to her again?
As long as...... She loves him too......
"Don't worry, grandpa, I'll let her live well." Xi Jinyan didn't realize that he was surprisingly firm when he said this.
Such firmness made Xi Lao couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Immediately, a smile hung on his face, and Xi Lao was extremely relieved, "Jin Yan, grandpa is relieved to hear you say such things." It seems that the Gu family's family affair is good, you and Qiqi are good and live happily...... That's it......"
Xi Lao choked up involuntarily as he spoke, he was happy for this grandson, and he was also distressed for him, but more of a relief.
Xi Jinyan heard this, and fell silent for a while.
The two were silent for a long time, Xi Lao didn't say to hang up the phone, Xi Jinyan respected this elder very much, and of course he didn't hang up the phone.
After a long time, Xi Lao reorganized his mind and asked gently: "By the way, what are you coming to the United States for this time?" Did something happen to the branch? Serious? ”
He understood that this grandson would not have come to the United States if it were not for something very important. He didn't like this place and didn't even want to set foot in half a step.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have lived alone in China for so many years and never came back.
Xi Jinyan frowned slightly, not knowing how to answer his question. He didn't want his grandfather to know about the branch, no matter how big or small the matter was, he didn't want him to interfere.
But if he said very firmly that there was nothing wrong, Grandpa would definitely not believe it. After so many years in the shopping mall, Xi Lao is not an ordinary character, and he will definitely not believe such an obvious lie.
After thinking for a while, Xi Jinyan said lightly: "Well, it was a little tricky at first, but now it's fine, I'll go back in a few days." ”
In this way, firstly, he told his grandfather that the company was fine now and that he didn't need to worry at all, and secondly, he admitted his purpose for coming to the United States and let him know that he was not lying.
Although he said this, after hearing this, Xi Lao was still silent for a while.
Of course, such a reason still can't deceive him!
"Jin Yan, if the company has any difficulties, you can just talk to your grandfather. In the United States, not to mention the big one, at least there is nothing in the business world that grandpa can't do, if you need family help......"
"Grandpa!" When Xi Jinyan heard him say this, his face suddenly darkened, and there was a trace of anger in his tone.
He started from scratch alone, what did he work hard for so many years? It is to get rid of the four big characters of "Xi family" engraved on him. And now in the United States, in front of the roots of the Xi family, if his grandfather helped him, then what is the point of his hard work and hard work over the years?
So before he could finish speaking, Xi Jinyan interrupted him coldly, "Thank you grandpa for your kindness, but don't worry, my company doesn't have any big problems, and it hasn't reached the point where grandpa needs relief." Grandpa called today, I am very happy, listening to your voice and knowing that grandpa is in good health now, so I can rest assured, if there is nothing wrong, I will hang up, there are still some things to deal with here. ”
After Xi Jinyan finished speaking, he was about to hang up the phone.
was stopped by Xi Lao in a hurry.
"Jinyan, you wait a while!" The voice was not loud, but it was full of majesty.
made Xi Jinyan involuntarily stop and hang up the phone, or put the phone to his ear, and said lightly: "Grandpa, what's the matter?" ”
Xi Lao was silent for a while, and then sighed helplessly, which made Xi Jinyan's heart move slightly.
Since he was a child, his grandfather has been his role model and his role model, and he rarely hears him sigh and sigh and sees him show any negative emotions.
But today, Grandpa looks so helpless.
"Jin Yan, Jin Nuo didn't mean it back then, you and he have been brothers for so many years, what can't you forgive?"
When Xi Jinyan heard that he was going to mention this matter, he frowned and subconsciously repulsed.
"Grandpa, I don't want to mention this. Besides, as you said, after so many years, it's good not to mention it. ”
After hearing this, Xi Lao sighed again. But knowing that Xi Jinyan's temperament was very similar to himself, he said that he didn't want to mention it again, if he insisted on saying it, he was afraid that it would cause him greater dissatisfaction.
At that time, I am afraid that even ten cows will not be able to pull him to the United States again.
Xi Jinyan is a tumbler, as long as someone is him, he will respond with the same hardness, but if you take him well and follow him soft, he will at least not attack you.
Anyway, he called today to keep him. Now that he has returned to the United States, at least he has passed the first hurdle in his heart, of course he must take advantage of this opportunity and let him live forever.
Besides, he also misses the eccentric granddaughter-in-law Gu Qiqi very much, if the two of them have been living in China, he can't see them immediately when he misses them.
When people are old, they always like to be accompanied by their families, and they always like to be reunited. Jinyan has been out for so many years, and now it's time to return to the nest......
