Chapter 87 Chapter 87(1/3)
A week later, Xie Jin arrived in K City.
This time it was Xie Yan who went to pick up Xie Jin.
After receiving Xie Jin, Xie Yan first took him to the new house to have a look.
After going around, Xie Jin was full of dissatisfaction, but it could still be seen that he was quite satisfied with the villa Gu Yuchen bought and the decoration of the villa.
It can be seen at a glance that Gu Yuchen put a lot of thought into this villa.
Xie Jin also knew Xie Yan well and knew that this villa was designed according to Xie Yan's preferences. He could see this from the undisguised joy on Xie Yan's face.
So at this point, Xie Jin has nothing to say to Gu Yuchen.
He came here a week early this time because he wanted to see what Xie Yan still needed and help Xie Yan buy some.
After looking around, I realized that Gu Yuchen had thought very carefully and had purchased all the things that needed to be purchased without giving Xie Jin a chance to add anything.
Does Xie Jin really have no chance?
He looked at the huge underground garage of the new villa and pondered for a long time.
The next day, there were three more luxury cars in the empty underground garage.
After Xie Yan saw it, he looked up to the sky speechlessly.
It’s hard to have an empty garage, but it’s filled up in the blink of an eye.
Along with the three luxury cars, Xie Yan also owns two villas that are the most popular real estate projects in K city recently.
You don't need to think about Xie Yan to know who gave these two villas.
He once again felt Rufang's father's love and Ruche's brother's love.

In the blink of an eye, the time came to November 14th, the day before Gu Yuchen and Xie Yan held their housewarming banquet.
There are dedicated personnel in charge of the wedding banquet, so Xie Yan and Gu Yuchen don't have to worry about it at all. However, many guests came from other places that day, and as the hosts, Xie Yan and Gu Yuchen had to be responsible for the reception.
The Royal View Hotel is a five-star hotel in City K. The wedding banquet of Gu Yuchen and Xie Yan on the 15th was held in the banquet hall of this hotel, and the guests who came from all over the country to attend the wedding banquet were all arranged in the guest rooms of the hotel.
Among the guests Xie Yan hosted at the banquet were classmates from the university and former members of the outing club.
Although he rarely contacted them after graduation, these classmates and members of the same club would inform Xie Yan if there was any happy event after graduation.
Already.
This time he was hosting a housewarming banquet. Following the principle of reciprocity, he naturally wanted to inform these classmates.
As for whether they come or not, Xie Yan doesn't force it.
But there is one person that Xie Yan must invite, and that is Brother Fei, who took great care of Xie Yan during college.
Fei Ge received Xie Yan's invitation and agreed to come.
Xie Yan personally went to pick up Fei Ge at the high-speed rail station.
Brother Fei was previously entrusted by Xie Jin to take care of Xie Yan when he was in college. He knew Xie Yan's identity to some extent, and he didn't show any surprise when Xie Yan sent him to a suite in the most luxurious hotel in K city.
What surprised him was Xie Yan's change.
Although he has kept in touch with Xie Yan in the past few years, he rarely meets Xie Yan because he is too busy with work. Therefore, the impression of Xie Yan in his mind is still that of his college days: he is incompatible with the whole world, although he does not resist the crowd.
, but they don’t take the initiative to integrate, as if they don’t care about anything.
But now that he saw Xie Yan again, Fei Ge could clearly feel the changes in Xie Yan.
How to describe this change?
Brother Fei thought for a while but couldn't find the adjective, but he just felt that Xie Yan fell from the floating state and reintegrated into the world.
When I laugh, it’s not because I want to laugh, but because I want to laugh inadvertently.
Brother Fei didn't know what the reason for Xie Yan's change was, but he couldn't help but think of the invitation and the other name closely next to Xie Yan's name - Gu Yuchen.
It just so happened that Xie Yan also mentioned Gu Yuchen at this moment.
Xie Yan invited Brother Fei into the guest room and asked him, "Brother Fei, how many days can you stay in K City this time?"
"I took three days off and will go back the day after tomorrow." Fei Ge put down his luggage, "What's wrong?"
"My man wants to see you," Xie Yan said, "Let's have a meal together before you go back."
The reason why Gu Yuchen wanted to see Fei Ge was very simple. He wanted to thank Fei Ge for taking care of Xie Yan during his college years. Without Fei Ge, Xie Yan would have been even more lonely and alienated from the world during his college years.
Even Xie Yan himself didn't realize that when he mentioned Gu Yuchen, his eyes were bright and the corners of his mouth were raised unconsciously.
This reaction further confirmed Fei Ge's guess that Gu Yuchen had the most credit for Xie Yan's current changes.
Since Xie Yan had extended the invitation, Fei Ge naturally had no reason to refuse, so he agreed, "Let me know after you have decided on the time and place."
Xie Yan smiled and said, "Okay."
After settling in Brother Fei, Xie Yan left. As soon as he walked out of Brother Fei's guest room, his cell phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and was a little surprised.
The call was from Xie Hengdong. Logically speaking, it was midnight in country A. Why did his father call at this time?
Thinking of a possibility, Xie Yan's eyes lit up and he picked up the phone while walking.
Xie Yan: "Dad."
Without waiting for the person on the other end of the phone to respond, Xie Yan said directly: "Dad, I guess you have returned to China and are now at the airport in K city."
"My son is so smart!"
Xie Hengdong's hearty laughter came from the phone, but if you listened carefully, you actually felt a little nervous.
As if he didn't hear it, Xie Yan walked to the elevator and pressed the button. He said to Xie Hengdong, "I'll pick you up now."
Xie Hengdong did not tell Xie Yan before returning to China. Xie Yan thought that Xie Hengdong would not come back. Now when he heard the news of Xie Hengdong's return to China, Xie Yan was naturally surprised.
Xie Yan could more or less hear Xie Hengdong's nervousness when facing him. This emotion had existed since the incident a few years ago. He didn't know how to react to this, so he just kept pretending that he didn't know.
.
The elevator door opened and Xie Yan walked in. Xie Hengdong's voice sounded again, "You are busy today. I have asked your brother to pick me up."
"Okay, be careful on the road." Xie Yan did not insist. After saying a few words to Xie Hengdong, he hung up the phone.
Neither of them mentioned Ms. Hao during the whole process.
This person seemed to have become the most taboo person between father and son, and they would avoid her when chatting.
At this time, the elevator also reached the first floor, and Xie Yan walked out of the elevator.

In the afternoon, Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu came up from the village. It was Gu Yujue who went to the village to pick them up.
In fact, the reason for taking care of Yuchen and Xie Yan is that the grandparents are old and don't want them to go back and forth. But when the grandparents heard that Gu Yuchen and Xie Yan were about to move into their small home, they wanted to come over and have a look.
Gu Yuchen and Xie Yan couldn't resist their grandparents, so they had to ask Gu Yujue to go back to the village to pick up their grandparents.
It just so happened that the parents of Gu Yuchen and Xie Yan had not met formally yet. This time, it was a rare occasion for the two of them to get together for the occasion of their housewarming. Naturally, they wanted to meet formally.
Although this meeting was a little rushed, Gu Yuchen still booked a private room in Xiyuan and made the arrangements well.
At about seven o'clock in the evening, the two families arrived at Xiyuan, and Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu also came. Gu Yuchen and Xie Yan each supported one, and let their grandparents sit on the main seat.
Xie Hengdong knew the identities of Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu before, so he behaved very respectfully when he saw them.
This was a formal meeting between the parents of both parties. Xie Hengdong was a little worried that Gu Yuchen's family was biased against Xie Yan, but after getting along, he could see that Gu Yuchen's family liked Xie Yan very much, and Xie Yan got along very well with them.
Xie Hengdong breathed a sigh of relief.
He could feel that the Gu family were all gentle people. If Xie Yan had such a family taking care of him in K City, he would be relieved.
Feeling relieved, Xie Hengdong turned his attention to other aspects. Gu's father happened to be a professor of economics, and the two of them had a lot to talk about. They hit it off and immediately exchanged contact information.
This formal meeting between the parents of both parties was very successful, and both parents were very satisfied with their in-laws.
The meal didn't end until after nine o'clock.
Xie Jin and Xie Hengdong returned to the hotel together.
Xie Jin drove the car, and Xie Hengdong sat in the back seat.
He had just had a drink with Dad Gu at the dinner table. With his drinking capacity, he certainly wouldn't get drunk. It's just that he rushed back from country a today. Due to jet lag, he didn't take a good rest at noon, so he was a little tired now.
Xie Hengdong couldn't help but pinch his brows, and looked outside the window. He saw the scenery outside the window retreating rapidly, and his eyes became moist for some reason.
Xie Jin glanced at Xie Hengdong through the rearview mirror in the car, noticed something was wrong with Xie Hengdong, and asked with concern: "Dad, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay," Chi Chi knew, frowning and shaking his head. After being quiet for a while, he said, "I'm a little happy."
He said he was happy, but there was a hint of sourness in his tone.
Regardless of whether Xie Jin understood what he meant, Xie Hengdong continued: "I can't help but be happy when I see Xiaoyan is doing so well now."
"The Gu family are all good people. I can feel it. When Xiaoyan gets along with the Gu family, her whole body and mind are relaxed, but..."
Having said this, Xie Hengdong stopped again.
He didn't know what to say anymore.
To be continued...
