Chapter 393 Father’s Marriage

Author: Hometown Three Thousand Miles

Yan Xin called Gu Ru on the spot and asked her if she could go to Beijing to be the award presenter for the second Hanfu Goddess Competition finals on New Year's Day.

Gu Ru was recording an album in Starlight Entertainment's recording studio at this time. She asked her manager Xiao Yin about her schedule at that time and learned that she would attend a certain satellite TV New Year's Eve party on December 31st, New Year's Day.

There was no arrangement, so he replied to Yan Xin that he could spare some time.

The New Year's Eve party she was going to attend was held in a southern city. She wanted to attend an event in the capital, so she had to fly to the capital after attending the party. She didn't have much time to rest, and it was a bit tiring.

However, she still wanted to support Yan Xin's activities, and there was no discussion about remuneration.

Yan Xin told Xue Bing her answer, which made Xue Bing very happy.

A celebrity presenting an award is more dignified than a company boss presenting an award, and it will also make netizens feel more generous.

In this way, she did not insist on Yan Xin attending the awards night.

Yan Xin spent the weekend with Feng Xi. On Monday, Feng Xi had to go to school, so he returned to Yangcheng.

When I left, my steps were staggering, and I felt like a seventy-year-old man.

Feng Xi also gave thoughtful suggestions: drink more wolfberry, eat more supplements, and exercise more.

When he arrived in Yangcheng, it was Aili who drove to the airport to pick him up.

He and Aili hadn't seen each other for only two or three days. It wasn't a reunion after a long absence, but it gave Yan Xin a chance to breathe and regain his health.

However, he also felt that his physical condition was still not good enough and he still needed to exercise more.

His current physique is not suitable for realizing his dream.

If that day comes, I'm afraid it won't be a blessing for him, but a disaster.

He finally made a difficult decision - to sign up for a fitness class, work hard and scientifically to strengthen his body.

Only in this way can you better embrace your dreams.

However, he didn't sign up for a class right away. He just went shopping on the street and picked up a few gym flyers. He took them home and studied them carefully to see where he could go.

He plans to exercise again after a while.

In a few days, he would have to leave Yangcheng again. He would have to interrupt his exercise as soon as he started, which would have a great impact on his enthusiasm for exercise.

This time he is not going to the capital, but to return to his hometown.

December 12th, the third day of the eleventh month of the lunar calendar, was the day when his father and Bai Xiaoling's mother were getting married.

Although we are not planning to serve wine, we will still bring some relatives over to celebrate, which can be regarded as a ceremony.

Yan Xin, as his son, of course had to be present to witness.

Neither Aili nor Feng Xi had any objections to this matter and expressed their understanding.

If your biological father wants to get married, then he must go.

It's just that Ai Lili had the idea that she wanted to go with Yan Xin.

She is very interested in the place where Yan Xin grew up and has seen many photos and videos taken by Yan Xin. She also hopes that her relationship with Yan Xin will be recognized and blessed by Yan Xin's father.

These two reasons made her want to go there.

Yan Xin also agreed to take her back to his hometown this time, but he didn't really want to at all.

The main reason is that he doesn't want his relationship with Aili to be exposed in front of the elders in his hometown. If Feng Xi also knows about it, he will cry.

Before that day came, he was already thinking of finding some reason to keep Ellie.

First of all, when it came to deciding on a day for his father to get the marriage certificate, he made a suggestion. The date was set on December 12th, saying that it was a day for couples to get married and it was auspicious.

In fact, the main reason is that this day is not a weekend, but a normal working day.

If Ellie wants to participate, she will have to miss a few days of work.

However, Ai Lili is the general manager of Starlight Entertainment Company, and there is no need to clock in. Previously, it was okay to go out for a month, but now it is just a few days off from work, which is completely fine.

Therefore, Yan Xin specially made an acquisition case and proposed to acquire a company that engages in game development.

At present, there are not many large-scale game development companies in China, but there are quite a lot of small game developers. Many of them belong to the grass-roots team. They have learned relevant technologies and are interested in games. They enter the game with dreams in mind.

Such an industry.

Yan Xin is also planning to go into the gaming field in the future. Now his company has a game development department. In order to improve its game development capabilities, it is understandable that it would acquire a related company.

He has mentioned it before, and now in order to hold back Ellie, he has thrown out this acquisition case, saying that the right time has come.

The efficiency of the company's employees is quite high. It only took two or three days from putting forward this suggestion to setting the goal, and then entered the negotiation process.

The target they were looking at was just a very small game development company, with less than ten employees in total, but it still cost a little money to acquire such a company.

In particular, several small games developed by this company can make a little money.

It's just that the boss wants to go abroad and sell domestic assets, so they have such an acquisition opportunity.

To acquire such a company, you still need some money.

The other party's offer was five million, and all the game, employees, and company assets were sold.

Although there is room for price reduction, it cannot be reduced by much.

Even with a 40% discount, it would still cost 3 million to get it.

And the possibility of being able to talk about this price is not high.

For Starlight Entertainment, it is also a big expense.

With such a large investment, it stands to reason that Yan Xin, the boss, should make the investment himself.

Yan Xin did follow up on this project for a few days.

Then, the time came for his father to get married and get the certificate, and he could only say to Ellie very depressedly:

"My dad is getting married in two days, and I, the son, have to go over and help with the arrangements. Now this game acquisition case has reached an important stage. If both of us leave, there will be no one in the company who can be responsible...

"

When he said this, his brows were furrowed and he looked very troubled.

He didn't express his thoughts directly, but the meaning was already obvious.

Ai Lili was also very depressed - she really wanted to go back with Yan Xin.

He tentatively said: "How about... put this project on hold for a few days?"

Yan Xin frowned even more: "I heard that the boss is going to the United States for Christmas and wants to sell the company before then. If we don't hurry up, he will sell it to others. Their company is in the game

We still have certain capabilities in development and marketing. Bringing this team over will be very important to our future development strategy, and we cannot lose this opportunity."

Seeing that Ai Lili had not expressed her position, she added: "In this acquisition negotiation, one of us must be here to take charge. Otherwise, I will stay here and you will go to my hometown for me as my girlfriend.

Help my dad handle this matter?"

Ellie was stunned: "You don't want to go? Let me go?"

Yan Xin sighed: "There is no way. This acquisition is very important to the future development of our company. You can explain it to my dad. He should be able to understand it."

Ellie felt incredible: "But I have never been to your hometown, and your father doesn't know me. If you don't take me there, what can I do if I go alone?"

Yan Xin pursed his lips: "If neither of us can go there...my dad should be able to understand me...but will my stepmother think that I have a problem with her, so no one of us can go there?"

"You'd better go ahead," Ai Lili finally said what Yan Xin had been waiting for. "I'll keep an eye on the acquisition."

I felt a little depressed because I couldn't go back to his hometown with Yan Xin.

What's more, she is uneasy - this is an investment worth several million, and she is asked to be responsible for it, and she is afraid that she will not be able to shoulder this responsibility.

Yan Xin looked at her: "But... I promised my father to take you there when he got married, and now I leave you here..."

He looked very depressed.

With his attitude, Ellie felt a little better and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, I can't go this time. Let's go together during the Chinese New Year."

"New Year's Eve..."

Yan Xin's heart trembled.

During the New Year, Feng Xi will definitely go home to celebrate the New Year. When the two women meet, it will be even worse.

But at this time, he had no way to object. He could only take it one step at a time and said, "That's right, then the two of us will go back together during the Chinese New Year."

After saying this, I then thought about it, there will be a snowstorm during the Chinese New Year, the roads will be blocked, and I won’t be able to go back if I want to, so I don’t have to worry about it anymore.

Moreover, Ellie always spent time with her mother during the Chinese New Year in previous years, and this time will probably be no exception.

Maybe he would pass without even needing to think of a reason.

This matter is in the past. There is no need to take Ellie home, and for the time being, the fact that he is treading two boats will not be exposed.

He will definitely be exposed in the future, he has no doubt about this.

However, all he can do is delay as much time as possible.

Maybe both ships will want to sail by then?
