Chapter 985: Lobbyist

Mrs. Xie nodded with a gloomy look in her eyes.

Ping Gu was immediately horrified. "Madam, you can't do that. Young Master Nancheng won't forgive you if you really do that. You know his temper."

"Please go back to your hometown and ask for me. Other things are not your concern."

"But Madam..." Pinggu wanted to persuade her a little more, but Madam Xie would not listen to anything.

Now, she is the only owner left in the huge Xie family mansion.

The laughter and joy of the past are long gone. Mrs. Xie is reluctant to leave her husband, but she is unwilling to redeem him because of her dignity. She always feels that since Xie Huaiyu has cheated on her, he should take the initiative to coax her and beg her. Xie Huaiyu will definitely not have a good life after leaving the old house.

But in fact, she guessed wrong. After Xie Huaiyu's divorce, he calmed down.

Living alone, I also learned to cook for myself.

My heart calmed down and there were no more endless quarrels like when we were in the old house.

After all, I am over fifty years old, and all I need is a peaceful second half of my life.

Xie Nancheng has been very busy recently and has not visited his father.

But he was told that Xu Xin had to buy everything his father needed.

As long as there is nothing missing, the money given is also sufficient.

For Xie Huaiyu, his melodramatic career ended when Qiao Kelan disappeared after the miscarriage.

As for his son's affairs, he didn't want to care about them, he was too lazy to care. The only person he felt a little sorry for was his daughter-in-law Tu Ran.

That day, after get off work, Xie Huaishan came to visit his elder brother alone.

"Please sit down first. I'm still cooking." Xie Huaiyu turned and went into the kitchen.

"Brother, you haven't eaten yet, shall we go out to eat?"

"No, you're tired of eating outside. Come and try my cooking."

After a while, Xie Huaiyu came out with two bowls of beef brisket noodles.

There is also a small dish of pickles that I made myself.

Xie Huaishan was shocked, "Brother, you can cook now?"

"I learned it online when I was free."

"But it definitely doesn't taste as good as what's in the restaurant, but it's enough for me to eat. You can try it." He was happy that the third brother came to visit him and treated him warmly.

The two brothers sat at the bright dining table.

Xie Huaishan looked at his bowl full of beef brisket and his eyes were filled with tears.

"Suddenly I remembered when I was in college."

"Dad was still alive at that time."

"Because I spend money recklessly, I never have enough money to live on."

"I just asked you for it secretly. Every time I asked you for it, you gave it to me. You never refused me once."

Xie Huaishan smiled after hearing this.

"Brother, those were really good times."

"Although my second sister was annoying at that time, she wasn't this bad."

"They are really evil nowadays, only targeting their own people to trick them."

"Actually, I think she was taken advantage of by that guy from the fourth room, Xie Yao, and then she turned against him."

Speaking of Xie Huailan, Xie Huaiyu sighed, "Third brother, everyone has their own destiny. Even if a dragon gives birth to nine sons, they are all different, not to mention the three of us brothers and sisters. Lanzi is too ambitious. She wants to monopolize the Xie family's foundation. How is this possible? How could Nancheng let her? If Nancheng was a fool, it would be fine, but he is more suitable to take over the family business than me. I always feel that I am not cruel enough, so Nancheng is in big trouble. Nancheng... is much more cruel than me. I think he is very suitable for this position. I am not speaking for my son."

"I agree with you, brother."

"Nancheng can really handle things."

"There's been a lot of fuss over Xie Yao lately. I heard he poached Nancheng's carefully trained team. My wife is really worried about this. But Nancheng doesn't seem to be affected at all. Being a big boss requires the ability to withstand pressure and a broad mind. But... regarding his private life... well, it's normal to have a little affair with a female assistant, but it's not good to be followed and reported in the news all the time, especially since he's not divorced yet."

"Has he not completed the formalities yet?"

"Probably, I didn't ask." Xie Huaiyu said.

"My wife wants Nancheng to keep a low profile, but she doesn't dare to say it."

"Everyone in the company is really afraid of Nancheng. To be honest, I'm afraid of him too."

"But I thought, since we are all family, there are still some things we need to talk about, so I just told you. Brother, you are his father, so you can persuade him when you have time."

"If you really like that female assistant, wait until you divorce your ex-wife before doing whatever you want. Take it easy."

"There's a lot of public opinion online right now, and it's really detrimental to the group."

It turned out that the third brother came to act as a lobbyist.

Of course it was Yang Xin who directed her husband to come.

I want Xie Huaiyu to talk about his son.

Xie Huaiyu just sighed slightly after hearing this, "Third Brother, I'm old. I'm now retired and I don't want to care about the right and wrong of young people. I made mistakes myself, and I don't have much persuasive power between me and Nancheng. I can't control it anymore."

"Hey, if you don't say it, no one else will dare to say it."

"But is it really a good thing for Nancheng if no one reminds him? After all, he is less than 30 years old. I am really afraid that he will become too young and reckless." Xie Huaishan was worried.

"Eat first, don't worry about anything else. Eat your fill first."

Xie Huaiyu kept picking up some pickles for the third brother, and it was a rare warm moment for the two brothers.

Before leaving, Xie Huaishan asked generously for the first time, "Brother, do you have any money left? I've saved some private money recently, not much, just a few hundred thousand. If you want, you can use it first."

Xie Huaiyu smiled and patted Xie Huaishan on the shoulder. "No need. I have money. Nancheng's special assistant has arranged for me. I have enough food, clothing and daily expenses. What's more, the group pays me a pension every month, which is more than enough."

"Okay, then remember to call me if you need anything."

"Well, go back now, don't be late to pick up the kids from school."

Waving his hand, Xie Huaiyu said goodbye to his brothers.

Another rare guest, Zhou Han, arrived.

Zhou Han had never come to visit Xie Huaiyu before, this was his first time.

You still need to ask the old house for the address.

Zhou Han came to the door carrying an exquisite fruit basket and some expensive nutritional supplements.

"Godfather, I'm sorry to bother you."

"Why are you here?"

To be honest, although Zhou Han was a very well-behaved and likable kid, Xie Huaiyu just couldn't like him. It was probably because he had been in business for many years and knew countless people.

On the contrary, I don’t like hypocritical people. I like Tu Ran’s true nature.

But for the sake of face, I can't ignore this girl who keeps calling me godfather.

"I came to see you."

"I haven't come to see you since you moved out." Zhou Han was very polite.

"Come in and sit down."

Xie Huaiyu turned around and poured Zhou Han a glass of warm water.

"Godfather, are you used to being here?"

"Yeah, it's good."

"I actually want to ask if you can move back to the old house."

As he finished speaking, Xie Huaiyu's expression began to change.

Zhou Han hurriedly explained, "Godfather, please don't misunderstand me. This wasn't my godmother's idea. How could someone as proud as her ask me to beg you to come back? This was entirely my own idea."

"I know you've already completed the divorce procedures, and there's no turning back."

"But can we live together as family?"

"Because I feel that godmother has not been in good health recently." Zhou Han began to talk about Mrs. Xie's health.

"What happened to Ayan?" Xie Huaiyu asked hurriedly.
