Chapter 6: Exploding Romance Scandal
"dad?"
Xie Tingsi was so spicy that he took a big gulp of Sprite: "Why did you come back just now?"
Xie Chengyue's tall and strong figure blocked out Shen Wan and Shen Baili behind him.
Xie Chengyue frowned: "Eat first before talking, where are your manners?"
Xie Tingsi whispered back: "I don't have any quality."
He spoke vaguely, and Xie Chengyue didn't hear clearly: "What did you say?"
His tone was obviously a little heavier, and Xie Tingsi admitted it in seconds: "I said I swallowed it."
"Are you guys out playing?" Xie Tingsi just noticed the other two people and their attire.
"Don't even take me with you. I'm a social butterfly."
He waved and greeted Shen Wan and Shen Baili: "Hi!"
Xie Chengyue couldn't stand his careless look and said in an unhappy tone, "You won't call for help?"
Xie Tingsi's body froze, and he said reluctantly: "Aunt Xie."
Shen Wan responded: "Yes."
Being a stepmother is difficult, so she wisely does not get involved in the conflict between father and son.
Xie Chengyue's face looked better. Seeing the junk food on the coffee table, he asked, "Why don't you ask the kitchen to make something to eat?"
Xie Tingsi didn't feel the strong concern: "What's the point of eating alone?"
He felt that saying this made him seem a little too pitiful, so he took the initiative to change the subject.
"Hey kid, why don't you call for help?" He spotted Shen Baili quietly pretending to be a quail.
Shen Baili: “…”
Don't think that the other party has bad taste in his eyes. She said loudly: "Second brother!"
Xie Tingsi thought she was shy and didn't like to talk, but he was suddenly startled by her loud voice and his body trembled.
"Ah, yeah."
"Xiao Lihua, you're almost deafening my ears." Xie Tingsi rubbed his ears and complained.
Shen Baili blinked: "Sorry, I lost control of the volume, I didn't mean to do that."
It wasn't intentional, it was deliberate.
Xie Tingsi: "Forget it, I am an adult and I don't hold grudges against children."
Xie Chengyue was furious when he saw his nonchalant look.
Seeing his father about to explode, Xie Tingsi ran away faster than a rabbit: "I'm so sleepy, I'll go upstairs first."
"Good night, everyone."
In the blink of an eye, the person disappeared.
Xie Chengyue took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
"It's getting late, let's go to bed early." Shen Wan patted his back to soothe him.
Xie Chengyue has always been emotionally stable, but his second son always manages to make him furious: "I'm fine."
Shen Wan was helpless: "You, don't always make people worry."
Xie Chengyue had a smile in his eyes.
Shen Baili remained quiet. Fortunately, Shen Wan noticed her extremely bright light bulb: "Sui Sui, go to bed early."
"Don't read tonight. You can't stay up late."
Shen Baili: "Okay, I'm just sleepy."
"Mom, Uncle Xie, good night."
Xie Chengyue said gently: "Good night."
Shen Wan: "Good night, baby."
…
Xie Tingsi sat on the edge of the bed, staring at the hydrangea on the bedside table with his bright eyes. The clusters of blue petals piled together were a very intuitive beauty.
He recalled the conversation he had overheard among the servants in the kitchen.
His father actually has time to accompany his second wife to arrange flowers. When did he become so patient?
If he had been so patient with his mother, perhaps she would not have been so determined to divorce him.
A gloomy look flashed across Xie Tingsi's eyes. He waved his hand towards the vase, but it stopped abruptly in mid-air.
Never mind. What's wrong with flowers?
He put the vase in the corner of the windowsill.
***
The apparent peace of the Xie family was broken when Xie Tingsi returned home.
The next day, the father and son had a fierce quarrel and finally parted on bad terms.
Xie Tingsi only stayed at home for one night and left angrily with a wound on his forehead.
Xie Chengyue stayed alone in the study for an hour. When he came out, his complexion returned to normal and he went to the company.
On the way to the company, he gave Assistant Li a new task.
Assistant Li agreed calmly on the surface, and in his heart he felt a sense of relief that the time had finally come. It was finally his turn to take care of the boss's household affairs.
Although he was complaining in his heart, Assistant Li quickly started his investigation mission.
Although Xie Chengyue and Xie Tingsi always quarrel, they actually care about each other in their actions.
Although the boss was angry, he still asked him to investigate the details of the movie that Xie Tingsi wanted to invest in.
…
Shen Baili and Shen Wan were not affected by the quarrel between father and son. They were busy taking etiquette lessons.
Every second is a knowledge point that needs to be taken notes.
After finishing it, Shen Baili almost fainted. This was even harder than math.
…
Xie Zhiyu received a voice message from his second brother, and then learned what happened from housekeeper Lin. He immediately called but no one answered. After completing the necessary work, he left work early to look for his brother who was suspected to have run away from home.
He found out their location from his brother's group of second-generation rich friends. When he arrived at the private room, his brother was sitting in the corner, drinking alone, looking quite decadent and dissolute.
Is he filming a movie? Xie Zhiyu wondered.
His friends thought he was heartbroken and tried to persuade and comfort him. Who would have thought that he had just had an argument with his father and was almost crying?
When the second-generation rich saw Xie Zhiyu at the door, they all stood up respectfully and greeted their big brother.
Xie Zhiyu politely responded: "Please take care of him."
He pulled his brother up and said, "Let's go home."
Xie Tingsi tried to shake him off, but couldn't. His hand was attracted to his brother's hand like a magnet: "I don't want to go home."
"The old man told me to get out, so I got out."
"I left in the morning and returned in the evening. How embarrassing for me."
Xie Zhiyu: “…”
"Okay, I won't go home."
"Then where should I go? Where can I go if I don't go home?" Xie Tingsi was confused.
"Then let's go home." Xie Zhiyu was too lazy to talk nonsense with the drunkard: "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll knock you out."
Perhaps the threat worked, Xie Tingsi followed his brother obediently: "Then let's go home."
Xie Zhiyu looked at the second-generation rich kids and said, "I've paid the bill, you guys continue to play."
None of the second-generation rich people sat down, and the tactful ones opened the door for them: "Goodbye, big brother."
"Goodbye, big brother."
As I watched the two brothers leave, the box suddenly became quiet.
Someone suddenly said: Damn, Xie Tingsi is such a lucky guy.
As the second young master of a top wealthy family, his family cares about him. He always has the capital to be willful, and there is always someone to clean up his mess.
As indifferent as Xie Zhiyu was, he rushed over in less than two hours after hearing his younger brother had a quarrel with his family.
They all listened to Xie Tingsi sending voice messages to Big Brother, and many of them were waiting to see him make a fool of himself.
Who is Xie Zhiyu? He was born into another family and is the heir of the Xie family. His time is tied to money. How could he have the time to take care of his drunken brother?
Ha, just kidding.
Now, these people who want to laugh at others are the biggest joke!
"I'm going to order the most expensive wine and bankrupt the Xie family!" someone said.
"Eat them up!"
Many people responded, and others responded.
In a corner where no one was paying attention, there was a man texting someone on his cell phone.
【Guess what I saw! ? 】
【Xie Tingsi, he lied to you! 】
***
Xie Tingsi slept until noon the next day before waking up. He walked downstairs in a daze.
Seeing the three people in the living room, his eyes widened: "Brother, why are you at home?"
Xie Zhiyu glanced at him and asked, "Are you sober?"
Xie Tingsi felt guilty: "Wake up... wake up, brother, I have a headache."
Steward Lin: "Second Master, the sobering soup is warm in the kitchen. Would you like to have a bowl now?"
Xie Tingsi nodded: "I want to drink a big bowl."
Xie Zhiyu put down his bowl and chopsticks: "I'm full."
Shen Wan and Shen Baili were also full and prepared to go for a walk.
Xie Zhiyu looked at Xie Tingsi and said, "Come to my study after dinner."
Xie Tingsi's handsome face drooped, and he said weakly, "I know."
It's over, his brother is going to teach him a lesson too.
Xie Tingsi dragged his feet and extended his meal time from half an hour to an hour, and finally had to go to the study obediently.
His father may not beat him, but his brother will definitely!
He knocked on the study door.
"Come in."
Xie Zhiyu put down the book and pointed to the seat opposite him: "Sit down."
Xie Tingsi wanted to run, but reason held him back.
Based on years of experience of being beaten, running now would only result in a more severe attack.
"Brother~" he said with a flattering smile, "What do you want from me?"
Xie Zhiyu found it funny: "You sit down first."
"I won't beat you."
His brother's emotions are written all over his face and are easy to understand.
"Oh." Hearing that he would not be beaten, Xie Tingsi sat down quickly, held his head high and chest out, and placed his hands obediently on his legs, forming a standard sitting posture of an elementary school student.
"Brother, I'm sitting down."
Xie Zhiyu sat upright and said, "Tell me about the movie you want to invest in. I read the script and it's pretty good."
Xie Tingsi couldn't believe it: "Brother!"
He cried with joy.
Xie Zhiyu stopped his emotion and sentimentality: "You have 30 minutes to tell me why I invested in this movie."
Xie Tingsi immediately said: "This fantasy movie is very different. The current domestic market..."
Xie Tingsi made sufficient preparations. He really liked this movie and firmly believed in its prospects and future.
He was discussing this movie with the old man yesterday, but unfortunately, he was interrupted by the old man as soon as he opened his mouth, saying that he was not doing his job, and the two started arguing.
Nothing he does will satisfy the old man.
Xie Tingsi couldn't get investment from the old man, but he didn't plan to give up. He planned to find a way to secretly sell some of his assets, and with the money he made in the entertainment industry in recent years, he should be able to finish filming this drama.
He won't ask for any remuneration then, but instead will want investment shares, which he can earn back from the movie dividends.
Xie Tingsi was in high spirits, and he talked about everything from the film's subject matter, director, casting, market share, etc., until his mouth was dry.
He looked at his brother expectantly: "Brother, what do you think?"
Xie Zhiyu nodded: "Not bad."
Xie Tingsi tried: "Then..."
Xie Zhiyu: "I have invested. Please contact my assistant and he will finalize the contract details such as share dividends and investment ratio with you."
Xie Tingsi jumped up and down excitedly: "That's great!!!"
"Brother, you are my father!!!"
Xie Zhiyu, who was delighted to receive the super-generation promotion, spat out one word indifferently: "Get lost."
Xie Tingsi had long been accustomed to his brother's icy face: "Dad... No, brother, I'm out."
"You have good taste."
Xie Zhiyu frowned: "Three, two..."
Xie Tingsi sensed the danger and ran away as fast as a puff of smoke.
Run away, go out, close the door, all in one go.
Xie Tingsi patted his chest nervously at the door and almost got beaten.
He returned to his room and went straight to the cloakroom, where he spent an hour picking out clothes to match, and then went out happily.
At the door of the villa, I bumped into Shen Baili.
"Xiao Lihua, second brother is out." Xie Tingsi greeted warmly.
"Brother, this outfit looks handsome!"
Shen Baili looked at him: "Uh..."
Xie Tingsi is very good at dressing up, especially mixing and matching styles.
Today he is wearing a mix and match style of clothes, which would be a disaster on others, but against his terribly handsome face, it looks very fashionable.
The degree of fashion perfection depends on appearance, and Xie Tingsi himself has interpreted this sentence very well.
Xie Tingsi was in a good mood when he saw her staring at him, "Brother is so handsome."
Shen Baili couldn't help but say he wasn't handsome: "Yes, he is handsome."
[Like a peacock spreading its tail.]
"Hmm? What peacock?" Xie Tingsi was stunned: "Do you want to raise a peacock?"
Shen Baili admired his jumping and said, "No, I don't want to raise one."
"Brother, don't keep your friend waiting for too long." She decided to end the topic first.
Xie Tingsi glanced at his watch and said, "We're going to be late!"
"Xiao Lihua, I don't want to chat with you anymore. Bye." He ran towards the garage.
Shen Baili: "You run so fast."
***
In the evening, the two reconstituted families gathered for dinner for the second time, and the restaurant was very lively.
Butler Lin is very attentive and there are dishes that everyone likes on the table.
Xie Chengyue sat in the main seat, Shen Wan sat on his right, and Shen Baili sat next to her mother, quietly acting like a food machine and never showing up.
The two brothers of the Xie family sat on the left side of Xie Chengyue and ate in silence.
There was no quarrel, just a warm dinner.
Xie Chengyue is very satisfied. Nothing is more important than family harmony.
"Chengyue, Mr. He's birthday is in two months, and he mentioned your fiancée."
Xie Zhiyu understood what he meant: "I understand. I will ask Sang Ya for his opinion."
He did not agree on behalf of his fiancée, but from his understanding, she would most likely refuse.
Xie Chengyue was not reluctant. He was very confident in his eldest son. He looked at Xie Tingsi again and said, "I heard that you asked your brother to invest in your...movie?"
Xie Tingsi vaguely hinted at his father: "My brother has good vision."
Xie Chengyue agreed with his opinion: "Your brother really has a good eye."
"I won't interfere in your affairs. Now that you have made your decision, just go ahead and do it."
He paused, but ultimately did not utter the words of encouragement.
Shen Wan picked up a few pieces of fish for her daughter. Shen Baili smiled at her, then ate all the fish and picked up some beef for her mother, which she liked.
Xie Tingsi said in a muffled voice: "I understand."
Xie Zhiyu: "I believe in my vision."
Xie Tingsi smiled widely and instantly felt full of energy.
His brother said he believed in his own judgment = his brother believed in him!
Xie Chengyue looked at Xie Tingsi's face, which showed his emotions clearly, and curled the corners of his mouth.
After dinner, Shen Wan and Shen Baili went out for a walk as usual. After dinner, the father and his two sons rested for a while and went to the gym together.
An hour later, Xie Tingsi collapsed on the floor, while his old father and brother were still energetic and intensified his exercise.
Xie Chengyue shook his head and asked in confusion: "Don't celebrities need to manage their body shape?"
Xie Zhiyu threw a towel on his brother's face: "Don't lie down immediately after exercise, get up."
Xie Tingsi climbed up from the ground with great difficulty, lifted up his shirt, and said loudly, "I have abdominal muscles, I have managed my body!"
Xie Chengyue looked at his abdominal muscles and laughed out loud.
Xie Zhiyu was also amused by his brother: "Your abdominal muscles are almost one piece."
"Everyone has one."
Xie Tingsi has beautiful muscle lines, not too thin nor too strong, and he usually manages his body strictly.
He could control his weight, but not his muscle growth, which was slow and painful.
Xie Tingsi was so angry: "You guys may not have as many abdominal muscles as me!?"
I was so angry that my head was swelling.
Xie Chengyue and Xie Zhiyu fulfilled his wish.
It's ok that his brother has perfectly defined six-pack abs, but why does his dad have it too!!!??
That's not fair.
Xie Tingsi was very envious: "You did it?"
Xie Chengyue: "Exercise more."
Xie Zhiyu directly formulated a fitness plan for him: "Intake high protein every day and do strength training for a few hours..."
"If you need it, I can arrange a personal trainer and schedule for you. Within three months, you can achieve your wish of gaining muscle."
Xie Tingsi's heart was moved: "Then it's settled?"
Xie Zhiyu: "Well, it's settled."
After all these years, Xie Chengyue is still amazed at his eldest son's ability to smooth things over for his second son.
The two sports teams, after completing their respective activities, miraculously met again in the living room, where Butler Lin was also.
The two parties were chatting casually when the sound of hurried footsteps broke the silence.
"Butler Lin, something bad has happened. The eldest and second young masters have become a hot topic!"
Before Xie Tingsi could react, he was shocked by what Butler Xiao Lin said next.
"It's said on the internet that the second young master likes men and is being kept by the eldest young master?"
A question mark slowly emerged in Butler Lin's mind.
He knows all these words, so why can't he understand them when they are put together into a sentence?
