Chapter 609: Love Me or Not
"I do regret it," said Xie Nancheng.
"Then why don't you let me go?" Xie Huaiyu stared, furious.
"I regret not tying you up sooner. You caused so much harm to my mother."
Xie Huaiyu was stunned and a little dumbfounded.
It seems that this son regrets arresting him. This will be a difficult situation.
"You are almost sixty years old, why don't you enjoy your old age?"
"Look, what are you doing?"
"I really feel sorry for you, so I said I'm willing to leave the house with nothing."
"You still have the final say in the Xie family. I don't want anything."
"Isn't this also possible?"
"Do you really have to tie me to the Xie family for the rest of my life? And live a life of infidelity with your mother?"
"How did you endure the estrangement in the past twenty years?" Xie Nancheng sneered.
"You keep saying that you have no feelings for my mother and don't love her."
"Then you've slept with her quite a bit."
"Xie Nancheng, don't speak without thinking. Watch your choice of words." Xie Huaiyu felt a little embarrassed.
"I'm telling the truth."
"The family is in such a mess right now, and you're not considering the overall situation, but hanging out with that mistress all day. Have you ever considered how my mom and I feel?"
"Grandma, you're so old, and you still have to worry about the younger generation. Can you bear it?"
"My mother has a mental illness and is hospitalized. She can't stand any stimulation. But there are constant gossips about you outside. Buying watches for your eldest daughter and kissing her in public? Xie Huaiyu, is this what a father and a husband should do?"
"What's wrong with your mother?" Dad Xie grasped the key point.
"Here is the diagnosis, take a look for yourself."
With a snap, the diagnosis was thrown over and the private doctor helped to hold it.
Xie Huaiyu read it quickly and was a little surprised.
"Is this true?"
"How else could I deliberately lie and say my mother is mentally ill to gain your sympathy?"
"Actually, I'm extremely disappointed in you."
"According to me, if you are willing to leave the house empty-handed, then go ahead."
"But my mother can't. She's obsessed with you."
"No matter if this feeling is true love or possession, she can't let go, so she's in such a bad mood and has a series of reactions."
"I really feel sorry for her." Xie Huaiyu is a man with a conscience. As he gets older, his heart becomes softer.
"What's the point of saying sorry?" Xie Nancheng glanced at his father's face coldly.
"Nancheng, I want to go see your mother."
"No need for that. Let her recover in peace and don't irritate her anymore."
"You go see her, and then what? Tell her that you don't want a divorce, and you've decided to break up with the mistress?"
"I..." Xie Huaiyu was indeed very conflicted.
On the one hand, he felt sorry for his first wife. Even if she was not Nancheng's real mother, she was still Nancheng's aunt. For more than 20 years, she had been disguised as Nancheng's sister and taking care of her husband and children in the Xie family.
On the one hand, he felt that Qiao Kelan had a hard time too. She had lived a humble life for the past twenty or thirty years. Now she was helpless in Xiangcheng with her daughter. He was her greatest support and spiritual pillar.
"Since you haven't thought it through, just think about it slowly."
"When I figure it out, I'll let you out."
"Don't play the hunger strike game. I won't eat."
"You can call me a traitor."
"As long as my mom is okay, I don't care what other people think of me."
After saying that, Xie Nancheng turned around and left without saying another word.
Xie Huaiyu was in entanglement and pain, staring at the ceiling while receiving an IV drip, without saying a word.
After coming out of the suburban villa, Xie Nancheng was in a very bad mood.
He didn't want to treat his own father like this, but there was nothing he could do because of the situation.
"Wife, where are you?"
"Buying groceries at the supermarket." Tu Ran was shopping at a supermarket near her home. She noticed that Xie Nancheng had been very irritable recently and wanted to make something delicious for him.
"Which supermarket is it? I'll find you."
He really didn't want to stay for a moment and went to the supermarket to look for someone.
When Tu Ran saw him, he knew he was in a bad mood.
"What's wrong?"
"Let's talk when we get home." He spoke gently, put his arm around her shoulders, and continued to stroll around the vegetable market.
"It seems like it's not time to get off work yet?" Tu Ran looked at the time on his phone.
"Well, no."
"I skipped class."
"Why?" Tu Ran was very confused.
"I want to see you."
Tu Ran: ...
"Really, I was really upset. I missed you so much, but seeing you made me calm down."
If this wasn't a supermarket or a public place, the boss would have hit me in the mouth.
"Anything you want to eat?"
"No, I eat whatever you make."
"Okay, I'll buy it then."
In the end, the two bought a lot of vegetables, fruits and milk and took them home.
After returning home, Tu Ran went into the kitchen and started to get busy.
In fact, Tu Ran didn’t cook for Xie Nancheng very often, mainly because he really didn’t have time.
Sometimes, in order not to disappoint her, I would finish my meal outside and then have a few more bites when I came back.
Tu Ran could see that he rarely made dinner after that.
I accompanied Uncle Sun to eat at the clinic.
Xie Nancheng either eats at the company or eats out when he goes out for social events.
Even dinner, which is the most common thing for ordinary couples, is sometimes a luxury for their family.
While Tu Ran was cooking, Xie Nancheng was on the phone.
He even turned down several social engagements in a row.
An hour later, dinner is ready.
Four dishes and one soup, a combination of meat and vegetables.
Fried cod, bitter melon omelette, stir-fried snow peas with sausage, and braised beef brisket.
The soup is pork ribs and corn, light and nutritious.
Xie Nancheng had a big appetite and ate with relish.
Tu Ran had a small appetite and felt full after just a few bites.
"Wife, I also want a bowl of rice, thank you."
Tu Ran smiled and stood up to help him get the second bowl.
"You are such a good cook. The food is so delicious."
"Okay, Mr. Xie, please stop bragging about your business, okay?"
"I'm not bragging, I just can't control myself when I eat the food you cook. Will I get fat if I keep doing this? Will you still love me if I get fat?"
Tu Ran: ...
"What's the problem?"
"Just answer this: Do you still love me even if I'm fat?"
Tu Ran felt very strange, these were basically questions asked by girls, why was the boss being so fussy today?
"Yeah." She answered cryptically.
"What does 'hmm' mean? Just tell me whether you love me or not. Don't listen to your 'hmm'."
After holding it in for more than ten seconds, Tu Ran finally said, "Love."
After hearing this, Mr. Xie smiled brightly.
Continue eating contentedly.
"By the way, let me tell you something."
"explain."
"I was kidnapped by my father."
Tu Ran: ...
Tu Ran looked at Xie Nancheng in disbelief.
"Don't make that expression, honey, I'm not kidding, it's serious."
"Now the old man is under house arrest in a villa in the suburbs, but it's not my villa, it's A Yao's."
"Why did you do this?" Due to Tu Ran's personality, he rarely did extreme things, so it was a little unbelievable that Xie Nancheng kidnapped his own father and placed him under house arrest.
