The New Year's Day holiday was originally three days long. On the afternoon of the third day, Yan Bo flew back to Beijing alone.
He hadn't mentioned returning to Beijing to Boss Tong, but he had told Tong Xiaohuai.
But he didn't mention what his purpose was in going back, and Tong Xiaohuai didn't ask either.
After all, he is a child of the Yan family. Even if he has no ulterior motives, it is normal for him to go back to see his parents and brothers during holidays.
Yanbo didn't tell his parents beforehand that he was going home.
Ever since his father tricked him into losing contact with the outside world for a week, his relationship with his father has become increasingly tense.
So, he was actually a little scared, afraid that if he called home, his father, who was still angry, would tell him not to come back.
When he returned to the gate of the compound in a taxi, the guards at the gate were quite surprised to see him.
"Third Young Master, why are you back?"
Yan Bo nodded to him, "Yeah, I happened to have a holiday, so I came back to see my parents."
The Yan family has three children, all of whom are very outstanding and work away from home for many years, so none of them can come back for a long time.
Most of the time, I'll let you know before I come back so that my family can prepare food and supplies.
"Then I'll quickly tell Uncle Cui to see if the chef has started cooking yet."
The security guard picked up the phone as he spoke.
Yanbo entered the house and subconsciously looked around the yard. Even though the weather was cold, his mother often took walks in the yard.
There were only two servants sweeping the courtyard. When they saw him return, they came over and greeted him.
"Where's my mom? Is she at home?"
The sweeping maid shook her head. "No, Madam left early this morning. As for where she went, Young Master, you should ask Uncle Cui."
"My dad isn't home either?"
"Yes, Elder Yan has been very busy lately. Isn't he going to be entertaining some VIPs later?"
Yan Bo thought about it and realized that there was indeed such a thing.
Looking back, I realize I acted impulsively. If I come back at this time, neither my parents will have time to deal with me.
"Third Young Master, you're back! What would you like for lunch? I'll have the chef make it."
Uncle Cui, who came to greet Yanbo, took the bag from him and asked with concern.
"My parents never come home for dinner?"
Uncle Cui put his bag down and turned to him, saying, "Yes, as you know, every year around the end of the year, Old Master Yan and his wife often attend banquets and haven't eaten at home for several days."
Yan Bo was somewhat disappointed. "Isn't my mom coming home tonight either?"
It would be good to see my dad and mom.
After thinking it over and over, Yanbo still felt that it would be easier to start with his mother regarding his relationship with Tong Xiaohuai.
Therefore, his main purpose in coming back this time was to appease his mother. As for his father, who knows if the old man has calmed down yet?
"Are you not coming back? I have an appointment with a designer to try on clothes and jewelry. Should I call and ask?"
Yan Bo waved his hand, "Never mind, I'll call her later."
My mother's affairs are matters of national importance; let's put aside his personal feelings about his children for now.
With no one home, Yanbo listlessly returned to his bedroom, took a hot bath, and only after warming himself up did he dry off, put on his clothes, and come out.
Feeling rather frustrated, he picked up the phone and dialed Tong Xiaohuai's number.
"Are you home?" Tong Xiaohuai's energetic voice quickly came through the microphone.
"Yes, we've arrived, but my parents aren't home!"
"Oh? So you just came up empty-handed?" Tong Xiaohuai seemed to feel sorry for him too.
"Hmm, if I had known this would happen, I would have stayed in L City and gone to the movies and shopping with you." Yan Bo regretted rushing back without thinking things through.
Even if you don't call home, you could still call Uncle Cui privately to ask about the situation.
Yanbo discovered that his IQ had been worrying lately, and he was becoming increasingly reckless in his actions.
"If you're bored, invite Jiajia or other friends out for a get-together. You probably haven't met up with your old friends in a long time, have you?" Tong Xiaohuai comforted him kindly.
Now that things have come to this, Yanbo has no other choice but to make this arrangement.
Little did Yanbo know that after making several phone calls, none of his close friends were available to hang out with him, as they were either traveling abroad or visiting friends with their parents.
Yan Bo was furious, so he booked a flight back to L City for the afternoon, ate lunch alone, and then went out again with his suitcase.
In the evening, the plane landed in L city.
I turned on my phone, and a series of messages came through with a "beep beep".
Yan Bo thought it was Tong Xiaohuai, but when he looked, it was all messages from his mother.
"Xiao Bo, why didn't you call me when you got home?"
"Where are you now? Are you out with some friends? Are you coming back tonight?"
...
"Xiao Bo, are you angry with Mom?"
This last line subtly reveals Yan's mother's anxious state.
Yan Bo read the message several times, and finally, he made up his mind and turned off his phone again.
Or perhaps he should take a gamble.
Since the parents cannot accept Tong Xiaohuai through conventional methods.
How about we try a different approach?
Having made up his mind, Yanbo got into a taxi, turned his phone back on, and quickly blacklisted his parents' and home phone numbers.
I learned from Boss Tong that Tong Xiaohuai had gone so far as to blackmail Boss Tong for his sake.
Tong Laoda said at the time, "Xiao Yan, I've finally seen it clearly. The daughter I raised for eighteen years has been completely taken away by you."
At that moment, Yan Bo felt that he had done something wrong to make Tong Xiaohuai risk breaking ties with Boss Tong just to preserve his dignity and future.
Since Tong Xiaohuai was able to do this.
He Yanbo, of course, can also do it.
When he returned to his residence, he first called Tong Xiaohuai to tell her that he was back and asked her to have dinner together the next night.
"Why did you come back?" Tong Xiaohuai was clearly incredulous.
“My parents weren’t home, all my childhood friends were busy, and I was so bored at home by myself that I decided to book a flight and fly back.”
"Pfft, you've already started to consider yourself a resident of L City, haven't you? Do you only feel a sense of belonging when you come back here?" Tong Xiaohuai teased him with a laugh on the other end of the phone.
Yan Bo paused for a moment, then thought about it and realized that it was indeed true.
He felt bored being alone at home.
But when he returned to L City, didn't he spend most of his time alone? Yet he rarely felt bored because of it.
Could it be that Tong Xiaohuai was right after all?
Subconsciously, he had already come to regard L City as his home.
On the contrary, his home in the capital became like a hotel where he occasionally stayed.
Yan Bo didn't have time to think too much. There was a notification on the phone that another call was coming in. "Xiao Huai, I have a call coming in. I'll call you back later."
After hanging up with Tong Xiaohuai, he answered another call.
"Brother, what's wrong?"
"What's wrong with you, kid? You've been home for half a day and then ran off again, and your phone has been off the whole time. Are you trying to worry your mother to death?"
Yan Yuan started cursing as soon as he opened his mouth.
