Chapter 50 A Mother's Worries When Her Son Travels Far Away



Xu Xiu didn't want to risk trouble here, so he went straight to the customer service area of ​​the office building, where a few young women were working the night shift.

Seeing Xu Xiu walk in, the young ladies were so excited they were almost incoherent, but their hands never stopped replying to messages, showing their professionalism.

Xu Xiu pulled up a chair and chatted with a few young ladies about Ruoxiu Fanmeng's recent situation.

Several people said that the growth of fans has been stable recently, but it is not as rapid as it was at the beginning.

Hearing this, Xu Xiu thought it was normal, since every account has a bottleneck period.

The customer service staff at my parents' factory are responsible for handling customers who come to buy clothes through their accounts. The factory has also opened flagship stores on various platforms.

These customer service and sales tasks were all handed over to them, while Xu Xiu's main tasks were maintaining the account, creating high-quality content, and interacting with fans.

After sitting for a while, we each ordered a milk tea from the customer service lady and then left.

After Xu Xiu left, the young ladies each posted a message on their WeChat Moments like they were infatuated with him: "The young master ordered us a cup of milk tea."

As a result, his colleagues on the day shift saw the post and left comments complaining about why they were so unlucky and didn't get to work the night shift.

After leaving the factory and returning home, Xu Xiu sent Xiao Ruoyan a message. He didn't let her know he was safe or ask any questions; he simply said that he had gone to the factory for a look.

Business is booming, and everyone says they'll have to keep up the good work when school starts.

Then she asked what I had for dinner, and soon after I received a blurry photo. Xiao Ruoyan sent a message explaining, "I cooked stir-fried pork, cauliflower and celery for dinner, and also made a soup."

"He also said that he would definitely work even harder."

Xu Xiu glanced at the message but didn't reply before going to sleep. However, Xiao Ruoyan on the other side couldn't fall asleep, clutching her phone.

Xu Xiu was getting restless staying at home during the National Day holiday. His parents were out early and back late and didn't really treat him like their son.

Knowing that her son was a great cook, she would call him every night before coming home to ask what he wanted to eat so that Xu Xiu could prepare it in advance.

Breakfast was the same, which made Xu Xiu more tired at home than at school. If it weren't for picking up Xiao Ruoyan, he would have run back to school long ago.

This house is simply unbearable. Although Xu Tinglong and Fang Xueting's holiday life was as busy as ever, they were extremely happy to have their son at home at their beck and call.

The couple felt that all the hardship and toil was worthwhile, as their family business finally had an heir, and they were even more motivated.

For Xu Xiu, however, each day felt like an eternity. Ning Bufan hadn't returned, nor had any of his former close friends.

Originally, Xu Xiu planned to return to school on the 7th, but on the evening of the 5th, he sent a message to Xiao Ruoyan, claiming that Ning Bufan and the others had already started working at the studio.

We can't be lazy at home either. Xiao Ruoyan was overjoyed when she received Xu Xiu's message. She had been somewhat absent-minded these past few days while staying at home.

Looking at her daughter's condition these past few days, Zhang Aixiang felt a sense of unease, like a daughter who has grown up and can no longer stay at home.

Because Xiao Ruoyan had been going to the village entrance with her grandfather these past few days and staring blankly at the mountain road, Xiao Liang didn't ask her anything directly, but only whispered a few words to Zhang Aixiang in private.

Upon receiving the message that Xiao Ruoyan had packed her things and was ready to leave at any time, Xu Xiu immediately called his parents and told them that the roads would be too congested on the 7th and it would be better to leave earlier.

As a result, Xu Tinglong drove his family's first car, an older model Volkswagen, back from the factory that very night. This car was originally kept at the factory as a spare, and its maintenance and upkeep were done regularly.

The couple returned home late at night, and they left their car keys on the lock of Xu Xiu's room.

On the morning of the 6th, Fang Xueting got up early to prepare breakfast for her son. Despite her usual disdainful expression towards Xu Xiu, a mother is always all bark and no bite.

Knowing that Xu Xiu was leaving today, I got up very early. I only went to bed at 2 a.m. last night, so getting up early meant I didn't get much sleep.

When Xu Xiu got up and opened the door at around 6 a.m., a car key fell to the ground. Looking at the car key, he knew it was the family's car, which was almost as old as him.

The tables in the restaurant were laden with my favorite breakfast items, and there were also takeout bags next to them, probably in case I wanted to take them with me on the go.

Fang Xueting had already thought of all the possible scenarios. A mother worries about her child no matter how far away he is. No matter how old a child is, he is always a child in his mother's eyes.

Xu Xiu ate some breakfast, then packed some for Xiao Ruoyan as well, and even sent her a message saying he had brought her breakfast.

Xiao Ruoyan was so excited that she barely slept all night, waking up every now and then but just couldn't fall back asleep.

Before, I couldn't sleep before leaving home because I was reluctant to leave my mother and grandfather, but now it's because I can see someone.

Xu Xiu went to the garage and looked at the first car in the house.

Although the car is quite old, it is still well maintained and the interior is very clean. You wouldn't know it's a classic car that's over ten years old unless you look closely.

Xu Xiu drove to Shi County and prepared to wait at the intersection leading to the village, because at the same time he set off, Xiao Ruoyan said that she had also come out in a car driven by a villager.

They agreed to meet at the intersection, and the two arrived at almost the same time. Xiao Ruoyan's small frame carrying a hiking backpack looked particularly comical.

Xu Xiu took the backpack and found it heavy. When he opened it, he saw several large, cleaned radishes and a bag of raw peanuts inside.

Xiao Ruoyan whispered from the side, "Mom... and Grandpa asked me to bring this to you."

Isn't it heavy to carry?

Xu Xiu looked at the creases in her clothes on her shoulder and asked.

"It's not heavy, this backpack is very comfortable to carry..."

Xu Xiu smiled and put her hiking backpack and her own small backpack into the trunk.

Xiao Ruoyan looked at the car in front of her and didn't ask any questions. She simply sat in the passenger seat.

Xu Xiu drove the car, and the two headed directly towards the national highway.

On the bus, Xiao Ruoyan ate the breakfast that Xu Xiu had brought, while listening to Xu Xiu recount his "miserable" life at home these past few days.

He also said he wouldn't be going home next summer vacation. When Xiao Ruoyan heard this, she wondered if Xu Xiu was coming back because of her.

"Xu... Xiu, I'll come back by myself next year..."

"What are you thinking? I said I'm not going home, not that I won't come back."

Xu Xiu looked at Xiao Ruoyan and explained.

The two chatted and laughed along the way, just like normal friends. Their relationship seemed to be a little better than friends, but a little less than lovers.

Xu Xiu originally wanted to act aloof and give off that domineering CEO vibe, but he forgot that the longer they spent time together, the deeper he would fall.

He might not have become a domineering CEO, but instead became a sycophant in another form.

The national highway is slightly better than the expressway, but only by a small margin. Xu Xiu also prepared some snacks and water to eat on the road.

We finally arrived in Hangzhou around 3 p.m. and parked the car directly in the school's parking lot.

The two went back to their dorms to put their luggage away, but as soon as Xu Xiu returned, Pang Wenjun interrogated him, "Old Xu, why did you come back with Xiao?"

"Going back together is on the way, and coming to school together is also on the way?"

Faced with Pang Wenjun's probing questions.

Xu Xiu replied directly, "None of your business."
