What a bummer!
This was not just Xie Tang's idea, everyone in the room thought so, including Xiaotian, the nanny who took care of Old Mrs. Xie.
Uncle Xie looked at Xie Yuping with a puzzled look: Didn’t you say you didn’t notify the third brother?
Xie Yuping scanned the entire room. No one avoided his gaze, and everyone was open and honest.
So, no one informed Xie Jinghu, but Xie Jinghu still came?
Xie Qian's phone vibrated and a message came in.
——Mr. Xie had a meeting, but when it was about to start, he suddenly received a phone call, and then Mr. Xie decided to cancel the meeting and come here.
The message was sent by Assistant Qi.
Who would call Xie Jinghu?
No one from the Xie family would make this call.
Only those who hope that the Xie family will not be at peace would do that.
Xie Qian walked up to Xie Yuping and said, "It should be Zhang... Wen Ying and I met him at the airport."
Met Zhang Zhijun?
Xie Yuping frowned slightly. "Then he shouldn't have come. No matter what Zhang Zhijun said, didn't he doubt his intentions?"
Xie Jinghu was locked outside the door. No one opened it for him and no one answered. A ball of fire burned from his feet to his head. Xie Jinghu couldn't help but knock on the door twice more.
Everyone thinks Xie Jinghu is an eyesore, but they can't keep him outside the door all the time, as the neighbors in the community will hear the noise.
Xie Jinghu's infidelity had caused quite a stir. While the neighbors kept quiet on the surface, they were always discussing it behind his back. Finally, Zhang Zhijun emerged and snatched the title of "number one scumbag" from Xie Jinghu. Now, any gossip they had about him was bound to be about the Zhang family—the Xie family didn't want to draw attention to this anymore!
Xie Qian wanted to speak, but Xie Yuping raised his hand to suppress him.
"Xiao Wen, what do you think?"
Wen Ying looked indifferent. "Let Uncle Xie in. Uncle Xie and I have dealt with each other before, so it would be unreasonable not to see him this time."
If there is anything, you can solve it behind closed doors. There is no need to let outsiders laugh at you.
Mrs. Xie took a deep breath and patted Wen Ying's hand: "You are very good. It is not easy for you. It is our Xie family's own affairs that have dragged you down."
Wen Ying glanced quickly at Xie Qian.
"What's the burden? Without the Xie family, there would be no Xie Qian. Even if the pros and cons cancel each other out, I still made a fortune!"
The solemn atmosphere was relaxed by Wen Ying's words.
Little cousin Xie Yun gave Wen Ying a thumbs up.
——You are so brave!
Xie Yuping said with a relaxed expression, "If Xiao Wen isn't afraid of this guest, why should we be afraid? Xie Tang, go open the door for your uncle."
"oh."
Xie Tang reluctantly opened the door. Xie Jinghu, looking furious, was about to charge in. Xie Tang grabbed Xie Jinghu's sleeve and warned him softly, "Uncle San, everyone's having a great time today, especially Grandma. Oh, and even my dad has canceled his schedule today. He's going to be staying home most of the day!"
Opening the door to Xie Jinghu was already a compromise for the whole family.
If Xie Jinghu wants to make everyone unhappy, the consequences will definitely be something Xie Jinghu doesn't want to see.
Xie Jinghu's face was filled with anger: "...your father canceled today's schedule?"
"Yes, my mom said he won't be going to work until the afternoon. How rare! He doesn't stay home this long during the Spring Festival every year."
Xie Tang seemed to be chatting casually, but Xie Jinghu hesitated in his steps.
Xie Yuping doesn't celebrate the Spring Festival.
Others have holidays during the Spring Festival, but Xie Yuping cannot.
The time Xie Yuping can spend with his family having a reunion dinner is just a fragment of time he can squeeze out from his schedule. He basically doesn't have a complete day off.
The last time I saw Xie Yuping with so much personal time was when Xie Qian was in a car accident and was in the hospital.
No, when Xie Qian was lying in the hospital for emergency treatment, Xie Yuping was not completely idle. He still had meetings and inspections - so that girl surnamed Wen had such a big face in the eyes of big brother Xie Yuping?
In front of Xie Tang, Xie Jinghu performed his superb face-changing skills.
"That's perfect. I've canceled my afternoon meeting today. Your dad and I will have a couple of drinks after dinner."
Tsk.
——It’s really hard for Uncle San to force a smile even though he’s obviously very angry!
Xie Jinghu straightened his collar, put on a smile and walked into the house: "I'm late and kept you waiting. I'll drink three glasses of wine as punishment when we eat later."
Mrs. Xie breathed a sigh of relief.
I didn't notify Xie Jinghu because I didn't want today's meeting to be ruined.
Now it seems that the third brother can still distinguish the priorities.
"dad."
"Thank you, uncle."
Don't hit someone who smiles at you. Before Xie Jinghu went crazy, Xie Qian and Wen Ying both remained polite enough.
Xie Jinghu resisted the urge to criticize Wen Ying and nodded at her, "Xiao Wen is here, okay, okay, please sit down."
Xie Yuping snorted lightly, "You're not too late, just in time for dinner."
Eating is the best way to relieve embarrassment. Xie Yuping's family specially prepared lunch today to suit Wen Ying's taste, and half of the dishes on the table were bright red.
Xie Jinghu felt uncomfortable when he saw the table full of spicy dishes. There was a warning in Xie Yuping's eyes, and Xie Jinghu picked up two pieces of food with his chopsticks in a wronged manner.
If Xie Jinghu had known that Xie Yuping didn’t go to the unit, he wouldn’t have made this trip today!
Wen Ying had met Xie Jinghu several times and had never had a good impression of him. But when she saw with her own eyes that Xie Jinghu didn't even dare to fart loudly in front of Xie Yuping, Wen Ying was in a very happy mood.
Still the same thing, as long as Xie Yuping doesn't fall, Xie Jinghu will not have a say in the Xie family.
"Is the food okay?"
Xie Qian asked Wen Ying in a low voice, and Wen Ying nodded, "These are all my favorite dishes. My aunt prepared them with so much care."
Xie Qian's mouth corners raised.
The Xie family knows the Xie family best. In the past, only Xie Yuping was satisfied with Wen Ying, but today the whole family is satisfied with Wen Ying.
