Xia Xi drove slowly and arrived home half an hour later. The car slowly stopped. She unbuckled her seatbelt, grabbed Xu Yanfeng's hand, turned sideways, and asked him, "Do you want to come in with me?"
Going to her house and going to a restaurant are two different concepts. Xu Yanfeng thought about it and asked clearly before agreeing: "Who is in your family?"
"My dad is definitely not here. He runs a factory and is often busy and unseen. My sister should be the only one at home." Xia Xi shrugged. "Maybe she's not here either. I left early this morning. I wonder if she went to her painting class today."
Inserting her fingers into Xu Yanfeng's, Xia Xi smiled and said, "You've already met my grandmother and mother, so why are you afraid of meeting other people?"
In her mind, Xu Yanfeng was omnipotent, so why would he worry about meeting her parents?
Whether in front of Su Jinru or in front of his grandmother, he behaved politely, elegantly and calmly, with a steady temperament. He deserves full marks and should not have any concerns.
Xu Yanfeng clasped his fingers together and clasped her hand tightly: "I'm not afraid, I just feel it's rude. It's not right to come to you empty-handed."
Meeting her grandmother and her mother in the hotel was unexpected, and it could still be attributed to "ignorance is not a crime", but now that I am visiting them on my own initiative, it would be unreasonable not to bring any gifts.
"What's the big deal?" Xia Xi was carefree and casual. She patted his head with the hand that wasn't being held and said softly, "Just make up for it next time you come to visit us formally. No one will blame you."
After she finished speaking, she couldn't help laughing, because she imagined the scene of him officially coming to her house. In that situation, it should be the time for their relationship to take a step forward...
After locking the car, Xia Xi led Xu Yanfeng to the front door of his house, inserted the key into the keyhole, turned it around, and the door opened.
The living room was spacious and bright, with warmth everywhere. Xia Yue, upon hearing the door open, ran out of the kitchen holding a bunch of celery, staring at the two people at the entrance with wide eyes. Xia Xi was bending over and taking out a new pair of gray men's slippers from the shoe cabinet, opening the transparent plastic bag, and placing them at the boy's feet.
Xia Xi stood up with her hands on her knees and met Xia Yue's surprised gaze: "Sister, you are home."
Xia Yue's husband's family lived nearby, and she often came over. Therefore, Xia Xi was not surprised by her appearance at home. After speaking calmly, he asked, "Haven't you eaten yet?"
If she had known earlier, she would have packed some dishes to bring back.
Xu Yanfeng was tall and slender, with a very calm expression. He had run into Xia Xi's family one after another, and he had become immune to it.
Xia Yue opened her mouth and said hesitantly, "I haven't eaten yet. Xiaoxuan is home alone, and I'm worried that she might order takeout. Her body can't eat unhealthy food, so I came over to cook for her."
Xia Xi nodded. Her sister was indeed thoughtful. Xia Xuan was a sweet girl, usually easy to take care of. However, she was young and sometimes couldn't control her appetite, eating anything she wanted. This would make her feel sick and force her to go to the hospital for checkups, which was a waste of time.
"Xixi, this is..." Xia Yue's gaze lingered on Xu Yanfeng for a long time.
"Look at me, I forgot to introduce him to you." Xia Xi smiled, patted his forehead, and then grabbed Xu Yanfeng's hand and said solemnly, "He is my boyfriend, Xu Yanfeng. I have mentioned him to you many times before, you should have seen his photo."
Xu Yanfeng nodded and greeted Xia Yue calmly.
Of course, Xia Yue knew the boy in front of her was her sister's boyfriend! She also knew his name was Xu Yanfeng! She was just so surprised! Why was he even at home? Was it so soon that he had to meet the parents?
Could Xia Xi be pregnant?
Xia Yue stood there in a daze, his thoughts racing like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, soaring to the sky.
Xia Xi frowned slightly, walked up to her sister, and pushed her arm: "Don't you have any impression of him? No way."
"How...how could that be?" Xia Yue forced her thoughts back to their original state. "During the time you were pursuing him, you reported your progress to me regularly. You even showed me him during our video calls. I was deeply impressed!"
Xia Yue slowly regained her composure and entertained Xu Yanfeng in a parental manner: "Please sit down. Would you like some tea or water? We also have juice drinks and other things in the refrigerator."
"You're busy, don't bother me. We'll leave after Xixi finishes getting her things." Xu Yanfeng said politely, "You haven't had lunch yet."
"Have you two eaten?" Xia Yue asked.
"We ate at the restaurant." Xia Xi replied.
"What do you want to get?" Xia Yue asked questions one after another, "Where are you going to play?"
Xia Xi stopped answering. The corners of her lips were inexplicably embarrassed, and her eyes began to avoid Xia Yue's gaze.
Her demeanor was really rare. Xia Yue was stunned for a moment, and her curiosity grew stronger. She asked with a smile: "Why, can't you tell me?" She thought that the question she asked was normal and did not involve privacy.
Xia Xi coughed softly and mouthed "secret" to her.
She pushed Xu Yanfeng's back with both hands and settled him on the sofa. Before leaving, she touched his face and coaxed him like she would a child, "I'm going upstairs to get something. You stay here for a while."
Xu Yanfeng: “…”
Xia Xi ran up the stairs in her slippers. Her cheeks gradually became warmer. She felt it and put the phone case against her face to cool it down, but it had little effect, probably because she ran too fast.
Xia Yue glanced at Xia Xi's hurried back, squinting her eyes and thinking for a long time, but still couldn't guess what she was tinkering with. She had always been eccentric. Xia Yue shook her head and laughed, then went to make tea for Xu Yanfeng.
A cup of Biluochun was brought to the coffee table. Xu Yanfeng bowed slightly, picked it up, and thanked Xia Yue.
Xia Yue has a gentle personality and is polite and reserved in her words and actions. At this moment, she did not go to the kitchen to busy herself, but was chatting with Xu Yanfeng in the living room.
