Chapter 129 Reconciliation
When he walked out of the door, the person outside had already left. Fang Xin didn't know Xu Shi'an had been there. He only saw An Mei looking at Fang Xin with red eyes, and if he looked closely, he could see some gratitude in her eyes.
"Aunt?" Fang Xin was hugged by An Mei. She thanked her softly, "Thank you, thank you Xinxin. It's a good thing you were willing to tell me. Otherwise, what would we do?"
It was the first time Fang Xin heard An Mei sound so helpless, and she felt distressed. It turned out that such a powerful family would also have unspeakable family situations, powerless An Mei, and two stubborn kids who never gave in.
An Mei told Fang Xin that over the past year, thanks to Fang Xin's arrival, otherwise the number of times Xu Shi'an came back could be counted on one's fingers.
"He seldom came back before?"
He knew that Xu Shi'an had always been a powerful character in the original script, but no one had ever told him how he became so powerful. Perhaps the sadness behind it was unknown, but he must have gone through a lot of pain.
An Mei nodded, recalling the past, "When he came back from your place, he insisted on living on campus, and I agreed. Until graduation, he never mentioned coming back to help the group."
"When he was 23, his father called him back to discuss things. You know the rule that we don't talk at the dinner table. The two of them started arguing right there at the dinner table that day."
An Mei's brows were still furrowed as she recalled that day. "Shi An doesn't like to communicate with us. You saw that. He was very quiet and unpopular the year before. But he's much better now."
An Mei looked at Fang Xin gratefully and said, "It's not that he doesn't like to talk. He was also a talkative person when you first met."
Fang Xin recalled the scene of their first meeting. Xu Shi'an was a very lively person who would play with him and talk to him. In the original script, Xu Shi'an was a cold person when he first appeared. The screenwriter did not describe what he looked like as a child. That was a past that Xu Shi'an had buried long ago.
"It's us, we made him become like this." An Mei's eyes suddenly turned red and tears burst out, scaring Fang Xin so much that he didn't even have time to wipe them away.
"He didn't get close to us because we were indifferent to him. At first, I only focused on his education and didn't care about his emotions. I even made him understand his father. I would nudge him to go to the company to study on weekends. He also had hobbies at the time, which I obliterated. His father was the same as me, even more strict."
No wonder, no wonder Xu Shi'an is so quiet and even indifferent to everyone. It's because he himself is affected by this environment.
"After I took you in, I changed a lot. I began to accept your lively personality. Compared to Shi An, you are simply a little sun." An Mei looked at Fang Xin with relief. "I was thinking, can you spend more time with Shi An, so that he can get better and stop being so unkind? I can stop forcing him, and his father can stop putting pressure on him. As long as he can get better, it's fine."
Fang Xin couldn't help but sigh in her heart. It turned out that in the original script, An Mei liked Fang Xin not only because she was her friend's child, but also because she hoped to use Fang Xin to reverse Xu Shi's case.
Thinking of this, Fang Xin felt a little disappointed and lowered his head. An Mei probably knew what he was thinking, "At first, I really like you now."
"So you started to match me with him..."
An Mei immediately said, "This is my own idea. I'm not using you. I really like you."
This is true, and it coincides with what happened before. An Mei in the original script was like this. At first, she thought Fang Xin could be useful to her, so she kept trying to bring the two of them together, but Fang Xin was the only one willing to do so.
Later, when Xu Shi'an finally found true love, he changed a lot. An Mei still insisted on her own opinion at that time, but it was Xu Shi'an's heart-to-heart talk that made her change her mind. As a result, Fang Xin gradually lost contact with Xu's house.
Come to think of it, everyone is selfish, and they will naturally be nice to whoever is useful to them.
He sighed slightly, fortunately he came. Even if he was not with Xu Shi'an, he believed that An Mei would love him all his life.
The two chatted for a long time. Before leaving, An Mei pulled him aside and said, "Go see Shi An and apologize to him on behalf of his father... on behalf of us."
As proud as they are, they usually choose to take a step back when they say this. Fang Xin nodded and left.
After returning to the apartment, he did not press the doorbell, but directly entered the password to enter Xu Shi'an's house.
It was pitch black inside, with no lights on. Only the bright light from outside came in through the window with no curtains drawn, barely enough to be visible inside the room.
Xu Shi'an was lying on the sofa, with the faint aroma of wine filling the air. He covered his eyes with one arm and did not change his clothes. He looked so decadent and corrupt.
Fang Xin didn't turn on the light. She sat on the floor in front of the sofa and leaned against Xu Shi'an. "Brother, it's me."
Hearing the familiar voice, Xu Shi'an slowly put down his hand and hummed, "I know."
"I'm right to stand on your side. From today on, you can do whatever you want!" Fang Xin said with a little joy in his tone. He rubbed Xu Shi'an's arm, "Are you happy?"
Xu Shi'an said nothing and did not move. Normally, he would become restless whenever Fang Xin got close to him. This was the first time that he stayed there so obediently without moving, and there was no extra words.
"Brother, they asked me to apologize to you." Fang Xin held Xu Shi'an's hand and squeezed it, as if to comfort an animal. "They all want their son to be successful, but their method is wrong."
"I don't want to use their love for you to hold you hostage. Loving you is not an excuse. Think carefully about what is good for you."
Having said this, Fang Xin was ready to leave. He was pulled to the sofa, facing Xu Shi'an's crystal clear eyes. He couldn't help but feel distressed. He kissed his wet eyelashes and gently leaned against Xu Shi'an.
The other person's strong heartbeat rang in his ears, soothing his somewhat excited heart, "I will always be by your side."
To Xu Shi'an, these words were more valuable than all the wealth. His lover's words that he would always be by his side were simply words of love without any sweet words.
He kissed Fang Xin's hair, his eyes tender, "Okay."
Better than thousands of love words, every move is a comfort.
The next time she met Xu Shijie was on the day she agreed to go home every month. Fang Xin came back early and saw Xu Shijie sitting in the living room early, reading a newspaper in his hand. In fact, he had already looked outside the door many times.
Fang Xin suppressed his inner laughter and waited tensely for Xu Shi'an to come back.
He called Xu Shi'an first. Xu Shi'an spoke hesitantly and unclearly. Fang Xin was still wondering when there was a sudden movement outside the door.
When I looked up, I saw Xu Shi'an coming back. Unfortunately, there was someone following him.
"Hello, uncle and auntie! I'm He Miaomiao, and I've met auntie before~"
He Miaomiao has a sweet smile and looks very lovable. She looks gentle and lovely in her Chanel style dress. She and Xu Shian look a good match when they stand together.
An Mei saw the awkward look on the person's face for a moment, then responded and called the person in to ask, "It's Miaomiao, come and sit down."
He Miaomiao responded by walking to An Mei's side. She glanced at Fang Xin with a somewhat proud look on her face, "Didn't you arrange a blind date for Shi An last time? Why did you cancel it when it wasn't even my turn yet?"
Fang Xin's ears perked up when she heard this. What blind date?
An Mei smiled and said, "It's not me who cancelled it. It's just that Shi An didn't like blind dates at all. He was stupid at that time and couldn't make up his mind. I made the decision for him this time. If you are unhappy, I will come to your house to make it up to you someday."
He Miaomiao paused. She had not expected An Mei to speak so directly, even a little harshly. She laughed flatteringly, "No, it's just that I didn't get to meet Brother Shi An, so I feel a little regretful."
"Are you here specifically to accuse me this time?" An Mei had a smile on her face, but her eyes were not friendly, and she even seemed to want to drive her away.
"Of course not. I just met Brother Shi An on the road and came in to see you, Auntie."
An Mei exchanged a few polite words with her and then started saying that she was going to have dinner. She did not invite He Miaomiao, intending to wait for her to understand the meaning of her words.
He Miaomiao was not the one to argue. When she heard that they didn't welcome her at all, she left in embarrassment.
After dinner, Xu Shijie called Xu Shian and asked him to go upstairs to the study.
Before going upstairs, Fang Xin looked at Xu Shi'an and nodded, and the other party lowered his eyes and paced to follow.
Fang Xin was getting a little anxious waiting downstairs. An Mei came out of the kitchen with two drinks and asked, "Can you bring me a drink upstairs?"
Fang Xin looked at An Mei gratefully and went upstairs without stopping. The door of the study was not closed tightly. Fang Xin subconsciously looked inside and the situation was not bad. Neither of them blushed.
"If you want to do it, then give it a try."
Xu Shijie didn't seem to care about what he said, and he looked exactly like Xu Shi'an. Apart from anything else, the two of them were from the same school in terms of temperament and appearance.
"Well...thank you, Dad." Xu Shi'an sat in front of him properly, looking a little restrained.
Just as Fang Xin was about to knock on the door after seeing that the situation was good, Xu Shijie said something surprising, "You should thank Fang Xin for being with you. If it weren't for him, I would never have given you this opportunity."
Upon hearing this, not only Xu Shi'an, but Fang Xin was also stunned. He didn't know Xu Shijie would say these words so frankly. Originally, the credit was not his, but now it has become his.
Feeling a little embarrassed to knock on the door, he was about to back away, only to hear Xu Shian say, "I know."
He lowered his head and smiled softly. Xu Shijie seemed to have never seen him like this before, and there was some surprise in his eyes.
"Dad, do you mind?"
Xu Shijie was silent for a while, "As long as you are happy, it has nothing to do with me."
Xu Shi'an is the last bloodline of the Xu family. Falling in love with a boy means she is the last one. Fang Xin bit her lip and backed away.
"Our family will be extinct. Do you really not mind?" Xu Shi'an said in a low voice, but the firmness in his words was unquestionable. "I will not have children. I only want him."
The last time Xu Shijie and An Mei said that there would be progress soon, it was not Xu Shian who told him, but he himself observed it.
The look on Xu Shian's face as he anxiously waited for news and waited for someone, and his behavior when Fang Xin came back was completely different from usual. As a father, how could he not know?
"I know everything, but you are my son."
