Zhou Jiyun naturally wouldn't object to Xie Jing's proposal: "Okay, then let's go together."
They were all quick-witted and quick-thinking. After simply packing their luggage, they headed straight for the airport. On the way, Xie Jing spoke to Li Ma, who patted her chest and promised to take good care of Diandian and Dali.
By 7pm, everyone had arrived at the Capital Airport. As soon as they walked out of the terminal, two young men came running over. "Is this Jingjing and Jiyun? Welcome back. I'm your cousin Cheng Jin."
"I'm your cousin Cheng Yu. Come on in the car. Grandpa, grandma, uncles, and aunts are waiting for you in the compound."
Xie Jing looked at Cheng Shuying. She had met the Yun family's relatives yesterday. Although she had heard Cheng Shuying talk about her family, she had never met them through video.
Cheng Shuying patted her shoulder, and when she looked at Cheng Jin and Cheng Yu, she smiled a rare smile: "Are your grandparents in good health?"
Cheng Yu sighed, "Grandma heard that it was the Jin family and Yun Hua who were responsible, and she was so angry that she only ate breakfast today."
"But she will definitely be happy to see Jingjing and her brother-in-law come back." He looked at Zhou Jiyun with a kind and friendly look.
Zhou Jiyun also smiled at the other party. Generally speaking, Xie Jing's two cousins had good personalities, at least they were not annoying.
Yun Lan checked the time: "Let's go back. Has the Jin family arrived yet?"
This matter has escalated to the entire family. Of course, the leaders of both families must be present to discuss it face to face.
Cheng Jin's face was gloomy. "I arrived at dinner time. I saw that the atmosphere in the living room was very solemn."
Cheng Shuying gathered her clothes tightly, opened the car door, and motioned for Xie Jing to get in. "Then hurry back and take care of things. Don't delay Jingjing's final exam."
Cheng Yu forced a smile and said, "Try your best. This matter is quite troublesome if we try to sort it out."
Yun Lan: "No matter how troublesome it is, we can't let it go easily. Forget it, let's go back and talk about it."
They drove in silence all the way to the compound. Because Xie Jing and Zhou Jiyun were strangers, the guards checked them very carefully. Yun Lan put his hand on the car window and said, "My daughter and son-in-law."
The soldier at the gate was stunned for a moment, then took a closer look at Xie Jing and Zhou Jiyun. He thought to himself, they all knew everyone in the compound, but they had never heard that Yun Lan had a daughter.
With such doubts in mind, the other party did not ask any more questions. After checking the documents, he waved and let him pass.
Xie Jing leaned against the car window: "So this is what the compound looks like."
Yun Lan: "You'll get used to it. It's a pity you didn't grow up in a compound. There are still a few girls your age."
Xie Jing looked at Cheng Shuying: "Did Mom have any good friends in the past?"
Cheng Shuying understood: "I used to focus on studying and didn't have any close friends. They were basically just relatives. After I got married, I did get to know a few of Yunlan's friends, but didn't you lose them later? Our interactions with friends gradually decreased."
Yun Lan's face was as gloomy as water. "It's mainly because we feel sad when we see others getting married, having children, and living harmoniously. Gradually, we stopped attending these gatherings. Every time we go, we feel sad."
Xie Jing sighed silently, "I don't think people have to have friends when they grow up. Didn't Mom come over before she met Dad? I think I'm pretty good."
She felt that she was the heroine of the incident, but everyone around her was living a very miserable life, except for her, who was living a relatively good life.
Zhou Jiyun held Xie Jing's hand tightly, slowly interlacing their fingers. He could best understand Yun Lan and Cheng Shuying's feelings at this moment. The ecstasy of regaining what they had lost, coupled with the grievances and resentment of the past, all these complex emotions intertwined, it was truly exhausting.
He knew Xie Jing didn't necessarily have the same feelings for Yun Lan and Cheng Shuying as she had for him. After all, the couple had never appeared in her life. But he knew Xie Jing had softened her heart towards Yun Lan and Cheng Shuying.
After all, they are her biological parents. They have almost exhausted all their efforts to find her over the years. This heavy and painful experience would make her soft-hearted even towards an outsider, let alone her biological parents.
Blood ties are sometimes incredibly fragile, but sometimes they are so heavy that they make people feel sad and suffocated.
After watching Yun Lan and others' car drive away, the young soldier at the guard post returned to his original position, but a piece of news spread quickly in the compound.
"Have you heard? Yun Lan, the second son of the Yun family, seems to have found his long-lost daughter?"
"Is this true? After all these years, you can still find it back?"
"Isn't it true? I happened to be leaving the house at that time and passed by Yun Lan's car. I heard it clearly when he checked the documents at the door. He admitted it himself. That was his daughter, and it seemed she was even married."
"I don't know how the child is growing up or what kind of family he's marrying into."
"Who knows? But I saw her from a distance, and she looks quite like the old lady of the Yun family. You could say she's almost identical to Yun Lan and his wife. She has basically no similarities at all."
"But he's quite handsome, wearing a pair of thin-rimmed glasses. He looks very gentle. I don't know what he does for a living, but I see he's dressed very well."
"The Yunlan couple have also worked hard these years, enduring this hardship. He is a few years younger than my second son, and now Yunlan has white hair."
"Isn't it someone else's fault? Even if they stab their own family, they won't show mercy."
"What do you mean? Any gossip?"
"The Jin family is here, please take your time to savor it."
"It seems like this is a thief in the family."
"What do you think they are after?"
"What can she gain? Yun Hua has always been a competitive and strong person. How can she be happy if the Yun family has another girl?"
"Yunhua's daughter, Jin Xiao, behaves almost identically to her."
Xie Jing and Zhou Jiyun had no idea that the compound was so well-informed. This was their first time in such a place. Xie Jing was naturally indifferent, and her emotions didn't fluctuate much.
Zhou Jiyun had seen too many ups and downs, so only external things related to Xie Jing could cause his emotions to fluctuate. As for other things, he didn't feel much.
In his eyes, this was just Xie Jing's grandparents' home. They would basically be in S City in the future and wouldn't come here very often.
Cheng Jin was also looking at Zhou Jiyun subtly along the way. Cheng Jin admitted that he couldn't like this man who had abducted his cousin long ago.
He didn't have a problem with Zhou Jiyun, but with anyone who occupied the position of his cousin's husband. He had an opinion on everyone equally. Just like Yun Lan, after all, the Cheng family really wanted girls.
As Xie Jing and the others headed deeper into the compound, Yun Hua and Jin Xiao, who had been forcibly called back, became restless. Jin Yuan was the better choice; at this point, he could only deny it.
