Xiang Zhengyi hardened his heart and didn't look at Xiang Yun, but instead glanced at Shen Shixun, "Since it's your fault..."
"dad!"
He knelt down on both knees, pleading, "Please promise me, let Zhizhi stay with me."
Everyone tensed up, including Xiang Nanzhi. "Dad, whether you agree or not, I'm going to be with Shen Shixun."
“Zhizhi…”
“I absolutely will not agree to…” Xiang Zhengyi held the teacup in his hand, hesitating to speak, “I will absolutely not agree to let Zhizhi leave the ancient city.”
"Zhizhi won't leave the ancient city, I'll stay."
Shen Shixun said earnestly, "My child and I will stay."
Xiang Zhengyi's biggest worry is that Xiang Nanzhi will compromise for Shen Shixun and go to a place that is completely unfamiliar to her. He can't accept that his daughter and grandson will not be by his side.
"Tangyuan, get up."
Xiang Zhengyi put down his teacup and helped the child kneeling on the ground to his feet. The child was very young, but seemed very sensible.
Compared to when he was a child, his skin was much darker, but he looked more like a boy now, with strong hands. "Grandfather, please let Dad and Mom be together."
Xiang Nanzhi looked at Xiang Yun. This kid had come all the way from Saigon to the ancient city by plane with her, and she had never seen him so eloquent.
He's quite capable when it really matters; she doesn't even remember when Shen Shixun taught him.
"grandfather."
Xiang Zhengyi looked at Xiang Yun, then at Shen Shixun kneeling on the ground, and asked, "Would you have any ulterior motives towards Zhizhi?"
"Won't."
"Then sign it. If you dare to betray Zhizhi, everything you own will belong to Zhizhi."
"dad……"
Does your family lack that kind of money? No, we don't!
But Xiang Zhengyi knew that for a man like that, this meant he held the man's life in his hands.
"I've already drafted the documents. As long as you sign them, I'll agree to let you be with Zhizhi and I won't make things difficult for you anymore."
"As a number?"
"To be counted".
"I'll sign."
In fact, Xiang Zhengyi hadn't prepared any contract. He was just waiting to see if Shen Shixun would leave him a way out when he returned. If he did, then he might still be able to leave the ancient city again.
If he holds nothing back, then there's no need for him to continue making things difficult for him.
Ma Xiaorong couldn't keep an eye on Xiang Nian. As soon as she heard that Xiang Nanzhi had returned, Xiang Nian rushed to the outside of the study to wait.
The little girl was well cared for by Xiang Nanzhi; she had fair and tender skin and stood obediently outside without crying or fussing.
She was slightly startled when she heard someone inside call "Grandfather," and looked up at Ma Xiaorong.
Ma Xiaorong felt a little embarrassed, so she said to her, "Niannian, let's go play first, and come back later, okay?"
She shook her head, thinking of Xiang Nanzhi. She was raised by him and was very dependent on him...
After a while, the door opened, and Xiang Nanzhi, holding Tangyuan's hand, walked out of the study with Shen Shixun. Having gained Xiang Zhengyi's approval, both of them were in a good mood.
It was Tangyuan's first time leaving the grassland, and she was very curious about everything. She looked around and kept pestering Nanzhi to hug her.
"Dad, Mom is so fair-skinned."
"Your mother has always been very fair-skinned."
Xiang Yun still can't believe that the woman in front of him is actually his mother.
"Deji, get off your mother, don't let her hold you."
Shen Shixun knew that Xiang Yunzhong was a big eater and a fast runner. He ran around here and there every day and exercised frequently, so he was quite burly.
His mother raised him single-handedly; sometimes she couldn't even outrun him, and would be out of breath after carrying him for just a few steps.
If even a mother is like this, how much more so Xiang Nanzhi?
Xiang Yun had just jumped off Xiang Nanzhi when he bumped into a little girl who was about his age.
Xiang Yun was dressed very plainly, even a bit rustic, and hadn't had time to dress up yet, but the girl was very delicate and looked somewhat similar to Xiang Nanzhi at first glance, with a soft voice.
Seeing Shen Shixun and Xiang Yun, he was even a little frightened.
Xiang Nanzhi glanced at Ma Xiaorong. Didn't he tell her to take good care of Xiang Nian?
Xiang Nian is a fragile and sensitive child. When her mother talks to other children, Xiang Nian gets upset and cries, asking if her mother doesn't like her anymore.
Ma Xiaorong said helplessly, "I told her, but she insisted on waiting for you to come out, so I..."
“Xiang Nian”.
"Mom..." Her voice choked with emotion. She looked at Shen Shixun, then at Xiang Nanzhi, her voice trembling, "Mom, who is he?"
"he……"
Xiang Nanzhi squatted down and said gently, "He's your father, and this is your brother."
Xiang Yun looked up at Shen Shixun, who patted his son's head and said, "Little sister."
"younger sister."
"I don't want a brother."
Xiang Nian burst into tears, "My brother will fight me for Mommy, I don't want my brother, Mommy..."
Xiang Nian burst into tears. Xiang Nanzhi said gently, "Don't cry. Your brother won't take your mother away from you. Don't worry, Xiang Nian..."
"don't want."
Xiang Nian cried and was hard to comfort. Shen Shixun could tell that Xiang Nanzhi must spoil the child a lot...
After finally managing to appease Xiang Nian, Xiang Nanzhi then tried to appease Xiang Yun. Xiang Yun, however, had a strong mentality and didn't stoop to Xiang Nian's level. Instead, he took a wooden sword and started hacking and slashing wildly in Xiang Nanzhi's garden, killing all the flowers in the yard.
As he stepped downstairs, Xiang Nanzhi was speechless.
Ma Xiaorong glanced at her. The young master had finally returned, and no one dared to stop him from doing whatever he wanted. Not to mention the flowers in the yard, even if he tore the yard down, no one would dare to say anything.
Xiang Zhengyi was happy, sitting outside basking in the sun and drinking tea, keeping Xiang Yun company, while Shen Shixun chatted with him.
