Chapter 117 Travel Frog (Parents' Edition)



After dropping Wenxi off at home, Lin Shen didn't go straight to the company. Instead, he went home first, took a shower, and changed his clothes before going to the company.

I arrived at the company just in time for the first meeting of the afternoon.

This was the first time Liang Yi had encountered the president skipping work in all the time he had worked with Lin Shen. So when Lin Shen arrived at the company, Liang Yi asked with concern, "President, are you feeling unwell?"

"No, I was delayed this morning because of some personal matters."

Lin Shen informed Liang Yi of the meeting time change before 9:00 AM, so that Liang Yi could immediately inform everyone of the change after arriving at work, without delaying everyone's time.

"By the way, could you check my schedule and see if you could spare three to five days between the end of December and the beginning of January this year?"

Lin Shen thought for a moment and added, "Let's first check if there are any important schedules that can be moved. It's only October now, and a lot is uncertain. There will be more things to do in December, so try to keep the first half of the month as packed as possible."

"Yes, President. Do you want to take a vacation? We can arrange it around New Year's Day. With the New Year's Day holiday, you should be able to free up three or four days."

"Yeah, I want to rest for a few days. I'll try to arrange it then, but if it doesn't work out, then forget it."

December is the end of the year, and there will inevitably be many things to do, so it's possible that you won't be able to find the time.

The first thing Xia Wenxi did after arriving home was to take a shower and change her clothes. After feeling refreshed, she came out of the bathroom and sent a message to Ming Huan.

Last night, I was so grateful for Minghuan's thoughtfulness; she even thought of the makeup removal process.

Minghuan didn't have to go to work on Monday, so she replied to the message quickly.

No need to be polite. I just thought of it and mentioned it, in case Mr. Lin didn't think of it.

Minghuan had learned this lesson herself...

Let alone Lin Shen, even Xia Wenxi herself might not have thought of this. She sent a kissing emoji, saying, "[Sister Minghuan, I'm really falling in love with you]"

She exclaimed!

Xia Wensheng, how come he's so lucky!

That evening, Xia Wenxi received another piece of good news: her parents had finally had enough fun outside and were coming home.

Lately, she's been eating alone every day at home, and it doesn't taste as good anymore.

The two of them were taking a flight the next morning and would arrive home in the afternoon, so Xia Wenxi stayed home the next day instead of going out.

Ke Shurong and Xia Hengyuan arrived home around 3 p.m., and just like last time, they brought back quite a lot of things.

This time, Little Fish ran even faster than Xia Wenxi. As soon as Ke Shurong and Xia Hengyuan entered the door, it rushed over and meowed, even trying to pry open their bags.

"Oh dear, our little fish is welcoming me!" Xia Hengyuan put down his bag and picked up the little fish, but it still struggled to get down.

"Don't you even think about what's in that bag?"

Xia Wenxi, who came over later, sniffed when she heard this, "It smells a bit fishy. Mom and Dad, did you buy any seafood?"

The two claimed they were going to see the sea, and they visited several cities along the coastline from north to south, so it's not hard to guess they bought seafood.

The cured meat they brought back from their last trip was a hit with the whole family, so this time they went on another shopping spree wherever they went. They're back now, but there are still a lot of things they sent by courier that haven't arrived yet.

"Haha, I knew it!" Xia Hengyuan laughed heartily, opened his backpack, and said to his daughter, "We went to the beach and bought a lot of dried seafood, all good stuff!"

As he spoke, he took out a plastic bag from his bag, and then took out a dried squid from the plastic bag.

"This was specially brought back for our little fish to chew on."

However, it seems that the little fish wasn't very interested in chewing; it licked its teeth for a bit and then started playing with it.

Ke Shurong chimed in, "I already told you, this is too big, our little fish can't bite it!"

"It's alright, even if you can't chew it, it's fine as a toy, right?" Xia Hengyuan waved his hand dismissively. "I have more here!"

After Xia Hengyuan finished speaking, he took out another bag from the hidden compartment and handed it to Xia Wenxi.

"This is a small sea snail that your mom and I picked up on the beach. Here, you can hold it and play with it."

He didn't send any of these things by courier; he carried them in his bag back with the others.

Thank you, Mom and Dad!

Xia Wenxi opened the bag and took a look. Inside were all kinds of conches and seashells, which her parents had carefully selected at the beach. They were all very beautiful.

"Mom and Dad, you're back now, so you probably won't be going out for a while, right? I miss you so much."

Xia Wenxi rubbed against her mother's arm.

“We’re not going out.” Ke Shurong smiled at her daughter and said gently, “Your dad and I have already agreed that we’ll wait until after your exams before we go out. That way, we can go see the snow.”

"I want to see snow! I want to go too. I'll go with my parents."

She decided that no matter how she did on the exam, she would go out and have a good time for a few days before thinking about the re-examination.

"Okay, let's go together then."

Knowing that his parents had gone home, Xia Wensheng naturally returned home that evening as well, and received a bag full of all sorts of seashells and conches.

The brother and sister were treated equally; both received [their prizes].

After hearing that her parents weren't planning to go out recently, Xia Wensheng said happily, "Dad, then you can cover for me for a week next month."

"Oh? I'm already retired, son."

“I can be rehired even after retirement!” Xia Wensheng said confidently. This time he had a legitimate reason and wasn’t afraid that his father would disagree.

"I was thinking of visiting Huanhuan's parents this year, but Huanhuan and I are both busy at the end of the year, and we won't have time during the Chinese New Year."

So, if I think about it, there's only a little free time next month. Dad, could you cover for me at work for a week? You're just sitting around doing nothing anyway.

Although Minghuan had said before that if she was busy during the Spring Festival, her parents would come here to spend the Spring Festival with her, and that would allow them to meet.

However, Xia Wensheng felt that he needed to be sincere when meeting the parents, and it would be better if he went to their home in person.

this……

Although the brat's words weren't very pleasant, Xia Hengyuan really couldn't refuse this request!

"Okay, meeting Huanhuan's parents is a big deal. Go ahead and arrange the time, just let me know."

"Thank you, Dad!"

Xia Wensheng, unusually, picked up a piece of food for Xia Hengyuan.

When Ke Shurong heard that her son was going to meet his future in-laws, she was very happy and said generously, "Just tell Mom if you need anything!"

"We don't need you right now. Huanhuan's parents will come back to Fanshi for the New Year, and then the two families can have a meal together."

"Okay, okay!"

Ko Shu-jung was grinning from ear to ear. She'd already met the parents, so how far away could marriage be?
