After I left home with a broken heart, my whole family begged me to come back

Chapter 117 Preparation before school starts

Xie Chen nodded, changed his clothes and went out.

Although I am in seclusion with Kong Yun, I can't really be isolated from the world after all.

Xie Chen would still take some time to check his phone before going to bed every night.

Lu Yuanyuan has asked him out several times, but he always refuses. Lu Yuanyuan is starting to get angry.

Xie Chen drove to the Lu family. On the one hand, he wanted to meet Lu Yuanyuan, and on the other hand, he also wanted to know whether the Lu family had found any useful information during this period.

Seeing Xie Chen coming in, Lu Li was stunned for a moment, but still smiled and asked Xie Chen to sit down.

Lu Yuanyuan received a call from Xie Chen early in the morning and knew that Xie Chen was coming to see her. When she heard the noise in the living room, she ran down from upstairs.

“Xie Chen!” Lu Yuanyuan rushed to Xie Chen and sat on the sofa with him. “If you don’t show up, I’m going to post a missing person notice!”

Lu Yuanyuan pouted and said jokingly.

"Are you worried that I'll lose it?" Xie Chen joked.

Xie Chen and Lu Yuanyuan were arguing with each other, while Lu Li and Lu Tingfeng were quite unhappy watching from the side.

The two of them were still sitting on the side. Was Xie Chen completely ignoring them?
"Cough, cough, cough!" Lu Li coughed several times before he said in a deep voice, "Xie Chen, you didn't come here just to see Yuanyuan, did you?"

Xie Chen said seriously, "Half a month ago, Uncle Lu said he wanted to find out which family started to go downhill. Have you found any clues now?"

Lu Li's expression changed slightly, "You are right, it is the Jiang family."

Although the Lu family is not as powerful as the Su family and the Jiang family, the Lu family is also considered to be among the top ones.

It is not that difficult for the Lu family to find out such a small amount of information.

Xie Chen pursed his lips, "So, the reason why the Jiang family has developed to this point is because it has been using shameful means to borrow other people's luck?"

Lu Li looked serious and said nothing, but his expression said it all.

"By doing this, the Jiang family is making enemies with all the wealthy families. I will deal with this matter as soon as possible." Lu Li's face was gloomy.

The Jiang family is the number one family in Shanghai, but they have extended their hands to Jingzhou, hoping to borrow fortune from the big families in Jingzhou. This is really a good calculation.

"Well, Uncle Lu, thank you for your concern." Xie Chen said, standing up. "Yuanyuan and I are about to start school. Before school starts, let's go out for a walk and prepare some gifts for our new classmates."

As Xie Chen spoke, his eyes fell on Lu Yuanyuan.

Lu Yuanyuan immediately stood up, walked to Xie Chen, and shook Xie Chen's hand naturally.

Seeing the two people holding hands, Lu Li felt his blood pressure was a little high.

He had worked hard to grow flowers for eighteen years, but in the end, someone else took away even the pots.

However, Lu Yuanyuan could not understand Lu Li's feelings at all. She held Xie Chen's hand and followed Xie Chen out the door happily.

She hadn't seen Xie Chen for half a month, and she felt so uncomfortable.

The two of them went out, and Lu Yuanyuan sat in the passenger seat of Xie Chen's car. While fastening her seat belt, she asked, "Where are we going?"

Xie Chen replied, "Let's go buy some things. Some things have been sold in Shanghai, and I'm afraid we won't be able to buy them."

Lu Yuanyuan nodded thoughtfully, "Okay."

Xie Chen and Lu Yuanyuan drove to the mall.

At the entrance of the shopping mall, I met Xie Huaishan and Mu Wanting.

The two seemed to have been waiting for a long time. When they saw Xie Chen, they smiled and said, "Ah Chen."

Even though he knew that these two people were his biological parents, Xie Chen still felt a little uncomfortable when facing them. "We haven't seen you for a while..." Mu Wanting said a little awkwardly, "You are about to go to Shanghai for school. We want to have a meal with you before you go to Shanghai."

"It won't take you long," Mu Wanting asked Xie Chen's opinion carefully, like a child asking for candy.

Looking at Mu Wanting who was so cautious, Xie Chen felt a little uncomfortable.

The person who should have been closest to him became the most familiar stranger because of Su Yurao's madness.

"Then let's have lunch together!" Xie Chen suggested.

As Xie Chen's words came out, Mu Wanting's face suddenly showed a smile, "Okay, then it's settled! You and Yuanyuan go shopping first! Your dad and I will go book a restaurant."

Mu Wanting knew her limits very well. She knew that if she and Xie Huaishan stood here, Lu Yuanyuan and Xie Chen would feel uncomfortable, so she found an excuse and separated from Xie Chen and the others.

Seeing Xie Huaishan and Mu Wanting walking out of the mall while talking in low voices, Lu Yuanyuan narrowed her eyes slightly, "Neither of them did anything wrong."

"I know," Xie Chen said softly, "I just need some time to buffer."

From uncle to father, no matter how adaptable he is, it is impossible for him to call him uncle one moment and dad the next.

Lu Yuanyuan pursed her lips slightly, "Although I shouldn't be involved in this matter, but don't let them wait too long."

Lu Yuanyuan let out a long breath, "They have been looking for eighteen years, waiting for eighteen years, and have gradually grown old..."

"A son wants to support his parents but they are no longer around...Don't leave regrets in your life." After Lu Yuanyuan said this, her eyes turned red.

Xie Chen noticed that Lu Yuanyuan was different, but he didn't ask much. He just thought that Lu Yuanyuan was a girl who was more emotional than him.

"Thank you for enlightening me." The embarrassment that had been preventing Xie Chen from taking that step seemed to begin to ease.

Lu Yuanyuan smiled with the corners of her lips pulled, "I just think that Uncle Xie and Aunt Xie are also pitiful people."

Xie Chen lowered his eyes. Yes, Xie Huaishan and Mu Wanting were also pitiful people.

But Su Yurao, who caused all this, disappeared from the face of the earth after various outrageous actions.

Xie Huaishan has sent many people to look for him during this period, but there is no news at all.

"Let's go, let's go buy what we need." Xie Chen changed the subject.

The other party has harmed me for eighteen years and it is obvious that he doesn't want me to have an easy life.

Well, the more comfortable your life is now, the other party will definitely try to trip you up.

There will be a chance to meet again.

Lu Yuanyuan nodded, and went into the mall with Xie Chen to start shopping.

They bought a lot of Jingzhou's specialties.

Everyone is looking forward to the upcoming college life.

After completing the shopping and putting all the stuff in the trunk, Xie Chen received a call from Xie Huaishan.

Xie Huaishan told Xie Chen the location of the hotel and asked him to take Lu Yuanyuan there.

Xie Chen responded readily.

This meal was not only a farewell banquet given to him by Xie Huaishan and his wife, but also the beginning of the closer relationship between their family.

Lu Yuanyuan was right. Xie Huaishan and Mu Wanting were his biological parents. There was no need for him to let his parents suffer the consequences of other people's mistakes.
