When Xu Cheng appeared in the east room, everyone's eyes were burning with passion.
Excitement.
In the blink of an eye, it had been more than 20 years. They thought they would never see each other again. The reason why parting and reuniting was so precious was because time didn't hold them back.
The moment Elder Ye saw Xu Cheng, he couldn't help but smile.
This was the most natural and joyful smile he had shown in the past 10 years. His face was full of wrinkles, but his eyes were full of light, as if he had seen the last ray of light before death.
Xu Cheng patted the shoulder of an old friend he hadn't seen in a long time, and then he sat down next to Elder Ye, hugged him, and shouted to the people outside, "Those who want to take a family photo, come in. Someone come and help me take a picture."
Ye Xiu and the others immediately came in.
Then, Nie Wenbo quickly grabbed the camera from Ye Xiu's hand, trying to get a chance to help.
Those related to Xu Cheng and the Ye Family, plus Lan Ting, her husband Zhou Zhen, and their children were also pulled over. In total, there were more than 10 people standing in two rows in the front and back.
The young second generation took the initiative to stand behind them, and the kids were in the front row being carried by their parents. In the middle, the three seats were Xu Cheng with his arm around Elder Ye on the left, Department Head Ye on the right, and next to him was Department Head Ye's wife, followed by Ye Xiu, Lan Ting, and the kids.
And on Xu Cheng's side, Xu Xiaoming and Xu Lei, followed by Lin Dong, and behind them were Ye Rong and Ye Hua. These two would glance at Xu Cheng from time to time, and they were simply too excited.
Nie Wenbo couldn't help but tease the two, "Can you two look at the camera and stop staring at your Uncle Xu?"
Ye Rong and Ye Hua were very embarrassed, and Xu Cheng turned around to look at the two.
"Are you A 'Rong and A' Hua?" Xu Cheng asked the two.
The two excitedly nodded. "Uncle, I'm A 'Rong."
"I'm A 'Hua."
Xu Cheng nodded. "Not bad, don't be like your dad, still a department head after more than 20 years."
Ye Xiu bitterly smiled.
The two kids didn't know how to respond. Other than Elder Ye, there was no one else who dared to talk about Ye Xiu like that. Elder Ye was getting old and didn't care about the business anymore, so the only one who dared to talk about Ye Xiu was probably Xu Cheng.
Only then did Xu Cheng look at the camera. Everyone looked at the camera again.
After Nie Wenbo found everyone's expression, he took a few pictures in a row and made an OK gesture. "Okay!"
After the group photo, Elder Ye wasn't in a hurry to catch up with Xu Cheng. Instead, he gave some time to the younger generation. He asked someone to help him back to his bed, knowing that Xu Cheng would come and chat with him later.
Ye Xiu pulled his wife Nie Wenshan over and said, "Brother, this is your sister-in-law, Wenshan."
Nie Wenshan was the Nie family's old man's most beloved granddaughter. Back then, the two of them had gotten married because they were in love. If it wasn't for Nie Wenshan, Ye Xiu really didn't plan on marrying the children of the other four families. After all, they had grown up together and were too familiar with each other.
Because of this, the other four elders kept nagging Elder Ye all day long.
Elder Ye couldn't do anything about it. After Ye Xiu took up a position in the guild, his wings were no longer tied to the family. So, he had his own opinions and thoughts, and the family couldn't point fingers at him.
However, it was also because Ye Xiu had his own career that people thought his future was limitless, and there were tons of women who had their eyes on him. But in the end, Ye Xiu still chose Wen Shan, who was a good match for him. It wasn't for any other reason, but because the other four families were on the decline, he wanted to unite and take care of each other.
The wedding was held the day before Old Man Nie's death. The next day, Old Man Nie passed away peacefully with a smile on his face. It could be said that he had something to rely on.
"Greetings, Big Brother." Wen Shan bowed slightly and greeted politely. It could also be considered as a way of acknowledging a relative.
"Okay, I heard everything. You are a good wife." Xu Cheng smiled and shook hands with her.
"No, Wen Shan isn't good enough. Wen Shan didn't help my husband's career take another step forward. Wen Shan feels guilty," Wen Shan joked. She seemed to be referring to Xu Cheng's teasing about Ye Xiu's 20 years of stagnation in his career.
Ye Xiu didn't expect her to tease him like that and glared at her.
However, not only was Xu Cheng not angry, he even laughed out loud.
"Hahahaha … Interesting, you really are Ye Xiu's wife, your temperament is very similar to his."
"Sorry for making you laugh." Ye Xiu didn't expect his wife to be so direct.
In fact, Wen Shan regretted it right after she said it. She awkwardly and carefully stood beside Ye Xiu. Only now did she remember that the guy in front of her had a faint friendship with the five elders. Not to mention the fact that he was the one who had created this world.
Hundreds of flowers bloomed.
"Hey, this is nothing. This shows that you are in Little Sister-in-law's heart. As a wife, she can be imperfect, but as long as she thinks about this family and puts you first in her heart, that's enough." Xu Cheng didn't blame her and instead praised her.
Because back then, Lin Chuxue was also brainlessly supporting him from behind!
Nie Wenbo took the opportunity to come over. "Big Brother Cheng, you didn't forget about me, right?"
Xu Cheng smiled. "Of course not. Nie Wenbo, I still remember you."
Nie Wenbo let out a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Lan Ting brought her kids over to meet Xu Cheng.
She had two daughters, and when she met Zhou Zhen, she wasn't young anymore. She was already satisfied with having two daughters.
However, the Zhou Family placed all their focus on Zhou Zhen, and they were afraid that he wouldn't have a son to inherit his family, so they passed the youngest son of Old Third Zhou to Zhou Zhen. With Lan Ting's status, wouldn't it be a waste not to have a son? Then who would inherit Zhou Zhen's resources in the future? Old Man Zhou was not a fool. He knew that he should not let the goodies flow to outsiders. He was very smart.
"How has Zhou Lian been serving the Young Madam all these years? Has she followed your wishes? If she hasn't done a good job, I want Little Blossom to replace her. "
Xu Cheng waved his hand. "Zhou Lian has done a good job, and Little Xue is very satisfied. Now, my two kids still have a sense of approval for her."
"That's good. Come, let Auntie Lan take a good look at you. Every year, I see people coming to pay their respects to your parents, and I knew you would still be here after all these years. I was sure you would appear."
"I'm not an immortal that can cut ties with relationships, and I still have to acknowledge my family. I just want to let go of everything and give myself a quiet environment. All these years, I don't regret letting go of everything," Xu Cheng said.
"If Madam knew in the afterlife, she would definitely be proud of you. Oh right, where's the Young Madam?"
"She's still on the way. I was afraid that the old man couldn't handle it anymore, so I came over first," Xu Cheng said.
"Then you should hurry and go talk to Dad." Lan Ting urged Xu Cheng to go over.
After Xu Cheng left, Ye Xiu glared at Wen Shan and said, "You think your brother doesn't know that I'm not getting promoted? In these 20 years, have you ever seen anyone with a higher position than me in the Asian Region? As long as there's no one, I'm already considered a high position. Compared to the other members of the Guest Council, my position in the guild is higher than theirs. Although I didn't take up a position in the Guest Council, it's because I'm the heir of the Ye Family. Big Brother purposely didn't let me enter the Guest Council, but he still gave me a high position in the guild. This is already a balance in disguise. Plus, I have real power, and most of them are just in name only. You don't understand the situation, so don't talk nonsense next time. "
Wen Shan knew she was wrong, so she lowered her head and didn't dare to talk back.
First, set a small goal for yourself.
