Evening.
The dusky night sky slowly pressed down.
Xie Huilan and Dong Xuebing arrived at Xishan Villa. They are here to visit Senior Xie.
Suddenly, Xie Huilan's car's headlights flashed, and a BMW was driving over. The BMW saw Xie Huilan's car and stopped opposite.
Xie Huilan rolled down the window, and Wei Nan appeared. "Huilan?"
Xie Huilan also stopped and smiled. "Wei Nan? Why are you here? "
Wei Nan opened the car door. "I am here to visit Senior Xie. What a coincidence!" She glanced at Dong Xuebing.
Xie Huilan smiled. "I heard your house caught fire during the earthquake. Are you alright? "
"I'm fine." Wei Nan replied. "I am not staying there at that time. I had only burned some antique paintings."
"It's fine as long as you are fine." Xie Huilan waved her hand. "Xiao Bing and I are going to visit Senior Xie. Let's chat again in the future, alright?"
Wei Nan looked at Xie Huilan. "Drive slowly and be careful."
Xie Huilan wound up the window and drove off, leaving Wei Nan looking at the Audi's rear view.
Dong Xuebing's face turned cold. He knows Wei Nan. His family is in the medical equipment business and is very rich. Wei Nan was Xie Huilan's admirer in the past and almost became Xie Huilan's fiancé. Dong Xuebing had a bad impression of him. After the car left, Dong Xuebing mumbled. "Huilan, why did he come to your house? Is he still thinking about you? This person is really thick-skinned! "
Xie Huilan laughed. "Is my little man jealous? Hahaha … "
Dong Xuebing gave her a stare. "Don't call me little man. I am asking you a question!"
"His father is close to my family, and I can't stop him if he wants to come over."
"Don't forget about the time bomb you were tied to Yan Tai County." Dong Xuebing frowned. "Didn't I tell you about this? At that time, Wei Nan went there, but when he heard that you had a bomb on you, he turned around and left. You still want to talk to someone like that? "
Xie Huilan shook Dong Xuebing's hand. "I know it is my Xiao Bing who is brave enough to go in and defuse the bomb."
"I'm not trying to take credit from you. I'm just talking about this!"
"I know who is good to me, hehe."
"It's fine as long as you understand. Don't bother with him in the future. What is he?"
Xie Huilan stopped the car at the villa district, and Dong Xuebing followed behind her. They walked past the security guards and entered the villa.
"Oh, why did you say his house is on fire?" Dong Xuebing asked as he walked.
Xie Huilan smiled. "During the earthquake, his power supply might have short-circuited. The villa under his name was burnt to a crisp. I heard an ancient painting worth 100 million RMB was also burnt. His father had spent a lot of money to buy that painting, and he had kept it with Wei Nan. But … … he suffered heavy losses."
Dong Xuebing knew Wei Nan is also an antique collector. A long time ago, Dong Xuebing had bought an expensive pearl necklace at an auction. When Wei Nan's house caught fire, Dong Xuebing thought to himself. He really does not like Wei Nan.
…
Xie Huilan's Old Mansion.
Senior Xie is sitting in the main seat, and Sister Xie's mother, Han Jing, is beside him. Xie Ran, Xie Jing, Xie Hao, and the rest of the younger generation are sitting on both sides.
Xie Huilan entered the house and smiled. "Sorry for the traffic."
Dong Xuebing quickly replied. "Thank you, Grandpa, Aunty. Sorry for making you wait."
Senior Xie nodded. "Wash your hands and have dinner."
Xie Jing and Xie Ran greeted. "Sister, Brother Dong."
As the few of them were chatting, a figure suddenly ran over and gave Dong Xuebing a bear hug. It's Xie Hao. "Hahaha … my idol. I can finally see you. You are not injured at all. Brother-in-law, you are too awesome."
Xie Jing laughed. "Look at how excited Xiao Hao is."
Han Jing laughed. "Xiao Bing, when I heard you had become a martyr, Xiao Hao cried for a long time."
Xie Hao cursed. "Damn! Why are you saying this?! Why am I crying?! "
"Hahahaha …" Everyone laughed.
Dong Xuebing is also touched and patted Xie Hao's back. Although Xie Hao is not reliable, he is very sincere and kind.
During dinner.
Only Senior Xie and Han Jing are at the table. The rest of the Xie family are busy with work and did not attend. Dong Xuebing is more relaxed during dinner. Han Jing is very friendly and kept putting food into Dong Xuebing's bowl. She asked Dong Xuebing all sorts of questions and asked about the earthquake in detail. When Dong Xuebing told her about the collapse of the First Hospital, Han Jing's expression changed. Dong Xuebing could tell she really cares about Dong Xuebing, and this made him feel warm and comfortable.
"Xiao Bing, you had given me a fright this time." Han Jing sighed. "Don't work so hard in the future."
"You are too narrow-minded." Senior Xie, who had been quiet all this while, reprimanded Dong Xuebing. "Xiao Dong is right. As a government official, you must have a clear conscience."
Han Jing immediately replied. "Dad, you are right."
Senior Xie looks at Dong Xuebing. "Xiao Dong, you have done well. The government does not lack government officials, but they lack people like you who dare to stand up for them at crucial moments. You have done well."
Dong Xuebing quickly replied. "Grandpa Xie, you are flattering me."
Xie Huilan laughed. "Grandpa Xie, don't praise him. Xiao Bing is someone who cannot be praised. The more you praise him, the angrier he will get. What if something happens to him in the future? Don't you think so? "
"Impudent." Han Jing gave her daughter a stare. "Don't talk back to your grandpa."
Senior Xie snorted. "Let's eat."
"Come, Grandpa." Xie Huilan picked up some food with her chopsticks. "Eat more."
Senior Xie replied. "I get angry every time I see you." Xie Huilan laughed.
Xie Huilan laughed. "I had missed you. Your eldest granddaughter had given you the food, and you still want to eat it? If my younger siblings see this, I'll lose face as the big sister, right? "
Old Master Xie blew his beard and glared at her. "You stupid girl, you were born with a good mouth." After saying that, Old Master Xie also laughed.
Xie Jing and Xie Ran knew Xie Huilan is the only one in the Xie Family who dares to argue with Senior Xie. Although Senior Xie does not like Xie Huilan, he dotes on her the most. If not, Senior Xie's face will change if Xie Ran, the third generation successor, talks back to Senior Xie. Of course, Xie Jing and Xie Ran also dare not to say anything to Senior Xie, except for their eldest sister. Even if it was a big family like the Xie Family, there would definitely be some favoritism. It was unavoidable.
After dinner, Senior Xie went back to his room.
Only Han Jing, Xie Huilan, Xie Jing, and a few other juniors are left in the living room.
"Sis." Xie Ran turned to Xie Huilan. "Didn't you and Brother Dong go to the Party School? Isn't it a closed class? Can you leave? "
Xie Huilan replied. "Today is the first day, and the classes will start tomorrow. It will not be easy to leave at night."
Xie Jing giggled. "Sis, Brother Dong, I still have not congratulated you two for your promotions."
Xie Huilan laughed and patted Xie Jing's hand. "Thank you, Sister."
"Don't mention it. Just treat me to a few meals. Oh!" Xie Jing suddenly remembered something and asked. "When are you and Brother Dong getting married? I am still waiting for your wedding banquet. "
Han Jing laughed. "We had discussed getting married early next year, and it should be in another four to five months."
Xie Hao laughed. "Hehe … since it is settled, we might as well get married this week. I am glad my Sis is getting married."
Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes and looks at Xie Hao. "Really?"
Xie Hao cleared his throat. "Sigh … I am just joking. Don't stare at me. My Aunt is here, and my Sis wants to hit me!" Xie Hao complained.
Xie Jing covered her mouth and giggled. "Who asked you to step on Big Sister Hu? I think you are really asking her to beat you up. "
Xie Hao had always been afraid of Xie Huilan, but not Xie Jing. "Hmph … I am not happy with some people. You are 26 or 27 years old, and you are still single. Tsk … tsk …"
Xie Jing gave Xie Hao a stare. "You bastard! Say that again!"
Xie Hao is not afraid of her. "What can you do to me if I say it?"
The few of them had a good time, and the family atmosphere is good.
After that, Han Jing looks at Xie Huilan and Dong Xuebing. "What Xiao Hao said is right. Both of you have gotten used to each other, and you don't have to wait until the wedding. You can just hold a banquet at home, and you don't need to prepare too much. Huilan, what do you think?"
Dong Xuebing got excited when he heard this. He can get married earlier? This is great news! Dong Xuebing had been looking forward to marrying Sister Xie! He had been looking forward to it!
Xie Huilan laughed and did not say a word.
Dong Xuebing thought to himself. What's wrong? You still don't agree?
Han Jing looks at Dong Xuebing. "I am asking you a question. What do you think? "
Xie Ran, Xie Jing, and Xie Hao look at their Big Sis.
Xie Huilan smiled and took a sip of her tea. "Mum, we are thinking of the same thing. I am thinking of getting married this month. Xiao Bing had held a memorial service several times and became a martyr. I am afraid of him, and I had wanted to discuss the wedding with you all. But … I am a woman, and I need to be more reserved. I have to wait for someone to propose to me first, right? Haha … but someone did not mention this, and I can't bring it up. You want me to beg someone to marry me? How can I do that? I need to be more shameless, right? "
Xie Hao and Xie Jing almost fainted.
You had already brought it up, and you still want to be shameless?
