Xue Yao also stood up. “That’s right, Grandpa. It’s only Uncle. Not like it’s the president who arrived. There’s no need to go out to welcome him. After all, you guys are elders!”

After saying that, she looked at Lu Wei and waited for them to come in so that she could introduce her boyfriend to them.

Old Master Xue frowned. Just as he was about to scold the old lady, he heard the housekeeper say weakly, “That… Old Master, Madam, isn’t Mr. Xue back? No, he has indeed arrived home…”

Old Master Xue was stunned. “Is he back or not?”

The corners of the housekeeper’s lips twitched. “Just now, Mr. Xue called and said that they’re home. He told you not to worry and even said that he’ll deliver the new year’s goods tomorrow. It’s too late today, so he won’t come.”

The rest: “?”

Old Master Xue took a while to react before he suddenly understood. Did the housekeeper mean that Xue Sheng had indeed returned, but he did not return to this house but went to the house he had moved away from in Bin City?!

Old Master Xue’s expression changed.

The old lady also scolded, “Unfilial son, unfilial son! Isn’t this his home? He’s actually not coming back!”

Old Master Xue wanted to say something, but he did not say it in the end.

Xue Yao’s expression darkened.

However, Xue Yao quickly snorted. Even if she did not come today, wouldn’t she still have to come tomorrow?

It was the same!

…

Bin City, Xue residence.

Xue Sheng looked at the three-story building. As Xiao Fang had returned a day earlier to clean, the house was very bright. After parking the car and entering the house, they saw that the dining table was already filled with warm food.

After a day of driving, everyone was quite tired.

Hence, after having dinner, they returned to their rooms to rest.

Xue Xi wanted to read, but there were no books here. In the middle of the night, she could only browse the forum and soak in knowledge. She also slept early.

She did not sleep very soundly.

In the middle of the night, she suddenly heard the sound of a doork.n.o.b turning. She paused and heard a knock on the door.

The lights in the room were switched on and it was not very dark. Moreover, the sky in Bin City was relatively clear and the moon was very bright. Hence, Xue Xi immediately sat up and asked, “Who is it?”

“Me.”

It was Xiang Huai’s deep voice.

Xue Xi rubbed her eyes in a daze and lifted the blanket to get out of bed. She opened the door with a little anger and saw Xiang Huai in gray silk pajamas, leaning against the wall outside.

Xue Xi asked impatiently, “Why are you here?”

Xiang Huai smiled. “Do you want me to speak here and wake your parents up, or should we go in and talk?”

Beside Xue Xi’s bedroom was the master bedroom.

She did not think much of it and moved aside to let Xiang Huai in.

She yawned and slowly turned around. The moment she closed the door and was about to turn on the lights, a large hand suddenly grabbed her waist and pushed her onto the bed.

Xue Xi widened her eyes. “W-what are you doing?”

Xiang Huai pressed on her.

The room was too dark, so she could not see Xiang Huai clearly.

However, she could hear the man’s restrained voice. “Xixi.”

“Yes?”

“I just read the novel from earlier.”

Xue Xi: “?”

Her eyes widened. “And?”

“And, let’s study it. Did the male lead in the first chapter open the female lead’s clothes like this?”

Following that, Xiang Huai reached into Xue Xi’s pajamas…
