Bringing the baby back to China, the cold CEO becomes a fishing husband

At around six o'clock in the evening, we started to eat the New Year's Eve dinner.

We had already eaten at noon, which was what we had agreed on. We ate more at noon so that we could digest the food in the afternoon and evening. In the evening, we heated up the food from lunch and made two or three new dishes. We ate slowly, and the TV was tuned to CCTV, which was playing the Spring Festival Gala.

At eight o'clock, with the host's opening speech, the annual Spring Festival Gala began.

On the third day of the Chinese New Year, Li Yin's family followed Xiang's father and mother to go out of town to visit Xiang's father and mother's parents, that is, An An and the twins' great-grandparents. Xiang Sizhou's family and Xiang Sixia also went with them.

Xiang's father and mother are both from Luocheng. They later studied in Nancheng and were assigned jobs in Nancheng after graduation, so they settled down in Nancheng.

Father Xiang has an older brother and a younger sister. The two elderly people now live in their own home. As they are old, they don’t want to cause trouble for their children, so the three siblings hired a nanny to take care of their parents.

Since we came to Luocheng, we lived in Xiang Siyuan’s house in Luocheng, which was the house where Xiang Sixia and Li Yin had a drink.

The house has three rooms. It just so happened that Mr. and Mrs. Xiang moved back to live in Grandpa and Mrs. Xiang's house, so the three rooms here are just right for the three siblings of the Xiang family.

Xiang Sixia took the car of Xiang Siyuan's family, while Xiang's father and mother took the car of Xiang Sizhou's family. After driving for more than two hours, they arrived in Luocheng. Everyone agreed to go home to put the luggage first, and then send Xiang's father and mother to the old house.

On the way, Xiang Sixia thought of what happened in the apartment, so she sighed,

"An An is already five years old. Time flies so fast."

Li Yin and Xiang Siyuan knew she was talking about that matter, so they just smiled and didn't respond.

Xiang Sixia came to the front row and said to the two of them,

"I am your matchmaker, right?"

Li Yin smiled but said nothing, but Xiang Siyuan spoke up.

"The wine in my cupboard..."

I didn't expect my brother to still remember those extremely expensive bottles of wine, so Xiang Sixia retreated to the back seat and laughed.

"Just pretend I didn't say anything."

The apartment was in an upscale residential area, and the security office had the key that Xiang Siyuan had left there. Two days before returning to Luocheng, Xiang Siyuan asked the security guard to help ask the property's cooperating housekeeping team to clean the room, ventilate the house, and even make the quilts.

From the moment she arrived at the gate of the community to the moment she opened the door and entered the house, Li Yin felt a little emotional. Although she already knew that she would return to live here before she left, when she really saw it, she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.

Xiang Siyuan also looked at her. They smiled at each other and said nothing, but it seemed like they had said everything.

After a quick tidying up, everyone drove to the old house. When they arrived, Xiang's eldest brother's family and younger sister's family were already waiting in the house.

After not seeing each other for a year, Li Yin and An An received the most attention and they also felt the most sincere and warm welcome. The adults hugged the three little ones again and again, especially An An, who was meeting them for the first time. They hugged and hugged each other so much that An An's feet hardly touched the ground.

The old man and the old lady gently squeezed An An's hands and said to Li Yin lovingly,

"Yinyin, you guys have taken such good care of him. He's fair and tender, and very polite."

As soon as he entered the door, An An followed his grandfather and called whoever he was asked to call without being shy at all. He also gave everyone a big smile and was not in a hurry to be carried around, and just let him be carried obediently.

The old man and the old lady loved this belated great-grandson very much. So did Brother Xiang's family and Sister Xiang's family. They also loved their nephew's son very much.

We usually video chat with each other, and it was our first offline meeting. Although we felt a little awkward at the beginning, this awkwardness was quickly dispelled by the warm interaction among everyone.

It was already past three in the afternoon when Mr. Xiang and his friends arrived. The time spent chatting passed quickly and it was soon time for dinner. Brother Xiang had already booked a table at the hotel nearby, which was a ten-minute drive away.

Two tables were booked. Some younger generations from Brother Xiang and Sister Xiang's families had already arrived. When Father Xiang and his family came in, there was another round of greetings. An An and Li Yin were definitely the focus of the crowd, and everyone came over to greet them.

Brother Xiang has a nine-year-old grandson, and sister Xiang has a grandson and a granddaughter, six and four years old respectively. Not long after the banquet started, the children all started playing together.

It was already past ten o'clock when I got home in the evening, and it was almost twelve o'clock when I finished washing up.

Under the warm yellow light, An An was sleeping in the middle of the bed in his autumn clothes. Li Yin took out the red envelopes from himself and An An and counted them carefully. Xiang Siyuan came in and saw his son sleeping and Yin Yin leaning against the bedside counting money. He found it funny and laughed. He sat down beside Li Yin's bed, looked at the red envelope and asked,

"Is it much?"

Li Yin narrowed her eyes and smiled.

"A lot. Grandpa and grandma gave me a big red envelope, and also gave An An a big one. And uncle, aunt, and your cousins ​​also gave An An a lot of money."

Li Yin was a little worried.

“Are the red envelopes we gave too little?”

Li Yin originally thought that since it was the first time they met, she should give the children more red envelopes, but Xiang Siyuan said no, just give the same as his brother and sister-in-law. She thought about it and it was true, but now holding such a thick red envelope, Li Yin felt a little uncertain again.

"Don't worry, my parents also said that this gift is enough. Besides, you are the new daughter-in-law, and An An is also here for the first time, so I gave you more. It will be the same next year."

Since Mr. and Mrs. Xiang have said so, let’s not worry about it.

The lights were turned off for a long time, but Li Yin didn't fall asleep. His thoughts were involuntarily wandering, from the past to the present, with many memories constantly interspersed.

Five years ago, it was on this bed that she and Xiang Siyuan had sex by accident.

It was like the gears of fate started turning, leading her to another path, where she had a child, then married the child's father, and now they are in love with each other.

If time goes back to that time, who could have imagined the current situation? No one could have expected it.

In the silence, Li Yin heard Xiang Siyuan move, and then heard him say,

"have you slept?"

Li Yin responded in a low voice,

"No."

"Do you remember the past?"

"Ah."

Xiang Siyuan was silent for a moment, then whispered,

"Now that I think about it, I should have chased him out that time. Even if you said I didn't have to take responsibility, I should have taken the initiative to shoulder the responsibility."

If he had insisted at that time, Li Yin would not have to suffer alone for so many years, and he would not have been absent from her and An An's life for so many years.

Li Yin didn't expect Xiang Siyuan to still think about this, but maybe because of An An, An An was the best surprise and gift for her. Even though she did feel a little helpless at first, now that she remembered that An An was by her side, she didn't look back. Moreover, she also felt that Xiang Siyuan treated her and An An sincerely. Being together as a family is enough.

Li Yin touched An An's tender little face and couldn't help but kiss her.

"I think we are fine the way we are now. Look how cute our An'an is."

Xiang Siyuan understood what Li Yin meant. He was very grateful that he now had everything that could be called happiness.

They stayed in Luocheng for two nights and then returned to Nancheng. Xiang's father and mother stayed for a few more days to accompany the old man and the old lady.

Li Yin's family went back and visited relatives with Li's parents. The Chinese New Year was sometimes even busier and more tiring than working.

Shortly after returning to work after the holiday, Xiang Siyuan and An An flew to Europe to start filming the last episode of the variety show.
