Mu Zirui bit his lips and quickly wrapped his arms around Xi Xiaye’s neck. “I get it, Mother! I’ll always call you. You have to keep sending me photos of Brother as well. He seems skinnier lately. I think he’s cuter when he’s chubbier…”

Xi Xiaye smiled. “You’ll see him being all chubby again after you came back. Alright, we’re done packing up here. Let’s go down. Everyone is waiting.”

When they went downstairs, Shen Yue and Mu Yuchen were still playing Go chess. Shen Wenna was playing with Little Apple, but Xi Mushan was nowhere to be seen.

“Where’s Father?” Xi Xiaye looked around and asked.

“He got a phone call half an hour ago and went out. He probably needs another half an hour before he can get back. Have a seat first. We’re not in a rush anyway,” Shen Wenna replied.

…

Inside a coffee shop near the Shen residence, Xi Xinyi had been waiting there for a while by the time Xi Mushan arrived.

She wore a long, white dress and her hair was tied into a bun. She looked much more casual than usual with a pair of sungla.s.ses which she slowly removed when she noticed Xi Mushan.

“Father, you’re here!” Xi Xinyi called out to him. She also got the waiter to serve Xi Mushan a cup of Blue Mountain coffee.

“Mmm, have you had lunch?” Xi Mushan sat down and asked.

Xi Xinyi nodded. “Yeap, it’s been a long time since I last saw you. I think I heard Aunt Shen’s voice over the phone just now. Are you guys going on a trip?” She had overheard Shen Wenna mentioning something about their flight. It sounded like they were traveling.

“Yes, we are. It’s been many years since we went for a trip together, so we’re taking the chance during this holiday to go out and have some fun.” Xi Mushan’s voice and gaze were both calm. He did not seem emotionally affected when he saw Xi Xinyi.

“It’s great to take a break every now and then, Father. You look much better than before. In fact, you seem to be doing well.”

“I don’t really have a lot of trouble in the past year. I became a teacher and everything has been going fine. Xinyi, it’s easier to find your own happiness if you appreciate what you have.”

“I understand, Father. I might not have gotten it in the past, but I know it well now. I’m sorry that Sister and you had to bear those burdens. I’m afraid that Han Yifeng and I can’t be by your side now, so I hope Brother-in-law and Sister can fill that role. I really feel guilty about it.” Xi Xinyi’s expression darkened while her eyes were filled with guilt. “It’s already too late by the time I realized it. I really hope that things could return to how it was before although…”

“Just take care of yourself. I’m not that old yet. There’s still no need for someone to take care of me,” Xi Mushan replied.

“I thought about a lot of things recently. I really owe Sister and you too much. I don’t expect to be forgiven. I just hope to live my life peacefully. Although Brother-in-law never said anything, Second Master Qi has been looking after me in Qi Kai. I’m sure it’s because of his influence, and I’m really grateful for him.”

“I thought your hatred towards them would continue. After all, Yueying turned to its current state because of Xiaye and Ah Chen.” Xi Mushan seemed to be testing her.

Xi Xinyi smiled. “I did hate them a lot in the beginning, but after everyone left me one after another, especially after Han Yifeng left with my child, I woke up.

“It might not mean anything for one or two people to leave, but when everyone left, it’s pretty obvious that I was the problem. Now that I think about it, there was no point for me to hate them. Han Yifeng and my child won’t come back to me no matter how much I hate them. Furthermore, there’s no way we can turn back time,” she said in a bitter tone.

At the same time, she took out some doc.u.ments from her handbag and handed them to Xi Mushan. “Father, these are the Yueying shares that still belong to the Xi family. I separated them into two parts. This is for Sister. Please give it to her for me. Grandmother did this for my sake. Now that she has pa.s.sed away, I hope Sister can forgive her.”

Xi Mushan knew Xi Xinyi was talking about the time when Deng Wenwen had forced Xi Xiaye to sign the doc.u.ment.

“Besides, tell her to be on alert as things might get rowdy soon. It might be a good thing that you guys are going on a trip now.”

Xi Xinyi’s words surprised Xi Mushan who looked at her and asked, “What do you mean? Did you find out about something?”

She then shook her head. “No, I just feel like things haven’t been very peaceful lately, so just be careful. Alright, I’ll leave these with you. Please hand them to Sister.”

“Why don’t you give it to her yourself?” Xi Mushan asked.

“She might not want to see me and I want to avoid riling up her emotions as well. I have to get back now. Take care, Father.” Xi Xinyi took out some cash and left it on the table before she got up and left before Xi Mushan could say anything else.

He watched her walk out of the store. Then, he remained stationary and looked at the doc.u.ment before him. Moments later, he grabbed them and left as well.

…

It was just right on time when Xi Mushan returned to the Shen residence. They got their luggage ready and went to the airport.

Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye went to send them off too.

“Someone will pick you up. Take care of yourselves!”

“Xiao Rui, remember what I told you. Stick to the group, alright?” Xi Xiaye stopped by the boarding gate.

“Don’t worry. We’ll keep in touch after we arrive there.” Shen Wenna grabbed her bag from Xi Xiaye and smiled. “You two should head back now.”

…

They went past the security checks quickly. Xi Xiaye was relieved after she lost them in the crowd, then she turned to him.
