The voice I haven't heard for four years is still the same as in my memory, so cold and distant.

Chu Zhixin listened quietly, with a calm expression and no disturbance in his heart.

"Um, Mr. Sheng, Mr. Sheng, I'm sorry to disturb you..."

Xu Guanghua didn't expect that Sheng Tingye would get through so quickly. He was so nervous that his tongue trembled and he said incoherently: "That's it...my niece Xinxin returned to Haicheng today. You also know that she has disappeared for so many years.

It's really rare to come back. You have taken such good care of me these past few years, so I just wanted to invite you and her to my house for a meal. You..."

"no need."

Sheng Tingye on the other end of the phone refused directly without any hesitation or emotion.

Immediately, without any unnecessary words, he quickly hung up the phone.

"Ah, Mr. Sheng, Mr. Sheng..."

Xu Guanghua shouted into his cell phone for a long time, but the only response he got was a busy signal.

When I called him again, he was already blocked.

"Xinxin, um... don't be angry. I guess Mr. Sheng must be busy. He is the president after all. I'll use Mengmeng's cell phone to make a call later."

Xu Guanghua glanced at Chu Zhixin with guilt and embarrassment, fearing that Chu Zhixin would be hurt.

He never expected that Sheng Tingye, who had always taken good care of the Xu family, would suddenly be so unkind. It was obvious that he was avoiding suspicion of Chu Zhixin, which made Chu Zhixin lose face!

"It doesn't matter!"

Chu Zhixin shrugged coolly and said with a smile: "If he comes, I will have an extra pair of chopsticks. If he doesn't come, I will eat more. It won't be a big problem."

It's not that she's pretending to be cool, it's actually that Sheng Tingye is just a familiar stranger to her now, and he can't shake her emotions at all.

Xu Mengmeng frowned, showing a disappointed expression, and shook her head repeatedly, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's true that I was blind and saw the wrong person. This Mr. Sheng really doesn't look like a man. He is so coquettish that he doesn't even dare to eat.

, Cousin Xinxin is so cheerful!"

Xu Guanghan said: "What do you know, you little brat? Let me tell you. It's the same sentence. Being generous means letting it go. Being naughty means caring. Mr. Sheng has always been upright and generous. This time, he suddenly became so petty. It must be in his heart.

Still pretending to be sincere and not ready to meet, I will make an appointment again when I have a chance!"

Chu Zhixin chuckled, "You guys are too imaginative. He is now a big CEO. Isn't it normal to refuse to eat with ordinary people like us? Besides... I have such an awkward relationship with him, and he chose to avoid suspicion.

, it is also reasonable to avoid misunderstandings by the current incumbent."

"This is also true!"

Xu Mengmeng touched her chin and nodded, "He has had a very stable relationship with the guy named Lin in the past few years. He is often photographed by reporters on dates and vacations. He may have really fallen in love with his cousin Xinxin."

"No, no, no, I don't think it's like..."

Xu Guanghua held an objection, "I am a man, and I understand men. If a man really lets go, he will have no time to care about the woman's relatives. Mr. Sheng has taken good care of us all these years, and he goes to pay homage to your aunt every year."

Uncle, it doesn’t look like he’s letting go.”

"But if you haven't let go, why don't you even want to have a meal and have a new girlfriend? Isn't this a scumbag?"

Xu Mengmeng got excited and pulled Xu Guanghua and said, "Dad, do you dare to bet with me? I'll bet that Mr. Sheng will let go of my cousin..."

"No, no, no, I quit gambling!"

"Let's bet. If you win, I'll take care of all the dishes this year!"

"That's okay, then I bet Mr. Sheng hasn't let go of your beloved cousin. If you don't believe it, let's wait and see..."

The father and daughter were so angry that they even started to make a bet.

Chu Zhixin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and silently left the battlefield, walking around the room at will.

Xu Guanghua's home is not luxurious, it can even be called simple, but it is very warm. When she stays in it, she feels inexplicably warm and relaxed.

On the piano stand in the study room, there is a family portrait, which includes Xu Guanghua's family of three, Chu Zhixin's family of three, and their late grandparents.

Chu Zhixin stopped in front of the photo and looked at it for a long time, his eyes turning slightly red.
