Xiao Junxuan went to a friend’s house.
When Shi Xia saw him, he gave him a happy hug, “Ah Xuan, long time no see. You little bastard, hiding in the small county town, not coming to hang out with us.”
Xiao Junxuan punched his shoulder and laughed, “Here I am to hang out with you guys.”
“Brother Junxuan!” Shi Zhu’er’s face flushed with excitement when she saw Xiao Junxuan. She was visibly shy.
Xiao Junxuan nodded at her, his voice a little cold, “Miss Shi is getting more and more beautiful!”
Obviously, he was just being polite.
But Shi Zhu’er took it as sincere. She looked at Xiao Junxuan with shining eyes, boldly and somewhat shyly saying, “Really? Brother Junxuan really thinks I’m getting more beautiful.”
Shi Xia frowned slightly and said to Xiao Junxuan, “Ah Xuan, we haven’t seen each other for so long, we have to have a good gathering. I’ll treat you to dinner at noon today. Where do you want to eat? At the hotel or the restaurant?”
Xiao Junxuan shook his head, “I came out with my family this time. We will eat together at noon, and then my whole family will go back.”
“Ah, so soon?” Shi Xia asked, “Can’t you stay longer? You should call Ah Jun and have a gathering with everyone. Everyone else is in Jianggan City, you are the only one who has to stay in Qing County. Your family company is not small in scale, it could be located in a larger city. Why nest in a small city? You are completely blocking the development of your company.”
Xiao Junxuan said, “I don’t want to be too far from home. Besides, as long as the money is enough to spend, it’s fine.”
For the current situation, Xiao Junxuan was satisfied.
He could go home every day to eat dinner and chat with his family. It was very warm.
Furthermore, if something happened at home, he could be there to help immediately.
But Shi Zhu’er suggested, “But, Brother Junxuan, you could bring your family over to live together. That way, your company can develop, and you can be with your family.”
Xiao Junxuan shook his head, “No, my mom likes to stay in the countryside and doesn’t like to live in the city!”
On this issue, he had discussed it with his father and asked Xiao’s mother’s opinion. But Xiao’s mother felt that her relatives and friends were in the countryside, and she was used to living there, so she didn’t want to go to an unfamiliar big city with no relatives or friends.
Xiao’s father agreed as well.
What was the point of the father and son making money if not to make a better life for Xiao’s mother?
If Xiao’s mother didn’t want to, it didn’t matter how much money they made.
After hearing Xiao Junxuan’s words, Shi Zhu’er, who had never met Xiao’s mother, began to feel resentful of her in her heart.
She thought Xiao’s mother was too selfish, stopping her son’s development for her own preferences.
If Xiao Junxuan knew what she was thinking, he would definitely sneer, “Nonsense! ”
Shi Xia stopped urging after hearing Xiao Junxuan’s words.
He said, “In that case, let me treat your Uncle and Aunt to a meal. It’s only right that I show my hospitality a bit. Besides, I’ve known you for so long, you’ve met my parents, and I still don’t know yours. Isn’t that a bit unfair?”
Xiao Junxuan grinned, “Alright, I’ll call my dad and ask if he’s willing to come over for the meal.
