Chapter 901 901: A Nerve-Wracking Topic
Chen Xuan was driving, with Dongzi sitting in the passenger seat.
Lin Wanxi sat in the back with Zhang Hui and Xiao Yiyi.
"Wanxi, how have you been lately?" Zhang Hui asked with a smile.
"Pretty good, my career is quite stable," Lin Wanxi replied with a smile.
Zhang Hui shook her head and said with a smile, "I know you are very career-oriented, but you can't neglect personal relationships!"
"Haven't you thought about finding a boyfriend? Wanxi, you should consider it. You can't focus solely on your career."
Lin Wanxi forced a smile, "Auntie, you don't need to worry about me."
"Sigh, I really don't know what to say to you," Zhang Hui said, looking a bit helpless.
Xiao Yiyi was very quiet, smiling awkwardly, not knowing how to respond.
Dongzi, sitting in the passenger seat, also felt the atmosphere was quite oppressive.
He kept glancing at Chen Xuan, who was driving.
He couldn't help but secretly admire how composed Chen Xuan was.
In such a situation, he remained calm and continued driving quietly.
They arrived at the Zhang Family's entrance.
Zhang Jun and Zhang Ru had come out early to greet them.
"Xiao Hui, you finally made it,"
Zhang Ru approached quickly, a warm smile on her face.
"Big sister, I came as soon as I got your call," Zhang Hui responded with a light smile.
"Xiao Hui, after all these years, you finally come back home," Zhang Jun greeted with a smile.
"Second brother, how have you been these years?" Zhang Hui asked, her face full of emotions.
"I'm okay, just feel like the Zhang Family let you and big sister down, making you suffer," Zhang Jun sighed lightly.
Zhang Ru waved her hand cheerfully, "Xiao Jun, let's not talk about those things anymore, it's all in the past."
"I've returned to the Zhang Family, and now Xiao Hui is back too. This is a great happiness for our family."
"Come on, Xiao Hui, Dad has been waiting for you in the main room!"
She took Zhang Hui's hand and whispered, "The old man regrets it too, don't hold on to the past."
Zhang Hui nodded and followed her big sister Zhang Ru into the courtyard.
Looking at the familiar surroundings, Zhang Hui felt a flood of emotions.
"It's like the old days; at this moment, it feels like I'm back in my youth."
Zhang Hui sighed.
"Yes, everything has passed, now is a new beginning."
Zhang Ru said with a cheerful smile.
The two sisters arrived at the main room first.
Zhang Dehou stood up excitedly, "Xiao Hui, my daughter, you've finally come back to see me."
"Dad."
Tears welled up in Zhang Hui's eyes, "How has your health been all these years? Please forgive your unfilial daughter for not coming back to see you and not even calling home to ask about you."
Sigh!
Zhang Dehou waved slightly, "Don't say that. Back then, it was also my mistake, focusing only on the family's interests and ignoring your feelings."
"I've regretted my actions many times since, but I'm embarrassed to express it. You being willing to come back to see me is already my greatest satisfaction, I can die without regret."
"Dad!"
Zhang Hui rushed over and hugged her father tightly.
The father and daughter both cried bitterly, all of their emotions rushing to the surface.
Chen Xuan, Lin Wanxi, and the others stood aside, watching silently.
Though moved by the father-daughter reunion, they dared not let their guard down.
The crisis still existed, a slight mistake could trigger an explosion.
After their emotions settled, they sat together and chatted.
Zhang Ru accompanied them, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
But Zhang Jun was especially nervous, fully alert and ready at any moment.
"By the way, I heard from big sister that Zhang Yan got married."
"I didn't make it in time for her wedding. Where's Yan'Er? I prepared a big red envelope for her, a token from this aunt."
Zhang Hui smiled as she looked at Zhang Jun.
"She's at the Zhu Family, she should be home tomorrow," Zhang Jun hurriedly responded.
"Alright, I'll give it to her when she comes home tomorrow," Zhang Hui said with a smile.
"Dad, shall we start the meal to welcome Xiao Hui?"
Zhang Ru laughed and said, "This is the greatest joy in our family's history!"
"Indeed, today is my happiest day! Hahaha..." Zhang Dehou laughed heartily.
Zhang Ru called out to Chen Xuan, "Chen Xuan, stop standing there in a daze, go and invite your aunt to dinner."
Chen Xuan's eyes widened in alarm, feeling a bad premonition.
Lin Wanxi also tensed up immediately.
Including Zhang Jun, everyone's breath was held.
They all looked at Zhang Hui, their palms sweating with anxiety.
Zhang Hui waved with a smile, "Big sister, what you said is not quite right. How can Chen Xuan call me aunt, he is my..."
"It's not wrong to put it that way,"
Chen Xuan hurriedly cut in before Zhang Hui could finish her sentence, "Without a formal wedding, it's not a real marriage, hahaha."
Zhang Hui thought there was no issue with what Chen Xuan said.
Zhang Ru glanced at Chen Xuan, "Even if you had a wedding, what difference does it make? If I don't acknowledge you, it's still useless!"
"However, your recent performance is acceptable. But you are still far from meeting my standards for a son-in-law!"
Zhang Hui shook her head slightly, "Big sister, you're taking it too far again. Whether Chen Xuan is a good son-in-law, it's clear in my heart, isn't it?"
Chen Xuan and Lin Wanxi were both still tense, unable to escape from the topic.
Zhang Jun felt that the back of his shirt was soaked, the pressure mounting, making it hard to breathe.
If this conversation continues, who knows which remark might trigger an explosion!
