After being rejected by the school beauty, he picked up a treasure girl

Lin Xi nodded obediently, "If grandma doesn't dislike Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi will come back often."

Hearing this, Grandma Xue's face lit up with a warm smile, as if a spring breeze was blowing on her face:
"Granny is looking forward to you coming home more often. How could she dislike you? Your return will make our home more lively and warmer."

After saying this, Grandma Xue used her pair of shoes, which were full of traces of time.
But still conveying endless warmth, gently covering the back of Lin Xi's hand,

There seems to be an invisible bond between the two, connecting the deep emotions between grandparents and grandchildren.

She looked at Lin Xi's face carefully, her eyes full of love and expectation.
It seems as if the beauty of this moment will be engraved in my heart forever.

"Xiaoxi, Xiaoyang is the treasure in my heart. Seeing that you two can know each other and stay together, my heart is truly at ease.

I hope you can work together and live happily ever after." Grandma Xue's words were full of her earnest expectations as an elder.

Zhong Hailan interrupted at the right time:

"Mom, you're so happy that you forgot about the important things. Xiaoxi just got home, so let's enjoy this reunion dinner first and then talk slowly."

Hearing this, Grandma Xue smiled as if she had suddenly realized something:

"Oh, yes, look at my old bones. I am so happy to see Xiaoxi coming back that I forget everything. Let's eat quickly."

After dinner, the men surrounded Xue Yang.

As for the women, they naturally became friends with Lin Xi.

Yang Xiaozhi is standing in front of Xue Yang, whose career is at its peak.

The past vigor and unruliness are gone, replaced by humility and respect.

It was as if the roles had been changed in an instant, and he became the boss he admired.
That subordinate's attitude that was both nervous and sincere.

His eyes revealed his sincere admiration for Xue Yang's achievements.
And a subtle change in my heart - from fighting side by side in the past to looking up to and learning from each other today,

This journey of his heart was quietly revealed in his eye contact.

"Cousin... uh, Xue Yang, it's been a long time since we last met. It's great that you finally found time to come home."

After Yang Xiaozhi's slightly nervous opening remarks, he tried to make his tone sound more natural.

Xue Yang heard this, a warm smile appeared on his lips, his voice was gentle and kind:
"Cousin, don't be polite. We can be casual at home. Just call me by my name."

"Cousin, I'm so happy that you're finally back." Yang Xiaozhi finally relaxed, and his words were more sincere and warm.
The atmosphere between the two also became harmonious.

"Cousin, you've worked hard these years. It's thanks to you that we have been taking care of things in Huicheng."

Xue Yang's words were full of gratitude. He knew that when he was busy with his studies and career in Yancheng and rarely went home,
It was Yang Xiaozhi who silently took on the responsibility of the business in Huicheng.

Yang Xiaozhi shook his head, smiling modestly, "Not at all. This is what I should do. As for you, your achievements outside are impressive. Everyone in the family is proud of you."

Yang Xiaozhi's words were like a spring breeze, which made Xue Yang feel warm in his heart.

He patted Yang Xiaozhi's shoulder gently, his eyes flashing with determination and warmth:
"Cousin, I have seen all your efforts and I remember them in my heart. Your contribution to the stable development of Huicheng is indelible." When Yang Xiaozhi heard Xue Yang's sincere praise,
An indescribable joy welled up in my heart, and it felt just like my school days.
After traveling in the ocean of knowledge, I unexpectedly received the teacher's praise full of encouragement and affirmation.
It brought great satisfaction and excitement to his soul, and his joy was beyond words.

This joy was like the warm sunshine in spring, penetrating every corner of his heart.
It dispels the fatigue and self-doubt that have accumulated over a long period of time.

There was an unprecedented light flashing in Yang Xiaozhi's eyes.
It is a new understanding of self-worth and a vision of infinite possibilities for the future.

He realized that no matter how the outside world changes, as long as he maintains his persistent pursuit of his dream and unremitting efforts,
One day you will be able to shine with your own brilliance.

While the two were talking happily, Lin Xi came with a beautiful New Year gift in hand.

Stepping lightly into it, it adds a festive touch to this warm scene.

Yang Xiaozhi's eyes were instantly attracted by the gift, and a hint of surprise and joy flashed in his eyes.

He smiled a little awkwardly:

"Cousin, do I have a share in this?"

Hearing this, Lin Xi smiled gently and sincerely, and spoke in a soft but firm voice:
"Of course, you are Xue Yang's cousin, which means you are my cousin. In our hearts, we are already a family. This gift is our token of our love for you. I hope you like it."

Yang Xiaozhi felt a warm current in his heart when he heard Lin Xi's words. He scratched his head embarrassedly and waved his hand to decline:
"Oh, how can I be so embarrassed...I really don't need it..."

However, it is hard to conceal the feeling of being valued and cared for in his words.

Seeing this, Lin Xi took a step forward.
He gently placed the gift in Yang Xiaozhi's hands, his eyes full of encouragement and warmth:
"Cousin, you're welcome. This is not just a gift, but also our gratitude and blessing to you. This year, we have seen and remembered your care and support for Xue Yang's business in Huicheng.

Please accept this small gift and let it accompany you through a happy New Year on our behalf. "

Xue Yang also smiled and nodded, adding:

"Yes, cousin, don't refuse. Lin Xi is right, we are all family, other family members have gifts, so you should have one too. This gift may be small, but the friendship is heavy."

Feeling the deep affection from his cousin, Yang Xiaozhi finally gave up. He gently held the gift in his hand, his eyes slightly red, and said in a choked voice:

"Thank you, really... I will treasure this gift."

Holding gifts, Lin Xi gracefully moved among family members, continuing to spread the joy of the New Year.

When she came to Xue Yuanxia, ​​she handed over an exquisite bag with a brand name logo printed on it and said with a smile:

"Aunt, Happy New Year! This is a little gift for you."

Upon seeing this, Xue Yuanxia quickly wiped her hands on her lapels, her eyes moving between the bag and Lin Xi, an expression of anticipation and a little shyness on her face, as if she was accepting an indescribable and precious gift.

"Oh, Lin Xi, how can this be so embarrassing?"

Xue Yuanxia said softly, with gratitude and reluctance flashing in her eyes.

Lin Xi smiled gently and said, "Aunt, please don't be polite. We are all family. You must accept this gift. I hope it will bring you good luck and happiness in the new year." (End of this chapter)
