There was also the fresh scent of grass and the smell of earth.
The sound of a gurgling stream in the courtyard could be heard.
Birds could be seen landing on the stream to drink water.
Hu Kaiyin noticed that there was a lack of dogs and cats.
If she had everything, it would be perfect.
So that was how she settled down in the house of the Xie Family.
It felt so good to stay here.
Hu Kaiyin even thought of retiring from the Mount Lan Compound.
She was close to the age of retirement anyway.
If she chose to retire, the Mount Lan Compound wouldn’t stop her.
Thanks to the income she had earned, she had enough money that she wouldn’t have to worry about running out of money, even if she didn’t work at all.
Unexpectedly, the Xie Family warmly welcomed her into their territory.
They didn’t think that there was anything wrong with her staying here.
No matter what events the Xie family had, big or small, Xie Jiwen always made sure to include Hu Kaiyin, dragging her along to every single one.
For example, Xie Jiling started dating Han Zhuofeng and brought Han Zhuofeng back to meet her parents.
This was a family meal, but Xie Jiwen brought her along.
Xie Jiwen’s parents, who were Xie Jiling’s Eldest Uncle and Aunt named Xie Tongyùn and Xu Jialin, were both here.
Xu Jialin was basically looking at Hu Kaiyin as though she was looking at her daughter-in-law.
Xu Jialin knew that Hu Kaiyin came from the Mount Lan Compound.
After all, the Xie Family had a very good relationship with the Mount Lan Compound.
They were familiar with Hu Kaiyin’s job.
In fact, they were very satisfied with her.
Hu Kaiyin was very capable and with an impressive record in battle.
She could remind steadfast during Xie Jiwen’s exorcisms.
After all, there were very few people in the world of exorcists, and there were even fewer people of suitable age.
It was almost impossible to find a partner in the world of exorcists.
It was truly rare to find someone with a big heart who was able to withstand the high stress.
They became convinced that they had to do everything to help Xie Jiwen keep Hu Kaiyin here!
Upon hearing the impatient tone in Xie Jiwen’s words, Xu Jialin smiled coldly and said, “You’re making things difficult for Han Zhuofeng. Have you thought about the future when you go home with Hu Kaiyin and meet with her parents? What if they don’t approve of you?”
Xie Jiwen didn’t know what to say.
Hu Kaiyin was speechless.
Xie Jiwen was the one being naughty. How did she get involved here?
While the elders weren’t watching, Hu Kaiyin glared at Xie Jiwen.
Xie Jiwen looked back at Hu Kaiyin innocently.
His mother’s words made sense. Why did she glare at him?
After a while, Xie Jiling came in with Han Zhuofeng.
Han Zhuofeng carried big and small bags of gifts.
When he came in and saw Xie Tongyun and Gu Yingsu, he called out sweetly, “Dad! Mom!”
Han Zhuofeng’s second elder brother had told him that he had to be as shameless as possible!
Han Zhuofeng remembered it well.
Before Xie Tongyun and Gu Yingsu could show any animosity, he had to be shameless!
Such actions would stun them!
Han Zhuofeng thought that his strategy was very effective.
Xie Tongyun and Gu Yingsu were truly stunned.
While Xie Tongyun and Gu Yingsu were so shocked that they couldn’t utter a single word…
Han Zhuofeng then redirected his attack on Xie Tongyùn and Xu Jialin.
“You two must be Eldest Uncle and Eldest Aunt!” Han Zhuofeng greeted enthusiastically.
Xie Tongyùn was indeed someone who had experienced a lot of things in life.
While Han Zhuofeng was being really shameless, Xie Tongyùn turned around and said to Xie Jiwen, “Did you see that? You should copy that shamelessness! And do the same to your father-in-law and mother-in-law!”
Hu Kaiyin was speechless.
Was it really appropriate to discuss how to handle her parents in front of her?
Pfft!
No!
She should have asked what they meant by Xie Jiwen’s father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Hu Kayin was at a loss for words.
Han Zhuofeng was speechless. “…”
He felt as though Xie Tongyùn was criticizing him.
But then, Xie Tongyùn also said that Xie Jiwen should learn from him.
Was Xie Tongyùn complimenting him or criticizing him?
Han Zhuofeng decided to continue being shameless as he placed the gift down.
Gu Yingsu recovered from her shock and asked politely, “Why did you bring so many things with you?”
“I should.” Han Zhuofeng said.
“I asked Xie Jiling about your preferences and bought some items based on her recommendations. I wasn’t sure if you would like them, but I didn’t know the preferences of Xie Jiling’s future sister-in-law either. So, I asked my two sisters-in-law what girls generally like as gifts,” Han Zhuofeng explained.
“I purchased these items at the suggestion of my sisters-in-law, so I’m not sure if Xie Jiling’s future sister-in-law will like them,” Han Zhuofeng said.
Xie Jiwen was stupefied.
Han Zhuofeng smiled confidently.
Noob. Someone who didn’t even dare to confess wanted to compete with me?
Immediately, Xie Jiwen came back to his senses and thought that Han Zhuofeng had done a good job.
This boy knew the right thing to do!
He wouldn’t stop him from dating Xie Jiling anymore.
Xie Jiling didn’t expect Xie Jiwen to abandon her for the sake of his future wife!
The corner of Hu Kaiyin’s eyes kept twitching.
Han Zhuofeng was so shameless.
He was pleasing everyone and wasn’t scared of offending her!
What sister-in-law?
Xu Jilin made a face at Gu Yingsu.
You have a very capable son-in-law!
Gu Yingsu was speechless. “…”
She didn’t know what to say.
She could no longer ask questions.
Then, Han Zhuofeng said, “Dad, Mom, Uncle, and Aunt, I’m sorry for arriving so late and for making you all wait this long.”
“It’s alright. It’s alright.” Xie Tongyun chuckled like a good old man and said, “I checked Jiling’s social media. You left early in the morning. Our house is just too far away. It’s already considered early for you all to get here at this hour.”
“Sit. Sit.” Xie Tongyun said, “You traveled far, so you must be very tired.”
“Zhuofeng is more tired than me. He carried all the luggage,” Xie Jiling said.
Han Zhuofeng was shocked as he looked at Xie Jiling and asked, “Is that something to be praised?”
Xie Jiling felt speechless.
It was no surprise that the director’s acting skills had also improved from watching his actors.
Xie Tongyun laughed and said, “Our Jiling is very used to traveling by herself whenever she’s on the job. She normally carries her own luggage, but now, she has someone helping her.”
“As long as I am here, Jiling will never have to move a finger,” Han Zhuofeng said, “I have thought about it carefully. Unless I’m in the middle of filming, I will follow her around whenever she has to travel and be on the job..”
Gu Yingsu was very curious as she asked, “I heard you’re scared of those things?”
“I’m scared. But with Jiling, I’m safe. It’s the same as watching a horror movie. You know it’s fake and that nothing will happen to you, but you still can’t help but feel afraid. Therefore, I will be fine if I’m with Jiling.”
“Although I can’t help with anything, I can still stay with her. In addition, I’m being protected by the jade she gave me, so I won’t be a burden to her.” Han Zhuofeng said.
“So you’ve seen those things many times already?” Xie Tongyun asked.
“Not many times. Only a total of two times.” Han Zhuofeng scratched his head and said, “But I should get used to those things down the road, so I won’t be afraid of them anymore in the future.”
