Chapter 220 Sister-in-law, open the door. I am his brother (19)
Because of what happened last time, the atmosphere between Ruan Guannan and Lu Chi became much colder.
Lu Chi was a little anxious and wanted to find an opportunity to make up for it.
But in the next few days, Lu Chi once again realized how annoying this group of people was. He had no chance to be alone with Ruan Guannan, let alone improve their relationship.
Finally, the group of people returned to Beijing in a mighty manner, and he was immediately asked by Xie Jinyi to follow up on the project progress, and this busy process lasted another month.
Xie Jinyi was also very busy. He had accumulated a lot of work while traveling, and he worked non-stop for almost a week to finish it.
But while he was busy, he did not forget an important matter that was weighing on his mind.
Ever since Xie Jinyi accidentally discovered during the last dinner at Lu Chi's house that Lu Chi and Lin Pianpian might have a relationship beyond normal friends, he sent someone to investigate.
As expected, Lu Chi likes Lin Pianpian.
He carefully recalled the details that he had not noticed before, and found that Lu Chi's performance was quite obvious, but he was not interested in paying attention to it before.
Xie Jinyi had a headache. If he had known there was such a connection, he would never have agreed to marry into the Lin family.
But he felt that it was not too late now, lovers would eventually get married, right?
He was willing to help both of them.
You mean Lu Chi might not like her anymore?
Sorry, he didn't see it. He only saw that Lu Chi's love for Lin Pianpian remained the same over the years. How could he change in such a short time?
Xie Jinyi flicked the cigarette between his fingertips, raised his hand and took a puff, his deep and profound eyes hidden in the layers of smoke, the dominance and plunder hidden under his skin were clearly revealed.
That night, Xie Jinyi took the initiative to return to the old house, which was a rare occasion.
Grandpa Xie was quite puzzled, but after all, he hadn't seen his grandson for a while, so the old man was still very happy.
But when he thought about his messy life, his happiness was greatly reduced.
He has always been very proud of his grandson, who has much of the same style as he did when he was a business leader. The only thing he is dissatisfied with is his grandson's marriage and offspring.
At first he thought that it was no big deal if she didn't like him. Don't feelings develop over time?
But he didn't expect that his grandson was so stubborn and refused to bow his head.
This personality is very similar to mine, and Grandpa Xie doesn't know whether he should be happy or not.
Looking at the person sitting next to him without saying a word, he couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark.
"Oh, what a rare visitor! It's not easy for an old guy like me to see my grandson."
"Grandpa, I'm going to get a divorce."
Xie Jinyi did not beat around the bush and directly stated his purpose.
"What?!!!"
Grandpa Xie's voice suddenly rose several decibels, and his originally sarcastic expression was distorted a little by shock.
Xie Jinyi's expression was very serious. He did not have any intention of testing or joking. Instead, he made his thoughts clear.
Grandpa Xie's eyes were sharp and cold, and his aura from decades of business career immediately spread out. He asked in a deep voice:
"reason?"
Xie Jinyi did not retreat at all, and confronted him implicitly, staring into the old man's eyes and saying word by word:
"I'm in love with someone, and I only want to spend the rest of my life with her."
Grandpa Xie was startled, looked him up and down in disbelief, and questioned:
"You are not trying to trick me just to get a divorce, are you? Is there anyone else you like?"
Xie Jinyi nodded seriously, his tone firm.
"Yes, I was lucky enough to meet him."
Grandpa Xie was even more surprised, and believed it a little. He leaned forward slightly and asked in a low voice:
"You really like this fairy? Whose? How far have you two progressed?"
When talking about the person he likes, Xie Jinyi's stern expression softened a bit. He felt inexplicably uncomfortable being stared at by the old man.
"It's just my wishful thinking at the moment."
When he thought of her current identity, Xie Jinyi's eyes darkened again. He lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then took out his mobile phone, pulled out a photo and handed it to the old man.
Grandpa Xie glanced at him with disdain and said speechlessly:
"Look at your attitude just now, I thought you had already caught her, but after all this time you're still unrequited love?"
While looking at her with disdain, he took the phone and prepared to see what the "goddess" his grandson liked looked like.
Seeing this, Grandpa Xie's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Oh, she really is a fairy? You have too high standards, no wonder you never like Pian Pian..."
Grandpa Xie's voice got lower and lower as he spoke. His brows slightly frowned as he looked at the photo, and he muttered:
"I'm just looking at it. Why does it look familiar?"
He thought about it carefully for a long time, and the answer was almost on the tip of his tongue, but he just couldn't remember it.
But it’s not Grandpa Xie’s fault that he can’t remember. He only saw her from a distance at the wedding. After the two of them had a car accident last time, he was focused on Xie Jinyi and had no time to look at the person next door.
He felt that he looked familiar, or it was because Ruan Guannan's face was so outstanding that it left an impression on Grandpa Xie, but he was not familiar with it, and he couldn't remember it all of a sudden.
But this did not stop the old man from teasing Xie Jinyi.
"Good boy, you really have your eyes on a fairy. If you really like her, then grandpa will support you!"
Grandpa Xie was so afraid that Xie Jinyi would be alone for the rest of his life without even any descendants. Now that he finally fell in love with someone, it was difficult for Grandpa Xie to say no.
"Whose girl is this?"
Xie Jinyi's heart tightened suddenly, but he still answered:
"You should know her grandfather. I'll tell you the rest later."
Grandpa Xie nodded in understanding, "Since you like it, I think it should be good."
Xie Jinyi nodded in agreement, "Yeah, she's fine."
Grandpa Xie couldn't accept his perverted look and said sarcastically:
"Then why don't you take action? Are you sure you want to keep such a good girl with you?"
Xie Jinyi clenched his hands slightly and said in a deep voice:
"She's married, and I'm waiting for my chance."
After thinking about it, he decided to inform the old man in advance. No matter whether Grandpa Xie supported it or not, he would not change his mind.
Now if you mention Grandpa Xie, you will just think that he is a worthless person, and you will not have any bad impression on Ruan Guannan.
“Cough cough cough cough…”
Grandpa Xie was choked hard, and looked at Xie Jinyi with his eyes wide open, saying in disbelief:
"Are you planning to poach people? Which guy is so unlucky?"
Grandpa Xie felt a little sympathetic to the couple that Xie Jinyi had targeted. Based on his understanding of his grandson, he would not give up until he achieved his goal.
Poor thing...
Xie Jinyi pursed his lips and didn't tell him.
The Xie family and the Lu family are old friends. Not only are he and Lu Chi good friends, but Grandpa Xie and the old man of the Lu family also have a close relationship.
He was afraid that if he suddenly told the old man that he wanted to poach the granddaughter-in-law of his best friend, the old man would get excited and interfere.
If he really ruined the plan, Xie Jinyi would have no place to cry.
Grandpa Xie rubbed his brows, feeling a little annoyed by this grandson who was nearly thirty years old but suddenly rebellious. However, with his stubborn temper, since he had already made up his mind, it would be useless for him to say more. He could only solemnly warn:
"I won't stop you from doing anything you want to do next, but you have to make good arrangements for your current marriage. Don't be too cold-hearted, and make sure you get the compensation you deserve."
Xie Jinyi nodded seriously, "Don't worry, I won't give her less than what I promised in the prenuptial agreement."
Grandpa Xi then waved his hand, signaling this annoying grandson to disappear from his sight as soon as possible and he didn't want to interfere in his life anymore.
Of course, this is because the old man doesn’t know whose employees he is going to poach yet.
If he knew, he would have stopped it no matter what.
Xie Jinyi later said innocently: Anyway, I have already shown you the photos. If you didn’t remember it, that’s your problem. You can’t blame me for not telling you in advance…
