Mr. Yan, wake up! Your wife isn't a delicate little flower.

"Xihe, after you return to China, are you going straight home, or what?" Yan Mingchuan glanced at Cheng Xihe.

Cheng Xihe thought for a moment, playing with her newly done manicure: "Let's go to the Helan family. I promised them I would meet them."

"I'll go with you," Yan Mingchuan said without hesitation.

Su Jin silently shut up.

What could he say if Brother Yan wanted to go?

Besides, there is indeed a high possibility that the Helan family will become Yan Ge's in-laws in the future.

"Emmm..."

After hesitating for a while, Cheng Xihe said, "Actually, it's okay. I can go by myself. You don't need to trouble yourself to come with me."

"I'll go with you."

Yan Mingchuan replied truthfully, "It just so happens that I haven't had any contact with the Helan family yet, so I'll take this opportunity to do so."

"Need not."

Cheng Xihe shook his head: "I can handle this by myself."

Moreover, I may not return to the Helan family immediately.

"It seems Xihe has other plans." Yan Mingchuan looked up at Cheng Xihe, his eyes full of smiles.

Cheng Xihe chuckled softly, "Of course."

As soon as the plane landed, the Helan family sent a car to wait for Cheng Xihe at the parking spot.

Cheng Xihe raised his eyebrows and patted Yan Mingchuan on the shoulder: "President Yan, could you please take all the stuff I bought home for me?"

She bought a lot of things while shopping in Europe these past few days.

Yan Mingchuan remained expressionless: "Okay."

"Xihe!"

Helan Jing walked towards Cheng Xihe with a smile on her face: "Welcome back, Xihe."

"Are you here to pick me up, Senior Jing?" Cheng Xihe asked with a light laugh.

He Lanyu stood beside the car: "My sister and I arrived a long time ago, waiting for you to come with us."

"Going straight home?"

Cheng Xihe raised an eyebrow: "Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

"No, let's go to the hotel first so you can meet your parents and we can get to know each other better," He Lanjing said softly.

Cheng Xihe waved his hand in refusal: "It's best not to go back to the Helan family. I haven't finished dealing with things outside yet."

"Hmm? What's wrong?" He Lanjing grabbed Cheng Xihe's hand and got into the car with her.

Cheng Xihe slowly withdrew his hand: "It's just a small matter, but I need to take care of it properly."

"If you don't want to talk about it, that's fine." He Lanjing lowered her head regretfully.

Cheng Xihe chuckled: "I'll tell you all when we get there."

"it is good."

The car drove away from the airport.

On the other side, Yan Mingchuan had another car brought to take back the large amount of things Cheng Xihe had bought.

"Brother Yan, Sister-in-law bought so many things!" Su Jin couldn't help but sigh.

It's rare to see so many that they need to be hauled away in a small truck.

Yan Mingchuan said expressionlessly, "She bought everything with her own money; she didn't use my money."

"So that's why you're unhappy! It's because your sister-in-law doesn't want your money!" Su Jin laughed heartily.

Yan Mingchuan gave him a cold look, and Su Jin quickly raised his hands in surrender: "Brother, I was wrong, I shouldn't have laughed at you, please let me go."

This person is a jerk and gets punished, so he likes to keep being a jerk.

Su Jin pushed Yan Mingchuan a couple of steps before asking gossipily, "Brother Yan, did you say your sister-in-law bought you a gift?"

"If you can't speak properly, you can shut up." Yan Mingchuan glanced at him coldly, his fists clenching.

Touching her nose, Su Jin silently shut her mouth.

He was afraid that if he asked any more questions, he would get beaten up by Brother Yan.

Inside the hotel.

Cheng Xihe followed He Lanjing and the others to a private room.

The private room had a table for ten people, and two people were already sitting inside.

Upon seeing Cheng Xihe enter, both of them excitedly stood up.

These are the current head and wife of the Helan family.

These are Cheng Xihe's biological parents.

"My child, you're finally back."

He Lanzhen's hands trembled, his eyes filled with relief.

His child had been missing for so many years, and his family had searched for so long before they were finally able to reunite!

"child!"

The three's mother, Bai Xiwei, was moved to tears.

The two men walked shakily to Cheng Xihe's side, trying to grab her wrist.

Cheng Xihe raised his hand and pressed down on their wrists: "We don't need to do this. Don't cry. Sit down and talk slowly."

Standing like this is tiring, there's no need for it.

He Lanjing and He Lanyu exchanged a glance, and each helped the other to sit down.

The two sat in the main seats, while the remaining three children sat opposite them.

Bai Xiwei pursed her lips: "We don't need to sit so far away, do we? Why don't we sit next to Mom?"

"Yes, Xihe, you can sit here with Dad too." Helan Zhen looked at Cheng Xihe expectantly.

Seeing this, He Lanyu quickly said, "Why won't you let me sit over there, Dad?"

Get lost!

Helan Zhen glared at Helan Yu, then looked at Cheng Xihe and chuckled twice: "Haha, Xihe, I'm not usually that fierce."

"I know."

Cheng Xihe smiled slightly, and He Lanjing next to her said, "Let's eat and chat at the same time, so the atmosphere won't be too awkward."

"OK."

After eating some food, the group began to chat.

He Lanjing asked curiously, "Mom, what exactly happened back then?"

"I'd like to know too." He Lanyu nodded.

The three children looked at the two expectantly.

He Lanzhen patted Bai Xiwei's hand and comforted her, "Go ahead and talk about it. It's been so long since it happened. It's okay to talk about it now. I'm here with you."

"Um."

Bai Xiwei nodded.

Cheng Xihe glanced at her, his gaze falling on Bai Xiwei's pale lips, and his curiosity grew even stronger.

Did something happen back then?

Bai Xiwei struggles to control her emotions whenever she recalls what happened back then.

Her eyes immediately reddened, and she grabbed He Lanzhen's arm: "I don't remember the specifics of what happened back then very clearly."

All I know is that I gave birth to you twins and was lying in bed feeling very weak.

At that time, your father was very busy. He happened to be working on a project abroad and wasn't with me.

All I remember is a nurse saying that the smaller one was dying and needed to be sent to an incubator.

The aunt next to me went with the nurse…

"Have some tea." Seeing this, He Lanjing quickly poured a glass of water for her mother.

After taking a sip, Bai Xiwei said sadly, "It's all because I wasn't careful. I'm useless. I was too weak and fainted afterwards."

"I rushed back that same day."

Helan Zhen patted Bai Xiwei's back, pulled her into his arms, and then said:

"When I came back, the nurse and the aunt who was with your mother were gone."

That auntie had been following us for several years; we never expected her to be a spy!

The nurse is gone, and the auntie has disappeared too.

"Over the years, your parents have never stopped searching for you, but the chances are getting slimmer and slimmer, and they are both finding it hard to bear it."

He Lanjing said helplessly from the side.

Cheng Xihe smiled, got up, walked over, and hugged the two of them: "It's okay, I'm back, I'm fine."

"Xihe, come home with us!" Bai Xiwei grabbed Cheng Xihe's wrist.

Shaking his head, Cheng Xihe said, "Not now. I still have things to take care of. Give me another two months."

"Xihe." Bai Xiwei looked at Cheng Xihe expectantly.

Cheng Xihe remained adamant about not going back: "You have to listen to me on this matter. Just wait for me, I'll handle it soon."

The group exchanged glances, and could only respect Cheng Xihe's opinion.

Next, we'll slowly deal with the Qin family...
