The next morning, Xia Yichu and Pei Shizhou arrived at Xu Shaoyang's house, having just visited the day before. After registering, the guard let them in.

At this moment, the entire Xu family was present, including Xu Shaoyang's eldest sister and brother, and the whole family was talking to Xu Shaoyang.

"Xiaoyang, remember to call home, and make time to come home every month."

Grandma Xu, her eyes reddening, said that she was over seventy years old and that every meeting with her grandson would be one less opportunity to see him. The old man was right; their grandson had ideals and ambitions, and they should let him go and explore them.

"Okay, Grandma, you also need to take care of yourself. I'll take care of you and give you a better life."

Grandma Xu is quite old and has experienced all kinds of life. All she wants is for her grandson to be safe and healthy.

"Okay, sure."

She couldn't bear to refuse her grandson's kindness, so she happily agreed, but then couldn't help but shed tears.

"Grandpa, Grandpa, Grandma, please take care of yourselves. Big brother, big sister, please take good care of the family for me."

The eldest sister of the Xu family laughed heartily and said, "Little brother, if you suffer any grievances over there, just tell the family."

Brother Xu also reminded him, "Be careful outside, and don't overwork yourself."

Xu Shaoyang agreed to everything. When Xia Yichu and Pei Shizhou arrived at the Xu family home, apart from Xu's father, Xu Shaoyang, and his older siblings, everyone else had red eyes, as if they were going through a life-or-death separation.

Xu Shaoyang introduced Xia Yichu and Pei Shizhou to his family. The two of them greeted the Xu family and chatted with them for a while.

Then, urged by Xu Shaoyang, they prepared to leave, and by then it was almost nine o'clock.

Afterwards, the Xu family loaded Xu Shaoyang's luggage into the car, and Xu Shaoyang waved goodbye to everyone. The car started and slowly drove away from the Xu family's home.

Pei Shizhou was also taken to the airport by Song Qihang to catch a flight back to Kyoto. Xu Shaoyang saw the Xu family members still standing in the same spot in the rearview mirror, and his eyes also became moist, filled with reluctance to part with his family.

"Now that transportation is convenient and you have your own car, it only takes two hours to get home. If you miss your family, you can come back and visit them."

Xu Shaoyang thought about it and realized it made sense. His mood instantly lightened, and he even felt like joking with Xia Yichu.

"Pei Shizhou is reassured that you can come to Hong Kong with me. He's not afraid that we'll develop feelings for each other over time, nor is he afraid that I'll steal you away."

If it were him, he definitely wouldn't want his girlfriend to do business with another man.

You won't.

Why?

Xia Yichu chuckled lightly, "Because you're a womanizer, you're a ladies' man, you like girls of different styles, and you won't give up your personality for any girl."

Xu Shaoyang touched his nose, feigning grievance, "I'm just very charming, so it's inevitable that I have many women around me. Besides, since I fell for you, I've basically stopped bothering those girls."

But even though I'm rich and handsome, girls still flock to me one after another, and there's nothing I can do about it. But don't worry, I have principles. There's a saying, "I won't let any leaf touch me."

Xu Shaoyang is soft-hearted and can't stand seeing beautiful women cry. So, sometimes he inevitably gets harassed by others.

Just as he said, during his time in Hong Kong, he only chatted and joked with people. Because he still had Xia Yichu in his heart, he didn't cross any lines with other women.

Xia Yichu rolled her eyes and said, "Passing through a sea of ​​flowers, not a single petal clings to me."

"Yes, that's it. Yichu, if you dump Pei Shizhou now and agree to be my girlfriend, I promise I'll stay chaste and pure for you. From now on, I'll keep a meter's distance from any girl I see."

Xu Shaoyang confidently declared that he believed he and Xia Yichu would be able to win her over one day, as they spent every day together.

"No need, Shizhou is fine."

"What's so great about him? He's so much older than you. In a few years, when he gets older, you won't even be presentable when you go out. We're a perfect match, the same age, so we'll have plenty to talk about."

"Xu Shaoyang, we're not a good match."

Xia Yichu spoke seriously, indicating that if Xu Shaoyang continued his endless pestering, she didn't necessarily have to do business with him. She had money and the potential to live a long life; she could find Zheng Leran to do business with on her own.

Of course, Xia Yichu wouldn't want to do this unless absolutely necessary. Xu Shaoyang was a natural businessman and was doing very well in Hong Kong. She had never been to Hong Kong before, so she was bound to be clueless and know nothing when she first arrived.

"Tell me what's wrong with it, and I'll change it, okay?"

This was the first time Xu Shaoyang had ever liked someone so seriously, and Xia Yichu was the first girl to look down on him.

"Xu Shaoyang, business partners are the most enduring relationship. Perhaps Pei Shizhou and I will part ways one day, but doing business with you won't have that problem."

"You're right, that way we can do business together forever."

Xia Yichu didn't know Xu Shaoyang's thought process, but as long as he didn't bother her, it was fine.

"By the way, how did you and Zheng Leran meet?"

"It's all because I was too kind-hearted that I got into this trouble. That day, on my way home, I saw a few of them being kicked out by the landlord because they couldn't pay their rent."

After I went upstairs to find out what was going on, I paid them two months' rent. Zheng Leran insisted that I leave my address, saying they would pay me back when they earned money later.

At first I said no, but they insisted, so I left my address.

When Zheng Leran and the others were kicked out, it was the dead of winter, and it happened to be drizzling that day.

Most importantly, one of them was a girl, who was said to be Zheng Leran's cousin. She was pretty and cute, and he helped them out of a moment of weakness.

"And then?" Xia Yichu asked curiously.

"After some time, Zheng Leran came to our door. I thought they were coming to return the money," Xu Shaoyang said with a frustrated expression.

"Isn't that right?"

Xia Yichu was unaware of their past experiences, and that Zheng Leran was in such a sorry state at this time, unable to even afford to rent a place.

"No, damn it, they're treating me like a sucker. They originally wanted to borrow money from me, but when they saw that I was in business, they wanted to get me to invest in starting a company."

The four of them don't even have money for rent and food, yet they want to start a company with me. Isn't that ridiculous?

Yichu, take my advice: you can start an entertainment company if you want, but we should do it ourselves. Don't cooperate with them; they're a bunch of swindlers.

Xu Shaoyang said angrily, "If I had known I would be entangled with them, I wouldn't have bothered with their business."

"We'll talk about this later. When we meet in Hong Kong, you can arrange for me to meet with them. We can discuss anything after that meeting."

Seeing that Xia Yichu was still persistent, Xu Shaoyang had no choice but to agree.

"Alright! Once you meet them, you'll see how unreliable those guys are."

The two stopped talking about these topics and continued driving on the highway. Xu Shaoyang would occasionally crack a joke, making Xia Yichu laugh.
