Back to 1984: Let's Work Hard Together to Raise The Kids! Chapter 240: All Rushed Over Together
"How absurd!" Wang Suling was furious. "Is this an attitude for admitting mistakes? How outrageous! Old Xue, go knock so sense into Zhang Long later, so he doesn’t think the Chen family is easy to push around!"
Father Xue nodded repeatedly, "Indeed, Xinyue was threatened by that bastard Zhang Jingxuan because of Lingxue, it’s unreasonable to let your family suffer grievances because of it!"
Chen Wenjun was just about to speak when the sound of a boat suddenly ca from outside the door.
He got up to go see.
Then he laughed with surprise, "Why have you co? Just got back?"
Everyone in the room turned around in surprise, and through the glass, they could vaguely see the approaching person’s bold and hurried steps.
Gao Lei shouted with his voice raised, "Where’s Xinyue? I heard sothing happened to the kid, I had to rush back to take a look, which bastard dares to bully my daughter on my turf, don’t they want to live?"
"Where did you hear this from?"
"None of your business! If it wasn’t for having to leave An City with Junjun for an urgent matter, we would have been at that banquet! It’s useless arguing with here!" Gao Lei said angrily.
As he spoke, he had already climbed the steps, heading toward the living room.
He was obviously not expecting guests at the Chen family and was montarily stunned to see Father and Mother Xue but imdiately put on a new face, "Director Xue! What a coincidence! How co you’re here at the Chen family with Director Wang?"
"Oh! Isn’t this Young Master Gao! You’re here too!" Father Xue hurriedly stood up to shake hands with Gao Lei.
His eyes were filled with a mix of shock and confusion, glancing at Chen Wenjun and then at Gao Lei, unable to understand how they had gotten connected, and it seed like their relationship was not ordinary.
Wang Suling was similarly startled, continuously smiling apologetically.
Everyone knew that the Xue family was already one of the top families in An City, but the Gao family was even more powerful, with five high-ranking mbers in the family, three of whom were in the capital, with one identity that could not be disclosed.
Even though Gao Lei wasn’t involved in politics or the military, as the most favored male in the Gao family with a flourishing business that connected both legal and illegal circles, no one in their social circle didn’t know him.
Gao Lei sat down casually, gesturing for Father and Mother Xue to sit, "Visitors are guests; no need to be so formal. Where are the kids? Brother, where have you hidden my daughter? Is her situation so bad that you don’t dare let see her?"
Chen Wenjun, caught between laughter and tears, pointed upstairs, "She’s fine! Playing upstairs."
Lin Qin got up, "You make the tea, and I’ll go call them."
In no ti, Chen Xinyue and her siblings ca downstairs with Xue Lingxue.
Upon seeing Gao Lei, the siblings happily ran forward, calling in unison, "Hello, godfather!"
"Good, good, good... haven’t seen you for a few years, and you’re all grown up! Xinyue, I heard you were threatened, co and tell Dad about it, Dad will back you up, no matter which scoundrel did it, Dad will finish him off!" Gao Lei initially wore a loving face, but he imdiately changed his expression when ntioning the matter.
The gritting teeth looked like he would really peel Zhang Jingxuan’s skin.
Chen Xinyue quickly shook her head, "Godfather, I’ve grown up; can you let handle it first? If I can’t, I promise to call you and let you finish him off!"
She playfully made a shooting gesture, making Gao Lei laugh heartily, relaxing his expression.
"Alright! A tiger father will not breed a cowardly daughter! If you want to charge up, godfather won’t stop you, but don’t put yourself in danger, understand?" Gao Lei reminded seriously again.
Chen Xinyue nodded heavily and asked, "Where are godmother and my brothers? Didn’t they co back?"
Gao Lei laughed and took a sip of tea, muttering, "Just got back, those twins are causing trouble, your godmother is still at ho acting as a judge, they’ll probably bring those little brats over later, tonight we’ll dine at your place."
"Great! I’ll ask godmother and my brothers what they want to eat and make arrangents now!" Chen Xinyue joyfully pulled Xue Lingxue, "Let’s go! How about we play in the field?"
Xue Lingxue nodded like a chick pecking rice, following closely behind Chen Xinyue.
Chen Ruiyu said a couple of sentences to Gao Lei before grabbing a basket and chasing after them.
Only then did Gao Lei retract his gaze, speaking to Father and Mother Xue, "The Zhang family has beco more and more outrageous these years! They weren’t like this when Old Chairman Zhang was around! How did they explain things to you?"
Father Xue imdiately knew Gao Lei intended to intervene, silently lighting a few candles for the Zhang family in his mind, suppressing his inner joy, and recounting every word Zhang Long had said when he ca over the other day.
Gao Lei and Chen Wenjun couldn’t help but snicker simultaneously.
Lin Qin looked exasperated, "Do they think Annie is easy to bully, pushing all the bla on her! How shaless! Gao Lei, I have to say that Annie is also a victim, and she has a pretty good character, courageous and responsible. Even after such a ss that day, she managed to protect the two kids and leave. On the contrary, Zhang Jingxuan is nothing, always blaming others, petty and selfish."
Wang Suling nodded in deep agreent and joined in with a few scolding words.
After Gao Lei knew the ins and outs of the matter and how the Zhang family handled things afterward, his face darkened, and he called his n imdiately, instructing them to cause trouble for the Zhang family.
After making the call, this matter was considered settled.
By this ti, Chen Xinyue and the others had gone wild in the field.
Especially Xue Lingxue, who had never been to the countryside or picked vegetables herself, she was full of excitent, especially seeing the trees full of fruit, she was so excited, laughing and shouting.
Her voice even reached inside the house.
Wang Suling felt a sudden jolt of embarrassnt, saying, "This girl is too impolite!"
Lin Qin shook her head, comforting, "It’s just a child’s nature; as long as they’re having fun, that’s what matters. There’s nothing impolite about it; we don’t have such strict rules at ho."
"Sister-in-law is right, as long as the children are happy. By the way, sister-in-law, did Ping’an and Yaya say anything about their future plans? If they don’t have any ideas, they can join the company. Not to ntion my side, but your family has such a large enterprise that soone has to take care of it, right?"
Gao Lei shifted the topic to the children’s future plans.
Chen Wenjun chuckled bitterly twice, "I agree with you, but just because we adults think it’s a good idea doesn’t an the kids will like it. We talked about it the other day, and Yaya wants to go to the capital for developnt, while Ping’an says he wants to try his luck in Hong Kong since he studied that."
Gao Lei’s eyes lit up instantly, "Hong Kong is great! I’ve been developing in Guangdong Province these years, and I have a lot of business in Hong Kong; I even have a house there ready. Let him go! My people will be there to look after him!
The capital is good too; my parents are there, and they already like Yaya, I just have to tell them, easy!"
Lin Qin laughed, "With all your arrangents, what would they explore for? I say we shouldn’t worry about anything, let them be self-reliant; whether they have the ability will be clear to see. If they can make a na for themselves, we can rest assured for them to take over the family business in the future. If they don’t do well, they can co back to inherit the family business, and we can teach them from scratch. Even if they don’t expand it, they can maintain it."
