Chapter 61 -61 Testing their Attitude
“That’s good,” Old Master Xie nodded.
Then the two of them quieted down, seemingly having nothing else to say.
Old Master Xie had been waiting for Xie Yanchuan to speak again, but despite waiting, Yanchuan did not open his mouth, which left Old Master Xie quite helpless.
“When you’re usually with Jinzhi, are you also this taciturn, not saying a word?” Old Master Xie asked.
Yanchuan was startled, recalling that when he was with Xu Jinzhi, she always found many topics to talk about with him, and it seemed that there were rarely moments when they had nothing to say.
Even during occasional silences, it never felt awkward; instead, it made him feel at ease.
That subtle feeling surged in his heart again, and Yanchuan did not know what to say.
Seeing Yanchuan silent, Old Master Xie, somewhat frustrated, said, “You’re about to be married; this personality won’t do.”
Hearing this, Yanchuan seemed to snap back to reality. He looked at Old Master Xie again, his eyes seemingly carrying a hint of a different emotion.
Even when He Shuying came back to the living room, Yanchuan remained quiet. If you don’t initiate a conversation, he wouldn’t say a word.
It wasn’t until Xie Suian and Xie Linchuan both came home, having postponed their work due to a call from He Shuying, that the atmosphere changed.
Even Xie Linchuan, who was despondent due to a breakup, tried his best to smile when he saw Yanchuan.
After all, Yanchuan seldom came home and was not very close with the family.
Dinner was ready; everyone sat down at the dining table to eat.
During the meal, Xie Suian casually asked Yanchuan about his recent situation. As they talked, they eventually shifted from work to his relationship with Xu Jinzhi.
Yanchuan, who had been indifferent, paused briefly upon hearing this and said looking at Xie Suian, “Everything’s pretty good.”
“That’s good.” Xie Suian had a slight smile, clearly very pleased with Xu Jinzhi; otherwise, he wouldn’t have smiled so kindly.
“We plan to pick a suitable day to register our marriage before the wedding,” Yanchuan added.

Xie Suian simply nodded, “Good, just arrange it amongst yourselves.”
“Mhm,” Yanchuan murmured softly, his lashes slightly fluttering as he cast his eyes down.
After the meal, Yanchuan stayed for a while longer, then said, “Grandpa, dad, mom, it’s getting late; I’ll be leaving now.”
There was a moment of silence in the living room, but no one said anything to keep him; after all, even if they had, Yanchuan wouldn’t have listened.
“Be careful on your way, take good care of yourself,” Old Master Xie advised.
“Grandpa, you take care of your health, too,” Yanchuan said.
Then Yanchuan said goodbye to the others and turned to walk outside.
Watching Yanchuan’s departing figure, Old Master Xie felt uneasy; people tend to reflect on their actions after reaching a certain age.
Old Master Xie thought about his way of raising children, wondering if that was the reason why the Xie family had turned out this way.
It appears like a happy family, but actually, everyone has their own concerns, and their hearts are no longer together.
“Hey, didn’t Yanchuan say he came back to get some documents? He seems to have left without taking anything!” He Shuying suddenly exclaimed.
Xie Suian wasn’t sure what Yanchuan had come back to take, but hearing his wife, he was ready to get up and chase after him.
Old Master Xie said, “The car has already driven away; what’s there to chase?”
Xie Suian paused, but quickly suggested, “Let’s give Yanchuan a call.”
But just as the words left his mouth, and before Xie Suian could make the call, they heard Old Master Xie say, “Call for what? Do you really think he came back for some documents?”
When Old Master Xie said this, the people in the living room looked puzzled.
“Hmph!” Old Master Xie snorted, looking at them as if they were fools, “Yanchuan moved out years ago. What documents could he possibly have left here?”
“Well, what did he come back for then?” He Shuying asked, perplexed.
Old Master Xie narrowed his eyes slightly, “Next time you speak, can you think first? This is his home; does he need a reason to come back?”
“Mom!” He Shuying was somewhat unconvinced, as today was the second time she had been scolded over this issue.
Old Master Xie knew he might be finding fault somewhat, he sighed and did not continue the topic, switching back to the original question.
“Hasn’t Linchuan broken up with Ms. Liang?” Old Master Xie said.
Linchuan frowned slightly, not understanding what his breakup with Liang Shiyu had to do with him.
Not only Linchuan was unclear, but Xie Suian and He Shuying were also confused.
Watching his family’s confused faces, Old Master Xie sincerely felt that the downfall of the Xie Family was only a matter of time!
“Originally, it was planned that Linchuan and Jinzhi would be set up for an arranged marriage, but then because Linchuan was still entangled with Ms. Liang, Yanchuan was pulled in instead.”
“He probably came back to test your attitudes, suspecting that now they’ve broken up, you might push Linchuan and Xu Jinzhi together.”
Old Master Xie hadn’t noticed at first, but today, Yanchuan had spontaneously talked only a few sentences, all about his matters with Jinzhi.
Seeing the relief on Yanchuan’s face at the end, how could Old Master Xie not understand?
“I’m too tired to control you now, but don’t use your status as parents to pressure Yanchuan. After all, you’re not qualified parents, just don’t go causing trouble for Yanchuan anymore.”
Old Master Xie was old and knew he owed that grandson, hoping he could live a good life from now on.
He initially thought it was too excessive to push Yanchuan into an arranged marriage, even if Jinzhi was an excellent girl, they shouldn’t have discussed arranged marriage with him.
It seems a blessing in disguise now.
Old Master Xie didn’t say anything more, he stood up and went back to his bedroom, leaving the other three still sitting in the living room.
He Shuying and Xie Suian were still astonished by Yanchuan’s behavior today, while Linchuan was very speechless; although it was a breakup, the person he liked was Liang Shiyu!
Marriage is a lifelong matter; how could he possibly treat it as a transaction?
Meanwhile, Yanchuan was driving back, his face revealing a subtle smile, relieved that they didn’t reconnect Xu Jinzhi with Linchuan’s breakup.
