When he first returned to the Ye family, the scrutiny and arrogance in the eyes of the Ye family were exactly the same as the eyes that Ruan Zhen looked at him with now. He hated these people's inexplicable sense of superiority, like a judge who wanted to convict him.
Jing Xiao saw that he had his eyes down, and he didn't know what he was thinking. He said,"They have been studying abroad for the past few years. In fact, the relationship has become distant. I am not familiar with them."
Lin Xi smiled softly,"Okay, I'm not angry."
Jing Xiao breathed a sigh of relief:"Then are you still eating? Do you want to see my grandfather?"
Lin Xi said,"I won't go back on my word."
He was not afraid, but felt it was troublesome.
Dealing with people is the most troublesome.
So Jing Xiao led him inside, and said as he walked,"My grandfather has had a bad heart these years and has been recuperating abroad. He is easy to get along with, don't worry."
Lin Xi nodded.
Jing Xiao and Lin Xi only exercised outside today and had never stepped into the room. No one told them, so naturally they didn't know that Jing Xiao's grandfather was back and invited a large group of people to visit.
As soon as he entered the Jing family villa, he heard laughter and joy in the hall. Ruan Zhen, Lu Qian and Ji Nuannuan, as well as five or six elderly people with white hair and beards, were drinking tea and playing chess together. The atmosphere was very harmonious.
Jing's father and mother were sitting on the sofa not far from them, watching TV comfortably.
Jing Xiao complained in his heart: This group of idle people are living too happily.
Today is a working day, can't they create some useful value for the society?
Forget about the old people, but those young ones are an eyesore no matter how you look at them!
Jing Xiao felt that his eldest brother was very good at this time. Although his eldest brother's character was worrying, he was willing to shoulder the burden of the Jing family and work hard, which was still worthy of praise.
"Xiao Xiao is back." Jing's mother Zhou Qing saw them,"Xiao Xi is here too."
Lin Xi replied politely with a smile:"Hello, uncle and auntie, hello everyone, I am Lin Xi."
One of the energetic old men smiled and said:"Hello, little friend."
Jing Xiao introduced:" This is my friend, having lunch at home. Xiaoxi, this is my grandpa."
Jing Cong, the grandfather of the Jing family, looked at Lin Xi with a smile:"Welcome."
Lin Xi said:"Hello, Grandpa, sorry to bother you."
Jing's father and mother waved:"Xiao Xi, come and sit over here."
Lin Xi walked over and sat next to Jing's father and mother. Zhou Qing handed him a cup of hot tea:"Be casual, we are all so familiar with each other, just treat it as your own family."
Lin Xi nodded obediently. The three people on Ji Nuannuan's side had different expressions. Ruan Zhen had a natural expression and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Jing Xiao was stopped by his grandfather,"My dear grandson, grandpa is back, why are you so cold."
Jing Xiao looked at his grandfather with a smile:"Two days ago, you said that you would not be back until New Year's Eve, so who is sitting here today?"
Jing Cong laughed:"Isn't this a surprise for you? Are you happy?"
Jing Xiao:"A little bit."
Jing Cong was dissatisfied:"What do you mean by a little bit, it should be a lot."
He smiled kindly,"Where did that little friend come from?"
Jing Xiao:"He is the guest I invited, I have known him for a while"
"So, you think highly of him?"
Jing Xiao nodded,"He is a very important friend of mine."
Jing Cong laughed,"Then go and accompany him. I will play chess with these old friends again."
Jing Xiao nodded, walked over and sat in a corner of the sofa with Lin Xi. Zhou Qing said with concern,"Xiao Xi, I haven't seen you for a while. Why do you seem to be thinner?"
Lin Xi held the hot tea in her hands and covered her hands. She was very obedient."No, I have eaten a lot recently. Maybe I am born with a physique that can't gain weight."
Zhou Qing envied,"It's good to be young. Auntie is old now. I will gain weight if I eat a little. I really envy you young people. You have a good metabolism and can eat whatever you want."
Lin Xi:"Auntie is not fat. She is just the right weight and very beautiful."
Zhou Qing covered her mouth and laughed,"Really? I actually think so, hahaha."
Lin Xi suddenly didn't know how to continue. Why didn't you play by the rules?
Jing Xiao held his forehead,"Mom, you should be more restrained."
Jing Yan laughed on the side,"Xiao Xi, what about me? Is uncle handsome or old?"
Lin Xi answered cautiously:"Uncle is not old, he is very handsome. He must have been a handsome man when he was young."
Jing Yan laughed:"Nonsense, uncle is old and has wrinkles."
Lin Xi:......
He lowered his head and focused on the floor, not wanting to talk to anyone.
Jing Xiao felt a little sympathetic, so he said that his eldest brother inherited his parents' bad character, and he was even better than them. From childhood to adulthood, he always felt that he had mutated!
He was incompatible with this family.
A few old people over there finished playing a game of chess and looked over with a smile,"That child is so handsome."
Ji Nuannuan said,"Yes, he is really good-looking, but if you want to talk about handsomeness, it has to be our Ruan Zhen. No matter from which aspect, he is the best."
Jing Cong raised his eyelids and smiled,"Don't compare, they are all good."
He looked at Lin Xi over there,"Child, don't be restrained. Since you are Xiao Xiao's friend, you are also a guest of my Jing family. Can you play chess? Play a game with grandpa?"
Lin Xi shook her head:"Let the grandparents play, I won't make a fool of myself."
Lu Qian suddenly said,"You don't know how to play chess?"
Lin Xi slowly drank a sip of tea:"I know a little, but I'm not familiar with it."
Ruan Zhen sat aside and smiled when he heard it,"It doesn't matter, winning or losing doesn't matter So-called, just for fun."
At this time, Ji Nuannuan said:"I remember that Ah Zhen, you are very good at chess, right? You are also the president of the Go Club in college, otherwise you can accompany Grandpa Jing to play a game? It would be so bad to spoil the fun."
Ruan Zhen waved his hand:"My three-legged cat skills are not good enough to be on the stage."
Lu Qi'an said at this time:"You are just modest."
Jing Cong and several old people smiled at each other, and the old man of the Ruan family said:"Ah Zhen, then you can accompany old man Jing to play a game. I am happy today and just treat it as entertainment."
Ruan Zhen smiled and nodded:"Okay, since Grandpa has spoken, then I will show my ugliness. Grandpa Jing, you go first."
Several people gathered around the chess table and watched the game with great interest. Ji Nuannuan and Lu Qi'an glanced at Lin Xi, with a little contempt in their eyes.
Lin Xi drank a sip of hot tea, Jing Xiao glanced at them coldly from the side, and Lin Xi smiled at him:"The tea is good, and it is full of green."
The parents of the Jing family looked at each other and saw some clues.
Jing Yan said meaningfully:"Xiao Xiao, you go."
Jing Xiao instantly understood what his father meant. Just as he was about to stand up, Lin Xi pulled him back and put down the empty cup of tea."I didn't say I was familiar with them. I was comparing them with myself."
Lin Xi said softly:"Are these the friends you value?"
Jing Xiao whispered:"It was okay when I was a child, but now we are just casual acquaintances."
Lin Xi nodded, he stood up, walked to Jing Cong, and lowered his head to watch the chess game.
Jing Xiao sat there with a smile in his eyes, and did not move. He picked up a magazine and flipped through it casually with interest, but in fact his attention was all attracted by Lin Xi.
Jing Yan and Zhou Qing didn't understand, but they were also quite excited. Watching a show? They like it!
Seeing their son's calm look, there must be a good show to watch!
Lin Xi silently watched the match between Ruan Zhen and Jing Cong. Ji Nuannuan glanced at him and raised her eyebrows:"Why, you want to play a game too?"
Lin Xi nodded:"Ruan Zhen is so good, I want to learn from him."
Lu Qian:"He won the gold medal in the city Go competition. You are not his opponent."
Lin Xi smiled:"It doesn't matter. Isn't it said that winning or losing is not important?"
At this time, Ruan Zhen made the last move. Jing Cong praised:"Great, I lost."
Ruan Zhen smiled appropriately:"Grandpa, thank you."
Jing Cong laughed and said to the old man of the Ruan family:"Your precious grandson is really good!" Oh, I am no match for him."
Old Master Ruan looked at Ruan Zhen with satisfaction:"He has always been smart, but, Old Man Jing, your Jing Xiao and Jing Chen are not bad either."
Jing Cong said proudly:"Of course."
At this time Ji Nuannuan said:"Ah Zhen, Lin Xi said she wanted to compete with you."
Ruan Zhen had actually noticed Lin Xi a long time ago, and he said:"Okay, no problem."
Jing Cong glanced at Lin Xi:"Really?" Lin Xi nodded:"I will show mercy." The faces of several people present changed, and Jing Cong frowned:"Young man, don't be quick to talk, be down-to-earth.
"
"That's right, Lin Xi, you said you only know a little bit, but you are so arrogant, are you insulting me?"Ji Nuannuan looked unhappy.
The other old men also looked unhappy. Where did this little kid come from? He overestimates his own abilities.
