Chapter 603: Chapter 591: Return to Kyoto

"Big brother, why did you come to pick us up personally?" Xia Yue, holding Xuanxuan, sat at the back, with the system and Dragon Lord Ao Ye sitting next to her. The elder Mr. and Mrs. Xia sat in the middle, and Xia Tian sat in the co-driver’s seat.

"I just happened to be free, so I rushed over. Xia Yan and the others wanted to come too, but my dad thought it wasn’t good to have too many people following, so they didn’t come." Xia Tian turned his head and said.

"And what about your parents?" The elder Mr. Xia asked him.

"They are busy at the company. With the end of the year approaching, there are lots of things at the company to finish." Xia Tian said, trying to muster up his courage.

"I knew it, they rush me to come back, yet they’re busy with their own things. I really don’t understand why they rush me so urgently." The elder Mr. Xia snorted coldly, voicing his dissatisfaction very clearly.

"Enough! The kids are worried about you. When they don’t ask after you, you feel neglected, and when they urge you to return home, you complain that they are nagging. You’re really hard to please." Mrs. Xia glared at her grumpy husband.

"Exactly my point, they’re not around after making us come back. We’re simply left to our own devices. In the holiday resort, we could roam around, pick some vegetables, climb some mountains, or play some games - it was so much fun. But back home, there are so many restrictions, we’re cooped up the whole day at home, and I’m tired of it." The elder Mr. Xia complained to her.

"That’s enough! We’re only back home for a few days." Mrs Xia, understanding that he preferred the freedom of their vacation, tried to reassure him patiently.

"Grandpa, grandma, are you planning to go back to the resort after a few days at home?" Overhearing their conversation, Xia Tian immediately turned around and asked.

"Yes, since you all aren’t often at home, we would rather be at the resort as there are people for us to interact with." The elder Mr. Xia glanced at him and said.

"Grandpa, we...." Xia Tian felt a bit embarrassed and tried to explain, but he was cut off before he could finish.

"Okay, enough! We know you all are busy and that it’s for the sake of the family. So we don’t expect you to be home with us.

We aren’t doing much at home anyway and it’s nice to play at the resort. The environment at Yueyue’s place is great, with excellent accommodation and food." The elder Mr. Xia interrupted him.

"Alright." Seeing the determination in their eyes, Xia Tian knew there was no changing their minds, and decided to discuss it with his father and uncles when he returned.

Two hours later, they arrived at the old Xia family mansion.

The housekeeper was waiting at the gate with outstretched arms, welcoming them.

"Master, madam, Miss Yue, you’re finally back." The housekeeper greeted them with a wide smile.

"We’re back. You must’ve had a hard time taking care of the house in our absence. The car behind is loaded with fruits and vegetables brought back from the holiday resort, as well as some poultry. Please have someone sort it out, keep the live ones for raising, save some for the New Year’s eve dinner and for entertaining guests on the first and second day of the new year, the rest can be consumed over the next few days." The elder Mr. Xia was full of smiles. No matter what, this man had been serving them for tens of years, and he felt a bit uneasy when first going to the holiday resort without him.

"Okay, okay, I will do it right away." The housekeeper nodded.

"Grandpa, let’s go inside, it’s cold out here." Said Xia Tian.

The elder Mr. and Mrs. Xia nodded and walked into the mansion.

Xia Yue, still holding Xuanxuan, followed them into the mansion, with the system and Dragon Lord Ao Ye by her side.

The luggage was taken care of by the servants, so she didn’t need to worry about it.
