Chapter 882: Chapter 882

While they were talking, Xia Hao led An Yiqing and the others out of the elevator and unlocked the door with his key.

"Mom and Dad, Xiao Qing is here."

As soon as Xia Hao finished speaking, a flurry of hurried footsteps came from inside the house, followed by a middle-aged couple with half-gray hair, smiling warmly as they emerged.

"Xiao Qing, come on in! Wow, such a good-looking group of guys and girls? Everyone, please come in, don’t be shy, make yourselves at home!" Mother Xia, all smiles, pulled An Yiqing into the house, frantically fetching slippers and pouring water, clearly enjoying herself.

The honest and simple Father Xia looked at An Yiqing and the others with warm eyes, silently assisting Mother Xia.

An Yiqing took a discreet glance at Father Xia and Mother Xia and let out a soft sigh. They were originally about the same age as her own parents, but the Xia couple had aged a lot. When she had seen them a year ago, they had no white hair, yet in just one year’s time, the couple had aged so much.

It seemed that Old Lady Xia’s troublesome bunch was indeed heart-wrenching!

"Uncle and Auntie, it’s been a while, and we came in a rush this time. I’ve only brought some simple tonics for you, please don’t dismiss them."

Father Xia and Mother Xia quickly reached out to take the gifts An Yiqing offered, disapprovingly saying, "Girl Qing, just come by, why bring gifts? Uncle and Auntie have everything we need here, how could we let you spend your money. Come, sit down quick, have some water, and take a rest."

An Yiqing briefly introduced Gu Yelin and the others to Father Xia and Mother Xia. Although the Xia couple didn’t keep up with the news due to their busy lives, they were well aware of Old Commander Gu of the Gu Family. Today, they had actually met the grandson of Old Commander Gu, leaving them at a loss, overwhelmed with excitement.

"Uh... Gu, Gu, Gu..." Father Xia stuttered a few times, not knowing what to call Gu Yelin and looked at An Yiqing for help.

"Uncle, his name is Gu Yelin, just call him by his name," An Yiqing said with a slight smile, smoothing things over for Father Xia.

"Uh... okay, fine!" Father Xia nodded awkwardly, pouring a cup of tea for Gu Yelin, "Mr. Gu, our home is humble, please don’t mind it."

Seeing the cautious demeanor of Father Xia and Mother Xia, An Yiqing glanced at Gu Yelin with mischievous delight and said with a light smile, "Uncle and Auntie, you don’t need to be so formal, Ah Lin doesn’t bite."

With An Yiqing’s words of comfort, Father Xia and Mother Xia finally relaxed.

"Girl Qing, you and Haozi go and have some fun. Uncle and Auntie will go out and buy some groceries to cook something delicious for you."

They refused An Yiqing’s kind offer to take them out to eat, and Father Xia and Mother Xia went out the door, each carrying a cloth bag.

"Haozi, have Old Lady Xia and the others been coming to the house to make trouble frequently?" Noticing the pile of hurriedly placed broken dishes on the kitchen table, An Yiqing furrowed her brows and asked.

"Yeah, they come almost every day. If my parents don’t open the gate, they just sit at the doorstep and cause a scene, making the neighbors think my parents did something to them," Xia Hao explained.

How could this be allowed to continue? Xia Hao was about to take his graduation exams, and if his family came to make a fuss again today, they might as well forget about sleeping that night.

"Haozi, why don’t you stay out for today? I have a place next to the school that’s very quiet and perfect for rest. I suggest you focus on yourself these next few days for your graduation exams. Otherwise, if Old Lady Xia comes to make trouble again, I fear you won’t get any sleep."

Xia Hao hesitated for a moment, thought it over, and then nodded in agreement with An Yiqing’s suggestion.

He had always been easy-going, so a change of environment wasn’t a big deal for him. If Old Lady Xia came to cause a disturbance again for the next few nights, he really wouldn’t be able to perform well on his exams.
