Chapter 795: Chapter 796: Won’t You Call Me Uncle?

Province N, Chiang Xiao was visiting for the first time as well.

Yu Hang and Xi Minghui’s families lived in the provincial capital of Province N, City J.

It took five hours to get there by train from the county town, which wasn’t really that far.

The leaves on the trees outside City J had begun to fall, as it was already autumn.

City J was a bit closer to Capital City than before, and whenever she went to Capital City by train she would pass through City J station. Chiang Xiao had seen the name several times, but she had never thought that one day she would come to City J.

"It’s a few degrees cooler here than in City M, are you cold?" Yu Hang turned his head and asked Chiang Xiao.

Chiang Xiao shook her head.

This time, they had taken three days off, plus Sunday, for a total of four days.

"My dad is coming to pick us up, let’s go, let’s get out of the station. I know where he’ll park his car," Xi Minghui, stepping onto the land of City J, seemed very excited. "Even though the schools in City M are good, I really do miss those rascals."

Chiang Xiao gave a slight smile. With Yu Hang and Xi Minghui’s personalities, they must have quite a few friends.

It was only after getting to know the two of them that she realized not all children from wealthy families were prodigal sons.

Upon exiting the train station, Xi Minghui walked ahead and immediately spotted his dad, rushing over and waving his hand while shouting loudly, "Hey! Father dear, I’m over here! We’re back!"

Xi Guoyou looked over, not at him, but his gaze fell on Yu Hang and Chiang Xiao walking behind, and he was momentarily stunned.

He grabbed Xi Minghui by the arm, pulling him close, and asked in a low voice, "Has your cousin started dating?"

So young, and he dares to bring her straight home?

Xi Minghui looked back at them and mimicked his father’s low tone, "Anyway, I think my cousin really likes her."

Xi Guoyou’s gaze suddenly became full of appraisal and judgment as he looked at Chiang Xiao.

Chiang Xiao stopped and nodded at him, "Mr. Xi, hello, my name is Chiang Xiao."

As she was still young, she thought the adults might not be used to her offering a handshake, so Chiang Xiao simply nodded in greeting.

However, this gesture had already surprised Xi Guoyou.

Mr. Xi?

None of his son’s classmates had ever called him Mr. Xi! Shouldn’t they be calling him Uncle Xi of some sort?

"Hello, Student Chiang Xiao," Xi Guoyou didn’t say much else, "Get in the car first."

In this era, Xi Guoyou’s car would be considered quite a good one, but to Chiang Xiao it still seemed very out of date and antique. She generally didn’t pay much attention to cars.

However, her calm and composed manner as she got into the car caught Xi Guoyou by surprise.

His car really wasn’t cheap, and most people would take a few more glances at it, but Chiang Xiao didn’t at all.

"Is Chiang Xiao classmates with Minghui?"

"Yes."

"Are you from City M?"

"Just from a remote little mountain village in City M," said Chiang Xiao.

Xi Guoyou drove himself, Xi Minghui sat in the passenger seat, and Yu Hang sat in the back with Chiang Xiao. As soon as they got in the car, Chiang Xiao wanted to ask about hotels in City J, but Xi Guoyou started making small talk with her instead.

From a small mountain village? Xi Guoyou really didn’t believe it.

"Do you have relatives in City J?"

"No."

Xi Guoyou glanced at his son and then asked, "Isn’t Master Chiang coming with you?" As soon as he asked this question, he suddenly realized something and was taken aback, pressing down on the brakes.

"Wait a minute!" He turned back in shock, looking at Chiang Xiao, "Chiang? Chiang Xiao? Master Chiang? That painting couldn’t have been done by you, could it?"

Xi Minghui couldn’t suppress his laughter, "Dad, you’re only finding out now?"
