Power and Wealth

Chapter 1140: They are back!

Before noon.

Outside of the villa.

Xie Guoliang was stunned by what he saw. He could not believe his eyes and was unsure.

The beautiful woman nodded. “It’s me.”

Xie Guoliang asked again. “Are you Lizhen?!”

The beautiful woman replied excitedly. “Brother Guoliang! Don’t you recognize me? It’s only a year since we met, and you sent me to the airport when I left.”

“It’s you….” Xie Guoliang was speechless. “You….”

Xie Guojian shouted from the living room. “Who is it, Second Brother?”

Xie Guoliang turned and looked at him. “It’s Lizhen…. Lizhen is back!”

“What?!” Xie Guojian jumped to his feet. “Lizhen?! How is it possible?!”

Xie Guoliang stepped aside for Zhong Lizhen to enter. She saw Xie Guojian. “Guojian.”

Xie Guojian was stunned. “Lizhen?!”

Xie Guobang was also stunned. It’s Zhong Lizhen!

Isn’t Lizhen supposed to be trapped in Florida or killed? How can she appear here? How did she return? Zhong Lizhen’s appearance shocked everyone.

“Lizhen, you….” Xie Guojian stuttered.

Zhong Lizhen’s eyes were red. “I am not going anywhere again!”

Han Jing was the most shocked. She looked at Zhong Lizhen in a daze and did not even stand up.

Zhong Lizhen looked at Han Jing, tears rolling down her cheeks. “Sis….”

“Lizhen!” Han Jing rushed over and cried. “It’s you! Thank god!”

Zhong Lizhen hugged Han Jing. “Sorry to make you worry, Sis.”

The sisters hugged each other and cried.

Xie Guobang was the calmest among them. “Lizhen, where is Xiao Bing? You are back. Where is he?”

“Xiao Bing? Who is Xiao Bing? I don’t know him.” Zhong Lizhen asked.

Han Jing turned pale again. “Xiao Bing is not with you?! How is this possible? Is he….”

Someone knocked on the door when they were talking. The door was open, and a young man entered.

Zhong Lizhen turned and said. “Let me introduce. This is Xiao Dong. He had saved me from the research center. Thanks to him, I can return safely. Xiao Dong, this is my Sister and Brother-in-law. That is….”

Zhong Lizhen was still introducing everyone to Dong Xuebing when Han Jing gasped. “Xuebing!”

Dong Xuebing smiled awkwardly. “Mum, Dad, Eldest uncle, second uncle.”

Zhong Lizhen was stunned. “Mum? Why did you call my Sister Mum? You are….”

Dong Xuebing scratched his head and said embarrassedly. “I should address you as Aunt, and I did not have the opportunity to tell you this. Sorry.”

“Aunt?” Zhong Lizhen was confused. “Who is your wife?

Dong Xuebing replied. “Err…. I got married to Huilan last year.”

Zhong Lizhen took a deep breath and understood everything.

Han Jing let go of Zhong Lizhen and hugged Dong Xuebing. She stroked his head and cried. “You almost scared me to death!”

Dong Xuebing replied embarrassedly. “Sorry, Mum.”

Han Jing scolded. “Why didn’t you tell us you are going to Florida?”

“Huh? I don’t want you all to worry, and I am afraid Huilan will know. So….”

“You are making us worry more!”

“Sorry, Mum. I will not do it again.”

“It’s good to see you again.”

Han Jing always has a calm demeanor and looks gracious because she is the eldest Sister-in-law of the Xie family. Dong Xuebing had never seen her so excited before, let alone crying. He knows she is crying now because she cares for him.

Han Jing did not let go of Dong Xuebing. “My good boy…. Are you hurt? Let me see.”

Dong Xuebing laughed. “You should know about my combat power. No one can hurt me.”

“Good….” Han Jing was relieved. She wiped her tears. “You all…. Nearly scared me to death.”

Zhong Lizhen smiled wearily. “I was also nearly scared to death by Xiao Dong. I did not expect him to be Huilan’s husband.”

Han Jing held Zhong Lizhen’s hand. “You could not return in time for Huilan’s wedding last year and have not met Xiao Bing. He is capable.”

Zhong Lizhen replied. “I can tell.”

Dong Xuebing blicked and looked at Xie Guobang nervously. He did not feel pressured in front of Han Jing because she had a kind character. But Xie Guobang is different. He looked stern and seldom smiled. “Sorry, Dad.”

Dong Xuebing thought Xie Guobang would scold him, but he smiled. “It’s great to see you back safely.”

Dong Xuebing knew Xie Guobang was worried for him too.

Xie Guoliang suddenly remembered something. “Oh, call Senior Xie and Huilan first. Don’t let them worry.”

“Huh? Huilan knows I went overseas?” Dong Xuebing panicked. “Err…. My phone’s battery is flat and….”

“Here.” Han Jing gave Dong Xuebing her phone.

“Thanks, Mum.” Dong Xuebing took it and called Senior Xie.

Ring… ring… ring…. “Hello?”

“Grandpa, it’s me. Xuebing.”

“Xuebing?”

“Yes. I called to inform you that I am back.”

“How did you come back?”

“Err…. I sneaked into the plane’s cargo hold and just returned. Oh, Aunt Zhong has returned with me. We are fine. Don’t worry for us.”

“Are you trying to scare us to death?”

“Sorry, Grandpa.”

“Haha…. Alright. Come over and drink with me tomorrow. You are always making others worry for you. If I knew, I would object to your marriage with Huilan.”

“Ah… sorry….”

“Hurry and call Huilan to let her know.”

The line was cut, and Dong Xuebing called Xie Huilan immediately.

The line got through. “Hello, Huilan. It’s me.”

“……”

“Say something, Huilan. It’s me. Xuebing.”

“Aren’t you dead?”

“Sigh…. Who told you I am dead?”

“Where are you now?”

“At your parent’s place. Aunt Zhong is here too.”

“Who asked you to go to Florida? Didn’t I make myself clear?”

“Yes…. But you should know how tenacious I am. I am fine.”

“I will remember this!”

“Don’t be angry. I am fine. It’s like going on a vacation. It’s not a big deal.”

“50 US soldiers were killed in Florida, and you call that a vacation?”

“Huh? Sorry. Don’t be mad at me. I will apologize to you properly when I see you. Sorry for making you worry.”

“You are getting bolder, and don’t take my words seriously.”

“Of course not. It’s impossible. Your words are orders to me.”

“Stop spewing nonsense. I will return to Beijing tomorrow. Let’s talk then.”

They spoke over the phone briefly, mainly with Xie Huilan scolding him. Dong Xuebing could not retort. After hanging up, Dong Xuebing went to a guest room to call his mother. He did not tell her he went to Florida to rescue someone. After that, he called Qu Yunxuan, Geng Yuehua, Yu Meixia, and Xu Yan. It was fine for the others as they did not know what had happened. Xu Yan knew what happened. She heard of what happened from Zhang Longjuan, and he got a scolding from her as well.

Dong Xuebing got scolded by Xu Yan for a while and finally got to say something. “I’m sorry, Sister Xu. Err… I still got something on. Help me call Sis Zhang and tell her I have returned safely.”

Xu Yan replied helplessly. “You ah…. Fine!”

Dong Xuebing returned to the living room after making his phone calls.

The moment he stepped into the living room, the doorbell rang. Han Jing went to open the door.

Xie Ran, Xie Jing, and Xie Hao entered. Xie Hao wiped his tears and asked. “Has my Brother-in-law’s body been found?”

Xie Guoliang, Han Jing, and the rest were amused.

Xie Hao asked angrily. “Why are you all laughing? Brother-in-law is dead, and you all are still….”

Dong Xuebing closed the door and walked over. “Why are you cursing me? Can’t you say something good about me? Who is dead?”

Xie Hao almost fainted. “F**k! Brother-in-law?! How did you come back from the dead?”

Dong Xuebing is mad. “What do you mean by coming back from the dead? I did not die!”

Xie Ran and Xie Jing were shocked. “Brother-in-law, you….”

Dong Xuebing smiled. “Thank you, everyone. I am fine. The lockdown in Florida cannot stop me.”

Xie Hao burst out laughing. “Hahaha…. I knew it. My brother-in-law will not die!”

Xie Jing was speechless as she stared at Xie Hao. “Who is the one crying so loudly on our way here? You were the one who said he died.”

Xie Hao protested. “Don’t expose me like this, Second Sis.”

Everyone laughed.

“Aunt Zhong.”

“Hello, Aunt Zhong.”

“Hi. You all have grown up.”

Xie Jing, Xie Ran, and Xie Hao greeted Zhong Lizhen.

Everyone had returned safely.
