Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle
Chapter 307 Suddenly, all grown up“Your father said you have talent in law, ” An Qinyan sighed. “It was just his method that caused the whole fight, not his intentions.”
“Mom, let it go. It’s been seven years, ” An Xiulan smiled. “I know you are sad that we left you behind but it was the only way back then. If you had come with me, I would have bawled at the airport asking you to take me with you.”
“Who can imagine Attorney An Xiulan is mommy’s girl, ” Gu Yanxi laughed.
An Xiulan only flashed him a big smile. It was an open secret that she had a mom complex. Her mom was someone she loved and cared for more than anyone else in this world.
The doorbell rang and she heard some voices. Her eyes widened and she looked at her mom and stepdad before running upstairs. She gave them the best puppy eyes to not disclose about her.
An Qinyan and Gu Yanxi furrowed their brows as they couldn’t understand why the girl ran from there. As they were still in confusion, two men came in. They stood up when they saw Han Qian followed by Han Zixin.
“Hello, Auntie and Uncle, “Han Zixin greeted them respectfully. They are two people he respected out of his heart. An Qinyan was like a mother figure in his life. She was someone who was always cheering up for him up. She was at his graduation day, and the first day of the job and sent heartfelt congratulations every time he got promoted.
“Ah Xin. Uncle Han. How are you?” An Qinyan was pleasantly surprised. She was so glad to see him here. The excitement of An Xiulan’s return had yet to fade when she saw him and became excited all over again. He was like her third son. They were very close to each other. When An Xiulan went away to college, he didn’t forget about her family. He was always in touch with them and this made her adore him even more.
“We moved back today, “Han Qian dropped the news. “My grandson got transferred and promoted to this city. I can’t be happier.”
They took seats in the living room and the Gu couple congratulated the boy who had turned into a charming man.
“We are so proud of you, “The Gu couple said. “If we knew you were coming back, we would have helped you with cleaning the house. It’s lunchtime and we just had lunch. Uncle Han. Ah Xin, please eat something first. You must have a long journey.”
The Han family politely refused to eat as they just had lunch too. The older generation began talking while Han Zixin’s eyes were on the stairs that lead upstairs. He didn’t know why but he couldn’t move his eyes from there. It had been so many years since he had been in this house. It had changed a lot but it still felt the same to him for some reason. It was the place where he spent more time than at his place.
“Do you mind if I look around?” Han Zixin asked.
“Please go ahead.”
Han Zixin opened the patio door and walked to the garden area. The swing was still maintained well and he sat on it like old times and began staring at the garden where they held parties, danced and sang with no care in the world. He looked at a particular balcony that was empty and smiled at the memory. Next to the balcony was the studio room which still had the glass wall and from across his balcony, he had teased a certain someone with delicious food so many times. He could not believe that it had been seven years. Why did it feel like it was just yesterday when they were playing and running around and today they suddenly grew up?
This feeling of suddenly being all grown up was something he couldn’t explain. It was sweet but it was bitter too. There was a peace in his heart that he had grown up but the regret of not enjoying his childhood too. Thankfully, his youth had some memories that he could cherish forever.
He sat there for a few minutes in peace and after a while, his phone chimed. A picture of a teenage girl and boy smiling silly at the camera while the fireflies were flying around was his wallpaper.
It was a message from the police station and he had to report to his duty tomorrow morning. Initially, he was thinking of settling in before joining duty but it seemed he couldn’t do that now. He had to look for an apartment near his office and help his grandfather settle in there.
He went inside to inform his grandfather to hire some people to settle him. “Grandpa, I got a message. I had to join the duty next morning.”
“This soon?” Han Qian furrowed his brow.
“Important case, “Han Zixin replied. The information was classified and he couldn’t tell anything about it.
“What about house hunting?” Han Qian asked. “Didn’t you say home is too far from your office?”
“I will think about this later, “Han Zixin said.
“Ah Xin, Gu Shangyan was selecting a house for himself. Our property manager showed him many apartments and houses, why don’t you have a look at them? I still have the catalogue with me. Maybe, it will be of some help to you, “An Qinyan suggested.
“Don’t say no, “Gu Yanxi insisted. “You are our family child. If it can save you time, then why not have a look at this?”
“I think you shouldn’t say no to help, “Han Qian added.
In the end, Han Zixin agreed. They sat together and selected a two-bedroom apartment near his office. It was only ten minutes away from his office and it matched his condition. He didn’t need to furnish the apartment as all he had to do was move in there.
“You can sign the contract with the property manager, “Gu Yanxi said. “He will help you contact the landlord.”
“You are not the landlord, “Han Zixin asked.
“No, “Gu Yanxi smiled mischievously. “You can meet the landlord later.”
“Thank you once again, “He thanked them.
