"Grandfather, I don't have time for blind dates. Please stop setting me up to your friends' grand daughters, alright?"
He's been pestering him for a while now and he had turned down a lot of blind dates because he's too busy but there are still some that he at least needs to show up which is already time-consuming in itself.
"If I don't do this you will surely follow the footsteps of you sister and will only get married later. I would not be pestering you if you at least have a girlfriend you know."
"Really, grandfather. That is something you don't need to worry about."
At this day and age, he knew that some who are of the sae age as him is are already working on settling down but as for him, he still cannot see himself doing that now."
"How can I not worry? I only have the two of you as my grand children and both of you are really focused at your careers. At this rate, I will really die without seeing my great grand children."
Obviously, it all comes down to this reason. "With how you are being energetic I doubt that you will die soon, grandfather. Furthermore, why are you telling me this? Isn't it better yo tell my sister since she's already married?"
He's really getting tired of these blind dates and he wants to end this for real. It's not like he's against having a girlfriend or getting married, it's just that during this time those things weren't even in his priorities
"Do you really want me to die, you brat?" of course even his grandfather is afraid of his sister. In their family no one is not afraid of her.
"That's gotta be your problem to solve, grandfather. If here is nothing else, I still have work to do let's just discuss this when I'm home."
"Just one more time then, this will definitely be the last one!"
"Grandfather!"
"I promise, If you properly attend this one then until your turn 25 I will not set you up with any dates anymore."
That means if he turned 25 and there is still no woman beside him, his grandfather will then continue these dates. He really just won't give up huh though that is still more than two years away from now.
If this deal could make his grandfather stay still from ding this thing then he might just play along.
"Regardless of the outcome?" he can just turn down the woman by explaining everything right?
"Regardless of the outcome."
"Then it's a deal, but you still have to inform me of the date ahead of time to avoid conflict with my schedule."
"Alright, you already agreed to this so you can't take it back anymore."
"I know, I know."
"Then I'll hang up, I'll find a suitable woman for you as to not waste this opportunity!"
Xi Chen has not yet said goodbye but the call was already cut. He stared at his phone with disbelief. Is he really that excited about it?
He could feel that his grandfather has become more laid back now that he was before, although he never gets angry at them they can see that he's really working hard for their sake. Their grandfather has already sacrificed a lot so it is only right for him to enjoy his life now.
"Young Master, Master Feng asked if he could have lunch with you." this is the first day his father will be reporting to the main office but since his office is not yet done with all the renovations he was placed in a temporary office for now.
Xi Chen looked at the stack of papers on his table which he had finished reviewing and he thought that it's fine to eat out since he had finished a lot of his paper works already.
"Then please inform father that we could eat at the restaurant near the company so that we don't need to travel anymore."
He may not be as busy as his sister but he at also has some loads of works to do on his own. On top of that he is also studying for his masteral, due to his circumstance he was allowed to study through taking the online courses he will always get straight A's for all his subjects.
"I understand, I will inform Master Feng immediately.
This is the ȧssistant that his sister chose for him he can say that he is really good at what he does just as expected from the person that his sister chose.
His sister was also 22 when she had Ms. Lee as her ȧssistant so he does not see any reason to refuse and he is also fine with his sister choosing the person who would work beside him because he felt that if it was his sister, it would never go wrong.
"Jing Mo."
"Yes, young master?" the ȧssistant was just about to walk out of the office when Xi Chen called out to him.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click <a href="#'s-wife-has-a-secret_14496266906619705/matured-xi-chen_51093072787862358">#'s-wife-has-a-secret_14496266906619705/matured-xi-chen_51093072787862358</a> for visiting.
"To whom does your loyalty lies?"
Jing Mo was a little bit startled at the suddenness of the question, "My loyalty will always be with you, young master."
He is only two years younger than him but he already looks steady on his feet and he is also good at speaking which is a good trait.
"It's good that you know, I just hope that you will not forget this. I don't have any reason to doubt you because my sister chose you and I trust her so don't do anything that will make me think twice about that."
He doesn't need a person who is only efficient, what he needs is a person who is also loyal. This person will be the person who will be the closest to him therefore it is inevitable that he will be exposed to a lot of confidential matters that's why it is important to know him while it is still early.
There is indeed a childish side in him but he knows when to be serious and when to be not.
"I will never do anything that will make you doubt me, young master."

"Master Feng, the young master is already waiting for you at the parking lot." his secretary reminded.
Today he will be having lunch with his son, he knows that he can't make up for all those years that he was not by their side but now that he's back he at least want to spend more time with them as long as opportunity arises.
His relationship with his son can't be considered distant but nit exactly close, to put it in simpler term their relationship was so-so but lately he felt that little by little he is starting to open up to him.
"Okay, thank you for reminding."
He didn't waste any more time and went down to the parking lot. The place hey will be having lunch is near but they still need to ride a car at least.
As soon as he went out of the lift he heard a honk of a car and of course it is none other than his son. The car stopped in front of him and he rode on the passenger's seat.
"How was your first day of work, father?" although he's been back for more than two weeks now this is actually his first day of working in the main office of Xi Empire again after a long time rather than nervous he actually felt happy that he's now a lot close to his children than before.
"It was fine since the nature of my work doesn't really fall far from what I have been doing up until now. It's just that there are still a lot of things to be sorted out, there are still some of my things that has yet to arrive."
Although he was practically everywhere before, he still set up a office in a certain country where he made as his temporary home for a while and some of his things from there has not yet been delivered.
"By the time that all your things are here, they would have finished the renovation of your new office.
That's right, because of his new position he will need his own office but they insisted with the renovation so he does not have any other choice but to stay in the temporary office they gave him.
"It would have been fine to let it stay like that, I'm okay with just changing the furniture."
"Ana Jie made me in charge of the renovation in your office so there is really nothing we could do, if you want to complain then tell her that which I know you won't be able to do." Xi Chen chuckled.
"Why didn't tell me that it was actually your sister who wanted the renovation, of course father would not complain at all."
His daughter is scary so complaining is not really an option.
