I’ll Be the Male Lead’s Sister-in-Law - Chapter 582
Xie Yi also frowned, “So the situation developed this way. Then I suppose the child deserved the beating.”
In fact, Madam Yin was also a little surprised that the father and son duo didn’t have a cold standoff upon meeting. Xie Yi had also asked Xie Xuanchen the reasoning in a good tone instead of accusing him without asking any questions. This was a good start. Madam Yin said quickly, “I told you two to talk slowly and not quarrel as soon as you meet each other, didn’t I? Although Xuanchen is a bit of a handful, he is not a person who does not know right from wrong. He will not fight for no reason.”
Xie Yi sighed deeply when he heard his wife’s words. In his previous life, he was afraid of wasting Xie Xuanchen’s talent and wanted to make his son a prodigy, so he did not retain politeness to Xie Xuanchen and never had a good expression before him. Later, before he died, he realised that it was wrong to blame him blindly. After quarreling with him too much, he habitually had a cold expression every time they met. Back then, even if he wanted to sit down and talk with his son, he was simply not able to do it.
So this time, when Xie Yi heard the Sun family complain, he did not rush back to punish Xie Xuanchen and chose to ask the reasonings before any actions were taken. Sure enough, after Xie Yi inquired about it, he realised that he almost blamed Xie Xuanchen wrongly again.
Xie Yi thought of his previous attitude towards Xie Xuanchen and his heart was full of guilt.
Madam Yin asked, “The Sun family has gone too far, what should we do now?”
Xie Xuanchen replied leisurely, “I have already dealt with that kid, so I guess he won’t be brave enough to do it again.”
Madam Yin knew her son too well, which made her ask at this point, “What did you do to him?”
“Nothing, I just kicked him.” I just happened to have kicked him squarely at the heart.
Madam Yin knew that Xie Xuanchen’s kick would have almost killed the Young Master of the Sun family. She felt helpless, but also felt like she was going to laugh, “You…General, should we go to the Sun family to take a look?”
“No need for that,” Xie Yi didn’t take it to heart. He was a person who was reincarnated from the position of an Emperor, so he didn’t think his family needed to apologise to the Sun family at all. But since there was the matter of family reputation that they had to uphold, Xie Yi added, “Let’s send a gift to the Sun family tomorrow. After all, their Young Master is still injured and can’t get out of bed. During this period, Xie Xuanchen should not go out. Instead, just stay at home for two days so that we can give an explanation to the Sun family.”
Xie Xuanchen responded affirmatively. This punishment was not painful, which meant that it rounded up to not being a punishment, so he didn’t take it to heart at all. Madam Yin thought of Mu Mingtang and sighed, “We have to send a gift to Mingtang tomorrow to calm her down as well. I like this little girl very much. General, how about we adopt her as our adopted daughter? With the name of the Xie family, others will have to think carefully before bullying her in the future.”
Madam Yin felt that this method was getting progressively better as she talked about it more— she was almost crazy about wanting a daughter. Xie Yi didn’t care; after all, it was thanks to God’s grace that he could see his wife again. Naturally, a small issue like this could be left to her liking.
At this time, Xie Xuanchen suddenly retorted, “I don’t agree.”
Madam Yin didn’t expect Xie Xuanchen to disagree and asked in surprise, “Why? Don’t you get along well with her?”
Xie Xuanchen’s expression remained unchanged as he said slowly, “I think she isn’t suited to be my sister.”
