So Shen Xingcan is actually their young master?!
Qin Su smiled and replied, "How was your morning?"
"I'm just a bystander, what could I possibly have trouble adjusting to? But Mom, let me tell you, Xie Linchuan's lounge only has one bed, it's so empty."
Qin Su complained, "You know his personality, he's pretty much like your dad, he has absolutely no taste in life. Don't go back with him after dinner, go with Mom."
Xie Linchuan, whose wife was stolen by his own mother and who was then subjected to forced contempt. "..."
Xie Qingshan, once again unwittingly implicated by his own son. "..."
Shen Xingcan naturally had no reason to refuse. "Okay."
Xie Linchuan slowly and deliberately, "No, I don't agree."
Qin Su glared at her son. " Cancan Can can go wherever he wants, and you're the one who disagrees? Who do you think you are, the one who disagrees?"
Xie Linchuan: " Shen Xingcan signed an eleven-day assistant contract with me, so he has to listen to me for these eleven days."
Qin Su said domineeringly, "What kind of ridiculous contract is this? We've breached it! I'll pay the penalty."
Shen Xingcan looked at Qin Su with teary eyes. "Mom is so good."
Xie Linchuan watched this scene of motherly love and filial piety and said calmly, "There's no penalty for breach of contract, but it will embarrass him greatly. If he doesn't keep his promise, I'll put that contract in all public places."
Shen Xingcan: "..."
" Xie Linchuan, you're not allowed to bully Xingcan."
Xie Linchuan remained unmoved by his mother's accusations. "He signed the contract, how did I bully him?"
Qin Su: "You really are... I really am... sigh, look at your good son."
Xie Qingshan: "..."
Is this my fault?
Shen Xingcan pretended to lean against Qin Su, saying, "Oh, Mom, don't blame my brother. It's all my fault. I signed the contract. Brother, Mom loves you too. Don't take it to heart."
Qin Su stroked Shen Xingcan's hair tenderly. "Don't be afraid of him, Mom will stand up for Cancan."
After a moment of silence, Xie Linchuan spoke, " Shen Xingcan."
"Um?"
Xie Linchuan: "You're not allowed to read any more junk stuff, especially those melodramatic novels about real and fake young masters."
Shen Xingcan: "..."
How did Xie Linchuan know that he learned it from there?
But that doesn't matter; he rebelled. "Hehehe, I'll watch, I'll watch."
Qin Su: "Exactly! What's wrong with Xingcan reading a few novels? Can't Xingcan have a hobby?"
Xie Linchuan: "..."
Forget it, I'll deal with Shen Xingcan after his mother is gone.
Soon, all the food was served.
Shen Xingcan considerately put a piece of meat on Xie Qingshan's and Qin Su's plates.
Qin Su and Xie Qingshan were clearly very pleased; the couple were both very happy.
Xie Linchuan indifferently, "Little sycophant."
Then I was met with three pairs of angry eyes.
Shen Xingcan picked up another stalk of celery and placed it in Xie Linchuan's bowl, saying in a pretentious manner, "Brother, you should eat too."
Xie Linchuan: "It must have been really difficult for you to choose celery, which I don't eat, from among the six dishes with such precision."
Shen Xingcan's beautiful peach blossom eyes widened in surprise. "Oh dear, I'm sorry, brother, I forgot you don't like celery. You eat this, you eat this."
He kept apologizing as he stuffed celery into Xie Linchuan's bowl.
Very bad and evil.
Qin Su laughed nonstop beside her.
The four of them got along naturally, and it was obvious at a glance that they had a very good relationship.
The interaction between these individuals caused quite a stir in various group chats.
Fresh and Juicy Honey Peach: Today I went to eat in Area A and ran into Xingcan, President Xie and Chairman Qin Su. You would never guess how Xingcan addressed Chairman Xie and Ms. Qin Su!
If you see me, please tell me to drink more water: What can I call you? I can't exactly call you grandpa and grandma, hahaha.
Encountering Rainbow Candy: she called out "Dad" and "Mom." I was there at the time, and I was completely stunned when I heard Xingcan call out like that.
Sweet Strawberry: Xingcan mentioned on the show that Ms. Qin Su is his godmother, so it's normal for him to call his godmother "Mom," right?
Fresh and Juicy Honey Peach @Sweet Strawberry: This is abnormal. Normally, people would call each other "uncle" or "aunt" or "godmother" or "godfather." This is way too intimate.
Flying Red Panda: Chairman Xie and his wife mentioned a long time ago that they have a younger son, so what's so surprising about that?
Fresh and Juicy Honey Peach: Everyone does know about this, but nobody thinks it's Shen Xingcan. And Shen Xingcan even calls them "Dad" and "Mom," so she won't need to change her address after marriage (Holy crap, did I just reveal something?).
After lunch, Shen Xingcan accompanied Qin Su and Xie Qingshan for a walk before returning to the science park with Xie Linchuan.
Whether it was Shen Xingcan's imagination or not, he felt that there were several times more employees they encountered when they returned than when they left.
If these people came specifically to see him, they didn't stop walking past him at all. But if they didn't come for him, Shen Xingcan could feel their gazes constantly on him.

"What do you think of my redesigned lounge?"
Shen Xingcan pulled Xie Linchuan through the door to the lounge.
After finishing his work, Xie Linchuan went to lunch with Shen Xingcan, so he only saw many people going in and out of his lounge, but he had no idea what kind of renovation Shen Xingcan had done to it.
The bare walls were adorned with colorful oil paintings, a few white woven cushions were added to the black leather sofa, and a vase containing pink tulips and several cute cartoon cups appeared on the small marble table.
Near the balcony, a pure white wool carpet had been laid out.
Two oddly shaped lamps appeared on the bare bedside table in the bedroom, and the previous black sheets and duvet cover were replaced with a warm yellow color that promotes sleep.
In addition, there were several bird-shaped throw pillows on the bed.
The bare bay window was covered with a long-haired blanket, and a small, pure white table was placed in the middle.
On the small table were several small, exquisite potted plants and a few books.
The wardrobe, which was originally only a third full, was now completely filled with Shen Xingcan's clothes. Shen Xingcan's colorful style and Xie Linchuan's cold and strict style were clearly distinct, yet strangely harmonious.
Shen Xingcan's belongings, like the man himself, always add countless colors to Xie Linchuan's otherwise unremarkable life.
