The canary of the reborn paranoid boss is so delicate

On the day Lin Xiao took Xu Yan back to her old home, Xu Yan knew why Lin Xiao had brought it up specifically.

Because there was an endless stream of people coming to congratulate the old man on his birthday. Although there was no grand event, it was quite lively with wealthy businessmen and celebrities coming and going.

As the head of the family, Lin Xiao naturally attracted much attention.

Those who came to congratulate Lin Jinxuan on his birthday were all those who were usually close to him.

They all knew each other well, and the housekeeper and the servants greeted the guests.

Lin Xiao also wanted to greet the elders among the guests. Xu Yan wanted to find a place to stay by herself, but Lin Xiao forcefully kept her by his side.

Therefore, anyone who comes to greet Lin Xiao can see Xu Yan beside him.

When others inevitably asked, Lin Xiao told them directly that this was his fiancée.

Although Xu Yan was caught off guard, she still greeted the guests with a decent smile.

Lin Jinxuan, who was not far away, looked at the two of them with gloomy expressions and didn't know what they were thinking.

"Mr. Lin, congratulations on getting such an iconic granddaughter-in-law." Others flattered Lin Jinxuan.

Lin Jinxuan calmly picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip before saying, "The child is ignorant and playing around. Please bear with me."

What he said was just short of directly denying that Xu Yan was his grandson-in-law.

Everyone was listening, and there was nothing unusual on their faces, but they all had their own plans in their hearts.

"Grandpa Lin, I wish you a happy birthday, may you be as blessed as the East China Sea, and live as long as the Southern Mountains."

"Isn't this the girl of the Chen family?" Lin Jinxuan said with a rare kind smile: "Aren't you studying abroad?"

Chen Ruowei said: "Yes, grandpa, isn't this your birthday? I specifically begged my grandpa to bring me to celebrate your birthday."

"Well, I haven't seen you in a few years. The little girl has grown up." Lin Jinxuan said.

Chen Ruowei smiled shyly: "Grandpa Lin, you are the only one who still treats me as a child."

"You have all grown up, and I am old." Lin Jinxuan said.

Several old men on the side quickly agreed: "Yes, we are all old, and now the world is dominated by young people. Look at your Lin Xiao, who is young and promising, and is better than his predecessors. Who doesn't envy you for having such a grandson? "

"I'm envious, I gave it to you." Lin Jinxuan said.

The old man smiled and said, "I don't need a grandson, but I do need a grandson-in-law, hahaha."

Chen Ruowei said coquettishly: "Grandpa, what are you talking about?"

"Then what do you think of our Lin Xiao?" Lin Jinxuan said.

The faces of the people around him changed when they heard what he said, but they quickly recovered.

But the surrounding air seemed a little solid.

"Grandpa Lin knows how to laugh at me. How am I worthy of Lin Xiao, and his girlfriend is still here." Chen Ruowei said with a look of loneliness on her face.

When everyone saw it, they already understood it without saying anything. With Lin Jinxuan's attitude, it seemed that the person chosen by Lin Xiao had not yet been recognized by him.

"Are you Xu Yan?"

Xu Yan looked at the cute little girl standing in front of her. Although she didn't recognize her, she didn't feel any malice in the girl's eyes, and nodded: "Well, hello."

The little girl looked about 20 years old and was about the same age as Xu Yan. Xu Yan greeted her and she responded with a smile: "My name is Xu Xiaoxiao. Nice to meet you."

"Well," Xu Yan felt that this little girl was too familiar.

Xu Xiaoxiao looked at Xu Yan and asked, "Do you really like Lin Xiao?"

Xu Yan raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "What do you want to say?"

Xu Xiaoxiao said: "Don't get me wrong, I'm just a little curious. After all, he is technically half of my cousin."

"Huh?" Xu Yan was confused.

Xu Xiaoxiao said: "Reintroduce yourself, my name is Xu Xiaoxiao, I am the daughter adopted by the Lin family."

Xu Yan was surprised. She had never heard Lin Xiao say that the Lin family had adopted a daughter.

However, Xu Yan asked: "Why do you say that Lin Xiao is your half-cousin?"

Xu Xiaoxiao said: "Because I was adopted by his third uncle, so I am half a cousin. I have been studying abroad. I just graduated from graduate school this year."

"Oh, that's it." Xu Yan said.

Xu Xiaoxiao nodded, then looked at Xu Yan and said, "I have been hearing about you and am quite curious about you."

"What about now?" Xu Yan asked.

Xu Xiaoxiao was about to speak when someone called her name: "Xiaoxiao."

Xu Yan and Xu Xiaoxiao heard the sound and looked over.

I saw Lin Xiao and a man coming side by side.

The man was slightly shorter than Lin Xiao, with a visual estimate of 1.85 meters.

Xu Yan stared at his face, a little surprised, because the man looked very similar to Lin Xiao.

However, there are people with completely different temperaments.

Lin Xiao was cold and arrogant, but that man felt like a spring breeze.

"Lin Xiao, long time no see." Xu Xiaoxiao greeted Lin Xiao.

However, Lin Xiao just glanced at her without any unnecessary reaction, and his eyes fell on Xu Yan.

But Xu Yan's eyes fell on the man, and she had already guessed the man's true identity.

As for Xu Xiaoxiao, she seems to have become accustomed to Lin Xiao's reaction.

Lin Xiao passed her directly and walked to Xu Yan's side.

"Lin Xiao, don't you want to introduce me to him?" said the man who looked very similar to Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao said to Xu Yan: "This is my third uncle."

Then he said to Lin Xun: "Xu Yan, my fiancée."

Lin Xun was not surprised by Lin Xiao's introduction to Xu Yan, but smiled and said, "You have such a discerning mind."

Xu Yan was stunned for a moment when she saw Lin Xun's smile.

Lin Xun now looks like he is in his early 30s, and he looks very similar to Lin Xiao.

When he smiled like this, Xu Yan imagined in her mind what Lin Xiao would look like with such an expression.

However, Lin Xiao's character was extremely restrained and calm, and Xu Yan had never seen such a smile on his face.

While she looked dumbfounded, Lin Xiao showed a dissatisfied look on his face, then took her hand and said to Lin Xun, "Let's leave first."

The two left, leaving Lin Xun standing there with a helpless smile.

Xu Xiaoxiao glanced at him, and the smile she had just faced Xu Yan on her face was no longer there.

She also turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Lin Xun: "Xiaoxiao, how long are you going to stay angry with me?"

Xu Xiaoxiao stopped, looked at Lin Xun, and said, "Angry? What are you talking about? You are an elder. How dare I be angry with you?"

"Xiaoxiao." Lin Xun frowned slightly and his voice became heavier.

Xu Xiaoxiao looked at him and said, "Why, how else should I call you? Brother, third uncle? Or do you want me to call you dad?"

Lin Xun took a breath and wanted to say something else. Xu Xiaoxiao no longer wanted to hear what he had to say and left directly.

Xu Yan was pulled by Lin Xiao and felt something was wrong with him, so she asked: "Lin Xiao, what's wrong with you?"

Lin Xiao stopped and looked back at her. Xu Yan looked confused, as if she really didn't know what was going on.

Lin Xiao took a deep breath and said, "Why do you keep staring at Uncle San?"

"Ah?" Xu Yan didn't react for a while. It took a while to understand what Lin Xiao meant. She was a little dumbfounded: "Lin Xiao, what are you thinking about?"

Lin Xiao's eyes averted. Although he knew it was impossible, he was still a little jealous.

Xu Yan raised her hands to hold Lin Xiao's face, making it impossible to avoid her gaze. The two looked at each other: "I look at him because he looks very similar to you. I was just thinking, if you smiled like him What it would be like.”

Xu Yan watched the awkwardness in Lin Xiao's eyes disappear before letting go. Said: "By the way, Xu Xiaoxiao said that she is the daughter adopted by your third uncle, but I think your third uncle is only in his early thirties. Xu Xiaoxiao must be in his twenties, right?"

Lin Xiao nodded: "They are only ten years apart."

Xu Yan said: "Then how to adopt?"

Lin Xiao said: "It's not considered adoption. Xu Xiaoxiao is the sister of Sanshu's classmate. His classmate died unexpectedly ten years ago, when Xu Xiaoxiao was fifteen years old. Her mother heard that her son was dead and couldn't bear the shock. Originally, He also had heart disease and died of a heart attack.

Xu Xiaoxiao had no other family members, so his third uncle went to the Xu family to pick up Xu Xiaoxiao, who was only fifteen years old. "

"Oh, that's it," Xu Yan finally got a rough idea.

-

Since it was not a birthday, there was no big feast, but there were quite a few people.

Lin Jinxuan's aura today is much kinder than when he first met Xu Yan.

After lunch, several old people of the same age as the birthday boy went to the study room to enjoy tea and appreciate the treasures.

Word by word, recalling the glorious past.

As he talked, he came to the elders today.

Among the juniors present, the most outstanding one was Lin Xiao.

If everyone wants to flatter you, it will come as soon as you open your mouth.

Although Lin Jinxuan didn't say much, you could see a little pride in his performance. After all, Lin Xiao was his proudest achievement in the Lin Group.

"Unlike our gangster, who is not even half as good as Lin Xiao." Chen Zhiwei said with a sigh.

Lin Jinxuan waited for him to finish and said, "I'm quite optimistic about your girl. Why, are you willing to be the granddaughter-in-law of our Lin family?"

"That's great." The old words came up again. This time, Chen Ruowei was not here, but Lin Xiao was.

Lin Xiao watched his grandfather's conversation coldly.

"Lin Xiao, did you hear everything we said?" Lin Xiao didn't speak, but Lin Jinxuan took the initiative to ask him.

Lin Xiao said: "I already have a fiancée."

"Bastard!" Lin Jinxuan tapped his crutch on the ground, eyes wide open: "Who agreed? You brought a shady woman home, and I didn't care about you. Lin Xiao, don't forget your last name?"

"Big brother, calm down. The child is young and has no sense of propriety. Don't get so angry that you get so angry." Chen Zhiwei said from the side.

Lin Xiao looked over, and Chen Zhiwei suddenly seemed to be frozen.

-

Xu Yan was sitting in the pavilion in the garden, with snacks and tea on the table.

Sitting next to her were Xu Xiaoxiao, Lin Xiao and Lin Xun, who had both gone to the study. Xu Yan and the ladies couldn't chat together, so they simply stayed away.

Xu Xiaoxiao said while drinking tea: "You're hiding here to cool off instead of going to socialize?"

Xu Yan asked back: "What's the entertainment?"

Xu Xiaoxiao said: "When you marry Lin Xiao, you will be Mrs. Lin. Don't you want to expand your network?"

Xu Yan chuckled softly: "You said it was in the future, but now I have no name and no status. I am not welcome."

"Without a name or identity? How could it be possible? Didn't Lin Xiao admit your identity by bringing you here today?" Xu Xiaoxiao said.
