1970, A Bit Sweet

He Tiantian treated everyone around her with a grateful heart. However, reaching middle age, she discovered she had been living inside a full-bodied lie.

Returning to the year 1970, He Tianti...

Chapter 359 Refuge, Forty Kilometers

359

He doesn't care about money, fame, or fortune!

"The domestic political environment is tense, but please treat my mother, wife, and children well and don't make things difficult for them," Qi Shuliang pleaded. As long as nothing unexpected happens to his family, he has no worries.

Upon hearing this, Huo Yingjun solemnly said, "Before coming here, the Chairman had already thought of this issue and specifically instructed us that if your family members return to China for refuge, he can guarantee their safety."

Huo Yingjun believed that with these words, no one would bully Grandma Qi's family.

"That's good." Qi Shuliang was relieved. "If I die, after things calm down, please send my son and daughter to Hong Kong so they can receive a good education. Thank you."

“You’re a lucky person, and with so many of us protecting you, you’ll definitely be alright,” Huo Yingjun said. “If…if…if something really does happen, I will do as you said and send him to Hong Kong after things calm down!”

Qi Shuliang and Huo Yingjun were chatting in the office.

Anna passed by the study and overheard something, which frightened her so much that she turned pale.

She had thought of this before, but she didn't expect this day to come so soon!

what to do?

She left with the child, worried about her husband!

But she couldn't bear to let her child leave!

Anna was sullen, but in front of others, she pretended to be the same as always.

But how could her husband, who was so understanding of her feelings, not see through Anna's constant behavior?

That evening, Qi Shuliang told his wife about it, saying, "Anna, you must know about our situation."

“Darling, I…” Anna was surprised and uncertain, hesitant to speak.

Qi Shuliang gently tapped his wife's lips and said, "Listen to me, take the children and mother to China. I'll come pick you up after this is over..."

"But darling, what if something happens to you?" Anna worried that if she left, they would be separated by life and death.

Qi Shuliang smiled and said, "Things aren't as serious as you think, you don't need to worry about me."

“Darling, you know that when you lie, your hands clench tightly?” Anna smiled bitterly. “If you hadn’t lost control of the situation, why would you have sent us away? And to a politically undemocratic country no less!”

His wife was incredibly intelligent and immediately saw through Qi Shuliang's lie.

Qi Shuliang smiled wryly and said, "I'm sorry, darling, I didn't want to hide it from you, but apart from there, those people's influence can infiltrate other places, but they can't in China, so we'll go there first."

"And then what?" Anna was very worried about the current situation in China.

For a short time, it's a good place to avoid danger.

In the long run, this is not a good choice; the education of both the son and daughter will become a problem.

"I'll come pick you up once things have calmed down," Qi Shuliang said with a smile. "If... if it really doesn't work out, you can choose to go to Hong Kong or a European country once things have calmed down. I have assets and businesses in Swiss banks. As for the businesses here in the United States, I will handle them properly. If I can't inherit them, I'll just sell them off."

Before Qi Shuliang could finish speaking, Anna was already in tears.

"Don't cry, things haven't gotten to the worst yet." Qi Shuliang hugged his wife. "Don't worry so much, it wouldn't be good if your mother and children found out."

Anna lowered her voice and sobbed softly.

After a while, Anna calmed down and said, "I know, don't worry, I will take good care of my mother and child."

"That's good." Qi Shuliang kissed his beloved wife tenderly, as if there would be no other chance.

Qi Shuliang thought that no one in the family, except Anna, knew about this.

But He Tiantian is no ordinary person; she has the Snake King by her side.

When the Snake King found out, he naturally had to tell He Tiantian.

After hearing what the Snake King said, He Tiantian remembered what Qi Shuliang had been trying so hard to hide today, but she never expected it to be such a dangerous thing!

"Snake King, should we do anything about this?" He Tiantian asked. "But we're completely clueless about it, and even if we wanted to, we couldn't."

The Snake King lay on He Tiantian's big bed with his legs crossed.

Because the Snake King looks like a little kid, He Tiantian didn't treat it like an adult at all, so she didn't mind.

"It's not a matter of whether you want to get involved or not. If Grandma Qi doesn't leave, you'll have to get involved whether you want to or not," the Snake King said gloatingly, enjoying seeing He Tiantian's worried face.

"Yes!" He Tiantian could vaguely sense Qi Shuliang's restraint, so how could the clever Third Grandma Qi not notice?

Once Granny Qi realizes this, she certainly won't leave.

When the time comes, just as the Snake King said, we'll have to help even if we don't want to!

Seeing Qi Shuliang's patriotism, filial piety, and kindness towards her, He Tiantian decided to help him.

It's not that He Tiantian is meddling, but with the connection of Grandma Qi, Qi Shuliang is her uncle.

Since He Tiantian helped Qi Xiaoyan, Ye Xiaofan, and Qi Daniu, she can also help Qi Shuliang.

However, that depends on the Snake King's abilities!

"Hehe!" He Tiantian chuckled, "The Snake King..."

"I knew you'd do this," the Snake King said coldly. "You want me to take action, don't you?"

"Mmm!" He Tiantian nodded, eagerly pecking at rice like a chick pecking at rice.

The Snake King stretched out his chubby little legs and said lazily, "My legs are a little tired..."

He Tiantian understood the implied meaning and quickly stepped forward, clenching her little fists to massage the snake king's legs.

"How's the pressure? Does it feel good?" He Tiantian asked with a smile, her attitude exceptionally friendly.

"Put a little more force into it." The Snake King squinted. "Yes, yes, just like that!"

After massaging for a while, He Tiantian's arms got a little tired, and seeing that the Snake King still hadn't given up, she quickly asked, "Snake King, now that you feel better, shouldn't you tell us what to do?"

At this moment, the Snake King opened his big, round eyes, thought for a moment, and said, "My current search range can be expanded to a radius of forty kilometers. If anyone is hostile to you, I can know in advance. By the time they arrive, it will probably be ten or twenty minutes later, and I believe you will have found a solution."

Upon hearing this, He Tiantian exclaimed in surprise, "Snake King, you've leveled up?"

Previously, the Snake King's exploration range was less than 20 kilometers, but now it is 40 kilometers.

"Yes," the Snake King said proudly, "each upgrade increases exponentially!"

This was an unexpected delight upon arriving here.

Since they don't know the specific plans, they can only act according to the circumstances.

"Alright, Snake King, I'm at your service anytime," He Tiantian said with a smile. "The food's been pretty good lately, I feel like I have inexhaustible energy!" (To be continued.)
