Bian Qihua and Wenrou were visiting this place for the first time. Looking at the beautiful Chengdu with its clear waters and lush mountains, they couldn't help but sigh.

Chengdu is so beautiful.

Thinking that their daughter had lived in this place since she was a child, they felt a little more at ease.

No wonder her daughter is so beautiful; it's true that water nourishes the body.

Lu Ting took Wenrou and Bian Qihua's luggage, carried it in his hands, and then led everyone out of the platform.

When the Rongcheng Military Region learned that Bian Qihua and Wen Rou, two important figures, were coming, they immediately dispatched special military vehicles to pick them up.

The two greeted each other and shook hands, and then the driver let them get into the car.

After getting into the car, the two asked Wenrou and Bian Qihua where they were going.

The two looked at Lu Ting, who said, "Please take us directly to the local station, thank you."

The guard nodded and said "okay," and then the military vehicle started driving.

I haven't seen Chengdu for almost a year, but it doesn't seem like much has changed here.

Bian Qihua and Wenrou looked at this beautiful place, but couldn't help but think of some unpleasant things.

It was here, because Rongcheng was relatively remote, that they were unable to track down Su Tingyuan's whereabouts.

This also caused him to miss the opportunity to see his daughter.

However, the two of them quickly came to terms with it.

Now that our daughter has been found, all of this can be made up for later.

Soon, Lu Ting and his group arrived at the bus station in a military vehicle.

After explaining the situation to the guard, the guard drove away with peace of mind.

Lu Ting was about to go upstairs to buy tickets when he suddenly noticed that his wife's expression was a little off.

He couldn't help but ask with concern, "Honey, what are you thinking about? What's wrong?"

Su Miaoyan pursed her lips, wanting to speak, but the words caught in her throat.

Finally, he spoke up, "It's alright."

But his expression clearly still carried a hint of hesitation.

Lu Ting could tell at a glance that his wife was hiding something from him.

He continued, "Honey, it's okay. Just say what you want to say, I'm listening."

After thinking for a moment, Su Miaoyan finally said, "I want to go back to the Su family for a visit."

Upon hearing this, both Wenrou and Bian Qihua turned their gazes to Su Miaoyan.

Wenrou didn't think much of it.

Instead, he asked with concern, "Can we still visit the Su family's place now?"

As far as she knew, all the capitalists in Chengdu had gone to the countryside.

The entire villa area where it is located has also been sealed off.

Lu Ting thought for a moment and said, "It probably won't work, but maybe we can apply to the higher-ups. How about this, after we get back to Rongcheng Township, we'll stay until the last day to come back."

By then, our application will have been approved, and after we finish watching it, we can take the bus back, and then take the train back to Yanjing.

Su Miaoyan thought about it and felt that this would indeed be more convenient. The approval process takes time, and the leave for visiting relatives is only for so many days, so she decided to go back to her hometown to visit relatives first.

After all, he had never met Lu Ting's parents or Lu Ting's siblings since they got married.

Su Miaoyan looked at Bian Qihua and Wenrou and asked, "Dad, Mom, what do you think of what Lu Ting said?"

Wenrou and Bian Qihua could be described as doting on Su Miao: "As long as you have your own ideas, we'll all follow your lead."

Su Miaoyan had a strange feeling in her heart, a feeling that she was truly pampered, a warm feeling. Although she knew it wasn't good, she couldn't help but feel happy.

She nodded and said, "Okay."

Lu Ting saw this scene, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and then went to the bus station to buy a few seat tickets.

The group boarded the bus together.

Before that, the group had bought some fruit and snacks at a nearby supply and marketing cooperative.

Carry it and put it into the bundle.

Once on board and the bus was full, it slowly drove forward and gradually left the city.

As the road went further, a landscape of green hills and clear waters, belonging to Chengdu, gradually came into view.

Such scenery makes one feel relaxed, and physical fatigue seems to be wiped away instantly.

Lu Ting stood beside Su Miaoyan, gazing at the scenery outside. Before she knew it, Su Miaoyan felt a little sleepy.

She rested her head on Lu Ting's body, and Lu Ting carefully took her hand and pulled her head tightly to his shoulder.

He said softly, "Honey, go to sleep. It's alright, I'm here."

Su Miaoyan also felt a great sense of security at this moment, and her heart felt warm. She said softly, "Okay."

She slowly closed her eyes.

The bus slowly made its way along the rough road.

The mountain road was quite bumpy, and the car often swayed.

Lu Ting stayed by Su Miaoyan's side the whole time, trying to keep her from being disturbed.

Several children were laughing and playing on the bus from time to time. Lu Ting looked over and whispered, "Could you please be a little quieter? This lady is sleeping."

Lu Ting was a soldier, and he naturally exuded a military aura. The child was frightened by his iron-blooded gaze and immediately stopped talking.

Bian Qihua and Wenrou both laughed when they saw this scene.

Xiao Lu really dotes on them like her own daughter. It seems that Xiao Su was quite good at judging people during their absence.

Little did they know that in her previous life, Su Miaoyan did not marry Lu Ting, but instead experienced the worst possible outcome they had imagined—being sent to the countryside, where she died tragically.

Upon hearing this, the child's mother quickly pulled the child over.

When they saw Lu Ting wearing a military green uniform, they couldn't help but feel a deep sense of respect.

He began to lecture, "Don't disturb this sister's sleep. And brother, they are soldiers who protect our country. They are very admirable. You should learn from them in the future, understand?"

In this era, everyone has great respect for soldiers.

The child nodded, seemingly understanding, though he didn't quite grasp the difference between right and wrong at that age. But with an adult's guidance, he would quickly learn to distinguish right from wrong.

The child's mother instructed her child to quickly apologize to the older boy and to stop fooling around in similar situations in the future.

The child was initially a little reluctant, but seeing how handsome Lu Ting and her sleeping older sister were, she took a step forward and said in her childish voice:

"Brother and sister, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have disturbed your sleep. Can you forgive me?"

The others in the car who witnessed this scene all found the child quite amusing.

Lu Ting never considered arguing with a child.

He nodded and said, "Okay, just be more careful next time, it's alright."

He just wanted his wife to get some rest and didn't want to be disturbed while she was sleeping soundly; he didn't mean anything else.

Perhaps the child's change in attitude is because he looks fierce?

The child's mother gently patted the child's head and praised, "Yes, you did a great job."

I'll see if I can update earlier tomorrow... The author is about to break down...
