Due to her parents' unexpected passing, Gu Xinyan resolutely quit her job in the big city to take care of her blind grandmother and her little brother. She returned to her hometown and inherite...
Chapter 30 Going Home
As the propellers spun rapidly, the helicopter slowly rose and flew quickly towards Anshi.
Looking out the window, Gu Xinyan saw clusters of white clouds and could vaguely make out the city below.
After flying away from the city, there was a vast ocean, with blue skies and azure waters, dotted with starlight. I had no idea how long it would take to get home.
Commander Zhang, who was standing nearby, noticed that Gu Xinyan was staring outside and spoke up:
"Gu girl, it's still quite a distance to your house. By the way, hasn't 011 come back yet?"
"No, it left that day and hasn't come back yet. I guess it'll be back in the next few days!"
Gu Xinyan replied that after returning that day, 011 received a summons from the main system, saying that it was going back for a few days.
To everyone's surprise, it's been five days since it left, and today is the sixth day, and it still hasn't returned. I just don't know what the main system wants from this little system.
"Since you haven't returned, that's good. You can take a good rest and spend more time with the elders at home. Once 011 comes back, the next mission will probably begin soon." Upon hearing that 011 hadn't returned, Commander Zhang didn't say anything more but gave him some instructions.
Upon hearing this, Gu Xinyan quickly nodded, indicating that she understood. 011 had left in a hurry and the mission had not yet been assigned, so she could stay at home for a while until it returned.
Thinking of this, Gu Xinyan couldn't help but feel happy. After all, who doesn't like a holiday!
What's more, now that the shops in town are closed, she has more time to spend at home with her grandmother and younger brother. Her grandmother's cooking is delicious, and she learned her cooking skills from her grandmother.
Unfortunately, Grandma has never eaten since she cried herself blind. If there is a chance in the future, I wonder if I can find medicine to cure Grandma's eyes in another world.
Now her biggest wish is for her grandmother to be well and enjoy her old age. Although she was unexpectedly linked to 011, her life has undergone earth-shattering changes.
But she had a small heart; as long as her family was healthy and safe, that was enough. Even if there were dangers in unknown dimensions, she was willing to go, just to find a medicine that could restore her grandmother's sight.
Seeing that Gu Xinyan seemed lost in thought, Commander Zhang remained silent and instead looked at Lu Yunting, gesturing for him to say something.
After all, the two young people aren't that far apart in age, so they should have some common ground. After all, this old man can only talk about work-related matters, and he's afraid the young woman won't like to hear too much.
However, although his idea was good, he unfortunately signaled to the wrong person. Lu Yunting was like a wooden stake, his mouth was as if it were sealed shut, and he was even more wooden than the old man, remaining silent for a long time.
Commander Zhang was so anxious that he glared at the problem. Finally, he turned his head away and refused to look at the troublesome thing anymore. No wonder he couldn't find a wife.
"Gu girl, ask your grandma if she'd like to live on the island. Don't let the island fool you; the facilities are quite complete, it has everything you need."
There's no shortage of doctors, and their medical skills are top-notch. They can help your grandmother recover her health, and who knows, maybe she'll have the chance to regain her sight someday.
Furthermore, there are academicians from various fields on the island. Academician Li and his two companions will be coming over in a few days, and they can all mentor your younger brother.
If your grandma and brother came to the island, you wouldn't worry about them so much. With so many of us taking care of them, you'd feel much more at ease.
Commander Zhang patiently persuaded her, and those who had stayed behind in the village had also spoken to Grandma Gu.
However, the old lady refused to leave her home and insisted on waiting for her granddaughter to return, so he had no choice but to tell Gu Xinyan in advance.
He truly admires Gu Xinyan; she has the country on her mind, and the country will not let her down.
Although she hadn't undergone any special training, she completed her missions exceptionally well and was also incredibly filial. If he had such a granddaughter, he'd probably wake up laughing in his dreams.
It's a pity that there's only one son in the family. But the son is serving in the military on an island, and the fact that they chose this location actually allowed the grandfather and grandson to meet.
Gu Xinyan, whose thoughts were still wandering in outer space, lit up when she heard Commander Zhang's words. She had just been talking about her grandmother's eyes, and now she had some good news.
With so many good doctors on the island, even if Grandma's eyes can't be cured for now, they can help improve her health. And with so many capable people around, I believe her little crybaby brother can also change his habit of crying.
The main reason is that her grandmother and younger brother live on the island, and she can feel more at ease when she goes on missions in another world, otherwise she will always be worried about them.
After all, the people on the island are all sent by the government, so there's no need to worry about safety. If anything happens, she can just go out and resolve it. But if she lived in a village, she would be worried that if she had a headache or fever, there wouldn't even be a hospital. She would be worried about that while she was away.
Thinking this, he nodded and replied, "Commander Zhang, when I get home, I will ask Grandma. I will try my best to persuade her. If Grandma is willing to live on the island, that would be the best. But if she is not willing to go, I can go home to visit her from time to time."
Commander Zhang nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this. In his opinion, with Gu Yatou taking the lead, Grandma Gu would definitely compromise.
And with his grandson also on the island, wouldn't he have the advantage of being so close? Who knows when he'll be able to hold his chubby great-grandson?
His grandson was more eloquent and adept at handling situations than Lu Yunting. Lu Zhenyun, that old man, seemed quite adept at handling situations as well, especially when arguing with him. He could never win an argument with him. He never expected to raise such a talkative person. Thinking this, he couldn't help but glance at Lu Yunting beside him.
Lu Yunting: "........."
Lu Yunting was completely baffled. He was puzzled by Commander Zhang's gaze and wondered what the old man was imagining.
His grandfather had said that if you don't understand something, then don't worry about it. So he turned his head and, like Gu Xinyan, looked out the window.
Gu Xinyan, who was standing to the side, caught a glimpse of the little interaction between the two out of the corner of her eye and couldn't help but find it a little funny.
Sure enough, Captain Lu was as quiet as ever. But what she didn't know was that in that short time, Commander Zhang was secretly planning how to get his grandson to bring her back to his home.
As my helicopter flew, Anshi City drew closer and closer, and as we approached the village, the helicopter began to descend.
Looking at the familiar mountains below, Gu Xinyan couldn't help but feel excited.
Ahhh! Grandma, Dayang Village! I'm back!
