Chapter 402 Shuxin is coming back
"Shuxin is coming back? Does that mean she won't go back?" Lei Jingwu was a little surprised.
Yao Shula glanced at the fruit plate on the coffee table, and Lei Jingwu quickly and perceptively took it over.
After popping a piece of apple into her mouth, Yao Shula finally told Lei Jingwu what had happened.
"She'll stay in China for a little over a month after coming back, then she'll have to go back. She's on leave. Oh, Shuxin's professor recommended that she continue her doctoral studies in North America."
Shuxin said she would be able to come back permanently once she finished her PhD in North America.
She said she hadn't been back for a long time and was coming back before starting her doctoral studies. Her doctoral advisor was very strict, so it probably wouldn't be easy for her to come back and visit while she was doing her doctoral studies.
"Isn't that why I wanted to come back and see us? What? You have a problem with that?" Yao Shula glanced at Lei Jingwu.
Lei Jingwu quickly shook his head.
“That’s great! I’ll take you with me to pick up Shuxin that day. I’ll definitely be in Shanghai and promise to be a responsible driver,” Lei Jingwu immediately assured him.
Yao Shula hummed in agreement and continued eating the fruit that was offered to her.
"I have another question for you. If Shuli is going to Hong Kong, when will he be going? I'd like to prepare things for him." Yao Shula also put a piece of fruit into Lei Jingwu's mouth.
Lei Jingwu quickly chewed the fruit in his mouth and swallowed it.
"After the Lunar New Year, Hong Kong is also bustling before the Lunar New Year, and there are many things to do. If all the procedures are completed, it will probably be after the Lunar New Year."
However, if the old master of the Gu family personally makes the arrangements, the process on the other side will be faster.
What? Do you have any other ideas?
"Don't worry! There's still time. Changqin and I will take Shuli there, and we'll bring you along too! If you'd like," Lei Jingwu said with a smile.
Yao Shula mentally calculated the time.
You can leave after the New Year; that will definitely be enough time!
“Lei Jingwu, I want to take Shuli and Shuxin to Yun County for the Chinese New Year this year!” Yao Shula suddenly said.
Lei Jingwu...
"Going back to Yun County for the New Year? This year?" Lei Jingwu was a little surprised.
Yao Shula put another piece of fruit into Lei Jingwu's mouth before continuing to speak.
"Yes, I want to go back to Yun County for the Spring Festival this year. Although I often call Yun County, almost once a week, I know about my grandma, uncles, cousins and other relatives."
But being separated by a telephone line always left me with a slight sense of regret.
Grandma is getting old, my uncle and aunt are getting old too, and my cousins must be very busy. I just... wanted to see them.
When we were in Yun County, I wouldn't have been able to take such good care of the three little ones without them.
Shuxin later went abroad, and not only did my grandmother and the others not see her, but I also didn't see her for a long time.
Shuli is about to go to Hong Kong again. Although it's said to be a year-long internship there, nobody knows what will happen after a year.
I was thinking that since Shuxin was back and Shuli was still here, and everyone was still around, I would take the two of them back to visit.
"Let Grandma and the others see it, that way they'll feel at ease, don't you think?" Yao Shula looked at Lei Jingwu very seriously.
Lei Jingwu thought for a moment and nodded.
“You’re right! Let Grandma and the others see you, and they’ll feel more at ease.”
Bring Tiantian along too! If you go back and Tiantian doesn't come with you, who knows what kind of trouble that kid will cause!
Anyway, he'll have more opportunities to spend the Spring Festival in Shanghai in the future, so this time he'll come back to Yun County with you for the Spring Festival.
I'll talk to Grandpa.
"Also, I'll come with you, I'll drive!" Lei Jingwu said, expressing his thoughts.
Yao Shula glared at Lei Jingwu, "What business is it of yours if we go back home for the New Year!"
The reason I brought Tiantian along is because Grandma practically watched Tiantian grow up, and when you go back...
"I'm your boyfriend! Is there anything wrong with you taking your boyfriend home to visit your elders?"
Besides, hasn't Grandma always been worried about you finding a partner? If you take me back with you and say I'm your partner, Grandma and the others will definitely be happy, right?
Your affairs are the most important thing on Grandma's and Grandpa's minds!
"What? You think I'm not presentable?" Lei Jingwu narrowed his eyes.
Yao Shula snorted and stuffed the last piece of fruit from the fruit plate into her mouth.
"Okay! If you want to go, then go ahead. I also want to put Grandma at ease. When I talked to Grandma on the phone last time, I could tell that her voice had aged a lot."
"Having been away for the past two years... I still really miss my grandma and uncles."
“Okay! It’s settled then. Make a list of the gifts you want to bring back, and I’ll arrange it.” Lei Jingwu also made the decision.
Yao Shula pinched Lei Jingwu.
“I’ll arrange it myself! You forgot? Shuli deposited 500,000 yuan into my savings account, saying it was my allowance for next year.”
"The last thing I lack right now is money!"
Lei Jingwu...
He almost forgot that Yao Shula now has a lot of money, to the point where she can buy whatever she wants without even looking at the price.
"Okay! You can buy whatever you want first! If there's anything in high demand that you can't find, just tell me and I'll go buy it for you!"
Just give me a call if you need anything! Okay, I should head back now. Since I'm going back with you, there are still a lot of things to arrange.
Lei Jingwu stood up as he spoke.
Yao Shula also stood up and escorted Lei Jingwu to his doorstep.
"Drive carefully. It's gotten colder these past few days. Wear more layers when you go out. Don't prioritize style over warmth."
"Also, make sure you eat well!" Yao Shula instructed Lei Jingwu through the car window.
Lei Jingwu was a little uncomfortable with Yao Shula's sudden concern. After thinking for a moment, he stuck his head out of the car window.
"Yao Shula, why don't you just stay the same as before? I'm a little unaccustomed to you suddenly saying you care about me like this!"
Yao Shula...
"Go home now! It's so late and you're still out running around. Aren't you afraid your family will worry? I'm going home!" Yao Shula said and went home.
Lei Jingwu was thrilled!
Yao Shula is still more likable this way! Her sudden outburst of enthusiasm is a bit unusual.
...
Yao Shuli and Xiao Tiantian were overjoyed that Yao Shuxin was coming back.
The two immediately discussed how to pick him up from the airport upon hearing the news.
"Holding flowers in my hands, with a banner behind me and a big sign in hand, I welcome my second sister back to China!" Xiao Tiantian declared first.
“Yes! We must be moved to tears, we must hug our second sister and cry our hearts out, and it would be best if Brother Jingwu could film this scene.” Yao Shuli quickly chimed in.
Yao Shula glanced at the two of them and asked only one question.
What does your second sister most want to see?
