Chapter 146: Su Mengxue became suspicious!
Su Mengxue nodded without hesitation and replied, "Yes, I will not marry anyone else but him."
Seeing her determination, Zhou Huizhen sighed deeply and said reluctantly, "My daughter, although I am extremely reluctant to leave you, after listening to you about your relationship with Gu Yunting, I feel that we cannot be so selfish as to keep you by our side."
She paused and added, "Especially since we've experienced what it's like when you're not around, I know what it's like to not be able to witness and accompany your child's growth. Your father and I should support you in going to the island to find Gu Yunting. That way, after the child is born, he or she can grow up happily with you by their side."
Su Mengxue saw tears welling up in Zhou Huizhen's eyes. She lowered her head and said with a guilty look on her face, "Mom, I'm sorry. You and my dad have been looking for me for so many years and finally got me back. Now I'm leaving you."
Zhou Huizhen held her hand, and after enduring again and again, she finally suppressed the tears that were about to burst out.
She smiled and said casually, "My daughter, you are not staying on the island and never coming back. When you come back, our family can be reunited. We have waited for you for so many years, and we can still afford to wait for a few years. Besides, our waiting for you now is different from the past. This time we are waiting with hope, so the days will not feel too difficult."
Su Mengxue knew that Zhou Huizhen said this because she was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable. She also felt uncomfortable. She bit her lips hard and then nodded heavily.
Zhou Huizhen looked at her and then reminded her, "My daughter, when you go to the island in the future, remember to write back often. As long as there is a chance to visit relatives in the future, we will go to the island to see you. Also, if you encounter troubles in the future, you are not allowed to keep them to yourself. Talk to Gu Yunting. If he can't solve it, remember to write to us as soon as possible. Your father and I can help you with ideas and give you some advice. If it doesn't work out, we can also help you out."
Su Mengxue knew that Zhou Huizhen was worried about her, so she nodded vigorously again and said, "Mom, don't worry, I'm not a child anymore. Besides, Gu Yunting is here, he will protect and take good care of me in everything."
Having said that, how could a mother really feel at ease, especially since she was going to an island, which was remote and difficult to travel to, with underdeveloped transportation, and the food, clothing, housing, and most importantly, medical conditions were far inferior to those in Jiangbei and Shanghai.
Zhou Huizhen's eyes were filled with worry. She emphasized again, "My daughter, when we get to the island, write back if you need anything. I'll also prepare some extra things for you when you go. In short, remember to write back if you encounter any problems. Don't try to handle them on your own."
Su Mengxue nodded and said, "Don't worry, Mom. Just be prepared to be troubled by me in the future."
"No problem, I'd love to."
After Zhou Huizhen gave her some more instructions, she said solemnly, "My daughter, you still have to promise me one thing. I know Gu Yunting is on the island and can't come back. You two can postpone your wedding until he comes back, but you must get the marriage certificate with him before you go to the island. That way, you and the baby in your belly can be officially married."
Zhou Huizhen didn't wait for her to answer and asked again, "My dear, didn't you say you wrote him a letter? What did he tell you in the letter?"
Su Mengxue saw Zhou Huizhen looking at her seriously. She was afraid that Zhou Huizhen would misunderstand Gu Yunting after she told the truth. Her throat rolled over and she said unnaturally, "He, he said the same thing."
Zhou Huizhen listened to her description and knew that Gu Yunting not only cared about her, but was also a responsible and good man. She nodded with a smile in her eyes and replied with satisfaction: "Good, at least he knows how to think about you. Your father and I are relieved."
Zhou Huizhen held her hand and talked for a long time until Lu Zhi knocked on the door and reminded them that Jiang Weilong was still waiting outside. Zhou Huizhen was reluctant to confirm again: "My daughter, when you go back, please tell the old craftsman in the store as soon as possible to finish the work and move back home as soon as possible. We need to have a good family reunion before you go to the island."
Hearing this, Lu Zhi was stunned for a moment, then looked at the two of them, and asked with confusion in his eyes: "Island, why do you want to go to the island?"
Su Mengxue slowly walked up to Lu Zhi and said with all her courage, "Dad, I'm going to the island to join the army."
It was the first time that Lu Zhi heard her call him dad. In his excitement, he thought of what she had just said and asked again, "My daughter, why did you go to the island to join the army?"
"Because of me,"
"Mengxue, can we go now?"
Before Su Mengxue could finish her words, Jiang Weilong appeared at the door and looked at her and asked.
Zhou Huizhen was the first to notice the subtle emotions in the air. She hurriedly looked at Lu Zhi and ordered, "It's getting late. Let them go back first. I'll talk to you later."
When Lu Zhi heard Zhou Huizhen say this, he realized something was wrong. He had never heard that Jiang Weilong was going to the island when he went to the Jiang family before, so the person they were talking about must not be him.
His eyes darkened and he replied, "Okay, I'll send them out right away."
"I'll go too." Zhou Huizhen said immediately.
Then they accompanied them all the way to the door, and only when the car started and they could no longer see it did they reluctantly go in.
Su Mengxue turned back to face Jiang Weilong only after she lost sight of Zhou Huizhen and Lu Zhi. As soon as she sat up straight, she heard Jiang Weilong say in a cold voice, "Did you say you were going to join the army?"
Su Mengxue nodded: "Yes, I did."
Jiang Weilong sneered, his attitude cold and stern with a hint of sarcasm: "But you haven't received the letter from him. Don't you think it's too early for you to say this now? Do you really believe that he won't change his mind?"
Su Mengxue heard the sarcasm and coldness in Jiang Weilong's words. She replied calmly, "He must have been delayed by something. The letter might arrive tomorrow. In any case, I believe he won't change his mind."
"What if you never hear from him? And you keep waiting?"
"Yes, I will wait." Su Mengxue replied without hesitation.
"Mengxue, why can't you believe that people's hearts can change? Why won't you just look at me?"
Su Mengxue frowned and said, "You always emphasize that people's hearts can change, but what about you? Don't you change? Jiang Weilong, aren't you being too subjective?"
Jiang Weilong was stunned for a moment, then blurted out, "In short, you will definitely find that I am the only one who will always be by your side. You won't be able to wait for Gu Yunting."
Jiang Weilong's words were so confident that Su Mengxue noticed something was going on when she was about to retort. She looked at Jiang Weilong and asked coldly, "Jiang Weilong, are you playing tricks on me and Gu Yunting? Is the address you gave me correct?"
