Just as Ruan Ruan had told him, he had just driven his car to the corner of the residential compound when he saw Bai Sirui coming over with a flashlight looking for someone.
He drove up to him and said, "...Handsome, where are you going? Do you want me to give you a ride?" Seeing that he was frowning and didn't even look up when the car arrived, but just kept walking forward, Ruan Shaoke decided to tease him a little.
However, he forgot that, based on Bai Sirui's understanding of him, he would know it was him as soon as Bai Sirui opened his mouth.
So the moment he uttered his first word, he looked up at his beautiful wife, who was beaming with smiles, and his worries were put to rest.
"Why are you only coming back now?" He stepped forward and touched the face of the half-man sticking out of the car window.
"Grandpa's car was late today. We settled him in and came back, but it was still late. I'm sorry to have worried you."
"As long as you come back safely, that's all that matters. Train delays are beyond human control." As he spoke, he shone his flashlight around to make sure no one was there before approaching the person he had been thinking about for so long.
The two of them, one leaning against the car door and the other standing outside, kissed for an unknown amount of time.
When the two separated, they were both panting heavily.
“Baby, it’s been so long since I’ve touched you.” Bai Sirui held the beauty’s head with one hand, pressing his forehead against his own.
"What time is it? Why are you still thinking about this? Let me tell you, Grandpa is coming tomorrow. We've arranged to have dinner together at Ruan Ruan's place tonight. Afterwards, you and I will drive Grandpa back. Don't blame me for not telling you in advance. Grandpa's temper is such that he seems easier to talk to than Grandpa usually, but if he doesn't like someone, he really can't stand them. So, it'll be up to you to see how you behave."
The two see each other every day, and at most they can kiss when no one is around. As for anything else, that's not an option. First, the troupe is really busy right now, and second, they are currently sleeping in a dormitory, which is too inconvenient.
"So, should I prepare something for Grandpa tomorrow? It's our first meeting, I can't just leave it unprepared, can I?" Upon hearing that she was meeting him tomorrow, Bai Sirui's previous thoughts vanished, and all she could think about was what gift she could give to please him.
"You don't need to prepare anything. Grandpa is mainly coming here because of my little sister. He's just seeing you on the side. So you just need to be yourself in front of him. But Grandpa doesn't like glib people, you understand?"
When Bai Sirui trains, he usually performs quite well. However, when he encounters Ruan Ruan, the two of them are like needles clashing against wheat awns. They feel like something is missing if they don't exchange a few blows. They are used to it, but the old man is not. If he sees them tomorrow, it will definitely be considered bullying Ruan Ruan.
At that point, not only will Su's maternal grandfather be a handful, but even the two old men from the Ruan and Gu families will be enough to give him trouble.
Even the smallest crack that the old man managed to break through could be repaired perfectly in an instant.
"....(⊙﹏⊙), Well, you absolutely have to stop me tomorrow." He knew very well how bad his habits had become over the years. He was afraid that if he wasn't careful, he would end up fighting with Ruan Ruan. Oh dear, how could he have been so foolish as to provoke this troublemaker?
"Alright, get in the car quickly, it's already very late, if we don't go back soon, they'll be looking for us." He didn't want to see his worried face, he was really afraid of him. He could only secretly tell Ruan Ruan when he dropped her off at the factory tomorrow that as long as the two of them behaved themselves and didn't fight each other, everything would be fine.
When the two returned to the base, the new recruits were already snoring loudly.
The two entered their dormitory, where the others were quietly chatting. Upon seeing them return, they asked, "Why are you so late? Did something happen?"
"It's nothing, it's just that the train was delayed, I'm sorry to have worried you. I'll go wash up first, you can rest in the morning." After explaining, she picked up her washbasin and headed to the bathroom.
A few minutes later, the two returned after washing up.
Seeing that they were really alright, he closed his eyes and went to sleep.
The next day, Huo Haocheng returned from early morning training, brought breakfast for Ruan Ruan, woke her up, and then went back to the base. This morning, Ruan Shaoke went to pick him up; he was going to take over his position and train the new recruits.
After having breakfast and making some preparations, Ruan Ruan rode her bike to the factory to wait.
When the car arrived, it was around 10:30 in the morning. Looking at the time, Ruan Ruan had been waiting at the factory gate since 10:00. As soon as she saw the person, she immediately helped them down.
"Girl, your factory is pretty good." He had seen the factory from afar, and as he got closer, he saw people building houses on the open space not far away. He asked Ruan Shaoke and learned that the family housing and school he had heard about earlier had already started construction, and were even being built simultaneously.
"As long as it meets Grandpa's approval, that's good enough." Everyone knows how much profit this pharmaceutical factory brought them in just six months last year. And in less than a month since it started operating after the Lunar New Year this year, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Finance in Beijing have received orders from several countries.
Most of these orders came from their allied countries.
"By the way, girl, I heard from Shao Ke that the family housing and school you suggested before are already under construction, right? Is it convenient for me to go and take a look?" He had sensed something different in Shao Ke's tone just now, and he really wanted to see what was so special about building a family housing complex.
“Sure, Grandpa, come on, I’ll take you to see it. It’s been a while since I’ve been here.” She hadn’t come back since she gave them the plans last time. Even if her grandfather hadn’t said anything, she would have found a chance to come and see it. Mainly, she wanted to know how much had been built and whether it could be completed in six months.
"walk."
After that, the old man and the young man left, leaving Ruan Shaoke alone, bewildered in the wind. He hadn't even had a chance to say anything to Ruan Ruan yet.
"...Sigh." Watching her retreating figure, I thought, well, I can only go back first and have Huo Haocheng talk to her later!
