Chapter 187 Back

After annoyed everyone, Zhao's mother closed the door, looked at the Zhao family, and couldn't help laughing.

Mrs. Zhao wiped away the tears of laughter and said, "Mom, the way you talk to Dad is really annoying. I think no one will come to our house for many days."

Mother Zhao put her hands on her hips and snorted, "It's better not to come. Let them talk about us behind our backs. If they come again, I will show off and make them jealous."

Father Zhao also echoed, "That's right, it's the family next door to Zhao Ergou. His son-in-law gave him a box of good cigarettes, and he showed off from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. It was really annoying."

"Let's see how he shows off in front of me from now on."

Brother Zhao came out of the main room holding Xiaomi. Hearing this, he smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, Dad, it's time to eat. We can show off later."

Everyone sat around the table to eat, and after the meal, Lin Jianyan and Zhao Dalong expressed their desire to leave the next day.

Mother Zhao was stunned, with disappointment flashing in her eyes, but she still forced herself to cheer up, "Yes, it's time to go back. I've been back for so many days, I guess you still have a lot of work to deal with there."

"I'll go help you pack up some things and bring back some local specialties."

Zhao Dalong quickly grabbed her hand and said, "Mom, no need. The weather is so hot. It will be ruined by the time we get back."

"Oh, that's right. Look at my brain." Mother Zhao was stunned for a moment, as if all her energy had been drained away. She was a little at a loss for a moment.

Zhao Dalong helped him sit down, smiled and comforted him, "Mom, don't be sad, the Chinese New Year is only a few months away. This year I will bring Ruonan and Nannan back to spend the New Year with you."

Mother Zhao was delighted. "Okay, okay, then we will build a house quickly this year and wait for you to come back for the New Year."

After dinner, Lin Jianyan went back to the village chief's house to rest.

The next morning, they packed their luggage early, and after breakfast, they gathered at the door of Zhao's house and reluctantly said goodbye to Zhao's mother and others.

The Zhao family came out to see him off. Zhao's mother held Zhao Dalong's hand and told him, "Be careful on the road."

Zhao Dalong was sitting in the car, leaning his head out of the window, and replied, "I know, Mom. We'll be able to see each other again in a few months, very soon."

Mother Zhao wiped away the tears from her eyes reluctantly, "Hey, mom is waiting for you."

Zhao Dalong: "Dad, Mom, brother, sister-in-law, we are leaving, you can go back now, don't see us off."

"Okay, be careful on the road."

Zhao Dalong started the car and drove away slowly. In the rearview mirror, the figures of the Zhao family became smaller and smaller.

When the car was no longer in sight, Brother Zhao held Mother Zhao's shoulders and said, "Okay, Mom, go back. Don't be sad. Dalong will be back with his wife and daughter in a few months. We will definitely have a happy reunion this year."

Mother Zhao sighed, smiled and nodded, "You're right, our family must clean up this time."

After driving for a whole day, the car finally arrived at the hotel in Beijing at nearly midnight. Qin Wu knew the news and was waiting at the door early.

Seeing Lin Jianyan coming back, she strode forward. There were so many people around, so to avoid suspicion, she couldn't hug him. She could only put her arm around his shoulders and carried him into the hotel.

"Are you tired? Have you eaten? I'll ask the hotel to send you something to eat later."

Lin Jianyan shook his head lightly and said with a smile: "I just ate something on the way. I'm not too hungry, just a little tired." Qin Wu looked at him with pity and helped him into the elevator.

Arriving at the room, Qin Wu asked Lin Jinyan to sit on the sofa, fetched some hot water, soaked a towel, wrung it, and handed it to Lin Jinyan, "Wipe your face first, make yourself feel better."

Lin Jianyan took the towel and wiped his face. The heat relieved his fatigue a little.

Seeing that he was so tired, Qin Wu asked him to take a shower and rest quickly.

Lin Jianyan responded and dragged her tired body into the bathroom. After a while, the sound of splashing water could be heard from inside.

About twenty minutes later, Lin Jianyan came out wrapped in a bath towel. In the mist, his hair was slightly wet, his face was flushed from the bath, and his expression became more sleepy.

Qin Wu quickly blew dry his hair and let him lie down in the quilt.

"Good night." Lin Jianyan murmured, his voice filled with sleepiness.

"Good night, have a sweet dream." Qin Wu responded softly, kissed him on the forehead, turned off the light, lay down beside him quietly, and watched Lin Jianyan fall asleep in silence.

The next day, sunlight shone through the gaps in the curtains and gently fell on Lin Jinyan's face.

He woke up slowly, and found that Qin Wu was no longer beside him with sleepy eyes. Then he remembered that he must have gone to work early.

Lin Jianyan ruffled her messy hair, stood up with a yawn, and walked towards the bathroom in her slippers.

After washing up, he came to the living room and was about to call the front desk to order a meal when he saw a note on the coffee table.

The note was written by Qin Wu, with a strong and yet elegant handwriting: "Baby, I know you must be hungry when you wake up. I have ordered food with the front desk. When you wake up, give them a call and they will deliver it. Remember to eat well, don't be perfunctory. I miss you. Wait for me to come back."

Lin Jianyan's lips curled up unconsciously, and his heart was warm. He called the front desk, and soon, breakfast was delivered.

The exquisite plate includes golden fried eggs, crispy bacon, delicious pasta, fresh fruits, and a cup of steaming milk.

It's Western food, that's fine. After eating so many farm delicacies at Zhao's house, it would be nice to change the taste by eating some Western food.

After dinner, Lin Jianyan watched TV for a while, and the first thing he turned on was "Journey to the West". That's right, "Journey to the West" has been out for several years now, and there are few TV stations now, so it is basically played in a loop.

When he was a child, the TV station would always broadcast the show during the winter and summer vacations, and he and his grandfather would always watch the show on time. Now, alone in this hotel room, the familiar plot has a different taste.

Lin Jianyan picked up the coffee, took a sip, leaned lazily on the sofa, and watched with a smile. It is indeed a classic. Even though the definition of television is not very high now, the familiar music and familiar plot can still fascinate people.

After watching TV, Qin Wu just came back.

"How was your day?" Qin Wu said as he took off his coat and walked over to sit next to Lin Jianyan.

"It was good. I watched Journey to the West for a while."

Qin Wu smiled and reached out to gently pinch Lin Jinyan's cheek. "That's quite a coincidence. My work progressed smoothly today, and I wanted to come back quickly to accompany you."

Lin Jianyan fell on his knees and looked up at him, "When can we go back? I have nothing to do here, it's so boring."

Qin Wu: "We should be able to leave the day after tomorrow. We'll hand over the work in the next two days and then we'll go back."

"good."
