"Mom, we're back!" A little over an hour later, Jiang Chu returned to Tianzhou with countless gifts.
The entire territory of Tianbei Province has been liberated, and highways and some short-haul air routes have also been restored.
Jiang Chu drove back this time.
There is no Hummer in this world, but there are military off-road vehicles similar to the Hummer.
Jiang Chu's car was exceptionally large, capable of carrying seven or eight people and also able to hold various gifts.
But what Jiang's mother liked best were the girls who came out of the car.
However, after welcoming the girls into the house, Jiang's mother grabbed Jiang Chu's ear and scolded, "You brat, you're quite the ladies' man! How come you have another one?"
Jiang Chu grinned dejectedly, "Mom, let me explain!"
Jiang's mother laughed and said, "I don't want to hear it! I don't want to hear it!"
Jiang's father said from the side, "Don't make things difficult for Chu'er, come in quickly!"
Today is the day before the Spring Festival, and the Jiang family has gained five more girls.
Chen Weilin, Lin Han, Anita, and Xiang Ling'er.
Of course, Luo Xiaonan was also there; she had some special things to do today.
Jiang's mother was very happy and went into the kitchen to get things ready.
Jiang Chu arranged rooms for the girls and let them rest for a while before going to the living room with Luo Xiaonan.
When Jiang's father saw that only Jiang Chu and Luo Xiaonan came downstairs, he immediately understood what was going on.
In the Jiang family, women make the decisions on small matters, while men make the decisions on big matters.
However, nothing major ever happened to the Jiang family.
However, today, Jiang's father felt that something big was about to happen.
"Go ahead and say it," Jiang's father said directly.
"Dad, we might be going away for a few days this holiday," Jiang Chu said.
The father and son stared at each other for a moment, and Jiang Chu felt awkward.
"Let's be honest," Jiang's father said bluntly, glancing at his son.
“Dad, we’re going to the Ulin Empire to take Xiao An to find her sister,” Jiang Chu said.
Upon hearing this, Jiang's father fell into deep thought.
“Uncle, we’ll be honest with you, this trip might be dangerous,” Luo Xiaonan said. “But if we don’t go, Xiao An might never be able to reunite with her sister again.”
“If it’s about Xiao An, then let Chu’er go with her. You don’t need to go, Xiao Nan,” Jiang’s father said, surprising everyone.
“Dad…” Jiang Chu was stunned.
"Chu'er, this is a matter of principle." Father Jiang said bluntly, "If Xiao An's happiness is to be sacrificed at the cost of someone else's life, then I would rather that person be yourself. Xiao Nan will get married in the future, and you are not allowed to harm her before you two have a confirmed relationship."
This was something Jiang Chu hadn't expected.
At the same time, Jiang Chu did not expect his father to say that.
"Uncle, we've actually made all the arrangements perfectly. There's a possibility of danger, but that doesn't mean..."
Before Luo Xiaonan could finish speaking, Jiang's father shook his head. "Your father and I are brothers. I can't do anything to betray him. Xiaonan, you can't go. It's that simple."
"Uncle, I don't mind!" Luo Xiaonan bit her lip and said, "After all, I'm the one who's going to marry Jiang Chu in the future!"
Jiang Chu and his father were stunned when Luo Xiaonan said those words.
“Pumpkin, you…” Jiang Chu felt a surge of warmth in his heart.
Actually, Jiang's father is right.
This is about Anita.
It's only natural for Anita to be part of the Jiang-Chu gang.
Since Xiao An has already recognized Jiang's parents as her godparents, Jiang Chu is Anita's younger brother, and as a younger brother, he has an obligation to help his older sister.
But what about Luo Xiaonan?
Jiang Chu and Luo Xiaonan are neither lovers nor a couple. If they send someone else, what if something happens to them? How will Jiang Chu take responsibility?
Jiang Chu understood his father's meaning and nodded frankly, saying, "Dad, you're right. Pumpkin doesn't need to go. I'll go with Xiao An. Anyway, my plan doesn't require anyone else."
"That's right." Jiang's father looked at Luo Xiaonan and smiled kindly. "Xiaonan, you are my favorite, but you are also the person I least want to bully. You stay at home and wait for Chu'er and Xiao An to come home."
“Uncle, if we can’t persuade you, then we’ll try to talk to Auntie!” Luo Xiaonan said quickly, standing up immediately.
“We can’t get through to Auntie either.” Just then, the kitchen door opened, and Jiang’s mother said sternly from the doorway.
Jiang Chu's personality is similar to his mother's; he's a bit mischievous.
But in crucial moments, he still followed his mother's lead.
He adheres to principles when it comes to important matters.
"Auntie..." Luo Xiaonan hesitated, "Why do you say that too?"
“Xiao Nan, this is Chu’er’s own business,” Jiang Ma said. “Even if you were my daughter-in-law, I wouldn’t let you go.”
Hearing this, Luo Xiaonan's eyes welled up with tears, and she even felt a little aggrieved: "Auntie, you're treating me like an outsider, aren't you? How about I acknowledge you as my mom now?"
"That's not how it is."
Jiang's mother said sternly, "Do you think you're not my daughter? But a man has to be responsible for what he says and does!"
Since Jiang Chu has decided to help Xiao An, he must have a foolproof plan! A foolproof plan that won't implicate anyone else.
If that doesn't work, keep thinking until you come up with a perfect solution.
Their trip to the Ulin Empire was for tourism, and also to reunite Xiao An with her sister, not to send them to their deaths.
If he can't even do this much, then this reckless son is better off without!
Luo Xiaonan almost cried. She never expected that Jiang Ma, who was usually so gentle, would be so uncompromising today.
