Huo Xueshen mistakenly thought they were reluctant to part with the house. He said, "If we don't sell this house and leave it for you to live in, they will definitely bother you from time to time. After we sell the house, we can use the money to buy another house. I will ask someone to help me find out which houses are good, so you will have a place to live when you come back."
Fu Shen carefully considered his words, "We probably won't be coming back to Beicheng often in the future, so we don't need to buy a house there."
Huo Xueshen looked surprised: "If you're not coming back, where do you plan to go? You've been in the army all your life, but even the army has a retirement day. Where will your wife and children live then?"
Fu Shen gave him a deep look and remained silent.
Seeing that his son did not answer, Huo Xueshen turned his gaze to Su Yue.
Su Yue secretly twisted Fu Shen's waist gently with her hand, then smiled and said to Huo Xueshen, "Dad, Fu Shen said that in a few years, when his military rank is promoted, he will apply to work in the military in Shenzhen. He might buy a house there then."
Huo Xueshen stood there, stunned. Shenzhen was Tian Huanyan's hometown.
The son indeed favored his mother more.
Now that he's reached this age, his once shy and timid nature has changed considerably.
Since my son is going to his mother's hometown, I can shamelessly go and visit them once I'm no longer working at the research base.
However, before going, I should ask my son and daughter-in-law for their opinions. As for my grandson, he can't speak yet, so there's no need to ask.
So he tentatively asked, "You've all gone to Shenzhen. A few years later, my research will come to an end, and I plan to leave the research base. Can I come and find you?"
Fu Shen looked directly at him and suddenly asked, "Have you ever had feelings for my mother?"
In their relationship, he could only tell that his mother liked his father very much, but his father never directly addressed the issue.
If you say that my father didn't like it, he would agree to go out with my mother if she asked him to make up for his eighteenth birthday. After that incident, my father was worried that my mother would get pregnant. Before returning to China, he went to my mother's house every day. When he didn't see her, he wrote a letter and asked a neighbor to pass it on to my mother. He even wrote a letter to my maternal grandparents.
After returning to work in China, my father never missed a month of transferring money, as required by the note my mother wrote to him.
If you say your father likes it, you can't see anything special about it. Everything your father does seems more like he's fulfilling his responsibilities, without the slightest hint of ambiguity.
Huo Xueshen stared blankly at Fu Shen, unsure whether he liked Tian Huanyan or not.
During his studies abroad, a female classmate confessed her feelings to him with fervent eyes. At that time, he felt a strong sense of resistance for no reason, but he never felt this kind of rejection when facing Tian Huanyan.
During their last two weeks of travel together, she enthusiastically suggested all sorts of funny poses for photos, some of which were far beyond his usual conservative style, making him frown slightly and look embarrassed.
However, despite feeling helpless, he would still cooperate with her and let her pose as she pleased.
Fu Shen's expression was gentle. "I was just asking casually. It's okay if you don't want to answer. If you ever get tired of research or it's time for you to retire, Yueyue and I would be very happy to have you here."
Upon hearing this, Huo Xueshen's eyes flashed with delight. It was the best thing that he didn't need to answer.
Because he himself couldn't really understand what kind of complicated feelings he had for Tian Huanyan.
He spent most of his early life immersed in studying books and tackling research problems.
He neither bothered to investigate the complexities of romantic relationships between men and women, nor did he have the time to ponder them carefully.
When Grandma Yang and Grandpa Yang returned from grocery shopping, they saw the family sitting together, their faces beaming with relaxed and happy smiles, chatting and laughing. It seemed they had already made things clear.
Grandma Yang and Grandpa Yang exchanged a knowing glance, their faces beaming with satisfaction. Then, Grandpa Yang turned and walked briskly toward the kitchen, with Grandma Yang following closely behind.
Su Yue witnessed this scene. She picked up the wooden box and quickly went outside, saying sincerely, "Grandma, the wooden box you gave me is too precious. I can't accept it."
