Chapter 2884 Leaving the Island [Edited]



The day we left the island was sunny and the weather was clear.

The blue sky and white clouds in the distance are like the most beautiful landscape painting.

Yu Lili and Director Zheng personally escorted Li Jinfeng and the others to the pier to leave the island.

Standing on the dock, Yu Lili looked at Meimei reluctantly.

"Meimei, when you have time, you must come to see me. I'll be waiting for you on the island!"

The two had only known each other for a few days, but in Yu Lili's heart, it felt like she had known Meimei for many years.

Meimei: "If you have time, you should go to the capital too. I'll take you to Quanjude for roast duck, Donglaishun for grilled lamb skewers, and then we can drink our capital's famous soy milk!"

Yu Lili regrets it now.

If she had studied hard like everyone else on the island, she would have been admitted to a university in the capital.

Then can she be with Meimei every day?

Meimei: "I'd also like to introduce you to my grandmother and my great aunt! Although they're not young anymore, they both have unique perspectives on beauty. Like my mother, they're both very beautiful people."

Speaking of Li Jinfeng, Yu Lili suddenly lowered her voice, "Meimei, tell me the truth, is she really your mother? Not your sister?"

Hearing this, Meimei chuckled, "What are you thinking? Of course it's my mother, absolutely real! But speaking of which, my mother has been very beautiful since I can remember!"

Some people's beauty only lasts for a dozen years.

But Meimei feels that her mother's beauty will bloom forever.

Yu Lili: "Does she have any skin care tips? If I were her age, in my thirties, and still looked this young, I'd be so happy!"

"Probably not! Maybe it's innate? I'm not sure!"

"Then please ask for me and write to me when the time comes."

"good!"

During the conversation, Li Jinfeng came over to inform Meimei that the boat was about to leave.

Meimei reluctantly boarded the boat. When the boat left, Yu Lili chased after her and shouted, "Meimei, you are my lifelong friend. You must come to see me..."

The sound became farther and farther away until it could no longer be seen.

After arriving at the shore by boat, Li Jinfeng and her friends took a bus to the airport and then flew back to the capital.

Two days later, they arrived in the capital.

Because of advance notice, Xia Weidong took the institute's car.

Xiao Chen also followed Shen Hui's instructions and went to the airport to pick up Li Jinfeng and Lu Jianguo.

Miao Hong was the first to come out.

The first thing Shen Hui did when he saw her was to ask about her two children.

"Where are my two grandsons?" Xia Weidong asked.

"Jianguo and Xiaobao are holding it!"

As soon as Miao Hong finished speaking, Lu Jianguo and Xiaobao stepped forward.

They each held a child. Lu Jianguo held the back of Duoduo's head with his hand, while Xiaobao took good care of Yueyue.

At this moment, the two children fell asleep.

But even if you close your eyes, you can still see how thin they are.

Xia Weidong's heart was broken.

These are his grandsons, two children who are only three years old. They should have been raised to be plump and fair, but now they look pale and thin.

"How much suffering must this child have endured to become like this?" Xia Weidong said in a trembling voice.

As he spoke, Xia Xiaojie at the back also stood up.

She trembled and called out to Xia Weidong, "Dad..."

Xia Weidong raised his head and looked at his daughter, whose face was covered with vicissitudes of life and whose back was bent a lot.

"Xiao Jie, how have you changed so much? How much have you suffered over the years? You silly girl, why didn't you tell me and your mother about such a big thing as getting married and having children? Do you know how worried we are about you?"

Xia Weidong did not blame her, but instead showed concern for Xia Xiaojie.

Xia Xiaojie couldn't hold back any longer, tears welled up in her eyes, and she hugged Xia Weidong.

"It's all over, everything is over! When you get back, take care of yourself first and don't think about anything else."

Xia Weidong spoke out to comfort Xia Xiaojie.

"Dad, I was wrong. I shouldn't have been so willful and shouldn't have disobeyed you and mom's arrangements..." Xia Xiaojie burst into tears.

Xia Weidong comforted her over and over again and told her that it was okay.

"As long as you come back and are safe, that's all your mother and I ask for in this lifetime!"

Miao Hong covered her mouth with her hands; she had cried before.

She didn't want to cry now.

When the father and daughter met, although their eyes were filled with tears, the stone in their hearts finally fell to the ground.

Several people got in the car and drove to the courtyard.

When they arrived at the courtyard, Xiao Chen took Xiao Bao and Jian Shu to their new home.

Li Jinfeng, Lu Jianguo and Meimei were all tired.

Li Jinfeng went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of noodles. The three of them ate and then went to their rooms to rest.

On Miao Hong's side, after Miao Hong told Xia Weidong everything, Xia Weidong clenched his fists.

"That damn man really deserves a beating! It's a pity that I wasn't there."

If anyone bullies his daughter, he will make sure she suffers.

"I slapped him twice. My hand hurt all night. I guess he was in a bad state too!" Miao Hong said.

Xia Weidong felt relieved when he heard it!

"But this matter isn't over yet. I still have to take Xiaojie back to the place where she used to work in the countryside. That bastard has signed the divorce papers. We have to show them to the team leader there and have him write a certificate to let them know that Xiaojie and that bastard are divorced."

Xia Weidong: "I'll go with you!"

Miao Hong: "You...you're not going to the research institute anymore?"

The place where Xia Xiaojie went to the countryside was a relatively remote mountainous area. It would take at least a month to get there by train, including the round trip.

Xia Weidong: "I don't want to work in the lab anymore. I want to quit and do clerical work, and go teach at a university."

Miao Hong was stunned. "Old Xia, are you confused? Do you know what you're saying? Didn't you say you want to contribute more to the country? Like Wei Min, fight to the end?"

Xia Weidong: "When I was young, I did have great ambitions. Now that I'm old, I find that enjoying my grandchildren and caring for my family is also good.

And I'm not giving up. I can train new people. With all my years of experience in the laboratory, I can train a few scientists even if I don't do scientific research myself!"

Although he felt regretful, Xia Weidong wanted to do something else now that he had two grandchildren.

Xia Xiaojie, who was standing by, was about to cry again. "Dad, please don't be like this. I will take good care of the child. You don't have to quit the institute to take care of the child."
