The three assistants' eyes were filled with tears. They thanked Ling Ran and Zhou Xiang repeatedly and promised to live up to their benefactor's help.
The experimental subjects also said goodbye to Ling Ran and Zhou Xiang with tears in their eyes. In the past two days, they really got to know the people who would take over. They were from the national special team, the unit where Mr. Ling once served. Mr. Ling and Miss Zhou were their benefactors, great benefactors whom they could never repay in this lifetime.
Ge Xin, who sent them to the airport, saw the performance of these people and the stone in his heart finally dissipated. Ling Ran and Zhou Xiang’s three years of time were not wasted after all.
I found a relatively clean restaurant in the town closest to the airport, ordered the restaurant's signature dishes and a few special staple dishes, and had a pretty good meal.
After dinner, Ge Xin was about to leave, but Ling Ran stopped him. "What if you miss the last bus and end up walking in an unfamiliar place and something goes wrong? That would affect the captain's plan."
When Ge Xin heard this, he did not refuse and obediently found a hotel on this street to stay in.
Ling Ran and Zhou Xiang took Jiang Wei Zhong to the airport in a taxi.
Seeing the dazzling array of goods in the various shops in the terminal hall, Jiang Weizhong, who had been feeling uneasy, approached Ling Ran timidly, "Ling Ran, should I prepare gifts for the younger generation?"
"No need," Ling Ran waved his hand. This man definitely didn't have any money. "You're being rescued and coming back this time, not just visiting relatives. The adults and children at home won't care about these things."
"Oh, okay." Jiang Wei Zhong shrank back again. He was very nervous. All he knew about his family was what Ling Ran told him about his father. There were still many things he wanted to know, but no one was willing to tell him. He would wait to ask his eldest sister!
Zhou Xiang ignored him and dragged Ling Ran into the duty-free shop, where he bought various candies and toys for the children at home, health supplements for his parents, and a suitcase to pack these gifts.
Jiang Wei Zhong, who was following behind the two of them, was very embarrassed. He also wanted to buy it, but he had no money. An elder like him would not be expected by the younger generations, right?
Ling Ran explained everything to Jiang Weizhong, including luggage check-in, ticket checking and going through the turnstile.
Finally, they got on the plane. After experiencing Jiang Wei Zhong's clumsiness, Ling Ran had no choice but to sit with Jiang Wei Zhong and explain to him in detail the feeling during and after the plane takes off. Many people who take a plane for the first time make jokes, let alone Jiang Wei Zhong, who has been isolated from the world for 40 years?
Ling Ran, who was foresighted, quickly covered Jiang Wei Zhong's mouth when the plane took off, thus avoiding being treated like a monkey. They wanted to return home safely and low-key, and could not make any mistakes halfway.
Amid Ling Ran's nervousness and Jiang Wei Zhong's timidity, the plane finally landed at Shanghai Airport. As soon as they left the airport, Ling Ran and the other two were surrounded by several people.
"Boss, sister-in-law, you are finally back." Lu Zhaochong kept blinking, trying to blink back the tears in his eyes. Over the past three years, he really wanted to follow the captain to look for them, but the town needed him to guard it.
"Boss, sister-in-law." Lu Jin had tears in his eyes. Boss and sister-in-law were finally back, and he didn't have to worry about those naughty kids anymore.
Although the eldest brother told everyone to treat the three treasures harshly, the three treasures and Yuanyuan were taught martial arts by Lu Jing and Lu Ying, and they were good at fighting in groups. No one was willing to really teach them a lesson!
After being beaten, the group of children preferred to run after the three babies. They couldn't be stopped even if they were shouted at. They were almost worried to death.
Xia Fei and Tian Cheng stepped forward to take the suitcase from Ling Ran, their eyes reddening and their mouths grinning as they shouted, "Boss, sister-in-law."
Their eldest brother and sister-in-law are back, their backbone is back.
Ling Ran patted the shoulders of the four people respectively, "Okay, okay, let's go! Go back, you are all out, who is in charge at home?"
"Professor Chu asked us all to come here because he was worried that you might be injured."
"Go home quickly." Zhou Xiang was a little anxious. If the teacher thought so, did others think so too?
There were two seven-seater cars. Zhou Xiang got on the first one, and Ling Ran asked Tian Cheng to take Jiang Wei Zhong to the back one.
The sister-in-law's attitude also made Lu Zhaochong and the other three a little confused, but it was not easy to ask. They would know after returning.
Zhou Xiang took out his phone to make a call, thought for a moment, and asked Lu Zhaochong, who was driving, "Do my aunt and grandmother know?"
She and Ling Ran have been missing for more than three years, and her family certainly can't keep it a secret anymore. Given her mother's personality, she will definitely tell her aunt.
Lu Zhaochong nodded. "Old Lady Liu has been waiting in the market town for two years. She said that even if all she got was her eldest son's remains, she would still wait. She wanted to understand what happened back then."
Since Old Lady Liu was here, there was no need for her to make any more phone calls. She would meet everyone at once and send them all away.
My sister-in-law looked unhappy, so Lu Zhaochong didn't ask any more questions and just drove seriously.
Jiang Wei Zhong, who was arranged to sit alone in a car, became even more timid. This niece and her husband were from powerful families. Would he be beaten for what he had done?
Tian Cheng saw Jiang Weizhong's appearance in the rearview mirror and thought that he had suffered in the laboratory. Jiang Weizhong had lost a lot of weight recently and no longer looked as bloated and fat as before.
"Uncle, don't be afraid. No one will bully you anymore when you return to the market town."
Jiang Weizhong flinched and waved his hands repeatedly, "I, I, no one bullies me."
Tian Ben himself was not the one who could comfort others. He just wanted to return to the market town and hope that his uncle would recover after a while.
The car became quiet, and Jiang Wei Zhong could clearly hear his own heartbeat.
After several hours' drive, two seven-seater cars entered the town. As soon as they turned into the town's first street, the first car was surrounded by townspeople.
"Is Miss Zhou back?"
"Is Miss Zhou back?"
"Yes or no……"
"Yes or no……"
This is the question everyone asks.
It was already dark, the street lights were on, and dense snowflakes were falling, but they could not dampen the enthusiasm and excitement of the townspeople.
The market town seemed to be missing its soul without Miss Zhou. No matter how much effort the town put into reconstruction or how many benefits it offered, the market town was like a stagnant pool, lifeless.
Zhou Xiang had not expected the enthusiasm of the townspeople. Her heart, which had been hurt by Jiang Wei and upset by all the mess, finally healed.
She opened the car window and waved to the people outside, "I'm back, and I'm back in one piece."
The townspeople immediately burst into cheers and applause. Their backbone had returned, their spiritual pillar had returned.
Many people were still wiping their eyes, saying, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
Those who were close to the car just shook hands with the person who wanted to extend his hand last week, and then left. The people behind followed suit, and the crowd became crowded.
Lu Zhaochong didn't expect this kind of scene, the car couldn't even start.
Zhou Xiang might as well get off the car so that everyone can see it with their own eyes. Then everyone will feel relieved!
The real Zhou Xiang was standing in front of them, healthy and intact. The townspeople finally felt relieved, knowing that he was truly intact.
Ling Ran naturally got out of the car behind his wife, and Lu Jin also got out to chase after the crowd.
