After a long while, Chen Bin finally said, "Fourth Brother, Fourth Sister-in-law, we'll definitely make it!" But his tone was uncertain, as if even he himself couldn't be sure.
"Alright, everyone, don't worry. Qingqing and the others will definitely be able to catch up. Even if they don't, it's okay. They can just take the exam again next year. They both have good grades, so even if they miss another year, they can still pass. We've made it through so many years, so one more year won't make a difference!"
Seeing the atmosphere was a bit heavy, Lu Xianghong comforted everyone, saying that she couldn't tell them that even if Qingqing and the others didn't have time to take the college entrance examination this time, they could take it again in half a year, and there was no need to wait a year.
"But what if I can't take the college entrance exam again next year?"
Xu Fengjiao said worriedly, "What if the college entrance examination can only be taken this year, and it won't be possible next year? What if Qingqing and the others miss this year's college entrance examination, and they can't take it next year? What if they are the only ones who leave Chaoyang Brigade, leaving only Qingqing and Gu Nanxun?"
No one could answer Xu Fengjiao's question, and no one knew how to answer it. The only person who knew how to answer was Lu Xianghong, but she couldn't answer it.
"Why……"
Lu Xianghong suddenly sighed. She knew everything, but she couldn't say anything. It was too agonizing. She reached out and patted Xu Fengjiao's shoulder without saying anything.
...
In the car, Lin Qing turned on the onboard computer and checked the route and estimated arrival time.
"Brother Nanxun, shall we go straight back?" Lin Qing asked.
"We'll go into the space when we're almost there, and go back tomorrow night!" Gu Nanxun said with a smile.
"That's true. If we go back too quickly, people with ulterior motives will become suspicious. After all, there aren't any cars that can get from Tibet to Heilongjiang Province in just a few hours these days."
After speaking, Lin Qing paused for a moment, then said worriedly, "But we came so quickly, will something happen to us?"
When I arrived, I was only focused on my own anxiety. Now that I think about it, it was only a few hours from receiving the news to arriving in Tibet. If someone were to investigate...
"Don't worry, Uncle has already made arrangements. Those who are with us are all his trusted confidants. Apart from his trusted confidants, no one knows when we arrived."
Gu Nanxun smiled, shook Lin Qing's hand, and then said.
"That's good...that's good...I thought we'd been exposed!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Qing patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
The two chatted in the car, sharing the fun stories from their trip and discussing the upcoming college entrance examination.
...
Several hours later, night fell, and the hovercar stopped near Heilongjiang Province. Lin Qing opened the car window, letting the cool night breeze in. She looked up at the starry sky, her heart filled with emotion.
"Brother Nanxun, look, the stars are so beautiful," Lin Qing said, pointing to the starry sky outside the window.
“Yes, it’s rare to see such a beautiful starry sky in modern times,” Gu Nanxun replied.
The two looked at the stars in the night sky for a while before entering the space.
As soon as the two entered the space, they saw Gu Nianqing looking at them with a mournful expression.
"What's wrong, Nianqing? Who upset you?"
Lin Qing reached out and pinched Gu Nianqing's cheek, then said with a smile.
What do you think?
Upon hearing this, Gu Nianqing's expression became even more sorrowful.
"Did Grandpa make you learn calligraphy again?"
Lin Qing guessed that two years ago, her uncle Zhao Jinxiang was transferred back to Beijing, and Gu Nianqing also returned to Beijing with him. Her uncle's house was next to the house that Zhao Xuan gave to Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun, so Gu Nianqing would go back to her grandparents' house to stay for a few days from time to time.
"No, that's not true. Although I don't like learning calligraphy, I haven't gotten angry about it yet."
"What's that because? Did your uncles tease you again?"
Lin Qing asked curiously.
"Is it possible that it's because of you, Mom and Dad?"
Lin Qing's eyes widened in surprise. "You can't wrong me and your dad. We haven't been into the space for several days."
Lin Qing felt more wronged than Dou E. She and Gu Nanxun hadn't entered the space for several days, so how could they have offended this kid?
"You all know you haven't been in the space for several days!"
Gu Nianqing looked at Lin Qing with a reproachful expression.
"Ahem...wasn't it because we couldn't enter the space underground before?"
Lin Qing said embarrassedly, "So my son missed me. Sigh! This child, he should just say it directly if he misses me. Why is he so embarrassed and beating around the bush?"
Thinking of this, Lin Qing couldn't help but smile. She reached out and pulled Gu Nianqing into her arms, then hugged her tightly.
"Hmph... You couldn't get in before, but you arrived a long time ago and were still looking at the stars outside. Didn't you know that my father and I have been waiting for you?"
Gu Nianqing said with a hint of resentment.
"Okay...okay...it's all Mom and Dad's fault this time. Next time we'll definitely come in earlier so Nianqing won't have to wait too long!"
Lin Qing hugged Gu Nianqing and shook her, saying ingratiatingly.
"Ahem... Actually, I'm fine with waiting a bit, but it's mainly my father who has work tomorrow! He can't wait too long!"
Gu Nianqing touched her nose somewhat embarrassedly, and then said awkwardly.
Why are you waiting for me and Nanxun?
Lin Qing asked curiously, "They know that you and Nanxun are outside watching the stars, so why are they waiting for me? Is there something wrong?"
"Of course we want to see the treasure! We want to know what's inside, but since you and Dad didn't come in, my father and I can't just touch your things."
Gu Nianqing explained, somewhat embarrassed.
"To see treasure? Didn't you wait for us because you missed us?"
Lin Qing asked in surprise.
"Miss you? Why would I miss you? We see each other every day, don't we? Even if you can't enter the space, my uncle and I can still see you!"
Gu Nianqing also looked surprised and said that he could see his parents every day, so what was there to think about?
Lin Qing stared at Gu Nianqing speechlessly for a long time. It seemed that she had been presumptuous and thought that this guy missed her!
“Brother Nanxun…”
Lin Qing turned around with a sad expression and hugged Gu Nanxun, then buried her face in Gu Nanxun's chest and refused to come out.
Gu Lanxun looked up and glared at Gu Nianqing, then reached out and grabbed Lin Qing, carrying her towards the room.
As they walked, they said, "What treasure are you looking for? We're not looking! Your mother is tired, let's go rest!"
Gu Nianqing looked at the two walking away, puzzled, and then said to Zhao Jinxiang with a wronged expression, "Fine, I won't look then, why are you being so fierce!"
Zhao Jinxiang sighed helplessly, reached out and rubbed Gu Nianqing's head. Why was this child so clueless! He really didn't know how her husband had managed to win her over back then.
