The moment the video call connected, Zhao Jinxiang's eyes were glued to the screen, his heart was racing, and his hands were trembling involuntarily.
Suddenly, Bai Li's face appeared on the screen. His expression changed from confusion to shock. He clearly did not expect to see Zhao Jinxiang in this so-called "trading plane".
"Jinxiang?! How is this possible?!" Bai Li's voice trembled slightly, and his eyes flashed with disbelief.
Zhao Jinxiang could no longer hold back his tears, which streamed down his cheeks. His voice choked with emotion, but was filled with feeling: "Bai Li, it's me, it really is me. We can finally meet again."
Tears welled up in Bai Li's eyes as he tried to calm himself, but his voice still trembled: "What happened? How did you get here? And what is this trading dimension?"
Gu Nanxun explained from the side, "Uncle Bai Li, the trading plane means that it can connect with different planes. You should know that our era is before yours. That is to say, we are making this video call at different points in time."
Upon hearing this, Bai Li's face showed a look of shock, followed by a look of understanding. Yes, he could see Jin Xiang, so they must be from Jin Xiang's era, and he himself had also traveled from that era.
"So you were in the 1950s?"
Bai Li asked Gu Nanxun.
"Yes and no, it's the 1970s now, this year is 1978."
Zhao Jinxiang explained that he understood the question, so he answered it without hesitation.
Bai Li nodded. Yes, 20 years have passed, and his Jinxiang has aged, but he's still so handsome! Bai Li smiled and then asked again.
"So who are they?"
After Bai Li finished speaking, he looked at Gu Nanxun and Gu Nianqing.
“Father, I am Gu Nianqing.”
When Gu Nianqing saw Bai Li asking her a question, she stepped forward and said happily.
Upon hearing this, Bai Li's face turned deathly pale. He couldn't believe it, but then asked Zhao Jinxiang with a knowing look, "Jinxiang, you're married?"
Upon hearing Bai Li's question, Zhao Jinxiang hurriedly explained, "No...no...we're not married. Nianqing is Nanxun's child. Nanxun is my sister's child, so he's our nephew."
Bai Li breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, then asked in confusion, "Then why do you call me 'father'? Shouldn't you be asking me 'uncle'?"
Seeing that Bai Li was no longer angry, Zhao Jinxiang breathed a sigh of relief. He continued to explain to Bai Li, "Strictly speaking, he should call him Uncle, but Nianqing said that he was our adopted son in our previous life, so he is used to calling us Father and Daddy. I also like Nianqing more, so I agreed."
Bai Li was stunned for a moment after hearing Zhao Jinxiang's words, then looked at Gu Nianqing with delight.
"Father!"
When Gu Nianqing saw Bai Li looking at her, she quickly stepped forward and called out sweetly.
"Hmm...good girl! Daddy will buy you a present tomorrow!"
Bai Li said happily.
Gu Nianqing nodded obediently beside him and said, "Thank you, Father!"
Gu Nanxun watched his son interact with the other person with a jealous look on his face. He couldn't help but think to himself, "That brat just knows how to act cute."
Seeing Gu Nanxun's expression, Bai Li quickly said, "Nanxun, I will also prepare gifts for you and your wife."
Bai Li said nervously, afraid that Gu Nanxun would be unhappy and would not allow Gu Nianqing to call him father anymore.
Seeing Bai Li's nervous expression, Gu Nanxun couldn't help but smile: "Uncle, don't worry, I don't mind."
Bai Li's nervousness shows that he values his son, and it's his son's choice. As a father, he can only support him. Although he and Qingqing might feel jealous, he wants the best for his child.
After Gu Nanxun finished speaking, he added, "My wife's name is Lin Qing. You should also have some friends with her."
Bai Li breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. He glanced at another profile picture on his friend list, which was of a young woman wearing a green military uniform and with two braids. She was particularly beautiful.
"Yes! Your wife is very beautiful and lovely."
Bai Li couldn't help but praise it.
Upon hearing this, Gu Nanxun couldn't help but smile and said happily, "Right? Isn't she cute! Qingqing is especially cute and kind."
Gu Nanxun joined in the praise.
Bai Li couldn't help but laugh upon hearing this; it was clear that the couple were very much in love.
"Bai Bai, where are you?"
Seeing his partner chatting so enthusiastically with Gu Nanxun, Zhao Jinxiang couldn't help but interrupt.
Bai Li blushed when he heard Zhao Jinxiang call him by his nickname. He suddenly remembered that he was on set and had to film a scene soon, so he couldn't help but call out to his assistant outside the door, "Xiao Li, come in for a moment!"
"Brother Bai, is there something you need?"
The assistant was a young man with a buzz cut. As soon as he came in, he asked Bai Li a question.
"Xiao Li, go ask the director for leave. Tell him I have a headache and I might not be able to film the rest of the scenes."
"Brother Bai, how are you? Are you alright?"
Upon hearing Bai Li say he had a headache, Xiao Li immediately said anxiously.
"It's alright, go ask the director for leave, and drive the car over directly after you're done."
Bai Li shook his head and said.
"Okay, Brother Bai, I'll go right away."
After saying that, Xiao Li ran out like a gust of wind.
"Bai Bai, why are you still busy so late?"
Hearing Bai Li and Xiao Li's conversation, Zhao Jinxiang couldn't help but feel sorry for them.
