"Hahaha……"
Seeing Zhao Jinxiang's mournful look, Gu Nianqing couldn't help but laugh. He knew his father was envious, but there was nothing he could do, since only he was able to time travel.
Gu Nianqing was laughing happily when he suddenly received a reproachful look from his father. He touched his nose, stopped laughing, and then said guiltily, "Father, don't be sad. After I get there, I will take more videos of you to watch. I can also ask you to write letters to me, and I can ask you to video call me at night so you can see him more often."
Gu Nianqing tried his best to comfort Zhao Jinxiang. He hoped his father could quickly forget his smugness.
Zhao Jinxiang sighed. He knew he couldn't get through this, and the only way he could video call Bai Li was through his nephew. Even if he couldn't get through, it was still much better than not being able to contact her at all before. At least he knew whether Bai Bai was doing well or not, he could see Bai Bai, and he could hear Bai Bai's voice. That was good enough. He couldn't be too greedy, Zhao Jinxiang comforted himself.
“Alright, then you must take good care of Father when you get there,” Zhao Jinxiang instructed with concern.
"Don't worry, Father, I will take good care of you and make sure you're healthy and plump," Gu Nianqing promised.
"Pfft..."
Bai Li couldn't help but chuckle when he heard Zhao Jinxiang and Gu Nianqing's conversation.
"I'm a celebrity, I can't be chubby and pale. Don't worry! Daddy will take good care of you."
Gu Nianqing was so focused on comforting Zhao Jinxiang that he forgot he had to make the video call through his father. It wasn't until he met his father's gaze that he sheepishly chuckled twice.
"Dad, I'll miss you and Mom too."
Gu Nianqing carefully moved to Gu Nanxun's side, then reached out and tugged at Gu Nanxun's hand, saying ingratiatingly.
"Stop trying to get close to her. Whether you can go or not depends on your mother. If she doesn't agree, you'd better stay here obediently!"
Gu Nanxun reached out and patted Gu Nianqing, then snorted coldly.
"Dad, can't you have some opinions? Mom has to make all the decisions. It's so tiring for her!"
Gu Nianqing secretly rolled his eyes, then muttered in dissatisfaction. It wasn't that he was afraid Lin Qing would disagree; he just felt that his father would spoil his fun.
"Nanxun, don't you want Nianqing to come over?"
Bai Li had been listening silently to the father and son's conversation, but finally couldn't help but interject, though his tone was apprehensive, as if he was afraid that Gu Nanxun would disagree.
[Ah... I can't take it anymore! Who is this little vixen on the other end?! She's making Brother Bai speak so cautiously! Who is this little vixen?! And she's even acting so arrogantly because of his favor! Ah... Brother Bai is such a wise and powerful man! How could he possibly be so easily swayed by beauty...]
Hearing Bai Li's cautious words, the assistant couldn't stand the provocation and roared inwardly. In his mind, Bai Li had always been a man of his word. When had he ever seen Brother Bai speak like this?
"Uncle Bai Li, don't overthink it. I didn't want to agree at first because I was worried that it would be easy for him to go but difficult to come back. Since he has promised that he can come and go as he pleases, then let him go if he wants to! I have no objection. After all, the child is grown up and has his own thoughts. I'm just worried that my wife will miss the child!"
In fact, Gu Nanxun knew better than anyone that Qingqing would definitely be reluctant to part with the child, but even if Qingqing was reluctant, she would still agree. He had always been someone who respected children's thoughts, and since this was Nianqing's own choice, Qingqing would agree no matter what.
Bai Li's heart, which had just settled down after hearing Gu Nanxun's words, jumped again. He had never met Lin Qing and did not know what kind of person Lin Qing was. He did not know if Gu Nanxun would agree, but he was sure that Lin Qing was like all mothers in the world, worried about his child and reluctant to part with his child. Thinking of this, Bai Li couldn't help but feel even more uneasy.
"Don't worry, Daddy. Mommy is a very good person. She will definitely agree."
Seeing Bai Li's worry, Gu Nianqing smiled and comforted her.
"Yes, Bai Bai, don't worry, Qing Qing is a very nice person, don't worry!"
Seeing Bai Li's worry, Zhao Jinxiang quickly comforted her and secretly made a decision in his heart: if his nephew's wife was unwilling, he would talk to her properly.
After hearing what Gu Nianqing and Zhao Jinxiang said, Bai Li felt a little relieved, but he couldn't truly relax until he saw Gu Nianqing. He could only hope that Nianqing's mother would agree.
Bai Li really wanted to see Gu Nianqing. He had been here for so many years, but he had never felt a sense of belonging. If it weren't for the fact that completing the mission would allow him to go back and support himself, he probably wouldn't have been able to keep going. Now that he heard that someone could come to his side, he felt like he had found a pillar of support and wished that person would come immediately.
"Alright, it's getting late. Nianqing, you should go back to sleep. Let your father and your father-in-law have a good chat!"
Gu Nanxun saw Gu Nianqing and wondered what he wanted to say, so he quickly spoke up.
"And what about you?"
Gu Nianqing asked curiously, "It seems like my father and dad can't video chat without my dad! Does he have to sit next to me and watch the whole time?"
"Me? I have this."
Gu Nanxun suddenly took out an eye mask and an earplug.
He put the earplugs in his ears, then put on the earmuffs and lay down on the sofa.
"Master, the virtual screen can be set to a distance of 4 meters or more."
Gu Nanxun had just closed his eyes when he heard the system's voice, so he immediately sat up from the sofa and took off his eye mask.
Zhao Jinxiang and Bai Li were about to say something intimate when they suddenly saw Gu Nanxun's actions. They stopped talking and looked at Gu Nanxun at the same time.
Seeing the way the two were looking at him, Gu Nanxun took off his earplugs and said to Bai Li and Zhao Jinxiang, "The system says the screen can be placed more than 4 meters away, so I want to go back to my bedroom to sleep and leave the screen outside for you."
Bai Li and Zhao Jinxiang's eyes lit up upon hearing this. Although Gu Nanxun was wearing an eye mask and earplugs, he was lying openly next to them, and they still felt a little restrained. But if Gu Nanxun returned to the bedroom, they would feel much more at ease.
"Then why doesn't Father sleep next to Dad and Mom's bedroom? That way, Father can lie down and chat with Dad."
Seeing this, Gu Nianqing, who hadn't left yet, chimed in.
"Alright, let's go! I'll go tidy up your room."
Gu Nanxun shook his head helplessly, then stood up and went upstairs first.
