"You'll be traveling alone this time, so please be extra careful on the train. You tend to get sleepy when you get on. I've prepared some fruit for you; having something to eat might keep you from getting too drowsy. Be sure to pay attention to your stop. After you get on the train, I'll call my son and have him pick you up at the station. If anything happens on the way, just ask the train conductor."
Xie Wenyuan was still a little worried. He knew that Huang Meiling was an excellent researcher, but she had one problem: she wasn't very good at directions and would inevitably get lost whenever she went somewhere.
Huang Meiling was eager to return home, so she packed her things in advance and interrupted Xie Wenyuan's spellcasting.
“You’ve said these things several times already. I’m not going to some unfamiliar place. Even if I have a bad sense of direction, I can at least find my way home. I can just call the kids. I know the distance from the station to our house. The kids are too busy to bother them to pick me up.”
She was in such a hurry to go back this time that she didn't have time to bring Shuying a gift, and naturally she tried to save on all the formalities.
Xie Wenyuan had a sheepish smile on his face. Knowing that Huang Meiling usually hated being nagged, he checked her documents and luggage again before taking his bag and seeing her off.
When Huang Meiling applied to go out alone, her colleagues all thought that something had happened to Xie Zhiyan and Shu Ying. In particular, Huang Meiling's most precious daughter-in-law was her daughter-in-law, and she talked about her almost every day.
Seeing Huang Meiling rushing off, Ma Xu stopped in his tracks, eager to get to the cafeteria.
"Teacher Huang, I heard you took a day off. Did something happen at home? Do you need any help?"
Huang Meiling maintained a warm smile, and Xie Wenyuan waved his hand, "It's just some trivial matters at home, so please don't worry about it. If I ever need your help, I will definitely let you know."
Ma Xu nodded. "It's good that it's nothing serious. It looks like you need to catch a train. Hurry up and get there."
Huang Meiling politely thanked him, and the two hurriedly headed towards the station. Xie Wenyuan appeared calm on the surface, but in reality, he was sweating bullets.
He simply couldn't remain calm about this situation. Even though he couldn't show it on his face, the turmoil in his heart was about to overwhelm him.
"You must tell me the results. We didn't even have time to visit the child when we went back last time."
In truth, Xie Wenyuan was unsure. If she really was his biological daughter, he hadn't even met her yet. He was even a little nervous, wondering if his child would blame him for his dereliction of duty as a father.
“The paternity test results aren’t immediate either. The children will let us know as soon as they have news. Lao Xie, I know you’re nervous, but right now work comes first. We can’t let our work fall behind while I’m gone.”
Xie Wenyuan fixed her hair and checked the vehicle information. "Don't worry, everyone is united in the revolution now. You can go back. I've been thinking about calling the children, so it won't be too abrupt when we meet, and they can be mentally prepared."
Huang Meiling returned in the evening, so not many people would notice, thus avoiding being too conspicuous and preventing Xie Wanying from immediately noticing anything.
"Get in the car, and drive carefully."
