When Wang Qingshu and Xuan Cao came out after the meeting, it was already past closing time.
The secretary then seized the opportunity to relay the contents of the phone call she had received.
Wang Qingshu: "!!!"
Hearing the secretary's account, he felt as if struck by lightning.
"My wife went to Northeast China?"
He looked at his secretary with disbelief and said, "You mean my wife was lured away from the Xia Academy of Sciences to the Northwest by Old Gu?"
secretary:……
Seeing his expression of utter despair, she swallowed hard and said, "Yes, when Academician Ruan called, she said that her luggage was packed and she was leaving immediately."
Wang Qingshu: "!!!"
His wife called during the day.
It's almost dark now.
His wife must have already set off.
Wang Qingshu: "Waaah!"
He turned and pounced on Xuancao, resting his head on her shoulder. Menghu cried, "Daughter, your dad has run off with your godmother!"
"It was intentional! He definitely did it on purpose!"
"He's just jealous because I got such a smart and beautiful girl like you for free. He's resentful, so he lured your smart and beautiful godmother away! He clearly wants to trade one for one! Waaah!"
Daylily: "..."
Looking at Wang Qingshu, who was wailing and lamenting the passing of autumn, he mumbled, "That Father Wang..."
Wang Qingshu: "!!!"
He glared at her with his old eyes.
Even though he was heartbroken, he still corrected her, saying, "What do you mean, 'Wang Dad'? It sounds like calling someone a turtle. I told you to call me Wang Dad!"
Xuancao readily agreed, "Okay, Daddy Wang."
She looked at her father, Mr. Wang, and blinked, saying, "My father, Mr. Gu, wants a one-for-one exchange, so... can you disobey his orders?"
These words were spoken.
Wang Qingshu: "!!!"
His face twitched.
He said with great reluctance, "It seems impossible! That guy has the authority to act expediently, and all our departments have to cooperate with him."
Upon hearing this, Xuancao shrugged and spread her hands.
"Then that settles it?"
She said, "The situation is beyond our control. Please accept my condolences, Mr. Wang!"
Wang Qingshu: "!!!"
Who said daughters are always a warm and comforting presence?
His adopted daughter is definitely not considerate enough!
Wang Qingshu's sorrow flowed like a river.
This isn't a one-for-one exchange; it's clearly losing both a wife and a daughter!
Daylily: ...
Seeing that her husband was too sad, she kindly comforted him, "Dad Wang, think about it another way. Anyway, my godmother is busy with work. Even though she lives in Beijing, she rarely comes home for more than ten days or half a month."
"So, whether she goes to Northeast China or not doesn't seem to have much impact on our lives?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Qingshu remained silent.
She blinked.
“You’re right, my dear.”
His wife being transferred was a fact he couldn't change.
Fortunately...
My daughter is still alive.
The plan was to send money from both ends, but one end was left unfinished.
Thinking this way, Wang Qingshu finally felt a little more at ease, although it was a somewhat forced balance.
"Come on, honey, it's time to go home for dinner after work."
"Your grandma said she'll make you stewed pork tonight, and she'll make sure it's tender and flavorful!"
"..."
Daylily: "..."
Looking at her little hands, which had clearly gained weight and developed dimples, she nodded with a complicated expression.
To be honest, her father, Mr. Gu, really knows how to find her a husband.
