On the way back, Zhong Xinyi looked dejected. This time, she would not see her grandmother for another month.
My grandmother was frugal her whole life, so she put the money under her pillow.
Seeing the woman's downcast mood, Gu Shaokai took her hand and gently comforted her, "I'll bring you back next time I'm on vacation."
Zhong Xinyi looked up at the man's handsome profile and clearly felt the burning sensation on the back of his hand. She was reluctant to pull away.
"good."
Gu Shaokai realized that the little woman hadn't pushed him away, so he tightened his grip slightly. "Take a nap first, I'll wake you up when we get there."
Zhong Xinyi looked at the road ahead; they had already left the village.
Two hours later, Gu Shaokai drove his car to the entrance of the military region.
Zhong Xinyi slowly woke up.
Still half asleep, I asked, "Have we arrived yet?"
"arrive."
Zhong Xinyi patted her face to clear her mind. "Then I'll go downstairs first."
Just as she was about to open the car door, she turned to the man and said, "Drive carefully."
After saying that, he picked up his bag and got off the bus.
Gu Shaokai only drove away after the woman's figure disappeared around the corner.
He didn't rush back to the shop, but instead drove towards the old house.
Yu Shiya was tending to the vegetable garden in the yard when she saw her son's car drive in, and she quickly put down what she was doing.
He walked to the tap to wash his hands. "Xiao Kai, where have you been these past few days?"
My son has been away from the military base and the shop for the past few days; it's like he's vanished into thin air.
Gu Shaokai walked to the back of the car. "Mom, I went to the countryside these past few days and brought back some sweet potatoes for you and Dad."
When her son took the bright red sweet potato down, she exclaimed, "This sweet potato is so sweet and soft, it's perfect for making porridge."
"Who gave it to you? What are you doing in the countryside?"
My son usually doesn't bring anything home.
Gu Shaokai gulped down a glass of water. "I accompanied Xinyi home. This was given to me by her grandmother."
Yu Shiya immediately became interested, "You've met her family. What did they think of you?"
She automatically ignored the girl's rural background; in her view, as long as a person had good character, social status was unimportant.
Gu Shaokai put down his cup and hesitated for a moment.
"Is someone dissatisfied with you?"
That's not right. His son has always been good at winning the attention of his elders.
"Mom, her mother passed away a few years ago, her father remarried, and she now lives with her grandmother."
"I see." Chen Shufang twirled her fingers; the little girl's background was quite pitiful.
As the saying goes, if there's a stepmother, there's bound to be a stepfather, so the relationship with the father is probably not great either.
"Xiao Kai, try to bring her home next time so your mother can see her."
Yu Shiya believed herself to be a reasonable mother-in-law, and she had a feeling that she and the girl would definitely be able to develop a mother-daughter relationship.
Gu Shaokai said firmly, "Okay."
This time, he sensed a significant change in the woman's attitude towards him.
He grabbed his coat and stood up. "Mom, I have something to do at the shop. I need to go there right away."
Yu Shiya quickly replied, "Oh, okay, drive carefully."
"Um."

Li Family Old House
Su Jingjing planned to leave for her family home after dinner.
The two kids are starting school the day after tomorrow, and I plan to take them to the city to buy some things tomorrow.
Chen Shufang sighed, "With you all gone, the house will feel so empty again."
Seeing their grandmother sad, the two children quickly put down their chopsticks and said in unison, "Grandma, Yuanyuan will come back to play with you again this weekend."
"Grandma, if you miss us, I'll have Dad drive my sister and me back."
Looking at the two adorable little ones, Chen Shufang smiled with emotion, "Okay."
It must be said that Jingjing has raised her two children very well.
After dinner, Su Jingjing and her family of four returned to their residential compound.
Even though I haven't been back for a few days, the room is still spotless, all thanks to Ah Ting who cleans it every day.
After the two children finished their baths, they changed into cute pajamas and sat on the bed reading. Yuanyuan would occasionally ask her older brother questions, and An'an would patiently explain them to the little one.
Su Jingjing was instantly charmed.
Suddenly, the little one tugged at her hand and said sweetly, "Mommy, Yuanyuan wants to sleep with you."
Su Jingjing almost softened and agreed, but then she heard A Ting's voice behind her refusing.
“Yuanyuan, you’re too big for that. You can’t sleep with Mommy anymore.”
An'an, who was sitting quietly to the side, twitched her lips. Her father was always trying to fool his little sister.
Li Yuanyuan seemed to have grown a bit bolder. She tilted her head and asked in a soft, sweet voice, "Dad, you're an adult too, so why do you still sleep with Mom?"
The teacher said that children can sleep with their parents.
Li Hanting remained expressionless. "Because she is my wife, husband and wife are bound to sleep together."
At this point, Li Yuanyuan was baffled. What kind of logic was this?
Su Jingjing gave the man a coquettish look. Why are you saying these things to the child?
"Be a good girl and go to sleep with your brother. Tomorrow morning, get up early and go with Mom to buy school supplies."
"good."
Yay! I can go out with Mom again.
The little one said shyly, "Goodnight, Mom and Dad."
After saying that, she shyly closed her eyes.
An'an stared intently at her mother.
Goodnight, my love.
Su Jingjing gently kissed the two children's foreheads.
After the two children fell asleep, Su Jingjing tiptoed out and gently closed the door.
As soon as the door to the master bedroom next door opened, Ah Ting hugged her from behind, resting his head on her shoulder. Their behavior was intimate, but they remained silent.
Su Jingjing was so frightened that she froze, and when she came to her senses, her face immediately turned red.
"Ah, Ah Ting, let me go first."
Now, whenever the two are alone, Ah Ting likes to kiss and hug her, and she hasn't gotten used to it yet.
The man grabbed her shoulder and stared straight at her. Through his pupils, she saw her own flushed cheeks, and she nervously swallowed.
Suddenly, the man kissed her red lips, his large hands caressing her hair. The kiss was so tender and gentle, it sent shivers down her spine, and she was instantly captivated.
Suddenly, the man picked her up horizontally, and she instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck, leaning against his chest, as if she could hear his heartbeat.
Ah Ting gently placed her on the bed, gazing intently at her with a dark and unfathomable light in his eyes. Before she could speak, his lips pressed against hers.
The sudden kiss caught her off guard like a storm, as if the tenderness just moments before was an illusion. Her mind went blank, and she simply closed her eyes obediently. At that moment, she instinctively wanted to hold him and give herself to him completely.
In the end, it's impossible to tell who took the initiative.
As night fell outside and the temperature dropped, the temperature inside the room actually rose.
The room didn't return to peace until late at night.
In the last second of her sleep, Su Jingjing murmured with her eyes closed, "Remember to wake me up tomorrow."
Li Hanting brushed aside the stray hairs on his wife's forehead and said gently, "Okay."
Then he pulled her into a tight embrace and fell into a deep sleep.
