Zhang Lihua nodded slightly, but tears still rolled down her cheeks like beads from a broken string.
She understood that Song Jingwei was right, but the thought of parting from her beloved grandson and granddaughter caused her heart to ache as if cut by a knife.
However, she also knew that what Song Jingwei said was true. The two of them were still young and had room for development in their careers. They should not confine their lives to the trivialities of their small family so early.
On the way to the airport, Lin Chengyu and Song Ziqing had mixed feelings.
They were both full of expectations for the future and reluctant to leave their families.
The car slowly came to a stop. Lin Chengyu carried Xiao Chengcheng, and Song Ziqing held Xiao Yu'er's hand. The group walked into the waiting hall.
When it was time to board, Lin Chengyu and Song Ziqing turned around to look at the people who had come to see them off, and a tear flashed in their eyes.
They turned and walked into the plane, their steps firm and powerful, as if each step was on the road to happiness and hope, carrying their aspirations and expectations for the future, and resolutely flying towards a new journey.
On the plane, Lin Chengyu and Song Ziqing carefully searched for their seats, afraid of waking the sleeping children in their arms.
After everything was arranged, Xiao Chengcheng woke up. He opened his eyes wide with curiosity and looked around at this new and wonderful world.
Xiaoyu'er nestled quietly in her mother's warm embrace, sleeping soundly.
As the plane roared to life, it slowly took off, and Lin Chengyu and Song Ziqing's initial nervousness gradually subsided.
They sat side by side, gazing at the distant clouds through the plane window, a surge of boundless hope for the future welling up in their hearts.
After a long flight, several hours later, the plane finally landed smoothly on the runway of another city.
This airport was a transit airport. In the 1960s, there were no direct flights from Hong Kong to the United States and Europe. You had to transfer at the transit station to reach your destination.
After waiting for several hours, the group boarded the plane again and flew to New York.
After careful consideration, the couple decided to choose the same university that they felt a strong connection to – Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
This historic and renowned institution not only boasts world-class educational resources and an outstanding academic reputation, but also has a professional and authoritative art college, providing students with the highest quality art education and training environment.
Of course, in addition to its outstanding academic strength, the close proximity of Cambridge, where Harvard University is located, to the bustling metropolis of New York is also an important factor.
This will make transportation extremely convenient for Lin Chengyu, who plans to travel to New York for business activities in the future, laying a solid foundation for his career development.
One can imagine that in this metropolis full of opportunities and challenges, he will thrive and achieve great things.
This valuable learning experience will undoubtedly become an important cornerstone on his road to success.
The plane landed at New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport, and Lin Chengyu and Song Ziqing led the children out of the cabin.
They are very familiar with this city. They visited for a month last year. As soon as they stepped out of the airport and saw the familiar cars coming and going, the whole family felt a sense of security.
After leaving the airport, the group found several cars sent by the Song family's driver in the parking lot, and then drove straight back to their small villa in New York.
Along the way, they saw skyscrapers, bustling streets and crowds, and felt the vitality of this international metropolis.
Upon arriving at the villa, Song Ziqing saw Song Meiling standing at the gate of her villa from afar.
A feeling of warmth welled up in her heart, and she quickly pulled her children forward.
Upon approaching, Song Ziqing first hugged Song Meiling before saying, "Auntie, it's been a long time! I really didn't expect you to come all the way to our house to wait for us. How have you been lately? Is everything alright?"
Song Meiling smiled, gently shook her head, and said in a slightly playful tone, "Darling, I have a little suggestion. You can stop calling me 'Auntie' and just call me Soong."
I think I'm still quite young, and I don't want to be called old-fashioned.
I've been feeling quite well lately; I even went on a sea trip with some of my younger family members a while ago.
In fact, Song Meiling had long wanted these younger relatives to change how they addressed her, but back in China, her older siblings were all there, and she didn't want to spoil everyone's fun over such a small matter.
Now in the United States, only she and her younger brother Song Zi'an remain. Since Song Zi'an is the younger brother, he naturally has no say in her affairs as the older sister.
Therefore, she felt it was time to make this request.
“Okay, Soong.” Song Ziqing readily agreed and changed his mind.
Song Meiling nodded in satisfaction, then turned around gracefully, her gaze slowly falling on Lin Chengyu and the two children.
A gentle, warm smile appeared on her lips as she softly said, "Oh my, this must be Chengyu, and these two adorable little ones. They're so cute!"
Upon meeting this legendary woman, Lin Chengyu felt a surge of awe, but he remained polite and humble, replying with a smile, "Hello, Soong." His voice carried a hint of respect.
The two children were very well-behaved and sensible. They called out in unison in their childish voices, "Hello, Soong."
Clearly, they have learned to respect their elders from their parents and are able to use titles accurately.
The two little children were clever and quick-witted, and soon grasped Song Meiling's kindness and gentleness.
"Little Chengcheng, Little Yu'er, do you still remember me?"
Song Meiling smiled and squatted down to hug the two beautiful little babies. She really loved these twins.
“I remember, Mom has a picture of you, Soong,” Xiao Chengcheng replied directly.
Xiaoyu'er said sweetly, "Soong is also in Mommy's painting, it's very, very beautiful!"
They found the way she addressed them very interesting, so they walked up to her without any hesitation and looked up at the beautiful old lady with curiosity.
Song Meiling exudes a unique charm that makes people feel both noble and approachable.
Especially now, dressed in a gorgeous Republic-era cheongsam, she appears even more graceful, dignified, and elegant.
This traditional Chinese attire exudes an elegant beauty, deeply captivating the eyes of the two little children.
Their eyes shone with admiration and affection, as if they were captivated by Song Meiling's beauty.
