Chen Xingling put down the big plate with a smile and introduced himself gracefully.
"You two, please take a seat. I am Gu Qi's wife, my last name is Chen. You have come from a long way, and I believe the bumpy journey must have been very tiring. It's early in the morning, and the family hasn't started cooking yet. If you two don't mind, you can have some noodles to fill your stomachs and keep your bodies warm."
The other party swallowed unconsciously when he smelled the aroma of the steaming noodles and thanked me repeatedly.
"Mrs. Gu, thank you for disturbing your sleep so early in the morning and for making noodles for us! Thank you! Thank you! Then we-we won't be polite!"
"To be honest, we took turns driving all night and we are already starving! You're welcome! Thank you!"
Chen Xingling hurriedly brought them each a bowl and handed them chopsticks.
"You are a guest, so don't be polite. You two, eat it while it's hot."
The two of them started eating with a huff and puff, both wolfing down the food.
At this time, Gu Qi hurried in carrying a large suitcase.
Chen Xingling pulled him to sit down and handed him the last bowl of noodles.
"It's very cold outside. Eat something hot before continuing on your journey."
Gu Qi was secretly surprised and raised his eyebrows when he saw that she had already cooked some delicious noodles to entertain the guests.
There was a knock on the door before dawn. Something urgent had suddenly happened at home. The old mother started crying out of worry, the two younger sisters were dazed and at a loss, and although the younger brother was calmer, he could only follow around and watch. Only his wife handled the situation calmly, composedly and in an orderly manner.
He thought that she would be worried about him with tears in her eyes, and was also worried that he would break his promise to her and that she would be angry. However, he did not expect that she would be so calm in the face of the situation, even a little calmer than him.
He looked at her with burning eyes, then introduced her in a gentle voice: "Captain, Xiao Liu, this is my love."
"Mm-hmm! My sister-in-law is so welcoming! The noodles she made are so delicious!"
"Master Gu, the noodles my sister-in-law makes are so smooth and fragrant! Her cooking skills are really amazing! You are so lucky!"
Gu Qi and You Rongyan smiled and started eating.
This noodle is totally different from what he usually eats!
It is fragrant, smooth and elastic. It is not as chewy as handmade noodles, but the taste is very rich and delicious.
He had been busy catching up with old classmates last night and had not eaten much. Now he was already starving, and the noodles were so delicious and tasty, so he devoured the whole bowl of noodles with gusto.
The deputy captain wiped the corner of Gu Qi's mouth with a handkerchief, then took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to Gu Qi with both hands.
"Master Gu, this is a sudden incident. We are sorry to bother you so much. I hope your family will understand. Before we came here, the captain prepared a small amount of money and asked me to pass it on so that you can quickly settle down at home and leave with us immediately. There are more than a hundred people on the ship and the Exploration Ship urgently need your help! Let's set off as soon as possible! Please, please!"
Gu Qi nodded slightly, took it, turned around and handed it to Chen Xingling.
"Xing'er, this is very urgent. I have to leave right away. You will have to take care of the family and the children. You have to take care of yourself and wait for me to come back."
"Xiao Huzi and I will go to Yucheng to wait for you." Chen Xingling whispered.
Gu Qi was secretly anxious when he heard this, and was about to object -
Chen Xingling asked with concern: "Have you brought everything? Did you bring your ID card? Did you bring all your personal documents?"
"I brought them all." Gu Qi replied.
Chen Xingling winked at him playfully and whispered, "If you're worried, I'll let Gu Yi take us there. The tickets have already been bought. Yucheng is my mother's hometown, so we won't have to worry about anything when we get there. Don't worry."
Gu Qi looked at her, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, but finally he held back.
"Then you have to be careful about everything."
Chen Xingling looked up at him with gentle eyes and nodded slightly.
Gu Qi looked at her deeply, turned around and said calmly: "You two, everything is ready, let's go now."
The deputy captain smiled and said, "Well! Let's do it without delay! Come on! Xiao Liu, hurry up! Help Master Gu unscrew the box! Quick!"
Xiao Liu bent forward to help, then ran to the front to drive.
Ying chased after him, crying softly.
Gu Yi supported his old mother and looked at Gu Qi reluctantly.
"...Brother! You have to be careful!"
Gu Qi got in the car and stuck his head out: "Don't worry about me. Mom, you'll take care of me. Ayi, you'll take care of the house."
He glanced past them and looked towards the gate - Chen Xingling was standing on the threshold, waving at him vigorously.
Gu Qi looked at her, his cold gaze frozen, unable to move away.
Chen Xingling met his eyes, his hands stopped unconsciously, and he quickly kissed him on the lips, then reached out to "give" him his hand.
Gu Qi was stunned and wanted to raise his hand unconsciously, but he didn't know how to express it.
At this time, the car has started!
The jeep moved forward slowly and quickly sped away. He only had time to press his slender white hands on the window glass, and then he could no longer see clearly.
The car disappeared in the hazy morning light and also disappeared from everyone's sight.
Gu Qi left early.
He has always been the backbone of this family. With his sudden departure, the family suddenly seemed to lose support and vitality and became quiet and deserted.
Xiao Huzi was the last person in the family to know the bad news, and he burst into tears after hearing it.
"Dad! I want Dad! Dad said three days - no! In two days he will take Mom and me to the south! He said! He lied! Mom said he would not leave us! Mom! Why did Dad disappear again?!"
It wasn't easy to wait for his father to finally come!
Dad was tall and handsome. Dad held him up high in his arms. Dad also took him to play in the water and take a bath together - but suddenly Dad was gone again!
The little guy couldn't accept it and cried with tears all over his face.
Chen Xingling hurriedly hugged him and coaxed him: "Dad has to help repair a big ship, so he can only take that ship to the south. We won't take the ship, let's take the train, it's faster than Dad!"
"Really?" Little Tiger didn't bother to wipe away his tears and asked sobbingly: "Mom, will we still take the train? Really?"
Chen Xingling nodded: "Mom promises you - we will set off on time the day after tomorrow!"
The little guy soon stopped crying, and started smiling with tears on his rosy cheeks.
"What about Dad? Will I ever see him again?"
"Yes!" Chen Xingling gently wiped his tears and promised with a smile: "We will live together every day in the future and see each other every day."
At this time, Ying turned around the fat boy and asked in surprise, "What? Hu Zi's mother, you are still going to Yucheng? The day after tomorrow? How are you going? Aqi is busy, so how are you and your son going?"
"Take the train." Chen Xingling answered firmly: "Even if Aqi is not here, I can still go south."
It is indeed not very convenient to take a child out, but Xiaohu is already three years old and can eat, drink and go to the toilet by himself. Moreover, she carries a supermarket space with her. She only needs to put her baby into the space and easily take Xiaohu to the car.
When they arrive in Yucheng, the brothers will come to the train station to pick them up, and no matter how many children there are, they can be easily handled.
Gu Yi was a little anxious, frowned and advised: "Sister-in-law, it's not safe for you and Xiao Huzi to go out alone. Why don't you wait until my brother is settled, and then come to pick you and your son up."
