Chapter 541: Episode 540: 20 explosive updates

Zuo Qing hadn’t expected Xu Erhong to bring up this topic, and a different kind of emotion was stirring within her heart.

It was warm, as if enveloped by something.

It warmed her to the core.

She had no family members, only some relatives, but they all lived in Hai City and were not close to her.

In Zuo Qing’s eyes, she had always only considered Xu Wentian as her family and thought she only had this one family member.

After Xu Wentian and the old lady recognized each other, Zuo Qing, who loved anything associated with him, also began to regard the old lady as family.

But the Xu family members, she had never truly considered them her own family from the bottom of her heart.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to, but she didn’t feel a part of it, always feeling like an outsider.

But now, with just one simple gesture from Xu Erhong, Zuo Qing was actually feeling warmth.

She gazed dumbfounded at Xu Erhong, who had slicked his hair back in a style Zuo Qing really disliked.

Because she felt that people who dressed that way were usually showy and did it just to boast.

Yet, at this moment, Xu Erhong appeared exceptionally handsome in her eyes.

After being dumbfounded for quite a while, Zuo Qing suddenly laughed, took the initiative to walk over to Xu Erhong, and gave him a gentle hug, "Thank you, Erhong, I’ll come back to see you all when I have time."

"Mm, be good, and remember to bring back some local specialties," Xu Erhong said with a laugh, his grin so wide his eyes were no longer visible, hmm, more local specialties on the way.

Xu Wentian and the old lady exchanged a look, both revealing a loving smile in their eyes.

Initially, the old lady thought Zuo Qing was resentful toward Xu Sisi and thus didn’t like her very much, but as they spent more time together, she found that Zuo Qing was a very considerate and kind-hearted child with filial piety.

So in the old lady’s eyes, Zuo Qing had long been a member of her family.

If anyone dared to bully her, she would protect her just as she would protect Xu Niannian and Xu Sisi.

Xu Niannian and Xu Sisi also smiled along.

Xu Niannian was relieved that Yang Cuihua and Xu Dawei hadn’t come to see her off because she would have definitely struggled to leave.

In the past, she wasn’t so prone to sentimentality, but ever since she got pregnant, for some reason, she couldn’t control her tears, and they would flow uncontrollably.

Seeing Xu Erhong standing outside the car, waving at them and watching them enter the station, Xu Niannian’s eyes turned red.

Well, it’s not like they won’t see each other again, so why is she crying like this?

Xu Niannian, feeling embarrassed, wiped the corners of her eyes.

Upon turning her head, she found that everyone except Xu Sisi had red eyes.

Xu Sisi was still snickering, "Sister Niannian, let’s bet if Young Aunt Qingqing doesn’t send my dad local specialties, will he call and ask for them."

Xu Niannian laughed, "Forget it, let’s not bet, Uncle is definitely going to ask."

Hearing that, the well-behaved Zuo Qing seriously made a note to herself to send local specialties to Erhong when she got back.

The group entered the station.

Xu Niannian spotted a familiar face in the station.

This person was none other than Hu Yue.

"Hu Yue, what are you doing here?" Xu Niannian asked, "Did you just come back from Jingdu?"

"Ah, that’s not right, this is the entrance, the exit isn’t here, when did you arrive?"

Hu Yue solemnly greeted Xu Wentian and the old lady before seriously answering Xu Niannian, "I have been here for many days, waiting for you."

"Then why didn’t you come directly to find me?" Hu Yue had been to her home before and should know the way.

At this, Hu Yue’s face showed a hint of embarrassment.

"I lost my money and couldn’t afford the fare to your house."

Xu Niannian: "..."

Without even the fare, how had she survived these last few days?

However, seeing her still rosy-cheeked, it seemed she hadn’t suffered too much.

As for how Hu Yue had lived, she had done hard labor as a helper to earn her meal money, but since she needed to eat a lot each day, what she earned was not enough for her meals.

So she had been waiting here all this time, hoping to catch what she needed.

Hu Yue had sneaked into the train station, as at that time security wasn’t very strict about checking tickets.

Xu Niannian purposely bought her a ticket.

Xu Niannian, being beautiful and pregnant, attracted a lot of attention.

Everyone passing by would take a glance at her, with many even pretending to pass by just to have a look.

Xu Niannian was so embarrassed by all the attention.

Hu Yue immediately stepped forward to shield her.

During the ticket checking, which was somewhat crowded, Xu Niannian, with her big belly, carefully protected it with her hands, while Hu Yue was more direct, spreading her arms to protect Xu Niannian.

Her expression was very serious.

She kept a wary eye on the people around her as she was protecting the person her employer had paid her extra to ensure safety for.

When Jin Yu asked Hu Yue to come and pick up Xu Niannian, Hu Yue, upon learning that Xu Niannian was carrying twins, demanded extra payment, stating she had to protect three people.

Jin Yu didn’t hesitate to throw the money at her face, and Hu Yue gratefully caught it, even asking Jin Yu to throw more as she had thick skin that could take it.

Xu Niannian was safely escorted by her, and after a night’s journey, they arrived in Jingdu the following afternoon.

Uncle Guan had already known about Xu Wentian’s return today and had been waiting outside the station with a car early on.

So, as soon as the group got off the train, they got into the car Uncle Guan had driven.

The problem was, there were two extra people.

The backseat could only accommodate three people, and one more could sit in the front passenger seat, which made four seats in total.

But there were six of them.

Xu Sisi volunteered to ride a motorcycle back, as in those days, besides minibusses, motorbikes were the only other transportation available outside the train station.

As for taxis, don’t even think about them.
