Chapter 483: Chapter 483 Departure

For a good while, An Hao felt like she was going to run out of breath. It was only then that Qin Jian finally let go of her. "Dare you talk nonsense again?"

"I dare not! I dare not!" An Hao quickly waved her hand, "You’re not allowed to tickle me anymore, it was so unbearable!"

The sound carried far into the night, making her want to laugh but not daring to.

She almost suffocated!

The young couple stopped their frolic and turned off the light, sinking into a deep sleep.

Downstairs, a smile crept onto Zhang Yun’s lips.

Indeed, they were so young!

With Qin Jian’s youthful vitality and An Hao being so endearing, he surely couldn’t restrain himself.

Now everything was alright, her grandson, it seems, had found his destiny.

...............

On Monday, it was time for Qin Jian to leave.

Farewells are always melancholic, and he was afraid his little wife wouldn’t be able to stop herself from embracing him and crying, so he didn’t dare to speak loudly since that morning.

An Hao knew he had a thousand miles to travel, and she was certainly reluctant to part with him.

She didn’t want him to leave with her tears. All this time, she had been trying hard to mentally prepare herself, hoping to be strong enough to let him leave with her smile.

On the train station platform, people were constantly coming and going.

An Hao ignored the strange looks people gave her, clinging tightly to Qin Jian, her head resting on his chest, her heart full of reluctance.

Ning Yibin and Zhang Yun watched from a distance, leaving this precious time to the young couple.

After a long while, the train whistle sounded, hastening people’s farewells.

An Hao let go of Qin Jian, stood on her tiptoes, and whispered in his ear, "Qin Jian, wait for me. I’ll come find you during my vacation!"

"Alright. Take good care of yourself! And take good care of mom and dad!" Qin Jian bent down to kiss her forehead, waved goodbye to his family, and resolutely boarded the train.

Through the clear train window, An Hao saw his tall and straight figure walking into the carriage.

When he sat down and looked at her, An Hao gave him an incredibly radiant smile.

Qin Jian suppressed the faint sadness in his eyes and, lifting his lips, also gave An Hao a smile.

The train pulled away, and the platform was filled with people waving goodbye to their friends and relatives, some with tear-filled eyes, others with faces full of sorrow. An Hao struggled to maintain her smile.

As the train grew more and more distant, An Hao slowly turned away, her eyes brimming with tears.

Ning Yibin and his wife approached, seeing their daughter-in-law’s face streaked with tears, Zhang Yun’s heart ached, and she opened her arms to embrace An Hao. "Good child! He will come back, don’t be sad!"

"Yes. I know, mom! I just feel a little... don’t worry, I’ll adjust and be okay," An Hao took a deep breath, smiling through her tears.

On the train, Qin Jian’s eyes looked into the distance, still reminiscing over An Hao’s every laugh and smile. Tian Niu swapped places with someone else and came to sit beside Qin Jian.

"Chief of Staff, are you still thinking about how much you miss your little wife?"

Qin Jian glanced at him and replied slowly, "Stop talking nonsense!"

"Hehe," Tian Niu scratched his head and said, "I understand how you feel! I kind of want to fall in love too..."

"Gu Shuangshuang?"

"You know?"

"Every little thought of yours is written all over your face. Even a fool could see it!" Qin Jian said with a smile curving his lips, "Have you confessed to Shuangshuang yet?"

"No. I dare not!" Tian Niu sighed, "Right now it might look like she gets along quite well with me, but who knows if confessing would scare her away? I didn’t tell her when I left this time, feels like I might never see her again, right?"

Qin Jian looked at the simple Tian Niu and scoffed, "I say you’re a bull, and you truly are a bull! Just wait until you regret it!"
