Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 1013

Chapter 1013: Chapter 886: A Wasteland

As soon as Zhang Guoqing left Aunt Chen’s line of sight, he immediately sped up his pace. He already had a hunch, but still held onto a sliver of hope.

Going upstairs, he saw Ping’an, "Are you reading, baby? Is your mom asleep?"

Ping’an widened his eyes, "My mom isn’t downstairs?"

Zhang Guoqing’s heart sank, she really ran away. Worried about scaring his son, he kept a smile as he pulled the child into the room, "She’s not downstairs, she should’ve gone to the Cheng Family’s."

Ping’an looked dejected, "No wonder, no wonder, I’m so foolish, fell for it."

"Son, if your mom is using a trick, it’s enough to fool your grandpa, there’s no need to overthink it. First, tell dad, is she headed to the city?"

Ping’an nodded.

Zhang Guoqing laughed at that, "I’ll go chase her back."

Seeing him about to leave, Ping’an grabbed him, "Dad, you can’t go! I’ll do it."

Zhang Guoqing didn’t think his eldest son wanted to run out and play. The key issue was his son’s worry about his mom, and if his wife made their son worried, she definitely revealed part of the plan.

Now, he wasn’t in a hurry to leave. Sitting down again, he restrained his smile, "Tell daddy what your mom said to you?"

Repeating the exact words was impossible for Ping’an. He recounted in detail the conversation he had with his mom, including the discussion on knitting sweaters.

"Your mom even left a backup plan for me." Zhang Guoqing was so angry he was grinding his teeth, wishing he could tie up her legs with a rope.

Ping’an felt equally aggrieved, "Exactly. My mom deliberately said those things in front of me, just to use me as a messenger."

"When your mom first said you’d help steady me, you should’ve told me right away. Silly son, your mom is cunning."

After speaking, Zhang Guoqing stood up again, "Now, even if your mom wants to act, it won’t be that quick, I’ll bring her back first. You watch over your brothers, don’t run out to find us."

"Dad, wait. My mom said my task is to keep you steady. Think about it, she must have known you’d come after her. Won’t it ruin her plan if you go?"

Of course, it would!

His wife was definitely looking for an opportunity, and if she got the chance, she’d certainly act. If he started entering and leaving the Big Courtyard, those logs would become suspicions and evidence.

And with all those cheats to help her, who would believe that with him and his father-in-law at home, she could pull this off alone?

Zhang Guoqing anxiously scratched his head. Damn it, he really couldn’t go! Nor could he notify outsiders for help! He actually had to count on his wife to make a move!

"Dad, let me go! I’m small, less noticeable."

"No way! We should have confidence in your mom. Do you think she’s the type to act recklessly? Without careful planning or having an escape route, she’d never make a move!"

Zhang Guoqing patted his son, "Don’t worry! We have to trust your mom; she’ll definitely be safe. Now you need to coordinate with dad."

Ping’an didn’t believe his dad wasn’t worried, but decided not to point it out.
