Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 468

Chapter 468: Chapter 356: Fury Shooting to the Head

The night before leaving, Zhou Xiaozheng privately took Zhou Jiao to the Shikumen, once again asking the elderly couple to go with him. After being refused, he could only return disappointed.

Upon departure, they split into two groups. After sending off Zhao Chuan Guang and his wife, who were headed directly to the Northeast, the rest of the group embarked on their journey back.

Once home, they learned that Mr. Lin had already returned from his business trip. What she had to face still needed to be resolved, so that night, Zhou Jiao brought gifts to the Lin Family’s door.

"You’re back? Why is it just the two of you? Didn’t you bring the child over?" Mr. Lin happily pulled the two in to sit down, asking several questions in a row.

Zhou Jiao noticed that Mrs. Lin and the others weren’t there and paused. Seeing Zhang Guoqing had already started chatting with Mr. Lin, she didn’t ask out loud.

"Your grandmother had a small ailment again a few days ago and is still in the sanatorium. How was your time in Jiangnan this visit?"

Zhang Guoqing didn’t mention visiting the sick and diverted the topic: "It was alright. Grandpa, how was your trip to G Province? Is the weather really hot there now? I heard they have a lot of fruit varieties."

Mr. Lin shook his head at these words.

Zhang Guoqing pretended not to see him shake his head, smiling as he picked up his teacup.

"I brought some fruit back this time, you can take some to try later. How long will you be staying this time? Has Jiao Jiao met your cousin yet?"

Zhou Jiao smiled and said, "I was taken away by my dad as soon as I arrived, just got back today. I haven’t seen them yet, how come they’re not back now?"

"I got a call from the courtyard saying there’s a new movie screening tonight, and they went over early. They’ll be back later, or you could go find them there."

Zhou Jiao inwardly mused: She must be really bored to go looking for people herself. But it’s a good excuse to leave. She glanced several times at Zhang Guoqing.

"Grandpa, I’ll take Jiao Jiao over there then." Seeing this, Zhang Guoqing stood up to say goodbye.

Watching Zhang Guoqing and his wife leave, Mr. Lin hesitated for a moment, then went to the intersection, discovering the Cheng Family’s lights off while the Zhou Family’s were brightly lit; he shook his head.

Back in the living room, he instructed the auntie to carry a basket of fruit and follow him to his son-in-law’s house.

On their side, Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao didn’t know Mr. Lin doubled back. Luckily, despite not wanting to deal with the Lin Family’s three sisters, they hadn’t gone home yet; otherwise, they really would have been caught.
