Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 685

Chapter 685: Chapter 560: Heading to Hai City

The night enveloped Beijing, while the train station platform was brightly lit. Zhang Guoqing would never mistake the face in front of him. Even in the pitch black, he recognized his buddy standing there.

"Don’t tell me you skipped class?"

Yi Jiefang said with a mournful face, "Not even half a day after you left, I received a telegram from home. My great-grandmother unfortunately passed away. She loved me, her little grandson, the most. My family is busy with work and can’t leave, so I must go."

Zhang Guoqing laughed angrily and kicked at his leg, "Yeah right, your great-grandmother loved you the most, you’re just going to bask in that."

Yi Jiefang jumped aside, laughing, "All sorted. The teacher really didn’t approve, so I had my mom call, and he finally believed. He said our brothers’ relationship is so good that we share the same sorrow."

Ping’an, in Zhou Xiaozheng’s arms, laughed with a giggle.

"Uncle Zhou, keep this a secret. Don’t mention it in front of my dad."

Zhou Xiaozheng nodded with a smile.

Once on the carriage, Yi Jiefang smugly waved the ticket in his hand at Zhang Guoqing, making everyone laugh. This kid is really funny.

Zhang Guoqing paid him no mind, but looked out the train window at his father-in-law, "Dad, please remember what you promised me. Make sure to eat on time and go to the cafeteria..."

Zhou Xiaozheng laughed at him, "Alright. I’m not Ping’an."

After saying this, he turned to look at his wife beside the window, "Take this chance to really relax."

Lin Lishan nodded, "You take care of yourself too."

Zhou Xiaozheng looked at her and sighed silently. The blow this time was really too great; she still hasn’t returned to her carefree state.

Zhang Guoqing, seeing this, stepped aside to give the couple some space for private conversation.

Ping’an let go of Aunt Chen’s hand, ran over to Lin Lishan, and shouted to Zhou Xiaozheng outside the train, "Grandpa, remember the little box if you get hungry. Great-grandma said she’d make you a midnight snack, and I’ve already told her what you like. I’ll be back soon to keep you company and bring you gifts."

"Okay, don’t be mischievous outside, remember to stick close to the adults, and never act on your own. If you see something you like, let your grandma buy it for you, don’t be stingy with the money."

"Grandpa, what if I miss you without you by my side, I don’t want to leave anymore."

Zhang Guoqing rubbed his aching head, watching the little drama king starting again. If he doesn’t want to leave, why is he clinging to his grandma? Without the little demon at home, the little drama king starts, and the life-or-death departures on every train journey terrify him.

The whistle blew; as the train started to move slowly, Ping’an cried out in panic, "I want Grandpa; I’m not leaving, really, I’m not leaving."

Zhang Guoqing, already prepared, immediately grabbed his body stretching out of the window and called to the worried Zhou Xiaozheng outside, "Dad, don’t worry, he’s just like Jiao Jiao."

Zhou Xiaozheng chuckled in surprise, "Little man."

Inside the carriage, as Ping’an saw the train move more swiftly, he immediately shouted, "Bleed, but no tears." After he said this, all he could now see was his grandpa waving goodbye to him.

Lin Lishan consoled him by the side, "We’ll be back in a few days, just as your grandpa returns from his trip. What are you going to do with your grandpa and grandma?"

Ping’an wriggled out of Zhang Guoqing’s arms and ran to Lin Lishan’s side, "Grandma, I really like you, and I’ll keep you company. Did grandpa give you money?"

Lin Lishan picked him up, laughing, "Enough for you to spend."

Yi Jiefang, having watched everything from start to end, grabbed Zhang Guoqing in shock, "Where did your son learn this face-changing trick?"

"Kids are all like this." Zhang Guoqing casually replied.

"Really?"
