Traveling through time and space, wanting to lie down, but being forced to move forward

Chapter 1139 Leaving (1)

On the train from Xishi to Beijing, Mr. Wu, Liu Jingxue, Zou Mingxuan, Zhao Junhao and a group of four were finally settled in the soft sleeper compartment and waited for the train to start.

There were two bunk beds and four berths in the box, which were just enough for the four of them.

Under the lower bed and in a corner of the box were piled with their luggage.

Lightning was wearing a muzzle, lying quietly on the ground, sleeping.

To be honest, it took them quite a bit of effort to get Lightning on the train.

After all, it would be difficult to bring a wolfdog of that size on the train. If they hadn't been sitting in soft sleeper cars and had paid money to get on the train early, and Zhou Mingxuan had also used his connections, it might not have been possible to bring it on board.

Fortunately, the money and effort were not wasted, and lightning was finally brought here.

Liu Jianjun came over and conveyed the leaders' arrangements. Then he left first the next day, taking a lot of Liu Jingxue's things.

The four of them waited until the production team had finished winter fishing and hunting, and sold all the poultry that the production team planned to sell this year, before they prepared to leave.

In fact, it is not accurate to say that they left. It was just that Mr. Wu and Liu Jingxue left, and even the formalities were completed.

However, the captain followed Liu Jianjun's instructions and helped to conceal the matter without telling anyone else.

Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao are on home visit leave.

It’s just that this vacation is longer, and we won’t be back until April when spring plowing starts.

Knowing that the two were going to the army to serve as instructors, the captain did not make things difficult for them at all and directly approved leave for them.

In order to conceal their tracks, the four people did not come together, but arrived in Xi City in two groups two days apart.

Zhou Mingxuan borrowed a car in advance and drove into the production team blatantly, carrying Old Wu, Zhao Junhao, and a lot of luggage, and left amid the envious and jealous eyes of the startled villagers and educated youth.

After driving the luggage to Xi City, Zhou Mingxuan drove back.

After returning the car and staying one night at a friend's house in Linshan Town, he met up with Liu Jingxue and Lightning at the Linshan Town bus station the next morning. They then took a bus to Xi City, where they met up with Mr. Wu and Zhao Junhao.

It was only a little after three in the afternoon and not yet time to go to bed, so the four of them sat on the lower bunks chatting and waiting for the train to depart.

"Xiaoxue, after we settle down in Beijing tomorrow, Mingxuan and I will take you out to play.

Let me tell you, there are some places in Beijing that are quite interesting.”

Also, if you are dating Mingxuan, you are not allowed to go to Mingxuan's house and meet his parents.

However, Zhao Junhao did not say this. This kind of thing had to be said by Mingxuan himself, as it was not appropriate for him, an outsider, to interrupt.

Liu Jingxue shook her head, "Brother Zhao, have you forgotten what my second brother said?

I have to keep the fact that I'm returning to the capital a secret.

Also, I have to keep the fact that Brother Mingxuan and I are dating a secret, so that not many people know about it."

"If you really take me out to play, and someone comes after us, we'll be exposed.

Don't forget, when you guys return to the Red Star Production Team, I'll return to the city, and the news of my breakup with Brother Mingxuan needs to be spread, so that as many people as possible know about it."

Zhao Junhao frowned, "There's no need to be so careful.

Those people probably don’t have the guts to go to the military compound to investigate.”

Thinking of the wonderful things Liu Jingxue had done, Old Wu shook his head and denied what Zhao Junhao said.

“Better be careful.

Let’s still follow Jianjun’s intention.”

"Let's just let the news of Xiaoxue and Mingxuan's breakup spread. Anyway, Xiaoxue probably won't return to the Red Star Production Team in the future, so it doesn't matter if they misunderstand.

As long as we know that they haven’t broken up, that’s all.”

"As for you taking Xiaoxue out to play, there is no rush. We will all be in the capital in the future, so there will be plenty of opportunities."

Seeing that Mr. Wu had spoken and Zhou Mingxuan had no objection, Zhao Junhao naturally would not say anything more.

"But in this case, Xiaoxue will be too lonely in the capital during the New Year.

How about Mingxuan and I come over quietly, and we’ll change our looks before going out to play.

That shouldn’t be a problem.”

Old Wu thought to himself, Xiaoxue is going to the capital, and with Old Zou and Liu Jianjun around, there is no need for you two kids to accompany her.

Besides, the two leaders Xi and Liu might try to find a way to meet Xiaoxue, and she doesn’t have time to greet you.

Thinking of the arrangements made by her second brother a few days ago, Liu Jingxue explained,

"You guys should stay at home and spend the New Year with your family, you don't have to come and accompany me.

Once I arrive in the capital and settle down, I will go to Lingyuan.

My second brother called me a few days ago and said that he would have a few days off before the New Year and could go to Lingyuan to visit my uncle and aunt, and asked me to go there with him to celebrate the New Year."

They bought the train tickets back to Beijing a few days ago. Liu Jingxue had called yesterday and asked someone to inform Liu Jianjun, who would probably pick her up at the train station tomorrow.

“My second brother will probably pick me up at the train station tomorrow morning. He said he’s studying in Beijing during this time.

It’s not long until the Chinese New Year, and I guess he will soon finish his studies.

I should be leaving for Lingyuan with him soon." Liu Jingxue lied.

Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao didn't know that Liu Jianjun's troops were also near the capital.

Old Wu, who knew the situation, just smiled and said nothing, watching Liu Jingxue fooling the two silly boys.

When Zhou Mingxuan heard Liu Jingxue say that she would go to Lingyuan, his eyes lit up, "Xiaoxue, how long will you stay in Lingyuan?"

Liu Jingxue shook her head, "I don't know either."

I guess even if she wanted to leave early, her uncle and aunt wouldn't let her.

After all, she is a free person now and can stay as long as she wants.

As for my second brother, I guess he won’t be able to stay for long.

"Then you stay for a while, I'll be there right after the New Year," Zhou Mingxuan suggested.

Looking at Mr. Wu beside her, Liu Jingxue said, "Grandpa is going to stay in the compound for a while, why don't you spend more time with him?"

Mr. Wu shook his head, "He has important things to do, I don't need him to accompany me.

Besides, I won’t live in the compound for too long.

They all have jobs to do, and I don’t know the other people living in the compound, and I can’t get along with them. It’s too boring for me to live there.

After Mingxuan leaves, I will go back to my home."

Liu Jingxue was a little worried, "It's not good for you to live alone.

Besides, your house has not been occupied for a long time, so you have to clean it thoroughly before you can move in."

Liu Jingxue was also worried that those people would track her down and find out her previous residence. They would want to get her whereabouts from him, which would be detrimental to her.

Mr. Wu straightened his back and said complacently,

"Xiaoxue, do you have no confidence in the health-preserving pills you made, or do you not believe that your grandfather Wu can live on his own?

My current health is not any worse than those old guys in their 50s and 60s, so there is nothing to worry about."

He was also aware of Liu Jingxue's concerns and immediately comforted her.

"You don't have to worry about those people finding me. I'm not going back to my home before I was assigned here, but to another place.

Your Grandpa Wu was a rich man before and had several houses.

I have already written to you, Aunt Wu, to help me take back one of the places and clean it up so that I can move in right away.

It’s not far from where your Aunt Wu works, and she can still find time to visit me occasionally.”
