77 -9 Decision_2
Shen Chi hadn’t expected his wife to pick up on his intentions so quickly, he paused and then nodded, “I’ve decided to transfer jobs.”
“…Have you decided on a place?” Lin Xiaoguai hesitated before asking.
She wasn’t holding much hope that Shen Chi’s and her own thoughts would coincide.
“Shanghai,” Shen Chi said without hesitation.
“But I plan to go to the Capital,” Lin Xiaoguai said expressionlessly. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
What do you mean you plan to go to the Capital?
Shen Chi was stunned for a moment but quickly reacted, “No, you’re coming with me to Shanghai.” He couldn’t possibly let his wife leave him behind.
Lin Xiaoguai remained silent, but Shen Chi absolutely would not take her silence as consent.
Yet, despite having a stomach full of tricks, he dared not use them on his wife now.
His face was tense, and after a while, his expression changed several times before he gritted his teeth, “You go with me to Shanghai, we’ll live there for two years, and then I’ll figure out a way to transfer to the Capital.”
Years later, Lin Xiaoguai would come to understand the sacrifice Shen Chi made at that moment.
But at that time, she knew nothing, frowning, she asked, “Are you sure we can just stay in Shanghai for two years?” In her past life, until her death, this man had never left Shanghai.
Could this be a trick?
“Definitely,” a shadow swiftly crossed the bottom of Shen Chi’s eyes.
Lin Xiaoguai frowned, “If you’re not able to transfer to the Capital in two years, I’ll take Little Niangao to the Capital myself.”
“Alright, if that happens, you can leave me behind,” Shen Chi said with a sigh of relief.
It’s not that Lin Xiaoguai was compromising, but rather, it wasn’t necessary to fall out with Shen Chi.
After all, considering his injured leg, she still had a soft spot for him.
In a few days, Shen Chi shared his decision with his family.
Shen Zhangming and Luo Yufang exchanged a glance, not sure whether to feel happier or sadder.
The good news was that the young couple wouldn’t have to live apart frequently and Little Niangao could see his father often; the sad news was that the house would once again be left to just the two of them, and they wouldn’t be able to see their great-grandson often.
Over the past year, although they were worried about their granddaughter-in-law and great-grandson, they were actually happy, even if it meant living in fear of the worst.
It was still better than the cold emptiness of the past.
“Grandpa and grandma, don’t be sad.
When it’s vacation time, I’ll bring Wanwan and Little Niangao back to visit you.
If you miss Little Niangao, you can always call Wanwan to bring him back.
She’s always free,” Shen Chi said reassuringly.
What do you mean she’s always free?
Was he planning to let her idle at home?
Lin Xiaoguai gave him a discreet glare.
The sadness in Shen Zhangming’s and Luo Yufang’s hearts was greatly alleviated by Shen Chi’s words.
Luo Yufang, wiping the tears from her eyes, said, “As long as you two are doing well, we’re happy.
Train tickets are so expensive, you don’t need to come back often, just call and write frequently.”
“When are you leaving?” Shen Zhangming asked, his emotions not as visibly expressed as Luo Yufang’s; he spoke after a moment of silence.
“It’s still early, we have to wait for the transfer order, at least a month.”
Hearing this, Shen Zhangming and Luo Yufang finally relaxed.
It wasn’t an immediate departure.
Suddenly not being able to see their great-grandson would have been too much for them.
So, the most popular person here is actually Little Niangao?
Lin Xiaoguai also said, “Looks like we might leave around the same time as Xiu’er.
If possible, we’ll go see her off.”
Compared to Shen Zhangming and Luo Yufang, Shen Xiu, who had long been hoping his sister-in-law could come with them, had a simpler wish, “That would be great, the capital city is so close to Shanghai, I can go to Shanghai to play when I have vacations.”
Luo Yufang couldn’t help but laugh and cry, glaring at her and said, “All you think about is playing, forgetting us old folks, right?”
“How could that be?” Shen Xiu coyly clung to her arm, “I will definitely come over to take grandpa and grandma to Shanghai for a holiday.”
“Don’t bother, our old bones can’t take the travel.
You young people go have fun,” Luo Yufang was only making a light-hearted comment, truly not bothered.
Following that, knowing that their great-grandson would be leaving, the already doting Shen Zhangming and Luo Yufang spoiled Little Niangao even more, worsening his spoilt nature.
If not for Lin Xiaoguai and Shen Chi’s strict management, the boy could have poked holes in the sky.
As for Jiang Xiaomei, learning that Lin Xiaoguai would follow Shen Chi to Shanghai for two years before moving to the Capital made her very upset.
She had just received her admission notice from the Capital Preschool Teachers’ College and had hoped to continue her life with Xiaoguai.
Unexpectedly, Cheng Yaojin messed up her plans.
Thus, she was especially displeased with Shen Chi, convinced that he was the reason she was separated from Xiaoguai.
Shen Chi, fed up with it, had always hoped that Wanwan’s eyes only had place for him and was pleased with the current situation, not feeling guilty at all.
So, he easily ignored Jiang Xiaomei’s sorrowful glances.
Fortunately, Shen Chi, born in this era, didn’t know about the concept of lesbian relationships; otherwise, he would certainly have treated Jiang Xiaomei like a thief.
“Don’t be sad, it’s only for two years.
After that, I will be able to reunite with you,” Lin Xiaoguai finally spoke up to comfort her.
Jiang Xiaomei pouted, “It sounds like that, but who knows if Shen Chi will play dirty?” She was usually unguarded against people, and this was a remarkably vigilant moment for her.
Lin Xiaoguai was surprised and then couldn’t help but laugh, “Don’t worry, when have I ever broken a promise to you?
Even if you don’t trust Shen Chi, you should trust me.”
Jiang Xiaomei thought about it and agreed.
Xiaoguai was so smart; how could Shen Chi, that bandit, ever outsmart her?
She let go of most of her worries but still couldn’t help but admonish, “Then you must keep your word, and don’t forget to call and write often.
If Shen Chi bullies you, you must tell me.”
Seeing Lin Xiaoguai earnestly agree, Jiang Xiaomei’s face finally lit up with joy.
