"As long as you don’t mind. I’ll have your Grandpa start handling things here. Also, for Xiao Yi’s affairs. My suggestion is, after you graduate, you’ll be stationed at the military base in S City, stay there for a year, then transfer here. At that ti, just withdraw from the frontline. Sharpshooters are few, it’s important to use your skills to train a group of elites, rather than lead charges and make sacrifices."
"Dad’s right, I’ll follow your advice. Initially, I also wanted to settle down so that Xiao Wan wouldn’t worry."
Lin Guozhi nodded, "That’s right. Over the past year, I’ve been in touch with higher-ups, and they say they want to form a team. Train so people. Old i and I intend for you to go over. It’s in Z City. They will also take two years to build a base there, so you’ll be just in ti."
"Godfather... knows about my situation?" Han Yi quickly asked.
Lin Guozhi nodded, "Your godfather was emotional for a long ti, godson beca his nephew. But he said, he doesn’t need a nephew, he needs you as his godson, he wants you to be well, don’t worry about family matters."
Yesterday, Lin Guozhi had a long chat at their ho with i Shuqing, and was completely unaware that his brother had an illegitimate child.
Unexpectedly, his mom knew about it, and when she found out her son had a woman in S City, she didn’t ask his brother to marry her but secretly threatened the pregnant woman, or else she’d ruin her entire family.
He rembered at the ti, his family just had Xiao Qian born, originally his mom was supposed to co help with the baby, she probably went over then.
Who on earth gave her the nerve to do such a thing?
His brother was wrong to begin with, playing with that girl’s feelings, then for the sake of family interest, abandoned her, ignoring the child in her womb.
It was indeed chilling, bringing sha to the i family. He didn’t know whether his dad was aware of this back then, regardless of anything, their family was indeed at fault.
For decades, not asking about the child, now knowing the child is excellent and accomplished, they want him back.
Without considering the child’s age, he’s no toddler, you can’t just take him away. The person has a mind, thoughts, and is no longer soone easily manipulated. Last ti he heard his son calling, saying this matter has sothing to do with Langchi, he was puzzled by what was going on, now it makes sense, Saozi and the nephew both knew about this.
Han Yi nodded, understanding i Shuqing’s intent. He didn’t say much more.
"Don’t sit down and start telling the kids these things, hurry up and have dinner, chat while eating. If you want to drink tonight, just have a little. Can’t drink too much." Liang Hongi shook her head helplessly, speaking while bringing out a bottle of Moutai for the three of them.
Lin Guozhi laughed heartily, "This is the chance. Let’s talk to the two kids. I’ve spoken to your Grandpa, in the afternoon we’ll take you to the old house."
"Hmm, got it, Dad."
After dinner, Lin Guozhi called Han Yi and Lin Yinghui to his study room for a long chat before letting them out.
In the evening, Little Star was monopolized by her Grandpa and Grandma; Lin Wan Han Yi as a couple, managed to get a good night’s sleep. Once they were in bed, Lin Wan curiously asked, "What did Dad want with you? Is it true that you’re being transferred here?"
"Coming here is good too, Dad ntioned that special unit. I’ve heard about it, the top values it a lot. Many in the teams are striving to get in. But the tests are surely strict, you can’t just enter with connections."
"Isn’t it dangerous?"
"I’m just going to be a coach, occasionally go out on missions." Han Yi didn’t want to discuss this topic with Lin Wan, fearing she’d worry, he hugged her and smiled, "This ti, Father-in-law spoke to about work, guess what he said?"
Lin Wan blinked, puzzled without speaking, waiting for Han Yi to continue.
At that mont, Han Yi suddenly laughed, "Dad said when he was in T City, he secretly hid many good things, and quite a bit of money. He wants us to bring them back when we go to T City."
Lin Wan was surprised, her mouth opened and she laughed, "Dad still has this trick up his sleeve."
Han Yi laughed too, "He said he was lonely there, thinking of you all every day, secretly buying many things for you. Later, knowing it’s hard to et, he stopped buying food and clothes, directly collected things that could be stored like jade, bracelets, paintings. There’s gold and silver, and jewelry too. Dad said he hid it all in a small box buried in a courtyard. That courtyard he secretly bought using Lin Guozhi’s na. When Dad was there, he replaced it with soone else’s na. There’s no record of that house under Lin Guozhi’s na. When we get a chance, we should retrieve the stuff, the land deed for that courtyard is in there too, selling would be best."
After a few years, when we have ti, we can go check it out, it shouldn’t be too late then.
"Don’t worry, Dad, we can keep an eye out, whenever we can, we’ll make the trip."
"Yeah, I told Dad not to worry, this must remain confidential."
Lin Wan chuckled in Han Yi’s embrace, "Mm, can’t let anyone find out."
The next day, Lin Yinghui took his Dad’s car to the district to et Saozi. Liang Hongi took Lin Wan and Han Yi to the shopping mall in the city center to buy gifts for the two elderly at ho.
When they ca, the siblings didn’t bring gifts, mainly because it’s inconvenient. Z City is different from S City, there’s a lot of local snacks here, and many street vendors.
The weather is too hot, they didn’t shop long, bought a tin of White Rabbit candies, a few tins of malted milk. Han Yi specifically found a tea shop, bought so good tea leaves. They also bought quite a few snacks.
Seeing sodas for sale at the roadside stall, Little Star insisted on drinking them. The adults had to pause, spend a di to buy a bottle for the child.
The little girl drank quite a bit, gulped down half a bottle, clung to the bottle refusing to let go.
Liang Hongi tried to take it back, she resisted. Han Yi helplessly smiled, took the child back from his mother-in-law’s arms, while coaxing her, sneakily drank most of the soda down so it wasn’t too cold for her. Only when the little girl drank the "entire" bottle did she give up. Fortunately, the weather was hot, the soda was not too cold, otherwise, the child would have belly troubles for sure.
When the three of them returned to the sdf unit, they realized that this place is so familiar. Isn’t this military residential area just where she was hit by a car in the previous life?
Lin Wan suddenly felt disoriented, standing where it happened in the past, recalling Han Yi holding her at the ti. Glancing around now, her mom, husband, and child are all by her side. That heavy emotion inside was swiftly chased away.
"What’s up?" Han Yi holding the child, noticed Lin Wan lingering in the middle of the road, looking disoriented. He returned concernedly to ask.
"Ah, nothing, just felt this place is quite nice," Lin Wan returned to her senses for a mont, said.
Han Yi smiled warmly, "Certainly, there’s a big square just across, a market nearby. The wide road has sycamore trees on both sides. I looked around yesterday, guessed you’d like it. If you like it, when we co here, I’ll talk to those above to see if they can place us here."
Lin Wan, surprised, wondered if in the past life, Han Yi chose this spot thinking she’d like it due to its environnt.
Moved deeply inside, Lin Wan’s eyes moistened, fearing Han Yi would see, despite others around, she hugged Han Yi’s arm, burying her face into the curve of his arm.
Liang Hongi looked at her daughter’s coyness with her son-in-law, shook her head helplessly. Luckily, the son-in-law pampers the daughter, otherwise, what man could stand her childish temper.
After lunch, the brother brought Saozi over.
Liang Hongi quickly took her to see their new room upstairs, "In the future, take so days off and co ho. Ah Hui isn’t here, Xiao Wan is far away, with you around, I won’t be as bored."
"Yes, got it, Mom," Actually, her ho was also in this big courtyard, not sure if lately parents have irritated the mother-in-law and father-in-law by coming over.
Anyway, since she ca back, parents have been visiting the unit, team can’t stand them, she deliberately avoids them, later having no choice, they let the brother and Saozi visit.
Brother and Saozi are often in the unit, team, sotis not seen for half a year, usually don’t care much about her as a sister. Now it’s fine, knowing she married into a good family, they’re all pulling close with her, bonding as relatives.
Since childhood, she’s always known that her family’s attitude has been the sa.
