Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 1216: Setting Out to Search for Someone

After so many years of not seeing each other, the two old n had endless things to talk about.

However, Mr. Wei also knew the purpose of his old friend’s visit, and soon they got to the main topic: "Yiwen, stay here tonight, and tomorrow I’ll personally accompany you on this journey."

Mr. Gu was very excited about the serious matter: "Boyang, I’ve wholeheartedly accepted your kindness, but I won’t stay here. I’m too eager to wait any longer. If it weren’t for wanting to see you, I would’ve gone directly to search for them."

Mr. Wei could understand his feelings: "Alright, then I’ll have Wei Zi take you there."

Though they hadn’t seen each other for over twenty years, the two had grown up together and were intimately familiar with each other’s temperant and character.

They were only days apart in age, and had always called each other by their nas since childhood. Wei Zi was the nickna of Wei Fengyuan, and the elders had always called him that.

Mr. Gu looked at Wei Fengyuan: "Wei Zi, I’m afraid I’ll have to trouble you this ti."

Wei Fengyuan quickly waved his hand: "Uncle Gu, your words are too kind. If I hadn’t been on business trips recently, I would’ve personally gone over long ago.

When I found out about this a few days ago, I planned to request leave to visit, but my father said you’d be coming over these days, and asked to finish my work tasks first, so I could accompany you with peace of mind."

Mr. Gu naturally understood his old friend’s intentions: "Your father is thoughtful, and you’re not getting any younger, so you can’t be impulsive."

Wei Fengyuan nodded: "Indeed, I’ve requested leave in advance this ti, waiting for you."

From Chongqing to that place would take more than ten hours by car, and Wei Fengyuan’s wife was a bit worried: "No matter how anxious you are, you need to pay attention to safety. You cannot drive at night."

Xinyan understood their concern: "Auntie, I’m fairly good at driving, and will take turns with Uncle Wei. Rest assured, we will prioritize safety."

Chen Shifang knew her words were sowhat inappropriate at this ti but she knew her husband too well. If it weren’t for his father stopping him and asking him to handle work first, waiting for Uncle Gu to arrive and go together, he would have disregarded everything to search for them long ago.

Now she fears he will drive through the night without regard for anything, just to see them earlier. But the mountain roads are treacherous here, and she was truly worried, thus she spoke those words, fortunately, Miss Xinyan is an understanding person.

Thus, they didn’t even have the chance to eat at the Wei Family. They packed so food and set off imdiately.

They also agreed to stop at the next county to find an inn and stay the night, then continue the journey early the next morning.

The closer they got to the place, the more nervous Mr. Gu beca. He didn’t know what had happened to his son, or why he was in that remote place.

After nightfall, they arrived at the county town they had to pass through.

Xinyan said to Wei Fengyuan, who was driving: "Uncle Wei, let’s find a place to stay first and we’ll go out for dinner later."

Wei Fengyuan had been to this county town before, so they quickly reached the county inn: "Comrade, please give us two rooms."

The staff took a glance at them, and after inspecting their work permits and introduction letters, handed out two keys: "Rooms 203 and 204 upstairs."

Mr. Gu had no appetite: "Wei Zi, take Yanyan to dinner. I don’t have much of an appetite, so I won’t join you."

Xinyan held Mr. Gu’s arm: "Grandpa, how did you promise Grandma before you left? You agreed to listen to in everything. If you don’t eat well, how can your body withstand it? We can’t let the family worry, right?

Besides, you’ve confird the photo, and it’s definitely Second Uncle. He’s been staying there all these years, surely sothing has happened. If you are not healthy, how can we bring Second Uncle back to the Capital?"

Mr. Gu nodded after hearing Xinyan’s words: "Yes, you’re right. Let’s go, Grandpa will go out to dinner with you."

Seeing that Grandpa paid attention to her words, Xinyan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

There was a place to eat below the county inn, but none of them were in the mood to comnt on the dishes, chanically filling their stomach before returning to the inn early to wash up and rest.

The next day, before dawn, all three were up.

When they went down for breakfast, no other guests were there yet. After eating, Xinyan packed so veggie buns for the road, thinking they could fill their stomachs if hungry.

Xinyan was driving today. At first, Wei Fengyuan was worried, afraid that Xinyan wouldn’t be used to the road conditions, but he was surprised that the little girl drove as well as he did, and so he felt reassured.

At noon, they didn’t park to find a place to eat, but ate the packed veggie buns.

The closer they got to the place, the heavier their mood beca; the location was truly too remote.

Due to poor road conditions and taking several wrong turns, they went back and forth, wasting a lot of ti.

Finally, before the sunset fully descended, they found the village.
