Chapter 857: To Meet Him
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Upon hearing this, Su Li suddenly remembered that his father had been away for quite some time. He immediately asked, “Mother, I miss father too. Why has he been gone for so long?”
Gu Zi replied, “Perhaps he has some mission to attend to. After all, your father is very capable. I wanted to tell you that I plan to go to the capital to find him, but I’m worried about leaving you here alone. I’ve already arranged for your leave from school. Would you like to come with me?”
Gu Zi had made up her mind. Even if it meant waiting aimlessly in the capital’s military district, she was determined to find him and return to Guangcheng together. Su Shen had made so many efforts and accepted such dangerous tasks just to return home. All she had to do was make a trip to a distant place. There was no reason not to go.
Upon hearing this, Su Li eagerly said, “Yes, yes, mother, don’t leave us behind. Take us with you!”
Gu Zi felt reassured. She turned to Su Bing, who also nodded, “Mother, we’ll go. Don’t worry about our studies falling behind. Su Li will bring all his textbooks, and I’ll tutor him on the way.”
Su Li, who had been fantasizing about the delicious food and fun activities in the capital, felt deflated at his stern older brother’s words. “Brother, I understand. I’m lucky to have you!”
Gu Zi looked at her two sons, then at the little girl in her arms. Her nervousness finally eased a bit. All this time, it had been Su Shen who had been tirelessly taking care of their home and her, running around both inside and outside. This time, she decided to make the journey for him, to cross thousands of miles to meet him.
Gu Zi called Jin Long, asking him to help investigate Su Shen’s latest situation. She told him, “I’ve decided to take the three children to find Su Shen. Jin Long, I’ll leave the task of buying the tickets to you.”
Upon hearing this, Jin Long felt happy for Su Shen. He assured Gu Zi, “Sister-in-law, I’ll handle the tickets. Also, the journey is long and the train is crowded and chaotic. I’m really worried about you traveling alone with three children. I’ll go with you. Together, we’ll bring Brother Shen back from that inescapable place!”
Gu Zi’s heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was finally able to relax a bit. It was Jin Long’s reasoning that brought her comfort. Although there was still no news about Su Shen, he must be safe. This was good news indeed!
The night before their departure, Gao Ming arrived at the Su residence carrying a child’s suitcase and a backpack. He told Gu Zi and the others, “Aunt Gu Zi, big brother, second brother, I want to go with you. Your father is also my father. I want to see him too!”
This left Gu Zi at a loss. Was Gao Ming planning to take the Su surname? Would Su Shen not be overjoyed to have another son? She could only patiently comfort Gao Ming, “Su Bing and Su Li will be back soon. If you come with us, what will your grandparents do when they miss you?” freёwebnovel.com
Gao Ming seemed to have thought everything through. He said, “If my grandparents miss me, they can call me. In any case, I must go. I don’t want to be separated from my second brother. Oh, my head, who hit me?”
Turning his head, Gao Ming saw his grandmother. He immediately cowered, and before he could react, his grandmother had dragged him away. Gao Ming’s plan to accompany them had thus failed.
