Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1483: Chapter 865: Arrival_2

When Qi Xing returned to the dormitory, Qian Jiale was already leisurely sitting there drinking tea. Seeing him coming in with large and small bags, he went forward to check them and nodded in satisfaction: ”Not bad, all practical stuff. Seems like you haven’t lost your mind in a hurry.”

”The ticket?” Qi Xing, too anxious to be polite, stretched out his hand.

”Here.” Qian Jiale slapped the ticket into his hand, ”It’s a late-night train, fewer people, so you can blissfully sleep through the night.” He bought a hard sleeper.

”Thanks!” Qi Xing hugged him and patted him, not knowing what else to say for a moment.

If he hadn’t talked things through, Qian Jiale would definitely have bought him a soft sleeper, but now, by doing this, he was considering him from the ground up.

...

Commander’s Office.

Political Commissar Yuan looked at Master Zhou with speechlessness on his face: ”You really granted him leave and let him go back?”

”Then what do you expect me to do?” Master Zhou looked as if it was only natural.

”What do you think?” Political Commissar Yuan shook his head with a bitter smile, ”I really admire you. Obviously, Major Zhu and Major Luo have already brought his family over. Why let him bother making a trip back?”

”And you call yourself someone who does ideological work...” Master Zhou’s expression turned serious, ”Have you thought about why he hasn’t revealed this matter for so many years?”

”Of course, if you don’t have a deep understanding of this matter, you definitely won’t understand.” Political Commissar Yuan sighed, ”I feel sorry for him and that girl. However, a woman like that is a blessing for anyone who marries her for several lifetimes.”

”Yes, she’s a good woman, which is why I’m punishing Qi Xing this way, leaving her at home all these years, married but without a title. What is that all about?

If Little Zhu hadn’t called, and I went to check his confidential files, I wouldn’t have even known he had such a thing going on.

Of course, I’m not doing this just to punish him. If I tell him now, there won’t be any surprise, and it’ll also add a bit of fun to his life.”

”What do you plan to do?”

”Hmm?” Master Zhou paused slightly, then understood, ”Didn’t Little Zhu already say? Yue Qin and the jobs for the three elders of the Qi Family are arranged by Xiao Luo’s help.

However, I still think our army should take care of their living arrangements since this is a special situation for Xiao Qi; I’m sure no one will compare. What do you think?”

Political Commissar Yuan nodded: ”That’s exactly what I was asking you about. We can’t just shamelessly let two young girls solve all the problems.

Qi Xing’s performance over the years has been evident to keen eyes. Without that girl, he wouldn’t be who he is today, and without his parents’ open-mindedness, he couldn’t have stayed in the army with peace of mind.

From any angle, we should take action to warm the hearts of Nuannuan and the girl. Just give them the three-bedroom apartment that was supposed to be mine. Anyway, I, alone, can’t possibly live there.”

”Alright, since you’re willing, I won’t be pretentious. I was still worrying about where to find them a bigger place.” Master Zhou glanced at the time, ”Let’s have Xiao Yin take someone to clean it up now.”

”No need, after Little Zhu’s call, I already took people to clean it, and they thought I was moving in.” Political Commissar Yuan shook his head with a smile, ”Do they even think, me, a lonely old man, living in such a big house, isn’t that wasteful?”

”Your wife passed away over ten years ago, and you...” Master Zhou shook his head, ”Forget it, I won’t persuade you. I know you don’t like to hear it.”

Political Commissar Yuan laughed without taking offense: ”I’ve gotten used to being alone. As long as I live in the army compound and hear the bugle call, I feel more at ease than anything.”

...

Qi Xing tried again to call home and to Fat Aunt’s place, but the line still wouldn’t go through, which made his heart, slightly calmed by the prospect of going home after getting the ticket, become restless again.

He looked at the time; it was only 8 PM. He felt for the first time that time was passing so slowly—his train ticket was for 3:41 AM.

Seeing him so anxious, Qian Jiale felt a bit uncomfortable, but remembering the commander’s instructions, he dared not disobey and had to pretend to be anxious as well, comforting him and forcing him to lie down and sleep for a while—just short of finding a sedative to give him.

Meanwhile, Luo Ye and the others had gotten off the Sha City highway. There weren’t many cars on the road, and it wasn’t long before they drove into the city.

The journey of over ten hours is quite tiring for ordinary people to complete safely, so halfway through, Luo Ye had changed the Liangyou driver, and now she was in a car with the Qi Family.

Glancing at the rearview mirror, Luo Ye said: ”Sister-in-law, wake up Granny and Yan’er, we’ll first go for a meal, and then you’ll stay at a hotel tonight. We’ll deal with other things tomorrow.”

”Qi Xing...” Yue Qin mumbled, embarrassed to say more.

Luo Ye smiled: ”Don’t worry, your family will be reunited tonight.”

”No...we...” Yue Qin’s face reddened, unsure of how to continue.

”Sister-in-law, I understand how you feel. With Political Commissar Qi not around, it’s always me and Sister Zhu hosting you, which makes you uneasy, feeling you owe too much, right?”

The now-awake Granny Qi quickly chimed in: ”Ye’er, we owe you so much already; we could owe a bit more. Whatever you say, we’ll listen to you. Qinzi, believe in Ye’er, she surely has everything arranged.”

”Mom!”

”Mom!”

Mr. Qi and Mrs. Qi both called out simultaneously, looking embarrassedly at Luo Ye. The old lady was just too casual.

”What’s the shouting for?” The old lady gave her son and daughter-in-law a glare, ”Don’t make a fuss. Just work hard in the future to repay Ye’er. Those polite words just chill the heart!” (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation tickets and monthly tickets at Qidian ().
