Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 678: Chapter 678: Don’t Even Think About It

”Of course, it’s for using on the way. How can you go to Tian Niu’s house for the first time without a penny in your hand?” An Hao had already planned it out for her; this was no small sum of money, enough for her to handle all kinds of situations.

”I’ll just use Tian Niu’s money to buy things,” Gu Shuangshuang said.

”Don’t you know? Tian Niu has to give two-thirds of his monthly salary to his family, keeping only one-third for himself! His bit of money is barely enough to buy anything,” An Hao had heard from Qin Jian that Tian Niu had a large family to support, so his finances were very tight.

”Ah? There’s such a thing?” Gu Shuangshuang thought about it and realized it made sense; her own father also sent money to her grandmother, ”In that case, I’ll accept the money. But I don’t know when I’ll be able to pay you back once it’s spent.”

”No need to rush. As long as you pay me back within my lifetime, it’s fine. Anyway, I’m richer than you now,” An Hao said with a smile.

Gu Shuangshuang felt a warmth in her heart and hugged An Hao tightly, ”Thank you, An Hao!”

In that era, two hundred yuan was not a small amount. Importantly, to be willingly lent money by someone who clearly knows you’re unable to repay it—there really weren’t many people who could do such a thing.

”Thank what? We’re friends! Isn’t mutual help to be expected?” An Hao said as she hugged Gu Shuangshuang, ”Shuangshuang, I hope you’re happy!”

Gu Shuangshuang nodded vigorously, ”Mm!”

She would definitely be happy!

Gu Shuangshuang, who had originally planned to go shopping on the first afternoon, didn’t get to wander the streets; the next morning, she and Tian Niu spent half a day shopping, buying a lot of Nancheng City’s specialties and some candies that kids would like.

Gu Shuangshuang also specially bought two sets of new clothes for Tian Niu’s parents, as well as some soft cakes suitable for the elderly.

Indeed, before these items were even purchased, Tian Niu’s money was already running low, and An Hao’s money came in just in handy.

After everything was prepared, Qin Jian managed to get them two train tickets, and in the afternoon, he sent the two of them off on the train.

On the platform, Gu Shuangshuang said her goodbyes to An Hao.

Qin Jian took the opportunity to pull Tian Niu to a less crowded spot, as he had a mission given to him by his young wife to carry out.

”Chief of Staff, do you have something to say that can’t be spoken directly? Why drag me all the way out here?” Tian Niu felt Qin Jian was being secretive.

”Tian Niu, the matter I’m about to discuss with you, you have to treat it as a mission!” Qin Jian said solemnly to Tian Niu.

”Yes, sir!” Tian Niu stood at attention, ”Chief of Staff, please speak!”

”Gu Shuangshuang is going back with you, and you might be happy about it, but there’s one thing you must promise me and your sister-in-law! That is, to bring her back to me safe and sound.”

”Don’t worry, Chief of Staff!” Tian Niu promised, patting his chest, ”I will definitely protect Gu Shuangshuang’s safety.”

She was his future wife, after all; others may not say anything, but he couldn’t bear to put Gu Shuangshuang in danger or have her feel aggrieved.

Seeing that he hadn’t caught on, Qin Jian had to make his point clearer, ”That’s not what I mean! I mean, although Gu Shuangshuang is going to your home, there’s one thing—you can’t have any designs on Shuangshuang before you two are married.”

”Rest assured! I won’t!” Tian Niu really wanted to make her his wife, but if Shuangshuang didn’t agree, he wouldn’t do such a thing either.

”That’s good. Remember, this is an order! Even if Gu Shuangshuang agrees, you still must not do it!”

”Ah? Chief of Staff! Even you want to intervene?” Tian Niu looked annoyed, ”Alright! I promise, that’s it!”
