Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 1545: Chapter 1545: Being the Third Wheel

”Don’t busy yourself. I just came to check on everyone. Knowing you are all fine puts my mind at ease.”

”You can’t just leave like that! Since you are here, you must stay. We mustn’t let Qin Jian go either; he should stay and have a couple of drinks with us.” Ning Yibin commanded Qin Jian as well, ”Your father-in-law is here, and you have to entertain him well today. Forget the park for now, we can go there some other time.”

”Okay.” Qin Jian agreed.

”And what about me? I can drink too. How could you all forget about me?” An Ping, who was sitting by the side, chimed in.

”Indeed, how could we forget you? Hahaha! Our Boss An, you are no small fry. Your business is thriving, I’ve heard it all from your sister.” Ning Yibin couldn’t stop praising An Ping.

”Well... hehe... I owe it all to my sister’s wise decisions. To be frank, she does the brain work, and I do the heavy lifting.” An Ping knew his own capabilities well.

He felt gratitude and admiration towards An Hao in his heart.

His sister had helped him a lot, and her decisions were always spot-on.

Her vision was exceptional, especially when it came to making decisions, she was even more decisive than a man.

”Your sister is quite something too. It’s Qin Jian’s good fortune from a past life that our Ning Family could marry such an excellent daughter-in-law,” Ning Yibin was very satisfied with his daughter-in-law and naturally praised her endlessly.

”That’s right. Thanks to you for raising such a great daughter, we got an exceptional and lovely daughter-in-law. We should definitely have a good drink to that.” As Zhang Yun said this, she brought over some hot tea.

Since they were not going out, Qin Jian and An Hao could start bringing things out.

But An Shuchao quickly stopped them, saying to An Hao and Qin Jian: ”You two should go ahead and take advantage of the good weather to take the kids out for a walk. Since Boss and his wife have asked me to stay, it wouldn’t feel right for me to leave. How about this: An Ping and I will stay for lunch. After you return from the picnic, we can leave. What do you think?”

”Alright.” An Hao agreed.

”Dad, I could use a relaxing day too. I’d like to go with my sister and brother-in-law.” An Ping didn’t want to sit here and drink formally; going out for a picnic seemed freer.

”What are you going to do, be a third wheel?” An Shuchao gave An Ping a disapproving look for his lack of tact.

”What third wheel? They’ve been married for ages now...” An Ping retorted unconcerned.

”No problem. If he wants to come, let him! It’s more lively with more people!” Qin Jian agreed.

An Ping sent him a grateful look and, patting his chest, promised everyone: ”I’m not just going for the picnic. I want to take my two little nephews out for some fun too. Sister, you and brother-in-law can enjoy your sweet nothings without any worries! I’ll take care of the kids.”

”What nonsense.” An Hao felt embarrassed after hearing these words.

Qin Jian, however, laughed happily and said, ”Alright, with your word, that settles it. Let’s not talk any more and get going! You two dads sit back and relax...”

”Go ahead.”

An Ping then got on a military vehicle and left the military compound for Xijiao Park.

It was a warm and blooming March, with plenty of people out for a spring outing, bustling about.

Upon arriving at Xijiao Park, the security guard drove back.

Once inside the park, An Hao found a spot with beautiful scenery and a wide view, spread out the picnic blanket, and sat down.
