Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 1888: Chapter 1888: Wings Have Hardened

”I work as a driver for a big boss. It’s quite a coincidence, really. On the night of New Year’s Eve, I was walking home alone and saved a child who almost got hit by a car. That child turned out to be the son of a big boss. To thank me, he gave me this job and offered me a particularly high salary.”

”Look at you, are you thinking bad things about my son again?” Jiang Guixiang sneered, her eyes sweeping over An Hao impatiently. ”Just because your family is rich, does that mean our family isn’t allowed to become wealthy?”

”Mom, say less!” An Hui kept imploring, ”Sis is just looking out for me!”

”Hmph!” Jiang Guixiang let out a cold chuckle, ”Child, you’re too kind-hearted, have you forgotten how they treated us back then?”

”I say, Aunt, has your heart been eaten by a dog? How did my dad get his injury! How did my dad help you? Listen to the nonsense you’re spouting!” An Ping couldn’t help but shout.

The atmosphere was such that An Hao truly couldn’t eat. She put down her chopsticks and got up to leave.

”Sis, where are you going?” An Hui quickly chased after her, ”Don’t leave, I mainly wanted to invite you to this meal. If you leave, what’s the point of this meal?”

”You’re wrong. The person you should be inviting is my father, your uncle! It doesn’t matter if I eat. The issue is, there are too many people at this table who make me uncomfortable, I can’t eat! Even if I did eat, I’d worry about indigestion!”

With that, An Hao left, leaving An Hui’s careful preparation and full enthusiasm entirely forsaken.

He knew if he wanted to get news from the military, An Hao was the best entry point and the most difficult one.

So, after careful preparation, he staged this lunch.

He hoped to use this lunch to improve his relationship with An Hao.

To ultimately gain access and information.

But it was all disrupted by his parents, who were unaware of the truth, leaving him both angry and anxious, yet unable to reveal his purpose to them.

Disclosing state secrets could get one shot.

For his own safety and his parents’ safety, he had to continue on in this way.

An Hui returned to the table, eating the meal without any taste.

His mind entirely occupied with thoughts of how to salvage the situation.

An Baoguo and Jiang Guixiang lived like there’s no tomorrow—if they had money today, they’d spend it today, carefree and worry-free.

Back home, An Hui shut the door and faced his parents with a stern look.

”What were you doing today? Can’t we just have a peaceful, happy meal? Didn’t I remind you before we came? Is it really so hard to cooperate with me?”

”You’re getting cocky now, aren’t you? Now that you’re making some money, you dare to talk back to your parents?” An Baoguo lit a dry cigarette, took a couple of puffs, ”If it weren’t for me back then, how would you have cleared that debt? Your dad had no credit at all?”

”Exactly. Our family has money, we live our lives behind closed doors, why should we try to befriend An Hao? Just looking at her face is enough, I feel like giving her a slap or two.” As Jiang Guixiang spoke, she felt an itch in her palm, rubbing it hard.

”There’s nothing wrong with trying to befriend her. I’m doing this to make money!” An Hui squatted on the ground, urgently explaining, ”Do you think I like her? Eyes raised up on her forehead, always looking down on us!”
