Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 869 - Chapter 869 Chapter 868 Holiday Over

Chapter 869: Chapter 868: Holiday Over Chapter 869: Chapter 868: Holiday Over The first day back from leave, Nan Fei woke up early, knowing that military training was no joke and aware of her own poor physical condition, so she dared not take it lightly. Everything was well-prepared, clothes, toiletries, skincare products, and of course, the essential snacks.

During this trip home, her mother had almost insisted she take the entire food factory with her. The bags she brought were almost entirely filled with various snacks and processed bean products, food, and more.

As their own products hadn’t yet entered the Imperial City market, they were temporarily unavailable here.

So, early in the morning, Nan Fei dragged her oversized suitcase to school. Before leaving, she made sure that Jiang Yang and Yu Yiji were left in the care of Gu Qiu and Wei Qin’s secretary, Little Wang.

She could rest easy only after knowing that Zhuanzhuan was personally escorted to school by Jiuming.

As for Huo Beijiang’s arrangements, Nan Fei felt delighted.

“Enough! Would you stop nagging? Am I a child?” Gu Qiu was getting a headache from her incessant reminders.

“Thank you so much!” Nan Fei clammed up, embarrassed.

She just couldn’t help but worry! Back at home, she had promised her parents that she would take good care of her younger siblings, and that her parents would still come to check on them once they were less busy.

It seemed easy at the time, but now that she had joined the military academy, with training and being a new student, Nan Fei could already see how busy she was going to be. Fortunately, everyone was busy; Jiang Yang was attending school as usual, and currently, Wei Qin was still unconscious, so a visit a week would suffice.

Otherwise, she would reside in the school dormitory.

“Why are you being so formal with me?” Gu Qiu’s personality was somewhat easygoing. She had stayed over at Nan Fei’s place yesterday because she was afraid Zuo Xinyao might seek revenge.

After all, with Huo Beijiang backing her, she figured that Zuo Xinyao wouldn’t dare to do much.

In reality, Gu Qiu knew that this was a temporary solution, not addressing the root problem. But who could blame her when she had been with Zuo Xinyao years ago, even causing him to bear a bad reputation. Though it was said that Zuo Xinyao had chosen to leave the service, she knew in her heart that it was due to her actions that he was expelled from the military.

Thinking of this, Gu Qiu was terrified. Internally, she cursed Zuo Xinyao for his narrow-mindedness and his nature of holding grudges, remembering the events even after so many years.

This showed that when men harbor grudges, it really isn’t a woman’s business.

“Here I am living with you, eating and drinking at your expense, and you never talked about money!” Gu Qiu held Nan Fei’s hand, smiling pleasantly: “The person who should be thankful is me. Taking Jiang Yang along is just convenient, seeing as I have to drop off Yu Yiji anyway.”

Nan Fei looked at Gu Qiu’s smile with a hint of complexity in her gaze.

She had seen it clearly yesterday; the way Zuo Xinyao looked at her was unmistakably the way a man looks at a woman, not like Gu Qiu described, as if he saw an enemy.

She could already predict that Gu Qiu would inevitably be completely taken advantage of by Zuo Xinyao.

“Yes, sister, don’t worry.” Zhuanzhuan, with hands in her jacket pockets, smiled and said, “I’m only two years younger than you; you don’t need to worry so much about me.”

Zhuanzhuan then flashed a triumphant smile, her eyes twinkling cleverly, looking both sweet and intelligent.

“You see how well I’ve been doing at school.”

“Indeed!” Nan Fei nodded, her thick, curled eyelashes trembling slightly before she finally revealed a relieved smile.

“Goodbye! Goodbye!” Yu Yiji kept waving his chubby little hands, shouting energetically, “Goodbye, Sister Nan Fei! I will miss you, I’ll miss you tomorrow too.”
