Reborn in the ’80s as a Group Favorite Bigshot – Chapter 177

Chapter 177: Our previous agreed time is too long.

Gu Yue and Song Chu sat down, each holding a cup.

“Dad, we are leaving the village tomorrow.”

The smile in Gu Yue’s eyes faded, replaced by a hint of sadness and reluctance at the upcoming separation.

Gu Yue’s Father patted him on the shoulder, “It’s already good enough that we father and son can see each other. Besides, Xiao Song helped send the Old Brigade Leader and the others to prison, so our lives will be better. You don’t have to worry.”

Gu Yue nodded, “Yes, I will write to you and send things often. Team Leader Wu won’t hold back your things.”

“I helped his son get a temporary job at the county’s machinery factory. In the future, I will help him become a regular worker. So as long as his family has this hope, they won’t make things difficult for you.”

This was the main reason why Gu Yue helped Team Leader Wu’s son get a job in the city.

After all, after they left, who knew if Team Leader Wu would be two-faced.

It was a long way away, and if something happened to his father and older brother, he wouldn’t be able to do anything in time. Revenge afterward wouldn’t undo the tragedy, so he had to make arrangements now.

Therefore, he used this benefit as leverage. As long as Team Leader Wu wanted his son to become a regular worker, he wouldn’t dare to neglect him.

And if anything happened, he would be notified immediately.

He had thought of this long ago, so when the people from the province asked him what reward he wanted after finishing the translation, he mentioned that he wanted to arrange for a relative to work as a temporary worker at the machinery factory.

This was not a big deal, and they might need Gu Yue’s help again in the future, so the higher-ups naturally agreed and made arrangements.

Gu Yue’s Father looked at his son, who was so thoughtful and becoming more and more composed and elegant. He raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder. He didn’t ask how he did it; he trusted his son.

“Without the Old Brigade Leader and the others, we can indeed communicate normally.” His youngest son was becoming more and more mature.

He knew how to use both hard and soft tactics to make arrangements for them. This was originally the kind of worry a father should have for his son.

His son’s growth and maturity made him feel sad because such growth came at a price.

Gu Yue’s Older Brother smiled and said, “Yes, maybe our family will have a chance to reunite in the future. Separation is just for a better reunion.”

Gu Yue nodded firmly, “We will definitely be reunited as a family.”

Song Chu added with a smile, “Maybe it won’t take too long. You might be able to go home in a year or two.”

Starting next year, after that clique is crushed, those who were sent down will gradually be rehabilitated and brought back.

Grandpa Gu and Gu Yue’s Father’s status was not low. Even if they weren’t in the first batch, they would definitely be in the second batch.

They might be rehabilitated even before the Gaokao is resumed.

Gu Yue’s Father smiled and said, “Then we’ll take Xiao Song’s auspicious words.”

“Uncle Gu, people in our village and this village say I’m a lucky star, so what I say might very well come true. You should take care of your health and wait to go home.” Song Chu joked.

She said this to liven up the sad atmosphere of parting.

Sure enough, Gu Yue’s Father laughed heartily, “Haha, I also think Xiao Song is a lucky star. I believe what you say.”

Of course, she was a lucky star. Otherwise, how could his son have met her? His son was no longer so cold and indifferent; he was becoming more and more humane.

Because of Song Chu, they were able to escape the suffering of being constantly exploited by the Old Brigade Leader and the others.

Xue Yue said with a smile, “This is the first time I’ve heard someone praise themselves as a lucky star. Xiao Song is indeed so unaffected.”

“But I also want to share the luck of the lucky star, hoping to go home in a year or two.” He missed his family so much.

Because he had studied abroad, he was reported by a competitor for a promotion. Although he resolutely filed for divorce before being sent down to avoid implicating his family.

But all these years, his family had been sending him things and hadn’t given up on him, so he also hoped for a reunion one day.

He liked Song Chu’s personality and what she said. It really struck a chord with him.

◈◈◈

Gu Yue’s Older Brother smiled and said, “So Uncle Xue also admits that Xiao Song is a lucky star.”

“Of course, Teacher Lu’s student can’t be wrong.” Xue Yue said in a good mood.

Gu Yue brought the white flour and meat that Song Chu had asked him to buy earlier, and then everyone started making dumplings together.

This was also the most lively day on the farm in more than three years, with everyone working together.

The dumplings were cooked, and each person got a bowl.

“It’s been so long, I almost forgot the taste of dumplings. They’re so delicious!” said one of the people who had been sent down, with a smile.

Xue Yue smiled and said, “Yes, today’s dumplings are the most delicious I’ve ever had in my life.”

“Cheers to delicious dumplings!” Song Chu had brought wine again today, and she also poured herself half a cup to drink with everyone.

Gu Yue originally wanted to stop her, but she said that today everyone was just trying to be happy, and it was okay to have a few drinks with the elders.

Gu Yue felt even warmer inside. Song Xiaochu was so considerate.

After dinner, when it was dark, Gu Yue and Song Chu left the farm.

Gu Yue was in a more relaxed mood today and had several drinks. At this moment, his deep eyes were tinged with a faint, hazy look.

He spoke first, “We’ll come to pick up Xiao Jin tomorrow morning.”

“We’ll come as soon as it’s light tomorrow, and we’ll take out and move the things we bought earlier from the space. Otherwise, we’re afraid the villagers will see us later.” Song Chu reminded him.

She knew that Gu Yue didn’t mention picking up Gu Jin tomorrow just so his father and older brother wouldn’t feel sad in advance.

Gu Yue chuckled, with an unusually magnetic hoarseness, “Song Xiaochu, you’re so thoughtful.”

Hearing this, Song Chu felt a jolt again. This guy’s voice was even more alluring after drinking.

“I’m a little padded jacket.” Song Chu quickly dispelled the distracting thoughts in her mind and joked.

Gu Yue turned his head, his eyes seeming to shine as he looked at her, “Yes, you are a little padded jacket.”

That’s why she warmed him.

Song Chu smiled and turned her head to look back at him, “Gu, the Academic God, your mouth is very sweet after drinking.”

“It’s sweet even without drinking.” Gu Yue leaned closer and chuckled.

Then his gaze fixed on her beautiful eyes, and the small sprout in his heart seemed to be about to break through the soil completely.

Song Chu felt a rare blush on her face from his gaze. If she wasn’t mistaken, there was a burning temperature in this guy’s eyes. Those long, deep eyes seemed to want to suck her in.

He suddenly looked at her seriously and said, “Song Xiaochu, I think our previous agreed time is too long.”

He had previously discovered An Dong’s little crush on Song Chu, but because the other party quickly gave up, he pretended not to know.

These past two days, he had been thinking a lot. In short, he didn’t want to see Song Xiaochu fall into the arms of another man one day.

Just thinking that if such a thing were to happen one day, he felt inexplicably as if his heart would be empty, and it was hard to accept.
