Fu Mingxue knew nothing of this.
She noticed the car wasn’t heading toward the research institute.
Her heart sank.
’Was I tricked?’
’Is this man’s ID fake?’
"Weren’t we supposed to go to the research institute? This isn’t the right way."
"Mr. Fu, we’re going to the base. It’s about a three-and-a-half-hour drive from here. There’s a problem with the engine, and they need you to go take care of it in person."
When Fu Mingxue heard this, she grew anxious.
"What’s wrong with it?"
"I don’t know the specifics. I just know that my superior told me to come and get you."
At that, Fu Mingxue stopped asking questions.
She wanted to point out that he hadn’t been clear. A trip to the base meant a seven-hour round trip.
That meant she’d be at the base for a long time as well.
If he had just told her beforehand, she could have let her family know she might not be home tonight.
Besides, she had to make arrangements at the school. If she couldn’t be there, she needed to give them advance notice.
That way, they could find another teacher to cover her classes.
’Oh well, I guess I can just call after I get to the base,’ she thought.
After all, the work at the research base was more important.
Although Mrs. Gao had visited this courtyard just yesterday, upon returning, she couldn’t help but marvel internally at how nice the house was—though the one at the Qin Family Mansion was even better.
’Still, not having to live with one’s in-laws is a true blessing for a daughter-in-law!’
’What’s more, the family estate is usually passed down to the eldest son.’
’A house as large as the Qin Family Mansion should have gone to my son-in-law anyway.’
’Moving out now—doesn’t that just mean they get an extra house?’
’And when his parents get too old to manage on their own, won’t her son-in-law and daughter have to move back there anyway?’
’Then this house will be left for her grandson.’
