Chapter 42: Call from the Unit
"Oh? It seems she’s grown up and become sensible. That’s good. As long as she and Qian Cheng are doing well, she can just go with him when the time comes." "That works too. After all, there’s not much work at home for us, we two still have the strength to manage. It’s good for them to be together to develop their relationship."
Upon hearing Mu Siwu and Bai Yuhua’s plan, Jiang Xue felt a mix of emotions. In the past life, because of her own actions, she didn’t even know where Mu Qiancheng worked, let alone went along with him.
Thinking back, it was really a mistake. Being a spouse for five or six years yet not even knowing where her husband’s workplace was.
As Jiang Xue was lost in thought, a series of footsteps echoed in the courtyard.
Soon after, a shout was heard, saying, "Qian Cheng, Qian Cheng, there’s a call for you."
The voice sounded like it belonged to Uncle Wang from the village. Uncle Wang’s family ran a small shop with a telephone. So many times, calls from outside would go to the shop, and then the villagers would be asked to come take the call.
Upon hearing the shout while in the room, Jiang Xue’s heart tightened, a foreboding feeling rising within her.
She remembered Cheng Li mentioning in her past life that after Mu Qiancheng was angered by her, he went back to his unit for a mission. If that’s really the case, this call is probably to ask him to return.
