Chapter 239 - 231 Utilizing Value
After dinner, Lu Aiguo first found Xu Liang and asked him to make a trip to the school to request a day off for Lu Yun, then he made a phone call to his secretary, instructing her to postpone his important schedules for today and to outright cancel the less important ones.
Meanwhile, Lu Yun found an opportunity to talk to Shitou alone and explained to him the whole process of how they had decided to let Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu use the medicinal baths.
Finally, Shitou understood. Right when he returned, he had already noticed the changes in Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu’s appearances and knew, without a doubt, it was because of the medicinal baths. The only question before was how much they really knew. Now that Xiaoyun had explained it, he felt reassured.
Once Lu Aiguo finished with his instructions, everyone went to the study together.
"Grandfather has asked for my opinion, and there was a mention of possibly reassigning me to the research institute in Capital City," Shitou said, glancing at everyone before finally resting his gaze on Lu Yun, "but I was hoping to wait another two years, to delay this a bit, if possible. What do you think?"
"I don’t understand the matters of your workplace, but I support any decision you make. Follow your own feelings; don’t worry too much about me, really," Lu Yun said, looking at Shitou. These were her true feelings.
Having chosen him, she naturally understood that their future might involve being apart more than being together. After getting married, it would be challenging to spend every morning and evening together like ordinary couples do.
Even if he were in Capital City, he would probably still have to work overtime frequently and be hard to see. And now, while she was still studying and had free time, she needed to research alchemy. Once she began making elixirs, it was common to be undisturbed for days and nights on end, so in reality, she might end up being even less free than him.
