Chronicle of the 70s-Chapter 341 - 328: Follow-up, Second Half (Part 2)

It turns out it was the old master’s intention, Li Xianglu didn’t even ask about the specific position, she just agreed right away.

The next day, she still had to go to work. When leaving, Li Xianglu woke up Ba Yi, who was still sound asleep, and told him that mom had to go to work. The child clung to her, not letting go for quite some time, before finally watching her leave with tearful eyes.

After they left, Su Yan and Hu Zi took over watching the child together. By then, Leng Qing was already on the move and would arrive that evening.

Upon arriving at the bank, Li Xianglu didn’t mention to the director about her job transfer, she just peacefully continued working. Qin Xi had also told her that when things were almost ready on his end, he would let Li Xianglu apply.

Li Xianglu had requested a leave from the bank due to Ba Yi’s scare, hoping to leave work promptly at five. She wouldn’t handle anything concerning money withdrawals, and the director also knew about the attempt to kidnap Li Xianglu’s child, so he agreed directly.

When Li Xianglu got home, she heard from Old Geng at the door that all the children were in the front courtyard’s living room. Upon entering, she heard Su Yan talking to the twins about this.

As soon as Li Xianglu entered, Ba Yi immediately saw her and pursed his lips, about to cry in grievance. Li Xianglu sighed and quickly approached to pacify him by holding him and patting his back, and explained again that she went to work.

Ba’er, who was initially in Su Yan’s arms, seeing his brother in mom’s arms, unhappily fussed about being put down. Su Yan had no choice but to place him on the circular couch. Ba Yi twisted his little body and moved towards Li Xianglu, burrowing into her embrace.

Li Xianglu could only helplessly hold Ba’er in her arms too. Fortunately, the two children didn’t shove each other and just sat quietly.

Su Yan shook her head and said, "After you left today, the eldest’s mood has been bad all day, he also ate less, kept staring outside calling for mom, and cried again when he woke up at noon."

Li Xianglu felt heartbroken, but Su Yan then said, "Before you guys left, I was planning to go to Hong Kong because of the letter of credit and telegraphic transfer issues, which impacted the company—a few major shareholders wanted to withdraw their investment. It’s a good opportunity for me to go and see."

Li Xianglu was somewhat worried, just about to say something when Su Yan continued: "Xu Wu will accompany me there."

Since Xu Wu would be going, she felt relieved.

Su Yan, holding the hands of the two children, said with a bit of regret: "Initially, my milk powder company had a small advertisement in mind, wanting to feature these two little ones, but now it feels better not to, to prevent their faces from being remembered by people."

However, Li Xianglu felt there was nothing to worry about, the children would have to go out anyway, it’s not possible to confine them forever, shooting an advertisement is also a life experience isn’t it, they can even keep it to watch later.

Su Yan initially thought the same way. Hearing Li Xianglu say this, she also felt it wasn’t bad and planned to discuss it again when the old master returned.

After Qin Xi came back, upon hearing during dinner that the children might shoot an advertisement, he was first stunned, then smiled: "Yeah, letting them experience it is not bad."

However, the old master was somewhat hesitant, after all, exposing the children’s faces would make them easily recognizable when going out.

Qin Xi’s thoughts were the same as Li Xianglu’s, keeping things hidden is not the solution.

Xu Wu smiled and said: "I and Grandma Su registered a joint venture film and television company, it’s all internal staff, no worries."

Li Xianglu did not expect Xu Wu would register a film and television company, which indeed makes good money, although personal film and television enterprises in China only started developing in the nineties and were not as prosperous as those in Hong Kong. This must have been Qin Xi’s idea too, thinking this, she then looked towards Qin Xi.

Qin Xi added a piece of steamed sea bass for Li Xianglu, smiled, the meaning was clear.

After dinner, Leng Qing hurried into the house. She had already learned about the twins’ near abduction over the phone and rushed back immediately. Upon seeing both children, she was overwhelmed with heartache and immediately hugged them.

The children had a good relationship with Leng Qing, they were also overjoyed at this time. Leng Qing took out two metal frogs from her bag, and under the curious eyes of the children, she wound them up and placed them on the small kang table in the circular couch, then the frogs began hopping. The children were shocked at first, then curiously fiddled with them when the frogs stopped.

In the evening, Leng Qing initially thought about having the children sleep over at her place, she would watch over them, but Li Xianglu disagreed, thinking it better for the children to sleep with her, although it meant waking up at least once in the night, but this way the children would sleep more peacefully.

After the children fell asleep, Li Xianglu asked about the film company, Qin Xi confirmed it indeed was his idea.

Then Qin Xi brought up another matter: "Uncle has appeared, registered two companies, one is a film company, the other is a food company."

Li Xianglu was slightly startled.

Qin Xi, moving Ba’er, who had his little leg draped over his brother’s body, continued: "Now that it’s out in the open, it’s easier to deal with."

Li Xianglu nodded, yes, out in the open, there’s nothing to worry about, just let people watch over it, the worry is what they might do secretly.

Qin Xi thought for a moment and then mentioned another thing: "Qin Miao was released from prison early."

Li Xianglu was immediately shocked, everyone else was okay, but this Qin Miao was a madman, the kind that was reckless, what if he hurt the children.

Qin Xi calmly patted her shoulder and said: "Don’t panic, she almost disappeared right after being released from prison, Xu Wu checked, she was sent straight to Hong Kong then to the United States."

Li Xianglu frowned, what’s she doing in the United States?

Qin Xi thought for a moment and said: "Maybe they sent her to study, I think uncle must be the one who killed Shen Yuehong, he knew a lot about things that were going to happen later, then he collaborated with someone surnamed Qi."

With that, Qin Xi asked: "Have you been dreaming again?" 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Li Xianglu knew what Qin Xi was asking about, sighed and nodded, she had been dreaming, the night the children came back she had a dream, it was long, but very complete, and she finally knew how she ended up here.
