Chapter 351: Chapter 347: Captain, Don’t Die on Me

At this time, there were only half a month left until the start of school.

Wen Ran’s trip, wasn’t just about going to school but also moving houses, so naturally, she had to time her arrival to report in, and making preparations in advance was the main task.

First, stay at the guesthouse for a few days, then think of a way to rent a house from the neighborhood.

Although, at present, all of this was making Wen Ran’s head spin, not knowing where to start.

But as the saying goes, you can’t let life be restricted by trifles, get there first and then talk about it.

Off we go!

The captain was full of reluctance, seeing Wen Ran off, he even hid to shed a few tears.

Even made Wen Ran feel reluctant to leave.

Honestly speaking, since she went to the countryside, apart from the Xiao Family, the captain took care of her the most.

Whenever he was free, he would think about goofing off a bit.

Even though he nagged a lot, he never really punished for anything.

Over the years, he endured quite a bit of temper from her.

But even so, whenever something troublesome came up, he would be the first to step forward.

"Uncle!"

Wen Ran waved, "Once I’m settled in the Capital City, I’ll take you to see Tiananmen Square."

These words weren’t just empty promises.

Wen Ran truly wanted to take the captain to see it.

In the hearts of countless people, the most sincere wish is to make a trip to the Capital City. To have a look at the great person who led everyone out of hardship.

"Ow!"

The captain, with reddened eyes, tears in his cloudy eyes, "Uncle is waiting for you!"

"You better take care of yourself! Don’t die!"

If he died, she wouldn’t be able to take the captain to see it.

How scary would that be?

By then, if it was considered causing trouble or insulting a corpse, and she got arrested for it.

How wronged would she be?

If one knew her true nature, she’s just an innocent, very kind-hearted little girl.

Captain: "..." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Tsk.

Initially, the feeling of reluctance was very strong.

But after Wen Ran’s emotional speech.

Suddenly, it didn’t feel that hard to part anymore.

If she’s not there to annoy him, given how robust he was, living another ten, eight years would be like a piece of cake.

But if he sat with Wen Ran every day, it couldn’t be said for sure.

Who’s to say if one day he would get so annoyed that he’d roll his eyes and kick the bucket!

With a snap, he’d be gone.

"Just go already!"

The captain waved, "Honestly, just one more look at you gives me a headache!"

Wen Ran sniffs, "Really! Uncle, you must live to a hundred!"

"You little rascal, get lost already!"

Even though the captain cursed and swore, he still drove the ox cart to take the family to the train station.

On the way, Wen Ran kept nagging, "Uncle, to be honest, I don’t trust anyone else, so I’m leaving Red Army and Hetao with you."

After much thought, for the good of the dog and the wolf.

They decided to leave the pair at home for now.

When they settled in the Capital City, they’d find a way to secretly bring them over. As for how they’d bring them then...

That would be a worry for the future.

After all, bringing them along now wasn’t safe, staying at a guesthouse would be feasible for people, and dogs could barely manage.

But a wolf, just thinking about it gave them a headache.

Especially Hetao, who had a very good diet at home, and Wen Ran would often give him a special treat.

Plus, Mrs. Xiao was also doting on the kids,

You’d feed him, and she’d feed him.

He got so plump and hefty, he looked no different than a heavy truck at a glance.

His size long surpassed Red Army’s.

That fluffy fur, when running around, if you said he was a dog, you’d need a fool to believe it.

The captain: "Hmm, hmm, hmm, got it."

After saying that, the captain was stunned, "Wait a minute, don’t you still have another one at home?"

Oh, the Old Wolf, right.

Wen Ran grinned, "Heh heh, well, Old Wolf isn’t exactly ours, tying it up at home wouldn’t be right, so there’s no way to entrust it to you, so it went back home."

The captain felt crestfallen, "Wen Ran, I never expected that before leaving, you’d play such a big trick on me."

"Not exactly~"

Wen Ran pouted, "Don’t worry, this is a wolf with integrity.

I can vouch for it with my character, that it absolutely, absolutely won’t do anything ungrateful.

But revenge, we can’t stop it, well, how to put it? Right and wrong, cause and effect, it’s all in the heart, isn’t it?

Rest assured~it knows its limits."

The captain, in a weakened voice, "You just said, you’d use what, to guarantee it? I didn’t hear clearly, say it again."

Wen Ran glanced at the captain, tsk!

This old man isn’t that old, why’s his hearing starting to go?

So, out of kindness, she repeated, "I said I’m willing to vouch for it with my character."

"Hilarious, do you even have such a thing?"

Wen Ran: "..."

She suspected that the captain was attacking her.

And she had evidence!

Where things stood, even if the captain dragged Wen Ran down now and beat her up, it wouldn’t change this outcome.

He just hoped that wolf could be reasonable, repay kindness, avenge grievances, and not involve any other innocent people.

The Xiao Family, upon hearing the exchange, almost laughed themselves to tears.

In short, upon reaching the train station, more tears were shed.

The captain watched the train pull away, then turned to wipe his tears.

Wuuu wuuu wuuu, back in the brigade, he wished he could be aggravated to death, but now that she had left, he felt empty inside.

The conditions on the train were very basic.

Especially with two kids, barely a month old, suffering along, the siblings whimpered and cried.

But, perhaps because of the unfamiliar environment.

Even their crying was soft and gentle, like little kitten mewls.

Mrs. Xiao, used to their tyrant-like yelling, was suddenly struck with immense heartache.

"Aww, aww, no crying, it’s just a short while, Grandma knows you’re uncomfortable sleeping.

We’ll endure for a bit, once we arrive, it’ll all be okay."

But, this was the best condition they could manage.

They were in a sleeper cabin.

Though six beds were squeezed into a small space, having a place to sleep was better than none.

Xiao Chenye clambered up and down tidying things.

Arranging the beds took some deliberation too.

Mr. Xiao and Xiao Chenye were positioned on the bottom, in case of danger, they were the strong ones.

Xiao Chenyue and Hongguo, they were the undisputed weaklings.

and were placed on the top with Mrs. Xiao.

Of course, Mrs. Xiao also had a child with her.

Though space was tight, they managed to squeeze in for sleep.

Wen Ran stayed on the second level with her child, and lying across from her was Shen Yueyue.

As for why she got a bed to herself...

Well, she was loaded with money.
