Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1296: Chapter 1290: The Kind and Friendly Old Man_1 Chapter 1296: Chapter 1290: The Kind and Friendly Old Man_1 “Okay, I’ll go,” Chu Molin says, glancing over at Qin Xue. He hadn’t mentioned anything to her about this before, so he was feeling a bit guilty.

“And what about you, Miss Xue?” Ye Xiao looks at Chu Molin’s expression and realizes that this was a spur-of-the-moment decision, not something he’d discussed with Qin Xue, so he turns to ask for her opinion.

“I have no objections,” Qin Xue says. She hadn’t expected Chu Molin to suggest this, but she understands that what he needs from her right now is support, not opposition, so she agrees with his decision.

“Alright then. Let me make a call first,” Ye Xiao replies. After responding to the previous messages, he finally pays attention to Chu Molin and his wife.

“Why don’t you two go grab something to eat now? After you eat, you can start your journey,” suggests Ye Xiao. He’s worried about his son’s safety, of course, but it’s been a while, and he understands there’s no point in fretting now. Chu Molin won’t be able to get there immediately anyway.

“Alright, but could someone let my school know I’ll be on leave?” requests Chu Molin. He doesn’t want to just ditch without warning.

“Naturally,” nods Ye Xiao, he’s very familiar with handling matters like this.

“We can’t let people know about our relationship,” Chu Molin adds, not wanting any special treatment.

“Understood, don’t worry,” Ye Xiao assures him.

“Ok then, let’s go eat. I’ll arrange for someone to take your wife home,” says Ye Xiao, explaining the plan to Chu Molin.

“Okay,” mutters Chu Molin, feeling guilty towards his wife. He hadn’t anticipated this outcome. He’d only wanted to confirm a few things, but now he was headed for different results.

“Xue’er, I’m sorry” Chu Molin apologizes to Qin Xue as they walk behind the others.

“You have nothing to apologize for. Go, I’ll take care of things back home. Stay safe and come back safely,” comforts Qin Xue, understanding his intentions. His brother was there, he needed to save him, and she needed to be understanding about it.

“Okay,” Chu Molin didn’t know what else to say to his wife, so he could only nod in agreement.

“By the way, Miss Xue, are you comfortable working in the hospital?” Ye Xiao suddenly remembers something he had almost forgotten to ask.

“I’m okay,” Qin Xue replies. She only went to the hospital for surgeries that she couldn’t do elsewhere, so she felt it was alright.

“That’s good to hear. I was worried you wouldn’t adapt well,” confesses Ye Xiao. He hadn’t known that Qin Xue had been a doctor in her previous life and assumed that she was new to the hospital environment. So, he was a bit concerned about her adaptability. However, her reassurances made him realize he might be worrying over nothing.

“There’s no need to worry. The hospital staff are all very nice,” reflects Qin Xue. The only indifferent one towards her seemed to be Nangong Susu, everyone else had been genuinely nice.

“It seems Gong Yuliang didn’t deceive me,” notes Ye Xiao. He had asked about Qin Xue’s situation in the hospital, and Gong Yuliang had updated him. Seeing Qin Xue now, however, he felt it was more sincere to ask her directly.

“The food here is all the same. Just eat what you like. It might not be as good as home, but please bear with it,” Ye Xiao understands that the meals served in the military aren’t as delicious as the ones he prepares at home, so he tries to prepare Qin Xue ahead of time. Chu Molin had already served in the military before, so he didn’t have to worry about him eating the food there. As a result, these comments were mainly directed towards Qin Xue.

“Okay, thank you, dad,” Qin Xue responds, using Chu Molin’s nickname for Ye Xiao since there were no outsiders present.

“I’ve told you not to worry about it,” Ye Xiao replies with a smile, thinking that she’s a clever girl. She’s much more pleasant than the rascal on the side who constantly calls him an old man and has never referred to him as dad.

“Hehe, okay,” Qin Xue replies, laughing at Ye Xiao’s somewhat resentful gaze. She found him to be quite unlike the stern, authoritative figure he was supposed to be.
