Neither of them went out again today, they have been busy in the manor.
The two of them bought a lot of things yesterday, and because Mu Hengyu was unwell after he came back, they didn't take out all the things to sort out, so the two of them were extremely busy today.
Around two o'clock in the afternoon, Mu Hengyu, who was supposed to be taking a nap, was particularly energetic today. He looked at the time and said to Jiang Li, who was packing children's clothes.
"Is it time to go?"
Jiang Li looked up at the clock on the wall and said.
"It's so urgent. Their flight leaves at 3:30. They have to go through some security checks after they get off. It's estimated that they won't be able to get out until 4 o'clock. Do we have to go so early?"
Jiang Li could tell that Mu Hengyu was very anxious. In fact, he looked at his watch from time to time throughout the day and felt that time passed so slowly.
"Aren't you afraid of traffic jams on the road? I heard that the road conditions in Manchester City have never been very good."
"Okay, just tell me if you are in a hurry to get to the airport. Make up these reasons. There is an expressway from the manor to the airport. It will take more than half an hour to get there. I will pack up here and set off with you."
Seeing that his idea was seen through, Mu Hengyu could only nod in agreement.
Jiang Li looked on and snickered, but didn't bother to point it out.
After staying up until three o'clock, after Mu Hengyu urged him more than ten times, the two finally got in the car.
Jiang Li glanced at Mu Hengyu, who was a little excited, and said with concern.
"Are you feeling well?"
Mu Hengyu was in good health all day today, except for a brief moment of discomfort in the morning. Jiang Li was worried that he would have an attack on the road.
Mu Hengyu shook his head and said.
"Don't worry, it'll be fine. If it doesn't work, I'll be waiting for you in the car."
Seeing this, Jiang Li could only nod in agreement.
Because there were a lot of people to pick up today, Jiang Li specially chose a seven-seater commercial vehicle, and because Mu Hengyu's health has not recovered recently, so of course Jiang Li occupied the driver's cab.
The journey was smooth, Jiang Li raised his eyebrows proudly.
"Mr. Mu, the road conditions in Manchester City are not bad."
Mu Hengyu was admiring the scenery outside the car, but when he heard Jiang Li's words, he coughed and choked.
Then, hearing Jiang Li burst into laughter, Mu Hengyu's face suddenly changed slightly, looking embarrassed.
"Have you laughed enough?"
"Hahaha, enough laughter, enough laughter, Mr. Mu, are you men so obsessed with saving face? Can't you just say something directly? You have to beat around the bush."
"Humph, are you happy?"
"hehe!"
Jiang Li smiled again, turned around, and saw Mu Hengyu glaring at her with a resentful look on his face. She tried her best to suppress her laughter and said.
"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. Don't I think I'm afraid you'll get tired after waiting for too long at the airport?"
"snort……"
Mu Hengyu snorted arrogantly, then turned his face away.
Because the road was smooth, the two of them arrived at Manchester Airport in less than half an hour.
After checking the flight information, the plane hadn't landed yet, so the two simply found a coffee shop and ordered two cups of coffee.
When it was close to four o'clock, Mu Hengyu's cell phone rang, and he immediately picked it up.
"Hey, Hengzhe, are you out?"
"Well, I just got my luggage and will be out in a while."
Mu Hengzhe's voice came from the other side of the phone. After hearing this, Mu Hengyu said with a slight smile on his face and his eyes staring in the direction of the exit.
"Okay, Ahri and I are right at the exit."
"Okay, see you later."
After that, he hung up the phone. Mu Hengyu clicked on this song and stood there, looking forward to it.
Suddenly, he felt his hand being held by a soft little hand. He glanced sideways and smiled slightly.
"Are you OK?"
Jiang Li looked up at Mu Hengyu. Just now she felt that Mu Hengyu's body was shaking a little, so she held him worriedly.
Mu Hengyu shook his head and said.
"I'm fine, I'm just a little nervous."
"Nervous, why are you still nervous? Aren't those your parents?"
Jiang Li looked confused. How could he be nervous when meeting his parents?
Mu Hengyu smiled slightly, with a trace of bitterness flashing in his eyes, and said.
"I haven't seen them for more than half a year, and I had no contact with them for six months before that. Every time I come back after a mission, what I'm most afraid of is seeing the worried looks on their faces, and I feel very unfilial."
Mu Hengyu thought that over the years, he often lost contact with his family because he often went on missions. At this time, his family would be on tenterhooks every day.
Although he received support from his family when he chose such a career, now that he thinks about it, this is actually a kind of selfishness on his part. He chose to pursue his dream, but ignored the feelings of his family who cared about him the most.
Hearing this, Jiang Li didn't know how to comfort him. After all, Mu Hengyu's profession was very sacred, but from the perspective of family members, no one wanted their family members to be put in danger.
Selfish.
Finally, Jiang Li said something.
"It won't happen again. Haven't you already decided?"
When Mu Hengyu heard this, his eyes darkened again, and a trace of disappointment flashed across his face.
Jiang Li knew Mu Hengyu's unwillingness. She could feel that Mu Hengyu loved this profession. If it hadn't been for this incident, he might have continued this belief.
Mu Hengyu was silent for a moment, then sighed softly.
"It's okay, at least I have indulged myself for so many years. Even if I still want to persist, my body no longer allows it. Rather than retreating to the second line, it is better to say goodbye when I am at my most glorious."
After Mu Hengyu said this, he breathed a sigh of relief. This was the best choice. As someone who once stood on the front line, he would never be able to stand the comfort of staying at the rear every day, listening to the loud military songs on the front line.
Jiang Li held Mu Hengyu's hand tightly, leaned his head on Mu Hengyu's shoulder, and said.
"No matter what you do, I will be with you."
Jiang Li doesn't know how to comfort. All she can do now is to accompany and support silently.
When Mu Hengyu heard this, his face gained a touch of tenderness, he tightened the hand held by Jiang Li and said.
"Thank you."
"Thanks……"
"Brother, sister-in-law, this way..."
Just when Jiang Li was about to speak, a familiar voice came from the distance. The two looked up and saw three adults pushing a luggage trolley. One of them, a middle-aged woman, was holding a small child in her arms.
baby.
When Jiang Li and Mu Hengyu saw this, they stepped forward almost simultaneously.
Ever since Mu Hengyu told his family that he would get the certificate from Jiang Li when he returned, Mu Hengzhe immediately changed his tune.
At first, Jiang Li was a little uncomfortable with it, but Mu Hengzhe refused to change his words. Gradually, Jiang Li got used to this title.
"Xiao Zhe, Dad, Mom, it's been a hard journey."
Mu Hengyu stepped forward, looked at the three dusty people, and finally cast his eyes on the little guy in Mrs. Mu's arms.
Mu Hengyu stretched out his hand, but he was a little nervous and just stared at this little guy eagerly.
The little guy might have been sleeping on the plane, and his eyes were hazy and drowsy at this time, but after seeing Mu Hengyu opposite him, he seemed to recognize him, and he hummed in Mrs. Mu's arms, like
What does it express?
Mrs. Mu finally saw her eldest son after more than half a year, and he was still standing in front of her alive. She immediately stepped forward and hugged Mu Hengyu.
"Why have you lost so much weight? Woohoo..."
As he said this, he couldn't help crying.
The scene suddenly became a bit chaotic. Several people immediately came forward, some supporting Mrs. Mu, some taking the little one in her arms, and some comforting her.
"Mom, didn't I stand in front of you properly? Stop crying. Look, everyone around you is looking this way."
Mrs. Mu didn't care and said while twitching.
"Let them see it if they see it. I see my son is excited, right?"
"Okay, okay, but let's get out of here first, okay?"
Mu Hengyu had no choice but to understand his mother's mood, but this place was really not a place to relieve her emotions.
Mrs. Mu nodded, and then her eyes fell on Jiang Li next to Mu Hengyu. Without saying anything, she gave Jiang Li a big hug.
"Thank you, kid. Thank you for saving our family."
Mrs. Mu's enthusiastic behavior made Jiang Li a little at a loss. She had not felt such enthusiasm for a long time.
Over the years, Jiang Li has no shortage of friends around her. Feng Xiao and Lei Yan can be said to be her closest friends, but what these people give her is more of a life-and-death friendship.
But now, Mrs. Mu looked at Jiang Li like an elder looking at a junior, her eyes full of concern, love and pity.
Jiang Li seemed to feel the long-lost maternal love. Yes, the moment Mrs. Mu hugged her, Jiang Li seemed to have returned to the feeling of being held in her mother's arms when she was a child.
Jiang Li's nose was slightly sour. She held back the tears rolling in her eyes, showed a slight smile and said.
"Auntie, these are what I should do."
Jiang Li spoke softly. She didn't want to take credit. Even when she first decided to go to Mailai City, she never thought about how she would interact with the Mu family in the future. Her only thought was not to let anything happen to Mu Hengyu. That's all.
That's all.
"Okay, mom, sister-in-law, let's leave here first, there are too many people here."
Mu Hengzhe saw his mother hugging Jiang Li and letting go. As for the eldest brother on the other side, he had already snatched the little guy from his arms, so he could only step forward aggrievedly.
Mu Chengyou on the side was still calm, but the expression he looked at Mu Hengyu still showed a hint of excitement. He looked at Mu Hengyu holding the little guy and teasing him, and he was full of relief. This family has finally cleared up after the rain.
.
"Dad, this period of time has made you worried."
Mu Hengyu held the little one in his arms and looked at his father, who had not seen him for several months but was much older. Even though Mu Chengyou dyed his hair black, the vicissitudes of life on his face could not be concealed.
In fact, when Mu Hengyu applied for the military academy, Mu Chengyou didn't agree with it, but he still respected his son's choice after all.
