Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 303

Xinyan looked at him and joked directly, "Isn’t this just what you wanted?"

He Jinxuan didn’t expect this girl to not play by the rules: "I was afraid you wouldn’t be happy to hear it."

Xinyan didn’t stop walking: "She wasn’t wrong, we are indeed dating, why wouldn’t I be happy? Isn’t it great, we don’t have to explain it over and over."

He Jinxuan smiled: "You’re right."

Once they entered the courtyard, He Jinxuan set down the basket and helped her remove the burlap sack from it: "What’s this?"

Xinyan thought about the suitcase and laughed: "I came across someone selling a second-hand suitcase. I liked it at first sight, so I bought it. When I go to school, I can just carry this. Although you shouldn’t flaunt wealth when traveling, you also don’t want to be looked down upon."

He Jinxuan untied the burlap sack and carefully took out the suitcase for her: "It’s quite nice, seventy percent new and not too flashy, yet practical."

After putting down the suitcase, he added: "I’ll find some leather oil and give it a good polish for you."

Xinyan really liked the style of the suitcase and nodded: "Sure, this suitcase’s style won’t go out of fashion in a few years, it should be well maintained."

Just as she finished speaking, Xinyan slapped her forehead: "Dang it, I forgot to pick up the tickets."

Xinyan instantly felt downcast; she’s not old yet, how could she start forgetting things?

He Jinxuan watched her changing expressions and amusedly raised his hand to rub her head: "It’s okay, we can head out early tomorrow instead."

Xinyan could only nod: "How could I have forgotten about that?"

He Jinxuan laughed and grabbed the hand she was about to use to hit her forehead: "It’s okay, it’s not a big deal, don’t dwell on it."

Xinyan looked up at him: "Did you call in advance and tell them someone would pick up in the afternoon?"

He Jinxuan was amused by her expression: "It’s fine even if I called, just say you had something to do today and couldn’t make it over, it’s not a problem."

Xinyan gave him a push: "Hurry and call them to explain, otherwise they’ll keep waiting."

He Jinxuan, afraid she’d feel embarrassed, quickly agreed: "Okay, I’ll go now. Don’t worry about it, everyone has those moments when they can’t make it on time."

Xinyan pushed him towards the door, her face slightly flushed: "Alright, stop comforting me. How could I forget such an important thing?"

He Jinxuan confirmed the departure time with her for tomorrow, then left with a smile. He had never seen this side of Xinyan before, quite adorable indeed.

After watching him leave, Xinyan let out a sigh: "This is so embarrassing."

Meanwhile, Han Jingchen was already on the train to Sanyuan City. He couldn’t calm down; if things went smoothly, he could see his daughter tomorrow. But the closer he got, the more nervous he became.

To think that Qiu Jouxuan, who once harmed his daughter, worked at the Mechanical Factory too; truly an inescapable encounter.

Before they boarded, they already received news that Qiu Jouxuan’s eldest son was arrested for illegal gambling, and the second son was dismissed directly for almost causing an accident due to drinking on the job.

Even so, it couldn’t quell the anger in his heart, and from now on, the Qiu Family could only get worse.

Just as he expected, before they even reached the Mechanical Factory, the youngest son’s promotion was canceled, and because of his Big Brother and Second Brother, he was transferred to the toughest position in the factory.

Qiu Jouxuan, upset by the troubles caused by his three sons, had a stroke and was hospitalized, throwing the family into chaos.

With the Qiu Family’s eldest and second sons losing their jobs, and no income coming in, Qiu Jouxuan’s job position became the target of contention for the two daughters-in-law and daughter Qiu Qingmei. At night, when people went out to cool off, they heard the drama of the Qiu Family unfolding.

It was Zhao Jianlan who ran over to tell Xinyan about the drama at Qiu Qingmei’s house. But she wouldn’t sympathize with people like them.

Zhao Jianlan whispered, "The Qiu Family has been really unlucky lately, as if cursed. All the wage earners have had issues."
