Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 705
In order to teach Ji Xiaolei a lesson for the future, Ji Linfeng gave Ji Xiaolei a severe beating. After he finished, he covered his face, squatted down, and cried: "It’s because Dad is useless."
Ji Xiaolei originally was a good child, but he often heard Ji Xiaowen talking in his ear about how merciless Han Jingchen and the others were, and over time, some resentment grew in his heart.
Adding to today’s incident and looking at the situation at home, he completely grew to have a grudge against the Han Family.
He thought: My sister was right, our mom was indeed wrong, but after so many years of affection, it was gone just like that. Clearly, with a wave of a hand, they could have spared them from living in hardship, but they showed no mercy to our family at all.
Seeing his father like this made him feel very upset. After all, he was still young and his eyes soon reddened.
When Ji Xiaowen came back, what he saw was a lifeless home and a father and brother who looked dejected.
But however the Ji Family was doing, the Han Family wouldn’t care. No matter how they were living, they believed it was their due punishment.

Once Gu Wanqing had finished fussing over Xinyan, she started to talk about the events of the past.
As it turned out, after she was sent onto the train, she noticed that there were also people watching her.
Yet, when she got off the train and called the military base, Han Jingchen was on a mission and not around. She didn’t tell the military about it, fearing it would affect Han Jingchen’s career, especially since her own family’s side had problems then.
But she never expected that their enemies had dispatched several groups to follow her.
At this critical moment, she happened to meet Han Chunli, who was visiting relatives in Guodong Province. She had heard Han Jingchen mention her before. Although her relationship with Han Chunli wasn’t very good, she thought that since Xinyan was her own niece, she wouldn’t harm her.
She also made the worst preparations at that time, leaving the suitcase filled with valuables with Han Chunli, thinking that if she could luckily avoid those people, it would be best. But in case something happened to herself, those things would be her bequeath to her daughter as a memory and support.
She had thought it through, even if Han Chunli got greedy, she would just take a portion.
But she never imagined that Han Chunli, no, Qiu Chunli, upon seeing that she hadn’t returned, would harbor malicious intentions: she not only gave away her daughter without saying a word to Han Jingchen in advance, but also did something so despicable and shameless in the end.
Once she learned about what Qiu Chunli had done, she indeed wished she could skin her alive and rip out her tendons. How could she, how dare she do such a thing to her daughter.
After everyone had caught up, Xinyan asked, "A few days ago, were you in the south?"
Gu Wanqing nodded, "Yes, I first went to Shanghai, and later, for some matters, went to Guang Province."
Seeing Xinyan nod, she couldn’t help but ask, "How did you know?"
She was very apprehensive, afraid that her daughter would be angry, wondering why she didn’t come back to the Capital immediately after returning to the country. It was indeed due to special circumstances.
Before she returned to the country, she was entrusted by a business partner to bring some medicine back for a relative in the homeland. The medicine was rather valuable, and she had promised to deliver it personally.
So after arriving in Shanghai, she went to Guang Province first.
Coincidentally, there was also a project they intended to invest in over there, so she sent off the goods, signed the contracts, and then hurriedly left her assistant behind to return to the Capital.
Sister Chen had reheated the dishes several times before they remembered that they still hadn’t eaten.
While preparing the dishes, Han Jingchen pulled Gu Wanqing into his room, holding her tightly in his embrace: "Wanqing, this time, after you return, will you leave again?"
Gu Wanqing looked up at him: "Of course, I will leave."
Upon hearing her answer, Han Jingchen tightened his hold around her, feeling so hurt he could hardly breathe: "Did you start a family over there?"
This was something he had wanted to ask for a long time, but with so many family members around, he didn’t dare to.
Gu Wanqing pretended to be angry: "Han Jingchen, do you have that little faith in me?"
As soon as she said this, Han Jingchen lifted her up: "I knew it, I knew it, you wouldn’t abandon me and our daughter?"
Gu Wanqing, frightened, reached out to hug Han Jingchen’s neck: "Put me down quickly."
Han Jingchen did put her down, but when they came out again, it was already half an hour later.
