Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 706

Gu Wanqing followed Han Jingchen like a newlywed bride entering her husband’s family for the first time.

Seeing everyone seated at the dining table without starting to eat, she felt a bit embarrassed, but having seen the world outside, she quickly composed herself.

Everyone was indeed very curious, but all pretended to be unconcerned, chatting and laughing as usual.

Gu Wanqing sat next to Xinyan, who immediately handed her a glass of water: "Have some water first, Sister Chen just took the dishes to reheat, we can eat shortly."

She only intended to help Gu Wanqing relax a bit, but unexpectedly, the moment the words were out, Gu Wanqing’s face flushed red.

The reason was nothing; she herself felt guilty like a thief, having misunderstood.

She finished the water Xinyan gave her in a few gulps, and only after realizing did she feel a bit embarrassed.

But she noticed that her lips were not as swollen as before, and couldn’t help but touch them with her hand.

Little did she know, seeing this action, both Han Chunxue and Su Aihong burst into laughter internally, thinking it was a clear sign of what had happened.

As experienced women, they naturally understood that the two couldn’t have done anything outlandish in front of everyone, but expressing their feelings in a subtle way was still possible.

So Gu Wanqing’s little gesture undoubtedly confirmed everyone’s suspicions.

Only after Sister Chen brought the dishes back to the table did everyone start chatting while eating.

Gu Wanqing didn’t see Granny Zhang at the table, so she asked, "Where’s Aunt Zhang?"

Xinyan smiled and picked up a shrimp dumpling for her: "Granny Zhang just came back from the hospital and needs to rest well, her meals are prepared separately for the next few days, and she’s resting in her room now."

Han Jingchen naturally knew what she meant and picked up her favorite lotus root slice for her: "I’ll accompany you later."

Gu Wanqing nodded with a smile, "Okay."

Su Aihong looked at one, then at the other, unable to hold back: "Wanqing, what’s your plan for this return?"

Gu Wanqing glanced at Han Jingchen beside her: "Sister-in-law, I’ve been longing for so many years, and finally, I can return to the country. Of course, I want to reunite with the two of them.

However, in a few days, I still have to fly back to the United States."

Su Aihong was about to ask again when Gu Wanqing said, "A while ago, my father had surgery and is in recovery, so I came back first to see how a certain someone is doing now."

The implication was clear: if that certain person was still waiting, she would rush back, but if he had let her down, it would naturally be a different story.

Han Jingchen’s eyes were full of tenderness, usually a serious man, now his eyes were bright, never leaving Gu Wanqing.

Even the two new daughters-in-law of the main house envied their love.

Nineteen years of persistent waiting, now everything was worth it.

Gu Wanqing looked at Xinyan: "I heard you speak English very well, would you like to go with me to meet your grandparents? They’ve always felt guilty towards you."

Back then, Gu Wanqing was followed by those enemies who wanted to capture her to threaten the old couple of the Gu family. But Gu Wanqing, a determined person, would rather die than be their hostage.

In a critical moment, she had prepared for the worst, not wanting to become a tool used against her parents and husband.

Fortunately, the Gu couple made arrangements, and at the last moment, those secretly arranged people found her and took her away.

At that time, the situation was indeed urgent, and there was no way to go back for the child, fearing their return would bring trouble, and moreover, Gu Wanqing had just given birth not long ago, her body severely exhausted, and she was semi-conscious.

The Gu couple thought that since the child was handed over to the Han Family, there would be no problem. If they couldn’t leave this time, Han Jingchen would likely be in trouble too, and it could implicate others in the Han Family as well.

Thus, Mr. Gu decisively made the decision to leave.

Over the nineteen years, many pursued Gu Wanqing, but she refused them all, not hiding her married status and the fact that she had a daughter.

All these years, she had been hoping and waiting, just for the day she could return to the country.

But when she asked Xinyan this, Han Jingchen’s heart was in turmoil, and he directly stared at Gu Wanqing: "I want to go too."

Gu Wanqing glanced at him, teasingly saying, "Can you even go abroad with your identity?"
