Chu Molin looked at Qin Xue’s resisting expression, thinking this must be something that left a deep impression on her, but worms were indeed disgusting.

However, he had seen far more disgusting things so these worms were really nothing to him, but since his wife had a problem with it, he decided not to mention it again in the future.

Chu Molin ignored the angry stare from Qin Xue, smiled, and picked up another dumpling to eat.

Qin Xue didn’t bother arguing with him and quietly ate her own breakfast.

After they finished their breakfast, Qin Xue packed up the remaining dumplings.

She then cleaned the pots and dishes, while Chu Molin was kneading dough and Qin Xue prepared the vegetables. She wasn’t sure when her mother and brother would arrive, so she had to prepare these things in advance.

This way, as soon as they arrived, they could start cooking without having to wait for too long.

At this time, Li Dabao had finally arrived at the train station, and he did not know Qin Xue’s family members either.

So, he held up a sign that he had prepared in advance.

The sign read: “Picking up Nangong Shulan and Qin Yu”, as he patiently waited at the exit of the station.

When the train arrived and people began to come out, Li Dabao held the sign high up so that he could not miss the people that Mr. Chu had told him to pick up.

As soon as Nangong Shulan and Qin Yu stepped out of the station, they saw the sign bearing their names.

“Mom, someone came to pick us up.” Qin Yu turned to his mother and mentioned.

“Why would someone come to pick us up? As far as I understand, Molin and Qin Xue should not know that we are coming.” Nangong Shulan looked up and indeed, those were their names.

“Mom, I think dad might have sent a telegram to Sis and her husband, telling them we were coming.” Qin Yu thought that that was the only possible explanation.

“Well, that indeed sounds like something your father would do. Let’s go over, we don’t want to keep him waiting too long.” Nangong Shulan, noticing Li Dabao’s military uniform, guessed that he was likely the one her son-in-law had sent to pick them up.

“Hello comrade, 1 am Qin Yu, and this is my mother, Nangong Shulan.” Qin Yu introduced themselves to Li Dabao.

“Hello, Auntie, I’m Li Dabao, the Deputy Director asked me to pick you up. The car is over there, let me help you with your luggage.” Li Dabao was watching the two people walking towards him, wondering in his heart whether they could be the ones.

To his surprise, they really were the ones. Now he could finally accomplish the task given to him by his superior.

Once they were all in the car, Li Dabao started the car and headed back to the research institute.

“Comrade Da Bao, is your work very busy? Is it hard?” Qin Yu had also once wanted to do research, but due to certain family circumstances, he hadn’t pursued it.

Now, having the chance to visit the research institute, he felt like his dream had come true.

“Not really, I don’t think it’s hard at all.” Li Dabao replied with a big smile.

Even though Chu Molin was an ice-cold person who didn’t like to talk or laugh much, those who worked with him were quite the opposite.

An instant silence fell in the car. Looking through the rearview mirror, Li Dabao saw that Nangong Shulan and Qin Yu’s expressions were calm. They were not upset because no relatives came to pick them up.

This relieved him. It seemed that these were easygoing people to get along with.

Li Dabao was pleased that his superior had such a family.

They kept quiet all the way to the research institute. After registering, Li Dabao led them straight to Chu Molin’s house.

A knock on the door was heard. Chu Molin got up to answer it, certain that his mother-in-law and brother-in-law had arrived.

Opening the door, he saw that they were indeed the ones: “Mom, Xiao Yu, you must be tired. Come in and sit down.”

He also shouted towards the kitchen: “Xue’er, Mom and Xiao Yu are here.” Chu Molin invited them in, took the luggage from Qin Yu and placed it properly, then took the luggage from Li Dabao who was following behind.

Upon hearing the knock, Qin Xue’s heart started racing, and when she heard Chu Molin’s call, it skipped a beat..
