Chapter 1646: Chapter 1648: A Perfect Ending

After waiting so long, another two hours, Chiang Xiao certainly could wait.

With Meng Xinian and Cheng Cheng back at the camp, Chiang Xiao actually calmed down and began to organize her luggage methodically.

“Little, why don’t we go with you?” Chiang Songhai felt a bit uneasy.

“Grandpa, there’s no need. Province X is very far, and we have to reach the village there, where the conditions are unclear and the roads might be difficult to travel. Grandma is not suited for long journeys right now, so stay home and take care of her. Brother Xinian will be with me, so you don’t have to worry.”

Chiang Songhai sighed.

Indeed, with Meng Xinian accompanying her, they should be at ease.

But he still felt a bit uneasy.

Even though Cheng Cheng said that Ah Liu was doing well now, who knows what the reality is?

What if he doesn’t like Chiang Xiao?

What if he doesn’t recognize her? What if he says or does anything to hurt Chiang Xiao?

He just felt distressed, at Little’s age, she had been through quite a lot, having such a mother, who knows what kind of father she would have.

And he felt quite useless, seemingly unable to help her much.

“Grandpa, Grandma, if possible,” Chiang Xiao looked at them and said, “I might bring him back, I hope you won’t mind.”

“Not at all, not at all,” Chiang Songhai quickly waved his hand and said, “If you can, just bring him back, haven’t we agreed? We’ll take care of him, don’t you worry.”

“Thank you, Grandpa and Grandma.”

Chiang Xiao finished packing and sat in the yard waiting for Meng Xinian and Cheng Cheng.

Soon enough, they returned in less than two hours.

“First, we’ll take the train to Province X, then switch to a bus to our county. From the county, we’ll transfer to a car to the town, and from the town to the village, there’s no car, we’ll walk, a full two-hour walk. Can you do it?” Cheng Cheng looked at Chiang Xiao, noting she had changed into practical, durable trousers and swapped her shoes for cloth ones, and was startled.

He then chuckled softly, “Seems I asked too much.”

She was clearly mentally prepared, her actions showing readiness.

A girl who could save him at the border, how could she fear such things?

Cheng Cheng thought more highly of Chiang Xiao.

“Let’s go straight to the train station,” Meng Xinian took Chiang Xiao’s backpack, he too had changed into casual clothes.

Chiang Songhai and Ge Liutao stood at the door, watching the three of them leave, before regaining their focus a long while later.

“I hope Little’s dad will be in good condition and return with Little,” Chiang Songhai said.

Ge Liutao hesitated for a moment, then softly asked, “Uncle Hai, what do you think, if Little’s dad comes back and he’s well, could he and Qingzhu maybe…”

“How could that happen?” Chiang Songhai was startled, “Don’t you know what Qingzhu is like?”

“But, it’s because she couldn’t find Little’s dad all these years, surely she has feelings for him, right? If she and Little’s dad were together, wouldn’t Little have a complete family? With her true dad and mom, isn’t that good? Plus, at that time, maybe Qingzhu wouldn’t be with that surname Kuang and be more reliable?”

Ge Liutao hoped that.

She felt if that were the case, it would be a complete ending.

The family all together, how wonderful.

As long as Qingzhu could change, as long as she left that surname Kuang…

Chiang Songhai was momentarily speechless.
