Chapter 594: Chapter 595: Act Separately
"Uncle, I’m not going back with you today." Cai Ming said on the way that he wasn’t going to Gong Zhuang’s house with them.
It was reasonable for Gong Ruini and the others to stay at Gong Zhuang’s house, as it was like staying with an uncle, but Cai Ming going there, what’s that about?
Even though the Cai Family might not necessarily welcome him back, he really wouldn’t stay over, otherwise, there would definitely be all sorts of rumors saying how unfilial he was.
His own eldest brother and sister-in-law are the best at creating such trouble, and Cai Ming doesn’t want to help Gong Zhuang bear the blame.
Gong Ruini was actually quite anxious, even though Gong Zhuang said they could stay at his house, who knows how Miao Cuihua would react.
The last time she saw this person, Gong Ruini really felt that Miao Cuihua was quite calculating and didn’t know how things would go this time.
Even though her parents and Zhao Xuran had already analyzed it and said that Gong Zhuang would definitely take good care of her and her brother, Gong Ruini really wasn’t accustomed to living in someone else’s house.
Even when they previously stayed at Zhuge Zhi’s house, they had prepared a yard for them to live in early on, which was really comfortable.
"If staying at home is unpleasant, don’t hesitate to come here." Gong Zhuang knew Cai Ming’s situation and didn’t insist on him staying.
But the situation with the Cai Family was getting worse, and Gong Zhuang really didn’t understand how with such good cards, the Cai Family’s elder could play them so poorly, just like his own mother Zhang Lan.
Cai Ming responded, "I’ll go back and take a look." He actually wanted to go check on Gao Yanan’s situation.
Even though he had received news that Gao Yanan was already married, he truly couldn’t understand why Gao Yanan wasn’t willing to wait just a bit longer.
Even though the college entrance exams were starting soon, Cai Ming knew some things couldn’t be undone just because of his regret and desire for an explanation, but he just wanted to know the reason.
Some things really have no answer, and Cai Ming had no way to let go of this relationship.
Gong Ruini anxiously glanced at Cai Ming, sigh, ever since he got on the train, Gong Ruini noticed something was off with him, but no matter how much she joked or probed, she couldn’t get anything out of Cai Ming.
"Uncle, no matter what, you have to stay calm. You can’t be impulsive."
"Uncle, you still have us."
"Uncle, a good meal isn’t afraid of being late. I believe there will be a girl more suitable for you."
At the time of parting, Gong Ruini hugged Cai Ming, continuously comforting him.
Cai Ming was taken aback, wondering how this girl knew about his intentions, but upon reflection, it made sense, if Gong Ruini didn’t understand his thoughts, she wouldn’t be Ni Zi.
"Don’t worry, I know." Cai Ming wasn’t someone without reason; he wouldn’t ruin two families on a momentary impulse.
"Also, I just want to know how she’s doing." Cai Ming felt that Gao Yanan really missed out on a lot because of him.
If she hadn’t found a suitable good man to marry this time, he really would’ve felt guilty in many ways.
How is she doing? She should be happy, right? Gong Ruini could only hope so, otherwise, if she wasn’t doing well, what could her silly uncle actually do to take care of her?
"Alright, why is such a child considering so much?" Cai Ming looked at Gong Ruini’s small face, which was all tangled up, and found it quite amusing.
Clearly just a child, why worry about so much? "Thinking like that will make you look older."
That’s too much; Gong Ruini was upset. She was genuinely considering things for Cai Ming, but she couldn’t help being dismissed and looked down upon for her worries.
Sigh, since someone thinks of her like that, she might as well not bother then.
"Rui Wen, make sure you take good care of your sister, and listen to her." Cai Ming was indeed worried about Ni Zi and his brother and sister. He’d heard before about how unreasonable Gong Zhuang’s wife was, and how she took advantage of situations.
If he could choose, it would be better to go to the Cai Family, which would show that even though their parents hadn’t returned, their maternal family would care for them. The problem was that the situation at the Cai Family was even worse; Cai Ming didn’t even know what it would be like when he returned, so he wasn’t assured to bring Gong Ruwen and them along.
Cai Ming could only pray that nothing would happen at Gong Zhuang’s house, or else he really couldn’t forgive himself.
"Ah, really going to have to trouble you this time, that Ni Zi is a bit delicate..." Cai Ming knew he shouldn’t say so much, saying too much would only make people feel Ni Zi was manipulative in various ways.
But Cai Ming really couldn’t stop worrying, always feeling that missing any reminder would be bad.
Gong Zhuang really wanted to laugh, but a guy this attentive is really not common, sigh, if he hadn’t been admitted to university, if only there wasn’t so much interaction with Cai Guoqing’s side, it wasn’t like no girls liked Cai Ming.
But unexpectedly, Cai Ming got into university, which really shocked everyone, in such a way, there was no suitable match to introduce to Cai Ming.
"Don’t worry, my niece and nephew, I will take care of them." Gong Zhuang didn’t quite understand his own second brother’s tension over his daughter. Everyone says people prefer sons, but for them, him and his brothers preferred sons. Gong Tao was the exception among them.
"Alright, let’s go back," Gong Zhuang reminded Gong Ruini and the others to go back only when he couldn’t see Cai Ming’s figure anymore, "Your aunt must be worried at home."
Miao Cuihua was anxious at home, clearly they went to the station to pick up people, why hadn’t they seen anyone yet, it worried her half to death.
Miao Cuihua knew about Cai Meina’s pregnancy and that she was due in July. It was impossible for her to make a long trip back, and Gong Tao should take care of Cai Meina, so only the two kids came back.
From Beijing, taking the long train ride back, though she knew Gong Ruini and the others were smart kids, what if something happened?
Just as Miao Cuihua was restless, she heard someone opening the door and immediately ran out, "Is it Gong Zhuang?"
"It’s me." Gong Zhuang really didn’t know what was up with his wife, why wouldn’t she just open the door directly; she had to confirm first.
"Alright, alright." Miao Cuihua pushed Gong Zhuang away, who was in front of her, and the two people behind him brightened her eyes.
"Come back for dinner." From the occasional mentions by Gong Tao about the two children, Miao Cuihua knew they were doing well, definitely smart kids.
And seeing them today, Miao Cuihua was stunned, their eyes were really bright, and there was this dignified aura about them, definitely not something children from a small county could cultivate.
Gong Ruini felt all kinds of embarrassment under Miao Cuihua’s gaze, she really was frightened by the overly enthusiastic eyes, if it wasn’t for her young age now and her parents being around, she’d have thought Miao Cuihua was plotting something against her.
Miao Cuihua also realized her actions earlier were a bit terrifying, potentially scaring people away, but she was helpless. These were two smart and clever kids, why were they all Gong Tao’s, and at that moment Miao Cuihua truly felt regret.
