Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg

Chapter 1234: Chapter 1234: Returning to South City

She told the elders that Nangong Chen had left, then watched Little Reunion playing happily with them, and decided not to intervene, opting to go straight home instead.

Once home, there wasn’t much to do for a while. Jiang Xue entered the space again for cultivation. Now, with the existence of an unknown enemy, she needed to cultivate well.

That way, even if they met, she’d have some odds in her favor.

Jiang Xue cultivated for two hours until the phone rang, prompting her to come out. Picking up the phone, she pressed the answer button. The call was from Shangguan Wenbin, asking when she would return to South City.

Now, the company was on track, and samples of computers, mobile phones, and cameras were ready. They were currently undergoing testing, and if no issues arose, they could be mass-produced.

Moreover, they had already received some orders, so there was no worry about finding buyers for the products.

However, since both he and Wang Jun were very busy, they wanted Jiang Xue to return and take charge.

Jiang Xue calculated the time, noting there were only about two weeks left before the end of summer vacation. She indeed needed to return early, and she was worried Nangong Jun and the others might come to Xu City, so it was good to head back to South City earlier.

So, Jiang Xue roughly discussed her plans with Shangguan Wenbin. After hanging up, Jiang Xue originally intended to buy a train ticket. Seeing it was late, she decided not to go but thought it would be the same to buy it early the next morning.

After all, with two weeks left, going back a day early or late didn’t really matter.

However, Jiang Xue had no idea that Nangong Jun and the others would come looking for her the day before she planned to return to South City. If she had known, she would have definitely bought the train ticket tonight.

Of course, unaware of this, Jiang Xue hung up the phone and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner for the family.

With more people at home now, it was lively, and there were more dishes to prepare every day. However, only the variety and quantity of dishes increased, while the portion sizes decreased. This way, if there were more food than needed, leftovers wouldn’t have to be eaten or thrown away.

Jiang Xue specifically reduced portion sizes to avoid waste. After dinner was ready, Jiang Xue was about to go next door to invite her in-laws and parents over for dinner when they came over on their own.

Consequently, Jiang Xue brought out the dishes directly, and the family sat around the dining table. During the meal, Little Reunion was held by Bai Yuhua, who fed him.

However, Little Reunion didn’t like being fed by others and grabbed the spoon to eat by himself. He ate quickly, and Bai Yuhua, worried he might choke, kept asking him to slow down.

Jiang Xue noticed Bai Yuhua focusing on Little Reunion, not even having a chance to eat herself, so she said to her, "Mom, you eat your meal, and I’ll hold Little Reunion."

As she spoke, she took Little Reunion from Bai Yuhua’s arms, watching him while eating herself.

After the meal, Mrs. Jiang and Bai Yuhua went to clear the dishes. Jiang Xue sat on the sofa holding the child and talked to Mu Siwu and Father Jiang about going back to South City.

Upon hearing Jiang Xue planned to return in a couple of days, Mu Siwu frowned and said, "Xue’er, things at home haven’t been arranged yet, and your mom and I need to go back first."

"Oh, in that case, Dad, tell me how many days you’ll need at home so I can buy the train ticket."

Mu Siwu thought for a moment and said, "Two days. Your mom and I will go back tomorrow and return the day after. You can buy a ticket for the day after that."
