Rebirth in school

Hou Guokai, Mr. Hou and Mrs. Zhang were busy for another half an hour.

After packing and preparing everything, they finally had some free time. They really couldn't think of anything else to bring.

I feel like I have brought everything with me. Everything that can be prepared at home has been prepared. Everything is really ready, and all that is missing is the east wind.

After everything was cleaned up, the clock on the wall showed one o'clock and everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

When Hou Guokai tiptoed back to the room, Xiaoju was already asleep.

He picked up another quilt and lay down on the other side, his movements were very gentle and cautious, for fear of waking Su Yue.

But he knew that Su Yue was in the late stage of pregnancy, and it was uncomfortable for her to sleep. She woke up easily and had a hard time falling asleep.

Although he is usually on duty outside and has no time to come back, he has to make 800 phone calls a day to ask about the situation at home.

He was also very worried about Su Yue's recent condition, but he had no choice but to go on duty.

This time, Hou Guokai took a month off, during which he had to stay at home to take care of Su Yue during her confinement.

After working hard for a month, I finally got this vacation.

Alas, nothing is easy. The night has fallen and everyone has gone to sleep.

Qin Siyuan was also lying on the bed resting. In his sleep, he heard the phone ringing.

She took out her phone, looked at the familiar number on it, raised her eyebrows, what the hell was going on when he called her at this hour?

Logically speaking, my mother knows the time in China. It is already past 1 o'clock. Why would she call him at this time?

For some reason, before the call was connected, Qin Siyuan felt as if something big was about to happen.

Holding the phone in his hand, he was a little hesitant about whether to answer it.

At this time, Ali, who was in a certain country, was holding her mobile phone and looking at the number on it.

Listening to the sounds of the lines being connected, my heart was tense as hell.

Jeff, who was standing by, took Ali's hand and patted it gently. Ali had actually turned the machine once.

Now rest in the hotel and take a flight directly to Kyoto tomorrow.

Thinking that I will be able to see my son and future daughter-in-law whom I haven’t seen for a long time tomorrow.

Ali felt that she had to tell Qin Siyuan about what happened between her and Jeff.

Otherwise, when Qin Siyuan comes to pick me up at the airport and sees Jeff, what if he gets angry?

If Siyuan was not allowed to know about Jeff's existence and Jeff was hidden secretly, Ali felt that it would be too unfair to Jeff, as if he was not worthy of being seen by others.

Moreover, make things between the two of you secretive. Once there is a beginning, there will be a future.

It's like if you tell a lie, you have to cover it up with 100 lies, 1000 lies, or even 1 lies.

She didn't want to do that. She and Jeff were both single, and it was only natural for them to pursue their own happiness.

This is something that even the country allows. After thinking about it, Ali still feels that she should call Qin Siyuan.

Tell him about this first and inform him of Jeff's existence. Anyway, he will know about it sooner or later.

If Siyuan was really angry, the worst that could happen was that she would go to the engagement party of her son and future daughter-in-law alone.

Although she had made up her mind to make the call, Ali felt nervous when she actually picked up the phone.

After getting off the plane and checking into the hotel at 8 o'clock in the evening, she has been staring at her phone in a daze.

It has been delayed until now, and it should be one o'clock in China. Ali dialed the phone with a desperate mentality.

Before she made the call, she told Jeff that she would only make this call once.

If Qin Siyuan doesn't answer, let's just let this matter go.

If Qin Siyuan answers the call, tell him about the two of them.

Ali still holds on to a little hope in her heart, what if her son doesn't answer the phone?

In this way, she made the call and was not only responsible to Jeff but also to her son.

Qin Siyuan didn't know about Ali's conflicting thoughts.

Just when Ali thought that the phone would not be answered after ringing for so long, a familiar voice came over.

"Mom, why are you calling me so late?"

Hearing her son's voice, Ali was stunned. She glanced at Jeff beside her in panic.

I really didn't expect that the phone rang for so long. Just when I was about to hang up, my son answered.

Jeff took Ali's hand, patted it gently, and put his hand on her shoulder, silently giving her strength.

Qin Siyuan on the other end was a little confused as he didn't hear his mother's voice.

"Mom, why don't you speak?"

"Could it be that the phone was pressed in the pocket?"

Hearing Qin Siyuan's slightly raised voice, Ali reacted.

"No, Siyuan, I have something to tell you."

"At that time, I thought you fell asleep because you didn't answer the phone."

"I didn't expect that you would answer the phone again on this last try."

"How is it? Did I disturb your sleep?"

When Qin Siyuan heard his mother's question, he looked up at the sky speechlessly. No, to be more precise, he looked at the ceiling and coughed lightly.

"Mom, it's one o'clock in China now, late at night, as long as you can still get through to me, I'm not on a mission,"

"Then I must be sleeping. What else can I do at this hour if not sleeping?"

When Ali heard this, she coughed twice to hide her embarrassment.

Qin Siyuan on the other end had lost his patience and asked directly.

"Mom, please get down to business. Why are you calling me so late? What happened?"

"Don't tell me you bought a midnight flight and now you're in China, and you want me to pick you up?"

On the other end of the phone, Ali, who was a little nervous, became so angry when she heard what her son said that she forgot her previous nervousness.

"Siyuan, what are you talking about?"

"I did exaggerate a bit, but not to that extent. How about I ask you to pick me up at the airport in the middle of the night?"

"I'm calling you at this time because I have something to tell you."

"This matter is my private matter. It's not right to say it's my private matter, but I have to tell you anyway."

"No, I just got off the plane and found a hotel to rest, so I called to let you know."

"If the flight goes smoothly, I should be able to arrive in Kyoto tomorrow afternoon."

Qin Siyuan frowned when he heard it was a private matter. What private matter did he have? He was single and alone in a foreign country.

Wait, single! Qin Siyuan seemed to understand something. With her mother's temper, calling her so late,

I guess he has been hesitating for a long time. Knowing this, his mother might not be able to save face and speak up.

Qin Siyuan raised his tone slightly and pretended to be very surprised.

"Mom, what private things can you tell me?"

"You won't tell me that you want to get engaged too?"

"No, no, my dear mother, please don't join in the fun at this time."

"I'm getting engaged soon. What if you want one too? What should I do then?"

"Should I get engaged first, or should you?"

Ali was so angry at her son's words that she laughed and said aggrievedly.

"Siyuan, what are you talking about?"

"How could I possibly compete with you for an engagement at this time?"

"Besides, I'm old now and I'm not like you young people. Why would you want to get engaged? I'll just get married."

"Besides, we are abroad, so we won't join in the fun at home."

"Since you have guessed it, I will speak openly."

"You also know that it's not easy for mom to work hard alone abroad for so many years."

"I met someone who treated me like a treasure, so I stayed with him."

"His name is Jeff, he is the same age as me, he is a foreigner, and we have been together for more than 10 years."

“I’ve known him since I came overseas and he’s been a great help to me over the years.”

"We just confirmed our relationship. This time when we return to China, he will go back with me."

"I thought, no matter what, I have to tell you, but I'm afraid you'll be angry, so..."

Before Ali could finish her next words, Qin Siyuan took over very naturally.

"So, you didn't just get off the bus. You probably got off at around 7 or 8 in the evening."

"Then, you kept putting it off until now, thinking of calling me. If I answered the phone, you would tell me,"

"If you don't answer, you'll just treat this matter as over, right?"

Ali, who was exposed by her own son, felt somewhat embarrassed.

"Siyuan, don't I want to save face?"

"Look, if you know it, then you know it. Why did you tell me so explicitly? It's so ugly."

"I am your mother after all, you have to give me some face..."
