Rebirth in 1986: Unforgettable Regrets

Chapter 1270: Chapter 1270: Out of My Mind

Jin Yan, after a tremendous effort, finally cleaned Lian Qingyang. Exhausted and panting, she looked at the peacefully sleeping Lian Qingyang and muttered, "Lian Xiaoyang, if next time I get drunk and you don’t clean me up, you’re doomed."

But wait, if she let Lian Qingyang clean her, that scene would be...

Jin Yan shook her head. Even though they were already married, her face still felt a bit thin-skinned. She pursed her lips and said, "Forget it, wouldn’t that mean I got the short end of the stick?"

...

Ever since learning that Tang Jun’s eyes had recovered and he would soon return to Jing City, Tang Zhengde and Zhang Hualian had been eagerly waiting at home, stretching their necks and gazing into the distance, as if this could bring Tang Jun back faster.

The news from Meng Siyu was naturally not false.

But still, Tang Zhengde and Zhang Hualian wanted to see Tang Jun the moment he came back.

After waiting for three days, seeing Tang Jun return safely, Tang Zhengde, a big man, couldn’t help but feel excited.

Zhang Hualian was even more exuberant, pulling Tang Jun up and down to study him, she said, "Xiao Jun, can you see me? What color is the dress I’m wearing today?"

"Purple." Tang Jun grinned widely, opened his arms, and hugged Zhang Hualian, "Mom, I can really see with my eyes now."

"Dad, Sis, Zaozao, Chenchen, Xiao Yang, Sister-in-law."

Tang Jun greeted each of them.

Zaozao and Chenchen both rushed forward happily saying, "Uncle, your eyes have finally healed."

"Uncle." Chenchen quickly climbed onto Tang Jun.

"Great, you’re safe, and your eyes have healed, that’s all that matters." Tang Zhengde discreetly wiped his eyes and said, "I’ll go make something delicious for you all."

Tang Zhengde quickly walked into the kitchen, afraid that if he stood there any longer, his excited tears would start flowing uncontrollably.

"Xiao Jun, your dad and I will make a delicious meal for you; today we’ve invited everyone over for a meal together." Zhang Hualian said smilingly, as seeing Tang Jun had finally calmed her worries.

Although she knew Meng Siyu would not deceive them, it was only now, seeing Tang Jun, that the burden in her heart fully lifted.

They had already discussed with Tang Mingli that once Tang Jun was back, everyone would gather for a meal.

Today, the tables were full. Tang Jun, who just regained his sight, was the centre of the celebration. The courtyard was filled with laughter and cheer throughout the day.

The next morning, Tang Jun returned to the company.

After Tang Yue got up, seeing the empty courtyard, she couldn’t help but ask, "Mom, where’s Xiao Jun?"

"He went back to the company." Zhang Hualian replied, feeling a bit helpless recalling Tang Jun’s words earlier.

Zhang Hualian thought, since Tang Jun’s eyes had just healed, the family should gather together.

However, who would have thought that Tang Jun got up early, and followed Meng Siyu to the company.

Zhang Hualian voiced her reluctance, to which Tang Jun replied, "Mom, I’ve been stuck at home for so long, I was almost growing roots there. Now that my eyes are better, shouldn’t I hurry back?"

So, Tang Jun went back with Meng Siyu early in the morning.

Firstly, he had been away from the company for a long time, and secondly, Tang Jun was eager to see Yuan Yu, very eager.

From the time Tang Jun lost his vision to going to Yun City, quite some time had passed, and he felt like he’d almost mouldered. Therefore, returning to the familiar company, he felt both excited and joyful.

After reporting to his superiors, Tang Jun finished all the tasks he needed to attend to and then went to the infirmary.

"Is Yuan Yu not back?" Tang Jun looked around but didn’t see Yuan Yu, so he grabbed a nurse to ask.

The nurse replied, "Doctor Yuan is back, but she’s gone to the hospital again."

The nurse explained that Yuan Yu had returned to Jing City, checked in briefly at the company, and then left to take care of the injured Xu Qinglang at the hospital.

Tang Jun asked, "But she’ll be back tonight, right? Doesn’t she have to work?"

"Yes, she’ll be on duty tonight," the nurse replied after glancing at the duty roster.

Tang Jun acknowledged this and immediately left, planning to return later that evening.

Tang Jun’s return delighted Cai Yufei and He Ming; their trio was reunited.

"Bro, how about we have a sparring session?" He Ming suggested.

Since returning from Yun City, He Ming had been calling Tang Jun ’bro’ at every opportunity.

Cai Yufei gave him a sidelong glance and said, "You want to get beaten up? I don’t."

Cai Yufei was on guard in case Tang Jun decided to make a move, considering that the three of them would often spar at the slightest disagreement back in the day.

"No time."

Tang Jun waved them off and said, "I have other matters to attend to."

With that, Tang Jun took off running.

Cai Yufei wondered if Tang Jun’s skills had dulled during his absence from training, but who would have thought Tang Jun would leave in such a hurry?

Cai Yufei looked at He Ming, who was equally puzzled, and asked, "Mingzi, what’s up with Xiao Jun? Where’s he going?"

"He’s probably going to see Doctor Yuan, right?" He Ming replied uncertainly.

"What’s going on between Xiao Jun and Doctor Yuan?" Cai Yufei asked curiously, glancing at He Ming.

He Ming shrugged, "How would I know?"

Medical office.

Yuan Yu had just finished her rounds when she saw Tang Jun in the office.

Yuan Yu turned to leave, but Tang Jun asked, "How’s Xu Qinglang?"

"Doing well." Yuan Yu paused for a moment.

Tang Jun continued, "Yuan Yu, even if you’re afraid of me, you don’t need to avoid me, right?"

"Who was the one chasing after me before?" Tang Jun said lightheartedly, looking at Yuan Yu’s back.

"That was a moment of madness."

Yuan Yu’s lips twitched, and she took a deep breath, thinking to herself, this is her office, why should she be the one to leave?

Yuan Yu returned to her desk, sat down and said, "Tang Jun, if you have something to say, just say it directly, no need to beat around the bush."

Tang Jun sat across from Yuan Yu, his gaze fixed on her face. She seemed even more beautiful than before.

"If you have nothing to say, you should hurry back. I still have things to do." Yuan Yu dismissed him coldly, the stark contrast in her demeanor from when she used to chase after Tang Jun.

"Xiao Yu, I think I want to take back what I said before. Are you willing to be with me again?"

Tang Jun’s words were both anxious and expectant, as he looked at Yuan Yu with anticipation.

Yuan Yu maintained her cold expression, showing not the slightest hint of the joy he expected.

Yuan Yu pursed her lips, staring at him for a moment before speaking, "Tang Jun, do you think you’re so charming? When I was chasing after you, you rejected me time and again. Now that I’ve decided to give up, you come looking for me? Who was the one driving me away before?"

"I told you, once I leave, I would never return." Yuan Yu enunciated each word, as if reminding Tang Jun of how decisive he was back in Grandpa Miao’s yard.
