Su Yuanyuan already knew how they met, and also knew she had promised to take care of the two children until they were adults.
"I can do this. It’s not a problem to attend school here.
But, sir, you need to think it through. Things aren’t exactly peaceful now."
"Cough, it’s far better than a few years ago. The kids aren’t young anymore. I sent my son abroad to study back then. After returning, he started working. It’s been over ten years without any news from him.
I’m old, and I don’t want these two children to spend their lives in the fields.
I believe things will get better. You can’t do without an education."
Su Yuanyuan nodded, "You’re absolutely right. Since you’ve decided, I’ll arrange schools for the children.
What’s your name? Tell me everything. Also, what level of school can you attend?"
"Sister Yuanyuan, I’m Li Hongyun, seventeen this year. I want to attend high school. I’ve already looked at the high school textbooks. Although there’s a lot I don’t understand, I plan to start from high school."
"Sister Yuanyuan, my name is Li Shaoguang. I also want to attend high school. I’ve reviewed the high school curriculum and believe I can get into high school as well."
Su Yuanyuan nodded, knowing from their hearts that they had a good relationship.
"Alright, I’ll send someone to take you to visit the school tomorrow. Graduation is approaching, so you’ll just have a look for now. I believe an exam will be required over there.
Even if you pass, you won’t be able to attend until after the New Year."
Both nodded, as they already knew.
After finishing, Su Yuanyuan looked at Li Hongxiang, "Sir, I will arrange everything for the two children. If they don’t pass the high school exam, they’ll go to junior high.
As for accommodation, you can stay at my house."
Li Hongxiang shook his head, "Xiao Su, that’s not necessary. I have money, help me buy a house. I’m old, but I still have some skills. I won’t go back to my hometown, I’ll stay here to care for them."
"Alright, no problem. But for now, you can stay at my place."
With everything clarified, "Let’s eat. Once we’re full, we’ll head back.
I still have work and can’t stay home. I’ll have my secretary take care of any matters."
"Xiao Su, where are Xiao Tan and the three kids?"
Su Yuanyuan realized it was the Li family genuinely concerned about them. "The family of four disappeared. It’s been nearly four years, and they haven’t been found."
Hearing Su Yuanyuan’s words, the chopsticks fell from Li Hongxiang’s hand.
"Disappeared?"
Su Yuanyuan nodded.
At this moment, Li Hongyun, teary-eyed, held Su Yuanyuan’s hand.
"Sister Yuanyuan, don’t be sad."
Su Yuanyuan nodded, "Okay, it’s nothing. Don’t cry. Let’s hurry and eat; it’s getting late."
Originally, it had been a long time since they’d had this hotpot, but after hearing the news, everything tasted bitter.
Su Yuanyuan felt quite embarrassed because of her the three of them were in a poor mood.
After the meal, Su Yuanyuan drove them home.
The temperature here was much higher than in Jiangbei, and they were already accustomed to Jiangbei’s climate. So, even though the room wasn’t very warm, they didn’t feel cold.
"Here’s the beddings. Don’t be shy; I’ve tidied up. All the food is in the kitchen.
I won’t be able to visit you before tomorrow evening, but I will have my secretary confirm the school situation with the kids tomorrow." She reassured the elder.
The appointed time was past nine to pick her up, and it was nearly time.
"Xiao Su, thank you."
"There’s no need to thank me. It’s something I can manage, and if I couldn’t, it would be out of my hands."
In the car, Su Yuanyuan instructed her secretary to arrange the school visit for the next day, then closed her eyes to process the day’s news.
This Li Hongxiang seemed rather capable. Considering what he said about his son, he should be a researcher?
Su Yuanyuan suddenly felt impressed by the young lady’s abilities. She managed to save such people. Maybe it was destiny that brought them together. Imagine if no one had saved them, what would have happened to an elderly person who wrongly died and two young kids?
Let’s check it out. If his identity is confirmed, there should be a focus on nurturing these two kids and treating the old man well.
One mustn’t disappoint people. They must miss their family back home so much, the elders and children alike.
Su Yuanyuan returned directly to her residence, and after the morning meeting the next day, she reported the situation to Zeng Zhenqing.
"Leader, could you help find out where that couple is?"
"Xiao Su, that’s a matter of protocol."
"Leader, even with the protocol, if possible, could they at least send a message of safety to their elder and children?"
"This kind of message can’t really get through. I will investigate and inform you if they’re alive, and you can relay that to the seniors and children."
Su Yuanyuan nodded, feeling deeply upset, and vowed in her heart to be good to the Li Family’s three generations and ensure the children’s development.
May those two couples contributing to the country one day return, grateful for the country taking care of their family.
The secretary has already made arrangements for the children today; she’s unsure about how it’ll turn out. She plans to visit again tonight.
Currently, Su Yuanyuan really didn’t want to leave. It’s too troublesome, and she suspects that outings will only become more problematic in the future.
Zeng Zhenqing has already informed her that bodyguards have been arranged for her.
This truly means no freedom. Just thinking about it feels dispiriting, worsening her mood.
Today’s work was particularly busy, including files from countries she disliked the most.
Her temperament really wasn’t suited for this job.
She has pondered this issue herself. Perhaps it’s because of the protagonist’s halo?
Glancing through their applications, Su Yuanyuan felt herself getting impatient.
Recently, she specifically applied to study the enemy’s language, and every midday two translators would come to teach her.
Lu Chengmin even joked, asking why she wanted to learn this.
"Leader, I’m thinking of using their language to curse and deal with them in the future."
They truly admired this young woman who detested evil. They had become cautious and foresighted as they aged, losing youthful passion.
"Leader, you possess the prudence and insight we lack."
"Haha, I like hearing that. By the way, there’s a joint meeting this July. How about you attend it? You might realize your wish then and criticize those you dislike at will."
Su Yuanyuan shook her head, "That time won’t work. I wouldn’t go anywhere during that period."
Lu Chengmin nodded, "If you don’t go, I’ll have to attend." He didn’t console Su Yuanyuan, as such pain couldn’t be comforted with words. One can only slowly heal.
