The afternoon arrived as scheduled, filled with the chatter and laughter of the family of three.
It was a month-long separation, after all. Although Qin Fan had often disappeared without warning, the prospect of a thirty-day separation still made Qin Chu and Wei Shuying reluctant to see him go.
Outside No.1 Villa, they watched the helicopter's whirring propellers carry it into the sky. Only after it had completely vanished from sight did Qin Chu sigh with a smile. "After this month, Little Fan will probably be off to school in Jinling. The time we can spend with our son is going to get shorter and shorter! Just thinking about it… I'm still not used to the idea!"
"Children grow up," Wei Shuying said, her gaze still fixed on the empty sky. She shook her head, unable to hide her reluctance. "As parents, we all have to go through this."
