Chapter 470: Chapter 470: Asking for Leave to Return to Beijing

Qiao Shaoguo, seeing the expression on her small face, knew it was likely an issue that couldn’t be resolved unless she returned personally. "Indeed, this doesn’t quite conform to the rules. However, in view of the outstanding contribution you’ve made to our Agricultural Reclamation Group, consider this leave a reward. Are seven days enough?"

Yunyi was very grateful. "That’s enough. Thank you, Qiao Tuan."

Qiao Shaoguo was also a decisive person. He turned and went back to write a leave approval slip and a letter of introduction. "Keep these safe."

Yunyi thanked him again before leaving the Group headquarters.

Once outside, she saw Huo Jingrui, who was waiting. "Why did you come here?"

"To pick you up."

"It’s not far. Why bother coming over?"

"There’s nothing else to do at home. I’ve heated up the food, and it was about time, so I came to pick you up to go back and eat."

"I just asked Qiao Tuan for leave. I’m planning to go back to Beijing for a trip."

Upon hearing this, Huo Jingrui’s eyebrows involuntarily furrowed. "What happened? Do you need help?"

Yunyi looked up at him. "It’s not a big deal. Just now, a neighbor from Beijing called. They said someone came to their door claiming to be a relative, saying he’s my grandfather’s long-lost younger brother. This is actually something I’ve heard my grandfather mention before, so I want to go back and confirm it."

Huo Jingrui sounded a bit concerned. "It couldn’t be someone who found out you’re home alone and decided to show up falsely claiming kinship, could it?"

Yunyi gently shook her head. "My neighbor said the old gentleman has a childhood photograph of them together, so it’s highly probable he truly is my grandfather’s long-lost brother."

Huo Jingrui said firmly, "I’ll go back with you."

Thinking that the earlier she left, the sooner she could handle things, Yunyi agreed.

He did have other matters to attend to, but he couldn’t rest easy with Yunyi returning alone. With him there, he could manage things if any issues arose.
