Yes? Xia Ningxing was stunned, obviously not expecting him to leave again.

If it were a normal time, forget it, but now that she is pregnant with his child, she desperately needs his company psychologically.

Xia Ningxing instantly felt that her throat was astringent, as if she was being tightly pinched by a huge hand, and opened her mouth with difficulty to ask, "Where are you going this time?" How long to go? ”

"An island research institute may take a year and a half." Lu Tingli showed a wry smile as he spoke.

He doesn't want to go if he can, but the organization needs it, and sometimes he can't resist.

"It's okay, you go." Xia Ningxing knew his dilemma, and he also knew that he had to obey the arrangement and work for Xingyao's development, so he smiled at him with a look of understanding.

It's just that the hand that is holding the newspaper has already crumpled the newspaper tightly into a ball, showing the sadness and reluctance in her heart.

A year and a half is not a day and a half, how could she not be sad after such a long separation!

"Are you angry?" Lu Tingli sat beside her, staring at her reaction.

"Nope." Xia Ningxing lowered her head and replied to him in a sullen tone.

Lu Tingli couldn't see it, he couldn't help but reach out and gently pinch her face: "It's all like this, and he said that he was not angry, and he was duplicitous!" ”

"No, no, no!" Xia Ningxing's mouth stiffened, and he turned his head aside to ignore him: "This is your job, I respect and understand, how can I be angry, but I am a little reluctant to ...... you"

At the end of the voice, there was obviously a hint of crying.

As if this crying cavity had been discovered, Xia Ningxing immediately stopped his lips, gritted his teeth gently, and stopped making a sound, so as not to let him find out.

"Why are you still crying?" Even though she restrained very quickly, she was still caught by Lu Tingli, and he hurriedly held her face nervously and wiped her red eyes.

"Didn't cry!" Xia Ningxing glared at him: "Don't slander me." ”

"Okay, I didn't cry, but I just got sand in my eyes, right?"

"That's right! That's it! ”

Lu Ting couldn't help but smile and hugged her into his arms: "You can't bear me, and I can't bear you, Ning Xing, how about going with me?" ”

He suddenly proposed, and then said: "This island is a very good place for people to recuperate, and it is very suitable for physical recuperation or pregnant women's fetus, and if you go there, the condition should be eased up, and there is the best medical team there." ”

"Can I go then?" Hearing this, Xia Ningxing's face turned cloudy in an instant, and he looked at him with blank eyes.

Of course she wanted to stay with him if she could.

Even though he has to work during the day, as long as she can see him in one day, she is already satisfied.

Lu Tingli leaned down and kissed her white cheek: "Of course, the organization allows family members to follow, but the background and experience will be investigated." ”

The reason why it is so strict is that it is worried that there will be gangsters or spies who will take the opportunity to infiltrate the inside.

"It's okay." Xia Ningxing hurriedly shook his head.

Xia Ningxing's background is very good, so as soon as this follow-up application was submitted, the organization immediately agreed that she could follow Lu Tingli into the island together.

And considering that she is pregnant, they are also allowed to bring an extra nanny or maid to the family.

After Grandpa Lu heard about this, he immediately asked Mother Wu from the old mansion to go with them.

He said earnestly to Xia Ningxing: "Once when your grandmother and your aunt were pregnant, they were all raised by your aunt Wu, she is experienced, and when she gets there, she will definitely be able to take care of you and the child properly, and I can rest assured." ”

As soon as Xia Ningxing heard this, he immediately refused: "Grandpa, this is not good, if Mother Wu goes with us, what will you do?" ”

Wu's mother has been a nanny in the old house for decades, and the old man is probably used to washing and cooking by her, if he is suddenly transferred, how can he adapt to it!

The old man waved his hand: "I'll be replaced by the old man and find a new nanny." ”

"But can you get used to it?" Xia Ningxing was extremely worried, and her beautiful eyebrows were frowned together.

The old man waved his hand, sighed and said in a nostalgic tone: "People who have even eaten tree roots before, why can't they adapt to it?" ”

The meaning is obvious, the roots of the tree have been eaten before, and even if the new nanny's craftsmanship is poor, he can still eat.

"But......" Xia Ningxing wanted to say that others should enjoy happiness when they are old, how can they live the hard life they once had, but before they could say anything, they were interrupted by the old man.

"Okay star, it's decided, if you prevaricate and refuse, my heart attack may recur, old man!" As he spoke, he covered his heart, as if he could faint at any moment.

Xia Ningxing: "......"

You don't have a heart condition at all! What about recurrence?

"Grandpa is also kind, don't refuse him." Lu Tingli gently patted Xia Ningxing's shoulder and persuaded her to accept it.

How could Xia Ningxing not know that her grandfather was kind, cared about her, and didn't worry about her, she couldn't help but sigh and took the old man's hand: "Grandpa, thank you." ”

Her eyes were full of gratitude.

The old man patted her hand and smiled kindly: "Xingxing, if you really want to thank me, then remember to take care of yourself and your children." ”

Although Tao Tao also wants to give him a great-grandson, it is undeniable that in his heart, he still values the child in Xia Ningxing's belly the most.

Xia Ningxing nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, grandpa, I will definitely take care of myself and my children." ”

"Good, good, good, grandpa believes in the stars." The old man smiled, obviously very pleasant.

After packing up the things and saying goodbye, Xia Ningxing and Lu Tingli went to the Island Research Institute.

This research institute is dedicated to the study of spacecraft that can go to space, and is currently working on Xingchen-2.

The reason why it is called Xingchen No. 2 is because Xingchen No. 1 failed, so there is No. 2.

To get to the island base, you need to take a boat.

In front of the dock, the leader was already standing there.

After seeing Lu Tingli and Xia Ningxing coming, the leader immediately stepped forward and stretched out his hand to Lu Tingli: "Lu Tingli, hello." ”

"Hello." Lu Ting shook hands with them without humility or arrogance, and did not show any flattery or timidity because of their official position, but was very calm, as if he was the official one.

After a few pleasantries, we were finally able to get on board.

Lu Ting, Li Xia, Ningxing, and the leaders were alone in a cabin, and the table in the cabin was decorated with melons, fruits, warm milk, and other things.

"Lu Tingli, and Miss Xia, you're welcome, just eat." The leaders said.

"Thank you." Lu Tingli and Xia Ningxing replied in unison.
