Transmigrated to a Period Novel as the Genius Antagonist's Birth Mother

Chapter 57: Returning

Jiang Shengnan handed the phone to Chu Xia and walked out of the study.

"Zengnian?"

Cen Zengnian's gentle voice came from the other side immediately, "Chu Xia, today is the Lantern Festival. Did you have soup dumplings at home?"

"We did." For some reason, whenever Chu Xia heard Cen Zengnian's voice, she would feel relaxed. She sat on the chair, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously curved upward.

"What about you? Does the cafeteria at the base have soup dumplings?"

Cen Zengnian replied, "Yes, the soup dumplings are very sweet."

During the Lantern Festival, one should spend it with their family. He felt a slight regret in his heart. He had never spent the Lantern Festival with Chu Xia and An'an.

He looked up at the moon outside and now understood why ancient people used the moon to symbolize their yearning for their loved ones.

Chu Xia smiled and said, "The soup dumplings at home are also very sweet. An'an loves to eat them." The father and son were very similar when it came to their love for sweets.

Cen Zengnian's eyes softened even further. He mentioned the matter he wanted to discuss with Chu Xia yesterday.

"My work may change. I don't know where I will go. It may be even more remote than the northwest, or it may not be."

Cen Zengnian was still hesitant about this matter.

The leader announced that they were preparing to embark on a new project, which represented the most advanced research direction in their field. They would transfer several exceptional young talents from different bases to a central place for research.

The specific location had not yet been determined, but the order had already been given. Even the Space Research Base had to select talents to send over.

Cen Zengnian has been one of the most exceptional young researchers at the Space Research Base in recent years, and he has also been involved in a key project at the base.

Therefore, when the order came, the leader naturally approached him first. Of course, the Space Research Base did not want to let Cen Zengnian leave, but the country always came first.

If Cen Zengnian really didn't want to go to the new project, the leader would continue to look for someone else. Everyone who was able to participate in the project at the Space Research Base was outstanding.

Cen Zengnian merely mentioned that he would take it into consideration.

The leader gave him two days. Today was the last day, and he had to give a reply tomorrow.

Thinking about the leader's words regarding the new project and the most advanced research direction, Cen Zengnian couldn't contain his yearning.

He wanted to go, but he wondered what would happen to his family if he went to a more remote place where communication was impossible.

Cen Zengnian pondered for a long time and still felt that he should reach out to Chu Xia to ask for her opinion.

He already felt guilty for working in the Northwest. If he were to go to an uncertain new work location, he definitely needed Chu Xia's consent.

After listening, Chu Xia didn't hesitate and said, "I don't understand the specifics of your work transfer. You should decide for yourself."

Just like when she was taking the college entrance exam, most people were strongly opposed to it. They thought it was unnecessary to go through all the trouble when she already had a good job.
