"Mmm!" Xu Qigang nodded and stepped outside just in ti to see Sheng Ning coming out as well.
"What’s wrong? What happened?" Sheng Ning’s right eye had been twitching continuously, and she suddenly felt a sense of panic in her heart.
"It’s nothing, you go about your business," Xu Qigang reassured her and left.
The two n who had been stopped outside imdiately greeted Xu Qigang as they saw him.
"Captain Xu, this is an order directly from our President," they said.
Xu Qigang returned the greeting, reached for the docunt, and began to read it. As he understood its contents, his deep eyes suddenly darkened, and his relaxed deanor vanished, replaced by a sense of solemnity and cold indifference.
Qin Yue felt a twinge of surprise when he heard it was an order for ng Xingzhi.
"Got it, I understand!" Xu Qigang put away the orders without another word and said, "I’ll pack up and leave imdiately."
"No need for that; the situation is urgent. Captain Xu, please co with us right away." Seeing the Living Yama’s brisk response was a relief; after all, he was currently suspended from duty as a punishnt, and now he was being sent on such a perilous mission—it was natural for anyone to have objections.
And he was newly married.
"Alright!" Xu Qigang nodded gravely.
"You should at least say goodbye to your wife first," they suggested. Despite the urgency, there was still ti for that. They were all shedding blood and tears for the country; if they couldn’t even show this much humanity, it would be too disheartening.
"Thank you!"
"It’s only right."
The n felt awkward about going inside, so they waited outside.
As soon as Xu Qigang and Qin Yue entered the house, Qin Yue couldn’t hold back his urgency and asked, "What exactly happened? Why do they need to urgently pull you away when you’re newly married and currently suspended?"
"S country," Xu Qigang spoke succinctly.
"What? You’re going to S country?" Qin Yue’s voice rose a bit, and Sheng Ning, standing at the kitchen doorway, heard everything clearly.
"You’re going to S country?" Sheng Ning’s heart skipped a beat, and suddenly, things she hadn’t understood before beca clear. She finally knew the inside story of the S country mission from her previous life.
Why Shen Jianguo and the others were able to co back despite being severely injured, under such dire survival conditions back then. So of the older comrades from the Song and Dance Troupe had said that there must have been a master secretly helping or soone desperately rescuing them.
Otherwise, they couldn’t have returned.
And the mission was completed, despite terrible losses and being missing for so long... yet they still completed their mission before returning ho.
So... was the one who carried out this thousand-mile rescue mission the Living Yama?
She hit herself with a pang of annoyance, thinking how foolish she had been. Why hadn’t she understood sothing so simple?
With many in trouble in S country, the only person capable of rescue was the Living Yama; in her previous life, Shen Jianguo was saved by him.
"What are you doing?" Xu Qigang saw her hitting herself and was startled, rushing over in a few quick steps to hold her hand in his palm. "Don’t scare ."
"You’re the one who’s scary," Sheng Ning said with a look of grievance. "Is it the Research Institute’s people who are in trouble, and the President wants you for the rescue?"
Xu Qigang initially didn’t want to tell her, and classified information didn’t permit him to do so either. But this girl was too clever and had quickly pieced everything together.
He nodded, instructing her, "This is classified information, don’t tell anyone, understand?"
"I understand!" She said she understood, but her eyes started to fill with tears involuntarily.
"Why are you crying? I’m not gone for good, am I?" Xu Qigang held her in his arms helplessly, tenderly stroking her hair. If it wasn’t for being at her father’s house, he would have crushed her tightly against himself, kissing her until she was breathless.
