"Can you tell me now? What secret mission did you carry out?" Ningxia looked at him with scrutiny in her eyes.

Mo Guanshan put away his smile and said seriously, "Our Chuhua country's technology and medical care are far ahead of the surrounding areas. Before the first sprout, the Ant Country had been eyeing us covetously, but due to the huge gap in strength, they didn't dare to act rashly.

After the initial sprouting, they unexpectedly took advantage of the chaos to sneak in a large number of people and committed many crimes in the state capital. They even kidnapped several professors from the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Agricultural Research Center, who are extremely important to our country.

The state government was unable to intercept anyone and had to blow up the shipping route between the two countries. As a result, these Ant people could not go back for the time being and were wandering around the country.

My mission is to find them and rescue the dozen or so kidnapped professors and their families.

The reason you found me, who was seriously injured, in Liefeng was because you found their traces. They were also from the regular army and quickly found me and my teammates. Unfortunately, we were outnumbered and were defeated.

At that time, the disease had just begun to sprout, all communications were cut off, and the news was slow to reach the provincial capital. I had no choice but to rely on you to go into Dawn to recuperate.

This delay lasted two years. Unexpectedly, the state government learned that the professors were still alive. Those experts from various fields are invaluable and cannot be lost treasures to our country.

The news reached the higher-ups of the military stationed in Dawn. Later, I received my mission, and you know what happened next.

I didn't tell you at the beginning because this mission was too special. You would definitely follow me secretly, and I didn't want you to take any risks. Besides,

At this point, Mo Guanshan's face was filled with regret, "When I left, the Dawn Base was still under the jurisdiction of the state government. I thought it was still safe, and the things I left for you were enough for you to live well and wait for me to come back and marry you.

I didn't expect... that the Shuguang regime would change hands. It's not easy for the survivors either. I'm sorry, Ningning, I came back too late."

Ningxia listened carefully and didn't care about his apology. When she first thought about the fact that he left quietly, she would feel a tightness in her chest and couldn't breathe. But as time went by, and she didn't think about it deliberately, her heart was left numb.

"So your mission is complete?"

Mo Guanshan nodded vigorously. "It's done. Unfortunately, two of the professors passed away, but the rest returned safe and sound. It's just that we didn't completely eliminate that group of people; about ten of them escaped."

Ningxia was about to speak when the other party's stomach made a very loud growl.

Seeing Ningxia's gaze, Mo Guanshan's eyes lit up, full of cheerfulness. "In order to rush back, I haven't eaten for two days. I miss you, Ningning. I also miss the food you cooked. In the past two years, I haven't had a full meal."

Ningxia frowned and stood up, "Wait."

Mo Guanshan's smile widened, and he replied obediently, "Okay."

Mo Guanshan devoured the dumplings Ningxia had saved for her and her two siblings' breakfast the next day. He ate with such seriousness that Ningxia finally dared to take a good look at him.

He's pretty much the same, except he's thinner. He has a neat crew cut, thick, stylish eyebrows, a prominent nose bridge, and a narrow chin. Despite his upturned single eyelids, he doesn't look gloomy at all; his features are filled with cheerfulness and generosity.

His eyes were always bright. Ningxia thought back to the years she had known him. He seemed to be always positive, with an upward energy that seemed to never run out.

His face is well-proportioned with three parts of the face and five eyes. Except when he deliberately lowers his eyebrows, which gives people a strong sense of oppression, anyone who sees him will praise him as a sunny and cheerful boy.

Noticing Ningxia's gaze, Mo Guanshan raised his head, swallowed hard to swallow the delicious taste in his throat, and gave her a big smile without hesitation, "I miss you too, Ningning."

Ningxia snorted and turned her head away, no longer looking at him.

"Are you willing to come out?" Ningxia looked at the brother and sister who came out one after another.

Sangsang pouted, said nothing, and climbed onto the sofa to sit down.

"Do the homework. And if you slam the door again, I'll beat your ass."

Sangsang snorted heavily, folded his arms and turned his head away.

"That's all you know. If I don't see you pick up the notebook within ten minutes, you'll know."

Sangsang sat there for a while, and finally compromised and picked up the notebook. It was unknown whether he was thinking seriously or just trying to please Ningxia.

"Hey, Lin Yi! Pour me a glass of water."

Ningxia went to the bedroom and no one knew what she was doing. Mo Guanshan leaned back on the sofa and started to act up again.

"Brother, don't pour it for him!"

"Little Curly, do you want a beating?"

No one knew how Lin Yi and Sangsang communicated, but when she heard Mo Guanshan call her "Little Curly", she stopped jumping up and down and responded loudly, "Squint your eyes!"

Lin Yi handed the water to Mo Guanshan, who took it with a smile and drank it all in one gulp. "Thank you, brother. You're so good."

The man's doting tone was too sincere, and Lin Yi's ears blushed easily. He sat aside and didn't say anything.

Mo Guanshan picked up the notebook Sangsang had set aside and glanced at it casually. "This question... is really interesting."

Hearing the mockery in his tone, Sangsang rushed forward to snatch the notebook back. Mo Guanshan held up his arms to prevent her from reaching it. "Give it back to me! Squinting eyes! You big scoundrel! So rude! So rude! So rude!"

Lin Yi hesitated to speak. Although he could see that Mo Guanshan was just teasing Sangsang without any ill intention, Sangsang was really a vindictive person, and in the end, he was the one who suffered.

He really wanted to have a few days of peace and quiet. At this moment, Lin Yi missed the days when Xiaojie was around so much. He could study very fulfillingly every day, and the irritable Sangsang would also be much gentler.

"What are you two doing?"

Mo Guanshan lowered his arm, looked at Ningxia, and touched his nose uncomfortably. "I think Sangmei doesn't know how to do it, so I want to teach her. But she might be shy... I just came back and want to fit in with the family. Am I a little too anxious..."

Ning Xia rubbed her forehead and said, "Okay, you don't have to teach her. If she can't understand something, except for her brother Xiaojie, she will just listen to what others teach her."

"Squinty-eyed, you're lying again! You're obviously making fun of me! You squinty-eyed villain!"

Ningxia snatched the notebook from the two of them and threw it aside, "You're still shouting?"

"He can call me Curly, so why can't I call him Squinty? You're biased!"

Ningxia looked towards Moguanshan.

The latter's mouth curled up into a beautiful arc, "It's okay, I think the little curly hair is very cute, Sang Mei can call me squinty eyes, I don't mind."

"Just do what you two want, but don't come back to complain to me!" I'm so annoyed by all of them!

"No, Curly just doesn't understand me yet. It will be fine slowly."

"Hmph, big liar, big bad guy, cheating Xia Xia, ugh." Sangsang muttered softly, and finally vomited towards Mo Guanshan.

Mo Guanshan didn't care at all. He leaned his head on Ningxia's shoulder and held her tightly to prevent her from hiding. "I'm so tired..."
