After everyone had dispersed, Ruan Ruan led Commander Gu and Political Commissar Feng back into the house. Seeing that they seemed to have something to say, Director Zhou followed the crowd back inside.

"Uncle, Political Commissar, have a glass of water first." Ruan Ruan poured them a glass of water and then drank one herself. She had cried a couple of times and talked so much, so she was a little dehydrated.

"Tell me what exactly happened. How did Liu Zhaodi know about your relationship with the factory?" Ever since Ruan Ruan proposed to him to cooperate with the military to meet with the factory, and for her safety, apart from a few leaders who absolutely needed to know, not a single word of the news had been leaked. Even when Huo Haoshen and the others came, they all gave the same answer: they were transferred from a factory in another city. Not to mention Liu Zhaodi, a military wife who couldn't read a single word.

"I only found out about this today when she came to see me..." Ruan Ruan recounted what she had said when she came to see her, and what followed, which was roughly the same as what she had said outside earlier. "I suspect that she was gathering information about me on behalf of someone else, and that it was all a spur-of-the-moment thing for her."

"What you said is possible. In that case, you should stay at home for the time being. We'll investigate thoroughly before making any arrangements. If it's really what you think, then we need to investigate Liu Zhaodi properly."

After learning what had happened, Commander Gu and Political Commissar Feng returned to the military headquarters.

Huo Haocheng returned earlier than usual today, probably because he heard about Ruan Ruan's situation in the family compound.

"Honey, I'm so sorry. I've been so busy lately and I've made you suffer." As soon as he entered the room, Huo Haocheng went straight into the bedroom, where Ruan Ruan was leaning against the bed reading a book.

"Why are you back so early today?" She was quite surprised to see the person who came in, thinking that she hadn't seen him for quite a few days.

"Honey, did that Liu guy do anything to you? Don't worry, I'll make sure her man doesn't get away with this tomorrow." Huo Haocheng stepped forward and hugged Ruan Ruan. He felt guilty. His wife had been bullied right under his nose, and he was the last to find out. He deserved to die.

"Don't you know me? Relax, what can she do to me? If we weren't at the military headquarters today and worried about the impact, I would have kicked her away long ago." Ruan Ruan patted his back, speaking words of comfort to him in a smug tone.

"Yes, my wife is the best, but we still need to be careful in everything we do, and we can't be careless, you know?"

"Don't worry, I'll take good care of myself. You haven't eaten yet, have you? Come on, I'll go eat with you." With that, she got up and pulled him to go eat with her.

During dinner, I told him about what happened that day.

"My uncle said he would investigate, but I think after I find out, I still need to see my good uncle-master. Your missions are also important, and you can't stay in the army to protect me forever, so I think it's better to just get rid of her directly."

Ruan Ruan spoke the most dangerous words to him in the most ordinary tone. Huo Haocheng didn't understand when the girl had become so bold. It must have been 520 who corrupted her. It must be.

"Let us know when the time comes, and we'll be with you." He knew he couldn't easily change her mind, but he would stay by her side and face the danger together when she was in trouble.

"Don't worry, I won't go alone. I'll also check on your training results then."

She had already thought it through. Although their team had strong individual skills, they had never done teamwork before. This was a good opportunity to show them their shortcomings.

Don't worry, I definitely won't let you down.

After having dinner with him and washing up, Huo Haocheng couldn't wait to take her to bed, because she hadn't seen him in a long time and missed him terribly.

Before long, the harmonious sounds in the room were so shy that even the dark clouds seemed to be obscuring the moon and stars.

The next day, after Huo Haocheng got up, he didn't go to his squad's training ground immediately. Instead, he went directly to the military headquarters' morning training ground to spar with Commander Zhu. Coincidentally, just after he finished sparring with someone, the Ruan brothers also came over. They all claimed that they had heard of Commander Zhu's great reputation and that it was their fault for not being able to come and meet him after all this time. They said they had some time today, so they all came to spar.

Throughout the morning training, Commander Zhu was repeatedly beaten up by his brothers. They couldn't hit women, but couldn't they hit men? They just didn't expect that a commander's fighting skills were so poor!

However, they were careful not to hurt him too much; they only made him suffer for a few days, and the injuries were all superficial.

The rest of the time is spent waiting for Commander Gu's investigation and for Liu Zhaodi's next move.

Three days later, in the evening, Ruan Ruan deliberately went to find Gu Jingming. She told him that it was the weekend and his school was closed, so she wanted him to go to the city with her to buy some winter clothes. The two talked loudly outside the door, and then went home.

Not long after Ruan Ruan arrived home, the people monitoring Liu Zhaodi followed her out of the military headquarters. In the woods not far from the headquarters, she told the people waiting there about Ruan Ruan's whereabouts.

The next morning, Ruan Ruan and Gu Jingming rode their bicycles towards the city. As soon as they reached the deserted area, they were rushed up by the people waiting for them. They drugged them with sleeping pills, lifted Ruan Ruan onto the bicycle, and left Gu Jingming in the bushes. It wasn't that they didn't want to take him, but taking Gu Jingming would make them too conspicuous. Besides, Viper had only told them to bring the woman back.

"Leave one person behind to take him to the hospital, the rest of you follow, but don't get too close, or you'll be discovered." The soldiers who had been lying in ambush nearby saw that after they took Ruan Ruan away and threw Gu Jingming into the roadside bushes, they left one person behind to take him to the hospital, while the others followed.
