Tang Jianye turned sharply toward the car where Tang Yue was. He thought he was hallucinating. How could this be? How could little Yueyue be in such a remote military region? But his gaze fell on the car window that was rolling up, and Tang Yue's little head was peeking out a little bit.

Tang Jianye threw the log on the ground and waved wildly at Tang Yue's car. Oh right, he remembered. The South Island was conducting cold-weather training in their military region. It seemed that Yueyue had come here for training.

He will go find Xiaoyueyue after he rests for a while.

"Tang Jianye, what are you doing?" The battalion commander's reprimand came over, and Tang Jianye smiled and immediately bent down to pick up the log and continue training.

Tang Yue was somewhat displeased that Sun Jinan dared to roll up the car window. "Company Commander, he's training. This will affect him."

Tang Yue pursed her lips, indicating she understood. However, she hadn't trained for very long, and she had indeed acted impulsively just now.

Tang Yue was assigned to a separate dormitory room. She had just finished unpacking and went downstairs when she saw Tang Jianye standing in the snow.

"Hi, Tang Jianye."

Tang Jianye was clearly delighted. "Little Yueyue, it really is you! Haha, that's wonderful!"

Both of them were very happy. "Come on, I'll take you to the cafeteria for lunch."

Tang Jianye said this and then pulled Tang Yue away. When Chang Yin came down, he saw two figures, one tall and one short, walking towards the canteen. Sun Jinan stood behind Chang Yin and asked, "Battalion Commander, who are those people?"

"Tang Jianye!" Chang Yin said only a few words.

The two walked towards the canteen, with Tang Jianye constantly introducing the area to Tang Yue. "Little Yueyue, have you ever been to the snow mountain? There are still many prey on the mountain in winter."

Tang Yue could tell that Tang Jianye had just returned and was really missing the feeling of hunting in the mountains. It wasn't a big deal, and it wasn't impossible for him to go if he wanted to.

"Hmm, I've never been. It sounds pretty exciting."

Tang Jianye smiled, revealing a set of bright white teeth, and the two entered the cafeteria. "Little Yueyue, wait for me, I'll go get the food."

After bringing the food back, Tang Jianye sat down opposite Tang Yue, who said, "Let me take your pulse first."

Tang Jianye deftly handed over his hand, his voice low, "Ever since I took that pill you gave me, I've felt incredibly healthy. It hasn't affected me at all."

Many checks were conducted at the port, but no problems were found.

Tang Yue was still worried, so she carefully used her spiritual power to examine the area, but she couldn't find anything wrong. "Hmm, she looks quite healthy."

Tang Jianye felt more relieved. Thinking of Lai Xiang's situation, Tang Yue asked, "Do you know anything about the farm here?"

Tang Jianye paused in his eating. "What's wrong? Do you know anyone on the farm?"

It's freezing cold here, so a farm isn't a good place to go.

"Yes, an older sister came to this farm to work as an educated youth."

Tang Jianye almost choked on his food. A young girl coming here to be an educated youth? But he had recently learned about the current situation in China, so there must be something going on.

"Do you need my help?"

Tang Yue looked up at him. Indeed, it would be wonderful if Tang Jianye could help. After all, she could only stay here for a short time, and if Sister Lai needed anything, she wouldn't be able to help her.

Is it convenient?

Tang Jianye waved his hand, "What's inconvenient about it? Your sister is my sister... wait, how old is your sister?"

Tang Yue thought for a moment, "Around 20 years old. I don't know the exact age."

Tang Jianye looked at Tang Yue with a complicated expression, but then, after a moment's thought, he asked Tang Yue, "Little Yueyue, do you know how old I am?"

Tang Yue looked at him. "Hmm, in her early twenties, I guess." Yeah, that's it, Tang Jianye sighed inwardly. It seems this older sister isn't Yueyue's biological sister; she must have met her somewhere else.

"Okay, I'll have someone ask her what her name is later."

Tang Yue was surprised that Tang Jianye agreed so readily. Seeing Tang Yue looking at him with suspicion, Tang Jianye glared at her, "What? You still don't trust me? We're sworn brothers, your business is my business. Don't worry, I'll definitely handle it perfectly for you."

Tang Yue smiled with satisfaction.

There was no training today. When Tang Yue returned to her dormitory, she ran into Chang Yin outside the building. "Battalion Commander."

"Yes, we have news from Lai Xiang."

Tang Yue hadn't expected it to happen so quickly. "Ah, what happened?"

Chang Yin's expression was somewhat heavy. "After Nie Youyu's case was confirmed, his wife, Wu Jinghui, was also investigated. It was confirmed that she knew Nie Youyu's identity and had been protecting him for so many years."

Nie Qianwen, Nie Yongfei, and Nie Yongliang genuinely didn't know their father was Japanese, but since they shared half-Japanese blood, they were not immune to this fact.

"Lai Xiang had nothing to do with these things, but she lived in the Nie family for many years, and eventually she lost her job at the department store. After several investigations and no problems were found, she returned to her parents' home in Northeast China."

Lai Xiang's mother, Wu Jinghua, and Wu Jinghui are sisters, so Lai Jiaxing was inevitably implicated. Previously, some people with differing political views had manipulated things, and Lai Jiaxing was framed for having connections with spies.

"Although there was no concrete evidence, the kinship could not be denied, so they were sent down to the cowshed of Yiwa Production Brigade of Farm 597."

"Lai Xiang, she volunteered to go to the countryside to be an educated youth, probably so that she could take care of her parents."

Tang Yue took a deep breath. Sister Lai is so brave. But it's also too difficult. Tang Yue knew how difficult it would be for a young woman, a educated youth without any connections, to survive in a place like this.
