Chapter 119 Shock

Gu Yanxiao gently stroked Su Xiangwan's long hair and said, "Originally, I just wanted to meet a commander who had always wanted me to join his team. However, when I went there, their special forces team happened to have a mission. So, after confirming that my physical condition allowed it, the commander made a special exception and brought me into the team. I've been on a mission these past two days."

As for what the mission was, Su Xiangwan naturally didn't ask.

"So, are you sure you're going back to the army?" Su Xiangwan asked.

“Yes, the military region will transfer both of our household registrations to the military region in the next couple of days,” Gu Yanxiao said. “From now on, you can stay in Beijing to take care of your pregnancy without worrying about the Su family’s identity.”

The reason that happened in the first place was because Gu Jianjun and his men took advantage of his injury and withdrawal from the army to devise such a scheme.

Now, he has resumed his identity in the military and has directly joined Chief Huo's camp.

Even if the Gu family wanted to do something, it was too late.

I expect the medals from the military region will be issued by tomorrow morning at the latest.

By then, the Gu family should have received the news!

Just as Gu Yanxiao had predicted.

The next day, when Grandpa Gu attended a military region meeting.

Upon entering the military region, he saw his nemesis, Huo Chang'an, looking smug and triumphant.

He was talking to several senior officers beside him.

After seeing Grandpa Gu walk over, everyone looked at him with a strange expression.

Seeing this, Old Master Gu was taken aback and looked at them with some confusion. He said irritably, "What are you all doing? Are you all staring at me like that? Are you having an attack?"

Feng Yuanzheng chuckled and said, "It seems that Old Gu has no idea what happened!"

Before Old Master Gu could answer, Huo Chang'an chuckled, "That's for sure. After all, he has a group of filial sons and grandsons. There are some things that you don't want him to know, so naturally he... won't know!"

After saying that, Huo Chang'an looked at Old Master Gu with a deeply sympathetic expression, his eyes full of schadenfreude.

Grandpa Gu immediately snorted coldly: "Speak your mind, or shut up. You old man Huo, stop being so coy and fussy, like a woman."

Huo Chang'an, however, remained unperturbed, waving his hand with an air of composure: "Look at you, getting impatient again. You're already so old, can't you change your temper?"

Grandpa Gu: "You know I'm already so old, I'm practically buried up to my chin, what am I supposed to change? Tell me, what happened? Are you all trying to make me anxious?"

Huo Chang'an chuckled lightly, not caring about his temper. They had been comrades-in-arms for decades, so he understood him perfectly: "The meeting is about to start. You'll find out when it does!"

After saying that, seemingly afraid of being bothered by Old Master Gu, she turned and left.

Grandpa Gu was taken aback. He was about to turn around and grab Feng Yuanzheng to ask him a question, but he didn't expect that the other party was also very shrewd and had already slipped away before he could react.

Watching his group of old buddies, as if bullets were chasing him, they all ran away and dodged him.

Old Master Gu was both angry and anxious, but he just couldn't do anything about it.

I was just about to ask my correspondent to find out, but now it's less than half an hour before the meeting.

Since they all say that we'll find out when the meeting starts, let's just wait and see!

Don't make it sound like Old Gu really has no self-control at all.

However, once the actual meeting began, Old Master Gu completely overturned this idea.

What kind of composure?

Screw your self-control!

"Bang!"

Old Master Gu slammed his hand on the table, his eyes filled with suspicion, his face contorted in disbelief: "What did you say? Who? Who received a second-class merit? Gu Yanxiao? Which Gu Yanxiao?"

“Old Gu, what are you saying? Who else is Gu Yanxiao? Of course, it’s your eldest grandson, Gu Yanxiao!” Feng Yuanzheng lifted his eyelids and said casually.

"What?!"

Old Master Gu, who was standing, swayed and almost fell to the ground.

"Old Gu..."

Huo Chang'an, who was sitting next to him, quickly reached out to support him.

We've been old buddies for so many years, fought side by side on the battlefield, and were once comrades who could entrust their backs to each other.

Although over the years, due to differing camps and Mr. Gu's overly stubborn behavior, they have often clashed.

But all of this is in order to better contribute to the country.

If this old man Gu really gets a stroke from anger and something bad happens to him...

They won't forgive themselves either.

"No...it's nothing..."

After sitting down, Old Master Gu waved his hand weakly, looked at Feng Yuanzheng, and asked, "You said Yan Xiao was awarded a second-class merit, when did that happen?"

Could it be that this is an award for the merits I made before?

That doesn't make sense! Didn't he try to attribute all the merits Yan Xiao had made to Yan Feng?

Otherwise, given Yan Feng's abilities, how could he possibly have participated in these months of intensive training?

“Yesterday.” Feng Yuanzheng didn’t intend to hide anything from Old Master Gu and said, “Comrade Gu Yanxiao joined Chief Huo’s special forces team two days ago. He perfectly completed the mission during a secret operation and was awarded a second-class merit for his outstanding performance.”

"Special Forces!" Old Master Gu gritted his teeth, glaring at Huo Chang'an beside him with eyes that seemed to want to tear him apart: "How did Yan Xiao get into your special forces? His body isn't..."

"Oh, he contacted me a few days ago after having surgery to remove the bullet from his body, expressing his desire to join my special forces team. I naturally welcome such an outstanding talent as Comrade Yan Xiao. So, just two days ago, after completing all the procedures, he happened to come across this mission and went."

For a moment, Old Master Gu couldn't help but wonder if he was hallucinating due to his age. He understood every word they said, but put together, why did it give him the feeling that the world was so absurd? "The bullet... was removed? What... when did this happen?"

Impossible!

That's impossible!

Wasn't the bullet in Yan Xiao's body right next to his heart?

If the surgery hadn't been risky, how could he have left the army so recently? This led to the later situation where the eldest son's family severed ties with them.

Even if he changed his mind after going to the countryside and decided to have surgery to remove the bullet from his body, how could he not tell his grandfather!
