After throwing a tantrum and fawning over her for half a day, she gave him this task.

It really does thank you, and even wants to travel back a few minutes to give its gluttonous self a good beating.

"Yeah, I'm just that ruthless, so you'd better behave and not steal any food."

After saying that, Shen Mu Ning disappeared from the space.

In the blink of an eye, she was already on the bed in the outer room.

I was busy all day today, and even after I got back, I spent so much time cooking on my social media.

In addition, I will be getting up much earlier than usual tomorrow.

So she decided to go to bed early tonight and not practice.

That night, the Johor Bahru brigade was peaceful, and everyone was fast asleep.

Unbeknownst to anyone, Chu Mingxu, who was far away in Heilongjiang Province, had only just arrived at the location of his parents.

Baisha Farm, Fuchuan County, Ganghe City, Heilongjiang Province.

Inside a remote, dilapidated house.

A faint yellow light shone from inside.

Even in the dim light, you can still see the crops standing tall outside.

Although the crops aren't growing very well, the land is large, so the harvest should be quite substantial.

Meanwhile, faint sounds could be heard coming from inside the house.

However, since the nearest house was more than 300 meters away, no one noticed what was happening here.

"Dad, Mom, how have you been lately?"

Chu Mingxu had just sat down when he began to question the two slender figures in front of him.

"We're all fine, we're both doing well!"

The first to speak was Chu Hongyi, whose face was resolute.

"Yes, your dad is right, we've had a pretty good year."

"The food and clothing you brought before were a great help to us."

Upon seeing her son, Chu Mingxu's mother, Yu Ying, excitedly recounted their life together.

Just as she was about to continue her rambling, her husband suddenly interrupted her.

"What's going on with you? Why are you here so soon?"

Although Chu's father was also excited and happy to see his son.

But he was still mostly worried about him not arriving at the agreed time.

I'm afraid something might have happened to him or his parents.

So, before his wife and son could catch up, he asked the question first.

"Yes, it's almost harvest time. Why did you take leave to come here? Is something wrong?"

After being reminded by her husband, Yu Ying quickly snapped out of her excitement.

He immediately asked Chu Mingxu what exactly happened.

After all, he had always come in November before.

Although the areas north of the Lingnan River were already hibernating at that time, the railways and buses were still operating.

That was the best time for him to visit his parents and his second uncle's family.

Anyway, sooner or later, he will come to Heilongjiang Province during that month.

This time, he arrived way too early.

"Mom and Dad, don't worry, I'm fine, and Grandpa and Grandma are doing well too!"

Seeing their anxious expressions, Chu Mingxu quickly explained.

"I came here this time because..."

Fearing that his parents would continue to make nonsensical guesses, he simply explained the whole reason why he had come.

Otherwise, he was afraid they would imagine something else and give him a big fright.

"You child, since you know it's dangerous, why...why can't you not go?"

After hearing his reasons, Yu Ying became even more excited.

Unlike her previous happiness, this time she was angry.

She had never wanted Chu Mingxu to join the army, but he followed in the footsteps of his grandfather and husband and insisted on joining the military.

She was helpless about this.

But I figured I had family members in the military, so I could just take care of them.

As a result, he joined some special forces unit.

Not to mention the danger, his father-in-law and husband couldn't help him and could only let him struggle on his own.

She finally retired after much difficulty, and although she felt sorry for her son, whose hard-earned honors were forever sealed away because of his choice to retire.

But more than anything, people were happy that he had left the army.

After all, who wants their son to live a life where his head is constantly in danger?

"You've already retired, why are you still bothered with these things?"

She just couldn't understand it, since she had already left the army.

If you find something is wrong, just report it.

Let professionals handle these things; why should he interfere?

"Mom, I'm fine!"

Chu Mingxu knew that his mother had always disapproved of him joining the army.

So he let her complain without talking back, and only patted her back soothingly when she stopped.

"Don't try to brush me off. If you had something to do, would you be listening to me ramble on like this?"

He flung Chu Mingxu's hand away, snorted coldly, and sat down on the stool next to him.

"Alright, stop complaining. Our son is quite skilled."

Unlike Yu Ying, Chu Hongyi looked completely pleased.

After all, he knew his son was far more capable than he was.

If it weren't for... his achievements wouldn't be any less than his, it's just a pity.

"Mingxu, you did a great job this time."

Chu Hongyi first affirmed Chu Mingxu's approach.

Because if he encountered someone who would betray national interests, he would make the same choice.

"However, I must remind you that you also have a family to take care of, so you should do everything within your means."

He wouldn't have said such a thing before.

Once you join the army, you're entrusting your life and fortune to the country.

They would not hesitate to sacrifice their lives for their country and die on the battlefield.

But now, he and his second brother's family are trapped in Heilongjiang Province and can't go anywhere.

His parents are getting old and need Chu Mingxu's care, so he can't afford to have anything happen to them.

Therefore, after praising my son, I still need to give him a wake-up call.

To prevent people from recklessly acting without considering the level of danger in the future.

If something really happens, it will be too late to regret it.

"Besides, your grandparents know the reason for what happened this time, right?"

My elderly parents at home, knowing about this, are probably very worried about me in Xinshan Brigade.

"Dad, after I finished my business, I called Jiayang and asked him to pass on the message."

Thinking back to how his grandparents stood there watching his retreating figure after he left, his heart ached.

But given the previous situation, he couldn't simply abandon it.

I can only be an unfilial son and make them worry.

Fortunately, he still made a phone call after both parties involved in the transaction were apprehended.

Otherwise, they might keep worrying until I go back.

However, because Zhang Jiayang relayed the message, they knew they had come to Heilongjiang Province, and that put their minds at ease.

"That kid from the Zhang family, the one you're really close to, the one who's always following you around?"
