Ruan Qingling replied, "Mom, I'll go there sooner."

She mainly enjoys spending time with Song Shiting now, so she wants to spend more time together.

So, every time Song Jiyi brought it up...

Ruan Qingling readily agreed, but did not take any action.

...

Ruan Qingling bought a fish and planned to make boiled fish for lunch.

With only two people, what to eat is relatively simple.

There are no man-made incidents; in such a small place, they are usually just minor disputes.

These days, Song Shiting has had a lot more free time, so he comes back on time to help Ruan Qingling cook.

But no sooner had he left than a car pulled up in front of the police station.

Xiao Jiang had just come out when he learned that the person who came was looking for Song Shiting.

He said, "Director Song has gone home."

Where does he live now?

Both were unfamiliar faces, and Xiao Jiang hesitated for a moment when faced with their questions.

"We need to see him, please lead the way." The other party's tone was firm and left no room for argument.

Xiao Jiang noticed that although the other party had a serious expression, he still seemed to have a righteous air about him.

He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take you there."

Ruan Qingling stood beside the boiler.

Song Shiting reached out, picked her up, and put her aside.

"I'll take care of it."

Ruan Qingling said, "The chili peppers are already in the bowl. We'll add them when the fish soup is ready."

Song Shiting nodded: "Okay."

Recently, Song Shiting has felt his weight increasing.

Song Shiting stood by the pot with a spoon in his hand, his nostrils filled with the fresh aroma of fish.

Ruan Qingling said, "This is how you should eat boiled fish—it's flavorful and delicious."

Song Shiting glanced at her.

She felt familiar, yet suddenly seemed like a stranger.

He didn't even know where the current Ruan Qingling came from.

He never believed in ghosts or spirits, but ever since he realized that Ruan Qingling was not the same Ruan Qingling he knew, he prayed that she wouldn't be taken away from him.

Seeing Song Shiting suddenly looking at her with a deep gaze, Ruan Qingling asked, "What's wrong?"

Just as Song Shiting was about to speak, he heard a car stop at the door, followed by a knock.

Song Shiting said, "I'll go take a look."

Ruan Qingling took the spoon.

As soon as the door opened, two people were standing outside.

The other party was dressed in casual clothes, and Song Shiting recognized one of them.

He was involved in the incident involving Song Ling.

When Song Shiting saw that the people had arrived at the door, he wanted to invite them into his home.

But he was rejected.

"We won't go in. Come to the car, we need to talk to you about something."

Ruan Qingling waited for a long time but Song Shiting didn't go in.

She came out to check the situation.

There was a car parked in the open space in front of the gate.

There was a person standing outside.

There were clearly people in the car.

What confidential matters can't be discussed inside the house?

Why must we talk in the car, and have someone else watch outside?

Ruan Qingling stopped and did not go any further.

The person standing outside saluted Ruan Qingling without saying a word.

Ruan Qingling nodded and turned to go back inside.

"...What do you think? Are you willing to accept this mission?"

Song Shiting remained silent and did not answer immediately.

"You know a lot about Song Hongyu's affairs. The cases related to him are complicated and require several steps to uncover the hidden teams behind them. The organization needs you to consider this matter. This is a letter for you."

Song Shiting took it, opened it, and glanced at it.

The letter Ma Zhengping gave him.

The letter meant that he should consider that this was a big mission, and he wouldn't be able to get ahead if he stayed in a small place like Sanli Town.

Go on a mission, and you'll have a legitimate reason to be transferred to a bigger place, where you'll have more opportunities.

Of course, Song Shiting could choose not to take this opportunity. He already has a good family, and with his previous experience, he could easily get promoted.

But Ma Zhengping felt this was an opportunity.

Song Shiting asked, "When do we depart?"

It's best not to now!

"The organization would like to hear your opinion on this matter first. If you are willing, just wait for further notice."

Song Shiting nodded: "I'll go."

"Okay, then I'll head back now. You take care of what you're doing and be ready to respond at any time."

As Song Shiting opened the car door, the other person behind him said, "This mission is a bit dangerous. The higher-ups will make adjustments to the specifics of how to proceed. I'm just giving you a hint."

Song Shiting simply hummed in response.

The car drove away.

Ruan Qingling heard the door close and looked up at Song Shiting.

Song Shiting walked over to the table.

Ruan Qingling asked, "What's wrong? Why are you so serious?"

Song Shiting looked at her, a relaxed smile playing on his lips, and explained, "There's a mission they want me to participate in."

Ruan Qingling asked instinctively, "Is it dangerous?"

Song Shiting said, "Every mission contains elements of danger, so there's nothing to worry about."

Hearing his tone, Ruan Qingling sensed danger and said, "Should we reconsider?"

Song Shiting placed the letter on the table and said, "This is an opportunity. After this mission is completed, you can be transferred directly there. After all, it's difficult to achieve much in such a small place."

He can't expect to stay in this place forever.

Ruan Qingling could tell that Song Shiting had already made a decision.

She could only purse her lips.

Since he wanted to go, she supported him.
