When Qin Gang stopped, put on his clothes and was about to leave, Guan Yurong hugged Qin Gang from behind.

She said: "Qin Gang, I thought at first that I just wanted to be with you secretly. I don't ask for too much. I would be satisfied if I could have you for half an hour every day.

But after I was with you, I realized how much I couldn't leave you. I don't even want to be apart from you for a second."

Qin Gang turned around and hugged her tightly in his arms, "Yurong, it's not just you, it's me too."

"So what? You still have to go home to be with your wife. Forget it, you are a family man, I should be clear about our relationship.

Qin Gang, I don't mean anything else. I'm just too depressed and want to speak my mind."

"Yurong, I understand you. After all, you don't even have a real relative around you now. I want to be with you forever. But I..."

He not only has a wife, but also children, and he can't abandon them.

"I know, I understand. Qin Gang, I won't ask you to divorce your wife. On the contrary, I hope your family can live in harmony, peace and happiness. I would feel guilty if you divorced your wife because of me."

"Yurong."

Guan Yurong understood him so well and cared so much about him that she was even willing to accompany him without asking for a formal status, just because she loved him and wanted to give herself to him.

He felt very sorry for Guan Yurong and wished he could divorce his wife right now and be with Guan Yurong forever.

"Yurong, Lanhua has been married to me for more than ten years, gave birth to two children for me, and has been running the household. Even if she has no credit, she has worked hard. I, I can't just abandon her like this."

"I said, I understand you. I'm already satisfied that we can be together. Treat her well when you go home."

She knew that Qin Gang was a man of principles and bottom lines. He couldn't help being with her, and it would probably not be easy to ask him to do something that violated his principles.

"Yurong, you are so considerate."

He kissed Guan Yurong on the forehead and finally left reluctantly.

It was dark when he returned home. As usual, Miao Lanhua prepared dinner and sat at the dining table with her two children waiting for him.

When he saw his wife and children waiting for him again, and the food that was almost cold on the table, he felt a surge of guilt.

Miao Lanhua asked, "Does your army have trouble every day?"

"Yes, I've been quite busy these days. As for what exactly I'm busy with, I can't tell you; it's confidential."

"What about tomorrow?"

"You'll be busy tomorrow, so don't cook for me. Plus, I won't be able to come back on time for dinner in the next few days. Just make your own food and don't leave any for me."

Tomorrow I will be able to get drunk and dream with Yurong in bed.

Miao Lanhua said nothing and nodded.

Guan family

Guan Yurong has been coming home late every day these days. Her family no longer cooks dinner for her, and no one asks what she does outside.

After dinner, Xu Nuannuan pulled Old Lady Guan into her room and said, "Grandma, can you call Grandpa over as well?"

A few seconds later, Mrs. Guan called Mr. Guan over.

"Nuannuan, why did you call both of us here? Is there something wrong?"

Xu Nuannuan knew that the topic they were going to talk about later would be a bit heavy.

"Grandpa and grandma, please sit down. You may not want to hear about this topic, but I think I have to tell you because this matter involves your adopted daughter."

"Yurong."

Mr. Guan and Mrs. Guan did not show much worry on their faces. After what happened with Lin Ruyan, they no longer had any good feelings towards Guan Yurong.

"Nuannuan, just tell me what's going on. No matter when, you and your mother are more important than her. If this matter also concerns you and your mother, you should have thought about what we would do?" Grandpa Guan said as he sat down.

Xu Nuannuan nodded, "Grandpa, this matter is indeed related to my mother, because I suspect Guan Yurong wants to kill my mother, but for some reason she hasn't succeeded yet."

"She wants to kill your mother?"

Both Mr. Guan and Mrs. Guan showed expressions of horror.

Xu Nuannuan closed the door. "Grandpa and grandma, please keep your voices down. Be careful not to let her hear you outside. Actually, if there's nothing wrong with her, I wouldn't object to you continuing to treat her as your daughter. After all, you raised her and have been with her for so long. The relationship between you must be very deep."

After I found out about this, I didn't tell you because I wasn't 100% sure it was her and I was afraid you would be upset. Now I have to tell you."

She took out the paper containing the poison and showed the symbols on it to Mr. and Mrs. Guan.

"I found this piece of paper in the woods of Qingpingwan Brigade. When I picked it up, it was covered with poison. All the birds around it that had eaten the poison died.

There was a murder in the village at that time. I thought it was poison made by the villagers until I came here and found this pattern in a corner of the black market.

Grandma, you must be wondering what I did these days when you were five years old. Actually, I went to the black market. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would worry about me and stop me from going.

The first time I went there was for fun, and I discovered this symbol. I went there two more times after that, but I disguised myself each time I went."

They both sighed.

"If you tell us now, we will be worried too," said Mrs. Guan.

Xu Nuannuan stuck out her tongue playfully. "I've always been very careful. Let's talk about this medicine. After I found this symbol on the black market, I asked around and found out that it was actually a place that sold shady medicines. However, the arsenic sold there was usually used to make rat poison.
