"You're back? That's good. Where's your wife? And the others? Are they alright?"

Two people got in and closed the car door.

"Fourth Brother, let's go. This is a bit unexpected. I need to go back and discuss the next steps with the old man."

Yang He immediately suspected any connection to the old man was related to conspiracies, and his attitude turned serious.

"Alright, then you guys sit down, let's go now."

After staying up all night, I know without even looking at the clock that it's definitely getting late.

“Going back now would definitely scare my parents.”

Qin Qinghuai felt sorry for the old man for a second; he only stayed at home for two nights, and he still had to put the old man through a lot of trouble.

"There's nothing we can do about it. We have to deal with this before they realize what's going on. Once it's light and everyone has realized what's happening, there will probably be a lot of wrangling around."

"I don't understand this. You guys discuss it. If you need me to send it back, then let me know. Otherwise, this thing is a ticking time bomb in my hands."

"Okay, go upstairs and rest when we get home. I'll go talk to Dad. But I feel like we probably won't be able to leave tomorrow."

Simplicity doesn't matter; her mission this trip was seafood. Now that she's got the seafood, met the people, and bought Cheng Chao's roast duck, there's nothing else she cares about.

"It's alright, let's get down to business first. We've already discovered it, we can't leave this potential problem unresolved."

Yang He only understood half of what he heard, and couldn't help but ask,

"Um, I wanted to ask, is what you're saying the same thing I'm thinking about?"

Qin Qinghuai explained simply,

"I found something at the Peng family's house. It's not just a simple case of robbery. I'll go back and tell the old man."

Fourth Brother, don't go back. Just rest in the guest room for a while. It's so late, don't go back and cause any more trouble.

Although Yang He didn't live in the military compound, he was familiar with the Qin family over the years, so he didn't stand on ceremony.

"Okay, I'll send word that I have something to do tonight, so I won't go back and bother."

Realizing that the matter was related to the military, Yang He consciously changed the subject.

"Now that you mention it, I really am craving Aunt Xu's wontons."

"Fourth Brother, are you hungry?"

Yang He didn't say anything, but instead simply turned his gaze towards Qin Qinghuai. Qin Qinghuai was taken aback.

Are you hungry too?

He nodded simply and pitifully.

That's right. We ate dinner tonight, and it's been at least six or seven hours since then, which is half again as long as the interval between meals. It was simple and required a lot of physical exertion, so of course we're going to be hungry.

"Okay, I'll make you some wontons when we get back?"

"Hey, are you two pretending I don't exist?"
