"It's alright, Xun, you can focus on your mission. Don't worry about me." Li Xiyue was very understanding.

Chu Xun is a soldier, and he should prioritize the country; she understands that.

Chu Xun said, "I'll have Yicheng escort you back."

"No need, don't you know my abilities? Don't worry, I don't need to worry about you... Okay, that's all, be careful."

After Li Xiyue hung up the phone, Chu Xingbang immediately asked, "What did A-Xun call about?"

Grandson rarely calls home when he's on a mission, for fear of revealing his whereabouts. Why did he call home this time?

"It's nothing, they just said they can't come back for the time being and asked me to go back to the countryside alone," Li Xiyue said casually.

Chu Xingbang frowned, his gray eyebrows furrowing. "How can that be? It's not safe for a young lady like you to go back alone. Let Yicheng take you; he's always free anyway."

“Yes, sister-in-law, I’ll take you.” Quan Yicheng said immediately.

Aunt Tian also thought it was the right thing to do; this brat was just sitting at home all day doing nothing, so they had to find him something to do.

If Quan Yicheng knew what his mother was thinking, he would probably cry with anger. He may appear to be idle, but he is secretly doing something important.

No one else knew about this except Chu Xun.

Li Xiyue refused, "No need to trouble yourself. Before I met A Xun, I traveled alone from Jiangsu Province to the countryside in the south for several days and nights by train. Not only did nothing happen, but I also helped the police catch enemy agents. Don't worry, I can take care of myself."

Traveling from Beijing to the southern province, it's such a tiring round trip.

The important thing is that she is much freer on her own, while having someone with her makes things inconvenient and uncomfortable.

Li Xiyue insisted on not letting anyone deliver the package, and the Chu family had no choice but to agree.

Chu Xingbang had originally prepared a lot of things for her to take back, but he didn't let her bring them. Instead, he mailed them to her so that she could travel light and avoid having to carry a lot of luggage by herself, which would be exhausting.

Li Xiyue went to see Liao Qingshan to say goodbye.

Liao Qingshan was extremely reluctant to part with his granddaughter, knowing he might not see her for another year, and he talked to her for a long time.

Li Xiyue noticed that he was in better spirits than before, which must be due to the effects of the spiritual spring water, so she added more spiritual spring water to his water tank.

The same goes for Chu Ruilin's side, and the Chu family has also been using the spiritual spring water for a long time. Although she is far away in the southern province and cannot be supplied with spiritual spring water for a long time, short-term use can still be beneficial to her health.

After leaving the sanatorium, Quan Yicheng took her to a department store, intending to buy some gifts for Huang Xinrui and the others. They bought gifts according to each person's preferences. Just as the two came out of the department store, they ran into He Yuanzhou.

"Sister-in-law." He Yuanzhou was now completely convinced by Li Xiyue. Seeing her was like a younger brother seeing his boss; he was incredibly excited.

Chu Xun used to be an invincible figure in the compound, and only someone as capable as Li Xiyue was worthy of him.

Conversely, only a strong person like Chu Xun is worthy of a girl as capable as Li Xiyue.

This couple is a powerful duo; when they're apart, they're each kings, but when they're together, they're invincible. Who would dare mess with them?

Li Xiyue asked with a smile, "Are you here to buy things too?"

“My sister heard that you were arrested on your death anniversary because of this, so she wanted to buy you a gift to thank you,” He Yuanzhou said with a smile, looking at his sister beside him.

"My name is He Yongmei." The girl, about seventeen or eighteen years old, was dressed neatly and cleanly, and had a lovely smile.

Li Xiyue grasped her hand. "My name is Li Xiyue."
