"Commander Chen wants to see you, but I told him that I need to ask for your opinion."
Qiao Qingqing was stunned. "See me?"
Lu Heng nodded slightly, "He probably wants to know how you managed to escape being hunted down."
I believe that Commander Chen is not the only one who is curious. Anyone who has tracked Qiao Qingqing will be puzzled.
Qiao Qingqing refused without hesitation: "I don't want to go."
Lu Heng said calmly: "Then we won't go."
"So, you have nothing to worry about now?" Qiao Qingqing looked at him suggestively, "We won't get into trouble again?"
"Now that the dust has settled, there is not much value in keeping an eye on us. Moreover, since they have obtained something, they have to ensure our safety." Lu Heng said softly, "Before I left just now, Commander Chen had already issued an order to strictly eliminate the spies."
Only when the reward is greater than the effort will one invest without regard for the results.
Neither the spies nor the enemies within the military are fools. Since the two have handed over the information, why would they continue to surround and kill them frantically like before?
After all, now that Commander Chen's order has been issued, he can use the excuse of clearing out spies to secretly protect Lu Heng and Qiao Qingqing.
Killing two people to vent your anger means paying a heavy price, which is really not a cost-effective deal.
Even if they wanted to settle accounts with the two, they would not do it through such an open pursuit or assassination without regard for the cost.
As long as the enemies did not swarm in like a swarm of locusts, Lu Heng's ability was enough to ensure the safety of the two of them.
After taking the reassurance pill, Qiao Qingqing immediately relaxed.
"Then we'll go home tomorrow."
Lu Heng was quite surprised: "Don't you like shopping in department stores?"
He has not forgotten how his wife went on a shopping spree when they were preparing to get their marriage certificate a few months ago.
"That requires us to have money and tickets." Qiao Qingqing glanced at him, "What can I buy with your current allowance?"
Lu Heng immediately heard his lover's disdain for his allowance. He straightened his back and said solemnly, "You are right. I will work hard!"
Seeing his serious attitude, Qiao Qingqing felt embarrassed and muttered, "Hurry up and eat. We've been exhausted these past few days. Now that we're safe, let's find a place to have a good rest for the night and go buy tickets tomorrow morning."
She was in a hurry to go, not only because she was worried that she would be targeted by big shots in Beijing and forcibly summoned from the capital to interrogate her on how she escaped, but also because only by going to Qiongcheng could the two of them rest in peace.
Especially Lu Heng's body...
Lu Heng seemed to understand her worries and fears, and felt guilty, which at the same time further aroused his ambition.
Although he didn't say anything, at this moment, Lu Heng looked at his lover who was trembling with fear because of his humbleness and incompetence, and he had a new ideal!
In the past, his ideal was for the country to be prosperous and strong, and he was willing to devote himself to it.
Now, behind this great ideal, he has another personal ideal: to achieve merit and establish a career!
Only in this way can you protect your loved one from wind and rain, so that she no longer has to worry or be afraid, and no longer has to feel humble and uneasy.
Lu Heng's eyes became firm, and besides the soldier's fortitude, there was also a little selfishness in them.
This selfishness is only for Qiao Qingqing...
Qiao Qingqing didn't even know that she had such a great influence on Lu Heng.
