But even if Qiao Qingqing didn't say it, the Lu family guessed it.
After dinner, the Tan couple tactfully returned to their room, leaving the space to them.
"Qingqing, is there something wrong with Ah Heng?"
It was the old man who spoke first. His expression was serious. When Qiao Qingqing met his gaze, she suddenly couldn't lie anymore.
After a moment's silence, Qiao Qingqing nodded with difficulty.
"I only found out about this when the regiment commander called me that day. They said... Lu Heng had contacted the troops in Shanghai. But now the regiment commander has sent people to look for Lu Heng. Maybe he will be back soon, so I didn't tell you."
Although Qiao Qingqing's words were euphemistic, both Mr. Lu and Lu Zhenfeng, who were also soldiers, knew clearly what the alliance meant.
It is no exaggeration to say that in the past, anyone who went out on a mission, once they had contact with the troops, would either die or defect.
Of course it is impossible for Lu Heng to defect.
So there is only that option left, and it is such an obvious result.
This result was unacceptable to everyone, so much so that even Mr. Lu was stunned for a long time.
Shi Meijun had been married to Lu Zhenfeng for so many years, so she naturally knew some of this crucial information. At this moment, she was sobbing softly and her whole body was shaky.
Qiao Qingqing felt very uncomfortable watching this. She was obviously also uneasy, but at this time she had to force herself to cheer up and encourage everyone.
So Qiao Qingqing helped her mother-in-law sit up and tried hard to make her voice sound normal.
"Mom, let's not panic at this time. If we want to see the person alive, we must see him. If he is dead, we must see... his body."
When Qiao Qingqing reached this point, her throat choked for a moment, so she calmed herself down before continuing.
"If we panic now, what if Lu Heng is still alive? What if he has a chance of survival? As his family, we must be his backers and believe in Lu Heng at all times. Only if we don't fall can we find a way to help him."
Now that the matter has been discussed, Qiao Qingqing has nothing to worry about.
She looked at Mr. Lu and Lu Zhenfeng, "Grandpa, Dad, you are both soldiers. You are more experienced than me in this area. At the same time, you know Lu Heng better. I have already told the head of the regiment that Lu Heng may be hunted by military personnel, which forced him to cut off contact with the troops. Now, let's think about it together. If things are really as I guessed, then what should Lu Heng do now?"
Hearing this, Lu Zhenfeng was the first to come back to his senses.
He said solemnly: "Ah Heng, I will definitely try my best to return to Hai City."
Mr. Lu also calmed down temporarily, suppressed the sadness in his heart, and nodded.
"Ah Heng now knows that only Master Chen can protect him, but Master Chen is in Beijing, and with Ke Wen there, it is naturally less dangerous. So Ah Heng's only choice is here."
"Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that Ah Heng might deliberately stay away from Haishi because he's worried about getting us into trouble."
Qiao Qingqing agreed with their speculation: "The captain and I think so too, so the captain sent people out, on the one hand to meet Lu Heng near Hai City, and on the other hand to go in the direction of Shanghai City to see if they can find any trace of Lu Heng."
Mr. Lu shook his head. "Unless Ah Heng is arrested or reveals his whereabouts voluntarily, it will be difficult to find him."
This is what Qiao Qingqing is most worried about. She couldn't help but murmur, "In this case, Lu Heng will most likely... have to rely on himself?"
