Chapter 361 The Pen Falls
Chu Mingzhou's celebration banquet was originally scheduled for October 20th, but after this incident, it was postponed.
He was a new official who made three big moves upon taking office and cleverly uncovered the enemy's strategy. Now he is directly stationed in the rear and serves as the commander-in-chief of this enemy defense.
The situation where the enemy was in the dark and I was in the light was perfectly reversed.
Lin Anan resumed work the day after she was cleared of all charges.
The couple stayed at their posts and fought back in perfect harmony.
It should be said that even if they really went to the black market to purchase, it is not a major incident. If it is a first-time offender, the most they will receive is verbal education and criticism.
However, it was indeed a great achievement to find out the White Sparrow organization, which has been rooted in China for a long time, through this coincidence, and to unite multiple provinces to attack it.
Cheng Jiefang and his group were all arrested, but Zhou Yuzhen was finally released after being interrogated. She was indeed an uninformed person, and Cheng Jiefang chose her as his wife because of her identity.
Zhou Yuzhen was the once-prominent commander of the Border Communications Battalion and the widow of Gao Tianli.
It’s a pity that after all these years, Cheng Jiefang still couldn’t get anything out of her.
Gao Tianli's death was caused by a leak of information by an enemy spy, who was from the White Sparrow Organization.
When she learned the truth, Zhou Yuzhen fainted several times and almost collapsed...
Aunt Chu went to the Military Region General Hospital to see her, accompanied by Lin's mother and Lin Anan.
The ward was filled with a pungent smell of disinfectant. Zhou Yuzhen curled up on the bed, looking lifeless.
There was reluctance in Aunt Chu's eyes, but she was no longer as kind as before.
Zhou Yuzhen heard the voice and looked over. Her empty eyes fell on Aunt Chu's face. She paused for a moment, then suddenly burst into tears and laughter, "Mom, Mom! I..."
"Don't call me mom. I can't stand it."
Aunt Chu sat down on a stool nearby, and the atmosphere in the room instantly became solemn.
Lin Anan glanced at Zhou Yuzhen. The person in front of her no longer had the precious look she had when they first met. She seemed to have aged by ten years in an instant.
Lin Anan whispered to Aunt Chu, "Aunt, I'm going to do the prenatal checkup first. You guys can chat. My mom is waiting at the door. Call her if you have anything."
"Okay, An An, go ahead."
"Um."
After leaving the ward, Lin's mother stood up immediately and said, "An An, let me accompany you to the prenatal check-up."
"No, you stay here. I'm familiar with the hospital. I have to go find Gu Yan after the prenatal check-up." Lin Anan pointed to the ward and lowered her voice. "Although Zhou Yuzhen has been released, she is still under surveillance. My aunt is old, and I'm worried about her being alone here."
Mother Lin thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, then I'll watch over you here, you just be careful."
"I know."
As soon as Lin Anan left, Zhou Yuzhen struggled to get up, and with a bang, she knelt firmly on the ground, almost crawling to Aunt Chu's feet by supporting her legs.
Aunt Chu moved her hands, then clenched them into fists and did not help her.
"Mom, I'm sorry, I really didn't know it would be like this... I'm sorry to Tianli, it's all my fault..." Zhou Yuzhen said as she broke down in tears.
"Back then, I was introduced to Jinshi without knowing what was going on..." As she spoke, she raised her hand and slapped herself fiercely, "I was blinded by greed. I always thought I was different from ordinary women. Even if I was married for the second time, I could still meet such a good man. I was so foolish!"
Aunt Chu opened her mouth, and all her reproaches turned into a sigh.
"Mom, I know I was wrong, really, please forgive me, please."
Zhou Yuzhen's eyes were filled with grief. She was released, but she had to work in the Great Northern Wilderness for three years and would not stay in the Northwest.
At this moment, she felt really uncomfortable and felt that she had let the Gao family down...
Aunt Chu waved her hand and took out a document from her pocket. "Get up. I am old, but I am not confused. I am not here to listen to your apology today. I just want you to sign this."
Zhou Yuzhen took the document and almost collapsed to the ground. "Severance of relationship? Mom... I am Cheng'er's mother!"
"Yuzhen, sign it. I don't want to say any more reproaches. You know more about life than I do, and you understand everything you should know."
Zhou Yuzhen's fingertips were tightly gripping the broken letter, and the edge of the paper made a slight crisp sound under her trembling strength.
The wall clock in the ward ticked, and every tick seemed to strike her heart.
"Mom, I beg you..." Her voice was filled with tears, and her knees were rubbed painfully on the hard tiles. "I have neglected Cheng'er over the years. He is still young and cannot live without a mother..."
Aunt Chu turned her face away, and there were traces of moisture in the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.
"Yuzhen, when Tianli sacrificed himself, you left without hesitation, and I never blamed you." Her voice was hoarse, and her Adam's apple rolled with difficulty, "Even now that you come to snatch Cheng Ge'er, I have never blamed you.
You ignored Cheng Ge'er for so many years, and now you want to kill him! You keep saying that you are sorry for Tianli, but in fact you just lost your current support and feel a little lost. "
Zhou Yuzhen felt like she was struck by lightning and collapsed to the ground.
"There are some things I won't say anymore. It's too blunt and it will make neither of us look good. Just sign this letter of severance and don't see Cheng'er again. Just do yourself a favor and let this poor child go."
Zhou Yuzhen burst into tears and regretted her decision.
Over the years, she was immersed in the gentle paradise woven by Cheng Jiefang, but she didn't know that the man beside her had his hands stained with blood, and she didn't know that her identity had become a cover for the enemy.
"Okay, I'll sign."
A piece of paper breaks off the relationship, and the pen falls into a strife.
Lin Anan's prenatal check-up went very smoothly. She is already five months pregnant. Her belly is not big, only slightly bulging. Her overall condition is pretty good, and there is no problem with the prenatal check-up results.
When they arrived at Gu Yan's office, Lin Anan knocked on the door.
"Come in."
"Brother Yan, I'm here."
Lin Anan smiled and greeted Gu Yan.
Gu Yan nodded lightly, put the documents on the table aside, and motioned for her to sit down.
"Everything was normal during the prenatal checkup. I just had a slight cough and an itchy throat recently due to the change of seasons, but everything else is fine."
Gu Yan took the prenatal examination report and took out a stethoscope from the drawer. "Don't be careless when a pregnant woman coughs. Let me listen to the lungs first."
"Oh, okay."
Lin Anan took off her coat, and when the stethoscope was placed on her back, she subconsciously shrank.
"Have you been busy lately?"
"Fortunately, it's just ordinary work, and my diet and daily routine are normal."
"Well, turn around."
"OK."
The stethoscope fell on Lin Anan's chest again.
Looking closer, Lin Anan discovered that Gu Yan's complexion was very bad, with deep fatigue between his eyebrows and eyes, and his lips were very pale, as if he had been seriously ill.
"Brother Yan, are you sick?"
Gu Yan's hand paused, "No."
