Seeing Huo Rufeng coming back, Zeng Qingqing also missed her old Xu, and hurried home. Only Shen Anan and Huo Rufeng were left in the yard.
After the two sat down, Shen Anan poured Huo Rufeng a glass of water and they chatted about family matters. Soon, the topic turned to that matter - that mysterious research team.
Shen Anan asked tentatively: "Rufeng, I heard that a research team came to our side, do you know who they are?"
Huo Rufeng nodded and took a sip of water. "That's true, and I escorted this team here."
Shen Anan’s eyes lit up, and a glimmer of hope surged in her heart: “Then you know they…” She didn’t finish her words, but the meaning was already very clear.
And Huo Rufeng also saw Shen Anan’s expectations, but he could only shake his head: “Anan, the confidentiality level of this team is very high. Although I am an escort, I can’t access the core information.”
Shen Anan's eyes dimmed.
But she also knew that Huo Rufeng would not lie to her, and it was probably really difficult to contact him.
What should I do to find a way to contact these people?
In the courtyard, Shen Anan and Huo Rufeng sat on creaking bamboo chairs, their shadows stretched long on the bluestone slabs.
Shen Anan held a palm leaf fan in her hand, waving it gently to drive away the mosquitoes in the summer night: "Rufeng, I opened a garment factory in cooperation with the deputy director Liang you introduced before..."
Listening to her words, Huo Rufeng nodded, "An An, your factory is well run. Lao Liang is a capable man. If you need me, just let me know."
Shen Anan nodded, a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes: “Well, I know, with you here, I feel at ease.”
The two were chatting when suddenly there was a commotion outside, a mixture of dogs barking and people shouting. Huo Rufeng stood up suddenly, and his military alertness made him instantly alert: "I'll go out and take a look."
Shen Anan also stood up, frowning: "I'll go with you."
The two walked out of the yard, and in the night, they saw Zeng Qingqing and Lao Xu outside, with anxiety written all over their faces. Huo Rufeng walked forward quickly and said in a steady voice, "What happened?"
Seeing that it was the two of them, Zeng Qingqing panted and pointed in the direction of the hospital: "It seems that the leader suddenly fell into a coma and is now being sent to the hospital."
When Shen Anan heard this, her heart tightened and she quickly asked, “Is the situation serious?”
Hearing this, Zeng Qingqing shook her head, her voice filled with worry: "We don't know, we only know that he was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment."
After hearing this, Huo Rufeng immediately made a decision: "I'll go over and see if there's anything I can do to help."
Shen Anan had no objection. After all, the chief was like a mentor and a teacher to Huo Rufeng. Without the chief's efforts to promote him, there would be no Huo Rufeng today. Now that the chief was in trouble, he had to go and see.
"I'll go with you."
Old Xu also spoke.
Soon, most of the officers from the military compound had gone there, leaving only a bunch of military wives standing in the alley, worrying about the situation.
Shen Anan and Zeng Qingqing stood there talking about this matter, their hearts full of worry. At this time, Sister Liu walked out from the shadows with an anxious look on her face.
"An An, Qing Qing, you are here too." There was a slight tremor in Sister Liu's voice.
Shen Anan turned around and saw Sister Liu, and asked quickly: “Sister Liu, do you know the situation of the leader?”
Hearing this, Sister Liu sighed, her face full of worry: "Hey, it is said that the leader has had heart pain for many days, but he has been holding on and has not gone to the hospital. He suddenly fell into a coma tonight and was found. His condition looks quite serious."
"Is it so serious? Isn't the commander usually in good health?"
Shen Anan was a little confused.
Sister Liu shook her head and sighed, "Who says it's not true? But this disease comes when it comes, and it can't be stopped. Right now Yang Xiaoyue is crying in the clinic and is out of breath. You know how proud she is. She's crying like this, so her condition must be very serious..."
It was just dawn and Shen Anan had just fallen asleep when she was awakened by the sound of Huo Rufeng returning home. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and watched Huo Rufeng walk into the house with a tired look on his face.
"Rufeng, you're back. How's the leader doing?" Shen Anan quickly stood up and asked with concern.
Huo Rufeng shook his head, his voice heavy: "An An, the situation is not good. The chief's condition is very complicated. The cardiologist from the health center went to the north to attend an exchange meeting and has not returned yet."
Hearing this, Shen Anan's heart tightened. She could feel the seriousness of the situation: "What should we do? Can the chief's condition last until the doctor comes back?"
Huo Rufeng sighed, frowning, "It's hard to say. The hospital said that the commander's condition has been delayed for too long. Now his condition is serious and he may not survive until tomorrow."
"It's so serious..."
Shen Anan was stunned. She knew that the commander had special meaning to Huo Rufeng and the entire military region. She could imagine Huo Rufeng's mood at the moment.
"Rufeng, you should take a rest first and don't worry too much. Maybe there will be a turn for the better." Shen Anan comforted softly, even though she herself was unsure.
But how could Huo Rufeng rest? Since the first day he joined the army, he has been a soldier under the commander. He has gone through life and death so many times. Now the commander may not live until tomorrow. He just felt a little dazed.
"I came back to tell you. I'm afraid you'd be worried. Have a good rest. I'll go to the health center to see if there's anything else I can do."
After Huo Rufeng finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to set off.
Seeing this, Shen Anan quickly stopped him, “Rufeng, wait for me.”
She planned to go over there to see the chief's situation and see if she could save him. Even though she didn't like Yang Xiaoyue, Shen Anan could see from the last incident that the chief was a man with a bottom line.
Besides, human life is at stake, so she has to give it a try.
Shen Anan accompanied Huo Rufeng to the health center in a hurry. As soon as she entered the ward, she saw the leader lying on the bed, his face as pale as paper and his breathing weak. Shen Anan was stunned, she knew the situation was more serious than she thought.
So she walked straight to the doctors and began asking about the leader's heart condition. The doctors were a little surprised by Shen Anan's sudden joining, but when they saw that it was Huo Rufeng who brought her, they still explained the leader's condition to her.
Just at this moment, Yang Xiaoyue came back to the ward and saw Shen Anan discussing with the doctor, and her anger rose immediately.
She rushed over, pointed at Shen Anan's nose and cursed: "Shen Anan, what are you doing here? This is my dad, don't meddle in other people's business here!"
