Chapter 361 Confessing One's Feelings
Zhou Xiye didn't ask any more questions and left with He Jianian's guards.
Fang Hua was bewildered by the guard's serious expression and pushed Zhou Chengzhi's arm: "What's going on? Why did you take Nishino away? Why didn't you ask him anything? You just let him take him away like that?"
Zhou Chengzhi thought Fang Hua was making a fuss: "It must be because of Bian Zhan's matter. In those years, Xiye and Bian Zhan had a very good relationship, especially since Xiye helped Bian Zhan complete his infiltration mission. These things definitely need to be investigated."
Jiang Zhizhi also felt that there was no major problem: "Mom, don't worry. If there really is a problem, it won't be Uncle He's secretary who comes, but the inspection team will come directly."
Zhou Chengzhi gave Jiang Zhizhi an approving look: "That's right. You've been in the compound for so many years, and you still don't have this much observational ability."
Fang Hua rolled her eyes at him, then picked up Xiao Zhouji and said, "Xiao Zhouji, let's go eat with Grandma."
As soon as Xiao Zhou heard it was time to eat, he happily let Fang Hua hold him, babbling happily.
Zhou Chengzhi didn't care about Fang Hua's bad attitude towards him. He smiled and winked at the little Zhou Ji who was perched on Fang Hua's shoulder. After Fang Hua took the child into the kitchen, he turned to look at Jiang Zhizhi. His smile faded and he regained his usual serious expression: "Zhizhi, I heard that you were the one who subdued Bian Zhan today?"
Jiang Zhizhi said truthfully, "It was also a coincidence; he was getting a little anxious."
Zhou Chengzhi nodded repeatedly: "It's good that you're not injured. You should practice your martial arts more in the future. It's good to exercise when you're not in a hurry, and you can also use it to defend yourself if something happens."
Jiang Zhizhi didn't expect Zhou Chengzhi to so easily dodge the topic: "Well, Dad, I'll exercise more in the future."
Zhou Chengzhi pondered for a moment: "Through this incident, I think we should let Xiao Zhouji and Shangshang learn some martial arts as soon as possible. I'll see who in the compound is the best, and then I'll hire a teacher for them."
Jiang Zhizhi exclaimed in surprise, "Dad, isn't it too early to be thinking about this? Little Zhou and Shang Shang can't even walk yet, and you're already starting to practice martial arts?"
Zhou Chengzhi waved his hand: "Not too early, not too early. I'll start looking for people now, and we'll start training them as soon as they can walk. I just thought of a few retired guards, and we can ask them to teach Xiao Zhouji and Shangshang."
Jiang Zhizhi was both amused and exasperated. Even if the two children could walk, it was too early for them to learn this. They couldn't even walk steadily yet, so how could she expect them to obediently learn to squat in a horse stance?
If Fang Hua knew this, Zhou Chengzhi would definitely get scolded again.
...
Zhou Xiye returned very late, and only Jiang Zhizhi was waiting for him in the living room.
When Zhou Xiye entered, she got up to heat up his food, brought it out, and sat down opposite him: "Are you alright? Did I make things difficult for you?"
Zhou Xiye shook his head: "No, they just asked about some things from the border war back then. After all, his problems are still very serious and have a great impact on the entire army. Those who were on good terms with him in the past will also be investigated."
Jiang Zhizhi sighed: "Bian Zhan really deserved it. I was afraid that the channels through which he obtained intelligence were provided to him by people in the army. Now that he has committed suicide, there is no way to find that person."
Zhou Xiye nodded: "We will be investigating a group of people now. Anyone who has a good relationship with Bian Zhan will be affected. However, our relationship was already bad before he faked his death, and we didn't contact each other during the years he was undercover, so it won't affect me much."
Jiang Zhizhi rested her chin on her hand as she watched Zhou Xiye eat. Thinking about how he was leaving the day after tomorrow, she felt a little sad: "I've been listening to the radio lately, and I always feel like things aren't peaceful over there. What do you think about me signing up to be a military doctor there?"
Zhou Xiye paused in his chopsticks, then looked up at Jiang Zhizhi: "You want to be the doctor in our team?"
Jiang Zhizhi's eyes crinkled into a smile: "I have this idea, what do you think? How are the doctors' skills there?"
Zhou Xiye paused for a moment: "The doctors' skill level is definitely not as good as in Beijing, but it is the best in the local area, especially in the treatment of external injuries, they are still very good."
He paused for a moment after speaking, then added, "But if you go, are you willing to leave Xiao Zhouji and Shang Shang behind?"
Jiang Zhizhi shook her head and sighed, "It's because I can't bear to part with it that I've been hesitating."
Zhou Xiye put down his chopsticks and rationally analyzed for Jiang Zhizhi: "Although there is a shortage of excellent doctors there, the conditions are also very harsh. Our camp doesn't even have a decent dormitory. The houses are old mud-brick houses, which are very cold in winter. When it snows, you can't even open the door."
"If we are transferred to southern Yunnan, although the climate there is nice, there may be fighting. If a conflict breaks out, we will have to worry about the safety of the children."
"Besides, so many people in the compound dote on Xiao Zhouji and Shang Shang, which is better for their growth."
Jiang Zhizhi remained silent, her chin resting on her hand and her brows furrowed.
Zhou Xiye thought for a moment: "Do you know something?"
Jiang Zhizhi sighed: "Didn't I tell you before that Sun Xiaoyue said she could know about her past life..."
Zhou Xiye frowned: "She's indulging in feudal superstition; you can't believe in that."
Jiang Zhizhi reached down, leaned forward a little, and got closer to Zhou Xiye, looking intently into his eyes: "I think what she said might be true. She said that she married you in her previous life, but after a few years of marriage, you had an accident and she became a widow."
Zhou Xiye's expression changed, and he looked helplessly at Jiang Zhizhi: "These are all her crazy words, you can't believe a word of them."
Jiang Zhizhi waved her hand: "Look, she insisted on marrying you before, but then she suddenly changed her mind and said that I was making a huge fuss about marrying you, and she chose to give in to me. Doesn't that sound very righteous?"
"But is she a person of great principle? If she wanted to marry you, I would rather die than let her."
Zhou Xiye frowned. If someone else had said such a thing, he certainly wouldn't have believed it or listened any further, and would have even left with a cold face.
But since Jiang Zhizhi said those words, even if he didn't believe them, he had to listen to her.
Seeing Zhou Xiye frowning in disbelief, Jiang Zhizhi added, "I think it's better to believe it than not. After all, she did say a few things correctly, such as that there would be a war in the second half of this year and the beginning of next year."
She also said that in your previous life, you got into trouble during this border incident, and that you got into trouble because you were trapped in the mountains, out of ammunition and food, and that reinforcements were not timely.
Zhou Xiye asked in surprise, "When did she say that?"
Jiang Zhizhi stared wide-eyed: "It's been a while, I think it was before I gave birth. I ran into Sun Xiaoyue at the hospital once. She was probably jealous of my pregnancy and childbirth, so she said a lot to me."
Zhou Xiye frowned: "Really?"
Jiang Zhizhi nodded very seriously: "I won't lie to you."
These words were not spoken by Sun Xiaoyue, but to convince Zhou Xiye, let's pin the blame on her for now.
