Chapter 189 Su Mengxue’s plan!
Su Mengxue was stunned for a moment, and then asked in a daze: "What happened to Yun Ting?"
Seeing her like this, Sun Suqin felt relieved. She said calmly, "I heard from my neighbor this morning that there have been wild wolves in the mountains recently, injuring many people, so the army sent people to the mountains to catch wild wolves."
"But the intelligence was wrong. When they got to the mountain, they found there wasn't just one wolf, but four. They didn't dare to advance any further. After everyone gathered, they realized he was missing. Someone said they saw him chasing the wolves. Later, when they were looking for him, they found a lot of blood on the mountain."
"Unfortunately, they didn't find any trace of him. They ran out of bullets and had to return to the unit."
"Sun Suqin, are you saying that Yun Ting got lost in the mountains?" Su Mengxue asked in disbelief, her heart trembling.
"Yeah, why would I lie to you?" Sun Suqin replied nonchalantly, "If you don't believe me, you can go to the army and ask."
Upon hearing this, Su Mengxue immediately ran away, but she soon turned back.
She grabbed Sun Suqin and warned her, "Sun Suqin, if you dare tell this to the old man, I will definitely tell the police about you stealing antiques from our home and selling them. You know the consequences!"
Sun Suqin glared at her unnaturally and said, "Grandpa is old, how could I be so ignorant? You don't need to teach me about this. If you have the time, you should go to the army and ask about Yun Ting!"
Su Mengxue was extremely panicked. She wanted to rush to the army immediately to ask about Yun Ting's situation, but she knew that she had to stay calm and not be impatient.
She took a deep breath and hurried back to the room to wake up Zihao. Then she said to the sleepy Zihao, "Zihao, Mom has something important to do. Hurry up and get up and follow Mom."
Lu Zihao was still asleep, but he knew Su Mengxue must have something important to tell him. He rubbed his eyes and nodded, "Got it, Mom."
He didn't even ask what was wrong and quickly got dressed and got up.
Su Mengxue took his hand and ran straight to Chen Lijuan's room. She was about to knock on the door, but then she thought the child might still be sleeping, so she whispered through the door, "I'm Su Mengxue, I need to talk to you!"
The door was quickly opened. After seeing Su Mengxue, Chen Lijuan put on her coat and asked in confusion, "Aunt, do you have something to talk to me about?"
Su Mengxue glanced around her room. Only the child was sleeping on the bed, and there was no sign of Gu Xiangyu. Chen Lijuan understood her thoughts and said, "He didn't come back last night, little aunt, just tell me what you want to say."
Su Mengxue nodded at her and said earnestly, "Can you do me a favor?"
Chen Lijuan noticed her panic and asked quickly, "Tell me."
"Something might have happened to Yun Ting. I need to rush to the army, but it's inconvenient for me to take Zihao with me. Can you help me look after him?"
Chen Lijuan wanted to ask her what happened to Gu Yunting, but seeing that she was in a hurry to leave, she didn't ask and nodded in agreement.
Su Mengxue quickly added, "Thank you. I have one more thing to tell you. Sun Suqin told me this, and I'm afraid she might tell the old man. I'd like you to keep a close eye on her. If the old man finds out, I'm afraid his body won't be able to bear it."
Chen Lijuan nodded at her again and said firmly, "Go ahead, leave the house to me."
Su Mengxue felt relieved when she saw her resolute reply. She turned to look at Zihao, squatted down and said, "Zihao, you must be obedient at home. Mom will be back soon."
Lu Zihao's eyes darkened as he asked, "What about him? Will he come back with you?"
Su Mengxue couldn't hold back her nerves when she heard this, but she knew she had to be strong now. She nodded at him with tears in her eyes: "Zihao, we will come back together. Mom promises you."
Lu Zihao looked at Su Mengxue and asked again, "Mom, he promised me yesterday that he would never abandon us again, and he also promised to make it up to us in the future. Is he trustworthy?"
A bitter feeling welled up in her heart. Su Mengxue pulled Zihao into her arms. After enduring it again and again, she said in a hoarse voice, "Zihao, he always keeps his word. Don't worry, since he promised you, he will definitely come back."
After a moment of silence, Lu Zihao took the initiative to let go of Su Mengxue and said, "Mom, I believe you. Go find him quickly!"
Su Mengxue looked at the determination in Zihao's eyes, and felt mixed emotions. She didn't dare to delay any longer, so she replied, "Okay." After that, she hurriedly left the Gu family.
When she went out and was about to hail a taxi on the roadside, she suddenly realized that this was not Shanghai and it would be difficult to get a taxi so early.
Just when she was extremely anxious, a familiar voice came from behind her.
"Where are you going? I'll take you there!"
Su Mengxue turned around suddenly and saw Xu Jianian standing not far away.
"Xu Jianian? Why are you here?" she asked in surprise.
Xu Jianian looked at her angrily, then walked up to her and said, "Isn't it all because of you? You left Shanghai without saying a word, and I immediately chased after you when I found out."
"Xu Jianian, you..."
"Aren't you in a hurry to go out for something? Get in the car!"
Before Su Mengxue could finish her words, Xu Jianian interrupted.
Su Mengxue was anxious to go to the army to ask about Gu Yunting. She didn't think too much about it and nodded in response, "Thank you, Xu Jianian."
After Su Mengxue got in the car, Xu Jianian said in a deep voice before starting the car: "Su Mengxue, I don't need you to thank me, but my help is not for nothing. It's okay if you remember it."
"Where are you going?"
"Jiangbei 54th Military Region!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Jianian started the car.
Twenty minutes later, Xu Jianian parked the car steadily in front of the military gate. Su Mengxue said thank you and got out of the car in a hurry.
She quickly ran to the guard post at the door and asked, "Comrade, please help announce that my name is Su Mengxue and I'm looking for Jiang Weilong!"
The sentry on duty looked at her for a few seconds, remembered Jiang Weilong's instructions early in the morning, and went to the pavilion to make a phone call.
Su Mengxue didn't know whether Jiang Weilong still held a grudge against her and refused to see her. Just when she was feeling uneasy, the sentry on duty turned back.
"Come on in! Someone will come pick you up inside!"
Things went much more smoothly than she expected. She thanked the sentry and ran in immediately.
She hadn't been running for long when she saw a man in a green military uniform jogging towards her. He stopped in front of her and asked, "Are you Su Mengxue?"
Su Mengxue nodded quickly and replied breathlessly, "I am."
After looking at her face, the man said, "Then come with me."
Su Mengxue followed closely behind him and walked up the stairs. After turning several corners, the man stopped in front of an office, said something to her, and turned away.
Su Mengxue looked up at the sign above, which read Battalion Commander Jiang Weilong. She sighed to herself, Jiang Weilong had indeed been promoted.
She thought about it, reached into her pocket, and turned on the recorder that she had kept in her pocket all year round.
