Chapter 77 Found clues!
Gu Yunting froze in place, silent for a long moment before speaking with incredible difficulty, "Instructor, are you transferring me to the island for training?"
Seeing his gloomy look, Lin Wenbin felt uncomfortable, but this was the best solution he could think of at the moment. He replied with a cold face, "That's right."
"But I..."
Gu Yunting's throat tightened. He immediately thought of the old man and Su Mengxue. The old man was still recuperating in the hospital. If he left, who would take care of him? And Su Mengxue, she had almost gotten into trouble. If he went to the island, who could protect her?
Lin Wenbin just thought that Gu Yunting was reluctant to leave that woman. He had already thought about it. The environment on the island was harsh and it was impossible for that woman to go to the island with him.
Time is the best medicine. By the time he has been stationed on the island for three years, that woman might have already gotten married, and the Jiang family would have given up on her thoughts. As for him, he should be able to let it go completely and find a suitable girl to marry and have children. His future is still bright.
His tone was full of unquestionable decisiveness: "Your brother is with the old man, and the army will send people to visit him regularly. The old man is a veteran who has been to the battlefield and has a high level of ideological awareness. He won't hold you back, so you don't have to worry about the family."
He paused and reminded, "As for that Su Mengxue, the conditions on the island are harsh, I'm afraid she won't go with you."
Gu Yunting's Adam's apple rolled. She didn't even want to marry him, let alone go to an island? That was probably even more impossible.
Seeing that he was silent, Lin Wenbin stepped forward, patted his shoulder, and said earnestly: "Yun Ting, a forced melon is not sweet. There are many good women. It's time for you to let go."
Gu Yunting's eyes were solemn, his throat moved slightly but he had nothing to refute, and in the end he could only purse his lips and remain silent.
Lin Wenbin knew that his advice would not heed him, so he could only let time heal everything. He said in a deep voice, "I'll give you a few days off. Go home and pack your things, spend some time with the old man, and then return to the army early Wednesday morning to assemble and depart for the island."
Although Gu Yunting was reluctant, as a soldier, he knew he had no room for bargaining. He straightened his back, saluted, and replied, "Yes, instructor."
Before he left, Lin Wenbin stopped him and ordered, "Call Jiang Weilong in!"
Gu Yunting responded and went out to call Jiang Weilong. He did not leave in a hurry, but stood in the corridor and waited until he came out.
Jiang Weilong came out with a serious expression on his face. Gu Yunting stepped forward and said in a gentle tone, "Jiang Weilong, let's talk!"
Jiang Weilong glanced at him, neither refused nor paid any attention to him, and strode straight out.
Seeing this, Gu Yunting followed him out of the military district office.
Seeing that Gu Yunting was still following him, Jiang Weilong turned around and said coldly, "Gu Yunting, why are you following me instead of going home to pack your things? Are you done yet?"
Gu Yunting explained with a serious face: "Jiang Weilong, I don't want to quarrel with you, I just want to have a good talk with you."
Although Jiang Weilong was exempted from confinement due to family matters, he was punished to run 30 kilometers cross-country with a load every day. He was busy preparing and had no time to chat with Gu Yunting.
He replied unhappily, "Gu Yunting, I have nothing to talk to you about." As he spoke, he walked past Gu Yunting and went out.
Gu Yunting leaned forward to block his way, his eyes sharp: "Two days ago, someone tried to cause a car accident to harm Su Mengxue. Jiang Weilong, was it you who did it?"
Jiang Weilong understood. He looked straight at Gu Yunting and sneered, "No wonder you came to pick a fight with me so early in the morning. Just for this?"
Gu Yunting's eyebrows moved slightly when he saw his tone: "You didn't do this?"
Jiang Weilong replied sternly, "Of course not. Even if I were to take action, I would never resort to trickery."
Gu Yunting's eyes darkened. Who was it that wanted to harm her? Seeing Jiang Weilong about to leave, he didn't bother to think too much and added, "Jiang Weilong, you know Su Mengxue isn't to blame for the engagement. I'm going to the island soon. If you're angry, come to me. Don't bully her."
Jiang Weilong narrowed his cold eyes and said sarcastically, "Gu Yunting, I really don't know what's so good about that woman. You gave up your bright future and went to the island for her. I hope you won't regret it later."
He turned to leave, then suddenly turned back and said pointedly, "The Jiang family doesn't do mean things, and they won't bully others. Don't take yourself too seriously. Sooner or later, Shi Yi will meet a man who is a thousand times better than you."
Gu Yunting felt relieved after hearing what he said. He moved his lips, wanting to take this opportunity to say goodbye to him, but he couldn't say anything for a while.
Before Jiang Weilong left, he just said, "Grandpa, I'll visit you often."
…
The middle-aged woman was very punctual. She came to Zhou Ji Tailor Shop as promised to find Su Mengxue, pulled her aside and told her what she had sent people to investigate.
"Wang Jun has been gambling and drinking with others these days. When he was drunk, he said that his woman had become the daughter of a wealthy family and that he was about to become rich.
"To get him to vomit more, I sent someone to play cards and drink with him. After he got carried away, he told me he was going to the police station. He said he had someone behind him, and even if he really hit you and you lost the baby, the police wouldn't be able to do anything to him."
"Not only that, he also cursed the person who suddenly appeared to save you. He said that if that person hadn't suddenly appeared, he would have done the job and made a lot of money from it."
Su Mengxue's eyes suddenly turned cold. She didn't even know this man named Wang Jun. How could he know she was pregnant? He even said he could make a lot of money by hitting on her. Who was the mastermind behind this? Who was watching her all the time, so why was he so jealous of her pregnancy?
Su Mengxue thought for a moment and suddenly seemed to understand something. She quickly asked, "Sister Li, did he say anything else?"
The middle-aged woman shook her head: "If you ask him later, he will fall asleep."
Su Mengxue frowned and continued to ask: "Sister Li, do you know where he is from?"
"He's from the south. I think the place they live in is called Linxi Village?"
Southerner? The answer in Su Mengxue's mind was almost there. She expected Gu Yunting to come to her again, and when he came, she would ask him a question.
The middle-aged woman reminded him, "This guy called Wang Jun didn't succeed this time, and he's so arrogant. He might come to harm you again. You should try to go out as little as possible during this period."
Su Mengxue curled the corners of her lips slightly and responded repeatedly: "Thank you, Sister Li."
"You are my daughter's savior. I will continue to send people to track his movements. If I find anything new, I will let you know."
After Su Mengxue thanked the middle-aged woman again, she left.
As Su Mengxue expected, Gu Yunting arrived not long after. Seeing his bruised face, she asked in surprise, "Did you have a fight?"
Gu Yunting didn't want to tell him what happened today, so he replied perfunctorily: "No, I fell accidentally."
Seeing that he didn't want to talk about it, Su Mengxue changed the subject: "Gu Yunting, you said that I don't need to take care of this matter. Have you found the suspicious person?"
Gu Yunting shook his head: "Not yet.
Su Mengxue curled her lips. Seeing him leave so hastily that morning, she thought he had a clue. Turns out he didn't. Her eyes darkened and she asked, "Gu Yunting, do you know where Jiang Shiyi was abducted and trafficked to?"
