Chapter Ninety-One: Someone Loves and Cares
The sky was overcast in the afternoon.
People who have experienced typhoons and torrential rains are instinctively worried when they see this weather.
"Is it going to rain? No way!"
Xin Li was helped by He Mingzhou to the deck, where she had once stood on the island waiting for He Mingzhou.
Unexpectedly, she has now become someone standing on the deck.
They thought that the people on the island might not know that they were returning early, but unexpectedly, Xinli saw several people appearing one after another at the dock when she looked into the distance.
Who is that?
Xinli asked He Mingzhou.
He held a very simple telescope in his hand, looked at the figures, and said with a smile, "It's Aunt Yang and Sister-in-law Lu."
He Mingzhou said softly, "They must be here to pick you up."
"Pick me up?"
After a moment of surprise, a huge light suddenly flashed in Xin Li's eyes: "Really?"
Seeing her like this, He Mingzhou felt a pang of heartache in his eyes: "Yes."
"Otherwise, they must have come to pick me up, right?"
"Aunt Yang and Sister Lu are not that close to me."
Xin Li frowned and nudged He Mingzhou with her elbow: "What you're saying sounds a bit self-deprecating. Why is Sister-in-law Lu not good to you usually?"
Sister-in-law Lu practically treats He Mingzhou like her own son, doesn't she?
How heartbreaking it would be if Sister-in-law Lu heard these words.
“Being good to me and being good to you are not mutually exclusive. Besides, I often go out to sea and they never come to pick me up. This time you came with me, so why didn’t they come to pick you up?”
"Looks like I'll have to be more careful from now on. With two such powerful family members on your side, I'm afraid if I dare to bully you, they could tear me apart without you even lifting a finger."
"Hahaha……"
Xinli laughed out loud.
"So someone like you actually has people you're afraid of?"
He Mingzhou looked at Xin Li for a long time and said softly, "Of course."
Xin Li became interested: "For example?"
Xin Li thought that, given He Mingzhou's personality, what he was afraid of was probably related to his family, country, and people.
They were afraid of war and countless deaths and injuries, and they were afraid that people would be displaced, hungry, and cold.
This is a truly loving person who deserves to be remembered and praised forever.
"For example... I'm really afraid that Aunt Yang and Sister Lu won't let me off the hook once I get ashore."
Xin Li was taken aback for a moment, but quickly regained her smiling expression.
"Don't be afraid, I'll explain it to you."
He Mingzhou raised his eyebrows dramatically, as if deliberately teasing Xin Li: "Then I'll thank you in advance."
"No problem, no problem."
Xie Shuangshuang stood far away in the crowd, watching He Mingzhou and Xin Li interact on the deck. Although the two did not have any intimate actions, the two outstanding people with their looks and figures were very eye-catching standing together.
In addition, there seemed to be an atmosphere between them that no one else could penetrate, which almost completely attracted the attention of others, making it impossible for them to look away.
"Our deputy division commander and his wife are such a perfect match!"
Yes, yes!
He Mingzhou's soldiers were excited: "I've never seen the deputy division commander like this before. This is what it means to turn steel into silk."
“They used to say that our sister-in-law wasn’t good. I think they were just sour grapes. Where can you find a girl as good as our sister-in-law? She’s beautiful and not fussy at all. She was so brave during the typhoon and single-handedly saved Aunt Yang and Xiao Hua’s family. She also caught Uncle Shi later.”
"Don't let her delicate and slender appearance fool you, she has a lot of energy inside."
"That's great, at least the deputy division commander has something to look forward to now."
Everyone's eyes welled up with tears upon hearing this.
Someone asked, puzzled, "What do you mean by that? Did He Mingzhou go through something before?"
The man nodded, and said with a heavy expression, "Isn't that right? Our deputy division commander used to be someone who really wanted to join the suicide squad."
"He always said that he had no worries and didn't need anyone to worry about him, but he was also afraid that if something happened to us, our families would be heartbroken. So no matter what happened, he was always the first to rush to the front. How could we not respect such a deputy division commander?"
Everyone was surprised by this, and they all said with great emotion, "According to you, Deputy Division Commander He is truly a great man."
"yes."
“We used to worry that if there was an emergency mission, the deputy division commander would just go without thinking. If someone as talented as him were to be sacrificed, it would be a loss for everyone. But the deputy division commander has a stubborn temper, like a bull. Once he makes a decision, I'm afraid even three bulls couldn't pull him back.”
"So we didn't dare to say anything."
"Now that we see how well the deputy division commander and his wife are doing, we feel relieved. With someone to care about, the deputy division commander will definitely not be so impulsive anymore."
One of the people who had been standing to the side listening to these words suddenly spoke up: "That's not necessarily true."
Everyone turned to look at him: "Old Ding, what do you mean by that?"
Old Ding said, "Have you thought about this? Your wife is someone who doesn't back down when things happen and is always ready to step up. Do you think someone like that would make the deputy division commander hide?"
"Who knows, if something really happens, my sister-in-law and the deputy division commander might just blindly rush forward together."
"Then we'll have to worry about two people instead of one."
Everyone: "???"
Goodness, an unexpected direction has emerged!
Moreover, the more everyone thought about it, the more likely they were to believe the other party was telling the truth!
Remembering how energetic the couple was during the previous typhoon, everyone fell silent.
"We're about to dock, everyone hurry up and pack your things."
Someone shouted something in the distance, and everyone stopped talking and went to get their things.
The person in charge of carrying the supplies walked at the front, while the others brought up the rear.
Because no one had given prior notice, there were only a few scattered people at the dock.
Aunt Yang and Zhang Jinhua didn't actually come on a special occasion; they just came every day to try their luck.
I never expected to run into this today.
As soon as Xinli disembarked, two kind elders rushed up to her: "Xinxin! Why have you lost weight? Did you not eat or sleep well while you were out?"
Xinli was really worn out by seasickness this time. She couldn't eat or sleep well, and her face looked a little thinner.
"I get seasick, so I've been sleeping these past few days."
Aunt Yang and Zhang Jinhua were heartbroken when they heard this.
"Oh dear, what a mess this is! Why didn't I think to ask before?"
Xin Li gave a wry smile: "Who would know?"
"It's good that you're back. Come on, you should go back and rest. I'll make you some soup."
Seeing that his wife was pulled away after he had only fallen a few steps behind, He Mingzhou smiled helplessly and said, "Aunt Yang, sister-in-law, please take Xinxin back first. I have some things to do here."
They are needed to escort supplies to prevent anyone on the island from having any bad ideas or doing anything wrong.
He Mingzhou, the deputy division commander, will definitely be going along.
"Alright, alright, don't worry about leaving Xinxin to us."
