Chapter 143: Shock (Update 1)
Ye Jing's tone on the phone inevitably sounded a little anxious. At first she wasn't sure if Shengsheng had left without saying a word.
But she asked the guard on duty at the checkpoint, and he said he saw her carrying large and small bags out of the door with his own eyes.
"I can't contact your son now. Go and try to contact him! Ask him if he is coming back to this house or not. Ask him if he really doesn't want to live like this anymore!"
Ye Jing works at the Women's Federation and deals with work related to women and children every day.
She naturally stands on the side of women.
Moreover, she saw it all happen. Her good son went out that night, and she didn't know what urgent matter had happened that made him rush back to the army so late.
Apparently, he was going on a mission this time without even telling Shengsheng about it.
She was waiting for his call at home and she called him several times. His calls were definitely not connected, which was why she felt so disappointed and gradually lost her heart.
However, Ye Jing didn't think that her son's claim that he had a mission to perform was a lie.
But he was wrong in this matter.
Being a military wife is difficult, as the young couple rarely spend time together.
What's more, Shengsheng came all the way from Ningcheng to live with him. She has no relatives and must feel insecure.
Even though she is a little bit short-tempered and prone to overthinking, it is understandable.
As a husband, Fu Cheng should be more considerate and caring.
Ye Jing became angrier and angrier as she spoke. She usually dealt with a lot of things at work, and she was also filled with indignation when something like this happened in her own family: "I think Shengsheng is not bad either. She is so pretty, so she must have good genes. She is sweet-talking, smart and well-behaved. If your son doesn't want to live with her, then divorce her as soon as possible, and don't delay the girl from finding another one."
Fu Wenyuan listened to his wife's angry voice and was silent for a while, "I haven't been able to contact him these days."
It is a critical moment to carry out the mission.
Even if I tell him, I can't call him back.
Fu Wenyuan said, "Ah Jing, don't worry, I'll send someone to look for him."
Ye Jing snorted coldly: "How can we find him? We don't even know how he left!"
"The guard said that Shengsheng's brother came to pick him up. I have called my comrades in Ningcheng and asked them to keep an eye on him. But I don't think Shengsheng will return to Ningcheng."
"It's hard to say whether she got on the train or not."
In the 1970s, it was not easy to find someone.
It's like looking for a needle in a haystack.
It's easier said than done.
Ye Jing was too lazy to argue with her husband anymore. Now was not the time for an argument.
She quickly called her son's workplace and got straight to the point: "Your brother and sister are missing."
Fu Yuan held a pen in his hand and drew a long black line across the bottom of the document. He frowned and looked serious: "Mom, what do you mean by gone?"
Ye Jing told him all the things that were wrong these days, "Where can she go alone? Is the man who came today really her brother? It would be bad if he is a trafficker."
Fu Yuan calmed down and comforted his mother: "Mom, don't panic. No trafficker would dare to show up in front of the guards. My sister-in-law...is not stupid. She won't be kidnapped that easily."
However.
Fu Yuan actually didn't want to get involved in this matter because he thought it was troublesome.
He became even more certain that he was right. Song Shengsheng was indeed very childish and difficult to deal with.
Just a small thing caused such a big commotion.
Fu Yuan hated stupid people first and people who made trouble for him out of nothing second.
But no matter what, even if he couldn't stand Song Shengsheng's various shortcomings, since she was now the daughter-in-law of the Fu family and his brother's wife, he couldn't just ignore it if something happened.
"I'll send someone to the train station to inquire."
But there's no hope.
The ticket inspector sees so many people every day, how can he remember them all?
Ye Jing also knew that there was little hope. "This is all we can do for now. I'll pay more attention to the news coming from Ningcheng."
Fu Yuan said, "I know."
Ye Jing also did not forget the most important thing: "Xiao Chi doesn't know about this yet, so don't let it slip. Just say that Shengsheng is going home to visit relatives and will be back soon, okay?"
Fu Yuan frowned: "Mom, this kind of thing can't be kept secret for long."
Ye Jing was discussing with him: "You don't know how much Xiao Chi likes Sheng Sheng, so keep it a secret for now. And Sheng Sheng asked me to take care of the child for her in the letter. If your brother wasn't such a jerk, she would never have been willing to give up the child she had carried for ten months."
Fu Yuan rubbed his brows, "What did he do?"
Fu Yuan knew Fu Cheng. It was impossible for him to have any ambiguous relationship with other lesbians, and he was not the kind of man who would treat his wife harshly.
Normally, I don’t let my younger siblings get involved in anything at home.
Fu Yuan could not imagine that he could do something so outrageous as to make someone run away from home.
Ye Jingxin said that even she, as a mother, didn’t know either.
"He didn't come home for more than ten days, and he didn't even tell me what he did. I would be angry if I were him."
"Mom, he's a soldier, not an idle guy." Fu Yuan's face became serious. "The family members of soldiers have to bear many responsibilities that ordinary wives don't have to bear. When she married Fu Cheng, she knew it very well. If she can't stand the life of being apart, it would be better for them to separate."
Ye Jing was almost mad after hearing this, "Don't call Shengsheng ignorant, help me find someone quickly."
Fu Yuan didn't say it, he just felt that Song Shengsheng was not very sensible.
"Got it, Mom."
*
Even though they tried very hard to find someone, they only found a staff member at the train station who said that they had seen a girl who was prettier than the actress in the movie.
Fair and clean, with big eyes.
There was some redness around her eyes. She got on the train with another boy who looked younger than her.
The two of them were carrying large and small bags, which was very eye-catching.
But they really couldn't remember and weren't quite sure where the train was going.
There are so many trains every day, who can remember them all?
After searching for more than ten days, I found nothing.
The military exercise between Fucheng and Country A also ended.
It took one month and was a complete success.
Even though their equipment and technology were inferior to those of the other side, they still achieved the final victory.
Fu Cheng's arm was injured, with a grazed bullet tip.
The instructor was nearly frightened to death, but he himself didn't think anything of it.
During the exercise, there were more than one brush with death.
Every time, the first person I thought of while enduring the pain was Song Shengsheng.
Thinking of her, my heart hurts even more.
When Fu Cheng later became numb from the pain, he thought, why bother with her so much, just accept it.
Accept that she is fickle and that she has someone else in her heart.
He can endure, he can wait, he can pretend he knows nothing.
Fu Cheng didn't want to be angry with her anymore, he was eager to see her.
After the military exercise ended and Fu Cheng attended the commendation meeting, he couldn't wait to go home.
He was still wearing a formal military uniform. He had just returned to the dormitory to change his clothes when the contact person came to him and said, "Captain, we have received many calls from your family in the past few days."
