On the other side, Ah Kun led them toward the police station. At this time, all the units with telephones were already closed, and only the police station still had people on duty.
"You knew all along?" At this moment, Ruan Shaohong also understood. Huo Haocheng's reaction just now was calm. There was no surprise, no anger, just a calm sentence that turned their anger towards Bai Sirui into incomprehension of Ruan Shaoke's behavior.
He would have known long ago if he hadn't been told. He really didn't know whether to say Huo Haocheng was strong-willed or that he was emotionless.
If you say he has no feelings, then why did he treat Ruan Ruan so tenderly, as if she were a fragile treasure?
"Yes, I already knew. It was Ruan Ruan who found out and told me after I pressed her for details."
He now finally understood how Ruan Ruan felt when he pressed her for answers. She really wanted to pretend she didn't know! In Ruan Ruan's words, she made it clear that she wanted him to help her ship her favorite couple, so if he knew, he only brought it on himself.
"Does Ruan Ruan...she really support them being together?" Hearing that Ruan Ruan told him, that means she must have been the first to find out, right? But why didn't she tell her family? Did she not want them to know, or did she not want them to be separated?
"Hmm, she thinks that true love has no gender, and she thinks they are very sweet together." Thinking of how she would wait for him to come home no matter how late he came home, telling him about everything that happened during their day, down to the smallest detail, and laughing as she listened, he was a little jealous. But he couldn't bear to take away her happiness. Sigh, it's really a dilemma.
"Does true love have no gender?"
Hearing him say that, Ruan Shaohong was at a loss for what to do. "So, do you think we should tell our family about this?"
“I think this is an opportunity to let them confess themselves. So many people heard it today, and I think Second Uncle probably knows by now. Rather than having Second Uncle bring it up later, it's better to let them confess to Grandpa when we get back. With Ruan Ruan here, she can put in a good word for them.”
He knew how much the old man doted on Ruan Ruan. To put it bluntly, even if she said in front of them that she wanted the two of them to be together and wanted to see them date, the old man probably wouldn't object.
It has to be said, he was right.
"That's settled then."
Afterwards, they used the police station's phone to call the Ruan family, let them know they were safe, and confirmed that they would buy tickets to go back the next day before going back to rest.
Back in Beijing, ever since the meeting ended and news of their pursuit arrived, they hadn't been sleeping well. Now, finally hearing the news that they had returned home safely, their hearts finally settled down. As for how they got back, they would ask them in detail once they arrived home.
"Alright, don't worry about it anymore, go to sleep."
"good"
The next day, everyone slept until noon. After lunch, they packed their things and headed to the train station. Huo Haocheng took his military officer's ID and bought sleeper tickets for everyone. Ruan Ruan went with them. He wondered if he could let her suffer with them by taking a hard sleeper, especially since there were also two injured people, Ruan Shaoke and Bai Sirui.
After buying the tickets, they called Ruan Chuanji and asked him to arrange for someone to pick them up.
Originally, Huo Haocheng planned that they would have some time before crossing the border, and Ruan Chuanji had already arranged for someone to meet them. But now, they don't need any of that anymore; they have returned safely on their own.
After they finished making the phone call, the train arrived at the station. They boarded through the train conductor's passage. For their convenience, the ticket seller arranged for them to sit together, right next to the front of the train.
The three of them, Huo Songhuai, returned to the Huo family the day after they left. However, they brought Akun with them. It was almost Chinese New Year, and he felt lonely by himself. It would be nice to spend the New Year with the Huo family.
When Ruan Chuanji, from the Beijing Military Region office, received Huo Haocheng's call, his first reaction was joy. Afterward, he called home and heard his father say that he had known about it last night and that even an old man like him was more composed than him when he heard the news. He told his father, as the commander-in-chief of the military region, to be calm and steady. Then he hung up the phone.
Instead of being angry at the old man's words, he was actually very happy. The more relaxed the old man spoke, the more it proved to be true and not his illusion. Afterwards, he called Gu Wenpeng and Ruan Chuanyan separately and told them about Ruan Shaoke's injury, asking them to come back and visit when they had time.
After that, they went to arrange for someone to pick them up.
Huo Haocheng and his group boarded the train at around 4 p.m. and arrived at Beijing Railway Station at around 6 a.m. the next day. The train staff took good care of them along the way, and when they saw that there were injured people among them, they brought them their dinner directly.
When they got off the train, the train conductor came to see them off. After most of the passengers had left, they helped Ruan Shaoke out of the station.
Ruan Shaoke and Bai Sirui were sent to the military hospital for examination. Huo Haocheng took the others back to the military region to report. Ruan Ruan was picked up by the old man's bodyguard and taken home.
When they returned to the unit, it was just time for morning exercises. The group first ate breakfast in the mess hall before heading to the commander's office.
Knowing they were coming back this morning, the commander and political commissar had been waiting for them since early morning. When they heard the knocking, he went to open the door for them himself.
"Good lad, I knew I wasn't wrong about you. Come on in."
The commander patted Huo Haocheng on the shoulder with both hands and then slapped Ruan Shaohong on the arm. After seeing that they were both alright, he let them in.
"It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright," Political Commissar Lin said with pride as he looked at his son who had come in behind him.
