Chapter 156 A Narrow Escape: Her Mission a Success



The sound of a man snoring could be heard coming from Cheng Xiao Kui's room; clearly, the person in the room was asleep.

Cheng Chun Kui gently pushed the door open. Sure enough, she was the last one to leave last night, and Cheng Xiao Kui hadn't noticed that the door was locked; the door lock was open.

The door opened silently, and she tiptoed into the room, where she saw two people sleeping on the bed.

Si Muyang and Cheng Xiaokui slept in each other's arms, sleeping very sweetly.

Cheng Chun Kui quickly looked away and checked everything in the room. She finally found Si Muyang's briefcase...

When Cheng Xiao Kui woke up, she was surprised to find that it was already noon.

Sunlight streamed into the room through the gaps in the curtains, and the sunlight was so bright.

The sounds of aunties and grandmas chatting and working could be heard from the courtyard.

She sat up and looked at Si Muyang sleeping next to her. Even though Si Muyang was fast asleep, his hand was still wrapped around her waist.

She rubbed her head, wondering how she had fallen asleep and slept for so long.

She gently placed Si Muyang's arm aside and checked the temperature of his forehead.

I still have a fever, but thankfully the temperature isn't getting alarmingly high.

Looking at the sleeping Si Muyang, she didn't want to disturb him. She quietly picked up the washbasin and went to the kitchen to wash up. She knew how frighteningly high Si Muyang's fever was last night, and she still felt scared when she thought about it.

Cheng Chun Kui was busy in the kitchen making braised chicken necks and feet, as well as pork head meat and pig tail tips.

She saw Cheng Xiaokui carrying a washbasin as she walked in and asked, "Why didn't you sleep a little longer? It's only this early and you're already up."

Cheng Xiaokui said with a smile, "You really are my sister. It's already noon and I just got up, and you're still complaining that I got up early."

Cheng Chunqiu said, "Weren't you taking care of Comrade Si? You must not have slept well last night. How is Comrade Si?"

Cheng Xiao Kui said, "He still has a fever, but it's not as bad as it was at night. He's still sleeping. I'll give him the medicine when he wakes up in a little while."

Cheng Chunqiu said, "People need food to survive. I'll make him some noodle soup in a bit. I bought a chicken and I'm making the broth in the pot."

I heard from the elders that chicken soup is the most nourishing. You should all drink a couple more bowls later.”

Cheng Xiaokui said, "Sister, you've almost made me fat. I don't need any more supplements, but Si Muyang and his comrades do. Make them drink a couple more bowls later."

She finished washing up in the kitchen and helped her sister make lunch.

Cheng Chun Kui urged Cheng Xiao Kui to go back to the room to take care of Si Mu Yang.

Cheng Xiao Kui was indeed worried about Si Mu Yang, so she stayed in the kitchen for a while before returning to her room.

Si Muyang slept for a while before waking up. He felt weak all over and his limbs were too limp to lift.

Cheng Xiao Kui brought over the chicken noodle soup her sister had made and fed it to Si Mu Yang.

As expected, food is the foundation of life. Si Muyang ate a big bowl of chicken noodle soup before he regained some strength.

He had been smiling the whole time, never expecting that he had survived last night and was still alive.

Cheng Xiaokui took out the medicine and gave it to Si Muyang. She then asked Si Muyang about the location of the explosion and any suspicious people.

To be honest, this plot wasn't there when she read the book.

It seems that she changed her own life trajectory, causing everyone else's life trajectory to change as well.

She has no idea what will happen next.

Si Muyang said that he was the only person in the car at the time, along with two bodyguards and a driver.

After the explosion, both guards and the driver were killed. Hunters in the mountains heard the explosion and ran to the town to report it.

Police officers drove to the site of the explosion in a police car. They initially thought everyone was dead, but when they pulled him out, he was still alive.

Even more unexpectedly, he was saved after being taken to the hospital.

There were only four people in the car, and the other three had all died. He couldn't think of anyone else he could suspect.

Cheng Xiaokui said, "Besides you two, is there anyone else who knows you've taken this path?"

As you said, this mountain road is very secluded; cars rarely go there.

Si Muyang said, "I've thought about the higher-ups, but that seems even more impossible. The higher-ups are veterans who have dedicated decades to the military."

Cheng Xiaokui said, "It's not impossible that they could have been lying low for decades. Or perhaps there's another possibility..."

Si Muyang asked, "What other possibility is there?"

Cheng Xiaokui said, "The person who was lying in wait is dead. He didn't expect that by betraying your information, he would end up digging a hole for himself."

Si Muyang frowned, saying, "My two bodyguards are brothers who have risked their lives for me. If one of them has to be a traitor, it's probably the driver. I'll send people to thoroughly investigate the driver as soon as I get back to headquarters!"

Although the driver is dead, we can investigate his family and friends he used to meet.

Cheng Xiao Kui said, "You're going back to the military headquarters in a little while? So soon?"

Si Muyang said, "I was supposed to go straight to the military headquarters yesterday, but I missed you so much that I came to see you. Please bring me the clothes."

Having probably died once, Si Muyang is very sensitive to death.

He was so afraid of never seeing Cheng Xiao Kui that he broke the rules and came to see her first.

Cheng Xiao Kui knew that Si Muyang's mission was important, and no matter how reluctant she was, she still took Si Muyang's clothes and helped him put them on.

Si Muyang picked up his briefcase, said goodbye to Cheng Xiaokui, and drove back to the military headquarters with his two bodyguards.

Cheng Xiao Kui escorted Si Muyang all the way to the gate. She stood in front of the gate watching the jeep drive away until it disappeared from sight.

Cheng Chun-kui asked, "He left so soon, and he still has a fever..."

Cheng Xiao Kui said helplessly, "I've already violated the rules and stayed here for one night..."

Cheng Chun-kui asked, "What kind of mission is he on this time? I can't tell if it's any kind of mission."

Cheng Xiaokui said, "I don't know. The missions he carried out were all classified. It's something I shouldn't have asked."

Cheng Chunqiu said, "Oh, is that so? Then I shouldn't have asked. Alright, stop looking. He'll definitely have a doctor back at the military headquarters. He'll be back in a few days, all lively and energetic!"

Cheng Xiao Kui nodded slightly and said, "I hope he gets better soon."

Si Muyang returned to the military headquarters and took out all the documents from his briefcase, handing them over to his superiors.

Chief Zhao looked at the thick stack of documents, all of which contained data on the intercontinental ballistic missiles they had developed.

He nodded as he looked at it and said, "This is an intercontinental ballistic missile that we developed ourselves!"

Mu Yang, you've done a great job this time! This data absolutely must not fall into the hands of foreign powers.

If enemy countries find out about our intercontinental ballistic missile data, all our hard work over the years will have been for nothing!

Si Muyang said, "I know that once they know our range and trajectory, they can launch interceptor missiles. Our intercontinental ballistic missiles will be rendered useless."
