She pursed her lips. "Xiaoni, my sister is right. We don't know that Comrade Zhao well, so we still need to be careful."
Che Xiaoni was clearly unhappy. "I didn't let you have any contact with me. Besides, I don't have anything on me. What could they possibly lie to me about?"
Seeing that Che Xiaoni wasn't listening at all, Guan Wenru's heart sank, and her tone became even more serious, "Xiaoni! We're doing this for your own good!"
Be especially careful of someone who seems perfect and eloquent!
Think about it, he's a cultural worker from the provincial capital, and he comes to our place and has such frequent contact with you, a young woman, all the time. Is that normal?
Did he ask you anything? Especially... about the military, the military region, or the family compound?
Che Xiaoni paused for a moment, her eyes flickering slightly, then immediately shook her head, "No! Comrade Zhao just talked to me about work, studies, and model operas... at most... at most he asked about the situation in the factory and the team, so that he could collect materials for his writing."
She paused for a moment, as if suddenly remembering something, and then changed the subject, looking at Guan Wenru with a hint of curiosity, "By the way, Wenru, speaking of which... where is Commander He on this mission? Why has he been gone for so long?"
"Your belly is so big, isn't he coming back? You'll be so tired when you give birth without him by your side! I hadn't thought of this at first; it was Comrade Zhao who reminded me, saying that being a military family member is truly admirable and the greatest thing!"
Che Xiaoni's intention was to let Guan Wenru know that Zhao Zhilang was a good person who cared about women.
But her words set off alarm bells in Guan Wenru's mind!
Che Xiaoni's topic change was too abrupt!
And they were asking questions they shouldn't have asked!
Guan Wenru's face instantly turned cold, her eyes sharply fixed on her. "Xiaoni, military matters are classified. Don't ask questions you shouldn't! Whether my husband goes on a mission or not is none of our business, and I don't know either. Why are you asking about this? Who told you to ask?"
Che Xiaoni was startled by Guan Wenru's stern gaze and tone, and whispered in defense, "I... I was just asking casually..."
"Was it Comrade Zhao who asked you to ask?" Guan Wenru asked gravely. "Do you know where Comrade Zhao lives?"
"..." Che Xiaoni's eyes widened slightly.
What did Guan Wenru mean by that?
She still wants to go see Comrade Zhao?
Comrade Zhao meant well, showing concern for her hardship in taking care of herself all by herself, yet she went and caused him trouble.
Thinking about this, Che Xiaoni felt a little wronged and indignant. "I don't know! I'm full. You guys eat slowly. I'm going back to the workshop first."
After saying that, she got up and left.
Bai Yun opened her mouth, speechless. "Sister, is Xiaoni... angry?"
