"Actually, we could have given Chairman Zhou an answer just now, why wait three more days?"
"Honey, do you want to take on this mission?"
Jiang Si nodded, without denying it.
Just as she said before her marriage, she wouldn't go to work for a few coins, because there was no need for it.
The assets she currently possesses are enough for her to support herself well and also to raise her future children well.
But painting is the only hobby she has persisted in all these years.
She didn't want to let down all the hard work she had put in over the years.
Moreover, if this project can be completed successfully, it will be a significant milestone in her painting career.
Jiang Si naturally wanted to accept.
Huo Tingzhou knew this, which is why he said what he did earlier.
He said, "You can take the job if you want, but you can't tire yourself out. I'll coordinate the schedule."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Si was taken aback. "How do you plan to coordinate this?"
Could it be that after he reports on his work, he goes back to Qiongzhou Island first, and then after he finishes his work here, the two of them meet in Shanghai?
Thinking about it, it's not impossible, but "Are you willing to go back alone?"
Huo Tingzhou pursed his thin lips and this time gave a rather honest reply.
I can't bear to part with it!
Moreover, he was also worried about leaving her alone in Beijing.
The mural is six meters high, which is at least two and a half stories high.
Even with protective measures in place, he was still worried about her safety.
Huo Tingzhou took out the scarf he had brought and tied it into a pretty bow for her before speaking.
"I had already submitted a medical treatment report before this mission."
"I originally planned to take you out for a recuperation trip after the performance review."
Knowing that she usually loves taking baths, Huo Tingzhou chose a sanatorium with hot springs this time.
But plans don't always go as expected, so we'll have to take her there another time.
"Convalescence?"
Upon hearing Huo Tingzhou's words, Jiang Si immediately remembered.
Pilots seem to be required to undergo a mandatory one-month recuperation period every year, just like a medical check-up; these are all mandatory requirements.
Currently, all major military regions across the country have their own sanatoriums, and pilots can choose one of them.
The best options are Liancheng, Jiaocheng, and Hangcheng, where family members can bring their families during the recuperation period, but they will have to pay for it themselves.
If you calculate it that way, including the time spent reporting for duty, they would have a month and a half of vacation.
There is plenty of time.
Thinking of this, Jiang Si's eyes lit up.
Seeing the corners of her lips turn up in a smile, Huo Tingzhou suddenly felt that the little regret in his heart had become less important.
As long as she's happy.
Jiang Si was naturally happy, but after thinking about it, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
She remembered that in the original book, Huo Tingzhou went to Xinjiang Province to carry out a secret mission at the end of this month.
But this mission just appeared out of nowhere.
Now Jiang Si is unsure whether he will be on the task list a few days from now.
She could only ask tentatively, "Are you staying in Beijing for recuperation this time, just like last time, where you'll have to go on a mission after only two days?"
Actually, Jiang Si didn't mean anything by asking that question, but Huo Tingzhou seemed to have misunderstood.
He thought his wife was worried that he would be abandoned like last time.
Huo Tingzhou immediately replied, "No, under normal circumstances, the same person would not be assigned to perform more than two missions in a short period of time."
"But didn't we send you last time too?"
"That was because of special circumstances last time."
As for why, the military region has not yet reached an official conclusion, so Huo Tingzhou can only say what he can say.
"Don't worry, my recuperation report has been approved, and I won't be assigned any urgent tasks in the future."
Since he had said that, Jiang Si could only put her mind at ease for the time being.
At this time, she had no idea that Huo Tingzhou was sent to the border to carry out a mission because of her involvement.
Seeing that things had been discussed to a sufficient extent, Jiang Si checked the competition schedule. The men's track and field competition was currently underway.
After watching the track and field competition, I'll go observe from the stands.
That should be about it by the morning.
"We'll grab something to eat nearby at noon and come back early in the afternoon to try and finish as soon as possible."
Huo Tingzhou had no objection to her arrangement.
He reiterated his previous statement: "Just don't overwork yourself."
Jiang Si smiled; she wasn't stupid.
As she was laughing, Jiang Si felt a pang of sadness when she saw the dark circles under Huo Tingzhou's eyes.
Based on her understanding of Huo Tingzhou, she figured he must have stayed up for at least two nights in a row, and after getting home, he probably just took a shower, changed his clothes, and came over.
He hasn't slept for days and nights, is he trying to die?
He wanted to die, but Jiang Si didn't want to become a widow at such a young age!
“A-Zhou—”
When he heard her call out that name, Huo Tingzhou's heart softened a little.
"What's wrong? I'm here."
"Let's go back in a bit."
"Shall we go back now?"
Huo Tingzhou was a little out of sync with her. Didn't she just say that they would have lunch nearby and then continue in the afternoon?
“Yes, right now.” Jiang Si nodded.
If she didn't say that, given Huo Tingzhou's stubborn nature...
Even if you pulled him with nine oxen, he wouldn't leave!
Anyway, the sports meet is going on for three days in a row, so coming back tomorrow won't make a difference.
Seeing the water bottle hanging on his shoulder, Jiang Si reached out and took it from him.
"Please tell those two police officers that I'm tired and want to go home to rest as soon as possible, and ask them to go home early too."
