"Okay, thanks. I'll treat you to dinner after I'm done with these next couple of days."
While thanking him, Xiao Zhengjun casually asked a question.
"By the way, can you and your sister-in-law get married this year? Your brothers and I have been waiting to drink your wedding wine for years."
They had asked this question before, but Huo Tingzhou always said to wait.
This led everyone to mistakenly believe that he was the one who didn't want to get married.
They are usually very busy, but this time they went on a mission together, so they had time to talk more.
Xiao Zhengjun said in an older brother tone, "Don't keep saying 'wait a little longer.' How many years does a young woman's youth last? She can't afford to be delayed like this."
"Let me tell you, you'd better hurry up and get married."
"Okay, I understand."
There was no way to explain this, so Huo Tingzhou could only nod in agreement.
As the two were talking, the guard He Ping suddenly ran over looking anxious.
"Reporting to the commander!"
After saluting the two regimental commanders, He Ping immediately reported the situation to his own regimental commander.
"Commander, this urgent telegram was received more than ten days ago, and the sending address is Shanghai."
"In addition, during the time you were on the mission, you received two phone calls, both from Beijing. These are their messages to you."
After speaking, He Ping handed the telegram and the recorded information to Huo Tingzhou.
Upon hearing the words "Shanghai," Huo Tingzhou opened the telegram without hesitation.
There are only two short words on it.
At first glance, Huo Tingzhou thought he was hallucinating.
He quickly checked the mailing address above, confirmed it was the Jiang family's old residence, and then glanced at it again.
And then I looked at it again!
Seeing him frowning and turning the telegram over and over, Xiao Zhengjun's curiosity was instantly piqued.
"What happened? What did the telegram say?"
Huo Tingzhou handed him the telegram, and when he saw the word "marriage" on it...
Xiao Zhengjun let out a sound of surprise, then looked at Huo Tingzhou with a complicated expression, the meaning of which was quite clear.
Look at the mess you've made! Shouldn't it be the man who initiates the marriage proposal?
[Also, what's with the constant frowning on your face?]
That's what Xiao Zhengjun was thinking, so he just asked the question directly.
"What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
It's not that I'm unhappy, it's that I'm worried.
Huo Tingzhou knew very well that she wouldn't post this for no reason, unless... unless something happened to the Jiang family!
Without time to explain, Huo Tingzhou quickly glanced at the two voicemail messages and said in a deep voice.
"I have to go now, I'll talk to you later."
"He Ping, get the car ready for me—"
