The two turned around at the same time and saw a man in military uniform get out of the driver's seat and open the back door. Nie Youyu got out of the car with a serious expression.
When he saw that Lai Xiang and Tang Yue were both looking at him, Nie Youyu slowly put on a smile.
Tang Yue...you're such a good actress. I can tell you're the boss, okay?
Lai Xiang tightened her grip on Tang Yue's hand. Nie Youyu had already walked up to the two of them. "Lai Xiang, what brings you here? And who is this young comrade?"
Lai Xiang's suspicions were confirmed, but now she was even more terrified. Clearly, her uncle had ulterior motives. Now that Xiao Yueyue was right beside her, what could she do to prevent her uncle from taking Xiao Yueyue away?
"Oh, she doesn't..."
"Greetings, sir! May I ask, who is this sir?"
Nie Youyu raised an eyebrow. Not bad, this child looks young, but he is indeed clever.
Nie Youyu stood tall and proud, waiting for Lai Xiang to introduce him to Tang Yue. However, after waiting for a long time, he only heard one sentence: "Um, little Yueyue, this is my uncle-in-law."
Nie Youyu...
The guard standing to the side... Commander? Is this what you meant by not needing me to speak? Indeed, I didn't speak, but Comrade Lai's introduction was far too brief.
Tang Yue deliberately leaned closer to Lai Xiang and whispered, "Sister Lai, your uncle seems to hold a high position."
Lai Xiang understood Tang Yue's meaning and whispered in agreement. "It should be! But all I know is that my uncle is a division commander, and that's all I know."
Tang Yue looked at Lai Xiang with a sympathetic expression, while Lai Xiang seemed indifferent.
Nie Youyu...
Guards...
Although both Lai Xiang and Tang Yue thought their voices were very soft, they spoke in a voice loud enough for the other two to hear. Nie Youyu seemed to only now realize that he had never asked his family to tell Lai Xiang which military region he was in.
Clearing his throat, Nie Youyu put on a smiling face. "Yes, I'm Lai Xiang's uncle. Young man, you and Lai Xiang are friends, right? Lai Xiang, why don't you invite your little friend over for a visit?"
"It just so happens that your aunt bought some meat from the meat processing plant today. What a coincidence! Come on, young man, I warmly invite you to visit Lai Xiang's home."
Tang Yue knew Nie Youyu had come prepared from the moment he appeared. It seemed he had been planning this for a long time. Since he had extended such a warm invitation, how could she refuse?
Just as Tang Yue was about to agree, three people rushed out from the military unit.
"Hey, Commander Nie, what brings you here?" Commander Huang was still some distance away, but his voice preceded his arrival. Nie Youyu's expression remained unchanged as he looked up and smiled at the newcomer.
When Commander Huang approached, Nie Youyu formally saluted him, "Greetings, Commander. I was just passing by when I saw my niece here, so I got out of the car to come and see her."
It turned out my niece was chatting with her friend, and I was thinking she didn't have many friends in Beijing, so I was inviting her to my house.
Commander Huang glanced at Lai Xiang, then at Tang Yue. His large eyes lingered on Tang Yue before moving away. "This young comrade is quite young. Young comrade, who are you? Whose child are you? Does your father serve in the military?"
Tang Yue... she's really cunning. But looking at Chang Yin standing behind him, she figured he was here to help her. Sigh, they're making a mountain out of a molehill. She's not afraid.
"Greetings, Commander! I am Tang Yue, the company commander of the 4th Company, 1st Battalion, 3rd Regiment, 7th Division of the South Island Army Corps. I am here in Beijing on a mission."
Commander Huang straightened his expression. "Oh, so you're Tang Yue. Haha, I've been too busy these past few days and haven't had a chance to see you yet. Young Company Commander Tang is a hero! We should all learn from you."
"Come on, let's go to the office and have a good talk."
Tang Yue's face showed a troubled expression. "Chief, my friend invited me to her home today."
Lai Xiang was getting anxious beside Tang Yue. What was Xiao Yueyue doing? What a perfect opportunity to escape! Why couldn't she understand? She desperately wanted to pull Tang Yue away, but with everyone watching, there was nothing she could do. She was extremely worried.
Chang Yin and Tang Yue were exchanging knowing glances. 'Nonsense! Can't you see Commander Huang is trying to help you out?'
Tang Yue: 'I'm not afraid. He clearly came prepared. He might have escaped this time, but what about next time? I can't keep hiding forever. Knowing his scheme is the best way to deal with him, isn't it?'
Chang Yin: 'No, you've forgotten Commander Kang's instructions. Your safety is the most important thing.'
Tang Yue: 'Don't you know my strength? Who can hurt me?'
Nie Youyu was quite pleased at this moment. He was indeed too young; he couldn't see the situation clearly. But that was fine too; it made it easier for him to win them over. However, if he couldn't win them over, then...
Hey, kids are kids, accidents happen all the time, it's perfectly normal.
Commander Huang...
Is it really because this child is young? But what does the way she looks at Chang Yin mean now?
Commander Huang turned to look at Chang Yin, "Battalion Commander Chang, did you give Tang Yue the day off today?"
Tang Yue stared intently at Chang Yin, as if to say, 'Let me tell you, you can't ruin my plans.' At the same time, she exerted her pressure on Chang Yin.
Chang Yin finally had no choice but to nod faintly, "Yes, sir! These two days are our rest time, and Company Commander Tang has free time."
Commander Huang... Have all the soldiers on the South Island had their brains washed by the sea? They're all so idle!
Nie Youyu looked at Commander Huang happily, "Then, Commander, I'll come back to visit another day." Then he turned to Lai Xiang, "Lai Xiang, take your little friend and let's go home."
