At five o'clock in the afternoon, thick clouds gathered and strong winds began to rise.
At dinner time, the two women took Danmin inside to eat, while Balu and Zhanpeng squatted at the gate waiting for battle reports.
At around four o'clock, Biaozi, who had been wandering in the mountains for half a day, suddenly called and said that he had encountered a group of powerful mercenaries.
Baru was well prepared and ordered a strong counterattack.
The Northern Myanmar Joint Defense Force surrounded the town at the foot of the mountain, and Chanpong ordered his men to surround the entire town.
The fighter planes inside the mountains could not play much of a role and could only circle around the periphery, waiting for the bombing order from above.
At this time, neither of them was in the mood to eat.
"Along, it's almost dark, why isn't the fight over yet? Can Biaozi and Boha hold on?" Zhan Peng put down the cigarette in his mouth and asked with a frown.
Baru looked at the time on his wrist and said, "Wait a little longer."
"What are you waiting for?" Zhan Peng asked his good brother in confusion.
Baru ignored him, stood up and walked inside.
"No, why don't you say something? Are you mute?" Zhan Peng shouted at his back in annoyance. Seeing that Balu ignored him, he kicked a stone on the roadside and cursed.
"Commander, Young Master Wu has arrived." At 5:20, the guard outside came in to report.
Upon hearing this, Balu stood up and walked out. He saw a military vehicle parked not far from the door. Wu Jie opened the door and got out.
"Uncle Long, everything has been arranged. Uncle Boha's girlfriend and her attending physician are on my private plane."
Wu Jie ran over, and the guards behind him followed not far away.
"Although I'm still angry with Xixi, I still have to say goodbye to her."
"Why did your mother suddenly ask you to go back early?" Baru ignored his emotions and asked lightly.
"My mother said that my uncle's schedule had changed and he had to return to China early. There was an international competition in China, and my mother signed me up and asked me to participate. She said that if I won a prize, she would allow me to continue taking online classes. If I didn't get a place, she would let my father stay alone in Naypyidaw, and she would go back to her parents' home to find a proper school for me, and I would never return to Myanmar.
Hey, Uncle Long, you don't know, my dad has called me more recently than he has in all the years combined. He's afraid I'll get a last place on the test and my mom will divorce him."
"Hmph. It's a sin for your father to give birth to such an unworthy and rebellious son like you." The man on the side had no sympathy at all.
"Alright, go in, say hello, and get out of here. As for that woman from Boha, arrange for your people to send her to drug rehabilitation as soon as her injuries have healed. Her movements and the people she comes into contact with must be closely monitored. When the security department comes to investigate, don't stop them. Only when you are sure that she is completely clean can you let her see Boha."
"I understand, Uncle Long." Wu Jie nodded and ran into the house.
As soon as Danmin saw Wu Jie, she excitedly hugged him, "Brother..." She called Wu Jie in a baby voice while hugging his neck and kissing him.
Wu Jie was still angry. Seeing that Nanxi was a little awkward, he didn't call her and waited for her to coax him.
Nanxi didn't speak to coax him this time. Instead, when she saw Baru walk in, she deliberately raised her voice and said, "Hubby, I ate a little too much. Let's go out for a walk."
Baru pursed his lips, knowing that she was deliberately teasing Wu Jie, and walked over to her mischievously, holding her hand, "Okay, baby, let's go."
"Xixi. Do you really not like me anymore? My schedule has been moved up and I'm leaving now, but you ignore me." Wu Jie finally couldn't hold it in anymore and spoke unhappily when the two were about to leave.
Nanxi smiled and turned around, "Oh. So you saw me. I thought you didn't see me."
"I'm still angry. Can't you just comfort me?" Wu Jie said uncomfortably with a cold face.
"Only children need to be coaxed. If you admit that you are a child, I will coax you." Nanxi was still standing at the door, raising her chin and looking at the young boy not far away opposite.
"I'm not a child, I'm a man." Wu Jie said angrily, "If you don't want to coax me, forget it." He stuffed Danmin into Zhan Peng's arms.
"Okay, I'm leaving now. Uncle Long, Uncle Zhan, the people who will pick up Xixi and Aunt Yana will be here the day after tomorrow. Just arrange for someone to take them there. I'll be back as soon as I finish the competition. Wait for me."
Wu Jie straightened his clothes, stood up straight, and saluted them.
"Go ahead, kid." Zhan Peng rubbed Wu Jie's head.
When he reached the door, Baru kicked him on the butt and said, "Be good, don't really make your father divorced. Your mother would do anything for you two brothers."
"I understand, Uncle Long." Wu Jie responded.
"Come on, Ajie. If you win the prize, I'll give you a huge surprise. How about it?" Nanxi finally stopped teasing Wu Jie and asked by pinching his little face.
"Okay, Xixi, wait, I will definitely come back with the prize." After he said that, he secretly squeezed Nanxi's hand, afraid that Balu would find out, and ran out like a gust of wind.
"You've been making such a fuss for so long, are you just waiting for this kid?" Zhan Peng put Dan Min on the sofa and let her play by herself, then patted the biscuit crumbs on his hands.
"Let's go, it's time to get back to work. I can't stand this shabby place any longer. There's nothing here, and there's always gunfire and fireworks. My daughter is so scared that she'll cry if I don't sleep next to her at night."
Baru nodded and said, "Let's go. I have to see Ajie take off safely before I can feel at ease."
"You are destined to worry." Zhan Peng glared at him.
The two walked to the door and watched Wu Jie's car drive towards the military helipad.
"Along, we must take good care of this kid and raise him up. Myanmar's future depends on him." Zhan Peng said with emotion.
The person next to him didn't respond. Zhan Peng turned around and nudged his shoulder with his fist. "What's wrong? Why are you staring blankly? Hurry up and get in the car. It's time to leave."
Baru suddenly turned his head and looked at Zhan Peng, "Something is wrong."
"What's wrong?"
"I can't explain it, but I just feel like everything that happened today is wrong." He looked up at the dark clouds gathering above his head. "It's going to get dark early today."
Zhan Peng was confused, "What do you mean?"
"Zhan Peng, Brother Jin once said that before a battle, you must take the sensitivity of every nerve ending seriously. If you feel something is wrong, there must be a problem. At this time, you must hide your vital points."
The man opposite him had blazing black eyes and was silent for a few seconds. "What's your weak spot?"
"What else could it be? My wife and kids." Zhan Peng responded, then looked at Balu seriously, and the two of them understood each other tacitly.
"I'll ask Ajie to come back, you go in and explain first." After saying this, Baru called Wu Jie.
"Uncle Long, I just left, don't miss me too much." Wu Jie joked with a smile.
"Ajie. Come back first, there is something." After saying that, Balu hung up the phone and strode inside.
