Wu Meixia gave a thumbs up. She had seen the news in her unit's newspaper early that morning. In her many years of police work, she admired this kind of brave soldier the most. Every year, many police officers in the Public Security Bureau sacrifice their lives in the line of duty, so she was deeply moved.
She never expected that the anonymous hero in the newspaper was actually Xia Enruo's husband.
"Sister, as a soldier, he has to follow the organization's arrangements; it's his job duty."
“It’s rare to see someone so understanding. I’ve seen many families who don’t understand, but when you think about it, it makes sense. Nobody wants their loved ones or friends to get hurt. Here, sister, I’ll go to the hospital with you this afternoon. I want to see your husband.”
Wu Meixia now held Xia Enruo in higher esteem. She hadn't expected that her god-sister, though young, would have such profound thoughts, and that her god-sister's husband would be a war hero featured in the newspaper.
“Sister Meixia, we appreciate your kindness. However, I have to rush back to cook lunch for my husband after I finish cooking. He is currently in the recovery period and needs to pay extra attention to his diet. I will invite you to our home when he is able to stand up.”
Xia Enruo felt that Wu Meixia's timing was inappropriate. She knew that Wu Meixia meant well and wanted to visit Gu Shaoxuan, but he had undergone surgery and was unable to wear clothes, so it would be awkward for her to go.
"Okay, sister, once your husband gets a little better, you must call me 'sister,' because I want to see what my brother-in-law looks like! By the way, sister, I have two friends who also want to invite you to their homes for a banquet. They said they're fine with a higher price; they're all business people with money."
Xia Enruo was truly tempted. In the past, she would have agreed without hesitation, but given the current situation at home, she couldn't leave without someone, so she had to reluctantly refuse.
"Sister, I can't leave my family right now. I had to ask my comrades to take care of me for this meal all morning before I could come out. I just can't find the time to accept any more banquets lately."
Wu Meixia knew that Xia Enruo must have had her reasons for saying that; otherwise, why would she turn down such a lucrative business?
“Okay, sister, I’ve told them to wait. Remember, if you ever have any difficulties at home and need my help, be sure to come to me. Don’t be shy. Don’t forget, we’re sworn sisters.”
Xia Enruo saw Wu Meixia out of the kitchen. She felt that talking to Wu Meixia was really refreshing, and compared to Qiao Huizhen, they were worlds apart.
