Upon hearing this, Huo Beian chuckled, "Don't worry, I'll treat my wife very well. You don't need to worry about it."
After saying that, Huo Beian stepped forward, pulled Song Ning into his arms, and hugged her tightly. He then introduced her to Richard, "Richard, let me introduce you. This is my wife, Song Ning."
Although Richard didn't understand the words, he could guess the gist of it from their intimate gestures and couldn't help but give a thumbs-up in approval, "Good!"
"Honey, I'm here to pick up Richard to take him to the army. Did you come looking for me?"
Song Ning nodded. "Yes. I came to find you..."
For some reason, she found it impossible to utter the word "divorce" the moment she saw Huo Beian.
I thought about it for a moment, then swallowed it back.
"Okay, we'll talk about it when we get back to the unit."
After saying that, he took Song Ning's hand.
At that moment, a man in his thirties, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a suit, carrying a bag, hurriedly squeezed through the crowd.
"Excuse me, could you move aside?"
He hurried over to Richard and said in fluent English, "Sorry, I just went to the toilet. Your bag is with me. Are you okay, Mr. Richard?"
Richard, seeing him, finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Just so-so."
Seeing the railway police officer and military officer in front of him, the man quickly stepped forward to shake hands and introduce himself, "Excuse me, I am Mr. Richard's translator, my name is Owen. I just went to the restroom and this misunderstanding happened, I'm really sorry."
Song Ning looked up at Owen in front of her and sensed that he had been somewhat evasive when he saw the officer's micro-expression.
Combined with the English he had just spoken to Richard, he said he had just gone to the toilet.
As we all know, the toilets on trains are closed when the train is about to arrive at the station. So where does this person go to use the toilet?
Her intuition told her that he must be lying.
"It's alright. Let's go, let's get off together."
Huo Beian, holding Song Ning's hand, along with Richard, Owen, and two soldiers, got off the train together.
Gu Tingzhou walked to the car door, watching their retreating figures in the distance, and couldn't help but shout, "Song Ning. Remember to call me if you need anything."
Song Ning turned around and gave him a sweet smile, "Okay. Brother Tingzhou. Take care."
Looking at her smile, Gu Tingzhou smiled back, feeling a warm feeling in his heart.
At this point, the man continued to shout, "Officer, I'm innocent! I didn't hit the expert! Let me go!"
As a result, Gu Tingzhou glared at him fiercely, "You may not have hit an expert, but you hit someone you shouldn't have. Take me away for questioning."
After he finished speaking, the two train police officers immediately took him away.
...
Huo Beian carried Song Ning's luggage with one hand and held her hand with the other, and the two walked side by side.
Huo Beian complained, "Why haven't I heard you mention having an older brother you grew up with? I think he clearly has ulterior motives towards you."
Song Ning was speechless. "We're not divorced yet, what could he possibly be up to?"
Huo Beian gripped his hand tighter. "Who can blame me when my wife is so outstanding? I'm really afraid that one day, my wife will be kidnapped by someone else."
Upon hearing this, Song Ning's heart skipped a beat. She thought that once they divorced, she wouldn't be his wife anymore, but she would wait until she returned to the army to say those words.
But then she suddenly remembered something, and quietly tiptoed to Huo Beian's ear, saying, "When you get to the army, don't tell anyone that I speak English."
"What does my wife mean?"
"I suspect there's something wrong with the translation, but I have no proof."
Huo Beian nodded in immediate agreement.
Actually, he had his suspicions on the bus. The translator was nowhere to be found, but he disappeared just when they got off the bus. There might be something fishy going on.
Regardless of whether the translator has any problems or not, having another person who can speak English is always a good thing.
"Okay, wife. I'll listen to you."
They arrived at the unit quickly.
Looking at the surroundings of the military base, Song Ning realized that the conditions were indeed quite harsh.
Moreover, the troops are located on the border, and can see snow-capped mountains and grasslands behind them. The scenery is quite nice, with a vast sky and open land. However, the transportation of supplies to the nearby area is not very convenient. In addition to training, the soldiers here also grow their own vegetables and grains and raise livestock to be self-sufficient.
Hobe An sent guards to settle Richard and Irwin in the army's guesthouse.
He then took Song Ning to the family compound where he lived.
This is a family compound specially prepared by the military for married officers. Although it is not very big, it is spacious enough.
When Huo Beian led Song Ning into the family compound, it caused a sensation.
Several women from the family compound also gathered around to watch, deliberately calling out, "Oh my, Xiao Huo, is this your wife? She's so beautiful."
"Yeah, you're really lucky, kid."
Huo Beian immediately smiled and quickly introduced them to Song Ning, "This is Battalion Commander Zhang's girlfriend, Sister Li, Li Xiaoyue. That's Deputy Regiment Commander Gao's girlfriend, Sister Qian, Qian Aihong..."
Song Ning was a little embarrassed, but she still greeted them warmly.
Qian Aihong stepped forward, took Song Ning's hand, and said very warmly, "Little Song, I've often heard Xiao Huo mention you, and you are indeed beautiful in person today. If you need anything in the future, just come to me. Don't be shy. My husband and Xiao Huo are very close."
