Upon hearing this, Shen Mu Ning burst into laughter.
So why didn't anyone remind her that this is the procedure for entering the military region?
It seems my detention this time was justified.
It's not that Shen Mu Ning didn't know; it's just that when she went to the Jilin Provincial Military Region before, she was always picked up and dropped off by car and never went through any checks by sentries.
Yan Bin and the others simply forgot to remind her to call ahead.
Now that the blunder has been made, there's no point in blaming her; she'll just have to bear the consequences herself.
However, even if someone dies, being detained and interrogated is absolutely unacceptable.
So Shen Mu Ning said frankly, "Actually, I came to see Commander-in-Chief Sun. I'm not a bad person. Why don't you call her first to confirm?"
"Ha, don't lie too outrageously!"
Almost the instant she finished speaking, sarcastic remarks came at her.
Jiang Lei went all the way and had her taken away.
Shen Mu Ning, who hadn't originally intended to fight back, couldn't care less about anything else and could only stand still, saying softly:
"I urge you to call this number and see if I'm lying to you."
Then, she recited a string of numbers, which was the phone number for Sun Wu's office.
Seeing her so confident and certain, Jiang Lei and the others were completely baffled.
He paused what he was doing and dialed the number with some skepticism.
"Ring~~ Ring~~" The call was answered after only two rings.
"Hello, this is the Lingbei Theater Command!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Lei and the others instinctively dilated their pupils and held their breath.
They really didn't expect that the phone number would actually be connected to Commander-in-Chief Sun's office.
When no one answered on the other end of the phone, the person spoke again: "Hello? Is anyone listening?"
Jiang Lei stammered as he began to give a brief overview of the whole affair.
But as soon as he mentioned Shen Mu Ning's name, he was interrupted by Wu Shuo on the other end:
"You mean Shen Mu Ning was at the military area gate? A very pretty teenage girl?"
Despite having sharp hearing and eyesight, the phone call was actually leaked, allowing everyone to hear the whole thing.
Shen Mu Ning was slightly speechless. How could she be considered a little girl?
Jiang Lei gave her a serious look before confirming, "Yes!"
After that, the misunderstanding was naturally cleared up, and Wu Shuo came personally to pick the person up.
Even after she left, Jiang Lei and the others were still somewhat dazed, truly not yet recovered from that blunder.
Who would have thought they would be so audacious as to capture the Commander-in-Chief's relatives alive?
However, I heard that the Commander-in-Chief is all alone, and this Comrade Shen doesn't seem to be a relative of the Si family either!
The thought only flashed through his mind for a moment. If he couldn't understand it, he couldn't understand it. There was no need to get hung up on it.
Shen Mu Ning followed Wu Shuo and entered Sun Wu's office without any hindrance, where they waited in the guest room next door.
Since she hadn't given prior notice that she was coming, Sun Wu, as the commander-in-chief of the First War Zone, naturally didn't have time to come see her immediately.
Fortunately, she didn't have to wait long before Sun Wu hurriedly entered the house.
"Xiao Ning, why didn't you tell me you were coming? I could have had Wu Shuo pick you up!"
He then carefully examined her body to make sure she wasn't injured before stopping.
Shen Mu Ning pursed her lips slightly, smiled shyly, and instead of answering his question, she explained her purpose for coming.
She just hoped that something else would distract her cheap grandfather and make him forget about her embarrassing incident.
"Grandpa, I was in such a hurry to ask for your help that I forgot to tell you beforehand! I promise I won't forget next time."
Sure enough, when Sun Wu heard that his granddaughter wanted his help, he stopped bringing up the previous matter.
He wouldn't miss the rare opportunity to help and support his younger relatives.
"Okay, sure. Tell me what you need to do, and how I can help you."
In fact, Sun Wu could guess a thing or two about Shen Mu Ning's purpose in coming.
She's been busy with the Furong organization lately, so her asking for my help must be for that reason.
Eliminating hostile forces is a matter of national importance and his duty. He will agree to any request as long as it is not excessive.
Seeing this, Shen Mu Ning leaned closer to Sun Wu and whispered:
"Grandpa, this is a handwritten letter from Uncle Yan and the others to you. Please take a look first, and then we can continue."
After saying that, she took out a letter from her bosom and handed it to him.
After receiving the letter and seeing the handwriting clearly, Sun Wu also dropped his amiable expression when facing Shen Mu Ning and instantly became serious.
His expression remained unchanged as he read the letter, leaving Shen Mu Ning unable to fathom his thoughts. She could only sit quietly and drink her tea.
Before long, Sun Tzu, after reading the letter, gave an affirmative answer.
"feasible!"
Seeing that he agreed to this seemingly unreliable plan without even asking her, Shen Mu Ning was slightly surprised.
You should know that it took Yan Bin and the others a lot of persuasion to get their consent.
How come Sun Tzu passed the test so easily?
Actually, this shows that Shen Mu Ning doesn't quite understand Sun Tzu's mindset.
With no children of his own and Shen Mu Ning being the only heir in the Sun family, the family was facing a situation where the family was empty-handed.
Even before they recognized each other, he had already planned to hold a family reunion banquet for her after she came to Liaoning Province.
People need to know that Shen Mu Ning has someone backing her up.
Of course, if this opportunity could be used to let her meet more talented young people, that would also be a good choice.
It's just a matter of making the family reunion banquet a bit bigger. What is there for him to be unwilling to do?
Whether the purpose of holding the banquet can be achieved is up to fate.
Sun Wu agreed, and Shen Mu Ning also sent a message to Yan Bin and his team in Ji Province, hinting that they should proceed according to the plan.
So time slipped away unnoticed as Shen Mu Ning leisurely strolled around with her adoptive grandmother every day, looking at things here and there, and arranging banquets along the way.
During this period, well-informed people in Lingbei learned of two major pieces of news in succession.
One of them was Sun Wu, the commander-in-chief of the Lingbei War Zone, who was fortunate enough to regain his past memories and find the only bloodline left by his elder brother.
And a family reunion banquet will be held on October 22.
The prominent families in Liaoning Province have all received banquet invitations and are just waiting for that day to arrive.
Those unaware of the Sun family's inner workings, upon learning of this, couldn't help but make a few sarcastic remarks:
"Is it really necessary to make such a big fuss about finding a grandniece?"
Immediately, someone knowledgeable explained to him that Sun Tzu had no children, and this grandniece was his only blood-related descendant.
At this point, no one complained anymore, and everyone started preparing gifts.
Some families with ulterior motives even had their outstanding younger members groom themselves early on, hoping to win Shen Mu Ning's favor.
After all, the scale of the family reunion banquet shows how much Sun Tzu valued the younger generation.
If his own descendant were to become his nephew's son-in-law, Sun Wu would certainly not hesitate to use his resources and connections to pave the way for him.
