"Wanwan, there's news about Xiaoyi!"
Yu Rou ran into Jiang Wan's office excitedly, shouting loudly.
Since receiving the news of Xiaoyi's disappearance half a month ago, Jiang Wan's behavior has exceeded everyone's expectations.
Many people believed that Jiang Wan must be very sad because her partner was missing, and would have no intention of working. So they could use the excuse that females were too weak to propose to the Female Association headquarters to replace the president.
But unexpectedly, Jiang Wan acted as if nothing had happened, going to get off work and coming home as usual every day, and handling the association's work without any mistakes.
Instead, those who wanted to laugh at her were slapped in the face.
Only Yu Rou and Bai Li who lived next door knew that every day after Jiang Wan got home from get off work, he would first look for Bai Li or Bai Zhuo to inquire about Yin Yi's news.
Yu Rou even moved in with Jiang Wan during this period, and she had a better understanding of Jiang Wan's thoughts beneath his calm surface.
Although Jiang Wan repeatedly emphasized that she was fine, if she was really fine, why would she take a shower with her clothes on? And why would she forget to brush her teeth a second time after having already done so?
As time went by, the domain control department still did not find any trace of Yin Yi and his group. More and more people believed that Yin Yi and his group must have been affected by the aftermath of the warship's self-explosion and had died.
Two days ago, the House of Representatives even summoned the top officials of the empire to discuss whether to continue to expend manpower and resources to search for the whereabouts of these people.
In the end, most people voted to abstain.
In the past few days, the searching troops have been withdrawn one after another.
Unexpectedly, when everyone had given up, news came that those people had been found. Bai Li told the news to Yu Rou immediately, and Yu Rou immediately came to report the good news to Jiang Wan.
"Really? Where are they? Are they okay? When will they be back?"
Jiang Wan immediately stood up and looked at Yu Rou in surprise, not even noticing that the chair behind him was knocked over.
"Yeah, Bai Li just called me and said that they've found Xiao Yi and the others, and the military is now discussing sending people to rescue them."
Yu Rou nodded vigorously, assuring Jiang Wan of the authenticity of the news.
"That's good."
Jiang Wan finally smiled for the first time in half a month, and his tense emotions finally relaxed. He sat back as if he had relieved some stress.
"Hey, be careful!"
Yu Rou quickly stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Wan's arm, preventing her from falling. After she regained her footing, she helped her pick up the fallen chair and let her sit down again.
"Thanks."
Jiang Wan smiled embarrassedly.
"Are you still so polite to me?"
Yu Rou gave her a cold look before returning to sit on the chair opposite.
"Now I finally have news about Xiaoyi and the others. It looks like I'll be able to attend your wedding soon."
"Okay, I'll definitely let you sit at the main table then, okay?"
After hearing the news that Yin Yi was still alive, Jiang Wan finally felt like joking.
"Of course."
Yu Rou raised her chin in a proud and coquettish manner. "Tell me, are there any newlyweds who have it as easy as you? You don't have to do anything, just show up on the wedding day. Bai Li and I have arranged everything for you. You should thank us."
"Okay, when Yin Yi comes back, I'll have him give you a big red envelope to thank you for your hard work, okay?"
"Of course we should. By the way, let's get off work early today. Bai Li's communication just now didn't specify where Xiao Yi was found, and the military is also discussing sending someone to rescue him. I guess we should know the result when we get home tonight."
"Okay, there aren't many things going on lately anyway, so we can handle it quickly. We'll go back early this afternoon."
When there is something you urgently want to know, going to work suddenly becomes extremely torturous. Even though the time is the same as before, Jiang Wan feels that time is passing particularly slowly today.
After she looked at the time for who knows how many times, it was finally time to get off work.
Jiang Wan put away the unfinished work in his hands without hesitation, planning to deal with it tomorrow, and packed up to get ready to leave work.
This was the first time in her career that she had to postpone the first day's work until the next day.
"Yu Rou, are you done with your work?"
When Yu Rou heard the sound, she looked up from her work and saw the time. It was just one minute past the end of get off work time.
She quickly put away the things in her hands, stood up and prepared to leave, "Okay, I'll be right there."
Today, the staff of the Female Association saw a strange scene. The new president and vice president, who worked overtime every day, actually left work on time for the first time.
"Is today a special day? The president and vice president aren't working overtime?"
"I don't know. It's just time to get off work, and they're already leaving?"
"Do we still have to work overtime?"
"No, the president and the others are gone. Who are we working overtime for?"
"That's right, let's go too."
"Yeah, let's pack up. It's still early. Let's go shopping. I haven't been shopping in a long time. Today I just happened to go shopping for some clothes. I'm almost out of clothes in my closet."
"Me too. Let's go shopping today and buy more. Otherwise, we don't know if we'll have another chance later. Ever since the new president, every day has been so busy."
"Although I'm a bit busier, I feel like my work now is more meaningful. It's not like before, when I felt confused every day and didn't know what I was doing."
"Okay, I'm done cleaning up. How long will you need?"
"Alright, alright, let's go."
......
"Cousin, how is it going? Where is Yin Yi now? Has the military sent anyone to rescue them?"
Late at night, Bai Li just returned home and saw that his living room was still brightly lit. After entering, Jiang Wan couldn't wait to speak before he sat down.
Jiang Wan, who originally thought he would hear good news, saw that Bai Li's face looked very ugly, with a dark look amidst fatigue. Anyone with eyes could tell at a glance that Bai Li was desperately trying to suppress the anger in his heart.
Yu Rou handed Bai Li a glass of water. Seeing him like this, she became worried: "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Bai Li took the water cup and drank it all, then said with a dark face: "Xiao Yi's location has been confirmed. It is on the desolate planet 1036, but the military does not plan to send anyone to rescue them."
"What?"
Jiang Wan and Yu Rou looked at each other in shock. "Since they've found them, why don't they send people to rescue them? What do those people in the military think? What did Marshal Bai Zhuo say?"
