Yao Hua was taken aback by his sudden remark and didn't know how to respond for a moment.
"I know I was wrong, and I promise I'll never do anything so stupid again. Huahua, please give me another chance?"
Political Commissar Yu was clearly getting anxious when he saw that Yao Hua was not speaking.
Although Yao Hua treats him very well every day now.
But the more he did this, the more afraid he became.
Because Yao Hua was genuinely just taking care of him, he could clearly sense that Yao Hua was deliberately keeping her distance from him every day.
"I……"
"Political Commissar Yu!"
Just as Yao Hua was about to speak, she was interrupted by a young soldier who ran over.
Commissar Yu was almost furious. He turned his head with a cold face to look at the person running over. This kid had better have something important to tell him.
The man, panting heavily, didn't notice Political Commissar Yu's cold face and said directly to Yao Hua, "Comrade Yao Hua, Battalion Commander Lu's wife called looking for you."
Upon hearing that Jiang Yue had called her, Yao Hua immediately replied, "I understand, thank you, I'll be there soon."
After saying that, Yao Hua looked at Political Commissar Yu and said, "I'll take you back first."
Seeing Political Commissar Yu like this, Yao Hua was worried about him going upstairs alone.
"Your sister-in-law might have something urgent to tell you. Go answer the phone first. My injury is almost healed. You can walk back slowly by yourself. I'll wait for you downstairs. I'll come upstairs when you get back. Don't worry about me."
Political Commissar Yu knew what Yao Hua was worried about.
Yao Hua thought for a moment, worried that Jiang Yue might have something urgent to tell her, and quickly nodded, "I'll be back soon."
Fearing that Political Commissar Yu would have to wait too long, Yao Hua ran to the gatehouse as fast as she could.
"Yueyue, you were looking for me?"
When she answered the phone, Yao Hua was panting heavily from running so fast.
"Huahua, what's wrong? Why do you sound so breathless?" Jiang Yue's voice sounded worried on the other end of the phone.
"I was afraid you needed me urgently, so I ran a little faster. I'm fine, Yueyue, don't worry."
Yao Hua quickly offered an explanation.
Hearing that she was alright, Jiang Yue was relieved. Then she told Yao Hua about the upcoming school exams. After finishing the story, Jiang Yue said to Yao Hua...
"Hua Hua, this exam isn't important, you don't need to come back."
I've been feeling uneasy these past couple of days, like something's about to happen. Hua Hua, you really need to take good care of yourself these next few days. Try not to leave the family compound if you can avoid it.
Ordinary people can't enter the family compound. Yao Hua was inside with Political Commissar Yu, so she was very safe.
"I understand, Yueyue. I'll stay home and not go anywhere these next two days."
Yao Hua is very well-behaved. Jiang Yue told her to stay at home and she would never run around.
After giving Yao Hua her instructions, Jiang Yue felt relieved.
Yao Hua was in a hurry to go back and pick up Political Commissar Yu. She said a few words to Jiang Yue, then hung up the phone and ran back to find Political Commissar Yu.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yue told her grandmother and went upstairs to continue reading.
Lu Jingnian went out early this morning and hasn't returned yet. Jiang Yue doesn't know what he's been up to, but she didn't find any other aches or pains on her body, so she knows Lu Jingnian is probably not injured and isn't worried about him anymore.
She needs to learn two more life-saving skills because the day after tomorrow is the day when down jackets will be available for sale.
Jiang Yue agreed to go to the department store manager's request.
So she absolutely had to go out that day.
When they went upstairs, Jiang Yue told them not to let anyone come up and disturb her. She also told them that if she didn't come down for lunch, they didn't need to call her; she would come down on her own when she was done.
So when Grandma Jiang saw that Jiang Yue hadn't come down for lunch, she didn't go up to call her.
Jiang Yue became so engrossed in learning magic that she almost forgot herself completely.
Because Lu Jingnian didn't come back that night and didn't remind her to rest, she didn't sleep at all.
The next day, at noon.
After Lu Jingnian and Jiang Zheng returned.
Jiang Yue was alone in the room, and she had made a mess of things, leaving the room filled with smoke and fumes.
Jiang Yue, sporting dark circles under her eyes, squinted as she looked at Lu Jingnian and Jiang Zheng as they entered.
"Husband, brother, you're back."
"Yueyue, Lao Lu isn't here. What were you doing all alone in the room?"
The room was filled with smoke; if you didn't know better, you'd think you were in a heavenly palace.
"I just researched two tricks to fool people, but something went wrong, and that's it."
Jiang Yue scratched her head guiltily, "But the result is good, I have learned it."
It didn't happen again the next time I used it.
As she spoke, she picked up a strangely shaped talisman and said, "How about I let you try it?"
"No."
Jiang Zheng quickly waved his hand, "Judging from your appearance, you probably haven't slept all night. You don't need to rush to practice these things. We already caught the gray wolf last night."
You're safe now, you can get some sleep.
Jiang Zheng knew that Jiang Yue was practicing these things because of the dummy that Lu Jingnian had shown him last night.
Jiang Zheng was stunned and almost fainted from fright in the middle of the night.
"Did they catch the gray wolf?"
Jiang Yue was so shocked by the news that she was instantly wide awake and stared at Lu Jingnian, who was tidying up her table.
Is that Luo Xiao?
"no."
Lu Jingnian shook his head, not appearing particularly happy that the gray wolf had been captured.
It wasn't Luo Xiao after all?
Could it be that she really suspected the wrong person?
But Lu Jingnian's reaction is a bit off. Shouldn't he be happy that the gray wolf caught him?
Why do you look unhappy?
