Chapter 289 It’s not like, it’s love.
As soon as Shen Que finished speaking, Sui Ning reached out and slapped him.
"You little brat, why would you take your wife on an adventure?"
"What if something goes wrong? How are you going to explain it to me!?"
"You really are! How come you're even more fierce than your father?"
After being slapped a few times, Shen Que said aggrievedly, "Mom, even with Yiyi's skills, I may not be able to beat her."
Sui Ning slapped him again: "That's not a reason for you to take her on an adventure! How can your sweet and tender wife go to such a dangerous place!"
"..." Shen Que rubbed the place where he was hit and muttered, "Then why don't you take care of me?"
Sui Ning ignored him, then got up and sat down in front of the computer, ready to see what was in the USB drive.
Shen Que curled his lips, thinking that his family status seemed to have declined again.
"How did Song Wei become like this?" Sui Ning said as she opened the USB drive. "When I met her as a child, I thought she was quite sensible."
Shen Que moved a stool and sat next to his mother, then whispered, "Although this may sound a bit harsh, some people are bad at heart."
Sui Ning sighed, but still felt a little sad about her long-time comrade betraying the country.
As the contents of the USB flash drive appeared before her eyes, Sui Ning's face gradually darkened.
Shen Que remained silent until Sui Ning got so angry that he slammed the table.
"Song Zhaoqing had been in the army for so many years, yet he could still do such a thing! More than 30 of his comrades died unjustly!"
"Martyrs? Do they deserve it?!"
It's no wonder Sui Ning was so angry. Song Zhaoqing and Ren Qing were in the same batch as them. They had known each other for decades, trained together, and went on missions together, and had experienced so much.
Even though the mission eight years ago was full of weirdness, she never suspected that Song Zhaoqing and Ren Qing had betrayed her.
They even tried their best to persuade their superiors to allow them to be recognized as martyrs.
As a result, the things in the USB drive are like slaps returning to my face after several years.
Shen Que understood his mother's feelings, but also explained the purpose of their visit this time: "Yiyi's purpose of coming this time is to vindicate those sacrificed warriors so that they can return home with dignity."
Sui Ning: "This is a must. A hero may not seek fame, but he must not be wronged."
After confirming his mother's attitude, Shen Que also breathed a sigh of relief.
He checked the time, then stood up and said, "Then I'll go back and accompany Yiyi first."
"Go ahead. I don't have time to take care of you these days. Take Yiyi for a walk around the neighborhood and wait for my news." Now that the evidence has been obtained, some things cannot be delayed.
When leaving his mother's dormitory, Shen Que saw Song Wei being transferred to the place where prisoners were held by several soldiers.
After seeing Shen Que from a distance, he shouted at him regardless of anything, his voice was sharp and hoarse, and filled with strong hatred.
As she spoke, Song Wei blamed Meng Zhiyi for all her unfortunate life.
Hearing this, Shen Que's eyes darkened and he turned and walked towards her.
"Can I say a few words to her?" Shen Que asked the two warriors.
"Don't talk too long." The warriors knew that Shen Que was Sui Ning's son, so they were quite accommodating.
After putting Song Wei down, the two warriors turned around and walked a few steps to the side.
Shen Que stood in front of her with a cold look.
Song Wei sat on the ground, looking at the man in front of her with a fierce look, the man she had liked since childhood.
She has been haunted by that dream since she could remember.
In the dream, she was the protagonist and everyone surrounded her.
No matter what she did, those people would never think it was wrong.
Even Shen Que, the heir of the Shen family, was obsessed with himself like a possessed person.
Song Wei thought that it was God's favor to her and that everything would develop according to her dream.
But I don’t know when everything changed.
Things that belonged to her were lost one by one.
"If I hear you say a bad word about Yiyi again, you'll lose your tongue." Shen Que lowered his eyes, with a cold light in his eyes.
Song Wei looked at him, tears welling up in her eyes. She asked in a hoarse voice, "Why? Why do you like Meng Zhiyi so much? It was obviously me who knew you first. It was obviously me who tried very hard to like you too!"
"You're wrong, I don't like Meng Zhiyi." Shen Que looked at her coldly, his tone calm without a trace of emotion.
Song Wei's eyes lit up slightly, and when she was about to say something, she heard Shen Que continue, "I love her."
“???” Song Wei’s eyes suddenly darkened, as if dead.
Then, she suddenly laughed: "Love? Hahahaha...you love her?"
"You actually admit that you love her!"
"Then what am I?"
Shen Que: "There was nothing between us. I told you this more than once, right? I also clearly warned you not to provoke Meng Zhiyi again, but you didn't seem to listen."
Song Wei suddenly got excited: "I thought you told me not to provoke her because you wanted to protect me!"
Shen Que: "You are overthinking it. If I want to protect someone, I will keep that person by my side."
"So, every time Zhou Kai troubled Meng Zhiyi, you would always show up. Every time I deliberately made her look bad in front of me, you would take her away despite being laughed at by others. Every time, every time, every time she had problems, you would protect her!"
"Hahahaha, as long as I still foolishly think that you are protecting me?"
"So you didn't really dislike her from the beginning? You were also lying when you said you wanted to break off the engagement with her!"
Shen Que looked at Song Wei expressionlessly and did not refute anything she said.
It was true that he didn't like Meng Zhiyi before, and it was also true that he didn't want her to get hurt.
Looking back now, what he hated was the soul that occupied the body; he wanted to protect her, even if he had lost his memory, but it was an instinctive choice he made because of that body.
Everything has a traceable path, but he just doesn't realize it.
Fortunately, fortunately she is back.
Shen Que gathered his thoughts, and when he looked at Song Wei again, there was no emotion in his eyes.
"You're on your own."
After saying that, he turned and left, leaving Song Wei paralyzed sitting on the ground, crying loudly.
Shen Que and Wang Xiao drove to the hotel. After he told them that they could rest tomorrow, he went straight upstairs to find Meng Zhiyi.
In the room, Meng Zhiyi was already asleep. Shen Que simply washed up and then climbed onto the bed quietly.
Meng Zhiyi realized it was him in a daze, then turned over and went into Shen Que's arms.
"Why are you back?" she murmured.
Shen Que hugged her, feeling satisfied immediately, and replied softly, "I can't sleep without you by my side."
"Then hold me..." Meng Zhiyi said, and leaned into his arms.
Shen Que lowered his eyes, his voice becoming a little hoarse: "Baby, stop pushing..."
