Qi Hehua was slightly excited when he heard the familiar voice again in his consciousness. Xie Ming, who had not shown himself, naturally knew that he had sensed the changes in himself.
Yes, Xie Ming had almost completely cured his chronic illness when they last met.
Although it doesn't extend lifespan, it spares the elderly from the daily pain and suffering.
After realizing Xie Ming's extraordinary abilities, Qi Hehua still followed his conscience and confirmed several questions, all of which were related to national security.
When he saw the treasures in his future "grandson's" hands, his tiger-like eyes shone with an extraordinary light.
Xie Ming then told the old man that Xie's mother's father was also a martyr.
However, after her father was honored, her mother could not bear the abuse from her husband's family, so she abandoned the child in an orphanage and remarried.
Having raised orphans before, Qi Hehua knew the hardships those children faced. Thinking of Xie's mother's tragic fate, he felt a pang of heartache and agreed without hesitation.
Mission accomplished. Xie Ming altered and deleted parts of the old man's memory, working late into the night to reconcile the key details.
The next day, Qi Hehua did not wake up at the usual time; he woke up much later than usual.
The guard responsible for his safety saw that the old commander had not gotten up for a long time, and his alarm bells were ringing. He didn't care about anything else and hurriedly went to his bedroom to knock on the door.
"commander!"
"commander!"
I called out twice, but there was still no response.
Their commander does indeed have a chronic illness, but he has always been sharp of hearing and sight; the knocking on the door just now was quite loud.
The guard sensed something was wrong and quickly broke down the door.
He looked anxiously at the bed and saw the person lying on it slowly wake up and turn to look at him.
Noticing the guard's embarrassment and worry, Qi Hehua gently spoke up to defuse the situation: "Xiao Zhou!"
The guard, still looking tense, stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Qi Hehua sat up in bed and said, "Yes! No!"
These words confused the guard.
"Go and fetch the army medic!"
The guard didn't dare to delay and went to make a phone call as soon as he left the room.
Qi Hehua propped himself up and slowly sat up, leaning against the backrest.
He stared blankly ahead in disbelief, his memories, which had once vanished, now returning.
He and Hongying originally had a child, and they planned to get married after they unexpectedly got together.
Unfortunately, before they could submit their report, the two received assignments to go abroad. Due to the tight schedule, they had no time to deal with their personal matters and postponed their wedding.
Unexpectedly, the task was too arduous, and his wife only discovered something was wrong with her body when she was four months pregnant. He immediately prepared to report the situation and wait for new instructions.
But it was also at that time that a traitor appeared at the liaison station, forcing them to sever contact with their superiors.
Afterwards, the two evaded enemy checks several times because of the wife's pregnancy, and they even used the pregnant woman's identity to send messages out.
The couple lived in constant fear from pregnancy to childbirth, but thankfully the child is healthy.
Their identities were exposed shortly after the wife finished her postpartum confinement period.
They immediately prepared to retreat, with Qi Hehua taking his child and wife and acting separately.
Unexpectedly, he was surrounded and seriously injured, and as a result, he suffered amnesia and forgot everything that happened during that time.
Not long after he returned to his unit, news of his wife's sacrifice came back.
During their time in hiding, they were in danger and afraid that their messages would be intercepted, so they dared not mention the child.
Later, due to amnesia, no one in the military knew that the two had a child.
"Waaah..."
Qi Hehua recalled the scene when he entrusted his child to a villager in the mountains and asked him to take the child and escape for his life. He cried like a wild beast, heartbroken.
The doctor and guards who had just entered didn't know what had happened either. They could only surround him and comfort him softly. It took them a long time to calm him down.
After everyone calmed down, Qi Hehua slowly recounted what happened more than 60 years ago.
Decades have passed since then, and many people and things have changed, but it's not impossible to find someone if you really want to.
After all, Qi Hehua had obtained very clear information about the person who took the child; it turned out that the person who took the child was a drug collector from J City who came to the southwest.
Soon, calls came directly from the southwest to J City, and a group of elderly people launched a thorough search for the missing person in J City after receiving the news.
Xie Ming kept track of the progress in the southwest, and he was relieved when they found the orphanage where his mother had lived.
Then, he turned his attention to Xie Qingqing. Xie Qingqing's account hadn't been banned yet, and the situation she faced wasn't difficult to resolve.
So he didn't interfere much and let her handle it.
After learning from Assistant Xu that Ji Mu had disappeared, Cui Ruxue abandoned her disappearance act and immediately appeared at the school. Her disappearance stunt fizzled out before it even gained traction.
Cui Ruxue learned about Ji Mu's situation from Assistant Xu, and then she also learned about Xie Qingqing's family background. In the past few days, she also investigated the Xie family and realized that it was a wealthy family that was no less powerful than the Ji family. Naturally, she felt both envious and jealous.
Upon returning to school and seeing Xie Qingqing, who was even more radiant than before, Cui Ruxue's heart was twisted with jealousy.
She quickly went up and stopped Xie Qingqing, who was trying to enter the teaching building.
"Stop right there!"
Cui Ruxue stopped the people because she wanted Xie Qingqing to reveal Ji Mu's whereabouts.
She knew very well that without Ji Mu, she would be nothing at all.
"You were looking for me?"
Upon seeing the person who arrived, a fleeting look of disgust crossed Xie Qingqing's eyes.
As soon as the two stood still, students began to approach one after another, tugging at their ears to listen to what was happening.
Many of them had heard the rumors circulating in the school and knew about the rivalry between Xie and Cui.
Seeing the live version, they all took out their phones and quietly called their friends to come and see what was going on.
