Gu Moli escorted Su Xingran back to school. After leaving the school gate, he went to inquire about Wei Zilin. At this point, Wei Zilin might have already been discovered to be in trouble, and Gu Moli only had a few days left before his term expired and he had to return to his unit.
When Gu Moli arrived at the gate of the military compound, the guards on duty remembered him. The last time Gu Moli came, he was with Commander Gao, and he had also come with Huang Taihe before. They all knew that Gu Moli was Commander Huang's cousin.
Having successfully entered the compound, Gu Moli was not only there to gather information, but also to retrieve the documents Commander Gao had instructed him to take back to his unit. With only a few days left before his return, it was perfectly normal for Gu Moli to be there now; after all, they weren't important documents, just things he needed to deliver to his superiors.
Gu Moli went to Commander Gao's office, where Huang Taihe was also there. They were both surprised to see Gu Moli, and Huang Taihe asked, "Moli, is there something you need?"
"Commander Gao, didn't you tell me to come and pick up a document before I returned to the unit? I'm returning to the unit in a few days, so I'm here today to pick up the document," Gu Moli said to Commander Gao.
Commander Gao slapped his forehead. "Right, I almost forgot about this if you hadn't mentioned it. Take this document back to your unit's leader. It's not a classified document; you can just hand it over to him."
Remembering his purpose for being there, Gu Moli spoke up to Huang Taihe, saying, "Brother Taihe, last night my sister-in-law was attacked and injured with a wooden stick on her way home."
Huang Taihe paused for a moment, then stood up in surprise. "Mo Li, what did you just say? You mean Mo Ting's wife was beaten up last night? How badly was she injured?"
Commander Gao never expected such a thing to happen. "Who would be so bold as to attack someone on the road, especially a military wife?"
"Xingran rescued my sister-in-law, and she checked her injuries. She said her back was badly swollen from being hit twice with wooden sticks, and since she's a woman, her injuries must have been quite severe. Her knees were also badly swollen and bruised, as she fell to her knees when she was hit."
"Those thugs who beat people up have been arrested. A passerby saw what happened and went to the police station to report it. We'll have to go to the police station to find out what really happened," Gu Moli briefly recounted the events.
"How is Xingran?" "How is Comrade Su Xingran?" Commander Gao and Huang Taihe asked Gu Moli at the same time.
Gu Moli swallowed hard, recalling how Su Xingran had beaten those three thugs. "Xingran is alright. Taihe, you know Xingran is back in her hometown learning martial arts from Brother Duan. It's a good thing she was there, otherwise my sister-in-law might have met with something terrible last night."
Commander Gao looked at Huang Taihe, who recalled what he had seen at the police station last time. Huang Taihe's lips twitched; he felt that Mo Li might have been holding back some things. This time, it seemed likely that none of those thugs would be unharmed!
Huang Taihe ignored Commander Gao's gaze. What could he say? Could he possibly ask Mo Li if that hoodlum was alright? Hearing Gu Mo Li mention Xiao Xue being beaten, Huang Taihe recalled the news he had just heard.
Huang Taihe casually remarked, "This morning, Wei Zilin from the Wei family was beaten up. I heard he was seriously injured; both his arms and legs were broken, and his face was completely disfigured. If it weren't for the fact that I've raised this child for so many years, even Old Master Wei and the others probably wouldn't recognize him as Wei Zilin."
