After dinner, everyone sat in the living room chatting.
He Chenglin said, "Xicheng, your injury hasn't healed yet, so don't go back to the army. Stay home and recover first. Just have Zhendong keep an eye on things during this time."
Yu Huiru also said, "Yes, Aunt Hui can take good care of your health at home."
Han Xiao said, "I think Xi Cheng should stay at my house to recover. Yu Han and Jin Yu both know medicine, so they would be better able to help Xi Cheng recuperate."
Han Yixian also said, "Yes, it's a good opportunity to recuperate with my uncle."
Sitting next to him, Liu Zhongyi said, "I'm fine now after staying in the hospital for a few days. Xicheng's injury is more serious."
He Yuhan said, "It would be better for Brother Huo to stay home and recover. Uncle also really needs to take good care of his health, so I'll take care of both of you at the same time."
Moreover, it's not advisable to leak the news that Brother Huo and I have returned. If Brother Huo goes to the hospital to recuperate, the news will inevitably leak out.
With two doctors in the family, it's convenient for Brother Huo to have his wounds dressed.
Han Xiao nodded and said, "Yu Han is right. Let's do as Yu Han says. The weather is warmer now, and the side rooms in the house are habitable. I think your family should stay here for now. This will help to better mislead Han Sheng and the others."
"If you all suddenly return to the compound, the neighbors will inevitably ask you about Yuhan and the others. If the child accidentally lets something slip, it will cause trouble. Han Sheng will also become suspicious if he gets the news."
He Chenglin nodded and said, "Alright, we'll be bothering you here for a while."
The main house and several side rooms of the house are all habitable. He Chenglin and his wife had already moved into the Han family's house with their child earlier, so now they just need to prepare a guest room for He Zhenhua and Huo Xicheng.
He Yuhan found some extra blankets at home, and Han Yixian helped her the whole time, worried that his wife would get tired.
He Zhendong had a meal at Han's house but didn't plan to stay overnight; he wanted to go straight back to his unit. Before leaving, he told Huo Xicheng, "Xicheng, take good care of your injury. Don't worry about work. The sooner you recover, the sooner you can go back. I'm relieved that Yuhan is taking care of your health."
Huo Xicheng said, "Don't worry, my injury will heal quickly. Even if I can't participate in training, I can still handle some paperwork. I can go back in a few days."
He Zhendong and Huo Xicheng shared a room, so He Zhendong could take care of Huo Xicheng at night.
He Yuhan changed Huo Xicheng's dressing and checked his injury. The wound wasn't healing well from the day's travel, and He Yuhan told Huo Xicheng to rest well for the next few days.
He Yuhan is back, so of course she has to take care of the child. The child is sleeping soundly in his mother's arms, blowing little bubbles, which is especially cute.
He Yuhan put the sleeping child on the kang (a heated brick bed) before going to the back bathroom to take a shower.
Han Yixian had already prepared bathwater for his wife, He Yuhan, but she only offered a token amount. She planned that the two of them would take a proper bath in the space when they rested that night.
When it was time to rest in the evening, Han Yi closed the door first, and He Yuhan then brought her husband and child into the space.
He Yuhan took a refreshing hot bath in the space, washing herself thoroughly clean.
Han Yixian was the same, having washed away all the dust and grime.
The two of them didn't stay in the space for long; after taking a shower, they left with the child.
Only when the couple lay comfortably on their own kang (heated brick bed) did they truly feel at ease.
The child was to He Yuhan's right, and Han Yixian was to He Yuhan's left. Han Yixian firmly opposed the child separating him from his wife.
Han Yixian hugged He Yuhan tightly and let out a long sigh of relief, saying, "Finally home. With the child by my side and my wife in my arms, I finally feel at ease."
He Yuhan leaned closer to her husband and said, "Home is a safe haven. Only when I get home do I feel safe."
Brother Yi, are you going to work tomorrow?
Han Yixian said, "I won't go to work for the next few days. If I go to work, Han Sheng will definitely get the news and become suspicious. After all, I wouldn't go back to work if I hadn't found you."
I also want to stay home and spend some quality time with you and our son.
"Our dads have been going to work these past few days, and they should be fine going tomorrow. Once we get news from the south and everything's arranged, we won't have to worry so much."
He Yuhan said, "I think Han Sheng will definitely get suspicious if he doesn't see Han Yichuan return soon. He might come knocking on our door soon."
Han Yixian said, "Then let's wait for him at home. Once he arrives, we won't be able to go back."
He Yuhan asked, "Is there still no news about the investigation into Han Sheng's mother?"
Han Yixian said, "There is no news yet. I have also sent people to investigate, including the Han family's former enemies and some old acquaintances. We will have news soon."
Han Sheng was very uneasy as his second son did not return home. He comforted himself that his son had missed the right train and would arrive home in a couple of days.
Some of the others who went with the second son have returned. They went their separate ways, some early and some late. Perhaps the son returned that night.
But Han Sheng waited a few more days and Han Yichuan still didn't return. There was also no news of the remaining people. At this point, Han Sheng had a very bad feeling.
He was anxious and restless, and went straight to his mother's place without going to work in the morning.
When Mrs. Lu saw her son rushing in, she asked, "Why are you here at this hour? Why didn't you go to work?"
Han Sheng said anxiously, "Mom, Yi Chuan still hasn't come back. According to the time he last contacted me, he should have been home by now, but now there's been no news of him. Even several of the people who went north with him haven't returned."
