"I'm back..."
Standing by the door, Wen Maidong felt distressed as he looked at the thinner Chen Yun. He felt that if possible, he didn't want to watch Chen Yun leave again.
"Yeah, I'm back... I'm so tired!"
Handing the luggage to Wen Maidong, Chen Yun comfortably sat on the sofa. Home is still the most comfortable!
"Is the matter resolved? Are there any troubles?"
"It's been resolved, but there are still a lot of troubles. Anyway, the military will handle it. I don't care about these things."
Leaning against the pillow, Chen Yun answered Wen Maidong's words. She was quite relaxed and at ease. People who didn't know the truth would really be fooled by Chen Yun's performance. Unfortunately, Wen Maidong knew Chen Yun best, so he naturally couldn't be fooled by her.
"Want to fool me again?"
"No, absolutely not."
"Then...why did you come back thinner? Don't think I'm blind."
Wen Maidong grew increasingly angry as he watched. Chen Yun's attitude was simply a deception. She'd lost weight and wasn't looking particularly energetic. Could she be safe this time? If she wasn't in trouble, would she be so late returning? If she wasn't in trouble, would he have been unable to get any news of her?
"Hey hey...don't be angry, I'm fine now, look."
"snort……"
Wen Maidong said that he didn't buy Chen Yun's tricks. It was always like this. She would do this every time she got angry.
"Okay, I promise I won't say that next time. Okay?"
To be honest, she was more afraid of scaring Wen Maidong. If he knew it was such a serious matter, he would definitely stop her actions. Grandpa's shield was gone, and Shen Yun said that he didn't feel safe at all and could only fool Wen Maidong.
"Remember not to let me know what happened, otherwise..."
Wen Maidong could only say this bitterly, and finally, with a distressed heart, he helped his own queen back to her room to rest. After they had rested their spirits and bodies, they could try their wits and courage again to see who would come out on top.
“OK…”
Shen Yun breathed a sigh of relief and said that everything was fine.
Lying in bed, before Wen Maidong could react, Shen Yun had already fallen asleep. Falling asleep instantly—this skill wasn't something most people could master. Wen Maidong sat beside him, watching the tired look on Shen Yun's face. He squeezed his wrist, which had shrunk by a size, and didn't dare to let go of his gaze, heartbroken. After a long silence, he covered Shen Yun with a blanket and left the room.
"Maiya, is Grandpa home yet? Give me the phone. I have something to ask you."
Wen Maidong still felt a little uneasy after he left. He called his sister and asked her to take it to Grandpa. He needed to ask Grandpa for clarification. There were some things that couldn't be fooled around like this.
"Maidong! Grandpa is very tired and needs to rest. We can talk about it the day after tomorrow!"
Wen Xunqing tried hard to change the subject. He didn't want to continue discussing this topic. If this brat found out, he wouldn't know how to make a scene. Thinking about it, Wen Xunqing tried hard to avoid the topic, resolutely not answering, not giving a direct answer.
"Grandpa... I see you don't sound tired at all. Let's not use such official language!"
"Then you little bastard, how do you know I'm not tired? Ask your sister if Grandpa is tired or not."
Wen Xunqing was furious when he heard this. He didn't want to be irritated by this brat. This time he called because of Niuniu. He forgot his grandfather's grandson just because he had a wife.
"Really? But, Grandpa, I want to know the truth."
"Grandpa... I want to know what happened to you this time. I asked Niuniu, but she refused to say anything. But I know you must have suffered a lot this time."
Wen Maidong looked off into the distance. He didn't want to be kept in the dark by his family. Even if he couldn't help, at least having a clue was better than guessing aimlessly on his own. Furthermore, since his grandfather was involved, he needed to understand exactly what was going on.
"Ah...it's just a plague. Once it's solved, you don't have to worry." Wen Xunqing sighed.
He knew this was the outcome. Well, now that it was out, he didn't have to dwell on it. It was resolved, and there were no aftereffects at all.
"Plague?" Wen Maidong's heart skipped a beat. He never thought it would be this.
The plague was highly contagious, and Grandpa and Niu Niu had been inside for such a long time. The danger was extraordinary, and Wen Maidong was terrified. He had never imagined that he would have to solve such a problem. He had never imagined that the higher-ups would let Niu Niu and Grandpa take such risks.
"I've said enough. Okay, the higher-ups won't let me talk about it. It's been handled, so there's no need for you to worry. Niuniu, just let her rest for a while. The military hospital will explain the situation to them, so don't worry."
"What do you mean don't worry? Is this something you don't need to worry about?"
"Plague... Grandpa, this is extremely contagious. From now on, if something like this happens again, I won't let any of you pass."
Wen Maidong spoke bitterly. He had never imagined that such a dangerous task would be assigned to Niu Niu and Grandpa. Didn't the people above them consider Niu Niu's status? Was it like they were just throwing the donkey away after it had done its work? If, if the country couldn't do it, he wouldn't mind taking Niu Niu abroad at all.
"I know. Don't worry! This kind of thing only happens once. There won't be any chance of it happening again. I promise, it won't happen again."
Wen Xunqing also stated that this was the first time, and it would only happen once. If the higher-ups did this again, he would consider how to respond. In any case, they didn't need to worry about anything; it was the higher-ups who needed to think more carefully and exercise caution.
"Yeah. I understand."
Wen Maidong put down the phone and began to actively prepare. He couldn't let others make the choice; he had to take the initiative. He hoped he wouldn't let him down, or else he would really consider moving to another country.
After putting the luggage in the living room, Wen Maidong cleaned the entire house like a diligent snail girl. The medicinal food simmering over a low fire in the kitchen exuded a charming aroma. Don't underestimate this medicinal food. People who are not proficient in pharmacology can't make good things.
Wen Maidong sniffed hard, making sure it was ready before turning off the low fire. It should be just in time for Shen Yun to wake up. The cold dishes in the kitchen were already laid out, waiting for the owner to arrive.
