Ling Ran coughed dryly to hide the laughter that was about to burst out of his mouth.
Jiang Weihua lowered his arm and fired back at him, "Although you brought her back safely, you are not qualified and not suitable for her."
Ling Ran said seriously, "After I have arranged all the trivial matters, I will apply for discharge from the army. I want to protect her closely and be her personal bodyguard for life."
Jiang Weihua was stunned by his words, "What did you say?"
"I said, I want to apply for discharge from the army!"
"Have you ever thought that the country needs talents like you?"
"Maybe! But she needs me the most. After this incident, do you think I can still stay in the team with peace of mind? Dragon Country is huge, and there are many people like me, but there is only one Professor Z. I think my reason should be supported."
Jiang Weihua was speechless. After his little niece disappeared, this man's behavior had made him realize that he loved Xiang Xiang very much, to the core. Moreover, now he was planning to retire from the army for Xiang Xiang. He had no reason to say anything.
The two people fell silent in the yard, and chattering sounds came from the west room.
After A-Lian's questions and Zhou Xiang's instructions, Zhou Xiang finally came out after a while, with A-Lian still following behind her.
"Senior Jiang, A-Lian lives here. During the Chinese New Year, I will take her back to experience the Dragon Kingdom's New Year."
"You, take her back for the New Year? She's just..." a maid.
She was so nice to a maid, but she was so mean to her uncle...
Zhou Xiang chuckled at his sour words and said, "You should come too! If you don't come, who will she take care of?"
Jiang Weihua was a little confused. Had the roles been switched? Who was the master and who was the servant? But it didn't matter. He was invited. That was great. He could go to the market town to celebrate the New Year.
Zhou Xiang comforted A Lian again, "You should work hard here. I will come to pick you up when I have a day off and spend the New Year at my house."
A-Lian nodded, "I'll wait for you!"
Zhou Xiang and Ling Ran left. A Lian suddenly felt a little scared. It was a strange country, a strange place, and strange people. She was a little panicked.
"Senior Jiang!"
Jiang Weihua frowned. The tone was too uncomfortable. "Who allowed you to call me Senior Jiang? You must call me Mr."
A-Lian was so frightened that she bowed repeatedly, "I'm sorry, sir, I'm sorry!"
There were tears in her eyes and she looked terrified, which made Jiang Weihua feel guilty.
He waved his hand and said, "Okay, I don't blame you. You can't just shout along with Xiang Xiang."
"But, but, think about it, my sister said we don't have to do it like in Country R." A Lian said timidly and softly.
Jiang Weihua felt that she was quite hateful. This was a child who was two years younger than her, and she had just returned to China. She was still unfamiliar with the local customs.
He softened his voice and said, "Okay, I was in a bad mood just now and lost my temper. You should learn to speak the Dragon Country language well in the future. I hate hearing your tone of voice."
A Lian immediately covered her mouth, nodded timidly at him, and then retreated back into the house.
Jiang Weihua thought she had gone back to her room to hide, but she came out again, wearing an apron and protective sleeves.
"Sir, I need a rag and a basin."
She tried hard to make her tone closer to Longguo's accent.
Jiang Weihua held his forehead with his hand. This tone made him even more uncomfortable. Forget it, just give her some time.
Pointing to the bathroom, he said, "There, everything you need, including water, is in that bathroom."
A-Lian smiled and responded, "Thank you, sir!"
She was about to start working. Only work could make her find happiness and forget her fear.
Jiang Weihua was puzzled by her smile. This child was scared at one moment and happy at the same time. Wasn't she too easily satisfied?
After Zhou Xiang and Ling Ran returned to Zhima Hutong, Zhou Xiang directly pulled his mother into the house and locked the door.
"Mom! There were so many people around just now that I couldn't tell you. Now, let me analyze for you why I should go."
As he spoke, he waved his hand in front of his mother, and a wooden cannon immediately appeared in his hand, and then disappeared.
Zhou's mother's eyes widened immediately. "Think about it, what is that?"
Zhou Xiang nodded, "Yes, it was the one from that year. I developed the mobile phone based on my memory. The foreigner had the intention of taking possession of it. Yang Ji was a spy from Country R. She guessed it based on her familiarity with me, so I followed her.
I could have escaped, but if Yang Ji were to survive, you might just be her bargaining chip to threaten me. If any of you were taken captive, you wouldn't be able to return unscathed. It just so happened that Ling Ran went after them and pulled off a big one, eliminating the threat from Country R."
Zhou's mother was stunned. What did she hear and see?
Zhou Xiang waited for his mother to come back to her senses.
After a long time, Zhou's mother spoke softly, "So, you hid all those things like this?"
Zhou Xiang laughed. His mother's focus was different. "Yes, no one can find it."
Zhou's mother shed tears, "Okay, okay! My daughter has great luck, okay! Mom won't worry anymore, you just have to be careful."
Zhou Xiang took out a handkerchief and wiped his mother's tears. "If it wasn't for reassuring you, how could I have demonstrated it to you? I have some good news for you. I also hid all that stuff about Chief Jiang. He was so angry that he was hospitalized! But after I gave him a good scolding, he's fine now."
Zhou's mother then responded with another blast, looking a little confused. "You go out first, I'll take it easy."
"good!"
After Zhou Xiang opened the door and went out, Zhou's mother sat quietly by herself. After a long time, she smiled with satisfaction. God was kind to her little girl, and she felt relieved that she had such great fortune.
At first, she was wondering, since the Water Conservancy Bureau yard was given to the Zuo family to live in, why she had never heard the little girl say where the things were moved to.
Later, dried fruits began to appear in the house. The effect was really beyond the reach of ordinary people. In addition, her eldest son was very intelligent. All of this made her vaguely feel something, but she couldn't grasp it.
Now, she finally understood.
Moreover, she believed that one day her eldest son would recover his normal intelligence.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but laugh out loud. She no longer had to worry. She wanted to live well, live longer, and guard her home.
After Zhou came to his senses, he spoke to his father for a while and comforted the blind old lady for a while before he breathed a sigh of relief. Oh! They were so fragile that they needed a newly rescued hostage like him to comfort them. Really, was he doing it the other way around?
After lunch, Zhou's father and mother said they wanted to go back. They had been out for too long and their family was worried. Although they had called back, they just wanted to let them know they were safe.
Chen Ou and Wang Qiao naturally went together, and Zhou Hua also said he wanted to go together because he had to go back to school for classes.
Ling Ran was busy going to the train station to buy tickets, and Wu Haotian went out with him.
When they came back, the atmosphere between the two seemed a little strange. Wu Haotian had a blank expression on his face, but Ling Ran had a smile on his face.
