"Dad, I know I don't believe any of the rumors circulating outside. I can't leave yet. If you two don't get out of here safely, I can't leave either."
Before Jiang Qiao left, he told me to protect the safety of my family, not just my grandfather and the others, but also you.
I know that Qiao'er must have her own reasons for not being able to keep up with the situation; otherwise, she certainly wouldn't have let the rumors spread like wildfire.
"Tell me, is this thing between you and my mom related to Jiang Qiao?"
Gu Zhengfeng pulled his son-in-law to sit down. "Jiang Qiao's matter is just an excuse used by the other party. Our backgrounds are a major disadvantage, but none of that is the most important thing. I suspect that enemy agents have infiltrated us, so I had already spoken to Song Shutian's people about this beforehand."
However, the other party's failure to take action for so long is probably due to a lack of evidence.
In addition, I don't know if the person who said they would promote me has gotten in the way of someone else; the situation is a bit complicated.
As you know, given our geographical location, they've been making moves there. I'm worried that what they're doing is probably in coordination with their actions.
"Or perhaps we should wait and see—"
Ning Hao was well aware of the importance of his father-in-law's location.
"Dad, can I find out what your superiors think about this matter?"
Gu Zhengfeng sighed, "The big leader is out in a meeting. Otherwise, some people wouldn't be in such a hurry to take action. They just want to make this a fact, so that no one will dare to overturn the case for me."
Ning Hao nodded knowingly. "Dad, don't worry about this. I'll contact Chen Fang later and see if they can take some measures to prevent these people with ulterior motives from succeeding."
Stop writing the materials, it's useless. We don't need to explain anything to Jiang Qiao, who didn't do it. You should just do your job properly. What's there to explain? Let them see for themselves.
I'm staying here to take care of Shitou these past few days. There are people back home helping me look after the elderly. My uncle and the others should have already gone back. You don't need to worry about anything else.
Gu Zhengfeng was most curious about how Ning Hao got in. Judging from the personalities of the two people at the door, he couldn't have gotten in without something special.
Ning Hao took out his identification. "When Qiao'er was in a coma back then, I went to help her and used this identification. Later, I didn't take it back, mainly because I was afraid that if anything happened to Jiang Qiao, I, as Qiao'er's man, could help them in a critical moment."
Gu Zhengfeng nodded knowingly. "Okay, I understand. Be careful."
Shi Tou hugged Wen Jingwan's neck tightly and didn't want to let go. "I don't want to leave, brother-in-law. Can I stay and keep Mom and Dad company?"
Gu Zhengfeng smiled and patted his son's short head. "Mom and Dad know that our Shitou is filial, but now is not the time for you to stay here. You have to take good care of the house for Mom and Dad. We can't lose our things."
Your brother-in-law doesn't know where everything is kept at home either. Stone has to tell him to listen to Dad, go home with him, and remember to bring some nice food for Mom and Dad.
The little boy nodded with tears in his eyes. "Dad, I know. You and Mom need to take care of yourselves and not abandon Shitou anymore. I miss you both, and I'm also worried about my sister and her baby."
Ning Hao hugged his brother-in-law, "Shitou, come home with your brother-in-law. We'll cook something delicious for Mom and Dad and bring it over. Don't worry, your sister and your nephew are both alive and well. Don't let your sister worry. We need to live well too."
Ning Hao carried the stone out, and as soon as he stepped out into the courtyard, he encountered several people rushing over. Although he didn't know who they were, judging from their demeanor, they were definitely not here with good intentions.
"Who are you? Seize him! This is a military stronghold, how dare someone trespass?"
Ning Hao put down the stone and looked coldly at the other party, his aura even stronger than the other's.
"Let's see who dares! Who are you? State your name."
Song Junqiang observed from the side, pondering how to take the opportunity to leave this place. He knew what this person in front of him did; it was this person who had detained his fourth uncle.
The man glanced at Ning Hao and said, "Never mind who I am. It wouldn't be right for you to come to my territory without saying hello, would it?"
I don't care who you are, but if you dare to act wildly here, I advise you to think twice about your own status.
"Guards, arrest him! I suspect this man is an accomplice of Gu Zhengfeng's daughter, an enemy agent. We must interrogate him thoroughly."
Ning Hao pushed the stone aside. "Go find my brother—"
Although he didn't know what his brother-in-law's plan was, Shi Tou still obediently walked towards Song Junqiang.
Ning Hao swiftly pulled out his work ID. "Open your eyes wide and take a good look. Who am I?"
The man clearly wasn't going to listen to Ning Hao. "I don't care who you are, arrest him—"
The two men who walked over were observant; Ning Hao's work ID was right in front of them, how could they not see it? Especially after seeing the contents, the two men didn't dare to make a move.
"Chief, I can't arrest this person—"
The man was furious. "I don't care who you are. Here, I'm the one who calls the shots."
Ning Hao smiled and looked at the two men. "Comrades, did you see clearly? If not, take another good look."
The two men saluted and said, "Sir, we have seen it clearly."
Ning Hao nodded. "Now that you've seen it clearly, you know who I am, what I do, and what this ID means, right?"
The two nodded. There was really no need to explain this so clearly. As for the seal of a special department, they would never normally have the opportunity to see such a person, let alone obtain such a document.
"Very well, please step aside, this matter has nothing to do with you."
He turned to look at the man, his eyes flashing with a dangerous light. "Well, if you're not deaf, you should have heard me, right?"
If you insist, I have no objection, but you'll have to bear the consequences yourself.
Also, this isn't your territory. You don't have that much power to divide up territory. Do you want to occupy land and become king?
If you even have that thought, then you really should be taken out and have your mind thoroughly cleaned up.
Judging from how quickly this person jumped out, Ning Hao felt that he was probably not an enemy agent. At most, he might have had some ulterior motives and been fooled by the enemy agent, or he might have some kind of tacit understanding with the enemy agent. Of course, he didn't know whether the person knew the enemy agent's identity.
The man was clearly stunned by Ning Hao's words; he hadn't expected Ning Hao to react so quickly.
However, having come this far, he didn't want to fail at the last minute. He had already offended Gu Zhengfeng, so he couldn't let the other party leave.
Holding a weapon and pointing it at Ning Hao, he said, "Don't be stubborn. You know where you are. Come with me—"
Song Junqiang's heart was in his throat. If Ning Hao got into trouble again, he wouldn't be able to face his family.
Just as he was about to stop him, Ning Hao said, "That thing in your hand should be pointed at the enemy, not your own people. I advise you to think it over carefully and not let yourself be blinded by greed."
A hint of hesitation flashed in the man's eyes, but it was clear that the hesitation was fleeting, and his gaze toward Ning Hao remained hostile.
