Ye Weiwei quickly packed her things and went downstairs.
Grandpa Qin has also returned. Looking at Ye Weiwei, he gave her a worried instruction: "Weiwei, be careful! I know you are a thoughtful child, but that place is not like Kyoto. You must think twice before making any decisions. Your task is to assist from the sidelines and try not to put yourself in danger."
Ye Weiwei nodded in agreement: "I understand!"
Seeing that she had taken his words to heart, Old Master Qin didn't say anything more.
However, the worry on his face was impossible to hide no matter how you asked.
"You brat, I'll take good care of the kids at home. You just keep your wife safe and bring her back safely!"
For once, Qin Xiao didn't go against Old Master Qin and gave a serious military salute: "Yes, sir! Mission accomplished!"
While the father and son were talking, Ye Weiwei gave Aunt Hua several bags of milk powder that she had specially added with wood-based energy, and instructed Aunt Hua to give it to the children.
She also used her supernatural powers to grow some calming flowers, made them into dried flowers, and put them in three small pouches. If the three little ones cried a lot and were disobedient, she would let them smell the pouches or wear them around their necks. These things could soothe their emotions, but they were still too young to wear them for a long time.
Aunt Hua and Sister-in-law Sun wrote down everything Ye Weiwei said. Finally, Ye Weiwei hugged each of the three little ones one last time before leaving with Qin Xiao.
As if sensing something, Xiao Yunshu stretched out her little arm and shouted at Ye Weiwei, "Mommy! Mommy!"
Ye Weiwei hardened her heart and dared not look back.
Receiving no response, Xiao Yunshu's voice trembled with tears, and she called out to Qin Xiao again, "Dad! Daddy! Daddy!"
Qin Xiao paused, then turned around abruptly, rushed home, picked up his daughter, and gently rubbed her little face against his skin. "Yun Shu, be good. Mom and Dad will bring you something delicious when we come back!"
After saying that, he strode away and never looked back!
Xiao Yunshu was initially happy that her father was coming back, but she didn't expect that he would only hug her briefly before leaving. She felt deceived and cried her heart out.
Moreover, her crying seemed to have a magical power. Soon, Xiao Chen'an and Xiao Minghe joined in, and the three children cried their hearts out. This broke the hearts of Grandpa Qin, Aunt Hua, and Sister-in-law Sun, who each held one of them and comforted them.
If Ye Weiwei were at home and saw this scene, she would definitely notice something was wrong. However, because Ye Weiwei was heartbroken and knew that the children would definitely cry, she didn't dare to use her spiritual power to see, so she missed it.
Fortunately, she had anticipated this, and the small pouch made from the calming herbs she had left behind immediately came in handy.
With this little purse, Xiao Chen'an and Xiao Minghe were quickly calmed down. After crying for a while, Xiao Yunshu tightly clutched the little purse and sobbed, and soon fell asleep.
Ye Weiwei and Qin Xiao soon met with Elder Long.
Old Master Long had been waiting for them for a long time, and he was very pleased to see that they had arrived so quickly.
"This mission is extremely important, and I hope you will return victorious!"
Qin Xiao stood at attention and saluted: "Mission accomplished!"
Elder Long then looked at Ye Weiwei with a dignified gaze.
Ye Weiwei confidently raised her chin: "I will not be a burden to anyone!"
Old Master Long shook his head: "You're wrong! I never thought you would be a burden! Since we let you join, you're one of their comrades! Ye Weiwei, I hope your trip goes smoothly!"
Ye Weiwei was taken aback, not expecting Elder Long to say that. She disliked the somber atmosphere, so she smiled brightly: "You have good taste! You won't regret choosing me!"
Old Master Long laughed heartily: "Good! When you return in triumph, I'll hold a celebration for you!"
Ye Weiwei smiled and said, "Then it's a deal!"
Elder Long: "It's a deal!"
After the two left, the adjutant beside Elder Long said worriedly, "Ye Weiwei is an ordinary person who has not received any special training. Is it really okay to send her?"
Old Master Long turned his head to look at his adjutant, his wise eyes seeming to see through everything, making the adjutant unconsciously lower his head in guilt.
Old Long: "An ordinary person who can remain calm and talk freely even when facing a gun, who can take away the opponent's weapon with a single move and cripple the person with ease?"
If even someone like her is considered an ordinary person, then at least half of the special forces team could be disbanded!
The adjutant couldn't help but shudder, then immediately admitted his mistake: "It was my fault for not being observant enough!"
Old Master Long: "Give me a 5,000-word self-criticism by tomorrow morning. If you dare to bring personal interests into your work again, you can go back to where you came from!"
The adjutant, drenched in cold sweat, replied, "Yes, sir! There will be no next time!"
After leaving Elder Long's place, the adjutant made a phone call, and someone answered it as soon as the call connected.
Upon hearing the adjutant's words, Long Lan flew into a rage: "How is this possible! How could Ye Weiwei be more suitable for this mission than me! I refuse to accept this! I'll go find Grandpa myself! I'm sure I can cooperate with their operations better than Ye Weiwei!"
The adjutant's attitude was firm: "I've delivered the message. Do whatever you want, as long as you can bear the consequences! Also, don't ask me to do this kind of thing again!"
After saying that, the adjutant ignored Long Lan and hung up the phone for the first time!
He almost lost his job today just by testing the waters with Elder Long. Elder Long's warning was like a knife hanging over his head, and he would never dare to act recklessly again!
It took Long Lan a while to realize what was going on, and she was so angry that she jumped up and down: "That damned Jiang Huai! How dare he hang up on me! I'm not finished with you!"
Since she couldn't rely on others, she had to rely on herself!
So Long Lan ran up to Elder Long, wanting him to replace Ye Weiwei with her, but she was severely reprimanded by Elder Long!
"This is a top-priority mission. Do you think this is child's play, where you can just replace people whenever you want? Don't you know that some things have far-reaching consequences? Get back here and reflect on your actions! Give me a 10,000-word self-criticism by tomorrow!"
Long Lan was scolded by Old Man Long, and she was completely dejected!
"Grandpa, isn't a 10,000-word self-criticism too much? Can you write less?"
Her grandfather is great in every way, except for one thing that's a real headache: he likes to punish people by making them write self-criticisms!
It can be said that the reason she worked so hard and was so ambitious since childhood was entirely because she was forced to do so by the tests!
In order to avoid writing self-criticisms, I must make fewer mistakes and make more progress!
Elder Long: "Okay!"
Long Lan was pleasantly surprised, not expecting her grandfather to be so agreeable today. But the next second, she heard her grandfather's cold and ruthless voice: "Then write 15,000 words!"
Longlan: ...
She forced a smile, her hands gesturing like fans: "No need, no need! Ten thousand words is perfect! Ten thousand words is perfect! Grandpa, you're busy, I'm going to reflect on my actions and write a self-criticism!"
