Ruan Shengpeng returned to his ward dejectedly, just as Pan Jun came to bring him breakfast. Seeing his pathetic state, Pan Jun said, "Why won't your wife come to see you? If it were me, I wouldn't come to see you either!"
"I asked Dean Zhou about some things yesterday. Those people who came to beat your wife were using your name. You should investigate them!"
"Using my name? How is that possible?" Ruan Shengpeng was filled with doubt and surprise. Could it be...?
"You've been away for over ten years. You haven't kept in touch with your former comrades, have you? If you hadn't run into me here, you probably wouldn't have bothered to find out where I am, right?"
Ruan Shengpeng's eyes flickered. He hadn't actually checked where his former close comrades had gone! When he went on missions before, he was a regimental commander, no less.
He also has soldiers who have risked their lives for him, and these are his connections. But he has always been used to coming to his father to solve any problems outside the military!
Now it's discovered that Lao Tzu's network of connections has been tainted by too many people, losing its original essence, and some are even using his name to harm those they care about.
It seems he should build his own network of connections. From childhood to adulthood, his relationship with his father has been the best; the two of them always discuss and agree on everything.
He hadn't put much effort into building connections, but now that he's left Beijing and out of his father's circle of relationships, he realizes that he really has to work hard for many things himself!
Ruan Shengpeng sincerely thanked him: "Thank you, Lao Pan, I know what to do!"
"It's good that you know. Your health is almost recovered. From now on, you should take care of yourself. I shouldn't come here too often, as it wouldn't be good for either of us!"
Ruan Shengpeng nodded: "Thanks, brother!"
Pan Jun stood up, thinking of the people he had caught before: "The people who were chasing you before are still in my hands. What should I do with them?"
Ruan Shengpeng narrowed his eyes: "You help me release them, then send someone to follow them. I have some suspicions, but I need some evidence!"
"Alright, then I'll help you out this one more time, you'll have to repay me in the future!"
"That's easy, I'll definitely treat you to a meal sometime!"
"You want to eat? Then have your wife cook me one more meal. I still remember the meal she made before!"
Yue Ling: "......." I said I miss the New Year's Eve dinner, and you laughed at me. You don't even remember the dinner from more than ten years ago. What a double standard!
Pan Jun: "......"
After a few peaceful days, Xiao Yan went to work that day, and Yue Ling told her, "That person has been discharged from the hospital, and their recovery is quite strong!"
Xiao Yan was somewhat surprised and even went to Ruan Shengpeng's ward to check. Sure enough, no one was there anymore, ever since she had mentioned that Yao Yanxin refused to come.
She never entered this ward again, and Ruan Shengpeng never came to see her again. I didn't expect him to be discharged from the hospital so decisively. He really is a man; he can let go so quickly!
Xiao Yan felt uncomfortable, feeling sorry for her friend who hadn't lived a good life since marrying him. She didn't know why he had fled in such a panic!
This scumbag just left without hesitation. He really is a scumbag, a heartless man!
Xiao Yan gritted her teeth inwardly, but there was nothing she could do. When it comes to matters of the heart, it's always the woman who can't let go, while the man can just shake his sleeve and let it go!
That evening, Xiao Yan returned to the courtyard looking rather sullen. She ate her dinner in silence, which was quite different from her usual self!
Yao Yanxin asked her with some concern. At first, Xiao Yan didn't want her friend to think about that scumbag, so she didn't say his name. But later, seeing that her friend kept asking, she realized that Xiao Yan was worried.
She could only get angry: "That scumbag has been discharged from the hospital. Ever since I told you not to visit him, he hasn't come to see me again. Now he's just been discharged without a second thought. What a scumbag!"
Yao Yanxin felt a little disappointed. She had let go of him, but he only said he missed her and then asked her to go see him.
I haven't seen my two children for so many years, and I never thought of coming to see them. It's true that if you don't grow up by my side, you won't be close to them!
Yao Yanxin shook her head: "It's good that he's gone. I didn't want to see him either! It's just that the two children are suffering. Having a father is like having no father at all. I was just unlucky to have met such a bad person!"
Just then, Yao Tongjia and Yao Tongxu overheard this and said, "Mom, we don't like this father who came from another family either, so please don't worry about us!"
These words offered Yao Yanxin some comfort, but she still couldn't sleep that night, remembering the first time she met Ruan Shengpeng.
At that time, she had lost her father and her support, and was being forced to marry someone she didn't want to marry. Ruan Shengpeng was like a god descending from the sky, bringing her peace of mind.
After she got married, although he wasn't by her side, her life became much easier because of her status as a military dependent.
But she never expected that the two of them would end up like this. This was something she never thought. Even after coming here, she had been waiting for him all along.
She hoped for a family reunion, but on New Year's Eve, her face was slapped and she was threatened, and all her self-esteem was trampled on.
They say that mountains crumble and rivers flow away. Now, thinking back to before I got married, I relied on my father after his death, and on Ruan Shengpeng, who then betrayed me.
Does this mean we'll have to rely on our two children from now on? What if they also...?
Just then, she heard someone knocking on the window. She was startled. Could it be those people again?
She picked up a stick that fit her hand and walked to the window: "Who is it?"
A familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from outside the window: "Yan Yan, it's me, Ruan Shengpeng!"
Yao Yanxin seemed to have been paralyzed, remaining completely still!
Ruan Shengpeng assumed Yao Yanxin had asked a question and then fallen asleep again: "Yanyan, open the window for me, you can go back to sleep later!"
Yao Yanxin realized what was happening and said, "You should leave. There's no need for us to meet again. I don't want to be called a vixen or a seductress. I don't care about myself, but I can't let my child be criticized!"
"Yan Yan, open the door quickly! I sneaked in here. I can't let anyone find out I was here, or you'll be in danger too!"
These words left Yao Yanxin with no choice but to open the window. Soon, a figure rushed in and hugged Yao Yanxin tightly!
Yao Yanxin didn't react at first, but by the time she did, she was already wrapped up in his arms!
Yao Yanxin patted his chest: "Let me go! You're not clean anymore, I don't want you!"
These words made Ruan Shengpeng laugh, and the laughter, rising and falling with his chest, reached Yao Yanxin's ears. She nudged Ruan Shengpeng away with her elbow.
Ruan Shengpeng was afraid of hurting Yao Yanxin, so he didn't dare to use too much force and had to let go of Yao Yanxin!
Why did you take the child so far away? And why didn't you leave me any information?
