An Moxue roughly pulled Wu Sicheng's head and leaned it against her.
Wu Sicheng suppressed a laugh and leaned closer, tentatively taking her hand and placing it in his own. Seeing that she didn't object, he didn't dare to make any extra movements, obediently closing his eyes. After a while, even breathing could be heard.
Seeing that he was asleep, An Moxue tried to pull her hand away, but couldn't budge it. She glared at him, then gave up and closed her eyes to rest.
*
When An Moxue woke up, her head was resting on Wu Sicheng's shoulder, and he was half-embracing her, holding her hands tightly together with his other hand.
The fire in front of me had only a few scattered embers left, the heat had subsided, and the clothes beside me were dry.
She moved, and he opened his eyes. "You're awake," Wu Sicheng asked.
"Um."
An Moxue took one of her hands, checked her pulse, and said, "Try to eat and sleep more these days to nourish your spirit."
After saying that, she took out three Nourishing Yuan Pills from her bag and handed them to him, saying, "This is a three-day supply. Take one pill a day to replenish your vital energy. Take it well."
He took the medicine, looked at her tenderly, and said with a smile, "Yes, I will definitely take the medicine on time and listen to Dr. An. After eating and taking a nap, I feel much better. Seeing you like this gives me the illusion that I am the one suffering and the one being saved."
"Although I'm missing, I'm just missing. Everything else is fine. You, on the other hand, look like you've lost half your life." An Moxue glanced at him sideways and said with a smile, the meaning of which was self-evident.
Alright! He had nothing more to say; he couldn't argue with her, so he just listened. He decided to catch two fish and cook them for her.
He got up, picked up a dagger, tied it to a stick, went to the riverbank, and began catching fish.
An Moxue gathered up the clothes that were hanging next to the fire, and then watched Wu Sicheng catch fish.
He speared a fish, and when he looked up, he saw her sitting not far from him, her hands supporting her chin as she looked at him.
He brandished the fish on the dagger at her, then tossed it a short distance away.
After spearing six or seven fish, An Moxue called out to him, "Wu Sicheng, that's enough, let's go back!"
“Okay, we’ll listen to our daughter,” Wu Sicheng said with a smile.
An Moxue noticed that Wu Sicheng had become more shameless during this meeting.
He went ashore and asked, "Going back now?"
"Hmm. Wait a minute, I'm putting on some makeup." Then, Wu Sicheng saw An Moxue take a small bag out of her backpack, open it, and there was a bunch of things inside that he didn't recognize. He just saw her applying makeup and drawing.
He watched helplessly as his beautiful girlfriend ended up transforming herself into a middle-aged woman.
After An Moxue finished her makeup, her professional voice changed. "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" An Moxue asked, looking at him.
He grinned and said, "It's nothing, it's just amazing."
"Wait a minute, I'll go change my clothes, then we'll go back together."
"Hmm." Wu Sicheng buried the fire.
When An Moxue came out, her entire aura had changed, and she was completely different from before.
The two men shouldered their bags, and Wu Sicheng picked up the string of fish, and they left together.
Wang Wei and Li Deren returned to Maple Leaf Town with the news that they had found An Moxue, which shocked everyone who heard it!
The person who disappeared for nine days reappeared unharmed, and in a river 50 kilometers away from the scene of the incident.
While everyone was shocked, they also hoped that their other two comrades might have drifted down the underground river to that place and survived.
That's why, when An Moxue and Wu Sicheng appeared at the Maple Leaf Town Public Security Bureau, her comrades-in-arms came in droves to watch.
Xu Qingfeng only looked her over once, and seeing that she wasn't injured, he patted An Moxue on the shoulder and said, "It's good that you're back safely!" Then, as if remembering something, he said with a somewhat complicated expression, "You're finally back! We don't have to argue with those two from the Lion Gang anymore!"
Completely baffled, An Moxue asked, "Captain, what's going on? Does it concern me?"
"Hmm. Political Commissar Zhang of the Lion Regiment, I don't know how he came to believe it was you, understand?"
An Moxue nodded, and Xu Qingfeng continued, "He said that once the list of the dead and sacrificed is confirmed, he wants to bury you next to your parents in the Lion Regiment, so that soldiers from the Lion Regiment can sweep your grave. That's the gist of it, but I don't know why that Political Commissar Zhang is so insistent?"
An Moxue was both touched and somewhat amused. She said, "Captain, don't worry, he's absolutely trustworthy. He was just being protective of me. If he did anything inappropriate, I apologize. He probably guessed my identity and won't say anything out of line. Why don't I go see him now? Do you have any plans?"
"No, go ahead! Your mission is complete. If you're not in a rush, you can stay in China for a few more days."
Hearing Xu Qingfeng's words, An Moxue happily said, "Thank you, Captain. It won't be long. I just want to stay here for a few days, then find some medicinal herbs and go back."
Xu Qingfeng said, "Okay, go ahead! Once you come back safely, I'll have finished handing over things here. Our National Security Bureau will withdraw, and the rest will be a headache for the military. I'm relieved to see you. I'll be leaving now and won't be with you. You can arrange when you leave. I'll arrange a direct flight for you to the Inner Mongolia Military Region."
An Moxue waved goodbye to him and went to see Zhang Jing.
Upon seeing Zhang Jing, An Moxue saluted and said, "Political Commissar Zhang, Guoan Hummingbird is reporting for duty."
Zhang Jing looked at her, his eyes slightly red, and said, "Good! Good! Good! It's good that you're back alive!"
She couldn't explicitly reveal her identity, but Zhang Jing had seen her dressed like this before and knew it was An Moxue. He asked, "You haven't been injured in these nine days, have you?"
An Moxue smiled brightly and said, "No, I was just trapped in the underground river and it took a little time to figure out how to get out. I'm not injured and everything is fine."
Zhang Jing asked with concern, "That's good. Are you hungry? I'll have someone get you some food."
"I'm not hungry. I ate roasted rabbit before I came back."
"How did you get through those nine days? What did you do to survive? How did you manage to persevere for so many days?" He looked at this young man with constant tenderness in his heart.
"I had some food in my bag, and I can catch fish in the underground river to grill and eat, so I'm not hungry. I'm just a little anxious because I don't know when I'll see the sun again. Everything else is fine." An Moxue's half-truthful words made her even more convincing.
It's normal for a person to feel a little fear in an unknown environment.
Zhang Jing smiled and said, "Those who survive a great calamity are bound to have good fortune! We are blessed people, and we will surely live to be a hundred years old!" This was also his most sincere blessing to her.
"Yes, I will." This is both a promise and an expectation.
