Chapter 274: Captain Zhou Runs Away from Home



Jiang Qingyue was also too upset to sleep and originally wanted to calm down alone in the pavilion.

Suddenly I heard the phone ringing, so I ran back into the house without saying a word and answered it.

I thought it was Zhou Zhengting who called back, so I asked without thinking,

"Where are you?"

The person on the other side was visibly stunned after hearing this.

Then he chuckled and said, "I'm not Lao Zhou, I'm Yingzi."

Jiang Qingyue was distracted for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's you. Why did you think of calling me so late? Is there something urgent?"

"Oh, don't mention it." Hu Changying sighed and smiled bitterly, "After get off work, I told Xie Xiangyang about my business trip. I thought he would definitely support me."

"I didn't expect that after listening to me, he firmly disagreed and asked me to give the spot to someone else. He also said that he would call my dad and persuade him not to let me go."

"I was so angry that I had a quarrel with him on the phone. Qingyue, tell me, how could he say that he would find someone to go in my place?"

Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but smile bitterly after hearing this. "Forget it. It's mainly because of Yan Wenbin's incident. They are all worried. Let's give them some time to digest it."

Hu Changying sighed, "Does Captain Zhou also disagree with you going? Did you two have a fight?"

Jiang Qingyue hummed lightly, "He also firmly disagrees. Let them think about it again. Maybe they will change their mind tomorrow."

"Well, it's getting late. We can talk about it at work tomorrow. You should go to bed early and stop getting angry with Lao Zhou."

"Yes, I know."

......

On the other side, Zhou Zhengting regretted it as soon as he went out.

It was my first time running away from home and I had no experience at all.

I don’t know where to go.

So I just walked along the path along the seaside.

But as I was walking, I ran into Xie Xiangyang at the fork in the road ahead.

Seeing his depressed look, with a beer in his hand, I couldn't help but ask in surprise, "What's wrong with you? Are you heartbroken?"

Xie Xiangyang sneered, "It's almost time, come on, go have a couple of drinks with me, it's been a while since we two brothers have been alone together."

Zhou Zhengting saw him raising his foot to walk towards the night market outside the compound.

He quickly pulled the person back and said, "No, it's too noisy outside, let's go to the beach!"

Xie Xiangyang sighed, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

As they spoke, the two of them walked towards the beach, one after the other.

When the two of them arrived at the beach, they found a big rock to sit on.

Xie Xiangyang began to complain, "You should have heard that your sister-in-law and her friends are going abroad for a meeting, right? I wonder why Yingzi is so stupid as to rush to go."

"Besides, there are so many people in their hospital, why don't they let others go? I don't believe that the meeting won't be held if she doesn't go."

"Old Zhou, do you think Dean Hu has a problem with his thinking? If he didn't know there was danger, it would be fine, but now that he knows someone has bad intentions behind his back, he is still rushing to take his daughter with him. What is he thinking?"

"Tell me, is it because my sister-in-law is going that she insists on going with me?"

Originally, Zhou Zhengting had been listening to Xie Xiangyang's complaints in silence.

He never said anything in response.

But after hearing the last sentence, Zhou Zhengting immediately retorted, "How could it be because of your sister-in-law? Maybe your sister-in-law was instigated by her father and daughter."

"Don't you think about it? My wife is the treasure of the hospital. Even if there is danger, she is the most dangerous, okay?"

"I think the last person who should go is her."

Seeing Zhou Zhengting defending his shortcomings, Xie Xiangyang quickly changed his words and said, "Okay, okay, I was wrong. I was excited at the time, but tell me--"

"Yingzi is usually careless. It's fine if she wants to go on a whim. But my sister-in-law is usually so calm, how could she be so irrational this time?"

When Zhou Zhengting heard him questioning his wife's decision, he couldn't help but chime in, "You know shit. My wife is very conscious!"

Xie Xiangyang was choked by this retort, "Lao Zhou, aren't we on the same front? Why did you betray me again?"

Zhou Zhengting snorted coldly, "You can talk about the matter, but don't point fingers at my wife all the time."

"Although we are on the same side in this matter, as soldiers, you and I should be able to understand their choice."

After hearing this, Xie Xiangyang curled his lips, lowered his head and said nothing more.

Seeing that he was not convinced, Zhou Zhengting asked, "Let me ask you, if the higher-ups assign us a task, will you go or not?"

Xie Xiangyang exclaimed, "Of course I'll go."

"But what if I tell you that this mission is extremely dangerous? Will you bargain and find an excuse to refuse?"

Xie Xiangyang's eyes widened. "How is that possible? Military orders are as heavy as a mountain. We soldiers must obey them unconditionally!"

"If the country needs me, I will not hesitate to go through fire and water, let alone danger."

Zhou Zhengting nodded, "That's right, so they just made the same choice as us."

After saying that, the two grown men fell silent.

"No more words, let's drink!"

Zhou Zhengting squeezed the bottle in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and then put it down. "Forget it, I can't drink anymore, otherwise I will reek of alcohol and your sister-in-law won't let me into the house."

Xie Xiangyang still had a mouthful of beer in his mouth that he hadn't swallowed.

When I suddenly heard Zhou Zhengting say this, I couldn't help but blurt it all out.

After vomiting, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Old Zhou, are you serious? We are under too strict control now."

"Tsk tsk tsk, who would have thought that Captain Zhou, who is a ruthless villain in the army during the day, dares not even drink a sip of beer at night. I am still the best."

Zhou Zhengting snorted unhappily when he saw this, "Yes, I can't beat you. Anyway, no one will care if you go to sleep alone after drinking."

"But it's different for me. I have to spend time with my wife when I get home at night."

After hearing this, Xie Xiangyang suddenly felt that the beer in his hand had no taste at all.

He sighed and put the bottle aside, "Old Zhou, do you think there is no other way to deal with this?"

"If they really run into danger abroad and we can't go, wouldn't that mean we'll be helpless?"

Zhou Zhengting paused for a moment, then asked, "Who said we can't go?"

Xie Xiangyang jumped up on the spot after hearing this, "What do you mean? You said the two of us can go too? But that crappy place is in the Philippines, not in our South Island. How can we get there if we don't have any mission?"

Zhou Zhengting pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "If there is no mission, can't we just find a way to create one?"
