Chapter 90: Has the leader become a bad person?
Giving up the idea of looking for Zhu Yaoyao, Xu Yancheng picked up the martial arts comic books that Ruan Anan had placed on the coffee table and started flipping through them.
Ruan Anan also took out the book "Lu Ban's Art", and the two of them sat shoulder to shoulder on the sofa, reading quietly.
Nansha Island is very quiet after dark, and even the chirping of insects and birds outside the window becomes white noise that helps people sleep.
The sound of turning pages gradually slowed down, Ruan Anan tilted her head and fell asleep unknowingly.
Hearing the sound of even and long breathing, Xu Yancheng gently closed the picture book in his hand.
After making sure she was sleeping soundly, he leaned over carefully, put one hand through her knees, and the other hand around her back, then he steadily lifted her up and carried her to the master bedroom on the second floor.
After gently putting the person on the bed, Ruan Anan pulled the quilt over him in a daze, turned over and fell asleep again.
Xu Yancheng squatted beside the bed and looked at her rosy face in the dim light coming in from the window. The corners of his hard mouth softened unconsciously, and a smile appeared on his face that he didn't even notice.
The layout of this master bedroom was very similar to Ruan Anan's boudoir in Hai City in his memory.
He set it up step by step based on his memory and watched people do it.
Half a month ago, he walked out of the Political Work Department with the marriage reports of Xu Yanli and Ruan Anan.
I sat alone in this empty room all night.
Force himself to face the fact that An An no longer wants him.
Fortunately, he received a telegram from the Haishi Military Region the next day.
In this life, he finally got what he wanted.
His thoughts returned, Xu Yancheng leaned over and lightly kissed Ruan Anan on her smooth forehead.
He tucked in the quilt for her, quietly left the room, and then returned to the military area.
Wu Wei looked at Xu Yancheng, whose body was covered in dew, in astonishment. "Captain, why are you back again? Where's my sister-in-law?"
"Falling asleep." Xu Yancheng took out an old book from the locked drawer on the desk with an expressionless face.
His bony fingers stroked the title of the book, "Secrets of the Cheng Family."
When Wu Wei saw his team leader took out the book again, he was so scared that he quickly closed the office door.
"Captain, why don't you take this book back home?"
"Those things written on it are too weird! If someone saw it, who knows what kind of trouble it would cause!"
Xu Yancheng opened the book cover and looked at the white jade bracelet painted on it, and said thoughtfully,
"Wu Wei, do you believe in fate?"
"I don't believe it!" Wu Wei shook his head obediently, "What's the point of life or death? I, Wu Wei, only believe in the strength of my fists."
"Captain, are you thinking about the Blood Skull again?"
"That's right." Xu Yancheng put the book into the military green backpack he carried with him, and took out a wax-sealed envelope from the drawer.
"Until the blood skull is completely eradicated, we won't be able to sleep peacefully."
"The enemy is more cunning than a fox. If I die on the battlefield, remember to give this letter to An An."
Wu Wei took the envelope with trembling fingers, and his eyes turned red instantly.
"Captain! Don't scare me! Why are you already explaining your final plans?"
"Back then I was hopping on trains in Fujian to make a living. If you hadn't picked me up from the side of the tracks, my grave would be covered in grass by now!"
"If anything happens to you, how will I live?"
Xu Yancheng...
He rubbed his throbbing temples helplessly, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"When did I say I'd made arrangements for my funeral?"
"I didn't confess about the war before because I was single and had no ties! Now..."
His eyes drifted toward his home outside the window, and his tone softened. "I have a wife now, and there must be rules for family matters. This is the rule, do you understand?"
When Wu Wei heard this, he immediately wiped away his tears and said, "Then I don't have any relatives. My sister-in-law is my relative. I should write a letter to her too!"
Xu Yancheng raised his hand and punched him on the shoulder.
"Get lost! If you want to write, go find your wife to write it for you. Why are you writing nonsense for my wife?"
"Isn't it true that an elder sister-in-law is like a mother? Hehehe..." Wu Wei rubbed his shoulders and dodged with a playful smile.
He is completely different from the calm and introverted Xiao Li.
Wu Wei has a bit of a reckless and gangster-like spirit in his bones.
Because when Xu Yancheng picked him up, he was still a teenage boy.
The two have depended on each other for so many years and are more like brothers.
So he spoke directly and Xu Yancheng couldn't do anything about him.
Xu Yancheng had no choice but to change the subject abruptly: "Is Doctor Zhu still in the clinic?"
"Doctor Zhu?" Wu Wei immediately became alert and stood at the door like a hen protecting her chicks.
"Captain! What are you doing looking for Doctor Zhu in the middle of the night? You can't do anything to let your sister-in-law down!"
He was so anxious that he was incoherent. "My sister-in-law is so nice! She's capable, kind-hearted, and she even gave us meat to eat! If you..."
"Is your head filled with slop?" Xu Yancheng was so angry that he raised his hand and gave Wu Wei a slap.
"I ask, you answer. Why all the nonsense?"
Wu Wei covered his head and muttered reluctantly, "Given Doctor Zhu's personality, this should be at the clinic."
But it’s so late, why is the team leader still looking for a female comrade?
Could it be that his team leader has also become a bad person?
"Where is Xiao Li?" Xu Yancheng continued to ask.
"Xiao Li? He just finished cleaning the chief's office and is probably back in the dormitory." Wu Wei replied.
It seems that Zhu Yaoyao has released the person after questioning him. Xu Yancheng nodded: "Go, call Xiao Li over."
"Call Xiao Li?" Wu Wei didn't understand what was going on for a moment, but after he came to his senses, he nodded quickly.
"Oh... okay! I'll go right away!" With that, he ran away.
Xu Yancheng: ...
How many days has your daughter-in-law been here?
Everyone around me seemed to be drugged.
You have to be careful in the future, otherwise your wife will be snatched away by someone else in a minute.
Xiao Li, who had just finished cleaning the chief's office, followed Wu Wei dejectedly.
I'm so unlucky today!
I finally met such a nice person like Sister An An, but then I was called by Dr. Zhu and questioned over and over again for half a day.
What’s even more bizarre is that two large tubes of blood were inexplicably drawn!
He had just finished cleaning with his weak legs and hadn't even caught his breath when the team leader called him over again.
What's going on with these two?
Didn’t he just catch a few snakes?
Is it possible that... catching snakes is also against discipline?
Going to be punished?
The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became, and his face wrinkled into a bitter gourd.
"Xiao Li, what's with that expression on your face? Our leader won't eat people!"
Seeing that he was dejected, Wu Wei poked him hard in the ribs with his elbow.
"It's more terrifying than cannibalism!"
Xiao Li rolled up his sleeves with a sad face and stretched his arms in front of Wu Wei.
Under the dim light, only two glaring purple needle holes could be seen on the inside of his elbow.
"Oh my God! Were you bitten by a snake?"
Wu Wei was so scared that he grabbed Xiao Li's arm, pressed his fingers nervously on the bruise, and his voice changed.
