Chapter 37: Letting the Wolf In



Five minutes later, Han Shuxin was holding a bowl of ginger sugar water in her hand, sipping it in small sips.

"Xinxin, what do you want to eat tonight?"

Aunt Mei opened the refrigerator and looked at the food inside. Since there were many people eating at home, she wanted to cook a few more dishes.

"I haven't decided what to eat yet." Han Shuxin always has no appetite during her period. "But I love anything Grandma Mei cooks."

"You are so sweet-mouthed," Aunt Mei was very happy to be praised. She immediately became energetic and planned to cook two more dishes tonight to reward Xinxin's little mouth.

Han Shuxin was happy to see that Aunt Mei was so easy to coax. She lay lazily on the sofa and fell asleep again in a daze.

She didn't know how long she slept, but she felt someone shaking her shoulder. She opened her eyes drowsily, and saw Yanyan's concerned face.

"Yanyan, you're back?" Han Shuxin stretched and looked out the window. It was already dark. "How long have I slept?"

“Aunt Mei said you slept on the sofa for more than two hours.

Aunt Mei originally wanted to ask you to sleep upstairs, but you're such a lazy pig that you won't wake up no matter how much I called you. So I could only get you a blanket and let you sleep on the sofa."

Yanyan spoke reluctantly, but her tone was doting and worried.

"Does your stomach still hurt?"

"It's all fine now." Han Shuxin was embarrassed by being asked such embarrassing questions all the time, so she quickly changed the subject, "Where's my brother?"

"You mean Yan Xun? He just came back too and is taking a shower upstairs."

Yanyan poured herself a glass of water, took a sip slowly, and said, "When I saw him come back, he brought a large storage box with him. The one in it might be the crystal core you mentioned."

Han Shuxin no longer had any interest in the crystal core. She was completely shocked by Yan Yan's previous words, "Brother is taking a shower upstairs?"

"Well, what's wrong?" Yanyan was puzzled, not knowing why Xinxin reacted so strongly.

"Yan Xun saw that Aunt Mei was lonely, so he asked her to come live with us. He would come over occasionally for meals."

"I thought it would be inconvenient for him to live alone, so I invited him to live with me!"

Han Shuxin widened her eyes and cried in her heart, Yanyan, you are letting a wolf into the house.

"Xinxin, don't you welcome your brother to live with you?" Yan Xun's voice sounded from the stairs on the second floor.

What Han Shuxin wanted to say was stuck in his throat.

She unconsciously lifted her hair, made a lightning rod gesture on her head, and forced a stiff smile, "Brother is willing to live here, it's great!"

When Aunt Mei heard that Young Master Yan was going to move in, she was so happy that she didn't know what to do.

Young Master Yan's parents died early, and he grew up with Old Master Yan. Since Old Master Yan's death, he has been alone.

Now, Yanyan has returned to the Yan family and brought back the big baby Xinxin. Aunt Mei is happy for Young Master Yan!

When it was time to eat, Han Shuxin looked at the table full of delicious food, quickly adjusted her mindset, and accepted the fact that Yan Xun was moving in.

Just let her live there, as long as she can eat the delicious meals made by Aunt Mei every day, she will endure it!

Just as they put down their bowls, there was a knock on the door.

"Who's knocking on the door so late at night?" Han Shuxin and Yanyan looked at each other and then at Yan Xun.

The most likely person is looking for Yan Xun.

Before Han Shuxin could move, Yanyan stood up and opened the door.

Han Shuxin followed Yanyan's figure and looked over, only to see a soldier in military uniform standing at the door.

When the man saw Yanyan, he saluted and said with a smile, "Ms. Yan, we meet again!"

"It's you, come in!" Yanyan smiled and let the man in military uniform into the living room.

Turning around and meeting Yan Xun's gaze,

I didn't expect Liu Jianpeng to be so eager to see Yan Xun. It seems that he is not having a good time in the base either.

Wang Kang walked into the living room and saw the man sitting on the sofa. His eyes lit up, "Yan Xun, do you still remember me?"

Yan Xun looked over and smiled, "Wang Kang, long time no see!"

"Long time no see, I didn't expect you still remember me!"

Wang Kang was a little flattered. He thought that Yan Xun was the ace of the special forces back then, and there was no mission he could not complete.

He thought he would continue to shine in the special forces, but he suddenly retired, which made him worried for many years.

This man is the goal he aspires to surpass.

I didn’t expect that we would meet again after so many years!

After a brief exchange of greetings, Wang Kang got to the point and said that Lieutenant General Liu wanted to meet Yan Xun.

He glanced at Yanyan, who was smiling elegantly, then looked at Han Shuxin, who was looking curious, and spoke hesitantly.

"Lieutenant General Liu was going to come here in person, but something went wrong at the base and he couldn't leave, so he sent me over."

Wang Kang was originally a little indifferent to the fact that Lieutenant General Liu attached so much importance to Yan Xun.

But on the way here, he saw the unusualness of this community.

Pairs of young men in uniform, holding electric batons, patrolled closely.

Each team has two or three skilled fighters, and they seem to be wearing pistols on their waists.

Seeing this, Wang Kang had already put away his indifferent attitude and treated Yan Xun more cautiously and respectfully.

Perhaps, the man in front of him is indeed capable of solving Lieutenant General Liu’s urgent problem.

When Han Shuxin heard the word Lieutenant General Liu, he looked surprised. It seemed that Lieutenant General Liu was the second largest force in the Kyoto base in the original work.

He is an upright person and a good leader who is wholeheartedly concerned about the development of the base.

but,

Because it is the second largest force, it has always been suppressed by the largest force and is always forced to take on some difficult tasks.

In order to complete the difficult tasks, most of his subordinates became cannon fodder. Those who survived by chance were forced to join other teams after Lieutenant General Liu died.

Han Shuxin sighed when he thought of this man's ending.

If Yan Xun gets involved with Lieutenant General Liu, his future will be visibly either in danger or on the way to danger.

Yan Xun kept an eye on Han Shuxin's expression. Seeing her look of regret, he secretly raised his eyebrows.

"It's just right. I haven't seen Lieutenant General Liu for a long time. I'll go with you now."

Yan Xun turned to look at Han Shuxin, "Go change your clothes and come with me to see Lieutenant General Liu."

"Me?" Han Shuxin pointed at herself.

Are you sure?

She didn't know any Lieutenant General Liu.

Han Shuxin looked at Yanyan, but saw Yanyan frowning and staring straight at Yan Xun, "Would it be inappropriate to take Xinxin there now?"

Xinxin's space is too amazing. If it is discovered, it will probably cause a lot of trouble.

"Don't worry, auntie, I will take good care of her!" Yan Xun's determined eyes soothed Yanyan's worries.

Han Shuxin followed Yan Xun in a daze to meet Lieutenant General Liu.

Liu Jianpeng was exhausted. He took off his glasses and rubbed his sore eyes. He leaned back on the sofa in the living room and looked at the living room door from time to time.
