Chapter 335 Under the Osmanthus Tree
Hearing Su Lingyu's thoughts, Huo Yan was startled and subconsciously wanted to touch his nose.
But just as he raised his hand, he felt that this action showed his guilt too obviously. He was afraid of attracting suspicious looks from people around him, so he restrained himself and looked away, looking out the car window.
The hands that were placed back on his knees were tapping lightly, as if he was listening to what the people outside were saying and thinking about something.
Su Lingyu followed him and looked outside curiously, and saw the same scene as before.
The system's baby voice sounded, full of doubt: [Host, why do you say that? ]
[Do you suspect that Huo Yan knows something? ]
Su Lingyu denied: [No, no, I just said it casually.]
[The main reason was that he looked at me seriously and said such a long string of words. It felt strange and too sentimental, which made me feel like he was saying it to me on purpose.]
The system suddenly realized: [That’s right. ]
【It’s a bit strange.】
[If a husband who has always been cold to his wife suddenly becomes gentle and considerate, he might be cheating on his wife.]
[The enemy suddenly comes over to ask about your well-being, and the hand behind his back may be holding a pig-killing knife. ]
[Oh, oh, don’t you humans have a saying that goes “When a weasel pays New Year’s greetings to a chicken, it does so with bad intentions”? ]
[Look at Huo Yan, a man of few words who values words like gold. Before, unless it was necessary, he would never use five words if he could say it in three. But he just said such a long string of words. There must be something fishy going on!]
Su Lingyu couldn't help laughing: [So what kind of ghost is that? ]
[I think you are just talking nonsense and hurting him out of habit.]
The system couldn't help but laugh, and in a baby voice full of pride, it refused to admit it: [Ha ha ha, I didn't! ]
[However, the host is right, we are very careful in everything we do. ]
[The technology in this world is very backward, there is no surveillance on the road, and I was scanning and guarding the surroundings. When we delivered the prediction letter, there was no one around, not to mention a cat or dog. No one would know that we were the ones who delivered the prediction letter! ]
[Huo Yan is not a worm in your stomach, how can he know what you have done? He cannot possibly know the truth.]
Su Lingyu nodded: [Yes, that is indeed the truth.]
[He may know a lot and have seen a lot, so he is inspired to speak out. Every one of the Huo family members is very patriotic.]
The system immediately said: [Host, you too. 】
[You are no worse than the Huo family. You also love your country very much! ]
Su Lingyu thought about it and realized that it was true.
But she didn't do anything.
In her previous life, she watched a TV series that was divided into eight parts and depicted the glorious deeds of eight meritorious figures, among whom were several scientific researchers engaged in military research.
During the research and development period, everything they did was kept strictly confidential. When the confidentiality level was the highest, even their bedmates didn't know what they were doing, let alone their neighbors.
In addition to overcoming difficulties at work, they may also have to face various criticisms, strange looks, and even doubts from their families. However, they always move forward firmly as long as their goals are achieved.
When she finished watching the TV series, she was filled with admiration and shock.
Now think about it, the Huo family is a military family, Huo Yan was deeply influenced by it, and he was born in the 1960s. Well... although he may not have been very old at the time, he must have experienced the national celebration when the two bombs and one satellite were successfully developed.
Thinking of this, Su Lingyu's smile deepened.
She loves this country very much.
Whether in the past life or this life.
But she feels that compared to her own insignificant contributions, the scientists and craftsmen who work down-to-earth and overcome difficulties step by step are the most admirable people.
The system seemed to have guessed her thoughts and suddenly said: [Host, do you feel that you have not done anything, or that what you have done is insignificant? ]
Su Lingyu was a little surprised, but replied: [Yes, that's right.]
[So, if Huo Yan said that to me, I feel unworthy of it.]
She even smiled when she said this.
The system disagreed, and said in a baby voice: [How is that possible?]
[Host, you also paid points! Although it seems that you didn't pay much, but if you don't pay, no one will know. ]
[The points in the system mall are so useful and can be exchanged for many good things, but you don’t use them yourself, but donate them to the country. Isn’t this love? ]
[Also, you and Jiang Yufeng worked together to conquer acupuncture anesthesia, which also benefited many people. ]
[Hasn't the sensory training camp you opened been successfully tested in the country and is being promoted step by step? You humans always say that the younger generation is hope, and you have done a great deed! ]
[You do charity work to help a lot of women and children, which is great. ]
Su Lingyu: […It seems so.]
Although I feel a little embarrassed, as I listen, I find it makes sense for some reason. Why?
Her almond eyes sparkled: [So, I am pretty awesome? ]
The system said proudly: [Remove the question mark, my host is the most powerful! ]
【The best! 】
Su Lingyu finally couldn't help laughing out loud.
She looked out the window again and thought the people chatting animatedly outside looked even cuter.
What she didn't know was that Huo Yan beside her was looking at her with tender eyes, and after hearing the system's flattery, he nodded again and again in sympathy.
Looking at her, there is a sense of honor.
…
A military green jeep stopped at the gate of the courtyard. Huo Yan got out first, holding the door with his big hand and holding Su Lingyu's hand with the other.
Before the two of them stepped into the courtyard, they heard two childish voices, sounding alternately.
"The sun sets over the mountains."
"The Yellow River flows into the sea..."
Look inside.
Under the osmanthus tree in the courtyard, two fair-skinned and adorable little children sat on a bench, with dark eyes and two chubby hands behind their backs, looking at the words on the small blackboard and reading ancient poems seriously.
They could hear noises coming from the door. When the two children saw Huo Yan and Su Lingyu entering the yard, they immediately jumped up from their benches like cannonballs and rushed towards them.
"dad!"
"mother!"
Huo Chen threw himself into Su Lingyu's arms, hugged her legs with his two chubby hands, and sensibly did not ask her to pick him up.
Huo Yi rushed into Huo Yan's arms and immediately patted his arm, saying, "Daddy, lift it up high, do a flying move!"
Huo Yan smiled as he lifted the chubby girl up, threw her into the air and then caught her steadily. Suddenly, a burst of crisp laughter rang out in the courtyard.
Seeing that his son was also a little hungry, after throwing the little girl away, he picked up the fat son, and immediately laughter rang out again.
After the two kids finished laughing, Su Lingyu asked, "Where is your Uncle Gu?"
