"Zhu Qi'an? I'm Sheng Yi. Do you remember me? I'm the one who lived in your house for two or three years when I was a kid."
"Well, your godfather, who's also my old man, insisted that I contact you to see if you're doing well over there."
Zhu Qi'an was inexplicably called over to answer the phone. He was already a little confused, but after hearing Sheng Yi's words, he seemed even more confused.
He did have some impression of Sheng Yi, after all, they had played together for two years when they were young, but what about his godfather? And why would Grandpa Sheng contact him?
Looking at the smiling battalion commander beside him, Zhu Qi'an's mind was racing, but he didn't show it on his face and continued to speak in cooperation with Sheng Yi.
"Ah, it's you, Sheng Yi. I'm doing well here. Please tell Grandpa to rest assured."
I'm so sorry, I was supposed to be the one contacting Grandpa, but you guys contacted me instead, I..."
"Hey—don't say that. The old man has been traveling around these past few years. He doesn't contact anyone, so no one can contact him. You don't need to worry about it."
Oh, by the way, I also saw your family and little cousin when I came back this time. That girl insisted on coming along; do you want to say a few words to her?
Upon hearing this, Zhu Qi'an's pupils constricted sharply. If she hadn't known Sheng Yi's purpose for calling before, she now understood perfectly.
He had heard about what happened to the Zhu family last night, and he was so preoccupied with it today that he heard news about his family.
He glanced at Yang Wenhan, who had been called out to speak, and quickly lowered his voice to answer Sheng Yi's question.
"Yes, I want it."
As soon as Zhu Qi'an finished answering, a very familiar voice came from the other end.
"Brother, I'm fine, everything's alright at home, please don't worry. Just take good care of yourself, okay?"
Although the voice trembled noticeably, Zhu Qi'an immediately recognized it as his younger sister's voice.
"Okay, I understand. I'm fine too, don't worry."
After hearing this, Zhu Qinghao quickly handed the microphone back to Sheng Yi, allowing Sheng Yi to continue chatting with Zhu Qi'an.
When Yang Wenhan returned to the house, he heard Sheng Yi inviting Zhu Qi'an to come home with him during his next vacation, and Zhu Qi'an agreed.
At this moment, Sheng Yi and Zhu Qi'an stopped talking, and Zhu Qi'an handed the microphone to Yang Wenhan.
"Battalion Commander, Sheng Yi has something else to say to you."
Yang Wenhan asked with some surprise:
"You've finished talking in such a short time? Didn't you say a few more words?"
Zhu Qi'an smiled and shook his head:
"No need, Battalion Commander, thank you!"
Yang Wenhan took the phone, still thinking about why Zhu Qi'an was in such a good mood, unable to hide the smile on his face.
Zhu Qi'an was in a good mood, of course. No one knew that when he first learned that something had happened to his family, he felt terrible. He was on edge and absent-minded all day. But just now, he was told that his family was all safe and sound.
For him, this was the best news, and there was no better news than this.
Sheng Yi and Yang Wenhan didn't say anything more, exchanged a few pleasantries, and then hung up.
After hanging up the phone, Zhu Qinghao looked at Sheng Yi with eager eyes. Sheng Yi knew that she was just excited and happy to have contacted her cousin, but he couldn't help but wonder if her happiness had anything to do with him.
