"At noon, I saw Ge Hong stopping Commander Li at the window. I don't know what they said, but Commander Li didn't look well."
Ge Hong was also a shrewd woman; she usually did things secretly, and Huang Qiurong sometimes turned a blind eye to her.
In any case, she can't cause any major trouble.
Su Jingjing wondered if A Ting's failure to come home for lunch was related to this matter.
"I understand, Sister-in-law Qiu Rong, thank you."
After watering the plants briefly, Su Jingjing took her tools and went back.
I kept wondering what Ge Hong had said to A Ting.
When it was time to cook in the afternoon, Su Jingjing was absent-minded and accidentally cut her hand with a knife.
She gasped, "Ah!"
Little An'an rushed over immediately, asking with concern, "Mom, what's wrong?"
Mom's hand is bleeding!
Li Yuanyuan, following behind her brother, also saw it.
"Waaah... Mommy, does it hurt? Yuanyuan will blow on it for you."
The little one puffed out his cheeks and blew hard, afraid to touch his mother's hand, lest it hurt her more.
Su Jingjing felt a warmth in her heart. "Mom, it's okay."
My index finger was cut and a little blood seeped out, but it wasn't a big deal.
The next second, Li Cheng'an was rummaging through the living room. He remembered that his father had put gauze and medicine in the bottom drawer last time.
He used to be naughty and would get hurt from time to time, so his father kept medicine at home.
"An'an, what are you looking for?"
Hearing the commotion in the living room, Su Jingjing came out out of curiosity.
"Found it!"
Li Cheng'an happily picked up the gauze and medicine.
This is…
"Mom, sit down, let me bandage you up."
Li Cheng'an winked at his younger sister, signaling her to hold onto their mother, and then skillfully wiped the bloodstains around their mother's index finger.
"Mommy, be a good girl."
The adorable Yuan Yuan even told her mother to be good.
Su Jingjing felt both amused and exasperated, thinking that it seemed like she had made a mountain out of a molehill.
However, she remained seated, enjoying the surprise the children brought her.
"An'an, how did you learn to bandage?"
The quick-tongued Yuanyuan blurted out her brother's embarrassing secret.
“My brother used to be naughty and often got hurt. My dad taught him that.”
Even after being exposed by his younger sister, Li Cheng'an didn't feel ashamed. In the end, he even tied a bow on his mother's index finger.
"alright."
Although her index finger was wrapped up like a rice dumpling, Su Jingjing felt sweet inside. "Thank you, my two darlings."
But then there's another problem: "Mom looks like she can't cook."
Without hesitation, Li Cheng'an betrayed his father, "Mom, I'll go and call Dad back."
Before Su Jingjing could react, An'an took off running outside.
Fine, this is a good excuse to send Ah Ting home.
She could clearly sense that Ah Ting was avoiding her, but what did Ge Hong say?
Li Cheng'an ran all the way; he knew his father's office.
At this moment, Li Hanting was not in his office; he was leading his team in training on the playground.
He was unusually ruthless today, and the soldiers under him suffered terribly, but no one dared to provoke him.
Standing under the scorching sun, even when drenched in sweat, they gritted their teeth and endured it.
Li Hanting was angry, but he couldn't take it out on his wife, so he decided to use them as targets.
At that moment, they ran lap after lap carrying heavy loads, like robots.
Li Hanting shouted coldly, "Tighten your skin! Anyone who fails to complete the task will have to stay overnight."
These words reignited everyone's passion, and they seemed to run even faster.
Unsurprisingly, Li Cheng'an missed his target and scratched his head.
"Hey, where did Daddy go?"
Liu Yang ran over, covered in sweat. It was terrifying; the regimental commander had just been training them to the point of death.
He came back to the office to get something and saw a small figure pacing around the doorway.
"An'an, are you here to see the commander?"
Li Cheng'an turned around and took two steps forward. "Yes, Uncle Liu, do you know where my dad is?"
Liu Yang immediately felt that An An was his savior.
"The regimental commander is at the training ground."
Before he could finish speaking, An'an ran past him like a gust of wind.
What's the rush?
Liu Yang ignored his doubts and jogged after An An.
Li Cheng'an stood at the edge of the training field, his small body trembling as he watched his father working. He wondered whether he should go over and disturb him.
"Uncle Liu, is my dad very busy?"
"fine."
Liu Yang raised an eyebrow, "I believe everyone will appreciate your presence."
"You stay here and don't move. I'll go and call the battalion commander over."
There are some dangerous instruments in the training area, and it would be unsafe for An'an to go directly there.
Liu Yang took small, quick steps and ran up to the regimental commander, standing at attention.
"Reporting to the commander."
Li Hanting glanced at him and said in a deep voice, "Speak."
"Commander, An'an needs to talk to you."
Li Hanting paused for a moment, then looked in the direction Liu Yang was pointing.
How will my son get here?
The next second, as if he had thought of something, he quickly threw what he was holding at Liu Yang and shouted sternly, "Dismissed."
A cheer erupted behind him.
Seeing his father running over, Li Cheng'an was overjoyed, "Dad."
Li Hanting frowned. "An'an, why did you come here? Did something happen at home?"
Could it be that something happened to my wife?
"Dad, Mom just cut her hand. Why don't you come home and check on her?"
Worry flashed in Li Hanting's eyes, and his hands, hanging at his sides, clenched tightly.
"How badly are you injured?"
"Fortunately, there was only a little blood seeping out, so I bandaged up my mom's wound."
Li Hanting finally felt relieved; he had more important things to verify right now.
"An'an, Daddy has something to ask you. Answer truthfully."
"Hmm." Li Cheng'an had a bad feeling.
"Did you run into anyone when you went to town today?"
Does Dad know?
Li Cheng'an frowned; the father and son were practically identical.
His father's face was gloomy; he knew his father was angry.
She pursed her lips, hesitated for a long time, and said, "Dad, we met a man and even had dinner with him."
Dad's face seemed to darken even more. He quickly waved his hand, "Dad, don't worry, Mom was just trying to make him pay. My sister and I were sitting right next to him, and he didn't even touch Mom's clothes."
The air was silent for a few seconds. "Dad, is that why you didn't come home for lunch?"
Li Hanting asked his son, "Why didn't you tell me the truth from the beginning?"
"At first, I mistakenly thought that my mother wanted to leave us, but she said that she would never leave us."
Li Cheng'an hesitated for a moment, "Dad, do you believe Mom?"
His mother is really good to him and his sister now.
Li Hanting's breathing became heavier. "Let's go home first."
Back at the door, he didn't have the courage to open it for a moment.
"Dad, why aren't we going in?"
Hearing his son's words, Li Hanting opened the door and went inside.
