"Your aunt has fallen asleep, so we should go back to the house and rest instead of staying here."

Seeing what the children were doing, Mother Lu thought that it was getting dark, so they might as well go back to rest to avoid turning on the lights and wasting electricity.

Upon hearing this, Gu Mingze asked the children to go wash up, and for the first time ever, he let the two children sleep on the same bed with them.

Lu Qingyan was so tired that she didn't even notice that there were two little guys around her.

When she woke up drowsily in the morning, she reached out and touched something soft beside her, and she opened her eyes and looked over.

She saw her two sons lying beside her. She looked at her sons who had woken up and asked in confusion: "Why are you two here in my **?"

"My dad asked my brother and I to sleep in your bed last night, so it's normal for my brother and I to sleep in your bed now." Gu Jingming answered with a smile when he heard his mother's question.

"Oh, I slept too deeply last night and didn't know you were sleeping next to me." Hearing this, Lu Qingyan stretched out her two arms, hugged one child at a time, and stayed in bed for a while before calling the children to get up.

"Are you up? I've put the food in the pot. You can take it out and eat it after you finish washing up. And check to see if there's anything you left behind, so you don't need it when you get there."

Mother Lu and Father Lu did not go out today. They sat in the yard and waited for their daughter to come out before they stood up and started to chatter.

"Mom, I packed everything I needed yesterday, so you don't need anything. Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who loses things." Seeing her mother looking worried about her, Lu Qingyan smiled and said that she had packed everything and she didn't need to worry about her.

"Alas, apart from the time you left me and your father when you were in school, and the time you got married, now that we're all together, you have to go on a business trip again. It's really..." Mother Lu couldn't continue talking, so she sat down on the bench and sighed.

"Look at you, your daughter is leaving soon, why are you making such a face? Are you making your daughter miss you when she leaves home?" Father Lu saw the old woman sighing there, so he spoke in a bad mood.

"Dad, please don't talk about mom. She's also worried about me. She's worried that I'll be away for a long time and won't be able to take care of myself."

When Lu Qingyan saw her father talking about her mother, she hurried over, hugged her mother and said, "Mom, I'm grown up now. I'm in my 20s and can take care of myself. Please don't treat me like a child anymore, okay?"

"Okay, I've been taking care of you for so many years. I'm worried about you leaving so suddenly." Mother Lu nodded, wiped her eyes, held her daughter's hand, and said a lot of things.

Finally, Father Lu couldn't stand it anymore and urged his daughter to go wash up and eat.

He also mentioned what Gu Mingze had said when he left, asking them to wait at home, and that he would drive Lu Qingyan to the city in the afternoon.

Just like that, after Lu Qingyan washed up and had breakfast, the family sat there chatting.

When Gu Mingze came back at noon and finished their lunch, the two of them left in a car under the reluctant gazes of their parents and children.

"You promised me yesterday that you would take good care of yourself, not get hurt, and not lose weight. Did you hear me?" Gu Mingze said to his wife while driving.

"I heard you, I heard you, you've said these words at least ten times, why are you still saying them?" Lu Qingyan's ears were almost callused from being told so many times, and she responded with a slightly impatient voice.

"Hey, you are such a person. You can do whatever your parents tell you, but when it's my turn to say a few words, you get impatient. Tell me, are you getting annoyed with me now?" Gu Mingze heard his wife's impatient tone, stepped on the brakes, looked at his wife and asked

"No, no, God is my witness, I really didn't." Seeing the man stop the car without caring, Lu Qingyan quickly raised her hand to assure

"That's better. Remember what you promised me yesterday. You are not allowed to talk to any men in private except for work, and you are not allowed to eat alone with them." Gu Mingze didn't know if it was because of his age. Seeing such a delicate wife leaving him, he was always worried.

He wished he could make his wife smaller, put her in his pocket, and have her by his side all the time to feel at ease.

But he also knew that this was impossible, so he could only ask his wife to promise him verbally so that he could feel more at ease.

So the two of them dragged their feet all the way to the city and went to Chen Xuhui's bookstore.

Gu Mingze looked at Chen Xuhui and said solemnly: "Brother Chen, I don't ask what mission you are going to do this time, but one thing is for sure, you must protect Xiaoyan's personal safety, otherwise I don't know what impulsive things I will do."

"Okay, Comrade Gu, don't worry. We are going to a secret base this time. There are people protecting us. Nothing will happen to Comrade Lu. If anything happens, you can hold me responsible." Chen Xuhui also knew that Gu Mingze doted on Lu Qingyan and treated her like his own eyeball.

So he agreed immediately, fearing that if he agreed later, Gu Mingze would not let Lu Qingyan go with him.

Just like that, after a few words, Chen Xuhui and Lu Qingyan said goodbye to Gu Mingze, got on a military vehicle and left.

Gu Mingze watched his wife's car driving away and reached out to touch his pounding heart. He had a feeling that something was going to happen this time, otherwise why would his heart be beating so hard?

Then he felt it was impossible, shook his head, turned around, got in the car, and returned to the army, but in his heart he silently wished that his wife could return safely, otherwise their family really could not bear it.

At this time, Lu Qingyan was unaware of her husband's worries. After sitting in the military vehicle for a while, she got on the train at the railway station.

Sitting on the berth, she watched Chen Xuhui across from her take out a confidentiality agreement from his bag and ask her to sign.

But the more I looked, the more frightened and panicked I became.

But I had already agreed to go and was already sitting on the train, so I had no choice but to sign my name.

"Comrade Lu, don't worry, it's just a piece of paper, don't take it too seriously." Chen Xuhui saw Lu Qingyan signed and put the confidentiality agreement away solemnly, then said with a smile

"Haha." Lu Qingyan really didn't want to say a word to Chen Xuhui at this moment. She immediately lay down on the bed with her back to Chen Xuhui, saying nothing.

Chen Xuhui looked at Lu Qingyan who ignored him and felt a little guilty. He could only touch his nose awkwardly and lie down on the bed with his eyes closed to rest.

He needs to have a good rest during these rare few days, otherwise he might be very busy when he gets there.

So let’s cherish the rare leisure time we have now.

In this way, Lu Qingyan followed Chen Xuhui and drove in reverse, reverse, and reverse again. She didn't know how many days had passed.

Finally, on a sunny afternoon, I got off the train and got on a fully enclosed military vehicle. I was blindfolded and taken to a place where the blindfold was removed, leaving me with my mouth wide open in shock.
