"puff."
Gong Linglong couldn't help laughing.
Han Ji turned around and fixed his eyes on her.
His eyes were sharp, and Gong Linglong tensed up immediately with fear, but she kept her mouth shut: "Boss, women always feel uncomfortable for a few days every month. It's normal for men to have such symptoms."
"Pfft, haha..."
Lu Jingchuan and his two siblings all laughed out loud.
Jiang Yun patted the back seat with joy and nodded her head non-stop: "Yes, yes, old man, it's normal for you to feel uncomfortable for a few days every month. It's a normal phenomenon. Don't think too much about it."
Before meeting Han Ji, Gong Linglong thought that Lu Jingchuan's master was an old man. After all, Jiang Yun called him "stinky old man" every day, so she always thought he was an old man in his sixties or seventies. But after seeing him in person, she realized that she had misunderstood.
This is not an old man at all. Judging from his appearance, he is only in his early forties. He looks good and can be considered a handsome uncle.
This handsome uncle was full of iron-blooded aura, and it was obvious that he had been tempered in countless gunfire and hail of bullets. Even she, who had lived a second life, felt a little uneasy when facing his aura.
Seeing that his wife was too frightened by the master to speak, Lu Jingchuan immediately changed the subject: "Linglong, when I returned home just now, something happened at home."
"What's the matter?" Gong Linglong leaned forward.
"Mom has been translating medical books at home lately and someone found out. Political Commissar Zhao received an anonymous tip this morning, saying that our family has hidden banned books. When I got home, Mom was cooperating with the investigation."
Gong Linglong's heart tightened, but when she remembered her mother's work permit at the Compilation and Translation Bureau, she relaxed and said nonchalantly, "Let them investigate. My mother submitted her manuscript to the Compilation and Translation Bureau through the formal submission process. There's nothing shameful about it."
She is not worried about this matter, but she has to go back and investigate the person who reported it behind the scenes.
Han Ji, who was sitting in the front row, didn't say anything, but crossed his hands on his abdomen. When he heard his apprentice say the words "translate medical books", his hands clenched slightly.
When the jeep returned to the family compound, the door of the house opened and there was a noise in the room. Gong Linglong immediately pushed the door open and got out of the car, shouting into the house, "Mom."
"Hey, Linglong, you're back."
Bai Shuixian's gentle voice came from inside the house. Han Ji's hand on the car door trembled suddenly, and his dark eyes stared straight at the figure walking out of the house.
Bai Shuixian was standing to the side and behind, and didn't see the person sitting in the passenger seat. She asked, "Xiao Jiang, Jingchuan said your master and senior brother would be here. Are they here?"
"Aunt Bai, they are here." Jiang Yun was getting out of the car with Gong Linglong.
Ji Wei came down from the other side and came around the back of the car, calling out politely, "Hello, Auntie. I'm Jingchuan's senior brother, Ji Wei."
"Hello, Comrade Ji. Please come in and sit down." Bai Shuixian greeted her with a smile.
"Master, get off the car."
Lu Jingchuan noticed that his master looked a little strange, and was about to ask something when Han Ji suddenly opened the car door and came around from the front of the car.
When Bai Shuixian turned around, a black shadow suddenly loomed over her head, which scared her and she quickly took two steps back.
Han Ji was very tall, at least a head taller than Bai Shuixian. After she stood firm and looked up, a familiar face with a tense complexion came into her sight.
She barely hesitated and blurted out his name: "Han Ji."
"Wantang."
An extremely suppressed cry escaped from Han Ji's throat, and his eyes flashed with uncontrollable joy.
Bai Shuixian was very happy to suddenly meet an acquaintance, but also felt a little dazed. "Han Ji, why are you here?"
"I am Jingchuan's master."
Han Ji suppressed the violent fluctuations in his heart. His face was tight, his eyes were filled with obvious relief, and his voice was hoarse and trembling: "As long as you are alive."
"I'm sorry for making you worry all these years."
Bai Shuixian smiled slightly. She was also glad to see her old friend again. She said with a smile: "If I had known that you were Jingchuan's master, you would come to visit our house today. I wouldn't have called your father just now."
"Huh? Call my dad. Have you been in touch with my dad?"
Han Ji's mind suddenly wandered, thinking that his father knew that she was alive but deliberately hid it from him.
"No. I've been through a lot over the years. I lost my memory for the first twenty years and only recovered it at the beginning of this year. I don't have my original ID anymore, so I just asked the military leader to help contact Uncle Han and ask him to verify my situation."
"So that's how it is."
In fact, Han Ji came here for her. When Jiang Yun called him and said that the second apprentice's wife's surname was Gong, some guesses came to his mind.
The moment he saw Gong Linglong in the city, Han Ji was certain that she was Gong Wantang's daughter.
"Wantang, let's go inside and talk. Tell me what happened over the past few years."
Han Ji wanted to know what she had been through over the years. He had guessed that she must have had a hard life, and he couldn't imagine how she had managed to survive all these years.
Bai Shuixian smiled and nodded. She turned around and saw four young men standing behind her. She hurriedly pulled Gong Linglong over and introduced her: "Linglong, Jingchuan's master, and also my mother's friend. Call him Uncle Han."
Gong Linglong winked playfully at her mother. She had just seen clearly that Director Han J's eyes were looking at her mother in a very unusual way, full of strong emotions.
Adults understand that feeling.
In fact, when they first met in the city, Gong Linglong sensitively noticed that Director Han J looked at her with a deep gaze, as if he was looking through her at someone else. She couldn't understand it at the time, but now she completely understood it.
The first time he saw her, he was sure that his mother was here.
In fact, she didn't object to her mother's remarriage. Her mother had a very hard life over the years, and she was still young. It would be a good thing for her to have a man who treasured her by her side.
However, everything depends on my mother's wishes. The marriage has caused her severe trauma, and she may not be able to completely let go of the past and accept another relationship and marriage.
Putting these aside for now, Gong Linglong planned to talk to her in detail later, so she smiled and called out, "Uncle Han."
Han Ji looked at her with a more complicated expression. He nodded slightly and said to Bai Shuixian, "Wantang, the sun is scorching outside. Let's go inside and talk."
"Okay, come in."
Bai Shuixian invited the master and his disciples into the house, quickly poured a basin of water for them to wash their faces and hands, and then took out a watermelon and cut it to treat them.
Lu Jingchuan and the others brought their luggage into the room and saw their master following them like a shadow. The three brothers and sisters looked at each other in tacit understanding, exchanging glances that they all understood.
They finally knew who the old iron tree had been protecting all these years.
The two elders were reminiscing about the past in the study, the four young people were preparing lunch outside, Lu Jingchuan was cutting vegetables in the kitchen, Ji Wei and Jiang Yun killed the chickens and ducks, and Gong Linglong had just delivered the chicken that the Yuan family wanted, and then turned around to pick some vegetables from the vegetable garden.
