Back To The 80s-Chapter 579 - 571: Plan_1

Gu Xiaobei thought Ji Xiangdong, so intelligent as he was, would certainly understand Ji lao’s intentions and should not resist.

Ji Xiangdong indeed understood that Ji lao had the intention of finding an old partner. He also supported this, but he hoped to wait a bit more, waiting to confirm whether the young man he met was Ji lao’s son. If so, if Ji lao’s ex-wife was still single, wouldn’t this be a beautiful story of remaking an old relationship? Even if they could not get back together, at least there should be no regrets.

...

At the Provincial Hospital, in the Intensive Care Unit, Xu Yanhong was lying weakly on the sickbed, staring blankly out of the window.

She had never expected that Lu Zhanguo’s reaction would be so swift, with the interval between the two gunshots being only three to four seconds, completely exceeding her estimation. She thought her own speed was fast enough, requiring about ten seconds. According to her speed, she could entirely dodge Lu Zhanguo’s attack. The title of Gun God was indeed not in vain.

Moreover, that Lu Zhanguo could intentionally miss under such urgent circumstances and spare her life was something not every ordinary person could do.

Her longstanding arrogance was suddenly shattered.

The door to the sickroom was pushed open, and Ou Tiannan walked in. Looking at Xu Yanhong, his gaze was full of contempt: "Why do you have to make yourself so miserable?"

Xu Yanhong merely glanced at Ou Tiannan before continuing to stare out of the window.

"I heard you had a confrontation with Lu Zhanguo? You’re quite brave, eh? You were lucky to survive," Ou Tiannan jeered. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Xu Yanhong snorted coldly. She just wanted to test how powerful Lu Zhanguo was. She didn’t expect to almost lose her life, but she was lucky to be alive. Otherwise, Lu Zhanguo’s son would undoubtedly die. But now, as she was lying in the hospital so weakly, she reckoned Lu Zhanguo’s son must also be in the hospital.

"I didn’t come here to laugh at you, I’m here to find out whether you can give me my old materials if I help you complete your mission?" Ou Tiannan wanted to be a good person from now on. He wanted to have a good life with Ou Ruoshui.

Xu Yanhong glanced at Ou Tiannan and said in a very weak voice: "You can." If she completed her mission successfully this time, the mysterious person had promised that she could realize her dream of being a soldier.

Ou Tiannan kindly pulled up Xu Yanhong’s blanket for her, saying, "As a woman, can’t you just marry well and live a good life? Why do you always have to struggle like this? Look at what you’ve done to yourself, you’ve become neither human nor ghost. Isn’t it ugly?"

Xu Yanhong remained silent as she listened to Ou Tiannan’s sarcastic words, she still had not stooped low enough to fight with a scumbag.

Seeing Xu Yanhong ignore him, Ou Tiannan touched his nose, feeling even more contemptuous.

...

Lu Zhanguo spending every day leisurely at home for now would certainly lead various people to speculate. Lu Zhanguo had made a huge mistake this time; would he keep going down this road, or maybe transfer to another job, or demobilize?

Some even had designs on Lu Zhanguo’s position. The promotion potential of this position was considerable. The news inside the military region was that they were about to implement the military rank system soon. With Lu Zhanguo currently holding the equivalent rank of a regimental officer, his militar grade would be at least a colonel’s. That would be one step away from promotion to senior colonel, and he would not be far from receiving a gold star and becoming a general.

In this peaceful era, it was difficult to earn military merits or promotions. Either you have outstanding performance with great practical achievements, or you have extraordinary talent in academic research. Otherwise, you can only wait for a job adjustment every three years.

On New Year’s Day, Liu Hongbing, accompanied by Tian Yuanyuan and their son Liu Jiajia, came to visit.

Gu Xiaobei and the others had originally planned to bring the children to the courtyard. Seeing Liu Hongbing and his family, they took off Mo Wang’s half-mounted cotton pants.

As soon as Liu Jiajia saw Xiaopang, she ran over to him diligently and took out two candies from her pocket, saying, "Xiaopang, Xiaopang, I brought you some candy."

Xiaopang looked at Liu Jiajia disdainfully, twisted his head pretentiously, and pouted, "No!"

Disheartened, Liu Jiajia said pitifully, "Xiaopang, please eat it. My aunt bought it. It’s so delicious."

"Don’t want it! Don’t want it! Crybaby!" Xiaopang glared at Liu Jiajia and yelled at her fiercely.

Liu Jiajia immediately started crying.

The adults couldn’t help but laugh at the side.

Tian Yuanyuan went up to wipe Jiajia’s tears while chuckling, "You cry so much, no wonder Xiaopang doesn’t like you."

Liu Hongbing smiled and signaled Lu Zhanguo; the two men went into the room to talk.

Once they entered the bedroom on the east side, Liu Hongbing closed the door and asked, "What’s going on with you? There are crazy rumors outside."

Lu Zhanguo stood by the window and asked in confusion, "What’s going on?"

"Do you guys have some kind of plan? It can’t be so calm."

Lu Zhanguo nodded: "After New Year’s, I can transfer to the Miaojiang Border."

Liu Hongbing suddenly realized: "I see. I was wondering why there was no movement. Now you’re apparently under investigation, but it’s actually the higher-ups making plans. When they transfer you to the border, it will likely be a smoke-screening tactic, aiming to catch the Ye Tianbao gang outside the border all at once. And this side of the provincial city will also start to clean up internal hidden dangers at the same time."

Lu Zhanguo gave him a sideways glance: "You talk more and more these days."

Liu Hongbing sighed, "Actually many people know about the matter this time and clearly understand the situation. It’s just that there’s no evidence. You’ve stirred up these people, making them as scared as startled birds. So it’s actually easier to clean up."

Lu Zhanguo didn’t say a word. Min Zhonghua has already reported this action secretly to He Zhuangzhi. Publicly, it will appear as if Lu Zhanguo has been secretly demoted to a small team leader in Miaojiang to prepare for the arrest of Ye Tianbao.

According to the current clues, it’s known that Ye Tianbao will cross the border into our country to make a deal with a certain mysterious person in the provincial city. Xu Yanhong is allegedly undercover, whereas Duo Ji was just a smoke-screen. Ye Tianbao now knows that Duo Ji is dead and will surely retreat.

And after Xu Yanhong’s injury heals, she will definitely be sent by a certain mysterious person to Ye Tianbao’s side to continue undercover work, thus tricking the top-secret document from Ye Tianbao’s hands.

Suddenly, Liu Hongbing had a sentimental thought, unable to let go, and said: "So will you be permanently transferred after this mission is completed?"

Lu Zhanguo nodded, using Min Zhonghua’s words to say that Lu Zhanguo has become an attractive target now, with many units ready to head-hunt him.

Liu Hongbing sighed: "Why can’t I let it go? Let’s set a marriage for the children. When the children get married, we can still be together."

Lu Zhanguo gave Liu Hongbing a dark look: "Keep dreaming."

...

After being repeatedly rejected by Xiaopang, Liu Jiajia finally gave up standing on the sidelines, watching Mo Wang and Xiaopang playing cards, while mumbling incessantly: "Xiaopang, if you play with me, I’ll give you my favorite gun."

"Don’t want it!"
