The young lady of the principal*064 misses you, so she rushed over

  "Don't worry about these things, tomorrow when you see them, speak carefully and don't be too loud. If they get scared of you, it's on you!" Pei Yun was notoriously straightforward and quick-tongued, and Gu Bei Chen couldn't help but feel a bit uneasy about his mouth.

  "The first lady asked what I answered, absolutely no more words!" The response was quite straightforward, but whether it can be said to be done is hard to say.

  There was already a commotion on the east playground, and Gu Beichen didn't have any extra time to give further instructions. Now he just hoped that the situation at the avalanche site wasn't too severe, and it would be best if they could complete the rescue work before dawn.

  Gu Beichen quickly packed his bags and prepared to head to the eastern playground. As he passed by the infirmary, a white figure suddenly flashed out from behind him, "Are you going to personally go to the avalanche scene?"

  The one who spoke was none other than Ye Shanshan, the female soldier sister that Gu Xineran had seen on her personal homepage that day.

  "How come you're still not back home?" Gu Bei Chen didn't expect Shu Yue was still there.

  Shu Yue lazily stopped asking questions, took off his white robe and grabbed his coat, wanting to follow along. "I also want to join the rescue team."

  "Stop messing around! Go back and rest, we'll set off early tomorrow to return to G City. Your parents are still waiting for you to go home for the New Year, don't disappoint them." In Gu Bei Chen's eyes, Shu Yue was like his own little sister, and he basically spoke to her in the same tone as he did with Xiao Ran.

  In the past, every Spring Festival was spent with Gu Bei Chen taking the same flight back to G City. This year, however, she was alone, which made her feel uncomfortable and unwilling. "You only know how to tell me off, why don't you go back to accompany your uncle and aunt for the New Year?"

  "You don't know, my wife is bringing Xiaoxiao to visit relatives, arriving tomorrow." Gu Beichen replied while checking his watch, "I'm in a hurry, no more talk. Go back and rest, when you get home help me greet your parents."

  Gu Bei Chen's back disappeared quickly into the night, but Shu Yue was still in a daze.

  His wife? Ha! Look at her memory, how could she forget such an important thing? Director Gu is now a married man, even if he doesn't go home, there's someone to accompany him for the New Year.

  The long night had finally passed, the alarm clock hadn't gone off yet, but Ye Shanshan couldn't wait to open her eyes, with an excited face she pushed Xiao Meng awake, "Little lazy pig, get up."

  Still laughing and not fully awake, she sat up and rubbed her eyes while yawning, "Hmmm... is it morning?"

  "It's almost 7 o'clock, time to get up." In the cold winter season, the sun rises late, and it's still a bit dark outside, but Ye Shanshan's smile on her face is brighter than the midday sunshine.

  After a few yawns, Xiaoxiao was fully awake. The bright smile on her mother's face clearly entered her eyes: "Mom looks so happy."

  Ye Shanshan didn't deny it, and there wasn't a hint of shyness on her face. "In just five more hours, you'll get to see Dad, aren't you excited?"

  "Great! Great!" The little kid said it's going to rain, clapping hands and jumping around, almost doing flips on the bed.

  Ye Shanshan walked downstairs with a smile, and Gu's parents and Gu Xiran were already seated at the dining table. A sumptuous breakfast had also been served, waiting for the two of them to take their seats.

  "There's also mousse cake for breakfast, great!" Today's breakfast is really sumptuous, and Xixi has another reason to be happy.

  The old lady smiled and pulled her granddaughter over to sit beside her, "Look how excited you are."

  "It won't be long before I see Dad, of course I'm happy!" Little Greedy Cat held a spoon in one hand and a cup of milk in the other, grinning from ear to ear.

  The breakfast at Gu's house began with a burst of laughter, while in City B, Gu Beichen was still working hard to find survivors buried under the heavy snow. The situation at the avalanche site was more severe than he had imagined, and the strong winds and low temperatures at night also brought no small difficulties to the rescue efforts. Judging from the current progress, it seemed impossible for him to make it to the airport on time.

  At 9:05, Ye Shanshan and Xiao Xiao boarded the flight to B City. Although neither of them was a first-time flyer, this trip held special meaning for both of them, so they were both excited. During turbulence, many passengers were anxious, but they remained calm, their faces filled with anticipation as they imagined seeing Gu Shou Zhang waiting for them in the arrivals hall as soon as they exited the airport.

  Unfortunately, cruel reality played a big joke on them.

  The plane arrived at B City International Airport on time, and after getting off the plane, they still had to walk a distance to reach the arrival hall. Xiao Xiao suggested calling Dad first, "There are so many people picking up, we have to let Dad stand in a conspicuous place, so that we can see him as soon as we come out."

  Xiao Xiao kept pulling her hand back and forth, Ye Shanshan couldn't get away from her, so she took out her phone and dialed Gu Shou Zhang's number.

  The "dudu" sound lasted for nearly 40 seconds, but the phone still didn't connect. Finally, there was only a voice prompt saying "Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable".

  What's going on? Wasn't it because there were too many people at the airport and it was too noisy that he didn't hear the phone ringing?

  Ye Shanshan thought so in her heart and also explained it to Xiaoxiao. However, as the two of them got closer to the arrival hall, they couldn't see anyone wearing a military uniform among the bustling crowd, and a bad premonition involuntarily rose from her heart.

  Director Gu has always been punctual, if nothing happened, he would definitely not be late.

  "Mommy, what's going on? I didn't see Daddy." Unlike Mommy's worry and concern, Xiaoxiao felt more disappointment and anxiety in her heart.

  "Let's wait a bit longer, maybe he's been held up." Ye Shanshan's heart was already in a mess, but she still tried to calm herself down and comfort Xiaoxiao.

  The two of them soon arrived at the domestic arrivals area, with the luggage claim on the left and the exit on the right. But Ye Shanshan could only stand there stupidly. There was too much luggage, she couldn't carry it all by herself. More importantly, she couldn't see Gu Shou's figure anywhere, making her anxious.

  Ye Shanshan's mood was heavy, and she had no intention of finding Principal Gu in the crowd. Instead, Xiao Xiao's sharp eyes caught something unusual: "Mommy, look! There's someone holding a sign over there with our names on it."

  It really is, and that person was wearing a military uniform, with an anxious face, looking like he came to pick someone up.

  "Why don't we go ask them?" Having finally seen a glimmer of hope, Ye Shanshan hastily wanted to go forward and verify.

  Just as I was about to answer, I looked up and saw the PLA uncle holding a signboard walking quickly towards us. "Mommy, he's coming."

  Ye Shanshan was just about to greet him when Pei Yun rushed over and apologized, "Sorry, I'm late."

  Pei Yun's anxious face was no less than Ye Shanshan and Xiao Xiao, but Gu Shou had specifically instructed him that he couldn't let his sister-in-law and little princess wait for him. As a result, because the name on the sign was written incorrectly, he worried that people would laugh at him, so he remade one. After a lot of fuss, he just missed the moment when they came out.

  "It's okay, we just arrived too." Ye Shanshan had already realized that Gu Shou would not be able to make it, but since he sent someone else, there must be something important that kept him away. Thinking this way, her tension and worry lessened a bit, "Hello, I'm Ye Shanshan, who are you?"

  "Sister-in-law, I'm Pei Yun, the logistics director of the 7th Division of K Military Region. General Gu sent me to pick you up." Pei Yun still gave a standard military salute, showing respect since the person in front of him was after all General Gu's family member.

  Ye Shanshan was startled by Pei Yun's military salute and could only bow her head in greeting, "You've worked hard."

  "Sister-in-law is too polite, these are what I should do." Pei Yun was in charge of reception work in the army and naturally became familiar with socializing.

  Bai Yun has already said that he was sent by Director Gu, but Xiao Xiao still misses her father: "Uncle, where is my dad? Why didn't he come to pick us up?"

  "Director Gu has an urgent task and can't rush back to the city." Pei Yun didn't forget Director Gu's warning, not daring to mention the word "avalanche", "Sister, haven't you picked up your luggage yet? Take me there quickly."

  "Thank you." Ye Shanshan smiled with gratitude and walked ahead, holding Xiaoxiao's hand.

  Last night, when looking at the photos, Pei Yun was startled. Today, seeing the real person, his little heart suffered another huge blow. The first lady is younger and more beautiful than in the photos. If he hadn't known beforehand about her relationship with Director Gu, he would have thought that the mother-daughter pair walking ahead were sisters!

  Director Gu is really lucky, no wonder he's been in such a good mood for the past few months. Even when scolding people, he's not as strict as before. Tsk, being in love really makes a difference.

  "Dad is so annoying! He promised to come pick us up himself, but he didn't keep his word!" After confirming that Dad wouldn't show up, Xiaoxiao's heart was left with only disappointment.

  "Didn't Uncle just say that Dad had an urgent task and didn't want to come?" Ye Shanshan's mood had gradually calmed down, whether Principal Gu came in person or not was no longer important to her, as long as he was safe and sound.

  Mom said it makes sense, and Xiao Xiao didn't dare to continue staring at this issue. However, it's impossible for her not to miss Dad, "Uncle, can we see Dad when we get back?"

  "This... I'm also not sure, if everything goes smoothly, it should be fine." Before coming, Pei Yun had also asked people about the situation at the avalanche site, and it seemed that things didn't sound too good, so he didn't dare to give a definite answer.

  "What's the point of being able to? Aren't all military tasks planned, shouldn't there be a rough end time? As someone who grew up in a military family, Xiaoxiao has some understanding of military matters from listening and learning since childhood, it's all systematic."

  "Smile, don't ask so many questions, Dad is going to work, not to play. When he finishes his work, he will naturally come back." Ye Shanshan has always been clear about public and private matters, never actively asking about Gu Shou's official business in the army, and this time was no exception. Moreover, she had always believed that no matter how difficult the task, it would not be a problem for the all-powerful Commander Gu.

  After hearing the commander's wife's response, Pei Yun couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration: She was indeed the kind of woman Commander Gu had taken a liking to. Although she looked like a big kid, her awareness wasn't any less than that of a seasoned military wife. He hoped Commander Gu could complete his mission as soon as possible and return to the camp before Auntie and Little Princess returned, so they could see him as soon as they got back.

  Following Director Gu's instructions last night, Pei Yun first took Director Gu's wife and little princess to have lunch before leaving for the camp. When it was time to pay the bill after finishing their meal, Ye Shanshan rushed to pay, making Pei Yun extremely embarrassed, "This can't be done, sister has come from afar and is also a guest in the military, how can we let you pay the bill!"

  "Don't be polite to me, my money was given by your boss, just consider it as him treating you." Ye Shanshan insisted on paying and forcibly returned the two red bills that Pei Yun took out. "The more we delay, the more crowded the train will be, let's set off early." Although she didn't say it out loud, Ye Shanshan's mood was the same as Xiao Xiao's, she also hoped to see her boss as soon as possible after returning.

  "Yes, yes, Uncle Pei hurry up and drive over, can't let Dad wait for us." Xiao Xiao also followed to urge, listening to her tone, it seemed like Captain Gu had already returned to the camp.

  At this time, Director Gu was still at the avalanche scene. He had just eaten two steamed buns with hot water, barely getting through lunch. Although the blocked roads had been largely cleared and most of the trapped residents had been transferred to a safe area, life detection signals were still being detected by probing instruments in the rubble buried under the heavy snow.

  According to information provided by nearby residents, there were two children living in this house. Their father was being treated in a hospital in the city and their mother was taking care of him. Last night, only the two children should have been at home.

  Since it's a rescue mission, the task won't be considered complete until all survivors are rescued, which also means that Gu Bei Chen and his soldiers still need to make more efforts.

  So, Ye Shanshan and Xiao Xiao arrived at the troop's camp with full expectation, only to face another disappointment.

  "What's that... or I'll go to the logistics department to get a spare key for the family quarters, and send you there to rest first?" Pei Yun had already inquired about it. Director Gu's rescue operation was not yet complete, and it was still unknown whether he could make it back this afternoon. The living environment of the camp was not as good as that of the family quarters, so he made this suggestion.

  "No need, we'll just wait for him here. If you have something to do, go ahead and take care of it first." The reception room was very simple, with only a table, four chairs, and a pot of hot tea. The heating wasn't even sufficient. Compared to her home in G City, this environment was nothing, but after sitting down, Ye Shanshan felt an unprecedented sense of solidity, because she knew that by sitting here, she had taken one step closer to the person she thought about day and night.

  "Go, you two sit down first, I'll go prepare some fruit for you." The person had been successfully picked up, but Pei Yun's heart couldn't relax for a moment. Until he safely handed the two of them over to Director Gu, his task wouldn't be considered complete. However, being able to interact with the young and beautiful Director's wife at such close proximity was also his good fortune - this kind of opportunity was something others would beg for but couldn't get.

  Pei Yun had already brought the news of Mrs. Gu and Little Princess to the barracks, and Shu Yue, who was hesitating about when to return home, also heard it.

  She went to the infirmary to get some information when two new recruits who came over to change their dressings were also discussing this matter.

  New recruit Xia Mei's face was flushed with excitement as she chattered on, "I'm telling you, the commander's wife looks just like a high school student, she's totally a little loli."

  "Captain Gu's taste is really something else, how can he eat this tender grass?!" New recruit Yi looked like he was just in his early twenties, and since he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, his face showed more curiosity than disbelief.

  Shu Yue, who was listening on the side, couldn't help but interrupt with a sentence, "Are you sure what you saw wasn't Gu's daughter?"

  Xiao Zhao, the new recruit who had seen the beautiful face of the commander's wife with his own eyes, was certain: "Dr. Shu is really joking, the daughter of Commander Gu's family is just a few years old, how could I have mistaken her! Besides, I heard Director Pei call her 'sister-in-law' with my own ears, it must be true!"

  "...do you know where Director Pei has arranged for them to stay?" As soon as Xiao Zhao said this, Shu Yue became even more curious, she couldn't wait to see with her own eyes the wife of the newly arrived leader who had caused quite a stir.

  "Resting in the waiting room, maybe thinking of waiting for Director Gu..." Xiaozhao's words were cut off as Shuyue, who had come back to fetch some documents, walked out of the medical office with empty hands and big strides.

  Another new recruit, Little Guo, stretched his neck and looked around curiously, asking, "Is Doctor Shu a woman? Why is she also so interested in Director Gu's wife?"

  "Everyone has a heart that loves beauty. These days, women also love to look at beautiful women!" Little Zhao smiled and raised an eyebrow, with a hint of aftertaste still on his face.

  Just as Director Gu worried, the big men in the army usually see female soldiers wearing military uniforms, and it's rare to meet someone different from them. It's strange if they're not infatuated.

  Shu Yue hurried to the reception room, and as she turned the corner of the stairs, she happened to see Pei Yun coming down. She quickly went forward to ask: "Is Director Gu's family still here?"

  Pei Yunru was overjoyed to see him, and warmly welcomed him forward. "Doctor Shu has arrived just in time, I'm a big man and don't know what to chat with them about. You go keep them company for a bit, if they feel bored, you can take them around."

  It's hard to come by a comfortable natural state, "Great, I'm off this afternoon, just in time to have some free time."

  Xiao Xiao urged Mommy to call Daddy again, Ye Shanshan was entangled by her and had no choice but to pick up the phone. Just as she was about to make the call, a knock at the door suddenly came from outside. She thought it was Pei Yun and quickly got up to open the door.

  But what she didn't expect was that standing at the door, besides Pei Yun, there was another person she had seen on her computer before.

  Ye Shanshan hadn't yet recovered from her shock when Pei Yun led Shu Yue inside, "I'll introduce you, this is Dr. Shu from the infirmary, and this is Director Gu's wife."

  Although somewhat surprised, Ye Shanshan still politely extended her hand first, "Hello, I'm Ye Shanshan."

  "Hello, Madam. I'm Shu Yue." In fact, Shu Yue was just as shocked and amazed as Ye Shan Shan, but she had a stronger control over her emotions, concealing them almost perfectly.

  Xiao Zhao was right, Director Gu's wife really does look like a high school student. Her facial features and temperament are similar to those of a high school student, and her clothes and accessories are also similar. The cartoon-patterned scarf and red over-the-knee boots are something she wouldn't even dare to dream of wearing.

  What's wrong with Director Gu, how could he fall for such a naive and immature little girl?

  After the introduction, Pei Yun hurriedly stepped forward and suggested, "There are only three female soldiers in this area, and the other two have gone on a mission with Captain Lin. Now only Dr. Shu is left, why don't we let her stay and chat with you?"

  "You go ahead and attend to your business first, I'll be fine here."

  "You chat, I'll go ahead and ask around about Director Gu's task progress." With Pei Yun's words, Ye Shanshan's chance to decline politely was completely stripped away.

  After Pei Yun left, Xiao Xiao who had been quietly observing from the side suddenly spoke up, "Mommy, I've seen this aunt before."

  Shu Yue didn't expect Xiao Xiao's memory to be so good, and she was momentarily flustered. In her impression, she had only met Xiao Xiao twice, and that was several years ago. The little girl actually still remembered her. This was also good, being recognized by the little girl allowed her to follow up on their conversation and explain her relationship with Director Gu, "Are you Xiao Xiao?"

  "This is something Ye Shanshan didn't expect, 'Do you know our family's Xiaoxiao?'"

  Shu Yue smiled and nodded, "I'm from G City just like Director Gu. Before the Gu family moved to Jing'an District, our two families lived very close to each other. At that time, I was classmates with Xiao Ran, and sometimes we would go play at the Gu's house. After joining the army, Director Gu took good care of me. During Spring Festival two years ago, I visited Director Gu's new home once, and met Xiaoxiao for the first time, she was still in kindergarten then, and now she's grown up so much."

  "Oh." Ye Shanshan responded casually, and her mood, which had just calmed down, became annoyed again.

  "Shu Yue Auntie, do you know where my dad went?" Xiaoxiao didn't care about that much, she thought: since this aunt is so familiar with Dad, she must know where Dad is.

  "Didn't Director Gu tell you?" Shu Yue didn't know what Director Gu was worried about, and no one had told her, but according to her temperament, she would definitely say something.

  Judging from Shu Yue's tone, she must know where Gu Shou Zhang went. Ye Shan Shan couldn't help but ask out of curiosity: "He didn't say, can you tell us?"

  Shu Yue opened her mouth and replied: "Last night, a snowslide occurred in the Qinshan area, and Director Gu led his team to rush to the rescue."

  Avalanche? Ye Shanshan's eyes went dark for a moment, and she subconsciously imagined a lot of things. Her already disturbed heart had become a tangled mess.

  "Don't take things too seriously, the captain is just going to rescue people, nothing will happen." Seeing the captain's wife looking disheartened, Shu Yue also realized that she might have said something she shouldn't have, but since the words were already out, it was impossible to take them back, so she could only try to make amends.

  "Is the avalanche site far from here?" Ye Shanshan didn't listen at all and even had the idea of going to the scene to confirm it personally.

  Shu Yue didn't seem to have thought of this, "Not very far, about a 40-minute drive."

  Ye Shanshan suddenly stood up and casually grabbed her coat from the clothes rack and put it on.

  Xiao Xiao's quick wit made her guess what Mommy was up to at a glance, and she hurriedly followed, hugging her leg. "Mommy, I want to go too."

  Shu Yue suddenly reacted, "You... aren't thinking of going to the avalanche site, are you?"

  "Doctor Shu, can I trouble you to take a look at Xiao Xiao?" Ye Shanshan didn't respond directly, but her sincere request had already given the best answer.

  "Don't go, Mommy! How can you leave me all alone!" Xiaoxiao definitely wouldn't let her go, and pulled on her mother's arm with all his might.

  Ye Shanshan was also at a loss, and could only squat down, patiently coaxing, "Smile, dear, Mommy is just going to take a look, and after confirming that Daddy is safe and sound, I'll be right back. Very soon, before dinner for sure, okay?"

  "None of you are allowed to go!" Shu Yue obviously didn't expect things to develop like this, and for a moment he was also somewhat anxious. His tone of voice carried a few parts of the dignity that a military officer should have: "Director Gu is leading the soldiers in disaster relief efforts, aren't you just going to add to the chaos?"

  "I just took a look from afar and confirmed that he's fine before coming back." Ye Shanshan repeated what she said earlier, only with a firmer tone. To be honest, she didn't like the tone Dr. Shu used earlier. She just wanted to confirm whether her husband was safe or not; outsiders shouldn't make judgments so easily.

  "Mommy, take me with you, I'll be good and listen to you, whatever you tell me to do, I'll do it." Xiaoxiao also knew that Mommy's decisions were hard to change, but she still wanted to try her best.

  "Mommy has already made preparations to write a self-criticism, do you want to be like me too?" Although she kept saying that she would only watch from afar and not get close, Ye Shanshan actually had no bottom line in her heart. If she accidentally got discovered by the principal, writing a self-criticism might still be a light punishment, but she didn't want to implicate Xiao Xiao and have them both punished together.

  After listening to her mother, Xiao Xiao finally wavered a bit. If Dad really got angry, it might not be just making Mom write a self-criticism letter, if she insisted on following him, she might also drag Mom into more severe punishment, and she couldn't bear it.

  This mother and daughter really have a deep understanding of each other, always thinking of each other at critical moments.

  After thinking for a moment, Xiao smiled and compromised: "Okay, I'll stay obediently, but you have to promise me that you'll bring Dad back quickly."

  Smiling and compromising, Ye Shanshan also let out a sigh of relief. "Don't worry, as long as he's fine, we'll definitely be back soon. Here, take Mommy's phone with you, I'll call you first when we get back. There are cakes and chocolate beans in the snack bag, eat them yourself if you're hungry."

  "Oh." She smiled and responded with a sob, cleverly helping her mother bring over the gloves and hat, "It's very cold outside, don't get frostbite."

  Ye Shanshan was deeply moved, and with great effort, she forced a smile, bent down and kissed her daughter's forehead, "Listen to Dr. Shu's words, I'm leaving."

  Looking at the determined expression of Director's wife, Shu Yue also realized the severity of the matter. If Director really pursued it, she would be the culprit and was afraid of being punished. "Eh, are you really going?"

  "Thank you." Ye Shanshan still didn't respond directly, sincerely asking a sentence after which she put on her hat and gloves and walked out of the reception room.

  Needless to say, the next person to be bothered by her would be Director Bae. She was new and unfamiliar with everyone, so who else could she bother but him?

  Pei Yun spoke up and begged for mercy, "Director's wife, please spare me, if Director Gu finds out, I won't be able to bear the responsibility!"

  "Don't worry, I'll take full responsibility." Although Ye Shanshan looked like a high school girl to others, she had an aura that was in no way inferior to the soldiers in the army.

  "Avalanches are no joke, we can't just rush in like this, what if there's some kind of danger..."

  "Because there's danger, I must go," Ye Shuang interrupted Pei Yun's well-meaning advice hastily. "I've come all the way here just to see him. If I'm not certain he's safe and sound, how can I be at peace?"

  Pei Yun was blocked by her and had no temper left, so she had to change her strategy: "You underestimate Director Gu too much, this task is absolutely..."

  Unfortunately, he still couldn't finish what he wanted to say this time either ——

  "It's better if nothing happens, let's just take a look from afar."

  This time Pei Yun was completely speechless. "Alright, alright, I admit defeat. You find a place to take shelter first, I'll go start the car and come out."

  "Thank you, thank you." Ye Shanshan thanked excitedly while bowing, scaring Pei Yun's legs weak and heart cold.

  "Don't bow anymore, I can't take it."

  As the saying goes, it's hardest to refuse a beauty's kindness. The general's wife had gone out of her way to do him this great favor, and from then on he couldn't bear to refuse any request she made.

  Pei Yun quickly drove out in a military off-road vehicle, specially prepared for the mountain road. Ye Shanshan's full set of cartoon warm clothing and red boots on this car were really not ordinary, making Pei Yun want to laugh but dare not laugh.

  It's no use hiding it; the sharp-minded head's wife can still see through it: "What's wrong?"

  "It's nothing, I just haven't seen a girl as youthful and beautiful as my sister-in-law in a long time, so I was a bit distracted." Pei Yun is indeed good at receiving guests, his mouth skills are not sloppy at all. In this regard, Director Gu should learn from him."

  "You must be thinking that I'm just a naive kid who's prone to making a big deal out of nothing, and now I'm dragging you into this mess." The car had already started moving, and Ye Shanshan's mood had actually calmed down, which is why she was in the mood to chat casually with Director Pei.

  Pei Yun hastily denied it, "I swear to heaven, I've never thought of such a thing!"

  "It's okay, you're right to think that way. I also know I'm being very selfish, but...I really miss him and want to see him soon." In front of Director Gu, Ye Shanshan definitely couldn't say such things. But now she really needed to confide in someone, and her intuition told her that Director Pei was a trustworthy good person who would never spread what she said around.

  "Got it, I'll do my best to let Sister see Captain Gu as soon as possible." Pei Yun, although still a lone wolf, also yearned for beautiful love in his heart. He also knew that the probability of beautiful love happening in the army was not high, so he would sincerely be happy for Captain Gu. Of course, while feeling happy, he couldn't help but feel a little envious and even jealous.

  Pei Yun's driving skills are excellent, even on mountain roads, he can speed up as much as possible while keeping the car stable. Shu Yue just said it would take almost 40 minutes to get to Qinshan District, but now that only half an hour has passed, the car has entered a congested section of road caused by a snowslide, which also means that they are not far from where Gu Shou is carrying out his emergency rescue mission.

  After passing the road sign indicating the way to Wulan Village, Pei Yun hastily reported to the head's wife, "It's just ahead of Wulan Village, we'll be there soon."

  "Uh... should we get off and walk?" As they got closer and closer to the Prime Minister, Ye Shanshan started to feel nervous again.

  "No rush, I have a plan in mind. Let's wait until we see the army vehicles and then talk." The mountain road was not easy to walk on, with low temperatures and wind, Pei Yunke didn't dare let the leader's wife get out of the car and freeze.

  Listening to Pei Yun say this, Ye Shanshan also grew a mind and finally she was the first to discover the military vehicle. "Stop! I saw the military vehicle."

  She scared him like that, and Pei Yun was a little dazed for a moment. The car braked a bit urgently, making quite a commotion.

  Unfortunately, there were soldiers next to the military vehicle in front who were looking for digging tools. Hearing the noise, their line of sight was also drawn over.

  "Have we been discovered?" Ye Shanshan cautiously shrunk her neck, looking like a thief.

  "You stay in the car, I'll go take a look." Pei Yun thought to himself: The soldiers who heard the noise had already moved towards the sound, and it was only a matter of time before they were exposed. It might as well be better to show up voluntarily.

  Seeing Director Pei get off the car and walk over, Soldier Wei hurriedly waved his hand to greet him, "Director Pei, have you come to deliver our lunch?"

  "Where is Director Gu?" Pei Yun ignored Xiao Wei's half-joking, half-serious teasing and directly got to the point.

  "In the front, there was a residential building that collapsed for the second time, and two children were trapped inside. He is thinking of ways to rescue them." Speaking of the situation on site, Xiao Wei's tone became much more serious.

  "Was anyone hurt?"

  "In over ten hours, more than a hundred people were rescued, it's impossible that no one was injured, but none of them are seriously hurt." Xiao Wei replied while staring at the military vehicle not far away, "Director Pei, I see there is a little girl sitting on your car?"

  "You're not mistaken, it's a little girl, and what's more, she's a very pretty and lovely little girl." Pei Yun was thinking about how to respond to the head's wife when he accidentally spoke the truth.

  "Whose is it?" After continuous fighting for over a dozen hours, Comrade Wei was also tired, so he wanted to find some conversation to relieve his boredom.

  "Protect the head of the Gu family." Not far away, Director Gu was approaching with a walkie-talkie in hand. Pei Yun deeply realized that this time he would really be exposed. Anyway, it's all going to end in death, might as well go all out.

  Xiao Wei's iron shovel fell to the ground with a clang, and his hand happened to land squarely on Pei Yun's back. Pei Yun, who was caught off guard, involuntarily let out a cry of surprise. Gu Shou, who was nearby, rushed over upon hearing the sound, "What are you doing here?"

  "I......" Director Gu's imposing aura was overwhelming, and after barely squeezing out a single word, Pei Yun didn't know how to continue.

  "Who did you come with?" The words were directed at Pei Yun, but Gu Beichen's eyes remained fixed on the military vehicle not far away.

  Pei Yun made an effort to lower his presence and replied in a low voice: "Head's wife."

  Gu Beichen didn't bother with him again and hastily walked towards a military vehicle not far away.

  Ye Shanshan, who was sitting in the car, also saw the approach of the leader. Now she had nowhere to hide, but she didn't dare get out of the car to face him.

  I was originally going to hide far away and take a look before leaving, but I didn't expect to be discovered so quickly.

  When he walked within three meters of the car, Gu Bei Chen suddenly stopped and said, "Ye Shanshan, are you thinking of writing a self-criticism again?"

  This time he's really angry, listen to this stern tone, it sounds like he's going to eat someone.

  But all of that doesn't matter anymore, seeing him standing in front of her safe and sound, she would be willing to write ten self-criticisms.

  With caution, Ye Shanshan opened the car door and got out. He was just ahead, only a few steps away, but she didn't dare to take a step forward, afraid that as soon as she approached him, he would suddenly disappear.

  "Who told you to come running over here?" Gu's anger had yet to dissipate.

  "I... I miss you." After thinking it over, Ye Shanshan still felt that this sentence was the most effective.

  It turned out she had gambled correctly! Four simple words were enough to shatter the anger in Gu Shou's heart.

  Digression

  Hehe, nice to meet you~
