A 1970s mom raises a cute baby, and a crazy boss spoils her

Zhuo Yifan didn't say anything. Although this result was beyond his expectations, from another perspective, it might not be a bad thing.

The better Xu Huaian is, the happier he is.

He waved his hand and told them to go down and rest first, as a tough battle would soon be about to begin.

Xu Huaian went to the locker room to wash and change clothes.

"What do you think? Did I lie to you? The one I brought here is worth six!" Tang Zhenye couldn't hide his proud look.

Zhuo Yifan smiled helplessly: "You are still the best, okay! Have you told him? Does he agree to go?

He is not a member of our team now, and is not under our command. If he disagrees... everything will be in vain."

Zhuo Yifan was deliberately using provocation, he was determined to take this temporary soldier!

Tang Zhenye then remembered that he had not mentioned this matter to Xu Huaian, but he was confident that Xu Huaian would agree.

"If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten about it. I haven't told him yet. You're just afraid that you look down on me!"

"You can just laugh secretly! Such good soldiers were wasted by you. It's such a waste of resources." Zhuo Yifan said unwillingly.

"What did you mean by waste of resources?" Tang Zhenye almost blew his beard and glared.

...

As the two were talking, Xu Huaian came out wiping his hair and fell silent instantly.

"Huaian, weren't you just wondering why I asked you to participate in this competition?

Let me tell you this! The Ministry of National Defense is facing a bit of a problem right now.

A wave of terrorists secretly sneaked into the suburbs of Beijing. They hid in a mountain range on the outskirts of Beijing, attempting to undermine the security of Beijing, and carried weapons with them.

The Ministry of National Defense is preparing to send a small combat team to the front line to find the enemy's hideout, but they couldn't find someone who was good at mountain warfare to be the team leader at the moment, so I recommended you to General Zhuo.

Fighting in complex terrains has always been your strong point, and you have a lot of practical experience, so you can easily deal with all kinds of emergencies.

The only problem now is..."

Tang Zhenye paused, looked at Xu Huaian, and asked seriously: "I think you can do it, are you willing to go?"

Admiral Zhuo also looked at him expectantly, and both of them were waiting for his answer.

Only then did Xu Huaian know the whole story.

To be honest, this was a challenge for him because he had an uncertain disease.

But it’s also a great opportunity.

Tang Zhenye was indeed considering him. This opportunity was rare. Once he completed the task, he would be able to show his face in the Ministry of National Defense. Even if he did not return to the army in the future, he would have other ways to go and rise to the top.

Tang Zhenye's power is mostly in the army. If he cannot recover, there is relatively little that Tang Zhenye can do to help him.

Zhuo Yifan is different.

Two years ago, he might not have cared so much about his identity and future. He could just get by on life anyway and might even have given up the benefits of his discharge from the army without hesitation.

But two years later, his mentality has changed dramatically.

The abandonment of his parents, the pressure of life, and the hardships he had endured in the past two years made him realize that the thing that one should never give up is to become a better self.

Life is not black and white. Only when you become stronger can you do more of what you want to do and strive to become a better person. This is very important to him.

In order to stand better by Gu Qinghuan, in order to better protect the person I love, and in order to be able to stand in front of her and shield her from the wind and rain next time.

And also to achieve a better self.

He had to accept this mission, he had no other choice.

Moreover, even if there were no such benefits, the old leader had shown him kindness and he would not refuse him.

The patriotic education he received also did not allow him to retreat at the critical moment.

It only took a moment to think so much.

"If there is a war, I will return when called back. This is the mission of every soldier and I have no choice but to do it." Xu Huaian said firmly.

"Good boy! I knew you wouldn't let me down!" Tang Zhenye patted his shoulder happily.

Zhuo Yifan also gave a satisfied smile.

“In order to prevent any emergencies, we are going to conduct a final test on you regarding your illness.

Time is tight and you have one night to prepare for departure and say goodbye to your family. You know the principle of confidentiality. Although you are no longer a soldier, what you are doing is related to the safety of the people and should not be taken lightly.

The six people just now will be your comrades who will fight alongside you in the future. I hope you can conquer them not only with force, but also with your leadership charm. "

Of course Xu Huaian knew.

Zhuo Yifan was already prepared. The psychologist he invited to test Xu Huaian turned out to be his old acquaintance Xiao Zhuo.

Considering that he had a history of getting emotionally violent when seeing blood, and even though plasma was used to stimulate him, Xu Huaian did not react at all.

As for the use of guns, this is a skill ingrained in his bones, and there is no incentive for him to do so.

After Xiao Zhuo conducted a comprehensive test on Xu Huaian, he felt that he could basically control his emotions and would not lose control easily.

Tang Zhenye and Zhuo Yifan were relieved when they learned the result.

It was difficult to find a suitable candidate.

Xu Huaian was clear about his situation. He always carried the medicines and spiritual spring water prepared by Gu Qinghuan with him, so that if anything really happened, he could take the medicine in time.

So he wasn't really too worried about losing control again.

It was already one o'clock in the morning when the test was completed. Xiao Zhuo took him back to the small villa on his way home.

Xiao Zhuo didn't ask anything, but he seemed to know everything.

Before getting off the car, he suddenly said to Xu Huaian: "Have a safe journey and return safely."

Xu Huaian smiled: "Thank you, I will."

In fact, Xiao Zhuo was often invited by various departments to perform such inspection tasks, but this was the first time he met an acquaintance.

Thinking that Xu Huaian was about to go on a dangerous mission, he was worried about him.

When Xu Huaian returned home, the children were already asleep in Lanting's room.

You Ran cried all night and wanted to find her mother. Bei Bei was infected by her and also kept clamoring to find Gu Qinghuan.

Dabao and Lanting had been coaxing the baby all night and had just fallen asleep for a while.

Xu Huaian touched the children and felt very guilty. He was about to leave and had to leave the children to Gu Qinghuan and Lan Ting to take care of them. He really owed them a lot.

But he had to go this time.

He didn't want to hide behind Gu Qinghuan all his life. He wanted to be the one who held an umbrella for her. He wanted to be the one who was worthy of her!

"Lanting, I'm going to be away for a few days. I'll be thankful for your help during this time." Xu Huaian said calmly.

Gu Lanting didn't realize what he was going to do at this time, and said unhappily: "Where are you going? My sister has been working hard enough, can't you stay at home and help her?"

"You will know later." Xu Huaian just said something incomprehensible.

Xu Huaian packed a few pieces of underwear and a photo of his family, lay down in his clothes for a while, and then went out.

He originally wanted to leave immediately, but he couldn't bear to leave Gu Qinghuan and wanted to see her again. He didn't know if she was still angry about what happened yesterday.

At five o'clock in the morning, the patients in the hospital were still resting, and Xu Huaian gently opened the door of the ward.

Zhong Luo Ning was a light sleeper and was soon awakened.

Gu Qinghuan was also awakened by the sound of the door opening. She saw Xu Huaian in a daze and lay down again.

"Xu Huaian, why are you here so early?" It's not time for dinner yet.

"I'm here to say goodbye to you." Xu Huaian said softly.

"What?" These words completely wiped out Gu Qinghuan's sleepiness, and he turned over and sat up.

"I have something to do, so I have to go out for a few days. I'm sorry to trouble you at home." Xu Huaian stared at her deeply, as if he wanted to engrave it into his heart, but the words he spoke were light.

Gu Qinghuan stood up and put on her cotton jacket, then asked anxiously, "Where are you going?"

The two men simply ignored Zhong Luoning, who pretended to turn her back and sleep to leave space for the two men.

"The old leader asked me to help with a small matter. Don't worry, I'll be back in a few days." Xu Huaian gently helped her lift the loose hair in front of her forehead and looked at her reluctantly.

Gu Qinghuan understood instantly. It was a matter in the army, so if she couldn’t tell anyone about it, then she couldn’t tell anyone about it.

This is a good thing. Xu Huaian can do what she is good at and what she likes to do. It is better than being a nanny at home taking care of children all day, which makes people less and less confident.

She didn't like the jealous and nagging attitude he showed yesterday.

In her mind, Xu Huaian should be proud, confident and sunny.

That's why she was so angry.

Sometimes a person's growth really requires carrying a lot of things. Xu Huaian has no one to help him and no good father, so he can only rely on his own hands.

If she could bear more, she would help him.

It's not just about helping him, it seems like I'm also helping myself when I first entered society many years ago.

Having nothing, cowardly, humble, and having a strong sense of unworthiness, is just like Xu Huaian now.

He needs a chance to step out and be reborn. By that time, he will have many choices, see more people and a bigger world.

If at that time, he was still willing to stick to his original intention, she thought, she would give him a chance, and also give herself a chance.

"Don't worry! I will take good care of the two children and wait for your safe return."

Xu Huaian still couldn't help himself and pulled her into his arms: "Wait for me to come back."

"Okay!" Gu Qinghuan hugged him back tightly.

Xu Huaian turned around and left very decisively. He didn't dare look back, fearing that he would be reluctant to leave.

He had been on many missions before, and each time he was very straightforward and had never been this scared.

He knew that Gu Qinghuan would take good care of the children, and what he was afraid of was that he would never have the chance to see her again.

It turns out that loving someone really makes you timid and afraid of death.

Gu Qinghuan caught up with him and stuffed something into his arms.

"Be sure to come back safely. The children and I will be waiting for you."
