"Knock knock knock." There was a knock on the door, causing the two people who were quietly doing their own things in the room to stop what they were doing at the same time.

Bai Youyou was sitting on the edge of the single bed, reading Sheng Zeyan's military theory book. After hearing the sound, Bai Youyou, who was closer to the door, stood up and opened the door immediately.

Sheng Zeyan, who was still sitting at the table writing a report, also stood up to see who it was.

The door opened, and standing at the door was Hao Tian's guard Xiao Chen. When Xiao Chen saw that it was Bai Youyou who opened the door, his eyes lit up and he was a little happy, but his expression was still serious. He looked at Sheng Zeyan standing behind him and said:

"Report, Captain Sheng, our division commander heard that my sister-in-law has come to the army and wants to invite you to have dinner with her in the cafeteria. He is already waiting for you there."

Bai Youyou was surprised when she heard that Hao Tian wanted to treat her to a meal, but then she thought that it might be because Hao Jiajia had also come to the army, and she was not so surprised.

"Ah! Let's eat. Is Jia Jia also here in the army? Where is she now?"

Xiao Chen looked at Bai Youyou with a smile on his face, "Sister-in-law, Commander Hao is not here. It's just that our division commander wanted to thank you and Battalion Commander Sheng. As for the rest, you'll know when you get there."

"Is that so?" After Bai Youyou finished speaking, she looked at Sheng Zeyan behind her. When Sheng Zeyan met Xiao Chen's gaze, he probably knew why Hao Tian wanted to invite them over.

Sheng Zeyan took a few steps forward, looked at Xiao Chen and said:

"Okay, please wait a moment, we'll get ready and go out."

Xiao Chen nodded and said, "Okay, Captain, I'll wait for you outside." After that, he took a few steps back and turned to face the playground outside.

After the door closed behind him, Xiao Chen was filled with excitement. "Ah! I can finally see my idol again. I wonder if I can hear his voice again today."

Thinking about the reason why Hao Tian came to see them today, he whispered, "It should be possible. I'm really looking forward to it."

In the room, Bai Youyou was still confused as she asked Sheng Zeyan, "Husband, why did Commander Hao ask us out? It's strange because we're not familiar with him. No matter what, he wouldn't treat us to a meal.

Although! I have a good relationship with Hao Jiajia, but that’s not a reason for him to treat us to a meal.”

"I don't know. Maybe he thinks you and Hao Jiajia are good friends, so he wants to treat you to a meal. Please take care of Hao Jiajia!"

While answering Bai Youyou's questions, Sheng Zeyan quickly organized the report he had just written. Fortunately, he had basically finished it and didn't need to write it again.

Bai Youyou was still a little unconvinced, and Luanluan asked, "Is that so?"

About five minutes later, the door opened and Sheng Zeyan walked out of the room holding Bai Youyou's hand. When he saw Xiao Chen waiting at the door, he said:

"Excuse me, let's go."

"Please," Xiao Chen took a step forward and walked to the front, while Sheng Zeyan followed him holding Bai Youyou's hand.

Because it was lunchtime, many people were watching them along the way.

After seeing who was walking ahead, some people whispered to their companions:

"Hey! Look, isn't that the guard next to the division commander? Why is he with Battalion Commander Sheng?"

"I don't know. The division commander's guards usually don't get close to anyone. Hey! Do you think he and Sheng Zeyan are good friends?"

"Probably not. I've never seen them together before. You said Xiao Chen came to see Sheng Zeyan. Does that mean the commander is supporting Sheng Zeyan?"

"This~, that shouldn't be the case." The companion answered uncertainly.

"Of course not. I think Captain Sheng is going to be promoted to the next level. If he is promoted again, he will become a deputy regimental-level cadre."

"Whatever, it's not us who's getting promoted, why are you overthinking it? Let's go. We're having sweet and sour pork ribs in the cafeteria today. If you're late, they'll be gone."

"Hurry up, hurry up. Sweet and sour pork ribs are my favorite."

……

When the three of them arrived at the cafeteria, Hao Tian was already there with several other people, sitting at a large table in a separate room in the cafeteria waiting for them.

After seeing Sheng Zeyan and Bai Youyou come in, he sat on a chair and asked them to sit down.

"Now that you're here, please sit down! Today is just an ordinary dinner, you're welcome."

Although he said so, Bai Youyou was still very nervous when she saw the people in the room, and her hand unconsciously tightened around Sheng Zeyan's.

Sheng Zeyan sensed her nervousness and squeezed her hand subtly to comfort her.

After Hao Tian finished speaking, he pulled Bai Youyou to sit down.

After Hao Tian watched them sit down, he began to introduce the people at the table to Sheng Zeyan and the others.

"This is Captain Huang, Captain Li, and Captain Kang. I have no special intention in inviting you to dinner this time, I just want you to get to know each other."

After Hao Tian finished speaking, he looked at Sheng Zeyan with a meaningful look, and Sheng Zeyan understood what his eyes meant.

Isn't it just that he wants his wife to see whether these people are reliable? Is there any need to go to so much trouble to treat them to a meal?

Doesn’t he know that Bai Youyou will be nervous?

Since Bai Youyou sat down, she just listened to them talking, quietly playing the role of a mute.

The dishes were served quickly. During the conversation, Hao Tian seemed to be chatting casually about some family matters, occasionally praising Sheng Zeyan's performance in the army.

Halfway through the meal, Hao Tian put down his chopsticks and his expression became serious.

He looked at Sheng Zeyan and said, "Zeyan, actually, I called you here for another matter.

The military district has a special mission and needs to select the best officers to go there. I recommend you.

But this mission is fraught with danger, and I'd like to hear your thoughts first."

Sheng Zeyan's eyes were firm, and he answered without hesitation:

"Commander, a soldier's duty is to obey orders. As long as the organization trusts me, I will do my best."

Bai Youyou nervously grabbed Sheng Zeyan's hand. Hao Tian nodded with satisfaction, then turned to Bai Youyou and said:

"Don't worry, sister-in-law, we will do our best to ensure Ze Yan's safe return."

"Commander, this isn't right! Although Captain Sheng is quite capable, we can't just let him go like this!

No matter what, there are still a few people as good as Captain Sheng in the army. We should give it another try, don’t you think? Captain Li, Captain Kang. "

Before Bai Youyou could utter her answer, Captain Huang at the side spoke first.

The two captains who were named put down their chopsticks and glanced at Captain Huang and Queen Hao. Captain Li smiled and said:

"Hehe, what Old Huang said is true. Commander, you should think carefully about it. After all, there are still many excellent people. We can also choose more people."

Hao Tian glanced at them, then turned to Captain Kang and said, "Old Kang, do you think so too?"

Kang Ning looked at Hao Tian, ​​then glanced at Sheng Zeyan before slowly saying:

"Commander, I fully recognize Xiao Sheng's abilities. I have no objection to assigning any mission to him."

Captain Huang was furious. "Lao Kang, do you know how important this mission is? He's a battalion commander with no background, what if something goes wrong?"

Who's going to cover for him? You?"

Sheng Zeyan looked at Captain Huang calmly, "Captain Huang, although I don't have a background, my abilities are obvious to all. Furthermore, I'm not afraid of taking risks. If I back down because I'm afraid of responsibility, that's not what a soldier does."

Huang Zhong was furious. "You know shit! Do you even know what this mission is? How dare you say such brazen things like that?"

Sheng Zeyan looked straight at Huang Zhong, "Although I don't know what the mission is, I will do my best."

"It's bullshit, just talking nonsense here." Huang Zhong still looked down on him.

Bai Youyou, who was standing by, became furious after hearing what Huang Zhong said.

"Xiao Ba, who is this guy? He's so annoying! Commander Hao has already decided to send my husband, so why is he talking nonsense here? Xiao Ba, let me see if he has any melons. I want to eat his melons."

After hearing Bai Youyou's inner thoughts, Hao Tian's mouth corners curled up unconsciously, while Xiao Chen, who had been standing, looked at Bai Youyou who was immersed in the conversation with his bright eyes.

Only Sheng Zeyan picked up food for her with a normal expression.

[Host, he has a big melon. ]

【Quick, tell me what it is. 】

[Host, he's a spy. The reason he's so opposed to your husband participating in this mission is because he wants to arrange for his men to sabotage the mission.]

"Hmm, another spy. Xiaoba, how long have you told me he's been at the base? He's already been the group leader, so he must have been lurking for quite some time."

[Well, it has been ten years. The reason why he was able to become the leader is of course because he also has a good father-in-law.

His father-in-law treated him with all his heart and soul. He paved the way for him, which is why he was able to become the head of the group so quickly.

[Well, it’s different having a good father-in-law.

If his father-in-law knew that he was a spy, I wonder what he would think.

Oh, Xiao Ba, can you check on the other two leaders? Are there any problems? I don't want them messing around when my husband is on a mission.

What if I threaten him? My husband will be dead.

[Do I need the host to tell you? I have already seen that among these three leaders, only Leader Kang is good.

The other two are not suitable. Although Captain Li is not a spy, he also wants his nephew to participate in this mission.

[Oh, is his nephew also outstanding? ]

[What's so great about him? His nephew is just a fool and can't do anything. Since this is just a simple and important task, he wants his nephew to go.

You should know that after completing this task, there will be an opportunity for promotion.

This way, he could have his men promoted to important positions, helping him to bring down Hao Tian and become the division commander himself.

[Well, wherever there are humans, there are rivers and lakes.]

Hao Tian's eyes darkened when he heard this, and he clenched his hands under the table. He looked at Captain Li with an unclear expression.

Huang Zhong and Captain Li were unaware of this and were still nagging Hao Tian to replace Sheng Zeyan.

After pondering for a while, Hao Tian glanced at Sheng Zeyan. When he saw Sheng Zeyan nodded to him imperceptibly, he knew that Sheng Zeyan understood what he meant.

Hao Tian nodded in pretense of appreciating their words.

"Well, Captain Huang, you are right. Your concerns are not unreasonable. How about this? We can send two more capable assistants to go with us so that we can have someone to look after us. What do you think?

As for who to send, you two can each choose one! What do you think? "

Captain Huang wanted to say something, but he shut up after seeing Hao Tian's eyes.

After the meal, Bai Youyou said to Sheng Zeyan worriedly, "Husband, you must be careful."

Sheng Zeyan patted her head and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely come back safely."

On the day of departure, many soldiers from the army came to see us off.

After Shengzeyan embarked on the journey, Bai Youyou anxiously waited for news every day.

Meanwhile, Sheng Zeyan led the team forward cautiously, always on the lookout for any mischief Huang Zhong's men might be making.

Sure enough, soon after entering the mission area, they encountered a series of inexplicable attacks. Sheng Zeyan relied on his outstanding military skills to resolve crises time and time again, and successfully uncovered the saboteurs hidden in the team.

Meanwhile, Hao Tian was also busy in the rear. Xiao Chen presented the evidence he had found about Huang Zhong and Captain Li.

While they were not paying attention, Hao Tian took quick action and captured the spy Huang Zhong and the captain Li with bad intentions in one fell swoop.

As the mission neared its end, Sheng Zeyan finally lived up to everyone's expectations and successfully completed the mission.

When he returned triumphantly, the entire army cheered. When Bai Youyou saw Sheng Zeyan, who was unharmed, tears welled up in her eyes and she ran into his arms.

Sheng Zeyan hugged her tightly and whispered, "I said I would come back safely."

After this incident, Sheng Zeyan's chance of promotion, which was originally expected to wait a year, was recognized by the leaders of the General Military Region for his outstanding performance and he was promoted to the deputy regimental level as an exception.

Of course, these things happened within the next month.
