Zhou Xiaobai hurriedly grabbed Luo Yun's hand, worried, "Is Yuemin okay?"

"It should be fine, I don't know the details."

Zhou Xiaobai was really angry,

"I'm going to find Yuemin, why did you lie to me?" He went to take the small bag beside the bed.

"Oh, don't go!" Luo Yun said:

"Zhong Yuemin and the others have been called to the Public Security Bureau. Where can you find him?"

"Then I have to go. Nothing can happen to Yuemin. I'm going to find my dad."

"Alright, alright, take a break!"

Luo Yun said:

"I just ran into Zhang Haiyang and a few others. They just came back from the police station and told me that Yuemin and the others are back too. Nothing's wrong, but the police might come looking for them later. They were arresting people everywhere this afternoon, not just Yuemin and Yuan Jun. I don't think it's a big deal."

Zhou Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, then sat back in his chair without saying a word. Luo Yun comforted him.

"I'll go with you tomorrow, and we'll give these restless guys a good scolding."

Zhou Xiaobai said coldly:

"I won't go. It would be best if I died. I won't go, this deceiving bastard..."

As he spoke, his eyes turned red and tears welled up in his eyes.

Three days later, in the ward, Li Yuanchao was leaning against the head of the bed with bandages on his thighs and head. He had not eaten much for three days and only had some rice porridge. He looked haggard and listless, with messy hair and untidy beard. He looked like he had aged more than ten years. He always paid attention to his image, but now he didn't care at all.

The physical injury was secondary, and the main thing was that his spirit was crushed. His status and reputation, which he was proud of,

Gone!

"Yuan Chao, please eat something. You haven't eaten properly for three days. Don't scare Mom."

Shen Lan had a worried look on her face. Seeing her son like this, she felt even more distressed.

"What do you want to eat for lunch? Mom will make it for you."

"Mom, I'm not hungry!"

Li Yuanchao replied mechanically, "Please leave me alone for a while."

"You kid..."

At this time, Li Hailong came in, followed by a secretary. Shen Lan hurriedly stood up.

"Hailong, please try to persuade your son. He doesn't eat properly and doesn't listen to the doctor. How can this be allowed? I'm so worried."

Li Hailong came to the bedside and saw his son's decadent state. He was so angry that he asked his secretary to leave first.

"You bastard, you did all this shit yourself and left this mess behind, and now I have to clean up your mess. Do you think you're right? If you don't want treatment, then get the hell out of here. You're not eating well, and you're also saving on rations."

Li Yuanchao remained silent.

"Hailong, what are you doing?" Shen Lan complained.

"Didn't you see that my son was injured? How can you blame our aid to North Korea for this?"

"You, a loving mother often spoils her child. I think you are the one who spoiled him."

"What are you talking about?" Shen Lan was also angry.

"Look at Yuan Chao, his legs and head are covered with wounds, and as a father, you don't feel sorry for him at all. He is your own flesh and blood, and we only have this one son."

Li Hailong sighed, sat down on the chair, and said:

"Don't enlist this year. Rest at home for a year and then enlist next year."

"Dad, why?" Li Yuanchao spoke.

“Why do you say that?”

Li Hailong suppressed his anger.

"You always brag about having lots of friends and being loyal, but I don't think that's bullshit. The police have been investigating, and all the confessions they've collected point to you and that Du Weidong, saying you two were in cahoots with each other. Do you know how many connections I had to pull together to get rid of this mess? You're lucky you didn't go to jail, and you were even thinking about joining the army."

Li Yuanchao said angrily:

"Dad, I'm close to Du Weidong, but I have no idea what he did behind the scenes. Why are the police slandering me? I refuse to accept it."

"It's not the police who are slandering you. It's just that the public opinion is spreading rumors. Du Weidong is dead, and there's no evidence. Of course, all the blame is pointing at you. A foreigner is dead, and the higher-ups are watching. What can you ask me to do?"

Although Li Yuanchao was unwilling, he had no choice but to admit defeat.

"Dad, what about Zhong Yuemin? Can he still serve in the army?"

"Why are you worrying about other people's affairs when you can just take care of yourself?"

Li Yuanchao understood and yelled hysterically,

"Dad, I admit I was slandered, I admit I can't be a soldier, but how come that bastard Zhong Yuemin is fine? He stabbed me in the leg. If it weren't for him, things wouldn't have gotten out of control that day. And Zhou Xiaobai was also taken away by that bastard. I don't accept it, I don't accept it..."

"Sea Dragon!"

Shen Lan was also angry.

"I'm on Yuan Chao's side on this matter. This Zhong Yuemin is too outrageous, and that Xiao Bai... I really don't know what he's thinking. What's wrong with my Yuan Chao? He's so servile and fawning over her, and he doesn't even give her a good face. Is my Li family not worthy of their Zhou family?

My son Aon-jo can't enlist this year, and neither can Zhong Yuemin!

Li Hailong didn't say anything. He stayed in the ward for about half an hour, left the hospital, and returned to the car parked at the hospital gate. He lit a cigarette for himself. The driver saw that the leader had a gloomy face and must be in a bad mood. He didn't say anything. After half a cigarette, he said to the secretary in the passenger seat:

"Xiao Zhang, find this Zhong Yuemin's enlistment information."

The secretary knew what was going on when he heard this, and turned around and replied carefully,

"Commander, Deputy Commander Zhou is handling Zhong Yuemin's enlistment procedures. He's also personally under the care of the head of the Shenyang Military Region. If we intervene rashly, there might be consequences..."

"do it!"

Li Hailong flicked the cigarette out of the car window and interrupted coldly.

"it is good!"

"Xiao Liu, go to the old chief's compound."

"Hey, good!"

The driver, Xiao Liu, was shocked. He remembered that the last time he went to the old leader's place was when his own leader was beaten and in danger. He went there again today. Although he didn't know what happened, he knew that this Zhong Yuemin would definitely not end well.

At night, the Zhou family of three were having dinner. Zhou Xiaobai's elder and second brothers had returned to the army, and the house became a little deserted again. Chen Yijun saw his daughter holding chopsticks, not eating the rice or picking up the dishes, just standing there in a daze.

"Xiaobai, what's wrong with you these past few days? You seem so absent-minded. Are you feeling well?"

Zhou Xiaobai shook his head, "Mom, I'm fine."

"It's okay, you see your face is thinner," Chen Yijun sighed.

"Did you have a fight with Yuemin?"

It's strange that this child hasn't gone out for three days. Ever since he started dating Zhong Yuemin, he has basically never been home.

"Mom, no, don't ask."

At this time, the phone rang and Chen Yijun went to answer it.

"Ah, it's Deputy Commander Li?! Yes, yes, good... Please wait a moment, I'll ask my old Zhou to pick you up."

"Zhennan, Deputy Commander Li, come and pick him up!"

Zhou Zhennan went over to pick up the phone, chatted for a few words, then frowned.

"Hailong, let's not worry about the child. If you interfere with it, you'll be lowering your status."

"Zhennan, I only have this one son. Now I am not in any other identity, just as a father, I want to vent my anger for my son. Please don't get involved in this matter, so as not to hurt the harmony between our two families. What do you think?"

"Lao Li, this is not my business. Shenyang..."

"Someone will definitely go and explain to the commander-in-chief, so you don't have to worry about it."

Zhou Zhennan heard that the other party was determined.

"Isn't this inappropriate? Being a soldier is no joke!"

"Just let me have a little fun, that's all!

The other end hung up.
