Li Wanqing frowned. Cheng Baichuan knew she was busy, so why would he suddenly come looking for her?

"Go quickly, they must have something important to tell you at this time," Sister Liu urged. "Anyway, we've already discussed everything that needed to be discussed."

Li Wanqing thanked Sister Liu, then packed her things and hurried out.

When Li Wanqing arrived at the entrance, Cheng Baichuan was standing straight at the entrance of the cultural troupe.

Her striking figure, as always, attracted a lot of attention.

However, his aloof expression still deterred people from approaching him.

Upon seeing Li Wanqing emerge, Cheng Baichuan strode forward to greet her.

Before Li Wanqing could even ask, he whispered, "Let's talk about it outside."

Li Wanqing's eyes remained unchanged as she nodded slightly, then followed Cheng Baichuan out of the cultural troupe.

After walking a little further away, Li Wanqing couldn't help but ask curiously, "What happened?"

Cheng Baichuan looked around and then whispered, "Your father has arrived at the military region."

Li Wanqing was still a little confused. Didn't they say last night that it would be a few days later?

This collapse was... too sudden!

"The military region secretly escorted them over the night, and they were secretly settled as soon as they arrived at the military region," Cheng Baichuan explained.

"The commander's bodyguard just came to inform me that your father wants to see us."

Li Wanqing couldn't understand it. The military region had been mobilized, and her scumbag father was safe. Why did he insist on seeing her?

"Is it absolutely necessary to go?" Li Wanqing asked reluctantly.

Cheng Baichuan nodded. "We absolutely have to go. He hasn't handed over the technical data yet."

Li Wanqing didn't want to go from the bottom of her heart. Neither the original owner nor she wanted to have anything to do with her scumbag father.

But now they've practically forced her to go; she has no choice!

No matter how unwilling Li Wanqing was, she still had to make this trip.

To capture Qin Qianqian, it will most likely require the cooperation of this scumbag father.

In the military region's interrogation room, Li Zhangqing sat in a chair, looking weary, clutching a water glass tightly in his hand.

It seemed that only the warmth emanating from the water glass could bring him a sense of security.

"Has my daughter arrived?" Li Zhangqing asked countless times.

The guards tried to comfort him again and again, but to little avail.

So when the guards saw Cheng Baichuan bring Li Wanqing, they were so moved that they almost burst into tears.

"Battalion Commander Cheng, you've finally arrived."

If it had been any later, he felt Li Zhangqing would have collapsed.

Li Wanqing frowned. What exactly was Li Zhangqing up to?

Cheng Baichuan led Li Wanqing into the interrogation room. Li Zhangqing glanced at Cheng Baichuan first, then his eyes instantly turned to Li Wanqing.

"Wanqing!" Li Zhangqing cried out, tears streaming down his face. "You have to save your father!"

Li Zhangqing tried to take Li Wanqing's hand, but Li Wanqing dodged him.

"Just say what you have to say. Given our relationship, I can't imagine why you'd contact me," Li Wanqing said bluntly.

Li Zhangqing was slightly taken aback, then looked bitter. "Are you still angry with your father?"

"Dad had no choice!"

“Wanhua was in poor health. Sending her to the countryside back then was practically watching her die!”

Li Wanqing waited for him with hatred, "So you just watched me die?"

If she hadn't transmigrated, the original owner of this body would indeed be dead.

Li Zhangqing choked. Although his daughter was not easy to communicate with before, she was never as troublesome as she is now.

“Wanqing, you’ve misunderstood your father. Your father just…” Li Zhangqing racked his brains but couldn’t come up with a reasonable explanation.

Li Wanqing curled her lips into a sneer and said sarcastically, "You're just biased. I'm used to it."

"I just don't understand, why did you come looking for me after your accident?"

Li Zhangqing's eyes flickered slightly. "I...I just missed you."

Li Wanqing said with a mocking smile, "Are you trying to drag me down with you?"

Knowing how dangerous his situation was, he didn't try to stay away from her; instead, he led the danger toward her.

Having such a biological father is truly a blessing for the original owner!

Li Zhangqing quickly shook his head, "No, believe me, I really don't mean it that way."

"So what do you think?" Li Wanqing asked sternly.

Li Zhangqing's eyes flickered. "I just wanted to find you and escape with you."

She's his daughter, after all, and he doesn't want her to be implicated because of him.

Li Wanqing rolled her eyes speechlessly. When things are going well, they're heartless and ungrateful, but when trouble comes... do they suddenly have a change of heart?

"Tell me, how do you want me to save you?" Li Wanqing was too lazy to beat around the bush with him. She wanted to hear what kind of nonsense this scumbag father could come up with this time.

Li Wanqing's attitude was firm, and Li Zhangqing knew that trying to appeal to emotions would be useless, so he had no choice but to tell the truth.

"I just want you and your man to guarantee my personal safety. Even if I hand over the research data, all the credit should go to me."

Li Wanqing's eyes widened. "Why don't you just cooperate with the people who arrested you?"

He's just providing research data; there's a whole host of feasibility tests to be done afterward.

They're already trying to take credit for things that haven't even started yet!

Li Zhangqing choked; he wasn't stupid.

Not to mention that cooperating with those people would earn him the reputation of a traitor, he might even lose his life.

“Wanqing, your man is an officer anyway, this is just a matter of nodding, there’s no need to talk to your father like that.”

"You knew I married a military officer, so you came to find me?" Li Wanqing's eyes narrowed slightly, sensing something unusual.

The original owner never mentioned her marriage to her family.

Li Zhangqing nodded. "Do you think I wouldn't know just because you didn't tell me?"

“Your aunt has a friend in Shou County who happens to know someone in the Renxing Brigade.”

Li Wanqing looked shocked, her eyes involuntarily turning to Cheng Baichuan.

Cheng Baichuan's eyes were also grave; he never imagined that his wife had once lived such a miserable life.

Li Wanqing looked at Li Zhangqing with a gloomy expression, "Which friend?"

The original owner thought she was far away from home, but she didn't expect that there was still someone monitoring her.

Was the original owner's marriage into the Cheng family also part of that stepmother's scheme?

Li Zhangqing glanced at her sideways and said, "Just tell me whether you agree to my request or not."

Li Wanqing spat, "Say it or don't, I'm already married, it doesn't matter who it is anymore."

Moreover, she has already left the Renxing Brigade, so even if there really is such a person, they can't control her anymore.

Li Zhangqing choked, looked at Cheng Baichuan. His daughter was unreliable, so he could only rely on this son-in-law.

"Son-in-law, do you think we could report this to the leadership?"

Cheng Baichuan said calmly, "The military region will handle this according to regulations. If you continue to refuse to hand over the research data..."

Cheng Baichuan paused deliberately, and Li Zhangqing's heart jumped into his throat.
