After a cursory clean-up of the site, Huo Jingrui had the captured enemy agents’ hands tied behind their backs, strung together like a skewer of candied hawthorns. This made them easier to watch over. Turning to Qiao Wenyu, who was supporting Wei Zijia, he asked, "Do you need me to arrange for someone to look after you two?" Qiao Wenyu shook his head. "No need, I’ll carry her down the mountain myself." Standing by, Zheng Xuewen also spoke up, "He’s tired. I’ll take over for him." Qiao Wenyu shot his good friend a glare. "She’s my girlfriend; I’ll take care of her myself." Huo Jingrui, intending to teach Qiao Wenyu a lesson, gave him an inscrutable look and said, "Gather your things. Prepare to head down the mountain." The enemy agents walked in the middle, flanked by the soldiers and armed personnel on the mission. The large contingent then proceeded down the mountain. 「Hua’an Agricultural Reclamation Group」 Qiao Shaoguo had just hung up a call from Beijing and was wearily rubbing his temples. He now dreaded the sound of the phone ringing, as not a single piece of good news had come from the mountain in days. Well, it wasn’t entirely devoid of good news. At least he’d been notified that the Huo family’s youngest son was leading a team on a mission in the mountains. They would assist in searching for the three missing individuals. He dared not imagine the consequences if those three reckless brats truly didn’t make it back. Just as he rose to leave, someone entered. "Regimental Commander, Team Leader Song from the Security Division was carried back. His wife is raising hell in the medical office." Qiao Shaoguo anxiously asked, "What happened?" Xiaoli panted, "The search and rescue team was attacked by a wolf pack in the mountains, and Team Leader Song injured his calf." Qiao Shaoguo rushed out immediately. "Is the injury severe?" Xiaoli hurried after him. "Dr. Ji from the medical office says it’s not too serious, but it looks like he’ll need some time to recover." Updates are released by NovєlFіre.net Hearing this, Qiao Shaoguo finally felt some relief. "And what’s this about Ge Qiutang?" Xiaoli was at a loss for words. Team Leader Song must have had eight lifetimes of bad luck to marry her, he thought. She’s constantly stirring up trouble, and Team Leader Song has become the laughingstock of Hua’an Farm Reclamation. When Xiaoli didn’t answer for a moment, Qiao Shaoguo turned to look at him. "What are you thinking about? Didn’t you hear my question?" Xiaoli took a deep breath. "What else could it be? When she heard Team Leader Song was wounded by a wolf, she started blaming you, Regimental Commander, saying it’s all your fault for indulging your nephew, which led to this disaster. And that’s not all..." He found it genuinely difficult to say the rest. Qiao Shaoguo’s face had already darkened at the first part. Seeing Xiaoli still had more to say, a chill emanated from him. "What else?" Xiaoli cleared his throat. "She also accused Dr. Ji of having improper designs on Team Leader Song and was making a scene, insisting that someone else treat his wound." Hearing this, Qiao Shaoguo couldn’t help but feel sorry for Song Changxuan. He had been on the verge of marrying Dr. Ji when, out of nowhere, Ge Qiutang had shown up. If that woman had been a good person and lived peacefully after marrying, that would have been one thing. But she was a relentless troublemaker, disrupting the Song family’s peace to such an extent that they were forced to divide the household. Bringing her to the Agricultural Reclamation Group hadn’t made her behave either. She did nothing but stir up trouble and spread gossip, annoying everyone she encountered. When he arrived, Ge Qiutang was pointing her finger and yelling, "Ji Rongjia, you shameless hussy! You know he’s married, yet you still try to get close to him! What are your intentions?" His face filled with anger, Qiao Shaoguo snapped, "Ge Qiutang, what do you think you’re doing?"
