Chapter 86

After dinner, Ji Mingjing packed Lu Yunxiang’s things and sent her to the train station.

They stood at the entrance of the station, their hands still intertwined, reluctant to part.

Ji Mingjing lowered his head, his eyes only on her.

“Remember to call me, every day, don’t save on phone calls, spend all the money on me.”

He already knew about Lu Yunxiang selling blueprints to Ge Huifen.

And the daily income was quite considerable.

Taking a small part to make a phone call was nothing.

Lu Yunxiang chuckled.

“Don’t worry, I miss you more than you miss me! I’ll call you every day, I’ll call you as soon as I get back to Fengcheng. I’ll call you when I go to Xiaxi Village, you hurry up and apply for your military transfer documents, and when you come, I’ll come to find you immediately.”

In public, Ji Mingjing could only hold her hand tightly.

He really wanted to hold her in his arms.

Kiss her fiercely.

But the times didn’t allow it, his uniform wouldn’t allow it.

Time quickly passed, and it was time for the train to leave.

Lu Yunxiang reluctantly said, “A Jing, I have to go.”

Ji Mingjing took a deep breath.

The intense reluctance threatened to consume him.

But he understood that separation was inevitable.

But separation was also temporary.

Even if she stayed in the capital, they would still face separation.

Moreover, he loved her and didn’t want to restrain her.

She could do anything she liked and wanted to do.

As long as it didn’t go against the country, against the nation, she was free.

Besides, Lu Yunxiang had a big secret.

She must have a mission.

For now, he could only be sure that she wouldn’t harm the country or the people.

Ji Mingjing said to Xiao Zhang beside him, “Xiao Zhang, I entrust my wife to you. You must protect her all the way.”

Xiao Zhang immediately saluted!

“Commander, guaranteed to complete the mission!”

Ji Mingjing reluctantly let go of her.

“Go.”

Lu Yunxiang’s eyes were wet.

“A Jing, I’ll be back soon.”

Ji Mingjing waved to her, “Yeah.”

His throat was sore, and he couldn’t speak complete sentences.

He could only watch as Lu Yunxiang walked towards the station with Xiao Zhang, following the crowd.

Until her figure disappeared from sight.

Ji Mingjing then looked away.

He also had to return to the army.

Farewell was for a better meeting.

This return to Fengcheng was much calmer than the thrilling trip to the capital.

Everything went smoothly along the way, the train wasn’t even delayed.

At two o’clock in the afternoon the next day, they arrived in Fengcheng on time.

She only brought one piece of luggage.

Xiao Zhang carried it for her.

As they walked out of the station, Zhou He was already waiting.

“Sister-in-law, over here.”

Lu Yunxiang and Xiao Zhang walked over, and Lu Yunxiang said, “Thank you, Brother Zhou.”

Zhou He smiled.

“Sister-in-law, you’re too polite.”

He naturally took Lu Yunxiang’s luggage from Xiao Zhang’s hand.

Xiao Zhang saluted Lu Yunxiang and Zhou He.

“Sister-in-law, since Director Zhou has already picked you up, I’ll go back first.”

Lu Yunxiang quickly took a package from her bag.

“Take this to eat on the road.”

It contained meat buns and sweets she had prepared, as well as an apple.

After all, Xiao Zhang had come a long way to see her off.

Xiao Zhang happily accepted it.

“Thank you, Sister-in-law!”

When faced with Lu Yunxiang’s food temptation, no one could resist, really.

You could tell from Zhou He’s envious look.

Xiao Zhang turned and went back into the station.

Her ticket back was already bought.  It was for six o’clock in the evening.  He only had to wait a few hours.

Lu Yunxiang waved goodbye to him, then left the station with Zhou He.

Passing by the supply and marketing cooperative, Lu Yunxiang said to Zhou He, “Brother Zhou, wait for me here.  I’m going to buy some things.”

Zhou He nodded.

“Okay.”

Lu Yunxiang went into the supply and marketing cooperative.  She planned to walk around and then get some things from the system store.

Ji Mingjing had already told her about the time she was almost tricked by Chen Chunping and Zhang Qing.  She was very touched.  He had been protecting her all this time without her knowing.

If she hadn’t been going back to Fengcheng, Ji Mingjing wouldn’t have told her this.  He told her so she could be wary of Chen Chunping and Zhang Qing.

There was a photo studio next to the supply and marketing cooperative.  As she reached the corner, she saw three people coming out of the photo studio.  She froze and instantly hid behind the wall.

Yang Qingxue was holding a photo.  Chen Chunping said beside her, “With this photo, when you go to Xiaoxi Village, Lu Ziqian’s brothers will definitely take care of you.”

Lu Yunxiang was standing not far behind them, in a good position.  She could see the photo in Yang Qingxue’s hand if she stretched her neck.

The photo showed Chen Chunping, Lu Shuangshuang, and Yang Qingxue.  All three were smiling brightly, like a family.

Lu Yunxiang’s blood ran cold.  She had vaguely guessed that Chen Chunping must have been involved in Lu Shuangshuang’s ability to deceive her uncle and uncle in her previous life.  But she thought that Chen Chunping had just accidentally let something slip, and Lu Shuangshuang, the cunning woman, had taken advantage of it.

She didn’t expect that Chen Chunping was one of the masterminds!  She had actually cooperated with Lu Shuangshuang and Yang Qingxue to take a photo as evidence!

Chen Chunping was even more ruthless than she imagined!

If that was the case, then don’t blame her for being merciless.

After the three of them left happily, Lu Yunxiang came out and met up with Zhou He.

“Brother Zhou, A Jing told me that you and he saved me once.  Thank you very much.”

Zhou He quickly waved his hand.

“Sister-in-law, you’re welcome.  It’s my duty.  Besides, it was all Lao Ji’s credit.  I just ran errands for him.  If you want to thank someone, thank Lao Ji!”

He didn’t dare take credit for that.  Let Ji Mingjing take the responsibility!

Lu Yunxiang smiled.

“To repay him, I’ve already married him!”

Zhou He quickly said, “Congratulations!”

Repaying a life-saving grace with marriage, how romantic!

“Thank you!”

Lu Yunxiang suddenly said, “Brother Zhou, can you help me check on Zhang Qing’s recent situation?”

Zhou He said, “I don’t know anything about his situation.  He’s been addicted to gambling recently and has been caught several times.”

Zhou He shook his head.  “Once you’re hooked on gambling, it’s dangerous.  You’re coming back soon.  I’ll send someone to protect you to make sure you’re not tricked before you go to the countryside.”

Lu Yunxiang was going to the countryside in three days.  He wouldn’t let anything happen to Lu Yunxiang under his watch.  Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to explain to Ji Mingjing.

Lu Yunxiang understood.  Zhang Qing had also been addicted to gambling in her previous life.  In fact, he had always had a gambling addiction.  He just pretended to be a gentleman because he was living a life that everyone envied with Chen Chunping.

Now his house had been confiscated, he had lost his job, and he had been arrested and had a criminal record.  Fengcheng was so small, the news had spread everywhere.  He simply didn’t care anymore!

Lu Yunxiang narrowed her eyes.

  Gambling was an abyss!
