His predecessor failed

Chapter 113 Urgent Mission

I can't say anything more specific. The young soldier was from the guard company. He memorized the confidentiality manual well and didn't say anything he shouldn't have said. Even when Su Zhuzhu kept asking him, he didn't say anything. He just comforted Su Zhuzhu not to worry and that he would be back after completing the mission.

When asked when the mission would end, the little soldier stopped talking again.

Su Zhuzhu was discouraged. Forget it. There was no need to embarrass others. It was something that could not be said in the first place.

"I know the rules don't allow me to talk about it, and I can't ask He Qiaojin if he's coming back today, but I can at least ask if I need to bring him some change of clothes!"

The little soldier nodded.

"Then please pack the clothes for me, sister-in-law. I will take them back to the army. If Deputy Commander He can come back today, he will bring them back himself. If he can't come back, I will ask the superiors to hand them over. Don't worry, sister-in-law!"

Seeing that she could not get any information, Su Zhuzhu gave up. She asked the young soldier to sit down and drink some water, and she went into the bedroom to pack clothes for He Qiaojin.

He quickly packed out two sets of clothes and took out a lot of food of unknown origin from the space and stuffed it in, hoping that He Qiaojin would not go hungry this time.

He handed the bag to the young soldier, who took it, saluted Su Zhuzhu, then turned and left.

Su Zhuzhu let out a long sigh and sat lazily on the chair, feeling helpless.

What is going on? Nothing has been done yet and the person is gone!

Oh, it’s not like nothing happened and no one is involved. He Qiaojin did it to her. Hey, what a big loss!

They haven't even gotten their marriage certificate, haven't even started tidying up the yard, and the man hasn't even spent a few days with her before he went out on another mission.

Moreover, the return date is uncertain. Su Zhuzhu is considering whether to return to the Red Star Brigade early. If He Qiaojin's mission is going to take two or three months, she can't just wait here foolishly for two months. The Red Star Brigade still has a lot of things waiting for her!

I was looking forward to getting the marriage certificate, but now I feel really depressed and can't muster the energy to do anything.

After much thought, Su Zhuzhu decided to wait and see for three days. If He Qiaojin didn't come back in three days, she would go and ask Captain Qiao. If even Captain Qiao didn't know when He Qiaojin would return, Su Zhuzhu would plan to return to the Red Star Brigade first.

Su Zhuzhu was not the type of person who would complain about herself. She couldn't focus all her attention on He Qiaojin or any other man. After walking around the room, she picked up the scissors and went out.

They didn't walk far. There was a small pond a few meters in front of the courtyard gate. There were some willow trees planted next to the pond. Su Zhuzhu picked up the scissors and cut a handful of grass with a few clicks.

When I got home, I threw the withering magnolia branches in the vase into the trash can, changed the water, and trimmed the willow branches and inserted them in the vase.

"Hmm! As expected, adding some green to the house instantly makes me feel better!"

Su Zhuzhu was too lazy to worry about He Qiaojin's mission. Even if she thought about it more, she had no ability to change anything. She could only make herself happier and more valuable under the existing conditions.

So Su Zhuzhu started going to the logistics department whenever she had time, to understand everyone's taste needs, seek the soldiers' opinions, and even run errands for them for free when the logistics department was too busy, just to make her presence felt.

That night, He Qiaojin did not come back as expected, and did not bring any message with him.

Su Zhuzhu closed the gate in disappointment. She had no appetite that day and just ate a few bites of dinner.

Although it has only been a few days, Su Zhuzhu seems to have gotten used to He Qiaojin sleeping next to her at night. Today, He Qiaojin didn't come back, and she tossed and turned in bed like a pancake, but just couldn't fall asleep.

I really wasn't feeling sleepy, so I simply got up, put on my bathrobe, made myself a cup of tea, and went into the study.

Since I'm busy and not sleepy, I'll make good use of this time so that I don't waste time.

In this way, the light in the study was not turned off all night, and Su Zhuzhu sat at the desk all the time to rush to finish the design draft. When she was tired of drawing, she made a cost budget, or flipped through the high school textbooks to relax.

Before she knew it, the morning light was already breaking outside. Su Zhuzhu looked up suddenly and realized that she had been sitting in the study all night, busy without noticing. Now she was finally feeling sleepy. She tidied up the manuscripts and books on the desk, stood up, stretched herself, exhaled a breath, and walked towards the bedroom while turning her neck.

Su Zhuzhu is not obsessed with when He Qiaojin will come back. She estimates that this mission is so urgent that it will not be quick, so she plans to have a good sleep first, and go to Captain Qiao's house at night to inquire about the situation. If it takes a long time and there is no big risk on He Qiaojin's side, Su Zhuzhu plans to go back to the Red Star Brigade first. After all, she has a lot of things on hand, and the most important thing is that she has to hurry up and learn Chinese medicine from Dr. Peng as much as possible before going to college. Even if she learns a little more, it will be good. There are really too many things to do, and she doesn't have much time to be sad. She is not the kind of woman who can't live without a man, and one night is enough to digest it.

Anyway, He Qiaojin was not at home, and Su Zhuzhu didn't have many acquaintances in the staff quarters, so she went straight back to the bedroom, pulled the curtains tight, climbed onto the bed, wrapped herself in the soft and comfortable quilt, closed her eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.

So it’s all lies when you say you’re not sleepy. It’s just that there’s something on your mind that you haven’t figured out for the moment so you’re not sleepy. Once you’ve figured it out or understood it, that’s it. Once you relax, you can’t help but yawning.

At first, Su Zhuzhu was also struggling whether to go back to the space to rest. Later, she thought that this was a family compound after all, and the people coming and going and living around were all soldiers and their families, so the vigilance was quite strong. Moreover, He Qiaojin's return date was uncertain. If he came back suddenly, Su Zhuzhu would have a headache when she thought about explaining to He Qiaojin. So it was better to be honest in a place like the army. At most, she could smuggle some delicious food out when no one was paying attention, and there was no need to get into other troubles.

She slept soundly, probably because Su Zhuzhu had no habit of staying up late before, but now she suddenly stayed up all night, so her sleep quality was very high and she fell asleep as soon as she closed her eyelids.

I slept soundly, and the sun outside gradually rose and set.

Su Zhuzhu slept too long. When she woke up, it was already dusk. Su Zhuzhu, who had slept for a whole day, was still confused when she woke up. Looking at the sky outside the curtains, she almost thought it was early morning. After a long while, she finally remembered that she had slept for a whole day.

It was getting late, so Su Zhuzhu quickly got up, changed her clothes, and simply cooked a bowl of noodles and ate something else. She still remembered that she had to go to Captain Qiao to inquire about the situation today.
