After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Chapter 809 Zhu Heng, you should know when to stop and line up to listen to your master's instructions.
"Mingxin, who has arrived?"

Ye Mingxin had just turned around and called out "Master" when Zhu Heng rushed over and hugged her tightly.

“Mingxin, you…” Zhu Heng wanted to ask what was going on with this unchanging appearance, but she swallowed the words back. “It’s nothing, it’s nothing, it’s good that you’re back.”

Li Xingchuan watched helplessly as Zhu Heng hugged his wife. He initially wanted to hold back because the man was too excited, but when he saw Zhu Heng reach out and touch his wife's face and try to kiss her, he couldn't resist any longer.

unacceptable!

"Zhu Heng, you should know when to stop!"

Yuan Zheng heard the commotion outside, got up and went out to take a look. She just frowned and didn't say anything. Zhu Heng and Li Xingchuan, who came into her sight, both quieted down.

Li Xingchuan immediately bowed and said, "Greetings, Master."

Out of respect for his apprentice, Yuan Zheng reluctantly nodded and gave a soft "hmm".

In a handwritten letter she had received earlier, Zhu Heng learned that the second thing her best friend did after returning home and reuniting with her family was to become a disciple of her mentor from more than 20 years ago.

Now he knew who the white-haired old lady was, and he quickly pulled his husband, who had come closer, to bow as well: "Master, I am Mingxin's best friend, and this is my boyfriend."

Yuan Zheng looked over and nodded, his expression softening somewhat. He then instructed, "Go and take Qiaoqiao home first, then come back and find me."

After saying that, he closed the door, thus blocking the prying eyes of the other members of the group.

"Let's go."

Li Xingchuan touched his nose, glanced at the little girl being led by his wife's hand, and subtly moved to the other side of his wife, saying, "Wife."

When he met his wife's indifferent gaze, he quickly and obediently changed his address to "Mingxin".

"You still haven't said how you found this place."

Li Xingchuan patted his gear and said, "Didn't you tell me to come out and do some field research? I even sent you a message to let you know."

"And then you ended up here?" Ye Mingxin smiled at him, then turned to meet the gazes of Zhu Heng and Que Bingchen. "And you two?"

"We were just out for a stroll with Mr. Li, no, Comrade Li, since we didn't have anything else to do. We didn't expect your medical team to be here too!"

"That's quite a coincidence."

"Yeah, haha, I think so too."

Ye Mingxin simply couldn't bear to look.

"Mingxin, is this the patient you came to see today?" Zhu Heng quietly leaned closer, subtly pointing to the little girl in front of her, and said in a low voice, "I've looked her over from all angles, and she seems quite healthy!"

"I really can't reveal that," Ye Mingxin shook her head at Zhu Heng, "Let's talk about it when we get back."

"it is good."

Zhu Heng smiled and nodded, then stared at the girl named Qiaoqiao for a few more moments before falling behind and turning to meet Que Bingchen's gaze.

The couple exchanged glances directly.

What's your opinion?

Que Bingchen first nodded, then shook his head.

Zhu Heng held up one hand.

Just as she thought.

At first glance, this girl named Qiaoqiao does seem somewhat similar to Lin Shuangshuang, but there's also a sense of difference.

When they arrived at Qiaoqiao's house, they were greeted by Qiaoqiao's parents.

After Ye Mingxin handed Qiaoqiao over to her parents, Li Xingchuan stared at the three of them standing together for a long time.

Zhu Heng and Que Bingchen were in similar situations. However, neither of them said anything.

On the way back to the clinic, Li Xingchuan couldn't help but ask, "Were those two the biological parents of that girl, Qiaoqiao?"

Ye Mingxin nodded.

"But their bone structure... I can't see any similarities."

Ye Mingxin already knew this beforehand.

One of the team leaders has a family secret of bone reading. He read Qiaoqiao's bones all afternoon and has been pondering the matter in his room ever since.

Back at the clinic, Ye Mingxin saw that her master was not in the consultation room, so she took the three of them directly to her and her master's room.

Knock on the door when you get there, and say, "Master, we're back."

"The door is not closed, come in."

As soon as he entered the room, Li Xingchuan couldn't help but frown.

He had guessed yesterday that his wife's accommodations wouldn't be very good, but he didn't expect them to be this bad.

There were two single beds with thin mattresses, a desk in the middle, and two peeling stools.

Most of the plaster on the walls had peeled off, and the ground was still rammed earth!

Yuan Zheng, wearing glasses, sat on one of the benches. The people who came in... dared not sit there!
Stand still, everyone!

"Tell me, how did the three of you find us?"

The questions were exactly the same, and even the old lady's attitude was quite gentle.

But this time, the three people who were questioned didn't dare to lie at all and obediently told the truth.

I overheard a conversation at the next table while staying at a farmhouse, then deduced what I was talking about, and finally navigated all the way here to verify it.

However, Zhu Heng and Que Bingchen still concealed their suspicions about Qiaoqiao.

Otherwise, Lin Shuangshuang and the corpse-laying worms would have to vomit them out right under the old lady's nose.

Ye Mingxin was relieved to find that the three of them hadn't tried to bluff this time, and looked at her master, "Master..."

“Mingxin, you don’t need to say anything more. I believe you didn’t reveal the address, and I also believe what the three of them just said is true.” Yuan Zheng raised his hand to stop him, then looked at Li Xingchuan. “I can understand that you don’t want to be separated from Mingxin. And you,” he said, then looked at Zhu Heng, “I understand your feelings of wanting to see your good friend as soon as possible. But the fewer people who know about the patient we are currently studying, the better. If the families of other team members do the same, how can we continue our work?”

The four of them obediently lowered their heads and listened to the reprimand, not daring to breathe too loudly.

"I won't pursue this matter this time. The three of you will sign a confidentiality agreement later, promising not to disclose what you saw and heard in Changhe Village. If you accidentally leak it after signing, I won't let you off easily for Mingxin's sake. I will definitely hold you accountable. It's getting late now, so stay here for the night and leave first thing tomorrow morning."

The four people went in with their heads down, and came out with their heads down again.

They looked at each other in the simple courtyard bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, and couldn't help but smile.

I just didn't dare to laugh out loud.

"Let's go, I'll take you to sign the confidentiality agreement first. After that, let's see which family nearby has prepared dinner, and we can borrow their kitchen..."

Zhu Heng silently raised her hand, meeting her friend's gaze. "Well, Ah Chen and I were originally planning to go for a walk in the nearby mountains, and considering we might not be able to get back tonight, we prepared some ingredients and tools so we can cook for ourselves!"

"That's true. Camping and eating in the mountains is quite common for the two of you."

Their first meeting was in the mountains, wasn't it?

Zhu Heng thought of this too and couldn't help but smile, then quickly covered her mouth. "When I first met you in the mountains, I thought I had encountered a mountain spirit." Looking at her friend's current appearance, she said, "You look exactly the same to me!"

As long as you don't look at that guy surnamed Li next to you!
