Chapter 143 Discharge
As soon as she finished speaking, Wen Ci dragged her exhausted body home. After 48 hours in a hard seat, her buttocks were practically ruined. And she couldn't appear too relaxed when facing the middle-aged woman who was trying to abduct her.

I was tense the whole time and didn't dare to sleep too soundly at night.

The moment the door opened, Wen Ci saw Wen Yaozu holding a landline and making a phone call. She frowned and asked, "Who are you talking to on the phone?"

Upon hearing Wen Ci's voice, Wen Yaozu's face lit up with a smile. "Brother-in-law, my sister is back. You promised me you'd go home and put in a good word for me."

"Okay, let your sister answer the phone."

Wen Yaozu immediately stood up, stepped forward and took Wen Ci's hand, his tone ingratiating, "Sister, you're finally back. Your brother-in-law calls every day to check on you."

Wen Ci's furrowed brows gradually relaxed. She walked to the sofa and sat down. The soft sofa made her feel much more relaxed. Holding the microphone, she said calmly:

"Instead of resting and recovering in the hospital, you're calling me every day?"

"Uh……"

Huo Jingyuan on the other end of the phone froze. He was about to bring up the hospitalization issue with his wife when he heard her tone of concern and asked, "Was your journey alright?"

"generally."

"When will you come to the hospital?"

The man's tone was somewhat aggrieved when he said this.

Wen Ci blinked slightly, deliberately teasing him, "What am I doing at the hospital?"

"Come pick me up from the hospital. The higher-ups in the Northwest Military Region have instructed that I must obtain your permission before I can be discharged."

"tomorrow."

"Can't it be today?"

Wen Ci raised her hand to rub her temples and said earnestly, "Huo Jingyuan, I'm a little tired after I just got back, and I don't want to move anymore."

"It's okay, as long as you agree."

He didn't need Wen Ci to come pick him up personally. The hospital wasn't far from the Beijing Military Region, and he could get home in just over ten minutes. He said cheerfully, "As long as you agree to let me be discharged, I can come back later."

Wen Ci hesitated.

No matter what, Huo Jingyuan was a patient who allowed him to be discharged from the hospital alone.

She was worried.

"If all else fails, I'll have Xue Li come to the hospital to pick me up."

Wen Ci laughed in exasperation, "Do you really have to be discharged today?"

"Ah."

Finally, Wen Ci agreed to Huo Jingyuan's request.

She first used a landline to call the leaders of the Northwest Military Region, tentatively inquiring when Huo Jingyuan could return to the Northwest.

The leader said that Huo Jingyuan must be allowed to fully recover from his injury.

There's no rush to return to the Northwest Military Region.

After exchanging pleasantries, Wen Ci brought up the matter of taking Huo Jingyuan home to recuperate.

After completing the discharge procedures, it gradually got dark. Xue drove Huo Jingyuan to the hospital entrance and said, "Brother Huo, I have to go back to the Northwest tomorrow."

Huo Jingyuan reached out and patted Xue Li on the shoulder. "Thank you."

He had been saving his leave for next year, but his situation was unexpected. Xue Li was worried about his sister-in-law traveling back to Beijing alone, so he used his leave early.

Xue Li smiled and said, "We're brothers, why talk about such things?"

"Okay, I'll treat you to drinks when I get back to the Northwest."

Huo Jingyuan had just gotten out of the car when Yu Qing came out with her luggage, saying indifferently, "Commander Huo, I originally wanted to say goodbye to Aci before leaving, but she was too tired and fell asleep soon after getting home."

Huo Jingyuan asked, "Are you also going back to the Northwest?"

Yu Qing nodded: "The last train tonight."

I had already wasted several days of leave before even arriving in Beijing, and I would have to waste even more time going back. During my time in Beijing, I didn't have much vacation time left.

"Once we get to the Northwest, I'll call Wen Ci to let him know I'm safe."

Yu Qing nodded solemnly: "I will."
