Arranged marriage, love blossoms; a fiercely devoted soldier dotes on her alone.

Qin Huanhuan: "Hua Ying, Shen Jun and Xiao Zhan have gone out on business. Don't go back tonight."

Hua Ying looked up at the opulent villa and asked, "Is this appropriate?"

Qin Huanhuan laughed and said, "What's inappropriate about it? You're my best friend. There are plenty of guest rooms in the house. I'll have the maid prepare a room for you to stay in, and we can talk all night long."

"By the way, the villa next door is already renovated and ready to move in. You and Shen Jun can discuss it and then pick a good day to move in."

Hua Ying's face, flushed red from the alcohol, broke into a wide smile as she said, "Is it really going to be living in a big villa? I can hardly believe such a good thing is happening to me."

Qin Huanhuan: "Of course, is that even a lie? Xiao Zhan specially reserved more than a dozen villas for these brothers to live in."

Hua Ying held up her phone and said to Qin Huanhuan, "Huanhuan, I told my parents about the villa. My mom talked to me all night. She said she wanted to buy me a house in Beijing, and that this house would be my home. No matter what, having my own house would give me peace of mind and confidence. My mom also said that Shen Jun is good to you. I know that, but when it comes to life, a woman always needs to leave herself some room for maneuver."

Qin Huanhuan's eyes brightened as she said, "Hua Ying, I think your mother is absolutely right. Parents always worry about their children being mistreated. Having your own house means that at worst, you won't end up homeless; at least you'll have a place to live."

Thinking of her parents' selfless love for her, Hua Ying's eyes welled up with tears as she said, "My mother's words were very ordinary, but they were like a fine needle gently pricking the softest spot in my heart. I truly understand the meaning of the saying 'A mother worries when her son travels a thousand miles.'"

Qin Huanhuan also sighed, "Yes, parents always think of their children first. Hua Ying, I really envy you. You have parents who love you, care for you, and are willing to support you."

"It's getting late, let's go back to our room and talk."

Hua Ying nodded: "Okay, sure!"

at the same time,

Inside the minivan

Xiao Zhan said, "Director Xia, Qi Jingtian came to see me personally just now. Do you know why?"

Xia Keke was eating Wushan grilled fish when she heard this and almost choked on a fish bone.

"Cough cough cough."

She coughed several times, her pretty face turning bright red, before finally spitting out a fishbone and saying, "You mean Qi Jingtian from the Qi family?"

Xiao Zhan asked curiously, "Is there anyone else named Qi Jingtian?"

Xia Keke: "What did she come to see you about?"

Xiao Zhan: "Qi Jingtian told me that someone asked her to pull strings to see Qin Hanwen."

Xia Keke blinked and said, "She wouldn't say it's Qin Huanhuan, would she? Right now, only Qin Huanhuan is going to see Qin Hanwen. Oh my god, could it be that Liu Shiyuan asked Qi Jingtian to pull strings?"

Xiao Zhan: "I still don't understand, but no matter who asked Qi Jingtian to pull strings, why would Qi Jingtian personally come to tell me? Don't you find that strange?"

Xia Keke thought for a moment and said, "Is it possible that Qi Jingtian is trying to cover something up?"

Xiao Zhan blinked and said, "You mean she did this on purpose, to mislead us and secretly carry out her plan?"

Xia Keke: "It's highly likely. Don't forget, Liu Shiyuan's other half of the pieces hasn't shown up yet. Judging from the half of the pieces we destroyed, there are probably figures like Chen Hongwei, Jueyuan, and Wang Guoyong among them."

Xiao Zhan: "That makes sense."

"squeak."

At this moment, the van stopped.

Driver: "Report, we've arrived."

Xia Keke took out two pistols and several magazines from a bag under the car seat and handed them to Xiao Zhan, saying, "You and Shen Jun each take one pistol and two magazines, just in case."

Xiao Zhan took the pistol, handed one to Shen Jun, and said, "Director Xia meant well, take this as a spare."

Shen Jun took the pistol and skillfully inspected it while saying, "Thank you, Director Xia, you're always so meticulous."

Xia Keke pushed open the car door and got out.

Xiao Zhan then jumped out of the car.

At this moment, Zhang Guoqiang crouched down and ran over from the darkness, whispering, "Director Xia, Young Master Xiao, after the mysterious person entered Yonghe Temple, the intelligence department's drones have not been able to find any trace of him. We suspect that there is a secret passage inside Yonghe Temple."

Xia Keke looked at Xiao Zhan: "How about we disguise ourselves as worshippers and enter the Yonghe Temple?"

Xiao Zhan shook his head and said, "The higher-ups have given us strict orders not to touch Liu Shiyuan and Sanmu Dan now, otherwise I would have done it already."

Zhang Guoqiang: "What can we do? The worshippers are now lined up from the main hall onto the street. There are so many people that it's impossible to tell who's who."

Xiao Zhan thought for a moment and asked, "When did Liu Shiyuan return to Yonghe Temple?"

Xia Keke chimed in, "I know that. I monitored Liu Shiyuan's three cars the whole time using drones and Beidou satellites. But for some reason, Liu Shiyuan suddenly returned to Yonghe Temple midway and didn't go to the Tongzhou Garrison's residence at all. I guessed at the time that Liu Shiyuan might have realized he was being followed, so he canceled the trip and returned to Yonghe Temple."

Xiao Zhan raised an eyebrow and said, "So, Liu Shiyuan's knowledge that he was hiding in Yonghe Temple has been exposed and he is being monitored by us."

Xia Keke: "This is very likely. Although Liu Shiyuan has no power now, his hidden pawns are very capable. Perhaps one of his pawns is right next to us."

Xiao Zhan frowned and said, "If that's the case, continuing to monitor is pointless. Why don't we just remove all the personnel?"

Xia Keke's expression froze for a moment, then she said, "You mean outwardly relaxed but inwardly tense?"

Xiao Zhan nodded and said, "Qin Huanhuan will go to see Qin Hanwen tomorrow. Hopefully, she can get some valuable information."

"Beep beep beep".

Suddenly, Xiao Zhan's phone rang.

Xiao Zhan was taken aback for a moment when he saw the caller ID, then answered the phone with a slightly excited tone, "Hello, Captain, what can I do for you?"

A rough voice came from the other end of the phone: "You brat, can't I call you for no reason?"

Xiao Zhan: "Captain, that's not what I meant."

Wan Chongshan laughed heartily, "Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore. I'm calling you for two things. First, the headquarters commander asked me to send a special operations team to support you."

"Secondly, military intelligence intercepted a secret intelligence report from abroad. A five-man 'human butchering squad' from India has secretly infiltrated our country and has already reached the outskirts of Beijing. In addition to the 'human butchering squad,' a mercenary group has also secretly infiltrated Beijing. The number of members is unknown. An investigation revealed that the mastermind behind this mercenary group is Liu Shiyuan, and the leader of the mercenary group is Qin Hanwen."

Xiao Zhan asked in surprise, "What exactly is Qin Hanwen trying to do?"

Wan Chongshan: "We'll team up with the 'Butcher Squad' to deal with you."

Xiao Zhan was immediately shocked.

But he calmly asked, "Captain, please give your instructions!"

Wan Chongshan: "According to military intelligence, the 'Butcher Squad' only recognizes Qin Hanwen, or more precisely, only the coded message in Qin Hanwen's possession. Therefore, Liu Shiyuan is anxious to obtain the coded message from Qin Hanwen and then make contact with the 'Butcher Squad.' Military intelligence indicates that your wife, Qin Huanhuan, is going to see Qin Hanwen tomorrow, so you did this and that..."

After listening, Xiao Zhan finally understood what Liu Shiyuan wanted to do and said, "Captain, I guarantee to complete the mission."
