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

"Haha, you're really carefree!"

Xiao Zhan said with a smile as he walked.

Based on his understanding of Xia Keke, if her future husband dared to cheat on her, Xia Keke, with her personality and methods, would absolutely make that man suffer a terrible fate...

As Xia Keke walked behind Xiao Zhan, she said, "Whether a man is big-hearted or not depends on the kind of man he is. If it is a man I truly like and love deeply, I will naturally be more tolerant, just like how you are with Qin Huanhuan."

Xiao Zhan: "Director Xia, tell me not to drag me into your business. We are the best partners and the best friends, so we don't make any comparisons between us."

Xia Keke said bitterly, "Alright then."

She originally wanted to steer the conversation towards Xiao Zhan and Qin Huanhuan, but Xiao Zhan cut her off immediately.

Xia Keke paused and then said, "To be honest, if the man I find is a womanizer who does something to betray me, I will choose to leave silently. I can only blame myself for being blind. By the way, there's a new term that's popular this year: 'silent breakup'."

Xiao Zhan asked curiously, "Silent severance? That sounds quite novel. Tell me, what does 'silent severance' mean?"

Xia Keke: "Silent severance" refers to a way for adults to quietly end interpersonal relationships without arguing or blocking each other, through a long period of cold treatment. It's more of a dignified farewell, emphasizing a silent distancing.

Xiao Zhan smirked and said, "This way is indeed dignified. If you misunderstand me, I won't explain. If you hurt me, I won't pester you. If we find our values ​​clash, I'll silently turn away. If I feel drained, I'll quietly distance myself. Hahaha, severing ties in silence is interesting."

Xia Keke: "Yes, in the adult world, there's no need to argue about right or wrong; quietly withdrawing is the answer."

"There's no need for us to tear each other apart or exchange words. Leaving quietly is the wisest choice."

Xiao Zhan laughed and said, "Hahaha, Xia Keke, you're thinking really far ahead. You don't even have a boyfriend yet, and you're already thinking about how to get along in the future. Actually, I think Zhang Guoqiang has always been deeply in love with you. Why don't you consider him? There's a saying that goes, 'It's better to find someone who loves you than someone you love.'"

Xia Keke rolled her eyes at Xiao Zhan and then said, "Oh my, Mr. Xiao, when did you become a matchmaker?"

Xiao Zhan said with a serious and earnest expression, "I may not be a matchmaker for other people, but I want to be involved in your life's most important event. If you need me to be your matchmaker, I'm more than willing."

Xia Keke: "Are you in such a hurry for me to get married?"

Xiao Zhan laughed and said, "Hahaha, Director Xia, they say a woman is in her prime at thirty. You're in your prime now. If you don't look for someone now, are you going to wait until the flowers have faded? You need to think about your family. You can't just think about yourself. Sometimes, people live for their family, friends, and even their enemies."

"I've heard about some things from your past. So many years have passed, it's time to forget, to let go of the knot in your heart, and to start a new life. Actually, if he were alive, he wouldn't want you to continue like this. People always have to look forward. You should learn from Su Zixing in this matter. If you should give up, then give up decisively. Because some things are destined not to belong to you, and forcing them won't help; it will only cause you trouble."

"Why!"

Xia Keke sighed and said, "People are most motivated when they fall to the bottom. At that time, I didn't want to think about anything and just focused on doing my job well. In fact, only I knew the bitterness in my heart. I relied on hatred and shame to support myself. No one was a straw. I thank myself a million times for saving myself."

"It takes experience to see others clearly during a low point in life, but it takes self-cultivation to understand yourself. The only thing that can save you is your own unwillingness to admit defeat. I also want to let go of the past and start anew, but deep down I have nowhere to rest."

"I know Zhang Guoqiang is sincere towards me, but I just don't feel anything for him. What am I supposed to do? Force myself to be wronged? I really can't do that. Rather than hurting someone else, I'd rather bear it all by myself."

"I explained it very clearly to Zhang Guoqiang, but he just wouldn't listen, so I had no choice but to remain silent."

Xiao Zhan: "Silence is a composed attitude, distancing is a conscious choice, not competing is a sign of inner strength, and not looking back is the final outcome. You don't need to dwell on the past, nor cling to past relationships. Guard your heart, move forward steadily, and that is the best way to live the rest of your life. I suggest you try dating Zhang Guoqiang for a while. If it's really not suitable, then make it clear and don't disturb each other's lives from now on."

"Why!"

Xia Keke sighed again and said, "Xiao Zhan, you've really defeated me. It seems you really want me to get married."

Xiao Zhan: "We're the best partners, so it's only natural for me to care about you."

As they were speaking,

The two arrived at the scene of the explosion.

A large number of personnel are conducting an intensive and orderly on-site investigation.

Wan Chongshan was personally overseeing the operation on site. When he saw Xiao Zhan and Xia Keke arrive, he stepped forward and asked with concern, "Xiao Zhan, are you alright?"

Xiao Zhan said calmly, "It's just a superficial injury."

Wan Chongshan: "It's good that there are no internal injuries, but we can't be careless about external injuries either. Take good care of yourself and recover these next few days."

"Xiao Zhan, you should go back and rest."

"Leave the rest to me."

"Clatter."

Xiao Zhan lit a cigarette, took a puff, and stared at the several-meter-wide crater at the scene. He said thoughtfully, "Deputy Chief of Staff Wan, I have a feeling that Liu Shiyuan's death is a cover-up for some bigger conspiracy."

Upon hearing this, Wan Chongshan's expression froze for a moment, then he asked, "Xiao Zhan, do you mean that Liu Shiyuan entered the central government with the determination to die, just so that the Mole Plan could be implemented?"

Xiao Zhan nodded and said, "Based on my understanding of Liu Shiyuan, although he is in his seventies or eighties, he cherishes his life. I suspect that he is impersonating General Zhang to cover up an important figure in order to carry out the Mole Plan."

Wan Chongshan blinked and asked, "Do you mean B or Zhang?"

Xiao Zhan shook his head and said, "Today, someone's conspiracy failed, and he will never be able to make a comeback. Zhang Changshan hinted to me in advance in order to atone for his sins. I feel that all of this seems to be a trap, a trap specially made for me. They are just waiting for me to make a fatal mistake at a certain point, and then they will seize the opportunity to launch a fatal blow against me."

"I think this is the real Mole Plan."

Xia Keke, completely confused, asked, "Xiao Zhan, what exactly is the real Mole Plan?"

Xiao Zhan smiled, then said with a confident expression, "I suspect that the Mole Project doesn't actually have a concrete action plan; it's just a code name. How it's actually carried out will be determined by the person in charge based on the actual situation."

Upon hearing this, Wan Chongshan's eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something. He said with a hint of excitement, "Xiao Zhan, you mean that the Mole Plan is just the ultimate goal, but it doesn't have a specific action plan. All the plans are determined at any time and place according to the needs of the plot development."

Xiao Zhan nodded and said, "Yes, that's my guess."

Xia Keke exclaimed in surprise, "My God, is there really such a plan in the world?"

"This is truly something I've never seen or heard of before!"
