Snuggled in her mother's arms, Yao Xiaojing realized how much her childishness had worried her relatives. Her father and mother must have been frightened. They were both heartbroken over her matter, especially her mother, who almost never accepted Mu Feng.
From the day he was born, she cared for him as her dearest person. It was because she was too ignorant and made her parents worry and feel sad along with her.
"Xiaojing, mom wants one last promise from you." Chi Yuyan straightened her daughter's face and faced her worried eyes.
"Well, you tell me. As long as I can do it, I will definitely not break my promise again."
Chi Yuyan looked a little serious, and said with a hint of worry in her eyes: "You have to ensure your safety, okay, don't let mom worry anymore." Having Mu Feng at home is enough for them to worry about, if Xiaojing continues to engage in
She would definitely not be able to live her life with peace of mind if she found herself in a highly dangerous job.
Yao Xiaojing's expression was slightly uncomfortable. From the insightful look in the eyes of the female senior officer of the special brigade, she had already guessed that her mother must be suspicious of her abnormal behavior during her vacation.
"I will protect myself, don't worry, mom." She nodded and assured her mother. For Chi Yuyan now, no gorgeous words can comfort her as much as a real promise.
Chi Yuyan sighed heavily, and helped Xiaojing brush up her hanging bangs with her fingers, her eyes filled with deep love.
"Isn't Mom too selfish?"
"No...don't think blindly." Yao Xiaojing hugged her mother and put her face on her shoulder to comfort her.
"Promise mom, you and Mu Feng will be fine...no one is allowed to cause trouble for me!"
"It's definitely fine. Don't worry. Mu Fengfu and I are very lucky. Even if we encounter any danger, we will be able to avoid it." As soon as he said the words, he consciously made a mistake and saw his mother's face turn cloudy again.
Seeing the signs, Yao Xiaojing quickly pulled Chi Yuyan up.
"Mom, let's go eat!! You feel it, my belly is so flat... I'm about to starve to death. I haven't tasted the rice dumplings you made today." Her exaggerated expression temporarily drove her away.
Chi Yuyan was in a bad mood, and the mother and daughter returned to the dinner table hand in hand.
Aunt Zhang couldn't help but be happy when she saw this, and quickly served the rice to Chi Yuyan and Xiaojing.
"Eat, eat!"
"Yes, Aunt Zhang!" Yao Xiaojing stuck out her tongue playfully and stuffed the big, crystal white rice dumpling into her mouth. Her throat was not as thick as Yao Zhiyuan's, and she almost choked to death but did not swallow the rice dumpling.
"Oh, Xiaojing, drink water quickly! How can this silly girl be as muddy as your father?" Chi Yuyan quickly took the cold drink and poured it into her daughter's mouth. Yao Xiaojing stretched her neck, uh uh uh uh
Yes, I hummed several times, my face turned red from holding it in, and then I finally swallowed the rice dumpling in my throat with tears in my eyes.
She clutched her chest and gasped: "I'm choking to death----------cough..."
Her pitiful appearance amused a group of relatives who were surrounding her. They laughed loudly and despised this girl who was said to be a computer genius but was actually a fool in her ability to live.
Chi Yuyan looked at her daughter and sighed secretly. Only the Yao family in the world could stand her nonsense. She knocked on the table angrily and cursed with a smile: "Yao Zhiyuan, look at your precious daughter."
Yao Zhiyuan burst into laughter with joy. He smoothed his daughter's hair and praised, "You are just like your father! However, my father advises you to wait until your throat gets rough before practicing swallowing a rice dumpling in one bite. Do you understand?"
"
"..." Dad, are you the one who scolds your daughter for being stupid in such a different way?
The family was affectionate and restored the harmony of the past. Aunt Zhang was also happy for them. In order to further liven up the atmosphere, she took the green rice dumplings and took the initiative to chat about the unique Dragon Boat Festival customs in her hometown. For a while, on the dining table,
People had a lively and interesting discussion around the Dragon Boat Festival, rice dumplings, relatives, and reunions.
While they were chatting in high spirits, "Ding dong... ding dong..." the urgent doorbell interrupted their conversation.
Aunt Zhang went to open the door.
"Secretary Yang...you are here! It just so happens that we have made rice dumplings at home, let's try them together!" Aunt Zhang greeted warmly.
Yang Wenjun answered absentmindedly and walked into the restaurant quickly without even changing his shoes.
"Xiao Yang, come and have dinner together!!" Yao Zhiyuan waved to Yang Wenjun, who was striding over.
Yang Wenjun looked at the laughing family and couldn't bear to break the warm atmosphere. However, the matter was urgent and he couldn't do it without saying anything...
He hesitated for two seconds, his eyes passed over the smiling Xiao Jing, and he quickly turned away.
"Chief of Staff, I have something to report!" Yang Wenjun knew the Chief of Staff's concerns, and he would definitely not tell what he knew in front of his wife and Xiaojing.
"Oh? It's urgent?" Yao Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows.
"Well, just now Secretary Su who was next to Chief Gu called and said..." He fell silent in time and quietly motioned Yao Zhiyuan to the study with his eyes.
Yao Zhiyuan looked at his wife and daughter and stood up.
"Let's go to the study room to talk."
"Uncle Yang, can you tell me here!" Yao Xiaojing suddenly stood up, her smile still frozen on her face, and her fingers trembling slightly. I don't know why, the look that Uncle Yang just gave and the uncle Su Changqing mentioned were really different.
She felt uneasy and unspeakable, and it made her feel more stuffy and uncomfortable than the rice dumplings stuck in her chest just now.
Yang Wenjun was stunned and looked at Yao Zhiyuan without saying a word.
Yao Zhiyuan suppressed his smile and said in a deep voice: "Can you also listen to military secrets? You're nonsense, just give me a good meal!" He waved his hand and was about to leave, but Chi Yuyan stood up and grabbed Yang Wenjun.
"Xiao Yang, are you talking to the Chief of Staff about military secrets?"
Yang Wenjun was even more afraid to speak now. He shrank his neck and did not directly say no.
Seeing the expression on Yang Wenjun's face, Chi Yuyan's heart dropped. She knew very well that this secretary who had followed Yao Zhiyuan for many years, once he showed such an expression, she could almost conclude that he was deliberately hiding it from her.
important situation.
She nervously grabbed Yang Wenjun's arm and asked in a trembling voice, "Is it Mu Feng? Did something happen to Mu Feng?"
