No matter how relaxing the time is, it will pass by silently.
The plane landed safely at Chengdu Airport. As the endless stream of passengers came to the airport passage, Gong Xue realized that their vacation was really over.
Gao Lie's cell phone rang, and he walked to a corner to answer the phone.
Gong Xue went to the luggage carousel first and waited to pick up the suitcase.
Maybe there was something wrong with the plane. The passengers on their flight had to wait one-third longer than usual before they saw something coming out of the conveyor belt.
She picked up her luggage and saw Gao Lie, who was more than ten meters away, still talking on the phone.
He didn't open his mouth very often. He only occasionally said a few words to the other person and then continued to listen. Looking at his solemn and cautious expression, she guessed that it must not be an ordinary phone call, maybe it was the same as in Nanjiang Rice Noodles.
Just like the time she saw him on the patio of the store, it was a very important call that she needed to keep confidential.
This may explain why he held the wedding in advance. When most people were still sleeping in their dreams, they had already set off firecrackers. When they arrived at the pre-booked hotel, the ceremony was completed, and it was only about nine o'clock, and then
, they said goodbye to their relatives and friends, and Xie Fei drove them to the airport.
Just based on intuition, she guessed that Gao Lie encountered an unexpected situation that even he could not control. Maybe it was a difficult actual combat mission, or maybe Tianying suffered a major blow that required all his efforts.
It’s a race against time mentally and physically so that both the wedding and the return to the team can be done without delay.
Gao Lie seemed to notice something and looked towards her.
She smiled and waved her hand, indicating that she could wait and let him make the call in peace.
Gao Lie nodded slightly, and then continued to focus on the call.
This time Gao Lie didn't speak for a long time. He came over after a while. After coming over, he apologized and said, "Don't worry, come on, I'll take it!" He grabbed the trolley case without any effort and left a free space.
He held her with just one hand...
The corners of her mouth turned up slightly, enjoying the feeling of being cared for by him, and just followed him out of the airport passage.
It was almost four o'clock in the afternoon. They originally thought they would have to take the night journey back to Tianying to report, but Gao Lie pointed to the people picking up the bus and said, "Look, Xiao Wang is here to pick us up."
It’s true!
She subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand, but as soon as her fingers moved, his strength became stronger.
"You don't need to be shy if you are one of your own," he said.
How could I not blush?
Even Xiao Wang, who was wearing military uniform, couldn't help but blush and avoid their sight when he saw them.
Finally, Gong Xue withdrew her hand.
Xiao Wang grabbed Gao Lie's suitcase and said, "Captain, the political commissar is still waiting for you. Let's leave quickly."
So, she and Gao Lie followed Xiao Wang, who was walking faster than a rabbit, all the way to the parking lot.
After getting in the car, Xiao Wang stared at the road without squinting, completely ignoring the two people in the back seat as if they were nothing.
It was only when the highway forked that Gong Xue discovered that they were going in the wrong direction.
So he asked Xiao Wang: "Aren't we going back to the army?"
Xiao Wang nodded, pointed to the endless stretch of highway ahead and said: "The political commissar is in Chengdu." After saying that, he seemed to think of something important, and quickly added: "Grey Eagle is also here. She originally wanted to pick you up at the airport with the car, but
Falcon won’t let me.”
"Captain Leng is here too?" Gong Xue turned her head and looked at Gao Lie, who was resting with his eyes closed.
"Well, they are all here. All the elite soldiers and generals in our brigade are here..." Xiao Wang wanted to say something else, but suddenly heard a loud cough. He immediately fell silent and turned his attention again.
Get back to the car.
At this point, Gong Xue was certain that Tianying had encountered the most difficult task in history. Otherwise, the most capable and offensive elite troops would not have been dispatched to Chengdu collectively.
Thinking of Gao Lie's cautious attitude, she couldn't help but think of the Xilian Organization, which had a close relationship with her.
Could it be that there is some connection with them?
In the past, she had lost her temper and asked Gao Lie to find out. But now, even though she had guessed some clues, she still maintained a silent and obedient attitude, quietly waiting for Gao Lie.
Lie took the initiative to speak...
But it seemed that Gao Lie had no intention of explaining. This made her feel a little frustrated, but then she thought about it and felt relieved.
At the airport, he didn't send her back to Tianying, but took her with him to Chengdu. Doesn't this mean that he didn't classify her as an unqualified supernumerary this time?
Maybe he really had some last resort. As a leader of a special operations force, he was burdened with a heavy pressure that ordinary people could not imagine. She should not doubt his motives, let alone his abilities.
All she has to do is to be a murderous sword or an indestructible shield in his hands at any time when he needs it most.
The off-road vehicle drove directly in front of the Military Region Information Building before braking.
"Captain, you go in, the political commissar is waiting for you in the lobby." Xiao Wang pointed to the first-floor door where guards were standing guard.
Gao Lie took Gong Xue out of the car, and as soon as he walked up the steps, he saw Tianying's political commissar Han Wei trotting out to greet him.
He was alone and seemed a bit lonely.
"You guys are here. There has been a major breakthrough. Come on, let's go in and talk." Han Wei didn't bother to say hello to Gong Xue and led them into the empty building.
The information building of the military region is a model scientific and technological information center for the whole army. The equipment and staffing here are the best in the whole army. Gong Xue has heard of this place for a long time, and today is the first time to see it up close.
True appearance.
After walking through a long corridor, like passing through an old operating corridor in a hospital, they arrived at the gray-black elevator for about two or three minutes.
Strangely, the elevator did not go up but went down, and actually stopped at the prompt on the second floor. Then Han Wei said to Gong Xue: "There is an old friend who wants to see you. You can go and meet her first. It's over."
, come find us again.”
Old friend?
Who is it?
As soon as the elevator door opened, Gong Xue saw another elevator on the opposite side. She didn't know whether it was up or down.
Han Wei pointed to the passage on the right and said: "It's the first room inside. The people waiting for you are inside."
Gao Lie took the initiative to press the button of the elevator opposite, and then said to the confused Gong Xue: "The political commissar and I are going down first. Please keep your story short and come over as soon as possible to meet us."
Gong Xue nodded, Gao Lie and Han Wei walked into the elevator, and just when the elevator door was about to close, Gao Lie walked out again.
He walked up to her, touched her short hair, showed a comforting smile, and said: "Don't be afraid, it's not a bad thing. In addition, you must always keep in mind the rules of confidentiality. Don't leak a word of what you shouldn't say, even if
The other person is your best friend and the person you trust the most, but you can’t do it either, you know?”
