Another day for double update~~ ♥️
“I don’t know. How could I dare to ask?”
Wen Mei lowered her voice: “I just know that they must have gone to the 18th floor because your family and the Cheng family live upstairs now. They haven’t come down for about 20 minutes.”
Ruan Ning’s face suddenly became solemn.
It was true that there were two families living upstairs now. But Cheng Jikuan and his sister and Cheng Jili had all gone out to chop firewood. Ruan Cifeng was not at home either.
Only Zhou Sulan was left at home.
“I understand.”
Ruan Ning took out a piece of compressed biscuit from her backpack and handed it to Wen Mei: “We can talk about other things next time. I’ll go upstairs first.”
Wen Mei glanced at her cautiously: “Then, you should be careful.”
Ruan Ning hummed and quickened her pace back to the 18th floor.
The three soldiers were not in the stairwell or hallway.
The security door was locked.
Ruan Ning used her hand to ring the security door. Then, Zhou Sulan came out a moment later and said loudly, “Ning Ning, you’re finally back.”
While Zhou Sulan was opening the door, Ruan Ning lowered her voice and asked, “What’s going on? Is anyone coming upstairs? Why did you open the door?”
Zhou Sulan said: “Yes, it is Major General Sun who is coming.”
Ruan Ning was stunned and then suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: “Did he come to see me?”
“No, he came to see the guy next door.”
At this time, the two of them had already walked to the door. Zhou Sulan said loudly: “Don’t go out in such cold weather in the future. It’s not safe for a girl to run outside.”
Ruan Ning answered obediently: “I know, Mom.”
When they entered the room, there were three soldiers sitting inside.
Zhou Sulan had space, so the house had been cleaned up, leaving only ordinary furniture and the stove fire.
There was also a whole kitchen full of dry firewood.
Ruan Ning looked over and saw that besides Sun Yongchao, there was another soldier who was also an acquaintance of hers, the one who brought her the compressed biscuits.
The other one was unknown. He looked to be in his twenties and had a young face.
Ruan Ning smiled: “Brother Sun, I heard from my mother that you are here, and she called you Major General Sun.”
Sun Yongchao sat in front of the return furnace and warmed himself by the fire. He said with a smile: “Don’t tease me. I haven’t been promoted yet. They are just calling me for fun.”
Ruan Ning walked to the side of the fire.
Sun Yongchao introduced: “You should have seen this person. He is my bodyguard now. His name is Su Ming.”
“This is Ning Hai, the person in charge of the new recruits camp.”
Ruan Ning smiled at the two of them.
Ning Hai might be too young. He was a little nervous and shy when he saw Ruan Ning.
After Sun Yongchao finished the introduction, he smiled and said, “This is your own home, so I don’t need to greet you. Come and sit down.”
Ruan Ning took off one pair of the double gloves on her hands: “Then, I won’t be polite.”
At this time, Zhou Sulan came over, poured Ruan Ning a cup of boiling water, and sat next to her daughter.
Ruan Ning asked curiously, “When I just walked in, my mother said that you are here to find Cheng Jikuan and his sister.”
“That’s right.”
Sun Yongchao said: “You also know that we are seriously understaffed now, so we have been recruiting people.”
“And the new recruits camp… Well, they haven’t had training for two days since they were recruited.”
“I’m looking for Brother Cheng Jikuan because I know he’s good at shooting, better than us, the old hands. So, I want him to teach the new recruits how to shoot.”
Ruan Ning was stunned: “Is that so?”
Sun Yongchao sighed: “But he doesn’t seem to be very willing.”
Looking at Ruan Ning, Sun Yongchao said meaningfully: “Miss Ruan, what do you think of our job?”
Ruan Ning blinked and did not answer the question: “Brother Sun, do you want me to help you persuade Cheng Jikuan?”
Sun Yongchao just smiled and said nothing.
