Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander

Chapter 1770: Chapter 1161: Worry (2)

Mingming could have easily put herself in a safe place, but she insisted on being like everyone else, which naturally earned her more respect.

"Sister-in-law, let’s go back." Zhao Zhu stepped forward and whispered to Chuxia, "Although this place is very close to the safe zone, it’s still not safe."

"Okay." Responding, Chuxia lifted her foot to walk back, feeling a twitch in her right eyelid. She rubbed her eye vigorously, as it’s said that a twitch in the left eye signifies fortune while the right eye signifies disaster, leaving her somewhat worried.

After some thought, she turned towards Zhou Mikang’s tent, not having seen him for a week. From a distance, she saw Zhang Ping standing there, prompting Chuxia to quicken her pace.

"Sister-in-law!" Zhang Ping greeted Chuxia politely.

"Has he come back?" Unconcerned with formalities, Chuxia asked anxiously.

"No." Zhang Ping shook his head and quickly explained, "The Division Commander has been extremely busy lately. Otherwise, he would definitely have come to find you, sister-in-law."

"I know, I’m just worried about him." Chuxia forced a smile and turned to leave. As her figure disappeared into the distance, Zhang Ping couldn’t hold back and called out, "Sister-in-law, wait a moment!"

"Hmm?" Chuxia turned to look at him, her face full of inquiry.

After some hesitation, Zhang Ping walked over to Chuxia and whispered, "Commissar Zhou is trapped in Zone Five, and the Division Commander led a team to rescue him, but now everyone has lost contact with the Division Commander."

Assistant Ou told me not to tell you, but I feel as the Division Commander’s wife, you have the right to know. I also believe, sister-in-law, that you certainly wouldn’t do anything extreme."

"Zhang Ping, why didn’t you say earlier?" Zhao Zhu’s eyes widened, "We’ve come here several times, and every time you had an excuse. If you had told us earlier, sister-in-law wouldn’t have worried this much."

"Wouldn’t she worry more if I told her?" Zhang Ping looked puzzled at Zhao Zhu, not understanding why she would say that.

"It’s different!" Zhao Zhu glared at him and grabbed Chuxia’s arm, "Sister-in-law, let’s go back. The Division Commander is a man of strategy and will surely return safely."

"Hmm." With a nod, Chuxia mechanically followed Zhao Zhu forward without even saying goodbye to Zhang Ping. "Sigh..." Zhang Ping let out a long sigh, his eyes filled with regret. He knew he should have kept quiet, but watching the Division Commander’s wife leave disappointed time and again, he couldn’t bear to deceive her anymore.

"Sister-in-law, you really shouldn’t worry. The Division Commander will definitely, definitely be fine!" Seeing Chuxia looking lost, Zhao Zhu consoled her once more, "Sister-in-law, if you listen to the stories the senior brothers and sisters used to tell about their missions with the Division Commander, you surely wouldn’t worry anymore. We believe there’s nothing in this world that can challenge the Division Commander!"

"I know he’s strong, but..." With a sigh, Chuxia shook her head, "He hasn’t returned for five days. How can you expect me not to worry at all?"

"In our past missions, not to mention five days, even a month without news was normal."

"The past and now are different."

"It’s actually quite similar, really." Afraid Chuxia wouldn’t believe him, Zhao Zhu patted his chest and vowed, "If I’m telling even a half-truth, let me not die a good death!"

"I never said I didn’t believe you, is it necessary to say something like that?" Glancing angrily at Zhao Zhu, Chuxia let out a long breath, forcing a smile, "Don’t worry, I’ll adjust myself."

"Chuxia!" From afar, Wu Jingbo ran over.

"What’s wrong?" Chuxia quickened her steps to meet her, "What happened?"

"Come with me quickly." She grabbed Chuxia and ran towards the area where the injured were being treated, "Ye Meiru is back, badly injured, and she said she has something to tell you, so she sent me to get you quickly."

...

Lying in the operating room, Ye Meiru was pale. Seeing Chuxia, a glimmer of light shone in her eyes: "You’re finally here, if you had been any later, I wouldn’t be able to hold on."

"If you knew you couldn’t hold on, why wouldn’t you listen to advice?!" Doctor Qiao glared at her angrily, turning to Chuxia, "Xiao Lin, just let her say whatever she wants, I’m preparing for surgery now."

"Okay." Answering, Chuxia quickly looked Ye Meiru up and down, wanting to know where exactly she was injured, having had no time to ask Wu Jingbo earlier in the rush.

"I took two bullets in my leg, one in my right chest. I’m not going to die, but I can’t move..." Ye Meiru looked seriously at Chuxia, "Zhou Mikang asked me to bring you a message. He will definitely come back for you. He said he remembers your agreement and asked you not to give up."

"What do you mean?" Chuxia anxiously grabbed her arm, "You’ve seen Zhou Mikang? What’s happened to him exactly? Where is he now? What about others, are they all safe?"

"Of course I’ve seen him, otherwise, how could I bring you a message? Zhou Mikang is also injured, but only slightly. As for the others you’re asking about, who exactly do you mean? If it’s everyone, then naturally there are casualties. If it’s a specific person, I will tell you what I know."

Chuxia waved her hand: "Okay, just treat it as if I asked a redundant question. Is Zhou Hanliang with Zhou Mikang?"

"No, because the Commissar hasn’t been rescued yet, the Division Commander insists on staying over there..." Saying this, Ye Meiru’s head tilted, and she fainted, leaving Chuxia scratching her head in urgency. This isn’t a movie or a TV show, why faint at such a critical moment? Okay, she realized it was a bit unkind to think this way. Adjusting her mindset, she quickly composed herself, realizing that at this time, she couldn’t panic, and needed to save Ye Meiru to find out more clearly what she wanted to know! (To be continued.
