Love letters are not allowed in the exorcism notebook!-Chapter 1046 - 113 I, a Man, Pure as Snow
Wang Yunxiao was grounded for a whole month, completely unaware of the earth-shattering changes outside.
The note submitted by the United Kingdom’s diplomatic ambassador stirred up a massive wave of public opinion.
On one hand, local military corps issued statements one after another, showcasing a tough stance of being prepared for battle.
On the other hand, some called loudly for peace and development as a priority, cautioning against sparking border conflicts.
Both sides were at an impasse, engaging in verbal battles from a distance.
It could be said that each has its own justification.
The radicals believed that the President had fought battles north and south, establishing an international status after all. There’s no reason to be constrained and negotiate with the foreigners after forming a new government.
Foreigners fear force and not virtue; if you don’t beat them senseless, they won’t learn their lesson.
Moreover, the United Kingdom invaded the mainland twice before, threatening with force multiple times, and those debts remain unsettled.
We can’t leave these issues for future generations to resolve, can we?
On the other hand, the conservatives argued that going to war rashly over such trifles was meaningless; it would deplete national power without benefits. The national policy direction has just been adjusted, and using military force now is truly inappropriate.
As for the diplomatic note from the foreigners, you can just treat it as hot air; why bother acknowledging it?
On the surface, it seems to be a difference in stance, but in reality, it involves actual interests from all sides.
Some even took this opportunity to gauge the upper echelons’ intentions.
In ancient times, this was called "seeking advancement."
Working hard in an office via normal channels for a lifetime might not even lead to a few promotions. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
If you could discern the true thoughts of the President, stepping forward to support and relieve him, naturally, you’ll gain numerous benefits afterward.
In summary, it’s chaotic and intricate.
If Wang Yunxiao hadn’t been protected by the Navy at that time, he would inevitably have been used and dragged into this complex political vortex, exploited completely.
Of course, Wang Yunxiao knew none of this; he just desperately wanted to call Li Mumu.
Missing his wife.
Inside Yang Qiming’s file folder, there were nearly thirty photos, all of young and attractive girls—some of whom Wang Yunxiao found familiar, as they were nurses from the hospital.
The other girls also came from Navy families, and quite a few had stunning, captivating looks.
Especially the ones Yang Qiming personally circled, Wang Yunxiao felt a flutter in his heart looking at them.
You’re using this to test the cadres...
But then again, the Navy’s benefits indeed surpassed those of the Special Service Bureau and the Army.
Wang Yunxiao had worked like a horse in the Special Service Bureau for so long without ever being given such a test.
The Mu Family was even less worth mentioning. Li Mumu didn’t even want to acknowledge that relationship, yet they shamelessly treated Wang Yunxiao as if he was a live-in son-in-law of the Mu Family.
Comparing both sides, the difference was clear.
But actually, I still prefer the work at the Special Service Bureau; the work hours are more flexible, not at all dull, and it’s not that busy now.
Wang Yunxiao was deeply hesitant.
The main issue was that the Navy offered too much.
He clearly understood that not everyone would receive such treatment.
The most important reason remained his parents.
With his background as an orphan of martyrs, the Navy would still support him for life even if he achieved nothing.
Moreover, he had now achieved cultivation success, outstanding performance, and notable war achievements.
For such a young man, if you don’t invest in him, who else would you invest in?
In other words, the treatment from the Navy was partly due to his own efforts and partly his rightful entitlement.
For instance, introducing him to girls.
If he didn’t accept these fresh and tender girls, they might be introduced to those who boasted about being charming in their youth, but now half their body was in the grave.
What a sin.
Wang Yunxiao admired the photos in his hand while dialing the school’s phone number.
"Yes, this is Wang Yunxiao. Please let Li Mumu take the call..."
"...What do you mean you thought I was dead? Can’t you wish me well? Where’s your sister-in-law?"
"Dumpling is getting married? Who... Oh oh oh, remembered now."
Wang Yunxiao was holding the phone between his neck, listening to Youtiao report the situation while waiting for Eldest Miss Li to come over, when he heard a clear voice behind him shout: "Hello, Sir!"
His hand shook, the file folder fell to the ground with a snap, and the photos scattered all over.
"Let me pick them up for you!"
Before he could bend over, a little girl with ponytails rushed over.
Wang Yunxiao’s fingers stiffened in embarrassment, as he was holding her photo right then.
Nie Xiaoyun, sixteen, graduated from the health school last year. Her parents were workers at the Navy shipyard. Her background was clean, and she had a sweet voice.
She was one of those Yang Qiming circled as a key object of interest, with a note at the back.
—Brave, with a pleasant singing voice.
Wang Yunxiao hadn’t seen her at the hospital before, mainly because his restricted special care room level was relatively high, and interns like her weren’t allowed near.
Nie Xiaoyun paused for a moment seeing the scattered photos, then noticed the one in Wang Yunxiao’s hand and blushed immediately upon realizing.
Wang Yunxiao quietly handed the photo over.
"Sorry, Sir, I came to deliver a wheelchair to you..."
"Don’t call me Sir."
It’s unsettling to hear.
As Wang Yunxiao was about to speak, Li Mumu’s lazy voice came from the other end of the phone: "Commander Wang, finally remembered to call me?"
Wang Yunxiao instinctively covered the receiver.
"Why don’t you sit down first?"
"Don’t speak!"
"Who are you talking to?"
Nie Xiaoyun and Li Mumu spoke almost simultaneously, making Wang Yunxiao’s head swim.
"Nothing, just a nurse from the hospital."
Wang Yunxiao motioned for the enthusiastic young girl to close her mouth and quickly explained to Li Mumu.
"A female nurse?"
The tone of Eldest Miss Li on the other end of the phone subtly changed.
"You’ve been recovering well, it seems."
Sweat appeared subtly on Wang Yunxiao’s forehead.
He was truly embarrassed to banter with Li Mumu in front of the girl.
"Let’s not talk about anything else. I can be discharged; can you come to pick me up?"
"Sir, you can’t be discharged yet!"
Nie Xiaoyun blinked her eyes, and quietly reminded him.
Although she had lowered her voice as much as possible, Eldest Miss Li on the other end still caught a sound, and immediately began calculating the cause and effect.
"Thank you, but could you go busy yourself first?"
Wang Yunxiao felt a chill climb up his spine to his brainstem, hurriedly signaling for Nie Xiaoyun to leave.
Nie Xiaoyun tilted her head, looking innocent, but obediently turned to leave nonetheless.
"Wang Yunxiao..."
"Yeah, I’m here."
"Is the little nurse pretty?"
"This is the hospital’s phone, can we talk about serious stuff?"
"No time."
"What?"
"No time to pick you up, come back by yourself."
"Don’t!"
