Chapter 622: Chapter 485: With a Nephew Like You, That’s Really Reliable! (Part 3)

Yin Shixiu didn’t startle them, he just asked Wu Ye to subtly inquire about the situation of other team members during the operation.

Pretending to be writing an action report.

Su Hang might have thought he did it flawlessly, but he didn’t know...

Yin Shixiu had never been an easy person to deal with, not only that, he was naturally, even more so than Yin Shiqing, a deep schemer and a conspiracy theorist.

He was almost stubbornly convinced by his sixth sense that the rescue operation failed because someone deliberately sabotaged it.

As long as he found a trace, he would quietly pull out the entire thread.

Thus, his suspicion was eventually confirmed.

Among the two action team members who were shot, one of them had told a partner that they saw movement on the side of the church, so he made the decision to go over there.

He returned only as the action unfolded, injured at the time, claiming it was because a thug had discovered him.

Wu Ye learned of the situation and naturally had a pretty good idea.

He was well aware of the stakes of this incident.

Even a slight mishandling could directly affect diplomatic relations between the two countries, and the grievances of people in both nations.

Even if Su Hang and others were to be sent to a military court, it had to be resolved internally after returning to the country.

Of course, all of this was predicated on solid evidence; once alerted, Su Hang would be on guard.

Someone as cunning as him would certainly not sit back and wait for death.

One hundred and five lives, all because of one’s personal desires and malevolence.

The thugs who took hostages were indeed brutal, but even more frightening than these brutal thugs were—

Those political thugs who wear fancy clothes, shout about serving the nation and the people, yet center everything around their own power and desires!

Yin Shiqing... truly reckless.

Su Chengji washed his face and came out of the bathroom, his eyes still slightly red, but his face, which never looked particularly old, was now squinting with a smile and sauntering into the ward.

"My daughter, truly clever and brave beyond compare..."

Listening, Yin Shixiu couldn’t help but chuckle softly...

————

Su Xiaomeng leaned against the hospital bed, listening to her dad exaggerate comically.

For a moment, she didn’t know whether to humor him with a smile or to tear off his mask and see if her dad would cry even worse than they did...

Which one would be better?

So conflicted...

And thus, in this inner conflict, she let her Dad carry on with his antics to lighten the mood.

Bai Sixian sat by the bed peeling fruit, listening to her husband swear how calm and composed he was!

She didn’t expose him either.

Having something happened to Xiao Meng, her husband’s mood definitely wasn’t any better than hers.

Shuangshuang and Huanghuang opened their mouths wide for apples.

Seeing the brother and sister so full of energy, Su Xiaomeng felt greatly relieved.

At this point, she couldn’t help but want to thank Shan Mingxu properly.

Just as she thought of this, she saw two people peeking in at the door, both dressed casually, one in a long T-shirt and jeans, the other wearing a leather jacket.

They had dark skin, but their eyes were bright.

"Mrs. Yin... You’re awake?" 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Su Xiaomeng raised her eyebrows, puzzled, who are these two...?

"Shan Mingxu’s comrades."

Su’s mother whispered, and Su Xiaomeng realized, Mingxu’s comrades, they were the ones who helped save them.

"Hello, I was just about to look for Mingxu, we really owe our lives to your bravery this time—"

"Mrs. Yin, please don’t say that, we actually didn’t do much, otherwise..."

Su Xiaomeng quickly said,

"Mingxu was by my side, how could I not know what you guys did? But let’s do our best and leave the rest to fate."

Fang Zi naturally had an amiable face, and the person with him was the deputy leader of the task force.

The two, who had grown accustomed to being informal in the military, felt a bit uneasy in front of the courteous and polite Mrs. Yin.

"Sit down, I’ll get you some water, there’s fruit here, take what you like, make yourselves at home."

Su’s mother said.

These were her daughter’s saviors, and though Su Xiaomeng was unconscious, she had expressed her immense gratitude.

But a life-saving favor can never be fully repaid.

"Auntie, you’re too kind, we just came to check on Mrs. Yin..."

Fang Zi said, suppressing a laugh.

Su Xiaomeng was quite perceptive and didn’t miss the suspicious amusement,

"Hmm... Is there something funny?"

"Ah, Mrs. Yin is very sharp!"

"Let me, let me!"

"..."

Aren’t these two supposed to be elite soldiers?

Why don’t they act like heroic warriors?

Hmm, okay, Shan Mingxu usually doesn’t act serious either.

Finally, Fang Zi gained the speaking privilege and enthusiastically, as if the story was bursting out of him, quickly said,

"Mrs. Yin, you wouldn’t know, when the captain thought you were dead, he just started bawling! He cried so heartily, cried like he was utterly heartbroken! My god, he cried like... Anyway, I can’t even describe it!"

Fang Zi let out a long breath, that’s what he wanted to say!

Su Xiaomeng blinked, "I wasn’t dead, why’d he cry like that? And... he cried like that?"

If it were Ming Lang, she might have believed it a little.

"Exactly, right? He was just blaming himself for not protecting you, which we all understood, but really he cried like a kid who’d been terribly wronged! Wow, thinking about it now, it cracks me up!"

"Cough, cough... Really?"

Su Xiaomeng was still a bit skeptical.

"How about I imitate it for you?"

Fang Zi was so amused, utterly at his wits’ end, with no heart and liver.

"Are you guys looking for trouble?"

A cold voice suddenly sounded behind Fang Zi.

Shan Mingxu was wearing a beige trench coat over his hospital gown and still in slippers.

His face stern.

Even so, Su Xiaomeng noticed Shan Mingxu’s slightly red ears.

Apparently...

Fang Zi’s words did have some truth.

"Captain, you said that, we’re just telling the truth."

"Auntie, don’t listen to them exaggerating. It’s just good that you’re safe."

Shan Mingxu himself knew how out of control his emotions were at the time, knew how unsightly he looked, and now thinking about it, he feels deep regret.

Especially seeing Su Xiaomeng alive and well...

He felt a mixture of feelings.

He was very thankful she was alive but also regretted his outburst.

At that moment, he seemed less able to accept Su Xiaomeng’s potential death than Yin Shixiu.

Now, it’s okay...

He had left an indelible black mark on his comrades.

"Are you injured?"

"Just a minor injury, it’s nothing."

Shan Mingxu said, attempting to be manly.

However, just as he finished speaking, Fang Zi quipped,

"Captain, why are you trying to act calm?"

Shan Mingxu raised his uninjured hand, ready to punch!

Fang Zi, being a clever one, ducked and leaned towards Su Xiaomeng!

"Get over here!"

Shan Mingxu sharply commanded.

"Do you think this is the military? You call and I’ll just come over?"

"Haha!"

"Brother... Mommy needs to rest, shh..."

Shuangshuang toddled over, tugged on Shan Mingxu’s pants, and shushed him with her index finger on her lips.

Shan Mingxu cleared his throat and glared menacingly at Fang Zi.

He glanced at Su Xiaomeng, his gaze averted awkwardly.

By now, Su Xiaomeng roughly guessed, maybe Fang Zi exaggerated a bit...

But knowing Mingxu thought she might have died, he indeed felt self-reproach and sadness.

"If Mingxu hadn’t been there this time, Shuangshuang, Huanghuang, and I wouldn’t have survived even if we had a hundred lives."

Su Xiaomeng earnestly looked at Shan Mingxu,

"I feel that marrying into the Yin Family, having a nephew like you, is truly dependable!"

"...What’s dependable about it."

Shan Mingxu turned his head, muttering quietly.

"In every way, you and Ming Lang make me feel like having family like this is really great."
