Married to Officer, Pregnant Specialist becomes the Winner!-Chapter 120: Ningning, I Know There’s Something Special About You
"Ningning, do you suspect anyone?" Seeing Gu Jia Ning deep in thought, Sheng Zexi asked.
Gu Jia Ning gazed at him, somewhat hesitant, "There is someone I suspect, but I have no evidence."
"Who is it?"
Gu Jia Ning pursed her lips and uttered, "Li Shuyao."
"I’m not saying this just because she likes you, remember that New Year’s Eve performance? Although Li Shuyao didn’t speak to me or interact with me then, my intuition tells me she harbors malice towards me, whether it’s because of you or something else, I am not certain."
In fact, that malice was detected by the Malice Detector, it definitely couldn’t be wrong.
But Gu Jia Ning couldn’t reveal the Malice Detector, so she could only say it was her intuition.
Gu Jia Ning held Sheng Zexi’s hand, "Brother Xi, believe me, my intuition is never wrong."
Seeing Gu Jia Ning a little anxious, as if afraid he would not believe her, Sheng Zexi quickly patted her hand to reassure her, "Ningning, of course, I believe you."
"Don’t worry, I will report this suspicion to the police on that side, let them investigate Li Shuyao, it’s just..."
Sheng Zexi paused for a moment, "Li Shuyao’s identity is hard to investigate, unless there is concrete, easily obtainable evidence, otherwise..."
Gu Jia Ning nodded, "I understand."
"I’m saying this just to make sure you’re alert about Li Shuyao, I’m not saying it out of jealousy."
Gu Jia Ning didn’t want Sheng Zexi to misunderstand that she was wrongfully accusing someone out of jealousy.
Sheng Zexi laughed, "I know, I still believe you, I will be cautious."
After speaking, Sheng Zexi pulled Gu Jia Ning into his embrace.
Gu Jia Ning leaned quietly against Sheng Zexi, thinking about this matter.
The fact that there was someone employing the human traffickers behind the scenes was unexpected, yet somehow not entirely surprising.
She felt there was a high possibility it could be Li Shuyao.
But just like Brother Xi said, even if the police investigate, the chances of finding out it was Li Shuyao are very slim.
After all, this person made such a disguise, always contacting the traffickers without showing up, and now it’s even more impossible to leave any evidence.
Nevertheless, in her heart, Gu Jia Ning remained vigilant against Li Shuyao and used this matter to alert Sheng Zexi to be cautious of Li Shuyao.
Otherwise, they might get stabbed by Li Shuyao without realizing it.
However, Gu Jia Ning was somewhat curious.
Was Li Shuyao targeting her and wishing to disfigure her, or even have her disappear, really because she became Sheng Zexi’s wife and out of a woman’s jealousy?
If it were merely for this, hiring someone to ruin a girl’s appearance and even having her abducted by traffickers, then Li Shuyao would be too terrifying. But if it wasn’t, then what was Li Shuyao’s motive against her?
This matter hadn’t reached a conclusion yet when another event diverted Gu Jia Ning’s attention.
Because Sheng Zexi was about to go on a mission.
The mountain had been snowbound for two months, and Sheng Zexi had already resumed full-day training, and now he had to go on a mission.
Actually, since joining the military, as a military spouse, Gu Jia Ning was aware that there would come a day when she would have to face Sheng Zexi being deployed.
For him to only be sent on a mission now, and for him to have been home with her for so long, was not easy.
Every time she thought of Sheng Zexi’s mission, Gu Jia Ning couldn’t help but recall the bloody and sacrificial scenes she glimpsed in the future visions.
Although at the beginning of Rebirth, choosing Sheng Zexi was partly to avoid repeating past mistakes, it was also because Sheng Zexi liked her in both his past and present lives.
She knew that her feelings for Sheng Zexi at that time weren’t strong, and Sheng Zexi was aware of this.
So, after marriage, he always gave his best to win her affection.
This was Sheng Zexi’s open and honest strategy.
In fact, Gu Jia Ning had to admit, through these months of getting along, she had gradually grown fond of him, even deeply relied on him.
Sometimes, just the thought of her life without him would fill Gu Jia Ning with unease.
She couldn’t live without him anymore.
She was already deeply entangled in the web of emotions he had woven, unable to extricate herself.
So she feared the situations she saw in her future visions and wished for his well-being.
Gu Jia Ning packed Sheng Zexi’s simple clothing, most importantly bringing along the 5 rolls of Universal Hemostatic Bandage for him, and of course, some essential small pills, basically everything she could think of.
Sheng Zexi quietly watched Gu Jia Ning’s busy silhouette, knowing that from the moment he mentioned the mission, he could distinctly sense the unease in Ningning. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
That kind of unease, palpable, yet he didn’t know how to describe it, it was as if Ningning had already foreseen the possibility of him meeting harm on this mission.
Sheng Zexi didn’t step forward to help. He knew that perhaps only through such busyness could Ningning’s heart find some semblance of peace, alleviating her anxiety.
Once Gu Jia Ning finished packing, she pulled Sheng Zexi to sit on the kang, "I have something to tell you."
Sheng Zexi sat quietly, watching as she opened the bundle, introducing the items inside one by one.
The last item was 5 rolls of what looked like bandages.
"This bandage has a name, called Universal Hemostatic Bandage."
Universal?
Sheng Zexi felt a slight confusion.
"No matter if it’s a gunshot or a sharp object wound, massive bleeding, as long as the person hasn’t died instantly and is still breathing, using this Universal Hemostatic Bandage can stop the bleeding in an instant and sustain the person’s life until they receive treatment."
"There are 5 rolls in total. Take them with you; they might come in handy."
As she took out the Universal Hemostatic Bandage and introduced it to Sheng Zexi, Gu Jia Ning felt a sense of having nothing to lose.
After she finished, Gu Jia Ning instinctively closed her eyes, waiting quietly for Sheng Zexi’s questions.
To her surprise, she didn’t hear any questions. When she opened her eyes, she saw Sheng Zexi putting the 5 rolls of bandages back into her hand, solemnly saying, "Keep them; don’t let anyone see."
Gu Jia Ning stared blankly at the bandages in her hand, bewildered, Brother Xi meant...
"No, you must take them." Gu Jia Ning pushed the bandages back to Sheng Zexi.
Sheng Zexi stood up and securely closed the door and windows.
Returning to the kang, he gazed intently at Gu Jia Ning, taking a deep breath, "Ningning, I know you have special abilities."
His words made Gu Jia Ning’s pupils widen slightly, and visible unease crept into her expression.
Sheng Zexi placed both hands on her shoulders, comforting her, "But Ningning, if you don’t speak of it, I will never ask."
