My Wife is Actually a top-tier Soldier King?!-Chapter 1209 - 1100: Steal the chicken only to lose the rice!_2
Shayol has been suspended, who would believe what he says?
...
Miles away.
With a snap.
Wu Jie lit a cigarette and took a deep drag.
Having dodged a life-and-death calamity, his heart felt not the slightest joy.
Who the hell could feel good after nearly kicking the bucket first thing in the morning?
That damn Kill Order, it’s truly ruthless!
One wave more vicious than the last!
What high-handed or cruel tricks will they come up with next?
Wu Jie furrowed his brows, his thoughts drifting far away.
"Hey Jie, how did you know their exact location? If you didn’t provide target guidance, there’s no way we could have hit them!"
Tang Xiao suddenly turned around, asking with a face full of curiosity.
Wu Jie smiled faintly.
"Investing hundreds of billions to build the Science Research City, how could I not include some defense devices to keep an eye on the place?"
Tang Xiao paused for a moment, then nodded slightly: "That’s true, but what kind of devices are they? Other advanced radars can’t detect them..."
Before Tang Xiao could finish, Wu Jie raised his hand to interrupt her.
"When we have time, I’ll take you to the intelligence center to see, and you’ll understand. Now go downstairs and bring mom and dad back!"
"Remember, don’t ever mention that our house was almost blown up, Old Mr. Tang is a smart man; he certainly won’t talk nonsense!"
After instructing Tang Xiao, Wu Jie immediately picked up his phone to call Elder Tan.
Tang Xiao did not hesitate and quickly left in a hurry.
The call connected quickly.
"You really are a man of great fortune and capability, truly a blessing to us!" Elder Tan started, then spoke solemnly: "I know what you’re calling for. Without solid evidence, they will definitely deny everything!"
Wu Jie sneered: "Yeah, they’ve been blown to bits, can’t even make a big deal out of it if I wanted to!"
"I’m really curious, how did you manage to hack in and seize command and control?"
"Elder Tan, you’re joking, where did I hack in? I didn’t do anything, it was their own misfire!"
...
In casual conversation.
Mr. and Mrs. Wu Jianguo returned.
As soon as they entered the yard, Wu Jianguo yelled from downstairs.
"Jie, come down! Quick!"
Tang Xiao quickly approached the window, leaned out, and called back: "Dad, he’s on the phone, he’ll come down in a bit!"
Xiao Yueqin, with furrowed brows, asked: "Xiao, do you know what just happened? Why did they suddenly have us run away? And the farther, the better?"
"It was just a drill! Just a drill!"
Tang Xiao glanced at the guard standing next to Mr. and Mrs. Wu Jianguo and laughed:
"The Security Bureau often conducts various emergency drills to ensure safety!"
"That’s right, it’s better to be safe than sorry!"
The guard said cheerfully.
"Turns out it was just a drill!" Wu Jianguo heaved a sigh of relief, waving his hand: "Well, it’s good, with Old Mr. Tang here, it’s indeed time for more practice!"
Wu Jianguo, who was once a soldier, immediately accepted the explanation.
"Then you two hurry up and come downstairs; I made you chicken soup with an old hen!"
Xiao Yueqin said and went straight to the kitchen, Da Huang wagged its tail, following merrily behind.
Chicken soup with an old hen again!
Sigh!
Tang Xiao felt that whenever she and Wu Jie came home, the family poultry and fish were doomed.
With such intense nourishment like this, one might not get pregnant but certainly would end up getting fatter first.
But...
Can you really say that out loud?
The in-laws are also well-intentioned, trying every possible way to have the couple conceive a child sooner.
If one really gets pregnant, what’s the harm in getting a bit chubby?
In the future, control your diet, take more steps, eat less and exercise more; it’s easy to lose weight.
But getting pregnant...
That’s really not so easy!
Tang Xiao lowered her head, turned around, gently caressed her belly, and let out a long sigh.
"...Alright, I’ll pass the message to Old Mr. Tang, then let’s talk later!"
Ending the call, Wu Jie pinched out the cigarette and closed his laptop.
"Mom says we should hurry down, she’s made old hen soup!"
Tang Xiao came over, speaking somewhat helplessly.
"Why is it always soup? Can’t we have soy-simmered chicken, or spicy chicken pot? Even grilled fish, sauerkraut fish, or spicy boiled fish would do!"
Wu Jie shook his head with a sigh, also feeling helpless.
Just as they descended the stairs to the dining room, Old Mr. Tang returned with a rather gloomy face.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw Xiao Yueqin serving soup and cracked a slight smile, choosing to remain silent.
"Have it while it’s hot. If there aren’t enough egg pancakes, I’ll make some more!"
"That’s enough, enough!"
Wu Jie exchanged a knowing look with Old Mr. Tang and they shared a silent laugh.
"Then you guys take your time. I still have work to finish in the fields!"
Xiao Yueqin glanced at Tang Xiao with a beaming smile.
Daughter-in-law Tang Xiao, with her rosy and fair complexion, and a spring in her eyebrows, indeed seemed to have worked hard last night in creating human life!
After breakfast, Tang Xiao cleared the table while Old Mr. Tang gave a signal, and Wu Jie followed him into the side room.
This place used to be a storage for clutter, but since Old Mr. Tang started living with the family, it was tidied up and turned into a leisurely tea room.
Upon entering, Wu Jie promptly closed the door, with two guards standing watch outside.
"This is outrageous! They’ve gone too far this time!"
Wu Jie smiled and said: "Old Mr. don’t be too angry, take care of your health. Sit down, please!"
Old Mr. Tang sat down, fuming, with clenched teeth and puffed cheeks.
"How can I not be angry? This is downright banditry! Such tyranny!"
"Do they think this is Nabigu Continent? Coming and going as they please, whenever they want?"
"If this happened to me, I’d have to fight back!"
Wu Jie, with a smile on his face, skillfully prepared tea.
After all, Old Mr. Tang was a tough veteran forged through wars and battled through seas of blood and mountains of corpses.
Because of this early disturbance, he couldn’t even enjoy a peaceful morning run.
Though it was just a false alarm, would a tiger fail to show its might and be taken for a sick cat?
"Here you go, Old Mr., have some tea to cool down a bit!"
"Drink tea? Where’s the cigarette? Give me one!"
"Ah? But your health..."
"What’s wrong with having a smoke when I’m displeased?"
Old Mr. Tang said as he reached out his hand.
"Hurry up, what’s with the dawdling? Is one cigarette going to give me lung cancer? Even if I get lung cancer, I’m not afraid, isn’t there a Detox Pill?"
Wu Jie was left speechless.
He put down the teapot and lit a cigarette for him.
Old Mr. Tang could only look forward to Wu Jie’s return; Wu Jianguo and the other guards would never allow him to smoke.
Are you kidding me?
At the age of ninety, if something went wrong while smoking, who could bear the responsibility?
Clutching the cigarette, Old Mr. Tang took a fierce drag.
Closing his eyes, tilting his head back, he was in a state of utter enjoyment.
He took puff after puff, skillfully blowing smoke rings, truly a seasoned smoker!
After a short while, he opened his eyes and said slowly:
"Elder Tan must have called you by now, right? What were his thoughts?"
Wu Jie shrugged and said: "It’s all blown to smithereens, without a shred of evidence, what can he do? I even called Shayol; he simply denied everything outright!"
"Ah? You... you actually called him? How did you know his phone number?"
Old Mr. Tang’s face showed astonishment as if he had heard something unbelievable.
Wu Jie laughed and said: "Actually, it’s nothing much, just a little trick. I got access to their internal communication network, and I also found out he got suspended and was asked to immediately go back for an investigation!"
Just then, the phone rang.
"Mr. Wu, something terrible has happened, Mrs. Chu drove back to her hometown and got into a car accident! She’s been admitted to the hospital!"
"The situation is serious, the doctor says the child might not be saved!"
