Reborn in the 1980s: Recapture My Devoted Husband-Chapter 647 - 625: Going Out Together

"You two become so sluggish once you have wives, even when making a phone call it takes forever. Hurry up, the car will pick us up in the afternoon," Liao Ye said, unimpressed by their nagging behavior.

Han Yi sneered, gave him a sideways glance and said, "What’s there for you to brag as a loner? You don’t get to have someone warm the bed in the evening, like we do with heated soup and fresh clothes. You wouldn’t understand the perks of having a wife with your cold stove and bed."

Liao Ye snorted, "Damn it, when I return this time, I’ll find someone too. I must see if it’s as good as you say."

Ning Jiang shot him a glance and laughed, "Oh, don’t end up being clingier than us, holding your wife all day and not wanting to leave the house."

"Nah, no matter how good it is, I won’t be whiny like you guys," Liao Ye retorted.

Lu Guoqi laughed from the side, "For now, just think about the situation in a few days. I’ve heard that this time we’ll be paired with Mei Lang Chi."

Han Yi’s eyes flickered, but he didn’t react much; his father-in-law had hinted about this on the phone a few days ago.

"This really needs careful handling this time. Li Bangguo and Silly Strong are his people. During several missions, Lu Guoqi was also there; those two often played dirty tricks from behind."

"Don’t worry, we have a backup plan this time. If they succeed again, these years would have been wasted," Ning Jiang confidently reassured them, looking at the assured Han Yi, smiling.

Everyone nodded, looking prepared.

Their mission this time was actually very dangerous, Han Yi hadn’t disclosed the real situation to Lin Wan, fearing she would worry. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

The location they were heading to was remote and perfect for hiding people. If they couldn’t capture everyone in one sweep and someone escaped, it would be extremely hard to catch them again.

The gang is quite large and not easy to deal with. They are people from the underworld.

So several teams were going this time. They had to pass through a large forest, where their hideout was located in a village within the forest.

It’s hard for ordinary people to imagine such an environment where people would still live, and it’s unclear how many years this village has existed.

The team spent three days in a car to reach the rendezvous point; this time, their team leader was Liao Ye. There were fifteen people from the academy, while Mei Lang Chi’s team had twenty people.

Additionally, there were two other teams with around twenty people each. Their task this time was arduous, with more enemies than allies.

Besides, the enemies had plenty of weapons and were reckless fighters, demanding extreme caution in dealing with them. One mistake and it could be over. The overall commander this time was Mei Lang Jun, and the deputy was Mei Lang Chi, with the Mei family investing heavily in Mei Lang Chi.

Having just lost a promotion opportunity, the mistakes hadn’t settled down yet; now they were urgently mobilized.

Mei Lang Chi got off the car and gave Han Yi a disdainful look before approaching Han Yi, saying, "Are you satisfied now? Everybody knows you’re part of the Mei family."

Han Yi smirked mockingly, "You must be scared of me joining the Mei family, right? I’ve clearly stated before, I don’t care about entering your Mei family. Now you’re just daydreaming. You can go home and tell Mei Shuping not to daydream every day... As for you, you should be grateful to have a good father. He cleans up for you so well, otherwise, you’d be in jail by now."

Mei Lang Chi instantly realized Han Yi was behind the photo scandal, his face contorting into anger, "Han Yi, this isn’t over between us, just you wait."

Han Yi curled his lips, ignoring him, and followed his team to the temporary resting area.

While the two were conversing, Mei Lang Jun continually observed from the side, leaving after Han Yi walked away.

Mei Lang Jun approached Mei Lang Chi, saying, "Don’t target Han Yi anymore; the family knows everything now and your actions will only disappoint the elders further."

Mei Lang Chi, hearing Mei Lang Jun’s words, was fueled with anger, "Even you’re siding with him now?" He spoke self-mockingly, nodding his head, and stepped back two paces, "He’s just a bastard child; why do any of you value him over me?"

"Mei Lang Chi, jealousy has blinded you; abandoning your wife and secretly harming your half-brother. Act after act, none worthy of a true man. Wake up, reflect on what you’re doing; what significance do these actions hold?"

"It might be insignificant to you, but to me, it’s a fatal blow. Do you understand having always admired and respected my father, only for him to act this way? Can you fathom a once-loving father, focused on finding a more remarkable son, someone who has surpassed me? While I, the legitimate son, am treated like an abandoned stray. The family is all about that bastard child, leaving me ignored."

Mei Lang Jun shook his head at his unfamiliar cousin with a frown, "This is just your skewed thinking, trapped in negativity; nobody’s ignoring you within our family. Besides... Han Yi has made it clear, he doesn’t care about the Mei family, nor does he regard Uncle as a father. Xiao Chi can be at ease, but if you cause more trouble, don’t blame me for being harsh. Oh, and your new wife, let her stay hidden; don’t blame me for being impolite otherwise," Mei Lang Jun’s mind flashed back to Tao Jia’s strained expression, her image tugging at his heart.

He told Tao Jia that such a man wasn’t worth it, she shouldn’t grieve over someone undeserved.

Tao Jia was bewildered by his words, leaving him awkward; indeed, saying that to his former sister-in-law made the situation paradoxical.

He couldn’t reconcile it but felt for her seeing her in such distress.

"You..." Mei Lang Chi watched angrily as Mei Lang Jun walked away, leaving him feeling stifled.

...

The temporary camp was set up in a concealed area near the highway in Great Wilderness Mountain. This site consisted of mountains, making it easy to conceal over a hundred temporary accommodations stationed here.

Before their arrival, scouts had surveyed the area for days, understanding the basic layout. There was a village with over a dozen households whose residents depended on the mountains for livelihood, hindered by unmade roads, where a trip down from the mountain took a whole day. Therefore, life there wasn’t easy.

But due to the secrecy, a gang had taken over. It was said that their leader hailed from the village, benefiting the community, thus integrating the villagers into their gang. Rashly intruding would mean suffering losses.

The village possessed significant combat strength, and nearly all the old and young women in it wielded weapons, none or to be trifled with. Due to the scattered houses amidst natural forests and cliffs, often hidden, unfamiliar individuals could easily overlook their hideout.

Mei Lang Jun with several leaders and Captain Zhang studied the map, realizing that entering the mountain via the main road posed substantial risks, being likely guarded by those gang’s secret operatives. Previously, Captain Zhang and others infiltrated their base under disguise, gathering ample intelligence about their hideout. On the return, they narrowly escaped detection, with numerous roadblocks and doubled patrols alerting predisposing them.

Now there was only one way in, deviating from the main path to enter from gentle slopes. Beware of sentinels stationed every fifty meters; advancing during the night between these posts could ensure a stealthy entry.

After devising the plan, Mei Lang Chi briefed everyone, "Mei and Captain Zhang will lead reconnaissance. Their defenses make them highly vigilant; we must act swiftly to avert future woes. Old Zhang, can you guarantee success this time?"

Captain Zhang confidently replied, "Our member obtained precise intelligence confirming the leader’s return with a squad. Three cars entered through the sole entry this morning."

Following the plan’s initiation, everyone located their spots, promptly executing their tasks.

Here, Liao Ye stationed Han Yi and another skilled You Pei at the main road entrance.

...

Han Yi and You Pei stealthily positioned themselves at two vantage points near the ambush site, securing optimal observation angles.

After confirming only two personnel stationed above,

Han Yi deftly seized the moment and swiftly neutralized both individuals.
