Back to the 70s: My Wife is Both Fierce and Crazy

Chapter 191 Returning Home to Recuperate
Although he had woken up long ago, he had been in a daze. This was the first time she had seen him so clear-headed after waking up.

"Just wake up, just wake up."

Because of his injuries, she didn't dare to go too close. She just stood in front of him, took his outstretched hand, and said, "Are you hungry? I made you some nourishing soup. Would you like some?"

He would unconsciously use his brain as soon as he woke up, so Bai Jing was worried that his brain might hurt after so much time had passed.

It's still better to replenish it.

Jiang Chen nodded; at that moment, his mind was indeed a little dizzy.

The casserole dish wasn't big; even after drinking it all, it only yielded a little over one bowl of soup.

Because he can't eat hard foods yet, Bai Jing didn't let him eat the ginseng or anything else in the soup. She planned to take it back and stew it again later to dissolve all the medicinal properties.

Seeing that Jiang Chen could eat, Shu Lindong and Zhang Shuo were relieved.

"Take good care of yourself and don't worry about team matters. We're still here for you." Shu Lindong patted his arm to reassure him.

Jiang Chen nodded and replied hoarsely, "Okay."

Zhang Shuo knew it was time for them to leave. "Take good care of yourself. I'll be waiting for you to come back and have a go with me."

Jiang Chen didn't answer him this time, but instead glared at him as if he were a defeated opponent.

This action infuriated Zhang Shuo. "Hey, don't push your luck. I was just letting you win. Do you really think you can beat me?"

Bai Jing held Jiang Chen's hand and smiled as she watched him look down on his comrade.

"Alright, what are you yelling about? If you're going to get hit, stand up straight. If you lose, you have to practice. Do you think yelling will make you win?" Shu Lindong slapped Zhang Shuo across the face.

"Don't disturb Xiao Jiang's recovery here. Let's go back."

After reprimanding his subordinates, Leader Shu looked at Bai Jing with a warm smile and said, "I'll leave it to Comrade Bai to work hard from now on."

"It's no trouble at all, it's what I should do." Bai Jing smiled slightly, looking at Jiang Chen with deep affection in her eyes.

After seeing the two off, Bai Jing finally had time to have a proper talk with Jiang Chen.

"Do you know how scared you were? When I came here, you were lying there without moving. I was almost scared to death by you."

Jiang Chen held her hand tightly. "Don't cry, I'm fine."

"Nothing's wrong. You have no idea how scary you were back then. If I hadn't had a strong heart, you might not be here today."

Indeed, in that situation, most people probably wouldn't want to have anything to do with him.

"Luckily it's you." Jiang Chen understood what she meant and felt very fortunate. "Luckily, I have you."

"Hmph, dream on. Come back with me as soon as you're discharged from the hospital. Don't even think about going back to the army until you're fully recovered." This guy is truly righteous; he goes wherever there's danger.

He won't realize he's no longer human until he's taught a lesson.

Jiang Chen wanted to say he wouldn't go back and wanted her to stay, but after hearing what she said, he swallowed his words.

“My mother said you should go back and get engaged first, otherwise she’ll have to find me a new partner.”

He'd better go back to see his mother-in-law obediently, otherwise his young wife will be in danger.

"go back."

Seeing how obedient he was, Bai Jing's smile deepened. "Hmph, you're smart to know what's good for you."

He was still a patient after all, and he got tired after talking for a while.

Bai Jing removed one of his pillows and helped him lie flat on his back. "Go to sleep."

They thought they could go back once Jiang Chen was able to get out of bed.

Unexpectedly, just as Jiang Chen's doctor said he could go home to recuperate, people from the military arrived.

Without saying a word, they took the two of them back to their unit. Bai Jing was completely speechless.

Upon arriving at the military base, she was assigned to Jiang Chen's house there.

Because of Jiang Chen's special status, even though he is single, he has his own house, a two-bedroom apartment, which is no worse than those of platoon leaders and company commanders.

Of course, given the date Jiang Chen enlisted, he was entitled to housing; moreover, given his current position, he was also entitled to housing.

There are requirements for housing allocation in the military; not everyone is eligible. For example, there may be requirements such as a certain number of years of service, a certain position, or reaching a certain age, such as being over 35 years old.

Bai Jing waited for three days, during which she went to the Imperial Guards' Office every day to inquire, but unfortunately they didn't know where Jiang Chen was either.

I can't even get in touch with him.

On the fourth day, Jiang Chen finally returned. Not only did he return, but Zhang Shuo and Shu Lindong also came.

After they sat down, it was Shu Lindong who spoke, and Bai Jing finally understood why they had come back.

"No, I don't understand the interrogation methods used in your military. I'm afraid I can't help with this." She never expected that their return would be to ask her to help interrogate those moles.

She wouldn't dare get involved in something so serious.

These are all matters of national importance; she has no intention of entering the classified system.

"Comrade Bai, don't be modest. We heard about your abilities from other people. Those people only want to die, and they just won't say anything no matter what we do. That's why we wanted you to help us. Don't worry, we won't let you work for nothing."

Shu Lindong was going crazy. Jiang Chen and his team had suffered heavy losses this time, with the most casualties among all missions. If they still couldn't remove those nails, wouldn't those people have sacrificed themselves in vain?

Therefore, they dare not let those who have been arrested die. In the past, they would have had plenty of ways to disregard life and death.

Can
They were truly powerless at that moment.

"No, it's not because of that." When Shu Lindong mentioned the reward, Bai Jing's face couldn't help but turn red; she really didn't mean it that way.

It is an honor for her to be able to help the country, but she is afraid that she will not be able to help.

Ugh.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to help you in the end and will disappoint you. I imagine you've already checked my past. I haven't been in the public security system for very long, and I really don't have much experience in handling cases." She's just incredibly talented.

She was aware of the rumors circulating outside, saying that she was a fool with good fortune.

She doesn't mind having this title, because that way, people can interpret any unexpected things she does as good luck.

She didn't want to be watched all the time.

But the military is a place she can't afford to reveal the slightest flaw; she hasn't decided yet whether to tell the government what's going on.

"We know about this, Comrade Bai Jing. I sincerely hope you can help us this once. After all, we can't let those soldiers die in vain." As he spoke, tears streamed down Shu Lindong's face.

Bai Jing sensed his sadness and felt sad as well.

can.

She was really not prepared.

After Bai Jing sat down, Jiang Chen held her hand without saying a word, respecting her choice.

Bai Jing felt Bai Shang's strength. She glanced at Jiang Chen and noticed that his eyes were also red. She knew that they were both grieving for the soldiers who had died unjustly.

"Shall I give it a try?" she asked Jiang Chen uncertainly. "If I don't succeed, will you blame me?"

At this point, she also knew that she could not remain uninvolved.

Jiang Chen raised his slightly reddened eyes, a hint of determination flashing in them, "I don't blame you, and I won't blame you."

She understood what he meant.
