Chapter 811: I Would Rather Take Off My Military Uniform Than Go Back!
Xie Xuning opened the door and got out of the car. He stood among the crowd that formed the human barrier and looked at the young children, who were nearly freezing to death.
White frost had already formed on their eyebrows.
“Chief, you have a call.”
A middle-aged man came forward from the human barrier. He passed the satellite phone to Xie Xuning in a polite manner.
Xie Xuning held the satellite phone against his ears and spoke, “Xie Xuning speaking.”
“Xuning, it’s Li Hang.”
Xie Xuning frowned and roared into the phone, “Li Hang, what’s the matter? Must I go back now? I have something important that I have to do right now!”
“Yes, this is very important.”
Xie Xuning’s frown deepened after hearing what Li Hang said. He knew Li Hang too well.
He was not the kind of person who would mess around unreasonably.
Something definitely happened if he called and said something was up.
Still, that had nothing to do with him!
He was only interested in finding his wife.
“I have something that I must do now too. Li Hang, I have no choice but to take off my military uniform if you insist for me to return now.”
Li Hang looked at Xie Qian helplessly. Xie Xuning was still as stubborn as ever when Li Hang already personally called asking him to come back.
“Xie Xuning, you’re a soldier. It’s your duty to obey orders.”
The corner of Xie Xuning’s lips curved upwards slightly after hearing Li Hang’s response. A faint smile appeared on his face.
Obeying orders?
He would obey.
Xie Xuning removed his belongings in front of the guards and the human barrier, then threw everything into the car.
“Fine, you guys can go back now. I’m not your Chief now. I’m just an ordinary man.”
I am just an ordinary man now.
I’m just an ordinary man that anyone could find.
The guards were frightened to the point that they were almost in tears. “Chief, you’ll catch a cold!”
“Get out of my way!”
Xie Xuning stood before the human barrier alone. He was determined to get past them.
“Get out of my way!”
The guards chose to stand by Xie Xuning’s side even in that situation.
They were his guards.
They would stand by the side of their Chief wherever he went.
Consequently, those who were blocking the way could only compromise. They split up from the center and gradually made way for Xie Xuning.
He went back into the car and looked at the flying shadows outside the window in silence.
One’s life could end so abruptly. He didn’t have time to run forever.
If he did, then he would eventually see the day when there was nowhere left for him to run to.
Xie Xuning was heading for Shenhai City.
The car drove into the boundaries of Shenhai City.
The scenery outside the car window became drastically different from before.
The modernity and prosperity of Shenhai City were reflected on the windows of Xie Xuning’s car.
Xie Xuning closed his eyes slightly. He was not in the mood to admire the sceneries.
The car drove slowly towards an American-style residential area. They were stopped by the security guard at the entrance.
They could only enter the residential area after one of the guards got off the car for registration.
Luxury cars were parked along the streets of the residential area.
Most were already asleep during that hour.
Besides the street lights in the residential area, only a few households had their lights on.
“Chief, we’ve arrived!”
“Okay.”
Xie Xuning opened the door and got off the car. He raised his head and looked at the household located on the second floor.
“Who is it?”
Xie Xuning stood by the door and knocked.
A woman’s voice that sounded impatient could be heard from the bungalow.
“Why are you knocking on the door at this hour of the night?”
Jiao Hongmei stood behind the door and glanced outside through the peephole.
