Chapter 1264: Chapter 1283: Worry
“Wife, I miss you,” Huo Beijiang suddenly subdued his emotions, his voice low and elegant, faintly carrying an urgency that made one’s heart tremble. “We’ve only been apart for two days, and I already miss you. I miss you so much…”
Heaven knew his anxiety, afraid the mission would take too long and delay too much ti. He feared he might not live to return, to protect Nan Fei for a lifeti. He was even more afraid that during his absence, Nan Fei might not be well taken care of.
What he feared the most was that by the ti he returned, Nan Fei might no longer be there…
Huo Beijiang closed his eyes, took a deep, suppressed breath, and hurriedly said, “Take good care of yourself, wait for to co back…” After finishing his words, he hastily hung up the phone.
He was afraid that if he continued, his disguise would be seen through.
The atmosphere in the communication room was so oppressive that everyone breathed carefully, all ears pricked up to secretly pay attention to Major General Huo’s movents. However, he stood by the telephone for a long ti without any disturbance.
The others were also on tenterhooks, waiting until Lu Jin ca to fetch soone before they followed and left.
Once the footsteps had faded, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, so chests heaving violently from holding their breaths just before.
“I vaguely heard before that Major General Huo had gotten married, turns out it’s true.”
“Ah~ Another top-quality man off the list.”
“Yes! I didn’t expect Major General Huo and sister-in-law to have such a good relationship.”
“I’ve always said that a man as outstanding and handso as Major General Huo, if not married at all, once married, would definitely be a ho-loving, wife-doting good man. Those who are less capable themselves are more likely to have lifestyle issues and be unfaithful to their marriage.”
“True, in Major General Huo’s words, ‘Ugly and still acting up, an eyesore.'”
The female soldiers discussed vividly while the male soldiers next to them felt awkward.
Finally, soone said, “It seems like Major General Huo is really worried about his sister-in-law!”
“That’s for sure, the most dangerous part of this mission is on Major General Huo, it’s almost a life or death situation, with an extrely high danger level.”
At that statent, the room’s atmosphere suddenly turned ice cold. Everyone’s mood beca sowhat oppressive since they were all veterans of the Southeast Military Region, having spent over four years on the fleet, knowing Huo Beijiang for no short ti. Although they were not very close, when Major General Huo was still captain of Snow Eagle, he was the most popular figure among the female soldiers.
Now, watching him, who had beco a senior leader, personally go to the combat zone, they all felt quite distressed.
“According to Major General Huo’s rank, he shouldn’t need to personally participate in front-line missions anymore,” soone grumbled.
“It’s our uselessness.”
Everyone felt quite guilty for a mont, the Southeast Military Region also boasted many talented individuals, yet the most dangerous and crucial task was left to Major General Huo, who had moved to the Northern Military District. This also showed their inability in the Southeast Military Region!
No wonder Major General Huo seed reluctant to leave his wife on the phone, probably because it was a newlywed situation!

“What?” A sudden furious question echoed inside the villa, startling a group of people who all dared not speak, each bowing their head, not making eye contact with the furious Leng Peixi.
“How is that possible? The person is missing? Can’t be found?”
“Miss, the people we sent could only keep limited tabs on Huo Beijiang to begin with, usually only knowing his rough whereabouts when he appeared in public. But since the day before yesterday, we haven’t found him, nor have we seen his car on the road back to Jilan Mountain from the city.”
