Chapter 1334: Finally No Longer Guarding an Empty Room Alone

~4 min read 752 words

Liu Chuxue did not know that the moment she left the city, the warnings she had sent out caused an uproar; except for one household whose gatekeeper thought it was a prank and threw the warning notice away, everyone else feared trouble from their own negligence, so they simply made the trip, fulfilled their duties, and left the judgment to their superiors.

One hour later, the news reached directly within the Red Wall.

With warnings received in so many places and such a grand display, even if someone was deliberately causing trouble, it could not be ignored.

Thus, the relevant departments quickly organized five teams to depart for Tang City under the guise of research; their mission was to secretly observe whether the situation mentioned in the warnings would occur, and they had to stay there until after the twenty-eighth, ensuring the matter reached a conclusion before returning to the capital.

Besides that, three more teams were organized to investigate today's events within the city, secretly checking whether enemy agents were deliberately causing trouble.

On the bus returning to the barracks, Liu Chuxue finally breathed a sigh of relief; regardless of the outcome later, at least she had not stood idly by and had done her best; the rest depended on the decision-makers within the Red Wall and the will of heaven.

Just as she had guessed, when she arrived home, Zhui Feng launched a frantic barrage of output, making Liu Chuxue feel extremely guilty.

She had no time to prepare dog food anymore; she took a few steps into the kitchen, directly took several two-mix flour mantou from her space, broke them into pieces, and fed them; seeing the dog eat ravenously and noticing the water bowl was completely dry, she immediately turned and went back into the kitchen.

After adding water, she was just about to reach out and stroke Zhui Feng's head, but the dog tilted its head straight away, leaving her unable to touch it, which made her laugh in frustration.

But anger aside, Zhui Feng did not make things difficult for her; after eating and drinking his fill, he directly presented Liu Chuxue with his doggy rear end, lay down to sleep, and had no intention of paying any attention to Liu Chuxue.

Liu Chuxue laughed outright, extended one finger to poke it: "Zhui Feng, you're angry; I really didn't mean it."

Zhui Feng twitched an ear, turned his head in another direction, and continued sleeping with his eyes closed.

Liu Chuxue reached out to stroke the dog's body: "This time was my fault; I guarantee this situation won't happen again in the future; even if something comes up, I will settle you down first, okay? Don't be angry."

After speaking for a long while, there was finally some movement.

The look in Zhui Feng's eyes as he gazed at Liu Chuxue was full of grievance: "Alright, alright, my Zhui Feng has been wronged."

This fellow Zhui Feng actually buried his dog head into Liu Chuxue's arms, chattered a barrage of complaints, and after receiving yet another round of comfort, he finally let Liu Chuxue off the hook, and they were reconciled.

Liu Chuxue closed the main gate, let Zhui Feng go, and allowed him to move freely in the courtyard.

She was simply too exhausted and prepared to return to her room to rest.

When Fu Yan Cheng returned, he saw the main gate locked from the inside.

To avoid anyone criticizing Liu Chuxue, he went directly into the courtyard next door belonging to Shen Kaiyuan.

Shen Kaiyuan was just about to ask a question when he saw the person already climb over the wall into the neighboring courtyard: "Hey, I was still standing in the courtyard; you could at least be polite to me."

He was looking up at the neighboring courtyard, waiting for Fu Yan Cheng to explain, but unexpectedly heard his own wife's voice: "What are you muttering to yourself over there all alone?"

Now even Shen Kaiyuan couldn't care about anything else: "Wife, you're back; how did it go? Is everything settled?"

Mo Ruhua smiled and nodded: "It's settled; tomorrow I will report to the school."

Shen Kaiyuan finally understood the joy Fu Yan Cheng had mentioned earlier when his wife prepared to join the army: "That's truly wonderful; from now on, I finally won't have to guard an empty room alone."

His voice was not small, frightening Mo Ruhua into rushing forward to cover his mouth: "What nonsense are you talking?"
