Chapter 1636: Chasing the Wind to Earn Merit

Qiu Mu tapped her daughter's forehead: "Alright, stop thinking about other things. As for how I know so clearly, naturally your sister-in-law mentioned it to me before."

Qiu Shaofeng caught the earliest bus back to the city the next morning, didn't even go home, and went straight to his workplace.

Not long after arriving at the unit, he received a call from Xia Qiu: "You're back?"

Qiu Shaofeng made a light "Hmm" sound.

Seeing he only replied with a "Hmm," Xia Qiu on the other end of the phone thought Grandpa Qiu had been badly knocked down: "What's wrong? How is Grandpa's condition?"

Qiu Shaofeng didn't want to tell his wife about Shao Cheng's plotting at this moment, fearing it would affect her mood: "Wife, Grandpa is fine. He fell a few days ago but didn't break any bones. Don't worry."

"I have matters to attend to here, so I won't talk to you for now. If you want to know anything, I'll explain in detail tonight."

At the military family compound, Liu Chuxue was preparing to hang out quilts when she heard Zui Feng's barking.

She hadn't seen him in many days and truly missed him: "Zui Feng, you're finally back. Did you get hurt?"

Saying this, she squatted down and hugged Zui Feng as he ran over, patting him up and down. After checking him thoroughly, her eyes turned red: "You suffered a lot going out this time. I'll make something delicious for you to recover later. By then, we'll still have the handsomest dog."

Seeing she finished checking, Zui Feng immediately got excited, pouncing on Liu Chuxue and licking her face. The two of them played with great joy.

Just then, people from the dog training team accompanied the two public security officers who had previously borrowed the dog, walking in: "Comrade Xiao."

While Liu Chuxue spoke with them, she didn't let go of Zui Feng: "Zui Feng has lost quite a bit of weight."

She couldn't say anything else, but her heart ached for Zui Feng; being borrowed for such a long time, he must have encountered danger countless times.

The two public security officers said nothing more and immediately saluted Liu Chuxue: "Comrade Xiao, Zui Feng is very smart. This mission was impossible without his contribution, and he saved our people from danger several times. He is truly excellent."

Liu Chuxue hugged Zui Feng and looked at them: "He has always been excellent, that is beyond doubt, otherwise you wouldn't have come to seek his assistance. However, in the future, don't set your sights on him again. I want him to stay peacefully with me."

Those two originally wanted to try persuading Comrade Xiao to part with him, but seeing her attitude, they didn't dare bring it up again.

One of the public security officers handed over a document envelope: "This is the reward for Zui Feng's mission this time. Please keep it safe."

Liu Chuxue didn't open it, only looking down at Zui Feng: "He has lost quite a bit of weight during this period; indeed, he really needs proper nourishment."

This was money earned by Zui Feng with his life; she wouldn't make decisions for him, but this sum of money would definitely be spent entirely on Zui Feng.

Zui Feng seemed to understand her intentions; his tail wagged so fast it almost created a blur. She looked at him with amusement: "Alright, stop wagging. Be careful you don't wag out sparks and get roasted."

After speaking, thinking of that scene, Liu Chuxue laughed loudly.

Zui Feng got angry now; his eyes looked mischievous, making Liu Chuxue laugh even harder.

Now Zui Feng was truly angry; he went straight back to his doghouse, showing only his rear end.

Liu Chuxue was stunned and immediately started her campaign to coax the dog: "Zui Feng, are you really angry? I was just joking with you, it was a figure of speech."

After coaxing for a long time with no response from Zui Feng, she could only stick her head into the doghouse, only to find the fellow had actually fallen asleep, leaving her torn between laughter and tears.

But seeing him like this, Liu Chuxue couldn't help feeling some regret; she shouldn't have teased him so much, letting him fall asleep while still upset.

How exhausted must he have been to fall asleep instantly?
