Chapter 275: Chen Xun Goes on a Mission

An Yinan sensed Chen Xun's concern and chuckled, "I'm adjusting well, don't worry about me here."

They have their own marital home, and if she were unhappy, she would move out.

In fact, she had already proposed moving out, but Big Aunt and Grandmother strongly objected, so she hadn't moved out yet.

The Military District Compound is quite remote, and she wastes a lot of time every time she travels back and forth.

Moreover, one must undergo inspections to enter the compound; those are the regulations!

Hearing her clear, melodic voice, the sharp lines of Chen Xun's face softened unconsciously, and his eyes held tenderness.

"I am going on a mission tomorrow," Chen Xun said.

The first thing An Yinan did upon returning to Beijing was to send him a letter of safety; calculating the time, it had not yet reached the Northeast Camp.

Chen Xun was afraid he wouldn't be able to receive the letter of safety immediately, which was why he had called.

"Can't you tell me?" An Yinan asked.

Chen Xun chuckled, "I cannot!"

He is a soldier; even when talking in his sleep, he must control his will and never mention a single word about his mission.

This is the basic discipline of a soldier.

"Take care of yourself; I will wait for your safety call," An Yinan said to Chen Xun, no longer mentioning any information about the mission.

After Chen Xun agreed, he said to An Yinan, "Don't be too busy. You cannot keep your own strings pulled too tight; only with a balance of tension and relaxation can things last."

Without him there to supervise, he was truly worried about An Yinan's daily routine.

"Don't worry, there aren't many missions over there now. Unless it's a particularly important or difficult mission, other ordinary tasks no longer pass through my hands," An Yinan said.

The two chatted intermittently for twenty minutes before Chen Xun hung up the phone with great reluctance.

If he weren't about to participate in an emergency mission, he wouldn't have applied to make this call; the time for making calls in the Military is limited.

An Yinan had just finished saying she wouldn't take on any more missions, but she didn't expect Fang Hong to come looking for her that afternoon.

"You have to step up this time," Fang Hong said.

An Yinan rubbed her brow; she had been planning to spend this time properly looking for a house and a shop to prepare for the future.

She didn't expect Big Aunt to come looking for her so soon.

"What do you need me to do?" An Yinan did not decline.

She had checked in advance; if Big Aunt had any other options, she probably wouldn't have come to find her.

Since she had come to her, there must be an urgent reason.

"University is starting, and there is no one to translate some mechanical textbooks, but with the start of school imminent, I can't find anyone else," Fang Hong said, feeling very helpless.

Although the number of translators is constantly increasing, some professional books can only be translated by a few specific people.

Other majors are fine, but for the mechanical major, the Compilation Bureau can only look to An Yinan.

Last time someone tried to translate them, but it was full of loopholes and the accuracy rate was too low; in the end, An Yinan had to spend a long time correcting it, so it would have been better to just let her translate it directly.

"Where is the translation location?" An Yinan asked.

These textbooks were likely brought back from abroad by patriots, and they would not be leaked to the outside before the official start of school.

"Qingmu University," Fang Hong said.

This set of textbooks is not only used by Qingmu University, but Qingmu University is the most convenient place for translation relative to the Military District Compound.

Moreover, the mechanical major is considered a core major at Qingmu University.

"When does the mission start?" An Yinan said.

Fang Hong looked at An Yinan and said helplessly, "The sooner, the better."

The admission notices have already been issued, and the admission process has been finalized, but the teaching materials are missing.

If the translation of the teaching materials isn't finished in a day, the entire Ministry of Education won't be at ease.

Furthermore, after the translation is done, they need to be illustrated, typeset, and printed.

All the post-production work is waiting for the translation.

"Understood, I will report to Qingmu University tomorrow," An Yinan said.

Fang Hong gave the contact information to An Yinan; this time it was a familiar partner again, Professor Zhang!

"Nan Nan, thank you for your hard work," Fang Hong said to An Yinan before leaving.

An Yinan smiled and shook her head, "I am more than happy to be able to make a small contribution to the country."

Although it disrupted her plans and vacation, she truly did not say words she didn't mean.

When the country needs her, she will go without hesitation.

Fang Hong left.

Grandmother knew about Big Aunt's work, and the Yun Family also had a rough guess about An Yinan's identity; when they were talking, Grandmother deliberately left space for the two of them.

It wasn't until Fang Hong greeted her and left that Grandmother walked out of the room.

"Busy again?" Grandmother asked.

An Yinan helped Grandmother sit on the sofa, "I expect to be busy for a while."

There are quite a few mechanical textbooks; if she translates them all, she probably won't have any time left before the new year.

Fang Hong is a very busy person, even busier than Yun Fei, and the Compilation Bureau is a state-secret unit.

But the fact that she came to find An Yinan this time shows how important An Yinan is.

And everyone still remembers An Yinan's secret mission from last time, which lasted a month.

"It's good to be busy," Grandmother patted An Yinan's hand and said softly.

There was no complaint, only a faint sense of heartache.

This child is only twenty-one years old, yet she bears so much.

An Yinan leaned on Grandmother's shoulder and closed her eyes, the corners of her lips curling up slightly; this must be the feeling of family.

Early the next morning, Yun Shu drove An Yinan directly to Qingmu University, where Professor Zhang was already pacing anxiously at the entrance.

Upon seeing An Yinan, he widened his eyes, "Teacher An, what brings you to Qingmu University today? I'll have someone show you around in a bit; you were so busy last time, you didn't have time to look around."

An Yinan waved her hand, "I don't think I'll have much time to look around this time either, Professor Zhang; your partner for this project is also me."

Professor Zhang was even more surprised; the Compilation Bureau had only said they had arranged someone and specifically designated them to coordinate with him.

Fang Hong knew about the relationship between An Yinan and the Zhang family, so to make things easier for An Yinan and reduce the time needed for adjustment, she had specifically chosen someone An Yinan was familiar with.

"Translation?" Professor Zhang looked around cautiously before asking in a low voice.

An Yinan nodded helplessly.

At this moment, a storm was raging in Professor Zhang's heart.

He had always known of Teacher An's success; after all, the person who could create a Mind Map had already done enough with just one project to be recorded in history.

But only now did he realize that one project was merely the tip of the iceberg for Teacher An.

"Follow me." After confirming, Professor Zhang hurriedly led An Yinan into the school.

He then brought An Yinan to a Little Red Building, "It's the holidays now, so all unauthorized personnel have been cleared out of this building."

"The school has issued an order; as for the translation, I am the only one working with you."

"Typesetting and data organization are in another room; we will proceed simultaneously, otherwise there really won't be enough time."
