Chapter 293: Chapter 292: Let Go of That Girl (19) Chapter 293: Chapter 292: Let Go of That Girl (19) Her heart gave a fierce shudder, “Tang Zelin is back?”

Guozi didn’t have time to explain and came running up, drenched in sweat. Seeing Su Shu, he hurriedly said, “Sister-in-law! Please come down the mountain with me, the group captain is about to give out!”

Hearing this, Su Shu’s face turned pale. She quickly removed her apron and turned to pick up Xiao’ai’s school bag. As she was packing her brushes and paper, she explained to Xiao’ai.

“Xiao’ai, be good, be obedient. Your aunt has to go out to take care of something. We will take you to Grandpa Ge’s house first, is that okay? I’ll come back after I’m finished with my work.”

Xiao’ai nodded hurriedly, without any hesitation.

Su Shu scooped her up, locked the door, passed by the Ge Family’s house to briefly explain the situation, and after leaving Xiao’ai, she hurried down the mountain with Guozi.

All the way down, her face was ashen, and she didn’t even dare to ask Guozi what exactly had happened to Tang Zelin.

He was so strong, how could he be about to give out?

The Apocalypse had just begun; he couldn’t be in danger.

Su Shu’s mind was a mess. Thankfully, it was downhill, so running wasn’t too taxing, but she nearly fell because of the rush. Fortunately, Guozi, who was beside her, had quick reflexes and supported her. Like this, it wasn’t long before she burst into the military hospital’s entrance like a whirlwind.

Just as Wang Xie had finished bandaging a patient and was coming out, Su Shu rushed up to him, grabbing his arm, her voice trembling despite her effort to stay calm.

“Doctor Wang, where is Tang Zelin? How is he, where is he hurt?”

Wang Xie, overwhelmed by her abrupt approach, staggered back two steps to steady himself. At first, he didn’t hear her clearly, but once he did, his face showed surprise.

“Old Tang is fine, what’s wrong?”

Who said he was in trouble? He was just jumping around, saying he had to go back to fulfill a task.

Su Shu was dumbfounded: “…”

Standing behind her, Guozi exclaimed with a puzzled “Huh”, “Doctor Wang, where is our group captain?”

“He’s gone back with some people!”

Wang Xie looked at Guozi and then at the utterly shocked Su Shu. His gaze flickered as he realized what happened and couldn’t help but glare at Guozi, “Did you say the wrong thing when you were sent to fetch someone?”

Scratching his head, Guozi replied, “Wasn’t it because the group captain was about to give out that he sent me up the mountain to find my sister-in-law?”

Wang Xie really was…

At a loss for words, he couldn’t help but scold, “You said your group captain was about to give out without explaining the circumstances, who wouldn’t be scared to death by that!”

Guozi’s face, having been scolded, turned red with embarrassment and awkwardly said to Su Shu, still not recovered from the shock, “Sister-in-law, when I said the group captain couldn’t hold up anymore, I didn’t mean he was injured, it’s… it’s that.”

Wang Xie, hands in his pockets, smiled and finished the sentence for him.

“Old Tang went out on a mission and rescued a few women, one of whom clung to him. Driven to distraction, he sent Guozi up to get you.”

Su Shu’s eyes widened even further, “He wasn’t injured?”

“No,” Wang Xie replied with a squinting, friendly smile.

“Truly?”

“Truer than pearls.”

After a long while, Su Shu finally let out a long sigh of relief, nearly losing her balance.

“Careful,” Wang Xie extended a hand to steady her.

“It’s good that he’s okay.”

Wang Xie’s eyes shimmered slightly, heh, Old Tang’s young wife really knew how to worry for someone.

Learning that Tang Zelin hadn’t been seriously hurt, Su Shu finally let go of the tension she had carried down the mountain.

However, before she could relax for long, she suddenly realized something, her voice suddenly rising, “What did you say just now? Who’s been entangled?”

Wang Xie froze for a moment, glancing at Guozi beside him, whose expression matched his own — that of “you only just realized?”

“The group captain has been driven mad by a woman clinging to him.”

…

Su Shu didn’t know how she managed to race from the hospital to the military camp.

She only remembered that upon hearing Tang Zelin had been clung to by someone else, her entire demeanor shifted on the spot.

Who?

Who dared to cling to her man?

Tang Zelin was hers! Hers!

They were married, officially stamped!

At that moment, she was infinitely grateful that Tang Zelin had whisked her away to register their marriage, allowing her to justifiably rush over and “declare her sovereignty!”
