Cheng Su saw Qi Taiguo off from the military base, and reminded him to take care of his health, as it was the time of melting snow, brutally cold, and catching a cold was not something to be taken lightly.
"I know, Iām not a child anymore. Rather itās you, when Iām not around, you should lock the doors and windows tightly, and donāt come back too late at night," Qi Taiguo said, "If youāre scared, why not ask elder sister to stay over for a few days? Or have Xiao Ya keep you company?"
"Our compound is a military family area, are there even thieves?" Cheng Su said with playful annoyance.
Qi Taiguo touched his nose and said, "Iām just worried about you being alone at night and getting scared."
Cheng Su smiled.
"Then, when youāre at home, pay extra attention. If anything seems off, ask the neighbors for help. Also, be aware when youāre out, and remember to have your meals on time. Donāt be so busy that you skip meals, as your health is the most important," Qi Taiguo continued to instruct, "This time Iām going out, based on past routine, Iāll return in at least half a month, or at most one month. However, since weāll be training in the wilderness under tough conditions, I may not be able to call back home."
"Mm, take care yourself," Cheng Su replied, sending him off to the entrance of the military base, then gave him a push and pouted.
Qi Taiguo followed her gaze and his expression darkened, "Donāt pay attention to her."
That was Chiang Qing, standing in the distance, watching the couple!
Now that he saw Chiang Qing, Qi Taiguo couldnāt help but warn again, "This woman seems a bit crazy to me, her mind is not right. While Iām gone, donāt have a direct confrontation with her, in case she does something unpredictable in a fit of madness."
"Sheās a military doctor after all!" Cheng Su raised an eyebrow, "And yet you call her a lunatic."
Qi Taiguo snorted coldly, "Even if she were the president, whatās the use if she doesnāt understand human language? Those who donāt understand human speech are either lunatics or beasts."
Having been nominated to the replacement personnel list, Qi Taiguo felt not only that Chiang Qing was trouble that could not be avoided or evaded, but that even attempting to avoid her would still lead to unjust troubles.
And because of this incident, he was even more inclined to keep his distance from her.
So when he returned from training, he would have to find a way to have this woman transferred away. Otherwise, she would be like a live bomb, never knowing when it might explode.
In the end, it all came down to his own rank being too low, insufficient to contend with the Chiang Family. Consequently, he could only be the one being arranged, if he were also a person of high position, then...
Qi Taiguo clenched his fist and glanced at Cheng Su by his side, pursing his lips.
The Chiang Family had first targeted him, and now, having been foiled once, he didnāt know if Jiang Conghe would become furious from the humiliation. Next time, would they target someone close to him?
Chiang Qing was crazy, and so were the Chiangs. If they did something rash, he...
Qi Taiguoās heart clenched, and subconsciously grabbed Cheng Suās arm, saying, "Anyway, you must be very careful, always wary of Chiang Qing, and absolutely avoid a direct confrontation with her."
Cheng Su saw his serious expression, and said, "You..."
"Susu, I am only a company commander now, I canāt match the Chiang Familyās background. If they really take action, I..." Iām afraid I wonāt be able to protect you.
Qi Taiguo swallowed these words, understanding the importance of power. He knew he had to keep climbing higher, to have enough means and power to protect the people around him.
For now, he was nothing more than an ant that could be crushed with a single finger by others.
"Donāt worry, Iāll be careful," Cheng Su reassured, patting his shoulder.
Qi Taiguo exhaled, and after they parted, he made a phone call to Ning Ge.
