Jiang Wan took Chai Hongyu to a nearby restaurant. She asked Chai Hongyu about his preferences and simply ordered two bowls of noodles.

The two of them chatted about work while eating noodles, and it was very lively.

Chai Hongyu is knowledgeable and talented, and Jiang Wan has no problems chatting with him.

The two talked about the review criteria and the future development of the magazine.

After the meal, the two became more familiar with each other.

They talked and laughed on the way back, and the afternoon work was not so boring.

When Chai Hongyu finds an interesting manuscript, he will take the initiative to show it to Jiang Wan.

He would also feel regretful if he came across a manuscript with some novel ideas but poor writing style.

After spending a few days together, Jiang Wan discovered that Chai Hongyu was very capable at work, and it was indeed much easier for him to work with him.

A week later, she handed over all the reviewing tasks to Chai Hongyu and was only responsible for the final draft.

After Jiang Wan no longer had to review manuscripts, he felt a lot more relaxed.

She devoted more time to other things.

Just when the magazine was gradually getting back on track, the person Cheng Jinnian sent to follow up called the army.

The call was originally made to Cheng Jinnian, but Cheng Jinnian happened to be out on a mission.

This mission will take a long time, at least a week, and at most a month.

Cheng Jinnian had just been promoted, and this time his superiors let him lead the team alone in order to allow him to accumulate military merits.

When Cheng Jinnian and his men first set out, he always felt something was not right.

He thought something was going to go wrong during this mission, so he was extremely alert during the process.

It was precisely because of his meticulousness and vigilance that several risks were avoided during the mission.

Cheng Jinnian demonstrated his leadership ability in this mission. Because he was anxious, he successfully completed the task in just 10 days.

Even the leader went to visit him after hearing about this.

Cheng Jinnian was not as excited as usual when he was praised this time.

Because even though I've returned, the uneasiness in my heart has not completely dissipated.

After being praised by the leader at the meeting, Cheng Jinnian hurried back.

He thought about it and went back to the Communications Department. He originally wanted to call home and ask what was going on.

If nothing happened at home, why was he so anxious during this period?

Ever since his wife almost divorced him, Cheng Jinnian is most worried about family matters.

In the past, he seldom called home as he was busy with his career and ignored family matters.

Even if something really happened, it would be Wei Mingxiang who called him. Cheng Jinnian always thought that everything was fine at home.

However, he didn't expect that what Wei Mingxiang meant by "good" was that he didn't spend any of the money he sent back on his wife and children, and even sold his children. His wife was almost forced to divorce him.

If Jiang Wan hadn't suddenly come to the army, Cheng Jinnian would probably still be kept in the dark.

And referring to the times when Jiang Wan had accidents in the past, Cheng Jinnian found that he would panic every time she was about to get into trouble.

So there must be a reason why he was so flustered this time.

As soon as Cheng Jinnian arrived at the Communications Department, a soldier stopped him.

"Captain Cheng, you're finally back!"

When Cheng Jinnian heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he immediately had a bad feeling.

"Is it my family calling? Or is there something wrong at home?"

Cheng Jinnian excitedly walked forward and grabbed the soldier's shoulders.

If he didn't still have a trace of rationality, he would probably have been shaking his body right now.

"Captain Cheng, calm down a little. Calm down a little."

"The call was not from your home, nor from your relatives, but from another place."

Cheng Jinnian breathed a sigh of relief again and then asked.

"Who on earth was that caller? What did he tell you? Stop keeping me in suspense and tell me what's going on."

Cheng Jinnian was extremely anxious, and the soldier finally made his words clear.

"The call came from another place, saying that you gave him money to help keep an eye on a family, and now the family has returned!"

"What? You're back? You're back?"

Cheng Jinnian immediately remembered what happened. A look of ecstasy appeared on his face, but he quickly calmed down.

"When did the call come in? What did you tell him?"

Cheng Jinnian was so anxious that he wanted to grab the soldier by the collar. The soldier was infected by his emotions and became a little nervous as well.

"It was when you had just gone on a mission. The phone call came right after you left."

"When we first went on the mission? Wasn't that a long time ago?"

"The person who called me at that time is probably gone now."

Thinking of this, Cheng Jinnian suddenly felt a little depressed.

He has always wanted to find the boss, but has no news about him.

Now I finally got news from him, but I didn't expect that he didn't answer the call because he was on a mission.

Is the bond between them really so shallow? Is it really so difficult for them to meet?

Thinking of this, Cheng Jinnian staggered forward two steps.

After walking out, he quickly realized whether he should tell his wife about this matter.

He has used up all his previous vacation time, and he's afraid he won't be able to take any more now.

Moreover, when he came out from the leader's place, the leader said that he had completed the task well this time and would assign him another task in a few days.

This means that he will be carrying out the mission soon.

He didn't know about the child at the time, nor did he know the call came, so he agreed very readily.

If I regret now, it may be too late.

Cheng Jinnian felt a little aggrieved, so even though this was just a piece of news that was likely to be outdated, he still had to tell his wife.

As for whether his wife could find someone after going there, or whether she could get useful information, he really couldn't guarantee it.

In fact, Cheng Jinnian had told the man two phone numbers just to be on the safe side.

What a shame, the first phone number is basically gone since they moved.

The second phone number was for the military unit, but he was on a mission and didn't have time to answer the call.

So after all this, this is the situation we are in.

Cheng Jinnian scratched his head in annoyance. When he thought about the missed opportunity to find his child, he felt extremely regretful.

If I had known earlier not to carry out this task, perhaps the child would have been found by now.

After a brief moment of irritability, Cheng Jinnian quickly forced himself to calm down.

He dialed the number of Jiang Wan's magazine, and the phone rang for a while before being picked up by Jiang Wan.

"Hello, who are you?"

Jiang Wan has received too many strange calls recently, and this is the first thing he says when he answers the phone.

"Wanwan, it's me, Cheng Jinnian. I have something important to tell you."
