Bab 1944: Fate

After handing the things in his hands over to Xiao Xu, Zhai Sheng gave Xiao Xu a look, asking Xiao Xu to pay attention to that figure who had been following him. Xiao Xu looked around and noticed that person as well and nodded at Zhai Sheng, telling him that he would handle the matter.

After placing the things in the car, Xiao Xu said to Qiao Nan, "Auntie Qiao, I have some family matters. I don't think I'll be able to send you and the chief back. You know that the chief is injured and I worry about the chief going back alone. Can you help me out and accompany the chief back? I'll take over once I return. How's that? The military tasked me with taking care of the chief because of their trust in me. I don't trust anyone else, so you have to help me, Sister Qiao. Otherwise, I won't be able to account for my superiors and comrades when I return."
