Although Lin An said that Xu Wanning had the means to save her life, the Xu family still did not want her to participate due to concerns about her life safety.

But the voice of persuasion is not as strong as before.

In the end, it was Xu's mother who made the final decision.

"Aning is already an adult, and she has always had her own opinion. Now that she has made a decision, we will just follow her. The big deal is that the logistics work should be done better so that she can cooperate with the people in the organization without distractions. , and catch the inner ghost as soon as possible."

Xu's mother's words were unanimously agreed.

Everyone took advantage of their positions to help Xu Wanning to the greatest extent possible.

By the time the matter was settled, it was already ten o'clock in the evening. Considering that everyone had to go to work the next day, Xu's mother asked everyone to go back.

"Lin An, please stay, I have something else to ask you."

"Okay." Lin An nodded and sat on the sofa obediently.

Xu's mother glanced at Xu's father and Xu Maoyan and his son, "You two go out first. I want to tell Lin An something very serious. It will be very inconvenient for you to be here."

"Then let's go to the kitchen."

"No!" Xu's mother refused: "You two go and stay outside the door for a while. After Lin An and I have a good talk, you can come in again."

Xu's father and Xu Maoyan didn't know what Xu's mother wanted to say to Lin An, but she was so serious that she wouldn't even let them stay in the room.

But Xu's mother always kept things straight at home, and it was obvious that Xu's mother was very anxious, so Xu's father and Xu Maoyan thoughtfully went to the yard.

"Do you want to smoke?" Xu's father handed the cigarette box to Xu Maoyan.

Xu Maoyan was stunned for a moment and asked subconsciously: "Didn't you quit smoking a long time ago?"

“Occasionally when I’m in a bad mood, I smoke one.”

Xu Maoyan responded, took one out of the box, lit it with a match, but did not smoke it, but held it between his two fingers, letting the cigarette burn little by little, and the ashes fell to the ground, blending with the soil. One body.

Xu's father took a long drag on his cigarette. Under the smoke, he asked Xu Maoyan: "Do you think I'm being unreasonable for pushing my biological daughter out to face danger alone?"

Xu Maoyan lowered his head and did not answer. His silence was the best response.

Xu's father sighed heavily and then spoke eloquently.

"The leader told me about this before Aning entered the base. I refused at that time. Since ancient times, it is difficult to have both loyalty and filial piety, and it is important to take care of the overall situation and one's own family, so it is not a matter of control. Difficult things?"

"I am wearing these clothes, and my position has made my life a lot more convenient. Logically speaking, I should agree regardless of anything. After all, it is for the sake of the country and the people."

"But I am also a father. How can I be willing to let the daughter I owe to take risks? If I am the one who wants to take risks, I will rush to the battlefield without hesitation, but Aning cannot."

Xu Maoyan had already sketched a picture in his mind, which was the scene where Xu's father argued with the leader for Xu Wanning.

He couldn't help but look at Xu's father and asked: "In that case, why did you agree? Also, how did Aning know about this? Did you tell her?"

Father Xu shook his head and denied this statement.

"On the first day An Ning stepped into the base, he already discovered a mole with abnormal behavior and told Mr. Yuan about it. He happened to meet Mao Qing again. Together, they decided to catch the mole. . But at that time, they all thought that there was only one mole. It was not until someone stole the experimental data that Wan Ning brought back from the laboratory that they learned that there were two groups of moles."

"Mao Qing reported the matter to the leader, and the leader contacted me, and I found out that Aning was secretly involved. So I wrote a letter and asked the leader's secretary to pretend to deliver food to the base. The person personally delivered it to An Ning and personally brought An Ning’s letter back.”

From Xu's father's words, Xu Maoyan finally understood the cause and effect.

Today in Father Xu's office, the reason why the leader called him and Lin An together and told them about this matter was not to discuss it, but to inform them.

Before that, they had already discussed countermeasures.

Xu's father raised his hand, patted Xu Maoyan's shoulder gently, and said sincerely: "I know it's hard for you to accept, but this is the reality. When you get promoted in the future, or become a father, you will be able to understand what I am doing now. situation."

Xu Maoyan responded to his father's words with silence as usual.

It is true that as his father said, only after waiting for that step can he understand the decision made by his father.

Inside the house, Xu's mother and Lin An sat face to face.

"Anzi, tell me truthfully, does Aning really have a way to save his life?"

When she learned that Xu's father wanted Xu Wanning to take risks, Xu's mother's first reaction was also to refuse.

Although she knew that the soul in this body had changed and was no longer the Aning she had known since childhood, to Xu's mother, as long as she still used this body, she was her daughter.

She is her favorite daughter.

How could a mother be willing to let her daughter take such a big risk?

But when she saw Lin An's calm expression, Xu's mother knew that they must have a back-up plan.

Because Xu's mother could feel that Lin An's love for Aning was no less than that of other family members.

Lin An, who should have reacted most violently, acted very calmly. Xu's mother knew that Lin An must know something, so she overcame everyone's opinions and agreed to let Xu Wanning risk her life.

Now, she sent the others away, leaving only Lin An, just to get a definite answer from him that would reassure her.

Lin An nodded solemnly and said solemnly: "Mom, Aning does have life-saving means that others don't know about. I can promise you that Aning will never be harmed in the slightest. Otherwise, I will not agree to her taking risks. . However, this is her secret and cannot be told through my mouth. I hope you will forgive me."

Xu's mother breathed a long sigh of relief: "As long as I know she has a way, it's okay. It's a secret, I don't need to know."

"It's getting late, so you should go back early. By the way, don't let your mother know about Aning for now, lest she become worried too."

"I understand."

Lin An came out of the house and saw Xu's father and Xu Maoyan standing side by side. The father and son did not speak, and the atmosphere was a bit condensed.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Xu's father was the first to react and looked back: "Are you done talking?"

"Well, we've finished chatting. Dad, Mom wants you to go in first."

"Then let's go back to the army first."
