Reading the mind of the pure and lustful wife, the abstinent officer blushed

The two had never talked about this topic before, but Huo Yan brought it up on his own initiative. Even though Su Lingyu knew that he was trying to comfort her, she curiously asked, "How did you figure it out?"

"I think that what happened has already happened and cannot be undone. But my life was fought for by my comrades one after another. I cannot live to disappoint them and make their spirits in heaven feel that it was not worth it."

"Most people are not alone in this world. Even if they sacrificed their lives, they still have their parents, wives, and children alive. Their families must be their concerns. I will take good care of them."

"As long as I am alive, I can take care of their families. I don't ask for peace of mind, I just want to be useful. But if I don't pull myself together, one day I won't even be able to take care of them financially, and I will feel even more guilty towards them."

"Sometimes, sadness is not as important as reality. After all, people still need to eat and wear warm clothes."

“Besides, people always have to look forward.”

"I would rather be proactive and face it than dwell on the past and hurt myself."

"..."

Su Lingyu looked up at Huo Yan.

The tall and steady man had a resolute face. He looked at her with gentle and deep eyes. His voice was low and heavy, and he spoke neither fast nor slow, like a lamp hanging on a lonely boat on a river on a windy and rainy night, warming people's hearts.

She nodded seriously: "I understand."

She always felt that she was responsible for Gu Yanying's disappearance, that she owed him something, and that she had made Jiang Yufeng, who had finally found her relatives, heartbroken. She felt extremely guilty.

But Huo Yan was also right. What had happened had already happened and could not be undone. What she needed to do most now was to continue searching for Gu Yanying's whereabouts.

In case you can’t find it…

She would do whatever she could for him. At least, she would take good care of Jiang Yufeng's retirement.

……

The flood came to an end. Although the volunteer team sent by the Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine was delayed for one day, they boarded the train back to Beijing the next night.

Except for Jiang Yufeng who stayed to wait for news about Gu Yanying, Wang Yiling stayed with Su Lingyu because she was worried about her, and two suspicious colleagues were still detained, the rest of the colleagues left.

The rescue of Gu Yanying has never stopped.

For three consecutive days, Huo Yan and his men hovered on the river, looking for someone.

While he was looking for someone, Su Lingyu also sat in the speedboat to accompany him, thinking that once the system found out Gu Yanying's whereabouts, he would tell him immediately without wasting time.

Her skin was delicate, and the strong river wind almost wrinkled her face, but she didn't care at all, and her eyes were focused on looking at the river surface.

Even if she had to ask the system for help, she didn't want to give up her efforts. She would feel better if she kept taking action and worrying about it.

But three days later, there was still no news from Gu Yanying.

The system couldn't help but advise: [Host, it's not a good idea for you to keep looking like this. When you humans do rescue work, you also pay attention to the best rescue time. It's been three days... To be honest, if something really happened, Gu Yanying would have been in trouble long ago.]

Su Lingyu didn't give up and asked: [What if nothing happens to him? ]

The system said: [It’s even better if nothing happened. Didn’t he come back on his own? ]

Su Lingyu: [……]

I wish it were true.

During these three days, many people advised Su Lingyu to give up, thinking that it would be a waste of effort after missing the best rescue time. However, Su Lingyu gritted his teeth and refused.

In the end, Jiang Yufeng came to persuade them.

You can look for it for one day, or three days, but you can’t keep looking forever. Everything has an end.

On the fourth day, Su Lingyu and his party returned to the capital.

In everyone's mind, Su Lingyu had done her best, but in Su Lingyu's heart, it was obviously not so easy to let it go.

On the return train, Su Lingyu couldn't sleep at night. Huo Yan held her shoulders and stood with her in front of the window, looking at the dark night outside.

"In three minutes, you can lie down and rest for a while if you don't want to sleep, okay?"

"Ah."

Huo Yan touched Su Lingyu's head and sighed in his heart.

He knew that she had been too well protected and too soft-hearted before, and suddenly someone died to protect her. No matter who that person was, the guilt was like a huge stone, weighing heavily on her heart.

Although she didn't cry again except for the first day, and tried hard to stay positive and not worry him, the sadness and confusion that occasionally flashed between her eyebrows still made him feel distressed.

As soon as the three minutes were up, Huo Yan forced Su Lingyu to lie down.

He knows that it takes time to get over sadness, and he won’t preach to her to make her “get over it”. He will just accompany her silently.

If she could forget it in one day or one night, then she is not a kind-hearted person.

However, there are things he can do.

He said: "The Wuliang Organization is omnipresent. They are so powerful that they have planted a nail in the Chinese Medical Research Institute. They have not been exposed after several background checks. They can also bribe famous doctors like Zhang Haoran. However, no matter how powerful they are, I will eliminate them one by one!"

"Their actions this time have exposed the people behind the scenes. When I return to the capital, I will deal with these matters and will definitely give you an explanation."

"Doctor Jiang said that he wanted to build a cenotaph for Gu Yanying. When everything is settled, we will go to pay our respects together and tell him the news."

Su Lingyu nodded: "Yes."

……

After returning to the capital, Su Lingyu was in a bad mood, had no appetite, and was sleepy during the day.

The Huo family looked at her condition. Although they didn't show it on their faces, they were very worried in their hearts. But they didn't dare to say anything more, for fear of making her feel more guilty.

Because he was really worried, Huo Yan quickly finished the things on hand, and handed over the things that could not be handled for the time being to Xie Rongjun, asking him to help. He then planned to take Su Lingyu out to relax.

He did a lot of homework. Not only did he take Su Lingyu out camping once, he also took her to visit her favorite clothing stores and ate at all the famous restaurants in Beijing.

The itinerary was fully arranged, so Su Lingyu had much less time to think about random things.

Furthermore, she also discovered that her condition was not right and would affect the emotions of those around her.

In their eyes, she seemed to have turned into a crystal doll that would break at the slightest mistake, so they treated her with great caution.

Even Jiang Yufeng, who was clearly as sad as she was, actually tried to comfort her...

Su Lingyu felt that she couldn't be depressed any longer.
