When Su Yuanyuan returned to the small courtyard of the military family area in Fengshi, a landmine exploded.

Sister Min took Lu Shouming and Zhou Xuefeng directly to the guesthouse, and she returned to her empty home alone.

The dusty room told her that Xu Jianli had been gone for a long time.

Su Yuanyuan called to ask before she came back, and knew that Xu Jianli was still on a mission and had not returned yet, but when she really saw that there was no one at home, she still couldn't help feeling disappointed.

In addition to feeling lost, I also felt a little panicky.

In fact, it was because of this completely uncontrollable panic that she decided to come back no matter what.

Whether it was doing useless work or causing trouble for Captain Lu, she needed to do something anyway.

Of course, Lu Yunge didn't think she was looking for trouble at all. Knowing she was back, he came to find her before he even waited for her to come to him.

When she asked about Xu Jianli, Lu Yunge's attitude was very enthusiastic, but the answer he gave was very cold.

He said, "You are his wife. You have the right to ask the army about his safety. I am happy to tell you more so that you can be assured. But the problem is that I don't know his situation now! Really! I don't know anything! I don't even know where he is now!"

Lu Yunge's tone was filled with lingering dissatisfaction and accusation, as well as a hint of grievance.

After all, as his direct superior, he didn't even know the whereabouts of his subordinates. It was really outrageous and embarrassing.

Su Yuanyuan didn't care about his face and just asked, "So, the mission he is carrying out this time is very dangerous, right?"

Lu Yunge was silent for a moment and told the truth.

"If you talk about danger, every mission he carries out is very dangerous."

Good steel is used on the blade, and the blade is always the one facing the enemy.

Su Yuanyuan understood. She didn’t want to embarrass Lu Yunge, so she didn’t ask any more questions.

There was no need for Lu Yunge to lie to her. When he said he didn't understand the situation, he must have really not understood it.

There's no point in continuing to ask.

She then remembered to ask Lu Yunge why he came, "So why did you come to see me?"

Lu Yunge immediately shook off his dejection and perked up.

"It's about your work."

Su Yuanyuan raised her eyebrows in confusion, work?

Lu Yunge gave a friendly (flattering) smile and said in a gentle and harmless tone, "Although you rejected my proposal when you first joined the army, I believe you will definitely consider it this time."

Su Yuanyuan was now even more confused.

Fortunately, Lu Yunge explained it to her quickly.

"Look, didn't you introduce me to the head of the Star Energy Laboratory and tell us to work with her directly if we need anything? During this period, we have established some preliminary contacts and have also discussed some cooperation."

Su Yuanyuan nodded and remembered this incident.

She also remembered that Lu Yunge had indeed offered her some favorable conditions at that time, wanting her to work for the army's military factory.

So, this time, it’s still about the military factory?

Lu Yunge continued, "I accidentally heard the person in charge mention that your laboratory might build a branch in Feng City, and the focus of this branch is military industry and medical care, which will make cooperation between the two sides more convenient in the future."

"When I heard about this, I immediately thought, that's great! Since you have to apply for land from the city anyway, why don't you just come directly to our base? It's convenient and safe! Right? I'll ask the chief for a larger area if you need it!"

"Actually, when I said this, I didn't hold out much hope, thinking that I would most likely be rejected. I didn't expect..."

"The person in charge said that it is not impossible to place the Fengshi branch in the base. The key lies in one person's opinion."

At this point, Lu Yunge's expression suddenly became somewhat inexplicable, and he looked at Su Yuanyuan with a slightly inquiring look.

That look seemed to be saying, I never knew that you, Comrade Su, have such a big say in your laboratory?

No wonder when we introduced the laboratory to cooperate with the army, as soon as we called, the person in charge agreed to cooperate without saying a word, right?

Lu Yunge didn't need to continue talking, his eyes had already said it all.

"Cough." Su Yuanyuan coughed to cover up, secretly cursing Yao Qing in her heart for setting a trap for her without even notifying her.

However, the Lu family now has Lu Shouming working for her. Even if Lu Shouming does not reveal her identity to the outside world, as long as Lu Yunge sees his nephew with her, he will be able to guess most of her situation.

The identity she played in front of Lu Shouming and the others was that of a core researcher in the laboratory, someone with a lot of say. She might as well use this identity to deal with Lu Yunge.

"Yes, from my side, I am indeed one of the candidates for the head of Feng City branch..."

Seeing Lu Yunge's eyes suddenly light up like flames, Su Yuanyuan felt helpless and scolded Yao Qing again.

"The person in charge has not been decided yet, and I don't know who it is."

Seeing that Lu Yunge looked normal and had no doubts, Su Yuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

He continued, "Regarding the site selection issue...if it is confirmed that I am the person in charge, then of course I have the right to speak. However, Uncle Lu, please wait for me to go back and confirm this matter first, okay?"

Lu Yunge was not someone who could be fooled casually. He nodded and said, "Of course, such an important matter should indeed be confirmed first. However, Comrade Su, if you are confirmed to be the person in charge, our base should be your first choice for this location, right?"

"Of course." Su Yuanyuan agreed without hesitation, but then added, "But I can't decide this matter alone. It depends on the boss's opinion."

After several rounds of discussion, Su Yuanyuan finally left some wiggle room for herself and did not make the matter final.

From her personal point of view, it is of course a good idea to have the branch located at the base, but if the long-term future of the laboratory is considered, it is better to have it be independent.

If she worked in the city, the worst that could happen to her would be that her workplace was a little far from home, and she would just drive back and forth every day.

Being placed at the residence will make it closer to work, but it is still unknown how much autonomy of the laboratory can be retained in one's hands over time.

After seeing Lu Yunge off, Su Yuanyuan realized that it was futile for her to just guard the empty yard. She could not get any useful information and it would only increase her anxiety. She might as well keep herself busy.

So, she called the art troupe and asked Sister Xia to help inform Guoguo to stay at her place that night.

This time when she came back, she wanted to take a look at Guoguo's condition and see how she was adapting to the art troupe.

I will go to the city to see Mom and Qiu Sheng early tomorrow morning.

She took the specialties prepared by her mother-in-law to her mother, and then she went directly back to Qinghe from the city.

This time when she goes back, she will discuss the laboratory branch matters with Yao Qing.
