After Marrying the Officer-Chapter 261 - 2061 Ready to Say Goodbye
Chapter 261: 2061 Ready to Say Goodbye
Ling County’s underworld was thoroughly eradicated with the fall of Lin Aiguo, the powerful protective umbrella, combined with the joint sweep by the Police Station and the army.
The gang eradication mission was successfully completed, and the moment of separation had truly arrived.
The next day, Huo Shiqian took his subordinates to the Police Station to do the final handover work.
"Miss Ou, I’ve said it, I don’t know!" As soon as he entered, he heard Chang Luhui talking on the phone impatiently, "Huo Commander’s personal affairs, how would I know?"
Hearing this, Huo Shiqian frowned.
Xiao Wang and the others exchanged glances.
Huo Shiqian glanced at Xiao Wang, who immediately ran over and softly said to Chang Luhui, "Let me handle it."
Then he took the phone from his hand.
"Yes, hello, Miss Ou." freёwebnoѵel.com
"That’s correct, our Commander does have a little sister-in-law."
"Thank you for your concern, Miss Ou. The Commander and the little sister-in-law are on very good terms, please convey my thanks to Mrs. Huo!"
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Wang returned to Huo Shiqian’s side and saluted, saying, "Report, Commander, the matter has been handled."
Huo Shiqian nodded, "Hmm."
His expression was calm, as if he had dealt with something trivial.
In a blink, he put the matter behind him and instructed Chang Luhui, "Proceed with the handover work."
After the handover was completed, it was time for Huo Shiqian to leave, and Chang Luhui seemed rather reluctant.
"Commander, you are leaving already?"
Ignoring his former subordinate’s sentiment of parting, he calmly said to Chang Luhui, "Old Chang, take good care of the affairs here in Chuyi."
Chang Luhui nodded, thumping his chest, "Rest assured, I understand!"
Then, Huo Shiqian said to Xiao Wang and the others, "Drive, let’s go to ’Youwei.’"
Farewell.
Upon arriving at "Youwei," someone was heard asking, "Young boss, your family’s shop hasn’t opened for a long time. I smelled something savory coming from your store today, are you reopening?"
Xia Chuyi came out from inside and replied to the person, "Not yet, today’s seasoning is for someone’s farewell."
"Tomorrow then, ’Youwei’ will reopen tomorrow! We welcome all our new and regular customers with discounts!"
"Is that so?" The customer was a bit disappointed that there was no cooked meat for sale today but somewhat happy that ’Youwei’ was reopening tomorrow, and thus said, "Then I’ll come back tomorrow!"
"Alright, take care," Xia Chuyi saw off another inquirer and then looked up to see Huo Shiqian.
"Uncle Liberation Army!" she blurted out.
Everyone: ...
Xia Chuyi bit her tongue, how did she accidentally call out what was in her heart!
She quickly changed to a more well-behaved demeanor, smiling as she approached and rephrased, "Brother Shi Qian, you’ve arrived?"
As calm as if the slip earlier hadn’t happened.
"Yes, I came to say goodbye," Huo Shiqian said earnestly, looking at the spirited little girl.
With the farewell imminent, he couldn’t bring himself to be upset with her.
However, because of his word "farewell," Xia Chuyi’s smile gradually faded.
"Then, you guys sit first, I’ve prepared some seasoned dishes for you to take on the road." Saying this, she immediately went forward, dragging Huo Shiqian with her to the backyard.
Clearly, her "you guys" referred to Xiao Wang and others.
And she and Huo Shiqian, naturally, were "us."
Behind, Xiao Wang and the others looked at each other and started making faces.
Once she dragged him into the kitchen, Xia Chuyi suddenly didn’t know what to say or do.
