Chapter 181 She Can't Be Like Her Brother
"He had a bunch of information on weapons research and modification with him. He has been sent to the military doctor. It's nothing serious. He just lost too much blood and fell into a coma. He has woken up now."
"I asked his name, and it turned out to be Song Chengwei. He just returned to China not long ago and was hunted by the Fang faction. He was not willing to research weapons for the Fang faction, so he escaped."
"We tried to persuade him, but he still refused to stay with us."
Yue Xiangli walked out with the defense map in hand, "I know him. I'll go talk to him."
Yan Qiupei was surprised for a moment and followed him.
Yue Xiangli and Song Chengwei were classmates. When he saw it was him, Song Chengwei immediately changed his mind and agreed.
During those years when they were studying in China, Song Chengwei and Yue Xiangli talked about their ideals, but there was chaos at that time, so Yue Xiangli later joined the army and he went abroad.
Song Chengwei looked at him with an excited look on his face, "Let me tell you, I have a friend named Gu Kuangheng, who is very good at researching firearms."
"He is about to return to China from abroad. You must win him over. I want to work with him."
"I'll give you the route for his return. Send someone to the dock before his arrival to bring him over. Tell him my name and he will definitely go with you."
"No, I will write a letter, and you give it to him."
Yue Xiangli did not expect such a surprise, and immediately asked Yan Qiupei to mobilize troops.
After Song Chengwei finished writing the letter, Yue Xiangli said, "Let's go to Zhencheng first and wait for news."
"Okay, let's go now. I'm only halfway through my research and can't delay it for too long."
"The train leaves tomorrow, so you should get yourself ready." Yue Xiangli glanced at him with a hint of disdain.
"Hey, what's that look on your face?"
Yue Xiangli didn't turn back and turned to leave the ward.
"His temper hasn't changed at all over the years." Song Chengwei muttered as he looked at his back.
The next afternoon, Yue Xiangli returned to Zhencheng and asked Lin Pingyi to arrange for Song Chengwei to enter the laboratory and meet Shen Dingwei again.
"The forces that have infiltrated the government include the Fang Clan, the Lian Clan, and the Yuan Clan to our south. All officials have already figured them out."
"We will close the net tomorrow night, destroy the treaty, and take back the mine and Wuxi Minxiang."
"Okay, I'll have someone keep a close eye on you. You go and have a rest for a while." Shen Dingwei nodded.
Yue Xiangli looked up at the sun that had just set, and went back to the house, "Yeah."
After changing clothes, Yue Xiangli went to No. 25 Lihua Lane and knocked on the door three times in short bursts.
Ning Sangyu glanced through the crack in the door and saw a familiar badge, so she pulled the bolt.
I feel a little nervous, but also a little happy.
Seeing the person standing in front of him, Ning Sangyu didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Can I come in?" He lowered his eyes to look at her, suppressing the longing that could not be expressed at this moment.
I haven't seen her for half a month.
Ning Sangyu moved aside to make way for him, "Come in."
"How is your wound?" Yue Xiangli turned around and closed the door and asked.
"I'm almost healed. I went to change the dressing yesterday, and the doctor couldn't believe it. He said I'm recovering well and can move around, but I can't do big movements."
Pearl of All Worlds: Produced by the divine world, it must be a top quality product.
"That's good. Where's your brother?"
"He went to the dock to pick up a friend and won't be back for a while."
Yue nodded to Li and put the clay pot in his hand on the low table beside him. "I bought this clay pot stewed with beef trotters when I came here. I hope it suits your taste."
"Thank you." Since he heard last time that she liked to eat, he often bought food to bribe her.
During the time he was away from Zhencheng, he asked people to send her food every now and then, and the food was never repeated.
Yue Xiangli took out a pistol from his waist and handed it to her, "I'll give you a self-defense weapon, a silencer."
Ning Sangyu looked at him and took the gun from him, "Be gentle."
"Well, it's an improved version, and it's a little lighter than the ones currently available in the country. How's your aim?" He nodded with a slight smile on his face.
"My left hand is not my dominant hand. Now I can hold the gun horizontally for ten minutes without shaking. But since we are in the city and have never fired a gun before, I am not sure if I can suppress the recoil."
Yue Xiangli glanced at the yard, picked up a broken wooden barrel from the corner, and erected it against the wall. "Try it?"
He walked back and reloaded his gun.
Ning Sangyu nodded, took aim and fired, but the recoil was too great and she couldn't control it, so she missed the target.
"That's enough." Yue Xiangli took the gun from her hand and unloaded it. "Your wrist strength is not enough. The recoil of this pistol has been reduced. You can practice your wrist strength more in the future and tie a sandbag."
"Okay." Ning Sangyu looked at the movements of his hands, "Is everything going well?"
"It's OK. It went smoothly." Yue Xiangli glanced at her sideways, "Don't you want to sit down?"
Ning Sangyu looked around and asked with a puzzled tone, "Is this my home? Why do I feel like the guest?"
"You seem a little restrained, so I'll have to guide you in speaking." Yue opened fire on Lila, "Don't be afraid of me."
Ning Sangyu sat on the stool, "I'm not afraid of you."
Yue Xiangli sat next to her and moved his hands at a moderate pace. "The internal structure of this pistol is different from the existing ones. I will disassemble and assemble it for you."
"Oh." She watched him dismantle and reassemble.
"Do you understand?" He tilted his head slightly and looked into her eyes.
"I understand." Ning Sangyu blinked to avoid his gaze, her heart beating a little faster, and nodded.
He looked at her seriously, with a smile and fondness in his eyes.
"How clever." The voice was smiling.
Ning Sangyu picked up the cup on the table and took a sip of water, "Why are you the same as my brother?"
He always praised her like this, but it felt different when he did so.
Yue Xiangli raised the corner of his lips, but did not respond to her words. He stretched out his hand to her, "The water should be cold. It's still spring. Don't drink cold water. I'll pour you some warm water."
He couldn't be like her brother, he didn't want to be her brother.
The water was indeed cold. Ning Sangyu handed him the cup upon hearing this.
Yue poured some water for Li, tested the temperature by touching the cup, and then handed the cup back to her. "Do you like to listen to opera? The troupe will be performing The Drunken Concubine in a few days."
"Do you want to invite me to a play?"
"Well, may I have the honor?"
"Okay." Ning Sangyu lowered her head and sipped her saliva.
Just talk, why do you have to look at her or just smile when you talk.
The more he looked at Li's flustered appearance, the softer his eyes became.
so cute.
"Are you hungry?"
"I'm hungry, but my brother hasn't come back yet."
As soon as Ning Sangyu finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
Yue Xiangli looked at her and asked, "I'll go open it?"
Ning Sangyu nodded.
Ji Huaimin was a little surprised to see Yue Xiangli, "When did Yue Xiangli come back?"
"About an hour or two ago." Yue Xiangli looked at Fang Chiheng beside him and nodded at him.
Along the way, Fang Chiheng also heard Ji Huaimin talk about Yue Xiangli, but he didn't seem to be disgusted at this time. "I'm Fang Chiheng, nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you, Yue Xiangli."
Ji Huaimin walked in carrying one of Fang Chiheng's boxes, leaving them behind.
Seeing Ning Sangyu holding a cup and looking at them, he put down the box, walked over and touched her head, "Are you hungry? I ordered food from the restaurant, and someone will deliver it in a while."
Ning Sangyu nodded.
Fang Chiheng came in and saw Ning Sangyu looking at him. He smiled sincerely and said, "You wouldn't know until you see her. Sangsang has grown so big in six years."
"Brother Chiheng." Ning Sangyu was quite familiar with Chiheng because they communicated frequently.
