The young army officer's eyes were reddened. "Asking Fu Huai'an to do the rescue mission single-handedly, do you think I'm not worried that my older brother will die there alongside him?"

Lin Nuan looked surprised…

"Ever since I lost my parents at the age of three, my older brother has been the only kin I have in this world! The only one, do you get it? But there's no one else who understands May Myint Yady like Fu Huai'an! No one! If there's someone who can get them out alive from May Myint Yady's hands, it's Fu Huai'an. There's not a second person other than Fu Huai'an who might be able to do this! So I can only believe in Fu Huai'an! I can only pin all my hopes on Fu Huai'an!"

He removed his army cap, and the pitch of his deep voice kept going up. "Do you think the condition I exchanged with Fu Huai'an is to protect your safety while he risks his life? We're only doing this so that Fu Huai'an won't have any qualms, so that he won't have to be worried about your safety while trying to rescue them! He's afraid that you might sense something amiss and even came up with this lame excuse to get you to do some show!"

Because of the anger, the young army officer's eyes were filled with blood vessels. He was so agitated that he was gesticulating with both hands and legs. "No one's forcing Fu Huai'an to rescue them! You can go over to the army right now and say that there are people who need to be rescued! There's not a single wimp in the army who would retreat! So long as the higher-ups agree to let us rescue those people, even if we have to go through a mountain of swords and a sea of flames, even if we die on the way there, our souls would bring those people back! By insulting soldiers… you're insulting your own husband!"

Lin Nuan clenched her fists tightly and didn't say a word…

The young army officer turned around and prepared to leave, but he couldn't take it lying down, so he turned around and continued speaking to Lin Nuan. "What's a soldier? A soldier can sacrifice everything for their country if it benefits the country and its people, even at the expense of their life! Even if we have to sacrifice countless soldiers' lives in order to bring a guilty person to justice! And even if we have to release that person because of our country's interests, a soldier… will absolutely not have a word of complaint! Those deceased soldiers wouldn't have a word of complaint either. That's a soldier!" After unleashing his feelings, the young army officer's throat vibrated greatly. He fixed his army cap and wore it, then added, "Lin Nuan, you're not a soldier! You'll never understand what it means to be a soldier! You'll never understand how deep the feelings of comradery between soldiers is! Even if your shows are excellent, you're but a show host!"

Both the young army officer and Lin Nuan's eyes were reddened.

Undeniably, after listening to the young army officer's words, Lin Nuan was a little moved. It also changed her perception…

However, since it concerned Fu Huai'an, Lin Nuan couldn't possibly stay calm and let things be.

"I want to keep the voice recording, and I want to go back and see Huai'an before deciding whether to follow you to the army!" Lin Nuan slipped her phone into her pocket, then reached out for her down jacket.

The young army officer took a deep look at Lin Nuan. "Up to you!"

He then fixed his army outfit before pulling open the door…

Mu Taotao, You Nainai, Fang Yan, and Miss Xia were standing outside the door. Although they couldn't quite make out what they were saying in there, anyone could sense that they were arguing.

"Follow Lin Nuan!" The army officer strode away in big steps after speaking.

Mu Taotao, You Nainai, Fang Yan, and Miss Xia entered the dressing room with Fang Yan, who entered last and closed the door.

Seeing Lin Nuan put on her jacket, Miss Xia asked, "What's the matter? Isn't he here to talk about a show? How did you guys get into an argument?"

Lin Nuan held back the swollen and painful sensation in her throat as she said, "I'll leave with Nainai first. Tell you in detail later…"

"Nainai!" Lin Nuan called out to You Nainai, calling Fu Huai'an on the phone as she walked out.

Once out the door, those four soldiers followed behind Lin Nuan. Lin Nuan didn't stop them, merely pacing quickly to the elevator.

The call went through just as Lin Nuan pressed on the button to go downstairs.

"Where are you?" Lin Nuan asked.

"At home…"

Fu Huai'an's voice was calm. He could already sense Lin Nuan's emotions from her voice.

Lin Nuan didn't say much else and just hung up the phone.

You Nainai stuck beside Lin Nuan, sensing her fury, helplessness, and franticness.

As a friend, You Nainai should have asked Lin Nuan what was wrong, but she had never been good at asking and comforting, so she only quietly held Lin Nuan's hand.

Sensing Lin Nuan's cold palms full of cold sweat, You Nainai turned her head and gazed at Lin Nuan, wondering what exactly happened!

…

On the way back, Lin Nuan couldn't calm her overwhelmed emotions.

Her brain was filled with that young army officer and Lu Jinnan's words.

The winds were clearly strong and chilly outside, yet Lin Nuan rolled down the car window, wanting to let the chilly wind wake her up.

Her ears had already turned cold, and her face was numb, yet Lin Nuan's brain was still a hot, jumbled mess.

When she caught sight of the jeep bearing a military car plate following behind them in the rearview mirror, Lin Nuan felt even more vexed.

It wasn't that You Nainai didn't know about the military vehicle following behind them, but You Nainai used to be a soldier herself, so she felt a natural closeness to soldiers. Besides, she knew that those four soldiers following them wouldn't threaten Lin Nuan's life and safety, hence she didn't try to throw them off.

"Did… something happen?" You Nainai couldn't resist asking Lin Nuan.

Lin Nuan rolled up the car window and shook her head.

Indeed, she wasn't a soldier…

She indeed didn't understand what a soldier was, nor did she comprehend the feelings of comradery between soldiers!

But Lin Nuan knew that when Fu Huai'an's ex-comrade Qin Zhe sought him out, even after that comrade had pointed a gun at him, and even when Lin Nuan did everything she could to stop him, Fu Huai'an still sent Qin Zhe to Dubai!

The feelings of comradery between them, Lin Nuan guessed, was perhaps akin to Fu Huai'an's relationship with Lu Jinnan. Although they didn't keep in contact, they'd still be willing to discard their lives for the other party when they found out that the other was in danger.

She recalled the way Wang Mang thanked her when she invited him onto the show…

Wang Mang thanked Lin Nuan for agreeing to let Fu Huai'an send Qin Zhe to Dubai. He said… if he had known, even if he had to drag along his prosthetic leg, he would have gone as well!

Lin Nuan rested one elbow on the car window as she watched the wintery scene outside, grabbing her hair with one hand, not knowing what to do!

Honestly speaking, if the person in danger now were Lu Jinnan, Tang Zheng, Gu Qingcheng, or Bai Jinyu, Lin Nuan likely wouldn't stop Fu Huai'an from rescuing them.

"Nainai… you used to be a soldier. If an ex-comrade was in danger, would you go and rescue them? As in, if you went to rescue them… you might not be able to come back alive!" Lin Nuan turned her head towards You Nainai, staring at her as if gazing at her answer, her hope.

You Nainai turned her head. She didn't want to answer hastily because of the way Lin Nuan was looking at her, so she thought about it before saying, "If I knew, I would surely rescue them!"

That one sentence from You Nainai was like a rock that settled down heavily on Lin Nuan's heart, making her unable to breathe easily.
