"Qin Zhi Han, are you leaving?" Qin Wujiao asked as he approached to bid farewell to Qin Zhi Han.
"Yes, I have urgent matters to attend to and must leave." Although he acknowledged his father in his heart, the reserved Qin Zhi Han did not express this affection. At the age when he needed a father's love the most, that love was absent. By the time it arrived, it had already lost its significance.
Seeing Qin Zhi Han treat him with respect but lacking warmth, Qin Wujiao sighed deeply. He was strong in political and military strategy but struggled to express emotions. At least the child had not rejected him; perhaps it was best to let things unfold naturally. "Take care of yourself."
As he stepped outside, Qin Zhi Han encountered Qi Runzhou, who had come to discuss matters with Qin Wujiao. "Qin Zhi Han, just the person I wanted to see. I have something to ask you."
"Please go ahead," Qin Zhi Han replied politely.
"It’s about that girl we encountered last time—the one known as Commander Su. I've thought about it for a long time and realized I don’t know her at all. My late wife never mentioned her either, yet she seems very familiar with us. Do you know who she is or what the situation is?" Qi Runzhou organized his thoughts carefully.
"Her name is Su Ruolan. I met her during a supply run, but I don't know much about her situation. I heard she got married and came looking for her husband," Qin Zhi Han explained briefly.
"What? What did you say her name was?" Qi Runzhou exclaimed in shock.
"Su Ruolan. Her name is Su Ruolan," Qin Zhi Han repeated.
"Impossible! No way! She’s dead!" Qi Runzhou seemed struck by lightning. "Where did you see her? Was there a girl with her? Did she look like herself or was she made up?"
"Qi Commander, what’s wrong? I saw her near H Base. She looked just as you saw her when I met her," Qin Zhi Han said, puzzled by Qi Runzhou's sudden outburst.
"Oh, it's nothing, nothing. I went to report to your father," Qi Runzhou forced a smile and pushed the door open as she entered.
Qin Zhi Han felt increasingly suspicious and decided to investigate further. In the corner behind the door, Kang Wanying bit her lip hard to prevent herself from screaming.
It couldn't be, it was impossible. She had clearly died; how could she still be alive? She had been decapitated and disemboweled, left hanging as a corpse—everyone had seen it and confirmed it. Moreover, the woman she had seen last time looked nothing like her, and the age didn't match either; it couldn't possibly be her. Kang Wanying walked back in a daze, inadvertently stepping on a dry twig that snapped underfoot.
Qin Zhi Han's ears perked up as he said to Cyan Flame, "Go check who it is and find out what's going on. I feel like Qi Commander and his wife are acting very strangely towards Su Ruolan."
"Alright, I'll bring you good news," Cyan Flame replied confidently before disappearing without a sound.
In the room, although Qin Zhi Han was writing, he was restless, unsure of what news Cyan Flame would bring back.
"I'm back," Cyan Flame's voice suddenly rang out.
"Quick, what happened?" Qin Zhi Han asked anxiously as he handed a cup of water to Cyan Flame.
Cyan Flame glanced at Qin Zhi Han and noticed his genuine concern. Initially wanting to tease him, he decided against it, picked up the cup, pretended to take a sip, and said seriously, "Qin Zhi Han, do you remember how notorious Squad became?"
"Of course. It was that infamous massacre incident. They cruelly killed the wife of a Senior General of the Huaxia Army to intimidate everyone else into submission; it was chilling and made people stop resisting."
