Afraid I'll Get Beaten

At this thought, Lin Nannan understood one thing: Yu Yao had pressured Yu Ying to confront her in order to anger her into leaving the military base...

But what awaited her outside the base?

Someone wanted to capture her!

At this thought, Lin Nannan’s face changed, and she frowned deeply...

Two years ago, Yu Yao had shown up here intending to set a trap for her. But because she wasn’t around, his carefully laid plans fell apart, and his plot failed.

She could imagine that if she had been here two years ago, taking care of Lu Dudu, and someone had deliberately fed her ambiguous information while she and Lu Hang were busy, what would she have done?

If it were an ordinary military spouse, they might have cried and made a scene. Even if Lu Hang tried to explain, it would be hard to explain. Once or twice might be manageable, but what about after several or even a dozen times?

Even the strongest trust would start to crack. Eventually, she would have definitely taken Lu Dudu and left...

Back then, the formula in the prescription hadn’t caused any issues. The prescription she sold had been hastily verified and purchased by them. The trial products, after testing, showed some differences in efficacy, but they likely hadn’t discovered it in a short time... So, Yu Yao’s appearance here, forcing her to leave the military base, wasn’t because of the pharmaceutical factory. Even Yu Ying’s entry into the factory was a smokescreen, meant to make people think his target was the factory.

Reflecting on the layers of scheming, Lin Nannan gasped inwardly, feeling grateful for her rationality and her trust in Lu Hang.

If she hadn’t trusted Lu Hang, she really would have taken Lu Dudu and left by now. No matter how capable she was, traveling with a child in tow would inevitably bring dangers, especially since she couldn’t bear the thought of anything happening to her child.

Knowing she could be targeted at any time, Lin Nannan had stayed in since returning. If she needed anything, she would ask someone to bring it for her.

She was thankful for her caution, especially with her child by her side. She had no intention of playing the hero, getting herself killed, or even needing Lu Hang to rescue her.

Realizing that Yu Yao didn’t dare to make a move against her within the military base and only aimed to force her to leave, she felt relieved.

As long as she didn’t do anything reckless, she could safely wait here for Lu Hang’s return...

Speaking of which, when would Lu Hang actually return...?

Having outmaneuvered her opponent, Lin Nannan was in good spirits, eating well and sleeping soundly. So much so that when someone entered the house that night, she didn’t even notice...

Returning from a mission late at night, Lu Hang didn’t think much of it when he found someone staying in his house. He assumed it was a relative of someone in the base who had no place to stay and had been accommodated there. After all, he had entrusted his keys to Ah Si, and it wasn’t unusual for comrades to stay over—it had happened before.

So, without overthinking it, he skillfully unlocked the door and entered, planning to rest if possible or return to his office if not...

He turned on the light, scanned the room, and noticed women’s and children’s belongings. His eyes widened as he realized what it meant. His breathing quickened, and he hurried inside, where he saw the mother and daughter curled up together, sleeping soundly on the bed. A pang of emotion tightened his throat, but a smile tugged at the corners of his lips.

He quietly approached, gazing down at them as if he could never get enough. Yet, he didn’t reach out to touch them. It wasn’t until Lin Nannan opened her eyes and looked at him that the two simply stared at each other, neither speaking.

"What are you standing there for?" Lin Nannan’s tone was irritable from being abruptly awakened.

Lu Hang laughed softly, "I’m afraid of getting beaten!"
