The whole corridor was silent, and the atmosphere was very awkward.

Xu Xinghe looked at the two heads sticking out from behind the door of his room, and then looked at the holographic projection of Ling Changfeng in the video, for a while he didn't know how to explain the chaotic scene in front of him.

And Marshal Ling did not react any further.

He didn't say anything, didn't ask anything, just stood there with his hands behind his back, looking at his little spouse blankly, as if waiting for Xu Xinghe to speak first and take the initiative to explain the ins and outs of the matter.

Although he had no doubts that his young spouse would be stealing away during a trip behind his back, Marshal Ling, who was hung up on the phone, was still very unhappy at the moment, and it was inevitable that he would think of many bad possibilities.

His displeasure is hidden, hidden behind his usual frosty face, and his usual unwavering tone, neither will he get angry and avenge his personal revenge, nor will he implicate innocent people because of it.

However, Xu Xinghe, who had been his spouse for nearly three months, still read out this kind of unhappiness and decided to go to explain and appease him.

Just when Xu Xinghe was about to bite the bullet and say something, there were voices coming from behind the door one after another—

"Ethan, we've finished this round, how about you guys?"

"As you can see, we are short of three right now."

"Where did the three of them go?"

"I don't know either. Team Leader Xu put down his cards and left in a panic after picking up the phone. The other two went to him and didn't come back..."

"It can't be a problem at work, Mr. Liang asked us to go back to work overtime urgently?"

"In the middle of the night, don't tell such unlucky ghost stories."

"Have you called?"

"Called, didn't get through..."

The voices came from far and near, one after another from behind the door. Probably a few people who had finished playing a round of cards came to the small living room to rest and drink water, so the conversation became gradually clearer.

Fortunately, everyone did not come out to find someone in a group, but quickly returned to the bedroom, and the sound gradually drifted away, avoiding pushing the scene in the corridor to a more embarrassing situation.

However, Team Leader Xu, who was standing in the corridor, still had a big head.

He lowered his head and drew circles on the ground with his toes, thinking to himself, forget it, let's just tell the truth.

Ling Changfeng heard the unfamiliar voices coming from the room one after another, but the expression on his face became more and more calm.

From the conversation of the crowd, he easily guessed what they were doing, and he couldn't help but turn his eyes to his little spouse with anger and amusement.

Yitong glanced at Xu Xinghe with his head down, and asked in a light tone, "How many people are in your room now?"

Xu Xinghe lowered his head and decided to confess and be lenient: "Seven, add me eight."

"..." Marshal Ling took a deep breath and thought with an expressionless face, it was nothing, but seven people squeezed into Xu Xinghe's room in the middle of the night, playing cards with his clean little partner. .

Xu Xinghe also "just" hung up his phone because of this.

Ling Changfeng continued to ask blankly, "What are you fighting for?"

Xu Xinghe replied: "Playing poker, a popular card when I was in school, the rules are a bit similar to Dou Dizhu, but it is played in pairs of four. We now have two groups, and we are playing against each other in my room... …”

He said it righteously, but when he inadvertently raised his eyes, he caught a glimpse of Ling Changfeng's indifferent expression.

Team Leader Xu suddenly realized that it was not a wise choice to give a detailed introduction at the moment, so he stopped and said dryly: "Next time..."

He originally wanted to say, "I won't play next time," but after thinking about it, he and his colleagues seem to have no problem playing cards. The only thing that can be called a problem is that he hung up Ling Changfeng's phone, so he changed his words: "I won't hang up your phone next time."

Since he brought up the old things again, Marshal Ling naturally took his words and asked with a stern face, "So, why did you hang up the phone just now?"

Xu Xinghe: "..."

He found that once Ling Changfeng straightened his face, his eyes would indeed become as sharp and sharp as the legend, and extremely lethal, making people almost dare not look directly.

He silently moved his gaze elsewhere, avoiding the other party's gaze, and his voice could not help a little weaker: "I accidentally pressed and hung up, and I didn't see who was calling at that time..."

After he finished speaking, he added another sentence: "My colleague was urging me to play cards at that time."

After Ling Changfeng listened, his eyes swept lightly behind Xu Xinghe again.

The two heads behind the door shivered at the same time, and immediately showed an expression like a concubine, feeling that they were in great trouble.

Ruian wanted to cry but had no tears, and wanted to shout "wronged", but under the cold and stern gaze of Marshal Ling, he couldn't say a word.

Another three-group member was also about to cry. Especially when Marshal Ling's terrifying and decisive eyes swept towards him, he only felt that someone poured a basin of ice water on his head, and his limbs instantly became cold.

Xu Xinghe followed Ling Changfeng's line of sight, and finally remembered that there were two poor fellows behind him.

So he put his hands behind his back and made a gesture to the two of them, indicating that they should hurry back to the house and stay there, and don't get in the way of Marshal Ling's eyes.

However, the two unlucky bastards were already frightened by Marshal Ling's eyes, but they didn't see the gesture of Team Leader Xu.

Xu Xinghe was helpless and had no choice but to turn his head and wave at them, while lip-mouthing: "Hurry back to the house."

Only then did the two regain their senses as if they had just woken up from a dream, and after receiving the amnesty from the marshal's wife, they finally had the courage to escape.

However, the direction of the slip is not right. Xu Xinghe originally meant to let them go back to their respective houses. As a result, the souls of these two people have not completely returned to their places, and most of their bodies are still hidden behind the door. , Shuangshuang hid back in Xu Xinghe's house, and closed the door lightly.

Xu Xinghe: "..."

Ling Changfeng watched them make small moves under his own eyes, but didn't say anything, until the two heads retracted into the room, he asked Xu Xinghe lightly: "Do you still want to continue fighting?"

Xu Xinghe immediately shook his head: "Stop fighting... They were probably scared by you and went in the opposite direction."

In fact, seeing that these two were colleagues of Xu Xinghe, Marshal Ling felt that his eyes had been restrained. It's just that his eyes are really not polite to those who are still pulling his wife to play cards in the middle of the night.

But then again, with his identity and qualifications, he wouldn't vent his dissatisfaction with a group of young citizens.

He just looked at Xu Xinghe and said: "You are not a soldier, you don't need to be on call 24 hours a day, so I don't need your phone to be kept open at all times, but there is still a difference between unanswered and directly hanging up, you don't need next time. …”

Ling Changfeng was halfway through speaking, and suddenly realized that he was in a bad mood, and his tone became a little more indifferent, as if he had returned to the tone of the two people when they first got along.

Qin Yuan reminded him a long time ago that he should not speak in this way when dealing with his little spouse.

Marshal Ling's voice was stagnant, and he felt a little regretful.

So after a short pause, he made up and said, "If I hang up directly, I'll be worried and wonder if something happened to you."

He didn't tell Xu Xinghe that one minute after his first video call application was hung up, the security department, security bureau, and intelligence department all started to operate. If the marshal's wife could not be confirmed in the shortest time Qin Yuan even had to call the head of the local military region directly and ask the other party to take someone to search and rescue.

"I see." Xu Xinghe nodded obediently, and some not-so-distant memories suddenly appeared in his mind.

He vaguely remembered that one time, Mi Lu seemed to have hung up on Mu Qingyun's call because of his anger and disappeared. As a result, Mu Qingyun looked for him and found the world upside down, and even called himself.

In Xu Xinghe's mind flashed a nondescript analogy that came from nowhere - if he suddenly disappeared, would Ling Changfeng also frantically search for him?

Ryan and the two returned to the house, still in shock. Like two marionettes, they walked into the bedroom silently with both eyes open.

Seeing this, the other five people in the house quickly gathered around.

"Hey, are you back? Where did you just go?"

"Where's Team Leader Xiao Xu? Why didn't you come back together?"

"What's wrong? Why don't you speak?"

"Can we still play this card?"

"Stop playing!" Ruian came back to his senses first, and after hearing the word "playing cards", he couldn't help but shuddered and said, "Do you know... who made the call from Team Leader Xu just now? "

Everyone looked at each other: "Who is it? It's not really Boss Liang, is it?"

"No..." The other three group members swallowed and said slowly, "He's a figure many times more terrifying than Boss Liang, a big man."

"Who? It can't be Director Wang, right? I heard that the secretary in the director's office called President Liang directly when he asked for sick leave before!"

"It's not." Ryan said with a gray face, "Big man, you can guess."

Everyone, look at me, and I look at you. He said all of this, and anyone who understands will naturally understand.

"It can't be... Marshal Ling, right?"

After a moment of silence, someone finally asked directly what everyone was thinking.

Ryan nodded with a heavy expression, with a look of more sorrow than death: "Marshal Ling came to check the post, the team leader was caught, and so did Lucas and I, we ran into Marshal Ling in the video as soon as we went out... …”

"Wow, then the two of you are considered to have seen the marshal now, this wave of blood has earned!"

"Blood earns you a big head! If you have the ability, go out and try! If you see Marshal Ling's eyes, you will have nightmares tonight!"

"Then what do we do now? Let's get away, shall we?"

"Wait a minute! They should still be making videos in the corridor now... If they hear something they shouldn't be listening to, they will be silenced!"
