Chapter 165: Summer Practice
Wan Chu’er snorted coldly, "Uncle Jiang, at your age, you still behave so inappropriately. Does your leader know about this?"
On the other end of the phone, Jiang Kechu burst into laughter. He was about to say something else when the vigilant Chen Ke suddenly signaled him with a gesture.
Jiang Kechu’s face fell, and without changing his tone, he said softly, "Wait obediently for my return. If there’s anything, ask Xiaoxiao and Xiao Shan for help."
Wan Chu’er’s heart skipped a beat, and she blurted out, "I’ll wait for your return..." But the call was already disconnected.
She didn’t finish saying "to beat you up."
Wan Chu’er stood there holding the phone, stunned. She wanted to call back, but reason told her not to do so. Jiang Kechu was on a mission, and it might not be possible to get through to him anyway.
After a while, she murmured to herself, "Jiang Kechu, you’d better come back to me safely!"
He must be in some trouble, or perhaps about to undertake some dangerous mission, she speculated.
In her previous life, she remembered a time when Jiang Kechu had suddenly called her back, but she had made a fuss with him on the phone.
Later, Jiang Xiaoxiao let something slip unintentionally, and only then did she realize that the call Jiang Kechu made was just before he insisted on going into surgery—he had been shot in the chest.
Why this time?
