3099 Don’t Force Yourself

Mr. Fu went to the military headquarters around three in the morning. The lights in the houses were already all switched on. His steps were a little weak. It was as if his feet were stepping on cotton. Every step he took made the two guards beside him nervous. They were afraid that the chief would fall.

“Chief, you can rest here for a while. I’ll drive over now.” After walking to the small path beside the driveway, the meticulous guard didn’t dare to let Mr. Fu continue walking. He let another guard take good care of him while he rushed to the parking lot to drive the car over.

Mr. Fu, who had walked out of Commander Xia’s office, wasn’t in a good mood. He was in a daze. His head was dizzy. One moment, it was heavy, and the next moment, it was cold. He felt light-headed and didn’t feel comfortable at all.

Although Mr. Fu heard what the guard said, he didn’t say anything. He just nodded, acknowledging it.

“Take care of the chief,” the guard who was leaving said to the other guard in a low voice. Then, he strode forward to get the car.

It was already dark outside. There was a snow-white light coming from the high lamppost, illuminating a corner. It also illuminated the bent branches of the trees that were surrounded by greenery in the day.

Mr. Fu’s gaze landed somewhere. It was as if he was looking at the tree or the light. After standing for a few seconds, he seemed to have thought of something and said to the guard, “Where’s my cell phone?”

After entering the military headquarters and reaching the key level, everyone’s phones would be taken away. They couldn’t bring any communication devices up. Their phones would only be returned after they walked out of the key level.

The guard quickly passed the cell phone over. When Mr. Fu took the cell phone, he didn’t notice that his fingers were trembling.

It was already past 7 am. His daughter needed to rush back to school at 5 am to report. At this moment, she was already in school. After gathering, she started her self-study.

The cell phone was turned on. Beep, beep, beep. Multiple text notifications sounded. They sounded a little urgent.

When Mr. Fu saw the number on it, his fingers moved, and he couldn’t wait to open the message.

They were all messages from Ye Jian.

[Dad, I’m already in Xiang City. The weather in Xiang City is very good. It’s not as dry as in the capital.]

[Dad, why did you turn off your cell phone? Is Grandpa okay?] Mr. Fu could feel Ye Jian’s worry after learning that his phone was switched off.

[You went out, right? I just called Grandpa. He’s fine. You don’t have to worry.]

[Dad, call me when you turn on the phone.]

At 4:50 am, the fifth message came. [Dad, I’m already at school. I need to hand over my cell phone. I’ll call you after I go out.]

At this moment, there were many public phones outside, but there were none in the National Science University. They needed to walk out of the school.

Communications between the military school students and the outside world were strictly managed. They couldn’t go out at will and couldn’t contact the outside world at will. If there was anything urgent at home, they could contact the school.

After reading the five messages and sensing his daughter’s deep concern, Mr. Fu felt much more awake.

After thinking about it, he didn’t call. Instead, he sent a few messages.

From afar, he could only express his concern through text messages and letters.
