Chapter 1278: Chapter 1279: Ning Gang’s Gratitude
Ning Ge and Qi Taiguo were both seriously injured. Although there was no danger to their lives, they needed careful treatment and rest. Considering that the medical facilities in Guicheng are still relatively underdeveloped and cannot compare to the advanced ones in the Capital, the two of them were transferred to the Army General Hospital in Yanjing for treatment.
As for the follow-up matters of the mission, naturally, someone would wrap things up, so Qi Taiguo need not worry. During the mission, none of our side died, just a few were injured, and Qi Taiguo himself was the most severely wounded.
Casualties are inevitable in missions, and to have completed the mission so smoothly, seizing such a large batch of contraband, and destroying a secret weapons factory, is indeed a great achievement, and future commendations will undoubtedly be rewarded.
But as for merits and honors, they can be discussed later. The most critical thing now is to recuperate and heal, as the country still needs brave and swift individuals like them!
So Qi Taiguo and the others had no objections and were carried onto the special plane sent by the Capital, transferred to the Capital’s general hospital.
Qi Taiguo was worried that Cheng Su might be concerned, so he checked the calendar and realized that it was the day Cheng Su and her family were returning to their hometown, so he hurriedly made a call back home.
But no one answered at home; they were probably already on the road. Qi Taiguo had no choice but to set this matter aside, planning to call her again once she was back in the hometown.
Ning Ge saw this and smiled, a bit envious; having someone to care about is truly nice.
He pulled out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, lit one, but before he could take a puff, someone snatched it away.
Upon turning around, he saw a woman with a cold expression glaring at him, snatching the cigarette from his hand, and coldly said, "This is a hospital, no smoking allowed." She then looked him up and down and added, "Patients, especially, shouldn’t smoke!"
With that, she walked away, her high heels clicking, without waiting for Ning Ge to respond.
Ning Ge was stunned until the woman disappeared, then he reacted, "My cigarette, damn, who was that!"
Qi Taiguo looked at him with a rare smile, feeling in good spirits.
"Let’s go, it’s really not a good time for you to smoke now." Qi Taiguo moved along with his IV stand, speaking to the side.
"I’ve never seen such a domineering woman." Ning Ge said furiously, "If I find out who she is, just wait, cough, cough."
The two shared the same hospital room, and upon returning to it, they saw the visitor waiting inside!
"Big Brother."
"Commander!"
Qi Taiguo wanted to salute, but Ning Gang said, "Alright, cut the formalities, focus on resting, just lie down!"
In Ning Gang’s eyes, he looked at Qi Taiguo with appreciation, and now there was a hint of gratitude too. After all, he’s aware of what happened during the mission and naturally knew that Qi Taiguo took the blame for his own son.
It’s not that Ning Gang was selfish, but hearing such circumstances, he couldn’t help feeling a tug at his heart. His son was his only child; if something happened to him, the next generation’s backbone would be gone.
So, now as he looked at Qi Taiguo, he felt grateful, he hadn’t misjudged him.
"How’s your condition? Why are you running around instead of resting properly?" Ning Gang spoke with a hint of reproach.
Qi Taiguo felt a bit embarrassed and stammered, "Just wanted to let my family know I’m safe!"
Ning Gang understood, a warmth flashed in his eyes, a man can fight at the front, but once off the front line, he still cares for his family, which is enough to prove this man’s character.
Ning Ge, seeing Qi Taiguo’s awkwardness, tried to change the subject, "Big Brother, so tell us, how’s the situation in the Capital now?"
Ning Gang had come both to visit them and to deliver news, to put their minds at ease, and he slowly began talking about the Loo Family and Jiang Conghe’s situation.
