At this moment, Lin Yu suddenly remembered that Xiao Manru had told him before that he would contact Mr. He or his adjutant every night to confirm whether Mr. He or he or she was safe.
So since Mr. He has lost contact with the headquarters for three days and three nights, he naturally has lost contact with Xiao Manru. So Xiao Manru should have known about this a long time ago!
Lin Yu couldn't understand why Xiao Manru didn't tell him earlier, and she was still trying to deceive him until now!
Hearing Lin Yu's questioning, Xiao Manru on the other end of the phone suddenly became silent, and then suddenly burst into tears without warning, feeling sad, with long-depressed grievance and despair in her voice!
Lin Yu was suddenly stunned by her crying, his heart was beating, and he asked anxiously, "Aunt Xiao, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with Uncle He?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a chill from the soles of his feet to the back, fearing that something had happened to Mr. He Er.
Xiao Manru on the other end of the phone did not respond to his words, and still cried loudly on her own, venting her inner emotions.
"Aunt Xiao, stop crying... What happened? You are talking!"
Lin Yu shouted anxiously and asked repeatedly, "Can Uncle He have encountered an unexpected accident? Please explain it clearly!"
"I...I don't know..."
Xiao Manru then tried her best to control her emotions, cried a little less, and whimpered, "Since he left, he has only called me three times in the past six months..."
"I only called you three times?!"
Lin Yu was shocked when he heard this and asked hurriedly, "Didn't you agree with each other and contact each other every day?"
"That was before..."
Xiao Manru swallowed even more, "Before rushing to the border this time, he told me that the task was arduous and he had to perform tasks abroad from time to time. He often could not contact me, and to avoid the worry that I could not contact him sometimes.
So he canceled the habit of contacting me every day and called me when he returned to the base camp... I only heard the news from another place yesterday, saying that he had lost contact with the army... Woo woo
Woo…”
Speaking of this, Xiao Manru cried sadly again.
"I see……"
Lin Yu murmured with a serious expression, then changed his mind and asked hurriedly, "Why didn't you tell me yesterday? And why did you lie to me today?!"
"This is what your Uncle He ordered before leaving!"
Xiao Manru said crying.
"Uncle He ordered? What does it mean?!"
Lin Yu was confused for a moment and confused.
"Before he left, he specifically told me that no matter what happened to him, I would not be allowed to ask you for help!"
Xiao Manru cried and said, "When I called last time, I specifically told me that everything about the border was kept from you, especially his situation. Whether he was in a deep siege or died at the border, he would
Let me not tell you, let me tell you only good news and not bad news..."
"Uncle He...why did he do this..."
Lin Yu's heart seemed to be hit by something in an instant, and for a moment it was mixed and it was hard to describe it.
Although he asked a question, he had already guessed He Zizhen's intention to do so.
"He did this because he didn't want you to go to the border to take risks, but for your safety..."
Xiao Manru swallowed even more, "He also said, if the border war situation escalates, any news will be heard into Beijing. With your nature, after you know it, you will definitely rush to the border at all costs. If you insist on rushing to the border, let me no matter what.
Everyone has to dissuade you... The news of your Uncle He missing from contact these two days has spread to Beijing. I was afraid that you would find out, so I went to visit Jiang Yan every morning and afternoon to inquire about your movements with her... But I
I don't dare to see you..."
The reason why she dared not see Lin Yu was because she was afraid that she would not be able to control her emotions when she saw Lin Yu.
"Uncle He...why does he have to..."
Lin Yu's eyes suddenly turned red and his nose and hair was sore. He didn't expect that He Zizhen would care so much about his safety. He would rather die at the border by himself than take the risk of supporting him!
"Jiarong, please listen to your Uncle He's advice, and listen to my advice..."
Xiao Manru whimpered, "Stay well in Beijing and don't care about border affairs... Your Uncle He may never come back, I don't want you to go back forever..."
