Chapter 309: Bai Chao Belongs Only to Him
At eight o'clock the next morning, Shi Xing and Qi Chenyan rushed to the hospital.
The bullet in Song Zhibo's shoulder has been removed, and there is no big problem. He can be discharged from the hospital after finishing today's medicine. He just needs to be careful not to let the wound get inflamed after returning home.
When Shi Xing and the others arrived, Xu Aixue was feeding Song Zhibo with porridge. Song Zhibo was leaning against the head of the bed. His complexion was not very good due to excessive blood loss and he looked pale.
Shi Xing stepped forward and looked carefully at Song Zhibo's face. "How is it? Are you okay?"
Song Zhibo curved his lips and said, "Don't worry, Third Sister-in-law, I'm fine. I'm much better now."
Xu Aixue put down the porridge in her hand and looked back at Shi Xing: "The doctor said he lost too much blood and needs to be well rested for a while."
Shi Xing nodded, looking worried: "So will A-Bo be unable to participate in the variety show in the next few days?"
If not, Lu Li can take his place. Lu Li has been clamoring and insisting that he must attend anyway.
Xu Aixue was about to nod and say that maybe she couldn't, but Song Zhibo spoke first: "Yes, of course I can!"
Xu Aixue frowned and looked back at him, "You're still participating in a variety show with such a severe hand injury?"
Shi Xing looked at him uncertainly: "Really?"
Song Zhibo nodded affirmatively: "Yes."
He looked at Xu Aixue: "If you are going, how can I not go?"
We can't let Xu Aixue go on the show and pair up with other male guests. Even if his arm is broken, he has to go.
Shi Xing curled her lips and advised him, "Don't force yourself. Even if Ai Xue appears on the show, no one will snatch her away. If you don't take good care of your hand and it leaves you with any aftereffects, it will be bad."
Song Zhibo: "I won't force it, not at all. Besides, there are still several days left, enough for me to recover."
Qi Chenyan, who sat down on the sofa after entering the ward, also spoke at the right time: "It's just a minor injury, he's not that squeamish."
Shi Xing was helpless, "Okay then."
She originally thought that if Song Zhibo did not participate, Lu Li could take his place.
It seems that there is really no place for Lu Li now.
After all, she felt that six people were just right, while eight people were a bit too many.
Over the next few days, Shi Xing began preparing for their variety show.
Song Zhibo went back to recuperate, and Xu Aixue stayed at home with him.
Bai Chao and Lu Ci also returned to Country Z temporarily.
Lu Ci went back to arrange the company's next affairs, and Bai Chao went back to make the handover.
She had already told Lu Ci that if he caught Shang Yexun, she would step down from her current position.
From then on, there was no Baidi, only Bai Dynasty.
Bai Chao had thought about it before. She told Lu Ci that she would go to another position. In fact, she wanted to retire and work as an ordinary police officer in the police station.
For her, there is no regret in these seven years.
But just as Ueno Xun said, she often wondered whether what she was serving was worth it.
Maybe she has been touching herself.
Maybe being an ordinary police officer would allow her to do more of what she wants to do and help more people.
She had already applied before going on this mission.
Her leader didn't want to let her go and asked her to think it over carefully. It wasn't easy for her to get to this position and it would be a shame to give up just like that.
On the evening of the second day after Bai Chao captured Ueno Xun, he heard the news that Ueno Xun was deported back to Country R.
She laughed at herself and no longer hesitated.
But it is not that easy to retire from the classified forces. The above means that she can leave, but she cannot leave the country during the three-year declassification period.
Also, Ueno Xun was clearly resentful about their arrest this time, and he needed an explanation from the Z country's military.
Bai Chao's superiors hinted at a message to her that all the responsibility had been put on her, and now that she was retired, the military would no longer protect her.
What the higher-ups meant to Ueno Xun was that no matter what Ueno Xun did to Bai Chao, Country Z would not intervene.
In fact, when it comes down to it, letting Bai Chao retire so easily is also related to this incident.
Originally, the higher-ups wanted to arrest Ye Xun to appease public anger over the weapons leak.
But now that Ueno Xun has been caught, they have other considerations.
For their government, money is always the most important thing, so they pretend to let everyone know that the main culprit of the leak has been arrested, and then secretly release the main culprit.
Anyway, no one among the general public will know the truth.
As for the capitals of the various aristocratic families, they would not care about these things at all. Or rather, they care more about the economic exchanges with Country R and the financial transactions with the Kamino family.
At this time, a scapegoat is naturally needed.
Bai Chao, who wants to retire, is naturally the best choice.
Bai Chao didn't react much after hearing this, he just smiled and said, "Okay, I understand. After I leave here, I will be responsible for my own life and death."
She looked at the superior sitting in front of her with a firm gaze and said calmly, "General, don't feel guilty. I don't regret it either."
When you're done, turn around and leave.
After seven years, my father's last wish was fulfilled.
In the future, she will be a real Bai Chao.
The Bai Dynasty that belongs only to him.
Take off your gun, change your camouflage, delete your number, and leave the base.
When she reached the gate of the garrison, the guard at the gate stood at attention and saluted her, "Colonel Bai."
Bai Chao looked over and smiled, reminding him, "I'm not a colonel anymore. I've retired."
The guard was stunned for a moment, silent for two seconds, and then said, "Colonel Bai, goodbye!"
Bai Chao smiled and said, "Goodbye."
She didn't stop and walked out the door, and saw a black car parked not far away.
Lu Ci, wearing a navy blue long coat, leaned against the car door, his eyes fixed on this side.
When he saw her coming out, his eyes lit up and he walked towards her.
Bai Chao stopped and looked at him: "Why are you here?"
Lu Ci walked up to her and raised his eyebrows: "I can't come?"
Bai Chao just continued to ask him: "Do you know that I retired?"
After all, she hadn't told him she was going to retire.
Lu Ci was silent for a few seconds and sighed softly: "Ueno Xun has been released. I have contacted the Presidential Office, and the President is under a lot of pressure."
After all, the president is held hostage by capital, and many things are never decided by him alone.
Country Z has closer business ties with Country R.
Many wealthy families in Country Z have various dealings with the Ueno family. After all, the Ueno family rose to power through underworld means, and many shady things have to pass through the Ueno family's hands.
Although the Lu family is powerful, it cannot make everyone agree with its opinion. No one wants to make things too awkward with the Ueno family.
They are all worried about their family businesses and their wallets.
However, they also secretly told him that if the Ueno family wanted to give an explanation, they would probably provide a scapegoat.
Therefore, even if Bai Chao did not retire voluntarily, her superiors would not allow her to continue staying in the Eagle Department.
Only then did Lu Ci rush over immediately.
At this moment, he looked at Bai Chao in front of him.
She changed out of her camouflage and wore only a simple light beige coat. She still had no makeup on, but she looked extra soft.
It was like going back to seven years ago, and she was still the lovely girl when I first met her.
Lu Ci's eyes were also exceptionally gentle, "Don't worry, I'm here."
Bai Chao curled his lips and smiled: "I'm not worried without you."
She walked around him and headed towards his car. "I'm hungry. I want to eat steak. Please make it for me."
Lu Ci: “…”
He tilted his head to look at her back and smiled helplessly.
Okay, now it's cuter.
Lu Ci turned around and followed her, putting his arm around her waist and lifting her up.
Bai Chao smiled and hugged his neck, sitting on his arm, looking down at him: "Why, you don't want to do it?"
"Do."
Lu Ci held her in his arms, looking up at her, "I'll make whatever you want to eat, for the rest of my life."
Bai Chao's smile deepened: "So, I want to eat you?"
Lu Ci's eyes darkened instantly.
Now he had reached the car. He opened the door with one hand and 'threw' her in, then squeezed in as well. Once the door closed, he leaned over and pressed it down. "I can't do this by myself."
He pinched her chin, locked eyes with her, lowered his head, kissed her lips, and lowered his voice: "We need Chaochao's help before we can do this."
