A reborn woman abducts her husband: after emptying his pockets, she marries a military officer.

Chapter 148 Operation Darkness

But thinking of Jiang Yueqiao's mild depression, he could only sigh inwardly and try to keep his tone as gentle as possible: "Yueqiao, you can find something to do. Your personality is not suited to being a devoted wife and mother who puts her husband first. You don't need to wrong yourself. I think if Ouyang Jian knew you were so unhappy, he would definitely support you in doing something else."

"What else can I do besides singing and dancing?" Jiang Yueqiao murmured. "Xiao Qing is still too young; I can't teach her even if I wanted to."

"You come from a performing arts troupe, so you're perfectly capable of doing arts work. You can wait for Ouyang Jian to come back and discuss it with him..." Qin Yingxue suggested after thinking for a moment.

She didn't know much about the military and offered limited advice.

But Jiang Yueqiao's eyes lit up, and her face lit up as she said, "Yingxue, you're absolutely right. Although the stationed troops are only one battalion, there are still more than a thousand soldiers. I don't need to go back to the cultural troupe at all, and I can find something I like to do here. Yingxue, thank you."

Jiang Yueqiao was overjoyed and reached out to hug Qin Yingxue, unable to contain his excitement.

This was the first time Qin Yingxue had ever seen Jiang Yueqiao so emotionally expressive. No, it seemed that she never hid her emotions or thoughts from herself. In fact, this was the first time Qin Yingxue had ever seen her so radiant.

It seems that these past few days have been very stressful for her.

That's true. People who usually live a glamorous life will feel lost and confused when they suddenly lose the applause and flowers and can't find their life goals.

Being able to comfort and console her helped Qin Yingxue's mood improve.

"Don't you want to go back?" Qin Yingxue asked with a smile.

A blush rose to Jiang Yueqiao's face, and she gave Qin Yingxue a playful glare: "Are you making fun of me? I was just being stubborn for a moment..."

"I understand, I understand." Qin Yingxue nodded with a smile.

"Yingxue, how did you adapt back then? Especially with your mother-in-law following you around, you must have found it very difficult at first!" Jiang Yueqiao asked with concern.

Not used to it?

Qin Yingxue shook her head, "That's not true at all!"

She was focused on making money and was afraid that time would pass too quickly, so she had no time to think about anything else.

Later, when she became pregnant, all she could think about was how to ensure a safe pregnancy and how to help her babies grow up healthy.

To be honest, even Song Yanchuan ranked second.

Jiang Yueqiao's almond-shaped eyes widened, her face full of disbelief: "Yingxue, how do you get along with your mother-in-law? Song Yanchuan isn't here, what do you do to pass the time every day?"

Qin Yingxue thought for a moment, then mentioned the Bai brothers from the small fishing village and briefly discussed Yang Weijun's situation with her.

Jiang Yueqiao was shocked. After a long while, she looked at her with admiration and said, "No wonder I saw two teenagers and a child surrounding you that day. I was wondering if you were related to them. So that's what happened. You and Battalion Commander Song are both good people. It's their good fortune to have met you."

"It's not a matter of luck or not. We couldn't just ignore it when we saw them, so we helped them if we could. Now that we see they're doing well, we're at ease," Qin Yingxue smiled.

"I know what I need to do. There are many meaningful things in life, and I won't dwell on this anymore," Jiang Yueqiao said with a determined look on her face.

Seeing Qin Yingxue looking at her in surprise, Jiang Yueqiao laughed and said, "After all, I'm Xiaoshiqing's godmother! Once he can talk, I'll be quite busy!"

Seeing that she had come back to life, Qin Yingxue secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Yueqiao was a decisive and energetic person. After deciding on his future life goals, he saw that Sanbao was sleeping soundly. He lingered for a while, reluctant to leave, before taking his leave.

Watching her departing figure, Qin Yingxue couldn't help but reveal a thoughtful expression on her face.

Men are generally carefree and not as thoughtful as women.

When Ouyang Jian returns, Song Yanchuan will have to remind him of a few things.

As long as the young couple is loving and sweet, the people around them will be happy too.

But was this bandit suppression operation successful?

At this moment, Song Yanchuan was hiding in a dense forest. He had sneaked into Shiku Island at midnight last night. The bandits' hideout was actually a natural stone cave. So far, only one exit had been discovered, heavily guarded by bandits. Not even a fly could get in.

Those sent out to find another way out have not yet returned, so everyone can only lie low here and remain inactive.

After eating some dry rations, Xu Fang returned: "Battalion Commander, there's another entrance near the beach. They have two fishing boats. I've roughly estimated that they have about thirty or forty men so far. Wu Hongjun is guarding that side..."

"Liu Xin, go and inform Battalion Commander Ouyang so he can see the signal and coordinate the operation," Song Yanchuan ordered.

"Yes, Battalion Commander." Liu Xin quickly accepted the order and left, standing side by side.

"Battalion Commander, when do we move out?" Xu Fang asked, his eyes shining.

"Wait until dark." Song Yanchuan turned around and looked at the elite team. "Huang Xinqun and Niu Xiaoqiang, keep watch. The rest of you, get some rest. We'll move out tonight."

"Yes." Everyone lowered their voices and quickly found the nearest hiding place to rest.

Night fell quickly. When the bandits at the cave entrance changed shifts, a group dressed in night clothes quickly sneaked up and, before the bandits could react, had their throats slit.

Everything proceeded silently. After the four men in front dragged the bandit's body into the bushes, they made a gesture toward the woods.

Song Yanchuan and the other six well-trained men appeared and entered the cave without any hindrance.

The four people in front made a gesture about fifty meters ahead.

Song Yanchuan led his men forward, only to find that fifty meters beyond the cave lay a completely different world.

You could say this is a paradise on earth, with its scattered houses and the barking of livestock, making it no different from any other small fishing village.

But they burned, killed, and looted villagers on nearby islands, their hands already stained with human blood...

They crept up to the highest and most imposing house, where there were two stone lions at the entrance and two guards on either side.

Before he could react, his throat was slit again.

This time, Song Yanchuan took the lead and made a gesture to the group members behind him.

Xu Fang led two people up the wall. Several sounds of fighting came from inside. Then the heavy gate opened, and Xu Fang nodded to Song Yanchuan.

The others filed in, and just as they reached the center of the courtyard, flames shot into the sky, and at the same time a group of burly men rushed out of the house.

Song Yanchuan quickly stopped, raising his gun and aiming at the tallest and strongest man in the middle: "Wu Tianba, you're surrounded! Surrender now..."

Before Song Yanchuan could finish speaking, Wu Tianba laughed contemptuously, "Damn it, you think you can capture us with just ten men surrounding us while the other brothers are out at sea? That's laughable! Brothers! Kill them! Killing one isn't a loss, killing two is a bonus, killing three..."
