Six hundred and sixty-five, rejected again

Zhang Xiaoling returned home exhausted and lay down on the sofa immediately. She really was on the brink of collapse today, devoid of any strength in her body. Plus, with Yang Le having been on a mission these past few days, she couldn't help feeling anxious. She wondered how he was doing and when he would return. She wanted to inquire, but it concerned Guard military secrets; even if she did ask around, nobody would tell her.

"Knock, knock, knock!" The sound of knocking arose.

Zhang Xiaoling truly didn't want to answer the door, but the lights were on; it would be clear to anyone that she was home, and it seemed inappropriate not to answer.

She dragged herself up, with her weary legs, and went to open the door.

She was somewhat surprised to see an unfamiliar Guard's Wife at the door. "Who are you?"

"Sister Yang, I'm new here from Squadron Leader Shen's family, may I come in and sit?" Guo Moli asked cheerfully.
