South to North: A Prison Guard at the Beginning

Chapter 332: Time in Kyoto begins the countdown

"Okay, Xiaobai, this is also for work. Xiaomu is still young, so she should work hard now." Zhou Zhennan said at this time.

He himself is a workaholic, especially when he was young, and he and Tang Zhenghua were rarely together. Sometimes they even lived apart, so he could understand Yuan Mu.

Although he could understand it, Tang Zhenghua was not happy about it. Maybe she was also thinking about things from her youth.

"Old Zhou, I don't like what you said. It's fine to be busy with work, but you also have to take care of your family. You can't just be busy with work and ignore your family like you were when you were young, right?"

"At that time, I was the only one taking care of Xiaobai. I had to work, take care of the child, and cook!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhennan's temper instantly died down. He lowered his head to drink and did not dare to respond. He was in the wrong in the first place.

"Mom, I will try to go home more often in the future. I will come back whenever I can. Now the special police detachment is on the right track. Once I sort out some things, there will be no problem." Yuan Mu said quickly.

After dinner, Yuan Mu followed Zhou Zhennan to the study, and they sat on the sofa.

Zhou Zhennan took out a box of cigarettes from the coffee table, took out a cigarette and handed it to Yuan Mu, then he also took one in his mouth. Yuan Mu took out a lighter and lit it for him and then for himself, and the two of them started puffing smoke.

"Xiao Mu, I met the big boss today, and he praised you to me." Zhou Zhennan said with a smile.

"Ah? Really? He is so busy, but he still remembers me?" Yuan Mu said in surprise.

"Of course. You have left a deep impression on him." Zhou Zhennan nodded with a smile.

"Really? I still have to trouble him to think about me. He has so many things to do every day. It's really a sin."

"Well, you can't say that. After all, everyone has seen your performance." Zhou Zhennan waved his hand and changed the subject.

"Xiao Mu, you've been at the police station for too long. It's time to move to another place."

"Oh? Do you want me to leave?" Yuan Mu looked at Zhou Zhennan. Actually, he had this idea a long time ago, but he had too many things on hand. He couldn't just give up, right?

"Well, it will be very difficult to get promoted in the future without local experience because the limitations are too great. But you don't have local work experience either, so you may be assigned a deputy position in advance so that you can adapt yourself first." Zhou Zhennan nodded.

"Where will I go then?"

"I don't know yet, but you definitely can't leave this year. The SWAT team still needs you. Take advantage of the time this year to deal with the team's affairs. I guess there will be some action after the New Year next year."

"Oh! I'm really afraid that I won't be able to do a good job. I've had no problems with the police, procuratorate, and courts, but this is my first time working in a place like this."

"What's the big deal? You're not born with the ability to catch thieves. With your ability, you can study hard and there will be no problem. I still believe in you on this point." Zhou Zhennan said with a smile.

"Well, I will definitely do it well!"

"When you go to the local area, it will be different from when you were in the police station. You must pay attention to uniting the comrades around you and not just act recklessly."

"Yes, I will definitely listen to you and unite with the comrades around me."

"Sometimes political struggle is more dangerous than fighting a criminal to the death. It is a knife that kills without shedding blood. You must always be on your guard."

"When you get there, don't take sides easily, don't express your thoughts easily, and keep your composure. That way you've already won half the battle."

Then Zhou Zhennan talked to him a lot, all about political matters, and Yuan Mu listened carefully. If possible, he really didn't want to go there, as there were too many things to do.

If you work in the government, you have to consider GDP, but you also have to be wary of others trying to do bad things to you. You have to always be on guard against people corrupting you. If you are not careful, you may be dragged down.

"Dad, if I go somewhere, what will happen to Xiaobai and Zhihao?"

"You can't take the child with you, he's too young. As for Xiaobai, he must go with you. After all, you two have only been married for a few years. You've been together less than you have been apart in the same city. It's definitely not okay to live apart."

"I'll take a look at it when the time comes. Mainly, I'll see where you go. I'll make some arrangements to transfer her to the local military hospital." Zhou Zhennan said after thinking for a while.

"Of course I can, but it will be hard on my mother." Yuan Mu nodded with a wry smile.

"It's okay. Your mother is enjoying herself. As long as you two are well, that's enough." Zhou Zhennan waved his hand.

"Hey Xiao Mu, what do you think about letting Xiaobai retire and transfer to another place?" Zhou Zhennan suddenly asked.

Yuan Mu was stunned, then shook his head.

"Dad, that won't work. Xiaobai really likes this job. She also likes the army. I can't let her give up her career just because of my job. What would I become then?"

"Let her continue to work in the military hospital. If it really doesn't work out, I can just come back from Chang."

Zhou Zhennan nodded with satisfaction.

"Well, I'm still very happy that you can consider Xiaobai."

Yuan Mu was stunned. He looked at Zhou Zhennan. Was this old man testing him? If he agreed to Zhou Xiaobai's retirement and transfer to a local place, would he become an egoist in Zhou Zhennan's mind?

This old man is really scheming. He and Xiaobai are husband and wife, so how could he let her do something she doesn't like?

. . . . . . .

After chatting with Zhou Zhennan for about an hour, he took the child and Zhou Xiaobai home. Zhou Zhennan's driver took them both home.

After returning home, Zhou Xiaobai took a shower first, while Yuan Mu was responsible for coaxing the boy to sleep.

It’s no wonder that this kid has changed a lot during the time he was away. Maybe he was really sleepy, and he fell asleep after he coaxed him for a while.

So he took off his clothes and tiptoed into the bathroom.

"Ah! What are you doing! Hey, can't you wait a moment and talk outside?" Zhou Xiaobai's exclamation was heard soon.

"Don't make any noise, my son just fell asleep."

"Hey, don't move, I haven't finished washing yet."

"It's okay, I'll help you wash it."

Soon, the bathroom was filled with spring scenes. Zhou Xiaobai's low moans were heard, and they became louder and louder. About half an hour later, with a low roar from Yuan Mu, the battle ended.

Twenty minutes later, the two came out of the bathroom. Zhou Xiaobai was wearing pajamas and his face was flushed. He was obviously very satisfied.

The two of them got on the bed and leaned against the edge of it, with Zhou Xiaobai snuggling in Yuan Mu's arms.

"Xiao Mu, what did Dad tell you before?"

"Oh, he told me about the change of place."
