Chapter 24 Missing Person Notice from Haicheng
Seeing the panting man rushing back so hurriedly, only to worry about whether she had eaten, An Min's heart, which had just calmed down, instantly raced again.

So this is what it feels like to be cared for.

Liang Yi stood at the door, his Adam's apple bobbing, a thousand emotions welling up in his chest, which ultimately turned into a soft cough.

"what happened?"

Anmin stood in that soft light, a slight smile playing on her lips, a hint of smugness in her expression.

Even the well-informed head of the regiment was stunned; her busy day had not been in vain.

Liang Yi avoided her gaze and instead looked at the small dining table.

There sat a lone, half-eaten cornbread, now cold and hard, next to an empty bowl.

His expression suddenly darkened, and his brows furrowed: "You only ate a cornbread bun today?"

His voice was clearly filled with anger, not directed at her, but at himself.

Before An Min could even finish saying she wasn't hungry, Liang Yi turned and left.

Anmin was completely stunned by what she saw.

What was he doing? He came and went.

In no time, Liang Yi returned, carrying a large enamel basin commonly used in military canteens.

The aroma of stewed cabbage and tofu filled the room, with cornbread buns on the side.

He placed the large basin on the table, the soup sloshing about.

"Eat quickly."

After saying that, Liang Yi casually stuffed the chopsticks into An Min's hand, and then pulled over a stool next to him and sat down.

Anmin tilted her head slightly, picked up her chopsticks, and sat down next to him.

"Is this meal meant to be my last meal before I'm executed?"

Looking at his stern face, anyone who didn't know better would think she was a green recruit he was training.

Upon hearing this, Liang Yi's stern face softened slightly, and he sighed helplessly.

She's quite good at making people happy.

However, he now understood why Anmin was so thin. People need food to survive; if you don't eat for a day, you'll get hungry.

His greenhorn recruits would cry out in despair if they didn't get to eat at mealtimes.

Unlike Anmin, who can go hungry for a whole day without making a sound.

“If you can’t cook, go to the cafeteria. If you keep going hungry, you’ll get sick from hunger.”

As soon as he finished speaking, An Min, holding the cornbread in her hand, said, "I'm not always hungry, I just forget when I get busy."

"It's too expensive to eat in the cafeteria, and it's not like we don't have a kitchen at home."

As she spoke, Anmin looked at another room, looking somewhat troubled: "But I don't know how to use that thing."

Hearing this, Liang Yi hummed in agreement: "I'll teach you how to use it when I get back. I have a mission..."

Just as he was about to say that he still had a mission to complete, he heard footsteps outside.

“Minmin!”

Qin Shulan's voice came through, clearly reaching her ears. An Min frowned slightly, put down what she was holding, and got up to walk to the door.

"Auntie? What's wrong?"

What is Qin Shulan doing here at this hour?
An Min had a bad feeling, especially when she saw Qin Shulan's flustered appearance.

"Minmin, something terrible has happened, look!"

Qin Shulan was holding a newspaper. When she saw An Min, she unfolded the newspaper and pointed to the second page, saying, "Look, this is what your dad published."

An Min's gaze fell on the spot Qin Shulan was pointing to.

The bold headline in the newspaper was eye-catching and jarring.

"Missing Person Notice! An Min, a 20-year-old woman from the An family in Haicheng, eloped with an unknown man a month ago, taking all the family's valuables. Anyone with information about her whereabouts is urged to contact An Zhijie immediately. A generous reward will be offered!"

The following section goes on to describe in great detail how An Min was "fickle," "unfaithful," and "bewitched by wicked men."

Every word they uttered was an attempt to smear her, to nail her to the pillar of shame, and to completely destroy her reputation!
A bone-chilling cold instantly shot from the soles of her feet to the top of her head, and Anmin's fingers gripped the edge of the newspaper so tightly that they turned white.

They actually used such methods to slander her...

This idea definitely didn't come from Andy On; it must have been Qian Xue and An Lu. Only women know where a woman's fatal weakness lies.

They're really ruthless; she's already escaped far away, but they still won't let her go.

She thought that by emptying her possessions and leaving that hellhole, she could find some peace and quiet.

I never expected that family of vampires would catch up with me so quickly using such despicable methods.

Disgusting! Absolutely disgusting!
"Shameless! How could they..."

An Min's voice trembled with barely suppressed hatred.

Qin Shulan was both anxious and angry: "Yes, Minmin, this...this is utter nonsense! It's so unfair! They're trying to ruin your reputation!"

"You need to think of something quickly, or... or try to explain to Commander Liang..."

The aunt glanced worriedly into the room, fearing that the newlyweds would run into such trouble and affect their relationship.

As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened and Liang Yi walked out slowly.

He had somehow appeared beside An Min, his gaze sweeping over the contents of the newspaper.

Anmin could clearly sense the change in the man's aura beside her.

The helplessness and concern I felt when facing her just now vanished instantly, replaced by a heart-pounding feeling.

It was as calm as the storm was brewing.

His aura suddenly became fierce and oppressive, and even the temperature in the room seemed to drop a few degrees.

Liang Yi didn't speak immediately; he simply reached out and took the newspaper from An Min's hand.

He folded the newspaper and put it in his pocket.

Liang Yi's voice was unusually calm, eerily calm: "Auntie, please sit down. I understand about this."

Qin Shulan was intimidated by his imposing manner, but she went inside and sat down on the chair next to him, not daring to make a sound.

Liang Yi raised his eyes and looked at An Min.

At this moment, Anmin's face was deathly pale, her lips were tightly pressed together, and her beautiful eyes were filled with anger and grievance.

It really looks like they've suffered a tremendous injustice.

"Anmin, lift your head."

He spoke, his voice low and firm.

An Min was slightly taken aback, and subconsciously raised her chin to look into his deep, ocean-like eyes.

"look at me."

Liang Yi's voice carried a strange soothing power, yet contained a thunderous rage.

He was angry, because of Anmin.

How could there be such a father in this world?

Using such vicious and malicious words to slander one's own daughter.

"You are my wife, my lawfully wedded wife, not the kind of person they slander!"

“Our marriage is protected by law and by the state. He has no right to spout nonsense.”

At this point, Liang Yi paused, his tone suddenly turning stern.

"I was just worried about not being able to find him, but he just happened to run into me."

A cold smile curled at the corner of Liang Yi's lips, revealing a hint of contempt.

Upon hearing this, An Min seemed to sense Liang Yi's thoughts and quickly asked, "What are you going to do?"

"It's not worth it to sacrifice yourself for someone like that."

An Min knows An Zhijie and Qian Xue, as well as Zheng Tianyou and An Lu, all too well.

In essence, Andy On is a man who lacks responsibility.

When her mother fell on hard times, she had no choice but to choose Andy On as her protector. But after all these years, Andy On is still a hopeless case.

But Qian Xue is much smarter than An Zhijie; she's a master at using someone else's strength against them.

This newspaper must have been Qian Xue's idea. Wasn't her purpose to use this humiliating newspaper to force her to go back?
Thank you to all the billionaires who voted for me! Love you all, muah! (reaches in and takes the vote)
