I emptied my family's possessions to join the army, and my abstinent superior doted on me.

Chapter 94 She is the other woman

"No, sister-in-law. Don't misunderstand."

"It's a misunderstanding! They're a married couple, all lovey-dovey together. Can't you see that?"
Oh, so he got off work late, and even though he's in a wheelchair, the big boss still insisted on picking him up personally!

How loving they are!

"What business is it of yours here, Tang Yazhu? If you don't come back with us, I'll look down on you for the rest of my life."

The more her sister-in-law talked, the more disappointed she became.

"Yazhu, is this the man you can't let go of?" The man with black-rimmed glasses had a sinister voice, like the hoarse cawing of a crow in the dark night.

"No, no, Xiangdong, listen to your aunt. This person is paralyzed, how can you not let go?"
Ya Zhu is just kind-hearted; she sympathizes with him from the past. This isn't romantic love.

Tang Yazhu's mother tried her best to comfort the man, but the tense expression on his face did not improve at all.

"Chen Xiangdong, didn't we already make things clear? My marriage to you was arranged by our parents, so you should just forget about me. We don't need to see each other again."

"Tang Yazhu, I've come all this way, haven't I given you plenty of face? If you don't want to acknowledge it, fine, but the whole factory knows that I, Chen Xiangdong, am going to marry you, Tang Yazhu. And you're telling me you don't want to acknowledge it?"

The man grabbed Tang Yazhu's wrist tightly and swung it forcefully.

"What are you doing? Are you going to hit a woman? Or a female soldier?"

Qian Lai questioned him sharply.

The man was clearly angered by her "meddling": "What business is it of yours, my family's business? A female soldier? She's my betrothed."

Since she's my wife, I have the right to discipline her.

The man forcefully shoved Tang Yazhu away, the immense force sending her hurtling towards Gu Hanchuan, nearly causing her to fall onto his wheelchair.

Gu Hanchuan reacted quickly and caught Tang Yazhu.

The two looked at each other.

Gu Hanchuan quickly released his hand, his face gloomy. His knuckles were white as he held the wheelchair, and his eyes were blazing with fire, yet he remained silent.

Qian Lai, however, could not tolerate even a little bit.

"Auntie, sister-in-law, you both saw it, didn't you? This man hits women."

"Are you really willing to let my sister Yazhu marry a man like that and spend her whole life with him?"

Tang Yazhu pouted, gazing at Gu Hanchuan with a look of utter grievance.

She was actually waiting for an answer.

Will Gu Hanchuan still protect her like before, no matter what danger arises, even if she is just being insulted?
However, before Gu Hanchuan could react, Tang Yazhu's sister-in-law went berserk towards Qian Lai.

"Who are you? It's none of your business to interfere in our sister's marriage."

Oh, I see! You're showing off, aren't you?

She thought she was a high-ranking official's wife just because she became Gu Hanchuan's woman!

"Pah! The Gu family is a den of demons. I'd like to see how you manage to live your life marrying a man like that!"

The noise from the group disturbed the neighbors who were enjoying the cool evening air.

More and more people gathered.

The bespectacled man knew that if he continued to argue like this, he would probably suffer the consequences.

In that case, not only will she be unable to take the person with her, but she will also be accused of insulting female soldiers by the military family members, which would be a great loss.

"Tang Yazhu, I'm giving you one more chance. Tell me, are you going to come back with us, or stay here and take care of this cripple?"

He reached out again to grab Tang Yazhu's wrist, but Gu Hanchuan in the wheelchair grabbed it firmly.

With just a gentle pry, the bespectacled man immediately fell to one knee in pain, yelling loudly.

"Look, military leaders are beating up civilians!"

"Ouch, ouch, my wrist is going to break! Oh my god, help!"

Gu Hanchuan's training over the past few months has yielded remarkable results. Now, breaking an iron weight is probably as easy as turning his hand.

"Chen Xiangdong, I've said it before, I will never go with you. Forget about it."

When Tang Yazhu’s mother and sister-in-law saw that Chen Xiangdong was no match for Gu Hanchuan, they rushed over and desperately tried to save Chen Xiangdong.

But then Gu Hanchuan said in a low but powerful voice, "Listen to me carefully. The military region is not a place for you to cause trouble. Soldiers are not people you can disrespect at will. Also, I am paralyzed. But if I see someone beating a woman, I can still beat them every time I see it."

I keep my word.

Gu Hanchuan finally let go, and Chen Xiangdong lay on the ground, feeling as if his bones had been deformed.

"Get out of here and don't let us see you in the military region again."

Qian Lai was like a little leopard riding a general, flaunting his power even while borrowing the general's authority.

"Yes! Get out. The military compound isn't a place just anyone can walk into."

The surrounding crowd overwhelmingly drove away the unwelcome person.

"Tang Yazhu, you've really gone too far. You've got some wild man backing you up now, haven't you!"
Let me tell you, it's not that simple. The dowry my family gave you, and the job my family helped you find for your sister-in-law's brother—you'll have to get it all back.

Otherwise, your Tang family won't have any peace and quiet.

"Xiangdong, please stop! Let's talk this out. She just hasn't figured it out yet. Give her some more time, we'll definitely find a way to persuade her." Tang Yazhu's sister-in-law jumped up and down anxiously.

She is truly hateful.

For the sake of her own fleeting love, she was willing to let her younger brother's newly acquired permanent factory job slip away.

no! Definitely not!
She absolutely cannot agree to that!

Tang Yazhu's eyes were red as she approached Qian Lai, looking at Chen Xiangdong's furiously twisted face.

"Mom, sister-in-law, please pass on a message to my brother. I would rather never marry than marry Chen Xiangdong."

Besides, I have more important things to do now. I'm not going back. Even if it means death, I won't go back.

Tang Yazhu looked at Gu Hanchuan, but he turned his gaze away.

"Yazhu, you're so foolish."

"Mom, let's go. This isn't over."

Tang's mother was still unwilling to give up and tried to pull her daughter away, but her daughter-in-law angrily pulled her up and walked out of the courtyard.

"Hey, no more cars, let's walk!" A line of kids followed behind, watching the commotion and egging them on.

The onlookers gradually dispersed; seeing Gu Hanchuan there, no one dared to make a sound.

Now that they've gone a bit further, some people can't help but start whispering among themselves.

As people walked away, Qian Lai paid no attention to how unpleasant Gu Hanchuan's expression was. She only focused on Tang Yazhu's red and swollen wrist.

"Sister Yazhu, come to my house, I'll put some medicine on you."

"Who gave her permission to come to my house?"

Gu Hanchuan remained as cold as ever.

"Chief, others may not know, but don't you know? Sister Yazhu is devoted to you, and you're the only one in her heart."

"Do you still want to let her down?" Qian Lai whispered in his ear, her voice low.

Relying on her own strength, it would probably take forever to push the stubborn Gu Hanchuan to take this difficult step forward.

But right now, my maternal grandmother and aunt have arrived.

Instead, we should take this opportunity to give the Gu family a warning and push them to reconcile as soon as possible.

Qian Lai made up his mind and said, "It's time to resolve your issues. Otherwise, the three of us will hardly ever see each other in this compound."

In this world, perhaps only Qian Lai could speak so frankly to Gu Hanchuan without any regard for consequences.

Gu Hanchuan knew that Qian Lai was not afraid of his temper at all, and was like a stubborn mule, as if he had no chance to "cut" her.

He was somewhat at a loss when faced with Qian Lai.

Two women walked home hand in hand.

It seemed no one cared about Gu Hanchuan, who was following behind in a wheelchair with a dark expression.

Little did he know that the next two days would keep Qian Lai and Xiao Li extremely busy.

Everything will be revealed on the day of the family banquet.
