The leaders were all stunned when they heard this. They had only intended to deal with a domestic violence case, but they did not expect to have such an unexpected gain.

At that moment, Zhang Laifu really wanted to disappear on the spot, but in the end, he couldn't escape.

At that moment, everyone's eyes were on him. He hurriedly explained, "I didn't know about this. If that's true, it's my fault. I didn't educate my wife properly. If this is true, I'm willing to accept any punishment."

Ren Rongzheng also felt that Zhang Laifu was a real man, a hundred times better than Guo Jinbiao, otherwise he wouldn't be a regimental commander.

"A regimental commander's wife gossiped behind people's backs and tried to ruin their marriage, and a veteran of many years actually beat his own wife after listening to a few words of instigation from others."

Are these soldiers from our military region? Is this how the Party and the people educate you? You're a disgrace to the military!

After all, we're in a hospital now. There are no secrets that stay hidden forever. If word gets out, how can the military maintain their credibility in the eyes of the people?

Zhang Laifu dared not speak in response to the commander's reprimand; he could only listen. Guo Jinbiao was then taken back to the military region to await its decision. As for Wang Yuxia, her wishes were ascertained, and she was determined to get a divorce.

"Comrade Wang Yuxia, marriage is not a game, and divorce is even less so. You have thought this through carefully before deciding to divorce Guo Jinbiao," Zhan Beiqin asked.

“I am certain that I am determined to divorce Guo Jinbiao. Regardless of who is right or wrong, I don’t want any of the property. I only want my son Chunlin. As long as my son can stay with me, I have no other demands.”

As Wang Yuxia spoke, Zhan Beiqin carefully noted it down. As long as it was confirmed that Wang Yuxia was determined and Guo Jinbiao had indeed committed domestic violence, then regardless of Guo Jinbiao's personal thoughts, the military would approve Wang Yuxia's divorce request.

Zhan Beiqin remained in the ward to conduct questioning, while the other leaders came out first. Taking an opportunity, Jiang Linhai walked up to Ren Rongzheng and whispered:

"I heard you beat up Comrade Guo Jinbiao, is that true? When did you learn kung fu?"

When asked when she learned kung fu, Ren Rongzheng found it quite amusing. Had she scared Jiang Linhai?

"It just shows that Battalion Commander Jiang still doesn't understand me well enough. You should be glad that even though I hated you so much when you broke off our engagement, I didn't beat you up before I threw myself into the river."

Jiang Linhai was speechless for a moment when he heard this. It was definitely not his own idea to break off the engagement; it was his parents who were too determined, and he could not go against them.

"Battalion Commander Jiang, my husband is getting a promotion after the military reorganization. He's been working in the military region, so I think you probably know about it."

Any man would mind if his wife still had ties with her ex, and my husband is no exception. So, I hope Battalion Commander Jiang will have some self-respect and stop sneaking around trying to talk to me. I don't really want to talk to you.

After Ren Rongzheng finished speaking, he quickened his pace and walked away, leaving Jiang Linhai alone, heartbroken.

Perhaps he really should let go. There's no use in not letting go now. After Ren Rongzheng was dumped by him, he turned around and found a higher position than him. Soon, Zhan Beiqin's position was even higher than his. What delusions could he possibly have?

-

After Guo Jinbiao was brought back to the military region, just like Jiang Linhai had been, he was first locked in a solitary confinement room. The specific course of action would have to be decided by the military.

The one who is having the hardest time right now is Guo Jinbiao and Zhang Laifu, who were summoned to the leader's office and given a severe scolding.

Writing a self-criticism is a minor matter; at this crucial time of reorganization, it's likely that he will have a real hard time keeping his position as regimental commander.

Jiang Shufen was also at home and dared not go out, but Zhang Laifu had not come home, so she couldn't help but have wild thoughts. Had Guo Jinbiao betrayed her? Had Zhang Laifu been implicated because of her?

She didn't dare to go herself, so she could only ask her son, Zhang Guoqiang, to inquire at the military region. Zhang Guoqiang was also extremely opposed, but he couldn't resist her nagging and finally went anyway.

During the time she was waiting for Zhang Guoqiang to return, Jiang Shufen was in a state of utter turmoil. The more she thought about it, the more panicked she became!

"Guoqiang, did you see your dad at the military region?"

Upon seeing Zhang Guoqiang return, Jiang Shufen immediately ran over to ask him.

“I didn’t see him, but I asked one of my dad’s subordinates and he said that several of their military region leaders went to the hospital. After they came back, my dad went to the leaders’ offices and hasn’t come out since.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Shufen's legs went completely weak, and she collapsed to the ground, slapping her legs hard with both hands.

"It's all over, it's really all over this time!"

"What's wrong with you guys now? What happened?"

Jiang Shufen remained silent, her mind in turmoil, unable to hear what Zhang Guoqiang was saying.

What if Zhang Laifu is implicated and punished because of her? What if he really loses his position as regimental commander?

She had originally planned to report Zheng Hongjun if he came and promoted Zhan Beiqin, but now that she was in trouble herself, how could she report him?

When Zhan Beiqin made a mistake last time, she even mocked Ren Rongzheng. Now that the tables have turned, isn't Ren Rongzheng going to take advantage of her?

"Guoqiang, you stay home for now, I'm going to the military region."

"Why did you insist on making me go earlier? What are you going to do now?"

Jiang Shufen completely ignored what Zhang Guoqiang was saying and hurriedly ran to the military region. It was her fault, and she couldn't let Zhang Laifu be implicated because of her. She had to apologize to the military region leaders.

Jiang Shufen rushed to the military region, but as soon as she reached the gate, she saw Zhang Laifu coming out.

"Laifu!"

Upon seeing Jiang Shufen arrive, Zhang Laifu, who was already looking worried, became even more so.

"Didn't I tell you to stay home? What are you doing at the military region again?"

“I asked Guoqiang to inquire, and Guoqiang has already told me that Guo Jinbiao, that bastard, implicated me, didn’t he? You’re saying I’ve been implicated, aren’t you?”

Zhang Laifu remained silent, and silence now meant tacit agreement.

"Ugh, my meddlesome mouth!" Jiang Shufen slapped herself hard across the face. "This is a new society now. I'm not a soldier anymore. You can't let my mistake affect your position, can you? I'm going to find your commander, I'm going to apologize, I'm going to..."

"Where are you going? Haven't you caused me enough trouble already? I've told you this again and again, but you just wouldn't listen. Now look what's happened!"

"Jiang Shufen, I'm giving you a serious warning. It seems you can't control your mouth. If you cause any more trouble, I'm divorcing you!"

"Divorce...divorce?!"

Hearing those two words, Jiang Shufen was truly terrified. They had been married for so many years, and although they had argued and bickered, they had never uttered those two words before.

"Yes, divorce. Because of Guo Jinbiao's domestic violence, Wang Yuxia has applied to the military for a divorce, and her divorce application will be approved soon."

Jiang Shufen, their divorce is entirely your fault. If you continue to be unrepentant, I'll be the next one filing for divorce, and you'll be the one getting divorced. Do you hear me?
