A scumbag man trying to climb the social ladder? She turns around and marries a celibate military of

He took a deep breath, trying to suppress his agitation, and walked towards Mu Xiaowan.

"Xiao Wan." Chu Junbai's voice was low and restrained, yet carried a hint of undeniable coldness.

Hearing the voice, Mu Xiaowan looked up and saw Chu Junbai. A look of surprise flashed across her face, followed by a smile: "Junbai? What brings you here?"

Chu Junbai did not answer, his gaze sweeping over Liu Weiguo beside her, his eyes cold. Liu Weiguo noticed his gaze, smiled slightly, and nodded politely: "Captain Chu, long time no see."

Chu Junbai gave a faint reply, his gaze returning to Mu Xiaowan: "Have you been very busy lately?"

Mu Xiaowan nodded, her voice tinged with weariness: "Yes, the hotel's renovation is progressing a bit fast, I have to keep an eye on it, otherwise I'm afraid there will be problems."

Chu Junbai frowned: "No matter how busy you are, you have to take care of your health. Look at you, you've gotten so tanned."

Mu Xiaowan smiled and waved her hand: "It's okay, getting a tan is healthier."

Before Chu Junbai could say anything more, Liu Weiguo interrupted, "Xiao Wan, there seems to be a problem with the wall material here. Let's go take a look."

Mu Xiaowan nodded and turned to Chu Junbai, saying, "Junbai, wait for me a moment. I'll be right there after I finish this."

As Chu Junbai watched the two figures walk away side by side, the irritation in his heart intensified. He stood there, his gaze fixed on Mu Xiaowan's figure, but his heart felt as if something was gripping it tightly.

"Are they... really just colleagues?" Chu Junbai couldn't help but wonder again.

The intimate actions between Liu Weiguo and Mu Xiaowan aroused a strange sense of crisis in him.

Chu Junbai's gaze followed Mu Xiaowan. She and Liu Weiguo were standing by the wall, heads bowed, discussing something with focused and serious expressions. Chu Junbai's jealousy surged up again, and he couldn't help but walk towards them.

"Xiao Wan, I have something to say to you." Chu Junbai's voice was deep and restrained, yet carried a hint of undeniable coldness.

Mu Xiaowan looked up and saw that Chu Junbai's expression was a little off, and her heart tightened: "Junbai, what's wrong? What happened?"

Chu Junbai did not answer, his gaze sweeping over Liu Weiguo with a cold look. Liu Weiguo noticed his gaze, smiled slightly, and said politely, "Mr. Chu, you two talk, I'll go take a look over there first."

After Liu Weiguo left, Chu Junbai said coldly, "Xiao Wan, why did Liu Weiguo look at you so strangely? You've been too busy lately."

Mu Xiaowan was taken aback for a moment, then laughed: "Junbai, what's wrong? Mr. Liu and I are just business partners. We invested in this hotel together, so I've been quite busy lately."

Chu Junbai frowned, a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice: "Partner? I don't think Liu Weiguo is that insignificant."

Mu Xiaowan sensed the jealousy in his words and couldn't help but laugh: "Captain Chu, are you jealous?"

Chu Junbai's face darkened, but he remained stubborn, "Why would I be jealous? I just think your relationship is a bit too intimate."

Mu Xiaowan sighed, her tone tinged with helplessness: "You're overthinking it. Mr. Liu and I are just business partners. He's helped me a lot, which is why we often discuss work together."

Chu Junbai remained silent for a moment, but the agitation in his heart did not lessen at all. He knew he shouldn't doubt Mu Xiaowan, but the scene before him made it impossible for him to calm down.

"Xiao Wan, I'm sick. I haven't been feeling well these past few days." Chu Junbai's voice was low and hoarse. He tried his best to appear weak, but he looked strong no matter how you looked at him.

"Where do you feel unwell? Have you been to the hospital? Why don't you go to the hospital first and I'll come over when I'm done with my work?"

Faced with this man who unconditionally sidened with her, Mu Xiaowan couldn't bring herself to ignore him.

"No, you need to support me. I don't know if I have heatstroke, but my legs are weak."

Mu Xiaowan saw that he was about to kneel down and quickly helped him up.

"Chu Junbai!"

Mu Xiaowan had no choice but to ask Liu Weiguo for leave.

"Mr. Liu, I've taken Chu Junbai home; he's not feeling well. Please look after things here; I'll come back tomorrow."

Liu Weiguo had been paying close attention to the situation, and he could naturally tell whether Chu Junbai was truly ill or faking it.

Unexpectedly, even the usually calm and composed Captain Chu felt a sense of crisis.

It seems his further progress has been very successful.

He was ultimately unsure about Mu Xiaowan's situation.

For now, it's better to cooperate.

Mu Xiaowan didn't have time to think it through. She really thought Chu Junbai was sick. She helped him sit in the passenger seat, then closed the car door and went around to the driver's side to get in.

She was in such a hurry that she didn't see Chu Junbai's hand hanging in mid-air, or his mouth half-open.

When Chu Junbai saw that Mu Xiaowan had settled him in the passenger seat, he wanted to call out to the woman, saying that he was feeling better and that he would drive.

But when he saw Mu Xiaowan skillfully climb into the driver's seat, start the car, press the clutch, and shift gears with practiced ease, just like an experienced driver, he was so surprised he couldn't close his mouth.

But he dared not shout at this moment. The car was already moving, and if he suddenly opened his mouth and startled Mu Xiaowan, it would be no joke.

"Where are you going?" Chu Junbai asked, seeing that it wasn't the way home.

"I'll take you to the hospital. If you're not feeling well, you must go to the hospital. Don't wait until it's too late to see a doctor."

"I think it's just heatstroke. I'll go back and drink some mung bean water, and I'll be fine. My immune system is so strong, how can a grown man go to the hospital so easily?"

"you sure?"

"I'm sure we should go home! To the family quarters!"

Seeing that he insisted, Mu Xiaowan turned around.

If you're feeling unwell, don't hide it.

"Okay, I promise."

Seeing that Mu Xiaowan cared about him, Chu Junbai felt a little smug.

When Mu Xiaowan drove her car through the gate, the two soldiers on guard stared blankly at the car after saluting, forgetting to lower their hands.

Not only them, but everyone they met on the way was also surprised by how different it was.

"Did you see that just now? Wasn't it Captain Chu's wife driving? Captain Chu didn't drive at all?"

"I saw it too!"

"This is too shocking! Captain Chu's wife is truly omnipotent. Does this mean he's living off her?"

"Yes, if a woman does what a man does, then he's living off his wife."

Chu Junbai was enjoying himself in the passenger seat, little did he know that because of this moment of enjoyment, these guys were saying he was a kept man.

However, he did not feel ashamed at all; on the contrary, he felt honored.

His wife is capable; he's just lucky.

Of course, he wouldn't enslave his wife.

It's fine to just take it out and show it off occasionally.

The car drove into the residential building, which caused an even bigger uproar.

A group of women were enjoying the shade under a tree.

Everyone was incredibly surprised to see Mu Xiaowan drive back.

Mu Xiaowan got out of the car and saw their expressions, then mechanically turned her head to look at Chu Junbai.

Oh no, in her haste she forgot that he couldn't drive in this day and age.
