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

After finishing their meal, everyone went about their own business.

Chu Junbai has also left, only Mu Xiaowan remains in Chu Shaoqing's room.

Bai Jiao'e became curious about why Mu Xiaowan was getting so close to Chu Shaoqing and why she was staying in his room the whole time.

She wanted to see what the two of them were doing, and at the same time, she was afraid that Mu Xiaowan would provoke her son, so she went in to take a look under the pretense of delivering water.

Seeing that Chu Shaoqing had suddenly become more ambitious, Bai Jiao'e was very pleased and became more polite to Mu Xiaowan.

Bai Jiao'e thought Mu Xiaowan had never seen a tape recorder before and was staying because she was curious.

She quickly seized the opportunity to get closer to Mu Xiaowan and talked for a long time about the Chu family.

He also implied, intentionally or unintentionally, that Jiang Yinglan was rather difficult to get along with.

Ultimately, the goal was for Mu Xiaowan to develop a good relationship with her.

Seeing that Mu Xiaowan seemed not to understand and did not give her a response, she gave up.

A short while later, Jiang Yinglan called looking for Mu Xiaowan.

Mu Xiaowan answered the phone and asked, "Mom, I'll be back soon. Is there something you need?"

“When we came back just now, we ran into a neighbor. The neighbor said that a few people claiming to be your family members came looking for you, but the security guard stopped them from coming in. Do you want to go and see them?”

Mu Xiaowan was still wondering if He Yongsheng had sent the person back. Unexpectedly, he still wouldn't give up.

It seems she'll have to make a trip today.

After hanging up the phone, Mu Xiaowan told Chu Shaoqing and then left.

There weren't any of those demanding relatives at the gate; they must have gone home because of the freezing weather. That's why they didn't run into my mother-in-law and the others when they came back.

Mu Xiaowan assumed He Yongsheng was in the army, so she headed towards the army base.

It takes more than 40 minutes by bus to get to the military base.

We stumbled and swayed until we finally arrived at the military base, it was already past 1 a.m.

Unexpectedly, the young soldier on guard duty said that He Yongsheng was on leave and not in the army.

Mu Xiaowan then headed towards the bus stop.

The bus stop is a six or seven-minute walk from the military base.

At that moment, a jeep slowly drove out of the military base gate.

There were two people in the car. The man driving saw the bright red car walking by the roadside, raised an eyebrow, and slowed down as he passed the girl, glancing out the window.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Chu Junbai felt the car slow down. He looked up from his folder, glanced at his friend, and seeing him staring out the window, said, "What are you looking at? You're so distracted, you can't even drive properly. We'll drive into a ditch later."

He looked outside as he spoke.

Outside the car window.

A girl wearing a long red down jacket, with her hands in her pockets and a black scarf around her neck, had a strap around her neck that was somewhat incongruous, suspending her arm.

Her beautiful features were now red from the cold. She looked very cold and wished she could tuck her whole head into her scarf. The cold wind was blowing her bangs.

Her features became clearer.

Why is she here?

Seeing this vibrant red in this desolate place is truly stunning.

"I wonder which soldier's family member she is. She's dressed quite expensively, so her family must be very wealthy. Is she from the cultural troupe? She looks injured."

Ye Jincheng glanced at Chu Junbai and was somewhat surprised to see him staring intently at the little girl.

This was the first time he had ever seen Chu Junbai stare at a female creature for so long. He said, "I must say, the young lady is quite pretty. She has a serene and tranquil air about her, like the beauty of a peaceful life."

Suddenly, Chu Junbai threw the folder in front of the windshield.

Ye Jincheng shrank back in fright.

"parking!"

"Why did you park the car?" Ye Jincheng asked suspiciously. Why was this person acting so strangely today?

Chu Junbai glanced at Ye Jincheng.

Ye Jincheng immediately braked.

He complained, "How come someone as detached as you has fallen for that red flower? Don't forget you're already married. You didn't actually fall in love with her at first sight, did you?"

Before Ye Jincheng could finish speaking, Chu Junbai had already opened the car door and jumped out.

"Hey, hey, you're serious!"

Ye Jincheng peeked out, his gaze following Chu Junbai.

Mu Xiaowan was so cold she didn't want to lift her head until a tall figure blocked her way.

She looked up and saw a familiar and handsome face.

Chu Junbai had sharp, angular features and thick, striking eyebrows. His eyes, like brilliant, cold stars in the night sky, gleamed with a sharp light that seemed to see through everything, and he was looking down at her from above.

Mu Xiaowan never expected to run into Chu Junbai here.

What a darn coincidence!

"What are you doing here?"

“I heard from your mother that my mother and her family had been to our house, but were stopped at the gate by the security guard. They were staying at He Yongsheng's place, so I came over, but it turns out He Yongsheng isn't here at all; he's on vacation.”

Chu Junbai glanced at Mu Xiaowan; it seemed she was unaware that He Yongsheng was renting a house outside.

But it probably doesn't matter to her now.

He didn't hide anything, saying, "He Yongsheng rented a house outside."

However, Mu Xiaowan didn't even show a surprised expression. Instead, she calmly asked, "Do you know where it is?"

"I'm heading back to the city, get on the bus first."

Ye Jincheng was extremely surprised. Why did Chu Junbai bring that girl back?

He's acting really strange today.

"This is my comrade-in-arms, Ye Jincheng."

Ye Jincheng added, "To be precise, he was a former comrade-in-arms; I've now retired from the military."

Mu Xiaowan smiled slightly. "Hello, my name is Mu Xiaowan."

"I heard from Captain Chu that you are also going back to the city. I'd like to hitch a ride with you. I'm sorry to trouble you."

Mu Xiaowan was polite and courteous, showing no trace of the way she had when she had falsely accused Chu Junbai.

This led Chu Junbai to believe that the two people before and after were not the same person at all.

Mu Xiaowan would never reveal her relationship with Chu Junbai unless Chu Junbai made a statement.

Seeing that she didn't explain their relationship, Chu Junbai didn't say anything more. After all, they had a contractual relationship, so there was no need to be so intimate. Therefore, he didn't explain.

Unaware of the situation, Ye Jincheng glanced at Chu Junbai and then looked at Mu Xiaowan in the rearview mirror.

These two seem unusual. You can't get anything out of Chu Junbai, but you might be able to get something out of this girl.

"Miss Xiaowan, where are you from? Are you here to visit relatives?"

"I'm looking for someone!"

“I used to be in this unit too, I know the people here very well. Tell me your name, and I can help you find them.”

Chu Junbai gave Ye Jincheng a cold glance.

Ye Jincheng didn't pay any attention to his gaze.

Mu Xiaowan's bright eyes, like a clear lake, were slightly curved at this moment. "I'm looking for He Yongsheng, but the security guard said he's not here."

"Oh, He Yongsheng? What do you want with him? Do you know each other?"

Chu Junbai felt somewhat powerless.

When did he become so talkative?

Mu Xiaowan saw that Chu Junbai had no intention of stopping her.

She replied, "He is my sister-in-law's brother. My mom and the others came over, so I came to look for him."

"Oh, so you're relatives like that."

"Look ahead and concentrate on driving."

Chu Junbai kicked Ye Jincheng directly.

As soon as they entered the city, Chu Junbai ordered the car to stop, quickly got out, opened the driver's side door, and pulled Ye Jincheng out.
